Importance of Shoring and trench shielding. Heavy Vehicle, crane should be placed 2m or 6.5 feet from the edge of the excavation. Condition- area where excavation is going on shouldn't be in wet condition. Loose soil without compaction without sport is also the major reason of this accident Our Website: https://lnkd.in/eWP7-9tY #rule54321 #Loadcalculation #zeroharm #safetyfirst #incident #constructionsafety #safetyandhealth #shoring #riskmanagement

Protect yourself from trench collapses. Trench boxes offer a vital safety solution for excavations. This guide dives into the various trench box materials and helps you select the perfect fit for your project. #TrenchSafetyWeek https://ow.ly/9wCJ50SjfXx

Wondering about the different types of protective systems for trenches? Let’s break it down! There are four key types: 1️⃣ Benching: Creating horizontal levels or steps in the trench walls, except on type C soil. 2️⃣ Sloping: Angling the trench walls away from the excavation site. 3️⃣ Shoring: Installing support systems to prevent soil movement. 4️⃣ Shielding: Using protective structures to guard against cave-ins. Understanding these protective measures is essential for keeping our teams safe during trenching operations. #BuildingColoradosFuture #NationalTrenchSafetyStandDownWeek

Traditional methods require digging long, deep trenches to access and replace pipes, which can compromise the integrity of nearby structures, roads, and landscapes. Trenchless methods need only small access holes at key points, significantly reducing the risk to surrounding structures.

In trenches 5ft deep or greater, a protection system involves 3 S’s: Sloping, shoring and shielding - Sloping involves cutting back the trench wall at an angle inclined away from the excavation. - Shoring requires installing aluminum hydraulic or other types of supports to prevent soil movement and cave-ins. - Shielding protects workers by using trench boxes or other types of supports to prevent soil cave-ins. #SPSNE #Trenching #Excavation #ConstructionSafety
