Civil Engineering Machinery
A construction machine or civil engineering machine is a none used on construction sites to carry out various works of earthworks.
Let’s now look at the different types of construction machinery used in the construction industry and the permits required for each.
Excavation and material loading equipment.
The Excavator Shovel
An excavator or digger is a machine designed to carry out excavation.machine excavation.
The masculine form "excavator" is used "to designate large, continuously operating earthmoving machines used for very high-output work, for example in quarries and mining operations. They are generally self-propelled and move by means of caterpillar tracks". The feminine form "excavatrice" is a generic sometimes used to designate hydraulic shovels and certain light excavators such as the trencher pelles hydrauliques .trancheuse.

The Bulldozer
The bulldozer is a crawler tractor (rarely on tires) equipped with a front blade for moving materials. The tool of terrassementearthworks is a profiled blade carried by two articulated arms that can be lowered or raised by a hydraulic mechanism. On many models, the high position of the drive pinion (sprocket)Tracks, a Caterpillar innovation, allow to increase the ground clearance and to extend the life of the crawler trains (at the expense of stability). However, a crawler tractor is in any case a very stable machine compared to a wheeled machine. It can work on fairly unstable and steep terrain, cross ditches and pivot 180° on the spot.

The Grader
consisting of a long, articulated chassis with six wheels and a wide blade in the ventral position which allows layers of materials to be adjusted in stepped slopes, for example.génie civil roueslame talutage en gradin
It should not be confused with the scraper, which is also used to level the ground but allows materials to be moved over significant distances, especially since the grader is sometimes also wrongly called a scraper. décapeuse.
