Ajax est une collectivité de la région de Durham sur la rive nord du lac Ontario, située entre Pickering à l'ouest et Whitby à l'est sur les plaines argileuses plates qui définissent cette section du corridor d'expansion est de la GTA. Les sols à travers l'Ajax sont de l'argile lacustre et du till à grain fin, caractéristique de l'environnement riverain postglaciaire du lac Iroquois. Ces argiles sont parmi les sols les plus uniformes de la région de Durham, fournissant une capacité de charge prévisible pour les fondations résidentielles et commerciales standard, mais nécessitant une gestion soigneuse pendant l'excavation en raison de leurs mauvaises caractéristiques de drainage. Les hautes nappes d'eau à moins de trois à quatre mètres de la surface sont communes à la plupart des parties inférieures de la ville. Le front de mer d'Ajax sur le lac Ontario, y compris le parc Paradise et le réseau de sentiers riverains, a fait l'objet de travaux d'amélioration et de protection des rives qui créent une demande périodique pour du matériel d'aménagement paysager compact, des machines de stabilisation des rives et du matériel de construction de sentiers. La proximité de la centrale nucléaire de Pickering à l'ouest a historiquement façonné l'utilisation des terres dans la région et pourrait générer des activités de construction liées au déclassement au cours des prochaines années. La position d'Ajax le long du corridor du train GO en a fait une collectivité de banlieue desservant les travailleurs de Toronto, et la croissance résidentielle connexe a été constante et substantielle au cours des deux dernières décennies. Les nouvelles subdivisions du nord de l'Ajax, appuyées contre le bassin versant du ruisseau Duffins, nécessitent le classement, l'entretien et l'équipement de construction de routes pour plusieurs phases simultanées. La vallée du ruisseau Duffins et les milieux humides créent des contraintes de sensibilité environnementale qui façonnent les endroits où le développement peut se produire et nécessitent souvent de l'équipement spécialisé à faible impact pour travailler près du corridor naturel. Le corridor de l'autoroute 401 par l'intermédiaire d'Ajax soutient le développement commercial et industriel dans plusieurs échanges, générant une demande périodique de préparation de sites et de matériel de construction qui complète le marché résidentiel dominant.

Trenchers cut a clean, consistent trench far faster than an excavator when you need a long, uniform run. Walk-behind units handle shallow irrigation and cable work; ride-on and chain/wheel trenchers cut deeper, wider utility trenches at speed.

WHAT A TRENCHER IS USED FOR

Utility and cable trenches
Irrigation and drainage lines
Pipeline and conduit installation
Landscaping and fencing
Root and edge cutting

Match trench depth and width to the machine, and confirm ground conditions — rocky or frozen soil calls for a rock chain or a stronger machine. Many trenchers pair with a backfill blade to close the trench after, and some job sites will also want a plow attachment for cable installation without open trenching.
