Pre-engineered trench and manhole box designs published by Mabey Hire11 November 2020

Earlier this year, Mabey Hire’s team of engineers published a number project designs for low-risk groundworks schemes online.

The original 500 standard solutions featured trench sheets and bracing frames for four-sided excavations. Now, 150 new designs have been launched for Mabey Hire’s trench and manhole boxes.

The designs are intended to help reduce the turnaround time from enquiry to delivery of the equipment to site for low-risk excavations. Every scheme design has been created as a Standard Solution, as defined in BS 5975:2019 section 13:10.

Upon visiting Mabey Hire’s MyConstruct web portal, customers will be prompted to answer a series of straightforward questions about their project, such as the ground conditions, proposed dig methodology and the excavation depth. If the project is suitable for a pre-engineered solution, the customer will then be automatically provided with a groundworks scheme design best suited to their individual project, which they can instantly download or have delivered to their email. Once they are ready to progress with their project, the required equipment can be ordered via their local depot, by quoting the design reference number.

Should a groundworks project be deemed too complex or high-risk for the implementation of a standard solution, Mabey Hire’s engineers can create a bespoke temporary works design.
