Why is using a pile driver instead of manual excavation considered safer and more efficient? Piling is an extremely dangerous and labor-intensive job. Using machinery is safer than manual labor for several reasons. It's well-known that manual piling (referred to as manual excavation) involves harsh working environments, high labor intensity, significant risks, and low safety. Workers may be exposed to water, sand, landslides, toxic gases, and electrical shocks at any time. Safety threats, such as falling from heights and hitting objects, indicate that manual excavation is a backward construction process. In recent years, there have been several accidents in China involving manual excavation, leading to numerous casualties:
On August 6, 2008, a major safety production accident occurred in a manual excavation piling project in Nanning, resulting in significant casualties.
On July 3, 2010, a massive safety accident occurred during the piling construction process in a project in Longlin County, Baise City, leaving one person critically injured and four others seriously injured.
On September 6, 2014, a major safety production accident occurred in a project in the new Liudong District of Liuzhou City, where a worker died during a manual excavation piling investigation.
As a result, the "Notice on the Release of the 'Eleventh Five-Year' Promotion and Application and Restriction and Prohibition of Use of Technologies (First Batch)" issued by the Ministry of Construction on June 14, 2007 (Ministry of Construction No. 659), included manual excavation as a "restricted level" technology. In the long term, replacing manual labor with machines is inevitable. Well, that's the topic for today.
