Trench Box Certificates
(Tabulated Data)
A protective system is a method of protecting employees from cave-ins, from material that could fall or roll from an excavation, or from the collapse of adjacent structures. Protective systems include support systems, sloping and benching systems, shield systems, and other systems that provide necessary protection. Trench Box Certificates (Tabulated Data) are tables and charts approved by a registered professional engineer and used to design and construct a protective system.
