Different Factors to Consider When Buying an Articulated Dump Truck

What Is an Articulated Dump Truck?

An articulated dump truck (ADT) is a vehicle used for construction and mining purposes. It is a type of off-highway truck that consists of two parts: the tractor unit and the dump body. The tractor unit is the front part of the ADT that contains the engine, transmission, and drive axle. The dump body is the rear part of the ADT that is used for carrying and dumping materials.

ADTs are typically used in construction and mining applications where they are used to transport materials such as dirt, gravel, rocks, and other debris. They are also commonly used in landscaping applications.
