Tunneling and Trenching

Tunneling and trenching are excavation techniques used in construction and engineering. Tunneling involves creating underground passages, often for transportation (like subways) or utilities (like water pipelines). It's done using specialized machinery and can be complex due to geological conditions. Trenching, on the other hand, involves digging long, narrow ditches at or near the surface, typically for installing utilities such as cables and pipes. While tunneling buries projects deep underground, trenching is more shallow and direct. Both methods require careful planning to ensure safety and minimize environmental impact.
