This document provides an overview of the various types of construction equipment and machinery used on construction sites. It categorizes construction machines into earthmoving machinery, construction vehicles, material handling equipment, and construction equipment. Earthmoving machinery discussed includes excavators, bulldozers, loaders, and compressors used for digging and moving earth. Construction vehicles mentioned are dumpers, tippers, and trailers used for transporting materials. Material handling equipment includes bending machines, U-heads, cranes, and cutting machines. Key construction equipment described are concrete mixers, compactors, pavers, and spraying/plastering machines.

2. INTRODUCTION
These days we have a wide variety of
construction machineries and equipment on
every construction site making our work
easy, better, safe and quick.
There are different categories, construction
machines are classified depending on their
applications.

3. The categories are :
A. Earthmoving machinery
B. Construction vehicles
C. Material handling equipment
D.Construction equipment

4. EARTHMOVING MACHINERY
• Earthmoving machineries are used to dig
out large amount of earth, dig foundations
and excavate.
• The earthmoving machineries are of
various types like
1. Hydraulic excavators
2. Bulldozers
3. Loaders
4. Compressors.

5. EXCAVATORS
• Excavators are also
called as diggers.
• Excavators are
used for:
digging trenches,
foundations
Material handling
Demolitions
Heavy lifts,etc.

6. LOADERS
• A loader is a machine
often used on
constructions sites to
load material such as
asphalts, debris,
rock, sand, gravels,
etc. into other
machineries like
dump truck,etc.

7. BULLDOZERS
• Bulldozers are
crawlers equipped
with a substantial
metal plate used to
push large qty. of
rubble, soil, sand,
etc. during
construction.

8. There are many other machineries like:
•Backhoe
•Scrappers
•Graders
•Trenchers
•Etc.

9. CONSTRUCTION VEHICLES
Constructions vehicles are heavy duty
vehicles designed specially for executing
construction.
The vehicles are:
• Dumpers
• Tippers
• Trailers

10. DUMPER,TRAILER,TIPPER

11. MATERIAL HANDLING
EQUIPMENTS

12. BENDING MACHINE
For bending straight steel rods, bending
machine is used in order to pour concrete.

13. U –HEADS
• U-Heads are used to
hold I-Beams to the
scaffoldings.

14. •Steel scaffolding
are adjustable.
•In order to
adjust them
,such pins are
used.

15. CUTTING MACHINE

16. • Cranes are used for
the movement of
materials and for
assembling heavy
material or
equipment.

19. CONCRETE MIXER
• Concrete mixer also
known as cement
mixer is basically a
device that
homogenously mixes
sand, cement,
aggregate, gravel and
water to form
concrete.

20. COMPACTORS
• A compactor is a
mechanism used to
reduce the size of the
waste material or soil
through compaction.

21. • OTHER CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENTS ARE:
• PAVERS
• SPRAYING AND PLASTERING MACHINES.
• STONE CRUSHERS, ETC.
