Summary: Two drums for better compaction
Tandem rollers are a type of compaction equipment used
in construction, particularly for asphalt paving. Their defining feature is
that they have two smooth steel drums, one at the front and one at the rear.
Design: The presence of two drums is what makes them "tandem." Both drums are used for compaction, maximizing the pressure applied to the surface in a single pass.
Function: Tandem rollers are primarily used to:
* Compact asphalt layers during
road construction and paving.
* Create a smooth and even
surface finish.
Advantages:
* They provide efficient
compaction due to the double drum action.
* The smooth drums help to
achieve a high-quality, even surface finish.
* They are well-suited for achieving the density and smoothness required for durable pavements.
