- - - - Excavator
        
        These excavators use hydraulic power mechanisms to lift debris and soil
        
        Known as crawler excavator
        
        Used for demolitions and excavation works
        
        Bucket and boom design allow them to rotate a full 360 degrees
        
        Chain wheel system allows them to slide down and scale hills with less risk
        
        Greater balance, flexibility and stability
      - Backhoe
        
        Also known as diggers
        
        Backhoe and excavator differ in size, weight and functionality
        
        Can rotate 200 degrees side to side
        
        Front and back buckets design can excavate materials, load waste, and drag debris toward the vehicle
      - Dump Truck
        
        Known also as a dumper truck or tipper truck
        
        Used for transporting loose material such as sand, dirt, and gravel for construction
        
        Hinged at the rear and equipped with hydraulic rams to lift the front, allowing the material in the bed to be deposited (“dumped”) on the ground behind the truck at the site of delivery
  - - - Known as Track-mounted Cranes
      - Usually based upon the standard power unit capable of being rigged as an excavator
      - Can traverse around most sites without the need for a firm level surface, and have capacity ranges similar to those of the lorry-mounted cranes
    - - The platform lorry essentially combines the storage of a platform, with the mobility of wheels in order to form a lorry, capable of moving loads of variant sizes and weights efficiently
      - Platform lorry enable the safe and easy movement of loads of various sizes and shapes from one location to another
    - - Known as Self-supporting Static Tower Cranes
      - Generally have a greater lifting capacity than other types of crane
      - The mass of the self-supporting tower crane must be firmly anchored at ground level to a concrete base with holding-down bolts
    - - Function same as others crawler crane
      - Advantage for this crane can be reach
        farther area
    - - Known as Rough-Terrain Crane
      - These cranes are designed with wheels
        and engines which make sure they can easily find their way through unpaved terrains and landscapes
    - - Known as concrete pumping
      - It works using a valve system and the basic
        principles of hydraulics
