Giải thích
Title 8 §1541.1 recognizes sloping/benching, shoring (supporting the walls with hydraulic or timber systems), and shielding (a trench box that protects workers if the wall fails). A trench box does not prevent a cave-in but shields workers inside it. Warning signs and PPE do not protect against the soil collapsing.
