Transcript of excavation equipment used for construction
OBJECTIVE: To deliver a high tractive effort (or torque) at slow speeds.
Tractors can be fitted with engineering tools such as dozer blades, buckets, hoes, rippers, etc.
OBJECTIVE: To push large quantities of soil, sand, rubble, or any
other such material
A bulldozer is a crawler (continuous tracked tractor) equipped with a substantial metal plate (known as a blade) and at the rear with a claw-like device (known as a ripper) to loosen densely compacted materials
ABOUT: The clamshell bucket is a more sophisticated
articulated several-pieces device, including two
elementary buckets associated on a hinged structure
forming a claws-like appendage with an internal volume.
ABOUT: A dredger is any device, machine, or vessel that is used
to excavate and remove material from the bottom of a body
of water. For example, a scoop attached to the end of a
rope or pole by which a man can draw sediments up from
the bottom of a pond is a dredger.
OBJECTIVE: To dig trenches, especially for laying pipes or cables, for installing drainage, or in preparation for trench warfare
ABOUT: Also known as backhoe, is a piece of excavating equipment
or digger consisting of a digging bucket on the end of a two-
part articulated arm. They are typically mounted on the
back of a tractor or front loader
