eBook: Smart Machines: A Guide to Advanced Technology on Modern Construction Equipment

It’s true that technology can be intimidating, but once you realize how it works, it can make life a whole lot easier. This eBook is designed to help you do just that.

Technology is quickly changing construction equipment. Grade control is almost standard on categories like dozers today. AI cameras just appeared like a year ago, and now everyone’s offering one. Telematics isn’t just machine location info. It’s the ultimate ecosystem to collect data on everything from fuel burn to maintenance alerts, and it increasingly includes business functions (like project data tracking or equipment timecards as examples). The modern machine is smarter, but it’s also maybe a little more complicated. So, we built this special digital edition of Construction Equipment to help you figure it out.

This eBook explores the trends and technologies changing equipment and fleet management in 2026. We examine grade control, AI cameras, telematics, equipment cost data, fuel-saving tools, and the industry’s progress toward autonomous jobsites. We also measure the gap between all the talk about AI and its limited use in the field. It’s true that technology can be intimidating, but once you realize how it works, it can make life a whole lot easier. This eBook is designed to help you do just that.
