Use of construction machinery in the installation phase
Various construction devices may be used to fill the trenches. Given the additional dynamic loads they
cause, compaction equipment must not be driven directly over the infiltration ditch elements and compac-
tion equipment with activated vibration motors must not be taken over the area.
By way of example, Table 6 shows the earth covering needed for various compaction equipment when
using a split with a friction angle of
