Construction machinery and equipment are commonly used for projects to help save labor and promote the completion of projects more effectively and with better quality. There are many types of construction machinery used in the working process.
What is construction machinery?
Construction machinery is equipment that supports the construction process, saving time and effort while still ensuring quality and labor productivity.
Construction machinery and equipment are used in construction projects to dig, lift, mix, move, … and other jobs related to the construction process. Depending on the purpose of use, there will be many different types and sizes.
Benefits of using construction machinery and equipment
- Helps speed up the work, making the construction process more efficient and faster.
- Helps ensure good accuracy and uniformity when using suitable construction machinery.
- Helps save working time, increase productivity, thereby reducing labor costs and construction costs. Although the initial cost of investing in machinery is quite high.
- Helps reduce risks and safety for workers.
- Helps work more effectively in difficult and complicated tasks during construction.
Classification of construction machinery and equipment
Construction machinery is classified based on its purpose, function, structure and technology used. Here is a classification of common types of construction machinery:
Engine and generator group:
Used for the purpose of converting energy. For example, electric motors, hydraulic motors, etc.
Horizontal transport machine group:
Used in cyclic material transportation. For example tractors, trains, cars…
Lifting and moving machine group:
Used in transporting and lifting heavy objects vertically.
Group of foundation reinforcement machines, earthmoving machines:
Use the process of earthworks or stabilizing foundations. For example, excavating and earthmoving machines such as bulldozers, tillers, scrapers, etc. Or for example, compacting machines and equipment: Such as sheep foot rollers, wheel rollers, dynamic compactors, vibrating rollers.
Group of machines for manufacturing construction materials and components:
This is a group of diversely designed machinery and equipment with different uses.
The group is divided into small groups of applications based on their uses:
Used to produce bricks and stones, to produce stone, to produce roofing materials, to produce adhesives, to use in concrete construction, etc.
Complete machine and equipment group:
Used for cleaning or washing on the outside surface…
Group of specialized machinery and equipment:
Often used in toxic environments or construction on roads, dredging channels – sluices – sewer equipment, etc.
Summary of popular construction machinery
The following is a summary of the types of machines required in the construction industry:
- Concrete mixer: Used to mix construction materials such as cement, sand, gravel, … => Helps save materials, simplify work and make it more convenient.
- Wheel loader: Capable of dumping soil, digging soil and transporting various construction materials, such as: gravel, stone, sand, concrete and soil.
- Bulldozer: Used to level and flatten the ground, large surfaces, such as: airports, irrigation works, urban areas, lanes.
- Pile drilling machine: Used to drive foundation piles to increase the strength of the foundation.
- Air compressor: Used to compress gas to increase air pressure.
- Iron cutter: Used to cut bars, iron rods of uneven size => Create iron bars with lengths suitable for construction requirements.
- Electric welding machine: Used to connect the two ends of metal bars such as aluminum, iron, steel, … together.
- Concrete pile driver: Also known as bored pile driver, is a device used to press concrete piles during the process of building foundations => Save time, labor => Increase productivity, improve accuracy.
- Crane: Also known as crane or crane, often used to lift and move heavy objects from low to high or high to low.
- Smoothing machine: The machine is used to press concrete molds, smooth the concrete surface => Support workers to flatten concrete quickly and create high aesthetics for the project.
Above is information about construction machinery and the types of construction machinery needed.
