What SH means
SH is a CIDB class of work meaning Landscaping and irrigation. Soft and hard landscaping, planting, irrigation systems and grounds establishment.
On a tender you will usually see the grade and class written together. A requirement of 6SH means Grade 6 in the Landscaping and irrigation class. You are graded separately in each class you register for, so you can hold a high grade in one class and a low grade in another.
