2. Grading (earthworks) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grading_(earthworks)

   Section through railway track and foundation showing the sub-grade. Grading in civil engineering and landscape architectural construction is the work of ensuring a level base, or one with a specified slope, [1] for a construction work such as a foundation, the base course for a road or a railway, or landscape and garden improvements, or surface drainage.

3. Earthworks (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthworks_(engineering)

   Typical earthworks include road construction, railway beds, causeways, dams, levees, canals, and berms. Other common earthworks are land grading to reconfigure the topography of a site, or to stabilize slopes. Geofoam is a new lightweight earthworks technique used to build a bridge overpass on weak soil near Montreal.

4. Soil gradation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_Gradation

   In a design, the gradation of the in situ (on site) soil often controls the design and ground water drainage of the site. A poorly graded soil will have better drainage than a well graded soil, [2] if it is not high in clay quality. Soil is graded as either well graded or poorly graded. [3]

5. Civil drawing - Wikipedia

9. Geotechnical engineering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geotechnical_engineering

   Generally, geotechnical engineers first estimate the magnitude and location of loads to be supported before developing an investigation plan to explore the subsurface and determine the necessary soil parameters through field and lab testing. Following this, they may begin the design of an engineering foundation.
