Our recent project installing 2.4 kilometres of ducting along state highway 1 for Transit NZ using a Mastenbroek 14/14 Rock Trencher subcontracted to us by Mexteds. This machine eliminates the need for road sawing and excavators, and can achieve 150 - 300 meters a day in carriageway construction 800mm deep depending on ground conditions.
The amount of trenching this machine can produce compared to conventional means of excavation, saves time and money on plant, traffic management over the duration of the work and can be carried out in one continuous line, unlike conventional excavation work with a truck and excavator taking up two traffic lanes, we only need one. |
