work permit/s.
5.3 Shoring shall only be performed in the presence of GMDSB personnel.
5.4 Shoring shall be performed when the pipeline has been exposed, the open trench is more than 1.5
meter deep and as instructed by GMDSB
5.5 Shoring shall be installed at a minimum distance of 1.0 meter from the pipeline.
5.6 The equipment and machinery used for the installation of shoring must be in good working
condition. All machinery shall be placed away from the buried pipeline. If there is no other area
to place the machinery, steel plate shall be used as a platform for the machinery to be placed
upon. Spark arrestor shall be used for the machinery. The machine operator must be competent
and experience person for the purpose of shoring installation.
5.7 Shoring can be via the following method:-
i. I-beam with steel plate
5.8 When driving the sheet pile into the ground, the sheet pile shall be driven at least 2/3 of its length
buried in the ground. ACE shall ensure that there will be no excessive vibration induced to
GMDSB pipeline that can jeopardize the integrity and safety of the pipeline and personnel
working within the area. Sheet pile shall be installed with interlocking between one another. ACE
shall inspect the sheet pile arrangement and prove to GMDSB that the sheet pile could hold the
ground from collapsing. (If necessary)
5.9 ACE shall ensure that all personnel involved in installing the sheet pile are experienced and
competent. ACE shall ensure that dedicated signal man is available for the activities.
5.10 Should the full sheet pile could not be installed due to whatever reason, ACE will propose to

as above but within a predetermined spacing and vertical offset between one another and ½’’
steel plate will be placed in between the sheet pile / I-beam all the way until it rest on the ground.
