excavation reinforcements
Explanation:
non è stato precisato di che scavi si tratta

http://www.ciop.pl/6742.html
Excavations with vertical walls must have reinforcements of walls through expansion and support. The type of reinforcement used depends on the size of the excavation, the type of land and the duration for which the excavation must remain. The reinforcement of the walls to a depth of 4 m is installed as typical reinforcements on condition that no loading is anticipated in the immediate vicinity caused by structures, means of transport, stored materials, excavated materials, etc.
