Excavation works Explanation: Excavation is unearthing/digging and in contracts mostly used as Excavation works. Butsecond "volume creux"may be to unearth /excavate volumes, in fact such jobs made( or subcontracted to others ) on the basis of volume works, That is they are paid on the basis of cubic meters they removed/unearthed. it seems to indicate the same thing . perhaps Cubic/ cubage works |
