Rolling Strut Trench Box

The Rolling Strut Trench Box has been developed to allow greater access for the installation of large diameter pipes, box culverts or long pipes whilst maintaining parallel plates during installation to minimise reinstatement costs.

  • High load capacity
  • Rolling struts enable parallel plate movement which in turn enables easy installation and removal with minimal ground settlement.
  • Moveable struts allow maximum access for installation of long pipes and good visibility for the operator.
  • Vertical strut clearances of up to 3.1m enables installation of large diameter pipes or culverts.
  • Plates can be pushed down to different invert levels for dual stepped pipes.
