Abstract
Road surfacing machine having a front support (e.g. wheels) and a rear support (e.g. a rotatable roller) on which it can move along a road to be surfaced thereby. The body of the machine, which includes a hopper for storing material to be laid and an outlet for discharging it, is supported on the supports. Metering means (e.g. a screed plate) is positioned between the supports and serves to form a layer of selected thickness and shape of the said material on the road base. Bearing means (e.g. horizontal pivots) enable free relative angular movement between the front support on the one side and the metering means and a rear support on the other side about a longitudinal axis and about a transverse axis. Also a road surfacing machine having a front support, a hopper and a screed member, and including profiling means which comprise means for indicating the height and means for indicating the angle of inclination of the screed member.
