In one embodiment, as shown, a twisted metal structure 2 coated with plastics also has two wires 3 incorporated in manufacture. In another embodiment, two longitudinal strips (5) (Fig. 2, not shown) are included in a welded plastics lattice (4). When the shovel of a mechanical excavator ruptures the article pieces of the article structure are elongated and extend through the trench wall to give a visible mark of the pipe or cable position. |
