Moving the Earth: The Workbook of Excavation

For more than 30 years Moving the Earth has been the standard reference on every type of excavation, hauling, and grading equipment, along with the different jobs and ways in which machines are used. Created specifically for contractors, foremen and operators, this big, third edition contains new sections on lasers, automatic grading machinery, paving with asphalt, concrete and soil cement, blacktop manufacture, hydraulic systems and excavators, hydrostatic drives, controlled blasting, chain saws, tree chippers and cutlers, and much more. Over 3,200 individual drawings, photos and graphs make every description and procedure crystal clear.
