Construction Vehicles / Equipment

[John QPE]

Does anyone have a handy list of different construction vehicles and equipment and their uses they could share.

Like Dump truck - moves dirt

Back hoe - digs dirt

Sheepsfoot - compacts dirt

I had a dream last night that I may need this on Friday, and want to put it in my binder.

Thanks

^^^material. It's not always soil. Sometimes it's road base, gravel, crushed rock, ballast, etc. Those are also used for asphalt.
