One of the most useful, cheapest, and quickest ways of gaining access to formations for inspection and sampling is by trial pit or trench. In the simplest form, the excavations are hand dug with a spade. Deeper excavations may be made by machine.... The advantages of using trial trenches are many. The soil can be inspected in an in situ state, although some careful hand excavation of the sides of the machine excavated trench may be necessary... Bulk, block, or driven tube samples can be taken from the sides or floor of the trench.  4, record 1, English, - trial%20trench

Test trenches. Test trenches can be used to perform the same function as test pits but offer one distinct advantage, i.e., trenches provide a continuous exposure of the continuity and character of the subsurface material along a given line or section.  5, record 1, English, - trial%20trench

... Today we don not often call the locomotive an "iron horse, "nor do we call the engine-house or roundhouse in which locomotives are kept a stable, but the places in the roundhouse where the locomotives are kept are still called "stalls, "and the roundhouse men who look after the locomotives and take tem in and out of their "stall" are still called "hostlers. "When a locomotive finishes its run, it is usually taken to an engine terminal. At the terminal is the roundhouse, where engines are cleaned and given light or "running" repairs, and made ready for their next runs. The engine terminal also includes a coaling station, a water tank, a sand house, an oil house and an ash pit... The roundhouse is a sort of locomotive garage. its name is derived from its shape. Many roundhouses are semi-circular in shape, many other form a complete circle except for one or two openings for entrance and exit tracks... Long pits between the tracks in the stalls permit inspection and repair of locomotives from underneath...  2, record 2, English, - roundhouse

When the scale floor indicates that the appropriate garner is empty, the valve at the bottom of the unloading pit is activated. The grain discharges onto a conveyor belt and is transferred to the boot of the receiving leg. En route it passes under a large electro magnet which removes all ferrous metal from the grain. An automatic sampler, operating under the supervision of the Grain Commission's Inspection Division, takes a representative sample of each carload before it reaches the receiving leg.  2, record 3, English, - garner

Dès que le préposé à la bascule signale qu'une trémie de réception est disponible, on actionne la vanne au fond de la fosse de déchargement. Le grain se déverse sur une bande transporteuse et s'achemine jusqu'au pied de l'élévateur en passant, en cours de route, sous un puissant électro-aimant qui extrait toutes les particules métalliques. Une sonde automatique fonctionnant sous la surveillance de la division de l'inspection de la Commission canadienne des grains prélève un échantillon représentatif de chaque wagon avant son arrivée au pied de l'élévateur.  2, record 3, French, - tr%C3%A9mie%20de%20r%C3%A9ception
