Q- A tractor has a permissible loaded speed of 200 m/minute, which can increase by 25% when the load is removed/deposited. Generally, it is operated at 80% of the permissible speed (loaded unloaded). It works at a location where haul distance is 120 m. Rest allowance per round-trip is taken as 50 seconds on an average. Fixed time per trip, for loading and unloading and turnaround, etc., is 30 seconds. What is its effective cycle time?

Q3: - The new Ring Road that will be constructed in Basrah Governorate is expected to serve AADT of 75000 veh/day. Assuming that a 60/40 directional split (60% in the peak direction), a design hour factor (K) is 12% and the traffic composition includes 75% passenger cars and 25% trucks. Assume truck = 2 pcu, normal growth rate 30% for all design period, generated growth 20%, development growth 250% and Ideal capacity 1000 cu/hr/lane. Determine number of lanes needed for 0-60% the design of this roadway.

5- Traffic volume study was conducted in a section of road in month of April the following information's was obtained ( HEF=18, POV =650 veh/h, total weekly volume =72450 veh/week, total yearly volume = 23770 veh lyear, MEF =1/2 DEF). So, the ADT of this month? (Assume total daily volume = average daily volume) * O 7923 veh 850 veh 660 veh O 1240 veh
A crawler dozer with (3.2 x 1 y) blade will be used in dozing operation. The martial is a dry Gravel and is to be moved a distance of (300 ft) with a pushing speed of (3 Km/h) and returning speed of (8 Km/h); the job efficiency is assumed to be 45 min/hr. Calculate the cost of moving bank cubic yard if the O&O cost of the dozer is (65 $/h) and the operator wage is (15 $/h). assume the maneuver time is equal to (0.35 min)?
