Excavation Safety with Sheeting: When it comes to excavation, safety is paramount. That’s why using sheeting is crucial! Sheeting involves installing temporary barriers to prevent soil collapse, ensuring a safer work environment for everyone involved. Take a look at the ongoing project in Wolfe County, KY, where sheeting is being utilized for the new bridge on the Mountain Parkway. This project is a prime example of how proper safety measures can make a huge difference in construction sites. Stay safe and always prioritize safety first! 🛠️👷♂️
