MOVEMENT OF MATERIALS

EL MOVIMIENTO DE LOS MATERIALES

Machines for handling materials on site can be divided into two groups. The first group, dealing with the short-distance continuous transport, comprises fixed conveyors, articulated bucket line chains, screw feeders, pneumatic conveyors and vibratory equipment. The second group comprises earthmoving equipment and vehicles such as trailer-type lorries and dumpers. If the movement is vertical or nearly vertical, lifting machines are used; for example; lifts, hoists, cranes, etc. The operation of the various types of equipment listed is described. /TRRL/
