close sheathing

Consists of planks placed side by side along a continuous frame. Its use is to prevent local crumbling of less compacted soils. Since crevices can exist between planks, it should not be used with fine silts or liquid soils, which can seep through these cracks. Compare: skeleton sheathing; tight sheathing.
