Those respondents who selected aggregates producer/facility will be referred to as "aggregate". The following report examines the results of a survey that was emailed to Equipment World and Aggregate Manager subscribers. The purpose of the survey was to gather information on the equipment fleets, the truck fleets and the lubricants used in the construction and aggregate industries. As an incentive to complete and return the survey, respondents were offered entry into a contest in which they could possibly win various cash prizes. The survey was emailed as a link in a cover message in August 2015. After approximately two weeks, a total of 254 completed surveys were returned and are included in this report. When asked about their company's primary business, 60 respondents selected aggregates producer/ facility, 190 selected options associated with construction and another 4 selected "other". 25.6% 23.6% 17.7% 12.6% 9.1% 6.3% 2.8% 1.6% 0.7%
