What Space-savingor Do I Need?
A compactor is an vital tool for preparing a solid base for structures such as patios, retaining walls, concrete slabs, and more. Tamping rammers and compactors are utilized to boost the density of soil by reducing air voids, which assist to improve soil stability, back structures, and prevent settling. With so many choices on the market, choosing the right plate compactor can be a daunting assignment.

Small Jobs

If you are installing artificial turf, constructing dirt pathways, or need to improve soil stability – but do not need to adhere to a minimum compaction rating you can utilize a compactor in the 110 lbs (50 kilo) range. These are great for anyone looking to get a job done by themselves with little headache.

Medium Jobs

If your project involves constructing a retaining wall, patio, driveway, sidewalk, or concrete slab you will need a bit more muscle. Rammers and compactors in the130-200 lbs (60-90 kilo) rangethat can accomplish a compaction force above 3,000 lbs²/ft are best. You will accomplish 98-100% compaction ratings needed for proper compaction to prevent soil settling and establishation damage.

Large Jobs

Equipment needed for large compaction projects should also be able to accomplish a minimum compaction force of 3,000 lbs²/ft to reach 98-100% compaction ratings needed for proper compaction. Where this equipment differs from medium range equipment is it’s efficiency. Large jobs are typically performed by professional contractors where speed and jobsite efficiency are critical to their success. Space-savingors that assist jobsite efficiency may feature reverse control, hydraulic drive, and the ability to compact asphalt. If you are not too worried about the time it takes to complete a project, you can save a few bucks and invest in equipment in the medium range.
