DC's Civil War Earthworks (English)
In military terms, earthworks refer to fortifications constructed from dirt... Each of the forts built to protect the nation’s capital was unique, while following a standard procedure for construction. By the time a fort was completed it was composed of walls that were made of dirt shoveled into berms. (English)

Fort Reno (English)
Originally rather small, Fort Reno was enlarged and strengthened with an advanced battery 300 yards north from the highest ridge, across from what is now Fessenden Street and along 39th Street. This advanced battery had eight 12-pounder guns and a magazine, a covered walkway connected it to the main fort to the south. A double line of rifle trenches was added to strengthen the position.
