M4: Pile Cut-off level is the actual level at which the piles below pier are
made to be of the same level. The concrete of pile is cut-off at the
specified level (given in the specifications or drawings usually around 75
mm) while the steel is kept projected in-to the pile cap to make an effective
bond
