Construction Projects
Most construction sites need a stable ground to
do their work on. The soil needs to be
compressed so there aren’t any pockets of air
underground that can disrupt the process.
For this to work, special construction equipment
is needed to properly compact and smooth the
ground.
It provides the necessary flat base which
provides the crucial support for
buildings, construction foundations,
pavements, roads and various other
construction structures. The process of
compaction gives the soil underneath
these supports higher resistance and
greater stability.
