Rollers

A roller is a construction vehicle used for compacting, most commonly when building foundations or roads, when soil, concrete or gravel is required to be less porous and more densely structured, so as to increase strength. There are many different types of rollers, ranging from manually operated to huge 20-tonne vehicles. Sometimes the rollers are hollow, so as to facilitate easy transportation from site to site, and are filled with water when necessary to produce the required weight. There are also self-propelled rollers, which can come with between one and three drums.
