Cut and fill is a construction technique used in earthmoving projects. It involves removing soil or rock from one area (cut) and using that material to raise another area (fill). This process helps create a level surface for building roads, foundations, or other structures. The goal of cut and fill is to balance the amount of material removed with the amount added, minimizing waste. Proper planning is essential to ensure that the site is stable and that drainage is effective. This technique is commonly used in civil engineering and landscaping projects to shape the land efficiently.
