Expect the unexpected and win with Leica Geosystems, Topcon and Trimble

January 27, 2023

An ancient Chinese philosopher once said that your plan never survives first contact with the enemy. On a big construction site, machines break down, the weather suddenly takes a turn for the worse, or an accident stops everything in its tracks. Make sure you have the data you need to take the best corrective actions. Use connected construction technology to make that new plan say three leading experts on machine control and connected construction in this, our latest World Highways Roundtable.

    Pneumatic concrete dowel drills have one purpose – to drill holes. While their intended use is easy to recognize, operation of this equipment isn’t quite so simple. In fact, it’s a bit of a science. That’s not to say they’re difficult to operate. But there are certain best practices and processes to keep in mind for proper drill operation, whether it’s an on-grade, slab-rider or equipment-mounted model. Operators who adopt these guidelines and implement them on every job are rewarded with better performance
