construction equipment

Types of construction equipment ::

Today, in order to quickly and easily construct any building, whether a small private house or commercial construction, it is needed a whole arsenal of construction equipment.

Excavators

Excavator,perhaps, the most demanded type of construction equipment. And this is not surprising, because it can perform several functions at one time. Having applied the additional attachments, it can serve as a digging machine (excavate trenches and foundation pits for buildings), loader (unloading loose goods), autograder (flatten small areas with a simple type of soil). In case the construction scale will be relatively small, for example, constructioning of a private house or small area building, a powerful excavator is able to replace several types of construction equipment all at once.

Building cranes

Regardless of the extent of the planned construction works, the building crane will definitely be necessary at the construction site. It may be, for example, automobile crane, which can easily cope with a small amount of work, such as construction of a private house or cottage. Its advantage lies in the fact that having sufficiently high power, it is mobile and does not require time and expenditures for its mounting and dismantling. This allows using the crane most effectively, with reducing the term of the lease. If a tower crane is needed to fulfil the entire spectrum of operations, it is most likely to be taken on lease for a long term (from six months or more).

Dumptrucks

Dumptrucks are designed for transporting and quick unloading of a variety of loose materials. These can be sand, crushed stone, keramzit and others. Besides that, the dumptrucks are used for disposition of garbage. Such machinery is needed on each construction site. It is particularly relevant where it is needed equipment with high off-road capability. Choosing a dumptruck, the following factors should be carefully considered: the construction conditions, types of loads to be transported, as well as weight-carrying capacity and the type of carbody overturning (side or rear). 

Hydraulic hammers

Another essential tool on the constructing site is hydraulic hammer, which is used as an attachment to excavator. It allows breaking down the cement and concrete canvas and destroying obsolete constructions. For example, the hydraulic hammer may be necessary for connecting the facility to communications, which are hidden under asphalt or demolition of needless partitions and walls, in case you making a reconstruction of the building.

Bulldozers

Bulldozers are typically used either in the preparatory, or at the final stage of construction operations. Its functions are to smooth out the pads, move large amounts of ground, dig or landfill trenches. Bulldozers are very effective, but along with this easy to use, efficient and mobile. According to technical characteristics, the bulldozers are divided into the following types: of general and special purpose, with angle blade and straight blade. In addition, the bulldozers can vary by a different traction class.

Concrete mixers

oday almost in any construction the following materials as concrete, cement or various types of solutions are used for pouring the foundation, creating of monolithic structures, brick masonry. In order to ensure uninterrupted supply of solution to the construction site, you need both mobile and stationary concrete mixers. They are easy to use, reliable, provide efficient mixing of all components of the solution. You can choose the model of concrete mixer, which is the best in terms of performance and filling space size.
