Mini and Standard Trench Box 3D Strut Image

Trench boxes are generally the first choice for the rapid shoring of trench runs due to the speed and simplicity of installation. They are generally suitable for use in trenches up to 5m wide x 6m deep in reasonable ground conditions. They are not recommended in unmanaged, waterlogged ground. They are used in multiples to continuously support a length of trench.
