EARTHMOVING & CONSTRUCTION VEHICLES

1. BULLDOZER

The bulldozer is among the more


well known and widely used 
construction equipment.
The metal blade is capable  of
driving a variety of materials,
including waste, sand, and dirt.
The Bulldozers are equipment 
which are typically
used to cut and push
material across short
distances.
2. BACKHOE LOADER

Backhoes are similar
to tractors in appearance, h
owever, they are much
unique. It is used to
move boulders, gravels,
and rocks, as well as
to move
dirt and push topsoil
into position.
3. EXCAVATOR

The bucket, cab, dipper,
and boom mounted on a
moving platform make up
an excavator. A house
is constructed on top of
a tracked or wheeled
undercarriage.
For excavating
holes, foundations, as well
as trenches, excavators 
are utilized.
4. DRUM ROLLER

The drum
rollers are being used
to compress asphalt, dirt, as
well as other lightweight
materials. Generally,
this equipment is found
at road construction spots.
The smooth rollers and Pad
foot rollers are the
two types of drum rollers.
5. VIBRATORY
COMPACTOR

If the soil is not compacted


properly, the foundation may
erode, resulting in
pipe breakage, leaks, as well
as slab cracks. Compactor is
extremely crucial
construction equipment for soil
compaction. The compactor
is essential construction
equipment, regardless of
the size of the project.
6. TELESCOPIC
HANDLER

In the construction and mining
sectors, tele handlers are among
the highly versatile kinds of
hydraulic lifting machinery.
To manage a variety of hoisting
tasks, the equipment has a
lifting attachment that
is connected with a telescoping
boom.
7. SCRAPERS

A scraper can move dirt and


aggregates quickly around a
construction site and is used
primarily for digging and
leveling large areas of land.
Scrapers are large heavy
equipment designed for open
areas, where they can run at high
speeds for cut and fill operations.
Large self-propelled scrapers are
called motor scrapers. There are
also smaller scrapers, called pull
scrapers, that are pulled behind
another vehicle.
8. MOTOR GRADER

A motor grader is being used to


set final grades on earth moving
construction projects as well as
is frequently
utilized to maintain unpaved
roadways. The road grader
blade is positioned below the
frames and is operated by
a hydraulic system that
enables numerous, precise
adjustments.
9. HAULER

An  hauler, as with an articulated


truck, is built with a pivot joint
to enhance movement. The joint
is perfect for most structural
builds since it can
carry enormous
weights around tight curves. The
dump truck contains a
driver’s control hub as well as
a material pail in which
the loads will be conveyed.
10. DUMP TRUCK

An off–highway truck is designed to
resist rough surroundings.
The massive wheels and deep
treads of this heavy–duty dump
truck enable it to go off-road and
assist construction and mining &
construction operations.
It is generally used to move materials
such as boulders or soil from one
location to another.
To handle even heavier loads,
various models utilize multi-
axle dump buckets.
11. DUMP TRUCK

Water Tanks are used to deliver


potable drinking water and non
potable water for dust control or any
other specific use that non drinking
water can be used.
12. GRADALL WHEEL
EXCAVATOR

An .
13. TRACTORS

Tractors are used in agriculture,


construction, road building, etc., in
the form of bulldozers, scrapers, and
diggers. A notable feature of tractors
in many applications is the power-
takeoff accessory, used to operate
stationary or drawn machinery and
implements. .
14. WHEELED SHOVELS
AND LOADER

The Loading Shovel is one of the


most versatile and common machine,
but it is totally dependent upon the
operator for correct operation.  It is
usually performing an important
major operation so there is no room
for errors.  For this reason the
operator should be totally aware of
possible dangers, and dangerous
situations for himself, others and the
machine.
15. CONCRETE MIXER
TRUCK

A concrete mixer often
colloquially called a  is a device
that homogeneously combines
cement, aggregate such as sand
or gravel, and water to
form concrete. A portable
concrete mixers are often used
so that the concrete can be
made at the construction site,
giving the workers ample time
to use the concrete before it
hardens.
16. CONCRETE
PUMP

A concrete pump is a machine used


for transferring
liquid concrete by pumping. There
are different types of concrete
pumps.
A common type of concrete pump
for large scale construction projects
is known as a boom concrete pump,
because it uses a remote
controlled articulating robotic arm
(called a boom) to place concrete
accurately. It is attached to a truck
or a semi-trailer, if particularly
long.
17. BOOM LIFT

The boom lifts can reach


both horizontally and 
vertically. For
outdoor operations, industrial
tasks, including
building projects,
are useful pieces of equipment.
The boom lifts have
a greater reach than scissor lifts
but a smaller work platform.
18. SINGLE MAN LIFT

A man lift was invented to
move employees between 
floors of under-construction
buildings. The man lifts
typically have four wheels and
can maneuver throughout 
construction sites.
This equipment, however, is
often stationary as well as must
be moved on the trailer.
19. FORKLIFT

The forklift is
powerful construction
equipment. The forklift
equipment can be used to
transfer materials across short
distances. They
are utilized to transport large go
ods around a construction site or
even a warehouse.
20. SCISSOR LIFT

When
a quieter work environment 
is required, electric scissor
lifts are employed, however
engine-powered
lifts compromise
silence for rough terrain 
mobility. The jacking
system raises scissor lift buckets.
21. ASPHALT PAVER

The asphalt
paver is equipment that
is utilized to lay asphalt. A dump
truck supplies asphalt into the
paver, which is
then distributed over
the required area before
being semi–packed down
and totally leveled by a roller.
22. SKIDDERS

The skidders are
typically employed in 
logging operations. This
forest equipment cut trees and
then transfer them to
the landing site where it will be
placed into
the vessel for transportation.
The skidders often pull logs to
a loading point, in contrast
to forwarders, which transport
logs only a few inches over
the ground.
23. WHEEL TRACTOR-
SCRAPER

The heavy machinery features a
rear hopper that
moves vertically and has a sharp
edge for leveling the ground.
A front–end host has a sharp edge
for cutting earth as well as
a carpenter’s plane for cutting
timber. The two tools
operate together to fill the 
hopper as well
as carry any debris that has
been removed from a clear area.
24. COLD PLANER

Asphalt milling machinery is
described as cold
planers which remove 
pavement
or concrete from roadways.
Pavement recycles,
pavement planers, mill or
asphalt milling machines,
and roto–mills are all terms used
to describe cold planers..
25. SKID STEER LOADER

The skid–steer loader is
smaller engine-
powered equipment that 
may be used for
a variety of tasks.
The skid loader can carry
a variety of equipment,
from buckets to loaders, and
is small enough to fit into
tight spaces on a work site.
26. COMPACT TRACK AND
MULTI-TERRAIN LOADER

The multi–
terrain loader and compact
track loader are compact
equipment that carries
and loads materials. Front 
metal plate scoops on
both machines lift as well
as break apart massive loads.
27. CARRY DECK CRANE

The carry deck cranes are


smaller four–wheeled cranes with
a rotating boom that rotates 360
degrees in the middle of
the equipment.
The carry deck cranes possess a wide
range of applications.
This equipment is mostly used to
transport materials throughout 
construction sites.
Because of their smaller size, carry
deck cranes can easily hoist huge
quantities of
materials in limited spaces.
28. KNUCKLE BOOM
LOADER

A knuckle boom loader is made


to handle logs. Depending on
their off–road abilities,
certain models are
more versatile than others.
The knuckle boom loaders are
much more versatile than
the wheel or trailer–
based variants since they
are fitted with tracks.
29. TRENCHER

Trenchers are highly
versatile construction
equipment that can be used for
a variety of purposes. It
is popular due to its flexibility.
Trenchers are utilized to
provide drainage, lay
pipelines, dig trenches,
as well as prepare for trench
warfare.
30. TOWER CRANE

Tower cranes are essential for


moving heavy goods, materials
or tools around a site. They’re
great for speeding up
construction, keeping you on
schedule and cutting costs of
time and manpower in the
process.
31. GANTRY CRANE

A gantry crane is a type of


overhead crane with a single or
double girder
configuration supported by
freestanding legs that move on
wheels or along a track or rail
system. Gantry cranes are
usually considered when there
is a reason not to incorporate
an overhead runway system.
32. OVERHEAD CRANE

Overhead cranes cover a


rectangular area, moving a load
side to side and backward and
forward. The lifting device, called
a hoist is mounted on a trolley for
horizontal movement across a
bridge beam connected to one or
more horizontal girders which
are supported at either end by
end trucks. The end trucks are
attached at right angles to the
girders and move on fixed
runways.
33. CRAWLER CRANE

A crawler crane consists of an
upper carriage mounted on a
crawler type undercarriage. The
upper deck and attachments
rotate 360º. A crawler crane
features either a box or a lattice
type straight boom and it may be
equipped with an optional jib
(boom extension).
