gravel, and water) and requires relatively small amounts
of cement and reinforcing steel.
In addition, a lower grade skilled labor is only required for
construction."

To keep Finished Grade as closed to Natural Grade as possible.
The amount of CUT & FILL is targeted to be balanced over the
site except for the 2m Elevated Road & Community Center 3m.
