The Goal of Education
This training aims to ensure the safe operation and proper maintenance of construction equipment, and to prevent accidents. Participants will learn risk factors, operator responsibilities, and safe working procedures for each type of equipment.

Machine Groups and Modules
Construction machinery is classified into the following four basic groups:

• Lifting Group Construction Machinery (Tower Crane, Mobile Crane and Forklift/Telehandler)

• Soil Group Construction Machinery (Excavators, Loaders, Dozers, Graders, Rollers, Drilling, Piling and Drilling Machines)

• Concrete Group Construction Machinery (Mobile Pump, Stationary Pump, Concrete Mixer and Distributor Boom)

• Production Facilities (Concrete Plant, Mechanical Plant and Crushing-Screening Plant)
