Article R4534-26 of the French Labour Code

Underpinning of foundations may only be carried out in small sections and as and when the shoring, struts or props put in place ensure sufficient safety.
However, this requirement does not preclude the use of special procedures that provide workers with at least equivalent safety.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article R4534-26


La reprise des fondations en sous-oeuvre ne peut être exécutée que par petites portions et au fur et à mesure que les blindages, les étrésillons ou les étais mis en place assurent une sécurité suffisante.
Toutefois, cette prescription ne fait pas obstacle à l’emploi de procédés particuliers assurant aux travailleurs une sécurité au moins équivalente.
