| An established civil and drainage
business, specialising in the supply of reticulated sewers to country
towns, working in existing backyards or restricted locations, saw the
need for an ultra light shoring system to suit the new range of mini
excavators released onto the market. These mini excavators, being in the 2 to 7 tonne range, can excavate to around 4.0 metres in depth, but only have a limited safe lifting capacity of less than 500kg. The challenge was to develop a strong shoring system, that met the requirements of Australian, American, British and European standards and regulations, and weighed less than 500kgs. The system was required to be: modular, easy to handle, assemble, transport, and suitable to be lifted into position by the smallest of excavators. The Lite Guard trench shield was designed using structural grade aluminium, chosen for its strength to weight ratio. Other products were designed to meet the needs of different types of excavations eg. The Super Lite Guard. Access Chamber Units and LiteShore Soldier Sets. Based in Dandenong Victoria, Australia, Liteguard supplies customers throughout Australia, New Zealand, Europe, United Kingdom and Ireland. |
