why did the french and british dug up trenches?To provide cover from view & fire of the enemy.
Protection from shrapnel and bullets.
3 men dig 6 trenches in 4 days==> each man digs (6/3) = 2 trenches in 4 days==> each man digs (4/2) = 1/2 trench per day.==> Given 4 men, you get (4 x 1/2) = 2 trenches per day.==> It takes them (24/2) = 12 days to dig 24 trenches.
I'm asuming it was a combination of luck and both sides digging at the same time.
the trenches were not easy to build simply because it took months and months to dig and lay it all out because they wanted the trenches to go for miles and miles on end. >.<
with trenching spades if they didn't dig quick enough they risked being shot

Fox holes were not in the trenches. If you were caught in the open when an enemy barrage or bombardment came in you were in trouble. Your only chance would be to dig a hole big enough to get your body down below ground level very quickly, this is a fox hole. Often the only thing to dig with is a bayonet, it does not take as long as you think. Believe me, its amazing how quick you can do it when somebody is trying to kill you.
They dug trenches to protect themselves from the weapons of the enemy. Turks vs. British
