Types of Mobile Plant in Construction

Plant encompasses vehicles, machinery, equipment, tools, vessels, and even aircraft used across various industries. In construction, this includes cranes, hoists, cutting and grinding tools, compressors, and earthmoving or excavation machinery. A subset of this is Mobile Plant, which refers specifically to movable equipment commonly used on construction sites, such as:

Asphalt Pavers

Used to lay asphalt on roads, bridges, parking lots, and other surfaces. These machines ensure even spreading and compaction of the asphalt layer.

Asphalt Pavers

Mobile Cranes

Heavy-duty vehicle with an adjustable boom used to lift, move and place heavy materials and equipment on construction sites. Features various lifting capacities and reach configurations for different project requirements.

Mobile Cranes

Concrete Pump Trucks

Specialized trucks equipped with a boom-mounted pump system that precisely delivers concrete to various heights and distances. Essential for pouring concrete in hard-to-reach areas and multi-story construction projects.

Concrete Pump Trucks

Mobile Elevated Work Platforms

Self-propelled machines providing safe elevated access for workers and tools. Includes scissor lifts, boom lifts, and cherry pickers, allowing work at various heights while maintaining stability and safety.

Mobile Elevated Work Platforms

Excavators

Tracked or wheeled machines with a boom, stick, and bucket for digging, trenching, and material handling. Versatile equipment used for earthmoving, demolition, and general construction tasks.

Excavators

Rollers

Compaction equipment used to densify soil, gravel, concrete, or asphalt surfaces. Available in various sizes and configurations including smooth drum, padfoot, and pneumatic tire designs.

Rollers

Loaders

Versatile machines equipped with a front-mounted bucket for loading, carrying, and transferring materials. Essential for moving earth, aggregate, and construction materials around job sites.

Loaders

Telehandlers

Multi-purpose machines combining the lifting capabilities of a forklift with the reach of a crane. Features an extending boom with various attachment options for lifting, placing, and moving materials at height.
