Trench Support System
A trench support system (fig.1, 1) comprises a plurality of frames 2(a, b, etc), each comprising uprights and a transverse limb extended between the uprights. The frames are spaced apart along the trench and the first uprights 3a and 3b of a first and second frame are connected by a first lower strut 6 and upper strut 7, and the second uprights of the first and second frame are connected by a second lower and upper strut. The support system further comprises first and second panels 10, 11, connected between the first and second upper and lower struts, wherein each panel is formed of a fabric. The transverse limbs may be integral with the uprights, the struts may be releasable, and the fabric panel may be under tension. The system may be part of a kit and for use in military applications.
