In the following context:

"En el precio se incluyen los procesos de formación de los posibles *caballeros*, el pago de cánones de ocupación, y todas las operaciones necesarias y costos asociados para la completa ejecución de la unidad"

Building specifications under the section excavation. I imagine it is a place to pile up material used for filling during grading operations, but I'm not sure.
