MECHANIZATION
Its the process of changing from working largely or exclusively by hand or with animals to doing that
work with machinery.
PHASES : MECHANIZATION
• Part 1. Introduction.• Part 2. General Consideration.• Part 3. Fundamental of Mechanization.• Part 4. Earth Moving Eqpt.• Part 5. Construction Vehs.• Part 6. Material Handling Eqpt.• Part 7. Construction Eqpt.• Part 8. Scaffoldings.• Conclusion.
PART 1 : INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
• Project : comprises of various activities of diverse nature.• Execution of each activity be planned meticulously to
ensure sequential execution in time.• No alternative to adopting mechanized construction
methods to achieve more in less time.• Once the decision of deployment of construction
equipment is taken , required construction equipment need to be identified.
• Example. • Earthmoving construction equipment.• Handling and lifting equipment's,• Aggregate and concrete production equipment.
PART 2: GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
• Construction Projects. • Two types:-• Linear project. Traditional approach (involving concept, design, procurement, and constr)
• Fast-Tracked Project. (Design and build)• In Fast-Tracked job, design and constr being carried out
almost simultaneously. • Constr work is started even when the design engineers are
working on the fdns happens when competitive bidding is not essential.
• Design and construction work are set on parallel tracks.
• Input for designing may not be available in time as a result of which reconstruction may be necessary to comply with the input when received.
• Less control over costs• In both cases, intent of planning and implementation
should be:• Constr cost should not exceed the budget.• Quality of executed work has to conform to the
specifications, drawings, codes, etc.• Time of execution as per agreed time schedule.
DISADVANTAGE OF FAST-TRACKED PROJECT
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
• Constr cost is a major factor in all projects.• Factors influencing the constr cost such as:-• Labour. • Material.• Construction Equipment. (Costs of constr eqpt ranges from 25-40% of total Project cost)• Profit etc.
DEPLOYMENT OF CONSTR EQUIPMENT
.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
• Larger output.• Cost-effective implementation• For execution of work not feasible by manual efforts.• Reduce the amount of heavy manual work.• Reduces fatigue and manual efforts are more
productive.• Large output even in shortage of skilled and semi skilled
manpower.• Precision using modern eqpt with software controls.• Time saving.
DEPLOYMENT OF CONSTR EQUIPMENT: ADVANTAGES
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
EQUIPMENT ON LEASE• Mechanization based on rented constr eqpt is cost effective. • Constr eqpt rented exactly to match the requirement.• For rented equipment, time to make the equipment ready for
operation is important.• For Example. Selection among Truck Mounted Telescopic Jib
Crane, Tower Crane, Truck Mounted Strut-boom Crane.• Truck mounted strut boom crane needs time for assembling jib for heavy
duty work.• Telescopic jib cranes are better in this respect as very short period of time
is required to prepare for the deployment on arrival at the construction site.
• The main advantage of a tower crane is that its jib is supported at the top of a tall tower, which may be set at a sufficient height to clear all possible obstruct ion
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS

EQUIPMENT SELECTION
.
• Selecting the appropriate equipment for the job.• Chosen only after analysis of many interrelated factors.• The important points for consideration are:-• Function to be performed.• Capacity of the equipment.• Method of operation.• Limitations of the method.• Costs of the method.• Cost comparison with other methods.• Possible modification.
Sir,Shall we go for
Rent or purchase
RENT OR PURCHASE
.• Once the construction equipment , machineries are selected. • Option of purchasing or renting or a combination.Purchasing• Purchasing of construction equipment and machineries would
be advantageous for the reasons as follows:-• Available at all times for deployment.• Resources could be used in other projects as per conceived
programme.• Cost of resources could be apportioned among different
contracts.
EQUIPMENT SELECTION
Renting• Rented as required for a calculated period of time.• Hiring agencies are responsible for repair, replacement, and even
operation.• Post hiring period, the executing agency would be liability free of
the rented items.
Renting construction equipment and machineries would be advantageous in some other way for the reasons as
mentioned below:-
NEED FOR MECHANIZATION IN CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY

work the concrete towards the discharge end of the mixer, in order to provide a rapid rate of discharge.
Tilting drum mixer They are most suitable for concrete with large sized aggregate and, since they have a rapid discharge rate, are suitable for low workability concrete. Internal blades lift
and tumble the ingredients onto itself.
Reversing mixer Rotate in one direction for mixing and in the reverse direction for discharge. One set of blades exists for each operation. Provide efficient mixing with very little build
up within the mixer. Are suitable with dry concrete mixes.

PART 6 : CONSTRUCTION EQPT: MIXERS
TRANSIT MIXER
• Special concrete transport trucks .• Transports and mix concrete up to the construction site. • Charged with dry materials and water, with the mixing occurring during
transport. They can also be loaded from a "central mix" plant, with this process the material has already been mixed prior to loading.
• Maintains the material's liquid state through agitation, or turning of the drum, until delivery.
• Carriage Cap = 4m3

• Rollers are the construction equipment used for the compaction of soil, gravel, sand, crushed stone layers, etc. Roller working principle is based on vibration, impact loading, kneading and by applying direct pressure on the respective layer.
• The four most commonly used rollers are;•Vibratory Roller•Tamping roller/ sheep foot roller•Smooth wheel rollers•Pneumatic tired roller
Rollers/ Compactors
PART 6 : CONSTRUCTION EQPT - COMPACTORS
Sheep Foot Roller.• Front steel drum consists of many rectangular
shaped boots in hexagonal pattern. • Coverage area = 8- 12% • Compaction by static wt and kneading of resp
layer. • Better suited for clay soils. • Contact pressure varies from 1200- 7000 Kpa.
Sheep Foot Roller
Vibratory Type Rollers .• Consists of two smooth wh/ drums plus the
vibrators.• Vibratory roller covers the full area under wh.• Vibrators are turned off during the reversed
motion of roller. • Vibration is to reduce the air voids and to cause
densification of granular soils.
Vibratory Type Rollers
PART 6 : CONSTRUCTION EQPT -COMPACTORS
Tamping Foot Roller• Consists of four wheels with kneading boots. • Tamping roller has more coverage area i.e.,
about 40- 50%. • Contact pressure varies from 1400 – 8500KPa. • Best dedicated for fine grained soils.
Smooth Wheel Roller • Smooth wheel roller has no vibrator
attached with the drum.• Best suited for rolling of weaker
aggregates, proof rolling of subgrades and in compacting asphalt pavements.
• Compaction of clay or sand is not a good choice to done with smooth wheel roller.

Smooth Wheel Roller
Pneumatic Tired Roller • Pneumatic tired roller has a number of rubber tires at the Front and
at the rear end. • 80% coverage area under the wheels. • Contact pressure ranges from 500 – 700kpa.• Also used for smoothening of finishing bitumen layer.

PART 7 : SCAFFOLDING
.
Scaffoldings• Scaffolding is a temp erection of timber or steel structure to
facilitate constr alteration or demolition of structures to allow hoisting lowering or standing / supporting of mtrls , men at heights.
• Types:-• Supported • Suspended • Rolling • Mobile • Aerial Lift
PART 7 : SCAFFOLDING
• Most commonly used type of scaffolding and can be used wherever possible.
• It is built from the base towards the top. This makes the scaffolding to be the easiest and the most convenient to be used for construction.
Supported Scaffolding
PART 7 :SCAFFOLDING
• These scaffoldings are suspended from a roof when support to the ground is not at all possible.
• This is used mainly by window cleaners of high buildings.
Suspended Scaffolding
PART 7 : SCAFFOLDING
• When a set of wheels is fitted to the scaffolding structure it becomes a rolling scaffolding.
• This makes the scaffolding to be able to be shifted back and forth to adjust the scaffolding structure.
Rolling Scaffolding
PART 7 : SCAFFOLDING
• Like rolling scaffolding, these are also fitted with wheels to take them anywhere.
• It provides easy access to places where one cannot reach to do some adjustments.
Mobile Scaffolding
PART 7 : SCAFFOLDING
Aerial Lift Scaffolders• Aerial lifts are wonderful
scaffoldings that are quite flexible in nature.
• They can take a person and materials to various levels of a building.
• They are easy to operate and maintain.
