These loaders are generally used for smaller jobs, such as are:
- Moving dirt;
- Backfill;
- Digging trenches;
- Placing smaller pipes into place;
Also, it is good to notice that the bucket in the back of the backhoe can be modified using different attachments.
5. Graders
Another popular type of construction vehicles is the grader.
The graders are considered as heavy equipment vehicles. The prime purpose of these heavy equipment vehicles is to move small amounts of dirt. As well as to fine grade.
Moreover, graders are composed of a long blade- which aim is to create a flat surface. In addition, there are some graders that are upgraded with a second blade. The second blade is most commonly placed in the front axle of the vehicle.
In general, the capacities of the graders range from:
- A blade width of 2.50 up to 7.30m;
- Engines from 93 to 373 kW;
The graders as one of the most popular types of construction vehicles can be also used to produce sloped surfaces.
6. Trenchers
Trenchers do range in size- from walk-behind models up to very heavy tracked equipment.
