This revised and updated edition of Construction Equipment Management fills a gap on this subject by integrating both conceptual and hands-on quantitative knowledge on construction equipment into a process that facilitates student learning. The first six chapters summarize interdisciplinary concepts that are necessary to ground students' learning on construction equipment management, including both engineering and economics. Each of the next 16 chapters covers a different type of construction equipment and associated methods of use. The final chapter introduces the more advanced concept of operation analysis. This allows the book to be used on numerous courses at different levels to prepare graduates to apply skills on construction equipment when planning for a new project, estimating its costs, and monitoring field operations. Organized around the major categories of construction equipment, including both commercial and heavy civil examples, case studies, and exercises, this textbook will help students develop independence in applying concepts to hands-on scenarios. A companion website provides an instructor manual, solutions, additional examples, lecture slides, figures, and diagrams.
A desk book for practicing professionals in the management of mobile equipment in construction, mining and forrestry.
"This book introduces Big Construction Machines by looking at the different places they are used and different purposes they are used for. These include: At the quarry, making a road and building skyscrapers. Some of the big construction machines in the book are a bulldozer, a road roller, a roadheader and a concrete breaker."--
Models of construction machinery are the crowning glory of commercial vehicle modelling. Here not only the quality of the construction must be right, the models must also be designed to cope with sometimes heavy loads during operation. All the functions that excavators, caterpillars, wheel loaders and dumper in one model is another art in this field. But Kits and ready-made models are expensive and sometimes reach prices in the five-digit euro range. The alternative is do-it-yourself construction, which can also be achieved with modest means, as the author Walter Penka shows in this book. He has successfully built various types of construction and shows here his design and construction techniques. The examples of successfully functioning machines shown here enable those who want to build replicas to turn their ideas into reality. The dream of a functional construction machine model can thus become a reality. From the content: • Creating and reading drawings • Materials in model making • Tools and machines • Sheet metal working methods • Visual decoration and equipment • Building techniques - different models and their production • Volvo F12 (1:16) • Wheel loader SL26 (1:16) • Excavator Cat 225 (1:16) • Loader Cat 963B (1:14,5) • Multi Dumper (1:16) • Volvo F12 Tipper Tractor (1:87) • SL26 wheel loader in scale (1:87)
Who hasn't experienced this: you simply can't get past the new construction site without watching the gigantic machines at work. Building such giants fully functional in the small scale of 1:87 – also known as H0 on the railway – is at least as fascinating. Alexander Aufschläger has devoted himself entirely to construction machinery in microformat and shows you in this book how to successfully recreate such models. Whether excavator, tipper, wheel loader or bulldozer – here you will learn how to realise these functional models perfectly. Ensure amazement in the eyes of onlookers when you demonstrate giants in small scale!
