AMM boosts efficiency with new Liebherr PR 776 crawler dozers

The AMM construction company (Murcia, Spain) specialises in civil engineering and major construction projects, covering a range of services, spanning railway construction, hydraulic engineering and industrial projects. With a significant commitment to industrial and agricultural transformation, AMM contributes to the development of sustainable infrastructure in Spain. The two new Liebherr PR 776 Crawler Dozers compliment the existing fleet, which includes a PR 744, PR 746, PR 764 and PR 766, ensuring the company is well equipped for major construction projects.

The impressive efficiency of Liebherr Crawler Dozers Rising energy prices and stricter environmental standards are a constant feature of modern times, where fuel efficiency plays a critical role. And the decisive advantages of the PR 776 where recently reported by one of AMM?s experienced machine operators. For more than two decades, he has exclusively operated dozers from other leading manufacturers - that is till now: He has been so impressed with the high efficiency and power output of the Liebherr Crawler Dozers, he has become a full convert and outspoken Liebherr fan. The PR 776 is noted for optimum efficiency and power transfer, making construction operations not just more efficient, but also more sustainable. With an impressive average fuel consumption of 55 litres per operating hour, the Liebherr model sets new class leading standards. AMM's experienced operator was quick to emphasise how the Liebherr machine shows significantly different performance in terms of fuel consumption compared to alternative dozers, such as the models from one of the well-known manufacturers in this class. From the operator's own experience, the average fuel consumption on these machines was up to 90 litres per hour.

PR 776: Power pack for material quarry extraction and renaturalisation The first of the new Liebherr PR 776 Crawler Dozers has already completed 1,200 operating hours in a quarry near Murcia, Spain. Here, it has been used primarily for material extraction for railway construction, with the machine being used equally for pushing and ripping operations. In the quarry, the efficiency and power output of the PR 776 really stand out. With maximum power output for pushing and pulling, it is ideal for transporting large quantities of rock. The hydrostatic drive ensures stepless speed adjustment and continuous power transmission, even in difficult terrain. This enables precise and effective movement of material - ideal for use in quarries - while the Eco mode makes operation even more efficient.

The second PR 776 is being used for restoration of an expired quarry near Ciudad Real, Spain. The renaturalisation of quarries is critical for minimising environmental impact of mining work and returning the terrain to a near-natural state. The PR 776 offers significant advantages in this application: The precision and mobility of the hydrostatic drive provide the driver with optimum support when modelling the terrain and filling in excavated pits.

Handling concrete better

Efficiently handling the transportation and placement of concrete is essential to help maintain the quality of construction, meet project timelines by minimising downtimes, and reduce costs – by 5 to 15 per cent, according to Sandeep Jain, Director, Arkade Developers. CW explores what the efficient handling of concrete entails.Select wellFirst, a word on choosing the right equipment, such as a mixer with a capacity aligned to the volume required onsite, from Vaibhav Kulkarni, Concrete Expert. “An overly large mixer will increase the idle time (and cost), while one that ..

Elevated floors!

Raised access flooring, also called false flooring, is a less common interiors feature than false ceilings, but it has as many uses – if not more.A raised floor is a modular panel installed above the structural floor. The space beneath the raised flooring is typically used to accommodate utilities such as electrical cables, plumbing and HVAC systems. And so, raised flooring is usually associated with buildings with heavy cabling and precise air distribution needs, such as data centres.That said, CW interacted with designers and architects and discovered that false flooring can come in handy ..

The Variation Challenge

A variation or change in scope clause is defined in construction contracts to take care of situations arising from change in the defined scope of work. Such changes may arise due to factors such as additions or deletions in the scope of work, modifications in the type, grade or specifications of materials, alterations in specifications or drawings, and acts or omissions of other contractors. Further, ineffective planning, inadequate investigations or surveys and requests from the employer or those within the project’s area of influence can contribute to changes in the scope of work. Ext..
