cut from profile-forming/-earthworking

Not sure about the EN, but you get the idea.

Autrement dit, ce qui est déblayé pour former le "profil" (coupe transversale de l'ouvrage futur) doit servir pour remblayer.

A préciser s'il venait à l'idée de certains de laisser des montagnes de déblais à côté de l'ouvrage pour aller chercher du remblai à 500 km.

In civil engineering, a profile consists of a plotted line which indicates grades and distances (and typically depths of cut and/or elevations of fill) for excavation and grading work.

spoil within the excavation

Hard to be sure without knowing what exactly they are constructing/excavating. However, it seems like shifting suitable spoil from one part of the working area to another.
