TRENCHES - A trench is referred to as -a narrow excavation made below the surface of the ground in which the depth is greater than the width, where the width me�sured at the bottom is not greater than fifteen (15) feet. � 2. BENCHING SYSTEM - Benching means excav�ting the sides of,a trench to form one or a � series of horizontal level or steps, usually with vertical or near-vertical surfaces between �'� levels. �� .. � � � C�� r, � � 3. SLOPING SYSTEM - Sloping means'excavating'to form sides of a trench that are inclined away from the excavation. �- � � a� ' � ' ,, � : 4. SHIELD SYSTEM u Shields used in trenches are generally referred to as "trench boxes" �or "trench shields". Shield means a structure that is able to withstand the forces imposed on it by a cave-in and "protect workers within the structure. �� Shields =can be permanent structures or can be designed to be portable and move along as the work progresses. Shields can be either pre-manufactured or job-built in accordance with OSHA standards. � 5. SHORING SYSTEM - Shoring means a structure such as a-metal hydraulic, mechanical or timer system that supports the sides af a trench and which is designed to prevent cave-ins. Shoring systems are generally �comprised of cross-braces, vertical rails, (uprights), � horizontal rails (wales) and/or sheeting. �' . D. MEASUREMENT - Trench depth is the vertical measurement from the top of the existing � ground to the bottom of the pipe or structures. The quantity of trench safety systems shall be based on the linear fo,ot amount of trench depth greater than five (5) feet. � E.
