Shoring (Shoring System): a structure that is built or put in place to support the sides of an excavation and designed to prevent cave-ins. Sides: See Faces. Sloping (Sloping System): sloping the sides of the excavation away from the excavation to protect employees from cave-ins.
The grade of the hillside, the type of permanent retaining wall that is designed and the available access for equipment also need to be taken into consideration. Examples of shoring mechanisms that are commonly used to shore excavated ground are: soldier pile and lagging, soil nails & shotcrete, and pressure grouting.
