English

Subject field(s)
  • Earthmoving
DEF

The marking of the ground surface by pegs or stakes at points where earthworks in cut or fill meet it.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Terrassement
CONT

La pose de points de niveau à l'intérieur du périmètre de terrassement peut déboucher sur des difficultés de surveillance de ces points cotés qui risquent de disparaître... avec les déblais. Aussi est-il prudent de les matérialiser en dehors des fouilles par des repères sur lesquels les visées successives permettront d'apprécier l'avancement des travaux.
