This includes leveling pad, reinforced fill placement, monitoring of compaction, reinforcing elements placement, placement of subsequent facing courses.</p><p><strong>Accuracy and Precision </strong></p><p>The checklist provides general guidelines.

However, the detailed steps and analysis is controlled by certain methods requirements and tolerance.</p></p>
