Title: Earthworks - Web Pages for Road Design
Url: https://dgtoll.webspace.durham.ac.uk/
Publisher: University of Durham
Description: The process of earthworks is to excavate the existing land to a suitable level so that road construction may begin. The earthworks can take the form of either excavation in the form of cuts or the construction of embankments to carry an elevated highway. Normally in a road design project, both will be necessary and movement of earth from one part of the site to the next will be necessary. This should be done with as little waste created or as little extra material required as disposal or collection is expensive.
