What is definition excavating?

Excavating is the process of removing earth, rock, or other materials from a site in order to create a hole, trench, or other cavity in the ground. Excavating is often done for construction, mining, or archaeology purposes. It involves using heavy machinery such as bulldozers, excavators, and backhoes to dig and move earth and materials. Excavating may also involve the use of hand tools such as shovels, picks, and axes, depending on the size and nature of the project. Excavating requires careful planning and coordination with other construction activities to ensure safety and efficiency on the job site.
