cut and fill

片 is used for pairs such as "片目のない猫" (a one-eyed cat). Here is talking about the cut and fill pairing. I would translate it as "alternating cut and fill", or just "cut and fill", "cut and fill pair". Avoid using "a half-cut and half-bank" as this is a direct translation from Japanese.

cut and fillは、切り盛りで、凹凸のある土地の低い所に盛土をして平坦にすることです。
片切り片盛りは、平坦にすることではありません。
