The first and primary step involved in the excavation is to find out the extent of soil and Clearing of construction site is of unwanted bushes, weeds and plants. Setting out or ground tracing is the process of laying down the excavation lines and centre lines etc. on the ground before the excavation is started.
Read MoreA landslide is the movement of rock, earth, or debris down a slope d section of land. Landslides are caused by rain, earthquake s, volcano es, or other factors that make the slope unstable . Geologist s, scientists who study the physical formations of the Earth, sometimes describe landslides as one type of mass wasting.

Read Morelandslide, also called landslip, the movement downslope of a mass of rock, debris, earth, or soil (soil being a mixture of earth and debris). Landslides occur when gravitational and other types of shear stresses within a slope exceed the shear strength (resistance to shearing) of the materials that form the slope.. Shear stresses can be built up within a slope by a number of processes.
