About This Course
A chip spreader is a specialized piece of equipment used in road construction and maintenance to distribute aggregate (such as gravel, crushed stone, or asphalt) evenly onto the surface of a roadway. The purpose of using a chip spreader is to create a protective and durable layer of material that enhances the skid resistance, longevity, and overall performance of the road surface. Like any heavy machinery used in construction and roadwork, chip spreaders can pose risks if not operated properly or if safety precautions are not followed.
Online training for chip spreaders is a valuable resource for operators and construction professionals, providing essential knowledge and skills to operate this specialized equipment safely, efficiently, and in accordance with industry best practices. Quiz questions will be featured throughout the course to test learners on the knowledge acquired during the course. A certificate of completion will be awarded upon finishing the program and passing the course’s final exam.
