Excavation

When we think of infrastructure in construction, water, electricity, sewage, and natural gas immediately come to mind.

Creating a functional infrastructure that fits the urban fabric and operates systematically is especially challenging in densely populated metropolitan areas with unplanned urbanization.

Infrastructure work can be difficult when the site is narrow or located within traffic, and removing the excavated material from the area can also pose challenges.

Excavation refers to all materials removed after digging, such as excess soil, gravel, and stones.

During infrastructure and excavation work, modern construction machinery is required to transport the excavated material efficiently.

The main machines used in infrastructure and excavation work include:

  • Truck
  • Bulldozer
  • Scraper
  • Grader
  • Excavator

Details of their usage are as follows:

Bulldozer: Used for shallow digging, distributing soil dumped by trucks, leveling the ground, and short-distance soil transport.

Scraper: Used in loose soil during infrastructure and excavation works, and for transporting excavated material.

Grader: Used for trench digging, leveling, and road construction, and can also be used for snow removal and loosening the ground.

Excavator: Highly mobile excavators are used in confined excavation areas, laying building foundations, digging channels, and tunnels.
