Almost every road building company has its own train of machines that is called \u00a0\u201croad construction machiner<\/i><\/b>y<\/i>.\u201d \u00a0\u00a0It consists of rather complicated industrial units that are characterized by dynamic manufacturing processes and involve complex mathematical equations. \u00a0The following is a non-exclusive list and description of modern road construction equipment:<\/p>\n
An excavator<\/b> is used for digging and rapid removal of large amounts of dirt and soil. \u00a0The shovel is considered to be the main part of this machine. \u00a0There are excavators with front<\/i> and back shovels<\/i> also known as \u201cBackhoes.\u201d \u00a0The first kind of excavators were designed to break hard rocky grounds. \u00a0The excavators with backhoes are applied to excavate a narrow trench used by sewer systems and underground pipelines.<\/p>\n
A grab bucket <\/b>is meant for picking, loading and transporting road construction materials. \u00a0It may be included as a part of excavators, loading machines, lift cranes, and single rails.<\/p>\n
A bulldozer<\/b> refers to the heavy equipment that performs the following functions:<\/p>\n
(1) \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0layer by layer excavating;<\/p>\n
(2) \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0ground surface leveling; and<\/p>\n
(3) \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0earth moving.<\/p>\n
In terms of design, this machine features a wheel-type or track-type tractor equipped with a moldboard.<\/p>\n
The road builders cannot do without such a unit as Dumper<\/b> or Dump Truck<\/b> when paving roads. \u00a0It is considered to be an all-purpose unit since it is able to transport any cargo. \u00a0Being mobile, the dump truck provides for the reduction of production time at the building sites.<\/p>\n
A paving machine<\/b> is the basic unit meant for compacting the bulk material mixtures.<\/p>\n
A motor grader<\/b> is necessary for removing and leveling soil and other materials. \u00a0The design peculiarities of this equipment make it possible to level the surface properly in several trips.<\/p>\n
The motor graders are classified according to the amount of the construction work they can perform:<\/p>\n
(1) \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0light;<\/p>\n
(2) \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0average; and<\/p>\n
(3) \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0heavy.<\/p>\n
There is no doubt that each road building company has binder distributors in its fleet of construction machinery. \u00a0It is used for regular spreading of binding materials (bitumen, tar, bitumen emulsion) under presssure. The GlobeCore <\/i><\/b>UVB-1 units have been designed to produce cationic as well as anionic bitumen emulsions that are widely applied in the road construction industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
