Gravel Pit is an Attach/Defend map with some well established building locations and strategies.
Contents
Point A - Teleporter Entrance
For defending A an Engineer's first job is to drop a teleporter entrance. Simply dropping the entrance after stepping outside the door would work; however, it's easy to destroy by enemy Snipers or solders. A safer location is behind the ramp.
Gravel Pit Point A - Teleporter Entrance
Point A - Pick Up Metal
Don't make the mistake of going back to the spawn for metal...there's metal on the way to the point if you go through the corridor on the right.
As you enter the Point A area there is 100 Metal just to the left of the middle hut.
Gravel Pit Point A - 100 Metal
Point A - Build a Dispenser
Your Metal should now be back up to 200...first task is to build a Dispenser. There's two imporant locations. One is at the rocks where you picked up the previous 100 Metal. It can be used to stand on while building and repairing a forward sentry position.
Gravel Pit Point A - Dispenser at Rocks
And the other safer location is in the far hut. Snipers cannot target the Dispenser here.

Point A - Build a Sentry
Once you drop your Dispenser you need to get the 100 Metal just outside the point and build a Sentry Gun. One location is shown in the above image on the rocks. This is a good location because the sentry can auto-trigger on any enemy exiting their spawn as shown in the following two images.

The next location is on the hut in the middle...run and jump from the point onto its roof. This sentry must be wrangled in order to be effective because it cannot auto-trigger on enemies as they leave the spawn, so soldiers and Snipers can easily take it out if it's left on automatic.
Gravel Pit Point A - Sentry at Rocks...View Right
The last location is just outside the point...near the 100 Metal...anywhere in that area is fine.
Point A - Base on Roof
One final sentry location which is sometimes fun, but difficult to pull off is to build on the roof of Point A. It requires the Wrangler and is very time consuming because it requires building a level 3 sentry on the ground then rocket jumping to the roof.
Gravel Pit Point A - Sentry used to rocket jump to roof
The method for rocket jumping with a sentry is to stand on top of it by Crouch-Jumping...point the sentry down to the ground, then fire a rocket.

Once you are up there you can built a Dispenser, teleporter exit, and Sentry Gun.
