In the world of construction, the existence of heavy equipment is certainly non-negotiable. It is because every construction process requires heavy equipment to help make it easier for humans to do the work of building a building structure.
Some of the heavy equipment is divided into their respective functions, such as land processing equipment, diggers, material transporters, to material transfer devices. For the process of transporting construction equipment or Transporting Construction Materials, knowledge of several things is needed. What is that? Check out the review below!
Preparing Transportation
The first thing that must be considered before carrying out transportation equipment is to review the overall condition of construction equipment based on specific instructions. Check the equipment wrap in each section, such as a gauge, button, or check if there is a loose lever and can be dislodged during the transport process.
Although some equipment providers often use experienced carrier services, there is nothing wrong by finding out who will transport the ordered construction equipment hence if there is no delay or something about the goods ordered, it will be easier to track them.
Marking List Before the Equipment Transporting
Before construction equipment is transported, it is better to mark several lists of markers ready or not for the goods to be transported. Some of them are:
1. Check the condition of the machine whether there is a problem or not
2. Close all gaps that can be entered by dirt, dust, and engine fumes so that construction equipment remains sterile
3. If some equipment uses a battery, unplug all the batteries from their place
4. Tie and attach all existing equipment to avoid shaking during exposure
5. If the equipment load is close to the maximum capacity of the carrier, do not forget to ask for permission and ensure the route to be traveled
Avoiding Overloads
There is no secret if every construction equipment often has excessive weight, such as cranes, bulldozers, scraper, and excavators. When the equipment allows for distribution to other carriers, it is a good idea to do this.
This is to avoid overloading because the excessive burden will make the carrier get a ban on walking on certain roads or bridges.
Performing a Re-Check
When everything is ready to go, don't forget to double check. Make sure the delivery schedule and estimated arrival are correct. Some things that can be asked of transport equipment carriers include estimates of the date and time of arrival, the location of shipment, to the contact number that can be contacted.
While in the reception section, ensure that the loading and unloading area of the construction equipment is safe and free from interference. Not only that, mechanics who can reassemble disassembled equipment are available at the location so that the risk of ignorance in the preparation of equipment can be avoided.
Thus, there are a number of things needed to transport construction equipment in order to arrive in time. One of the special locations for the best world-class industrial and construction areas in Indonesia, namely Karawang New Industry City (KNIC), located in West Java.
The basic concept of KNIC is a world-class integrated industrial city so that the presence of world-class infrastructure is clearly visible in this place. It not only aims to support the performance of a manufacturing company, but KNIC is also present to support the acceleration of regional economic growth and present a Multiplier Effect that is useful for socio-economic development in Karawang and other areas in the West Java region.
