ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for depositing a layer of aggregate material over a large area of land, for example, in preparing a new land fill waste-disposal site. An elongated, endless-belt conveyor is positioned across the width of the site and is supported upon a plurality of longitudinally spaced tractor units which are adapted to move the entire conveyor laterally across the length of the site. Aggregate material is supplied to one end of the conveyor and is conveyed toward the opposite end thereof. A mobile discharge unit through which the endless-belt passes, is moveable longitudinally along the conveyor to discharge the aggregate from the endless belt continuously as the discharge unit travels between the ends of the conveyor. The discharged material is continuously conveyed laterally away from the conveyor, deposited upon a portion of the site and spread along a strip of the land area laterally adjacent to the conveyor. After the strip has been covered with aggregate adjacent the conveyor along the entire width of the site, the tractor units move the entire conveyor laterally over the finished strip, and the process is repeated until the entire site is covered.
