Norwegian term or phrase: avrette med finere masse
Hi, I'm having difficulty finding the correct English for this. It's part of a job safety analysis chart, the entry being under ""measures" referring to work on uneven terrain and to prevent injuries from falling. It appears as follows, thanks for your help!


Vurdere om det skal lages til midlertidig trapp eller avrettes med bedre/finere masser.

level off with suitable material
Explanation:
"bedre/finere" translates as 'better/finer(thinner)', but here I would use 'suitable'.
The aim is to smooth out the approach to the works by filling in the holes and gaps.
