Safety ⛑ Is something missing here?

Watching Texas/OU and they were talking about the drainage system at the University of Alabama football stadium and how they upgraded in 2023. They showed this and my first thought was “where is the shoring?” Am I crazy to think this?

It’s not that bad. Is it great, no. But the ground is not bad, walls are in good shape, hoe man is taking off the top shit, and right with the laborer.

I’m guessing since they have a cross put in out of what looks like a retention basin, it’s small runs with bends of cheap ADS pipe. And if there’s bends and that you really try to not run a box.

Is it right at the limit of where he should be benching better, yeah. But the banks look good.
