A. GENERAL: This specification covers the trench safety requirements fo� all trench
excavations exceeding depth of five (5) feet in order to protect workers from cave-ins. The
requirements of this item govern all trenches for mains, manholes, vaults, service lines, and
all other appurtenances. The design for the trench safety shall be signed and sealed by a
Registered Professional Engineer licensed in Texas. �
B. STANDARDS: The latest version of the U.S. Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and
Health Administration Standards, 29 CFR Part 1926, Sub-Part P- Excavations, are hereby
made a�art of this specification and shall be the minimum goveming requirements for trenct�
safety.
C. DEFINITIONS:
1. 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 measuredt at the
bottom is not greater than fifteen (15) feet.
2. BENCHING SYSTEM - Benching means excavating the sides of a trench to form one or a
series of horizontal le�el or steps, usually with vertical or near-vertical surFaces befinreen
levels.
3. SLOPING SYSTEM - Sloping means excavating to form sides of a trench that are inclined
away from the excavation.
4. SHIELD SYSTEM - 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 of 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.
