Survey & Machine Control

At Elite Roads, we prioritise precision and efficiency to deliver high-quality infrastructure projects. Leveraging the latest technological advancements, ensuresour projects are completed on time and with the highest standards of accuracy. Our comprehensive approach combines state-of-the-art 3D machine control and survey services, integrated seamlessly with our paving and profiling operations.

The Role of 3D Machine Control in Road Construction

At Elite Roads, we utilise advanced 3D Machine Control technology to pave or profile exactly to client specifications, ensuring greater reliability and accuracy than manual methods. Manually paving or profiling often requires operators to adjust levels themselves, leading to potential inconsistencies. Machine control technology eliminates this issue by using data input into a computer, which precisely controls the paver or profiler, ensuring that materials are applied or removed exactly as per design. Our in-house survey team collects accurate data to assess the quality of the client's surface. This precise data allows us to accurately place or remove asphalt and pre-determine the volume of product needed. By addressing potential challenges early, we lay the foundation for successful project outcomes.

Investing in advanced technology

At Elite Roads, our investment in advanced machine control technology allows us to quickly and accurately 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.

The impact of machine control construction

3D machine control technology uses sensors, sophisticated software, and total stations to precisely guide construction equipment. Our machinery is equipped with these advanced systems to ensure every aspect of the road construction process is executed with unmatched accuracy. This technology allows us to achieve precise profiling and paving levels, ensuring we meet and exceed rideability targets set by governing transport bodies. The semi-automated paving and profiling process also frees up our crews to focus on the safety of the plant and personnel on site

Benefits of machine control

• 1. Increased efficiency — Machine control systems streamline the construction process by reducing the need for manual measurements and adjustments, leading to faster project completion times and lower labour costs.

• 2. Enhanced accuracy — We can achieve millimetre-perfect levels of precision in our construction projects with machine control. This level of accuracy is essential for meeting strict regulatory standards and ensuring the longevity of the roadways we build.

• 3. Reduced material waste — Precise control over construction machinery minimises the risk of over-excavation and material wastage. This not only saves costs but also reduces the environmental impact of our projects.

Integration of surveying and machine control in construction

At Elite Roads, we seamlessly integrate survey and 3D machine control technologies into our road construction processes. Our in-house survey team meticulously collects and analyses data, ensuring it is accurately translated into the construction phase. This integration optimises every stage of the construction process, from initial planning to final execution, enhancing overall project outcomes.

The future of surveying and machine control

Elite Roads is committed to staying at the forefront of road construction innovations. We continuously invest in the latest equipment and provide ongoing training for our team, ensuring we can deliver the highest-quality infrastructure projects.
