FLATBED TRUCK

A flatbed truck (or flatbed lorry in British English) is a type of truck which can be either articulated or rigid. As the name suggests, it has an entirely flat, level 'bed' body with no sides or roof. This allows for quick and easy loading of goods, and consequently they are used to transport heavy loads that are not delicate or vulnerable to precipitation, such as construction equipment, and also for abnormal loads that require more space than is available on a closed body.

WHATS A LOWBED OR LOWBOY OR LOW LOADER TRAILER

A lowboy ( low loader in British English , low-bed in western Canada and South Africa or float in Australia ) is a semi-trailer with two drops in deck height: one right after the gooseneck and one right before the wheels. This allows the deck to be extremely low compared with other trailers. It offers the ability to carry legal loads up to 12 ft (3.66 m) tall, which other trailers cannot. Lowboys are used to haul heavy equipment such as bulldozers , industrial equipment etc.

Types

The lowboy trailer comes in several types, for a wide range of tasks. Some types are: Fixed gooseneck (FGN): allows a longer deck length and has the lightest weight. These are lower trailers than normal, with low-profile tires, usually with drop ramps in the rear to facilitate loading of equipment, but are not actually considered "lowboys". The neck is arched in such a way, that it when lowered, it becomes a ramp thus allowing the front tires of equipment to be pulled onto the deck

[2] Fixed-neck: the neck is fixed to trailers; offers the lightest weight, but sacrifices the ability to detach and load over the front Hydraulic detachable gooseneck (hydraulic RGN or HRGN)): fastest and easiest to detach, at the expense of weight and deck length. It is the most common and versatile of lowboy trailers; the gooseneck is detached using large hydraulic cylinders to raise and lower the trailer and a small cylinder shores the neck to the truck, removing the neck so a large piece of equipment can be driven over the front onto the deck of the trailer for transport. The hydraulics can be run from the truck auxiliary or from a pony motor mounted in the neck of the trailer.


[3] Mechanically-detachable gooseneck (mechanical RGN or MRGN): while usually lighter than the hydraulic detachable gooseneck, users sacrifice ease and speed of detaching. Used for long specialty hauls.


[4] Mechanical folding gooseneck (MFGN): The deck folds down to ground level to provide a ramp for from trailer loading.



these is just a brief explanation of a Lowbed

Yes but before you do I want you read what's below:-where i Answer two Important frequently asked question by client and there are

How much do you clear or debush an acre or hectare

Yes i get prospective client who wants to clear there land call me and ask -how much do you clear and acre/hectare? And want to just give them a figure on phone immediately.

You see to effectively cost how much it will cost to clear an acre/hectare these factors below need to calculated


The rate of renting the equipment to be used for the clearing and debushing

The operator fee/allowance

The cost of diesel

Cost of transporting the equipment to site and back

The cost of Logistics

Small percent for contigencies

Once the cost. Of all of the above mentioned. Is determine then the cost of clearing the land per acre or hectare will be determined.

So invariably the cost of clearing land per acre or hectare is not fixed.

how many plot,acre or hectares can you clear in a day

These is a function of

the type of machine been used-which is largely determined by the nature of the land,wether dry or swampy

The nature of the forest-if its a dense or light forest
The number of stump and trees per plot,the thickness of the trees

The method of Clearing/debushing-if one is debushing and pilling the felled tree and debris,the distance of where the trees are to be pilled.if the pilled tree and debris are to be burned or loaded on a truck for carting Away

So with these the output is largely on the machine used,the nature Of forest and the method of clearing or preparing the Site.
we are still in the business of land clearing,debushing, site preparation

If you need to clear that acres or hectares of dry, or swampy land call us today

Modern grader, in foreground A grader , also commonly referred to as a road grader , a blade , a maintainer , or a motor grader , is a construction machine with a long blade used to create a flat surface during the grading process. Typical models have three axles , with the engine and cab situated above the rear axles at one end of the vehicle and a third axle at the front end of the vehicle, with the blade in between. In certain countries, for example in Finland, almost every grader is equipped with a second blade that is placed in front of the front axle. Some construction personnel refer to the entire machine as "the blade". Capacities range from a blade width of 2.50 to 7.30 m and engines from 93–373 kW (125–500 hp ). Certain graders can operate multiple attachments, or be used for separate tasks like underground mining. In civil engineering, the grader's purpose is to "finish grade" (to refine or set precisely). The "rough grading" is performed by heavy equipment or engineering vehicles such as scrapers and bulldozers . Graders are commonly used in the construction and maintenance of dirt roads and gravel roads . In the construction of paved roads they are used to prepare the base course to create a wide flat surface for the asphalt to be placed on. Graders are also used to set native soil foundation pads to finish grade prior to the construction of large buildings. Graders can produce inclined surfaces, to give cant (camber) to roads. In some countries they are used to produce drainage ditches with shallow V-shaped cross-sections on either side of highways. A more recent innovation is the outfitting of graders with GPS technology, such as manufactured by Topcon Positioning Systems, Inc. , Trimble Navigation , Leica Geosystems or Mikrofyn [1] for precise grade control and (potentially) "stakeless" construction.

Business › Re: Mack Truck,transit Mixer,self Load Mixer For Hire,lease rent in lagos nigeria by Emmelix(op):
A concrete mixer (also commonly called a cement mixer) is a device that homogeneously combines cement, aggregate such as sand or gravel, and water to form concrete.

A typical concrete mixer uses a revolving drum to mix the components. For smaller volume works portable concrete mixers are often used so that the concrete can be made at the construction site, giving the workers ample time to use the concrete before it hardens. An alternative to a machine is mixing concrete by hand. This is usually done in a wheelbarrow; however, several companies have recently begun to sell modified tarps for this purpose.

The concrete mixer was invented by Columbus industrialist Gebhardt Jaeger.[1]

Industrial mixers
Trucks and trailer

Concrete mixing transport trucks

Operating diagram of a concrete mixer
TSpecial concrete transport trucks (in–transit mixers) are made to transport and mix concrete up to the construction site. They can be charged with dry materials and water, with the mixing occurring during transport. They can also be loaded from a "central mix" plant, with this process the materialas already been mixed prior to loading.
he concrete mixing transport truck maintains the material's liquid state through agitation, or turning of the drum, until delivery. The interior of the drum on a concrete mixing truck is fitted with a spiral blade. In one rotational direction, the concrete is pushed deeper into the drum. This is the direction the drum is rotated while the concrete is being transported to the building site.

This is known as "charging" the mixer. When the drum rotates in the other direction, the Archimedes' screw-type arrangement "discharges", or forces the concrete out of the drum. From there it may go onto chutes to guide the viscous concrete directly to the job site. If the truck cannot get close enough to the site to use the chutes, the concrete may be discharged into a concrete pump, connected to a flexible hose, or onto a conveyor belt which can be extended some distance (typically ten or more metres).

A pump provides the means to move the material to precise locations, multi-floor buildings, and other distance prohibitive locations. Buckets suspended from cranes are also used to place the concrete.

The drum is traditionally made of steel but on some newer trucks as a weight reduction measure, fibreglass has been used

Rear discharge" trucks require both a driver and a "chuteman" to guide the truck and chute back and forth to place concrete in the manner suitable to the contractor. Newer "front discharge" trucks have controls inside the cab of the truck to allow the driver to move the chute in all directions. The first front discharge mixer was designed and built by Royal W. Sims of Holladay, Utah.


Concrete mixers generally do not travel far from their plant, as the concrete begins to set as soon as it is in the truck. Many contractors require that the concrete be in place within 90 minutes after loading.

If the truck breaks down or for some other reason the concrete hardens in the truck, workers may need to enter the barrel with jackhammers.

Also available is a 14 to 20 meter cherry picker or man lift
used for:
cleaning of windows

repair and maintenance of street light

cutting and trimming of trees

cleaning of roof gutters

fitting of bill board posters etc





cherry picker 101: all you need to know about it.

its an elevated work platform (also known as a cherry
picker, boom lift , man lift , basket crane or hydraladder ) is
a type of aerial work platform that consists of a platform
or bucket at the end of a hydraulic lifting system.


Design


it is often mounted on the back of a large vehicle such as
a truck (in which case it may also be called a bucket
truck or a "truck mount"wink, it can also be mounted on a flat
bed or paneled van (often referred to as a "van mount"wink,
or sometimes on a stand-alone trailer or self-moving
platform.

The bucket is designed for a person to stand in
and work from. Often a duplicate set of controls that are
used to manipulate the position of the bucket will be
available to the person in the bucket, allowing the
operator to position himself.

The lifting arms of some cherry pickers are capable of telescoping to adjust the
reach of the device, usually with automatic safety
controls to prevent tipping over. Articulated boom lifts
are more appropriate than stick booms when operating in
tight spaces or when clearing nearby obstacles is
necessary.

Cherry pickers can either be electrically
powered using batteries or powered with a diesel engine.
There are advantages and disadvantages associated with
both types of power.


Uses


Cherry pickers were originally designed [ when? ] for use in
orchards (though not just cherry orchards) where they
are still used frequently.

[1]. It lets the fruit picker pick
fruit high in a tree with relative ease. Similar devices,
also known as 'cherry pickers', are used to service
telephone , cable television , and electrical equipment on
utility poles . Christmas light displays and banners can
also be affixed with a cherry picker.
Some fire trucks have a cherry picker, known as a
snorkel,

[2]. instead of a ladder. Some window cleaners
also use them.

Cherry pickers are also used in mining,
construction , exterior painting, and sometimes by
arborists to work safely in otherwise unclimbable trees.


Cherry pickers are also used to rescue people from roller
coasters if the cars are stuck.
