In engineering scenarios, dump trucks serve as the primary vehicles for “earthwork and building material transportation,” covering the entire process from project groundbreaking to completion. Their specific applications include:

Earthwork operations: Transporting excess soil during site leveling, excavated spoil from foundation pits, or backfilling sand, gravel, and native soil into foundations (e.g., real estate construction sites, roadbed construction);

Building Material Transport: Short-distance haulage of bulk construction materials like concrete aggregates (sand/gravel), cement, lime, and bricks. Directly interfaces with mixers and construction zones (eliminating extra handling equipment for efficient unloading);

Infrastructure Projects: Transporting tunnel spoil and roadbed fill materials (e.g., crushed stone, graded aggregates) during highway, railway, bridge, and tunnel construction. Some large dump trucks can operate within confined tunnel spaces;

Building Demolition: Hauling construction debris (e.g., broken bricks, concrete chunks) from demolition sites. Some dump trucks equipped with sealed cargo beds prevent dust pollution, making them suitable for urban demolition projects.

Mining Transportation: In coal mines, iron ore mines, non-ferrous metal mines, and other mining operations, large mining dump trucks (typically 30 tons or more, with some exceeding 100 tons) are used to transport ore and slag from underground or open-pit mining sites. These vehicles are designed to navigate complex terrain such as gravel roads and steep inclines within mining areas.

Quarries / Sand & Gravel Pits: Transporting mined stone materials (e.g., granite, limestone) and manufactured sand directly to crushers, building material processing plants, or transferring to ports and freight stations for export.

Non-Metal Mining Operations: At gypsum mines, clay mines, and similar sites, transferring non-metallic mineral raw materials for use in building materials (e.g., tiles, gypsum board) or chemical industry production.
