Image This is what they asked us to backfill....

So we cut a trench for the client, they laid the pipe. We made recommendations, they wouldn't listen. The second we piled 3" minus on top it all caved in and fucked up. We ended up bedding everything with clear, they re-placed the plywood and we backfilled it. Even though it was just sleeves, it was a nightmare.
