English

Subject field(s)
  • Site Development
DEF

Solid ground formed by filling in a pit with hard rubble.

OBS

As opposed to "natural ground" (see record).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Aménagement du terrain
CONT

J'excepte de ce paragraphe le cas des terrains de remblai, souvent impropres à la culture, où une maigre végétation aura quelque peine à subsister. Malheureusement, ces terrains ne sont pas rares en secteur urbain et, dans ce cas, le changement de terre s'impose, augmentant largement le prix de revient de l'aménagement.

OBS

Par opposition à «terrain naturel» (voir fiche).
