Overview

All too often, following one of TrenchSafety's training classes about working safely in trenches and excavations, someone from the audience will come up to the instructor. They want to talk about a cave-in that happened on a job site where they were working that resulted in a serious injury . . . or a death. In all the stories, the effect is profound. Friends lost. Families shattered. The sights and sounds permanently burned into their memories. It was all so sudden. And there was nothing I could do, they always say. But such incidents don't have to happen. Trenching and excavation work can be done safely. The tools and techniques to avoid injury and death are readily available. In this book you learn about those tools and techniques. Plus so much more: The Competent Person. How to evaluate the soil you're working in. OSHA's standards. The Manufacturer's Tabulated Data. The 5-foot Rule. When to use a Registered Professional Engineer. And more. Save lives. Reduce your costs. And work more efficiently. Are there three more important reasons to work safely in trenches and excavations?
