RISK OF SOIL & ROCK SLIDING
• Study the soil characteristics such as its
load bearing strength, angle of repose for
soil required etc.
• Collect information about underground
utilities from relevant sources.
• Do not keep excavated earth or any
other load just at the edge of excavation.
• Resort to step cutting where chances of
subsidence are more.
• Provision of safe means of access &
egress to workers.
• Barricade the excavated pit and display
