Dig initial pilot cut (2-3’) and stage one leg of the Pro-Brace Hydraulic Rams. If using multiple levels of rams, they may be stacked upon each other to speed up installation time.*
Assemble initial ram and extensions. If using multiple levels of rams, assemble the rams and extensions and stack on top.
With top level assembled, begin placement of excavation supports systems.
With all supports installed, connect the top level of the Pro-Brace to the bracing supports with Hanging Chains and pressurize system.
If using multiple levels, excavate to next ram spacing and pressurize system.* Repeat until all rings are installed and pressurized.
With all rings in place, excavate down to project depth.
*Site-specific engineering is required on all Pro-Brace projects. A Registered Professional Engineer will determine the number of braces, spacing and allowable system depth, based upon soil and jobsite conditions.
