Retaining wall excavation. #hardscape #excavator #retainingwall

What happens here

The operator utilizes a mini excavator to dig into the ground, systematically creating a trench that will serve as the foundation for a wall. The excavator's bucket is filled with the excavated soil, then carefully maneuvered to precisely dump the material into the waiting bucket of a skid steer, ensuring an efficient transfer of soil from the excavation point to the transport vehicle.

Goal: To dig soil for a wall foundation and transfer it to a transport vehicle.
