Survey & Machine Control
Elite Roads combines in-house survey expertise and advanced 3D Machine Control technology to deliver asphalt paving and road profiling to millimetre-perfect accuracy across Melbourne and Victoria. Our survey and machine control capabilities are fully integrated with our paving and profiling operations, giving clients a single, accountable team from design through to delivery.
The Role of 3D Machine Control in Road Construction
3D Machine Control technology precisely guides paving and profiling equipment using data input directly from the client's design, eliminating the need for manual level adjustments and the inconsistencies that come with them. The machine reads the design and controls the paver or profiler automatically, ensuring materials are applied or removed exactly to specification.
Our in-house survey team collects accurate surface data ahead of every job, allowing us to precisely determine asphalt volumes, identify potential challenges early and set the project up for a successful outcome before work even begins on site.
HOW OUR
TECHNOLOGY WORKS
Our 3D Machine Control systems use sensors, sophisticated software and total stations to guide construction equipment with unmatched accuracy, meeting and exceeding the rideability targets set by governing transport bodies. The semi-automated paving and profiling process also frees up our crews to focus on plant and personnel safety on site.
Our investment in advanced machine control technology allows us to quickly collect detailed topographical data and work to a design that suits client needs. By identifying potential issues early in the planning stage, we significantly reduce the risk of costly delays and rework.
Our in-house survey team works seamlessly alongside our paving and profiling crews, collecting and analysing data throughout the project to ensure accurate implementation from initial planning through to final execution.
BENEFITS OF 3D MACHINE CONTROL in
road construction
Increased Efficiency
Reduces manual measurements and adjustments, leading to faster project completion and lower labour costs.
Reduced Material Waste
Precise machine control minimises over-excavation and material wastage, reducing costs and environmental impact.
Enhanced Accuracy
Achieves millimetre-perfect precision, essential for meeting strict regulatory standards and ensuring the longevity of road infrastructure.
Safety
The semi-automated paving and profiling process reduces the need for manual interventions on site, freeing up crews to focus on plant and personnel safety.
