Able Safety Consulting - 1 Hour Excavations

Excavations Safety Training

What is 1 Hour Excavation Training? Excavations are the process of moving earth or other materials using tools, equipment, or explosives. Excavation is used during construction in order to create building foundations and is an important part of the construction process. Learning about the different techniques and terminology used in excavations such as trenching, wall shafts, and underpinning is knowledge that most construction workers and supervisors should pursue.
