Urban Foundation Engineering: 1.6 TCR = 56% of Foundation digging (i.e., excavation) BLS 2.8 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Urban Foundation Engineering safety composite

Urban Foundation Engineering scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 69% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 42%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
