Benching is a crucial step in preparing uneven or rocky terrains for transmission line and civil construction projects. At Powerway Enterprises LLC, we specialize in designing and executing safe benching solutions that prevent soil or rock collapse while creating stable platforms for further construction activities.
Why Benching is Important
Transmission line routes often pass through mountainous, hilly, or unstable areas where natural slopes pose significant risks. Without proper treatment, these slopes can cause landslides, soil erosion, or foundation failures. Benching addresses these challenges by creating horizontal steps (benches), which:
-
Improve slope stability
-
Prevent soil or rock slides
-
Provide safe working platforms for foundation and tower erection
-
Ensure long-term safety and sustainability of the structure
Our Approach
We follow internationally recognized standards and OETC safety guidelines in every benching project. Our team of experienced engineers and civil supervisors carefully assesses the geological conditions of each site. Based on this analysis, we design benching layouts that are tailored to the terrain.
Using advanced machinery and skilled manpower, we create benches with precision, ensuring the correct slope angle, depth, and stability. For rocky terrains, we employ controlled excavation techniques to prevent unnecessary damage to surrounding areas.
Safety & Quality Assurance
At Powerway Enterprises LLC, safety is always the top priority. Benching works are carried out with protective measures to safeguard both workers and equipment. We ensure that all benches are inspected and tested for stability before moving forward with tower foundations or access road development.
