Well, although this isnt where I read it, according to wikipedia "Cut-and-cover is a simple method of construction for shallow tunnels where a trench is excavated and roofed over. Strong supporting beams are necessary to avoid the danger of the tunnel collapsing." I suspect your definition is from the MTA's website. While decking is irrellevant to the style of construction, it is a way to make cut and cover more livable when the line is being constructed.
