Dear Raghu
I am not aware about any legislation for this... But what we are doing is as follows:
Movement of vehicle and heavy cranes shall be 3 feet (1Mt) away or 1.5 times the depth of excavation, whichever is greater. Where vehicles or equipment operate near excavations, the sides must be shored or braced as necessary to withstand the force exerted by the superimposed load. Also stop-logs or other substantial barricades must be installed to protect the edge of such excavations.
