toe line
Not absolutely sure, but I think your own suggestion would probably be fine! PS: Try googling 'toe line' in combination with 'embankment', for example.
Kluwer Woordenboek Bouw:
1. inside emabnkment toe = teen (dijk)
2. toe of the dam = teen van de dam
http://www.ipenz.org.nz/nzsold/guide001.pdf
Seepage emerging from the downstream slope (i.e. above the **toe line**), tends to saturate the surrounding material.
http://www.vetiver.org/TVN_IVC2/CP-3-1.PDF
Three lines of coconut (seedlings) at the lower part of the outer slope, at 5-m spacing from
plant to plant and 2.5 m from row to row using the staggering method to resist waves in the
long run. Date and palmyra are suggested for the inner slope **toe line**.
http://www.technocad.co.za/r-mate.htm
Calculation and the drawing of the road **toe line** as well as other template lines as "strings" is performed.
