Evaluate cost and production using a 3-cy hoe to load wet gravel into 14-cy-size trucks. Assume a bucket fill factor of 105% and that the hoe bucket swing cycle time is 24 sec. Use the information in table below, a truck net empty weight of 36,860 lb, and a rated payload of 40,000 lb. Dump time will be 1.3 min. The haul distance is 2.5 miles from the pit to the plant up a 3% grade. The rolling resistance of the haul road will be maintained at 3%. The hoe and operator cost $97 per hour, and trucks cost $49 per hour. Assume the efficiency is 60min/hr. 1- What is the truck cycle time? 2- What is the loader cycle time? 3- What is the number of trucks? 4- What is the production of the truck, if you know that the loader will control that production? 5- What is the total cost in dollars $ and in ($/Įcy)?

A bottom dump hydraulic shovel with a 5 cubic yard heaped capacity bucket is excavating in hard clay. The depth of the excavation is 12 feet. The shovel has a maximum rated digging depth of 34 feet. The haul units can be positioned so that the swing angle is 60 degrees. The job efficiency is 50 minutes per hour. Find the expected production per hour.
Two scrapers will deliver to the project 650 LCM per hour of fill material. The rolling width of the roller is 1.2m. 6 passes at 4 km/hr are required to obtain the required density. The fill material will be placed in 0.3m compacted lifts. Load factor (LF) = 0.8 and shrinkage factor = 0.85. Assume a 50-min job efficiency, determine the number of rollers required to support the scraper operation.
4. Estimate the production in compacted cubic yards per hour of a tamping foot, wheel-tractor-towed, that is compacting lifts of 8 inches with an efficiency of 85%. The effective roller width is 12 ft, and 10 passes are projected to complete the job.

The ABC Company is planning to start a new operationhauling sand to a ready-mix concrete plant. The equipmentsuperintendent estimates that the company-owned 30-yardwheel tractor scrapers can obtain 26-ton loads. He is concernedabout the high RR of the units in the sand (RR factor250 lb/ton) and the low tractive ability of the tractors on thisjob. Will traction be a problem? If so, what do you suggestto help?

Q1: A self- propelled tamping foot compactor will be used to compact a fill being constructed of clay material. Field tests have shown that the required density can be achieved with four passes of the roller operating at an average speed of 1.5 mph, the compacted lift will have a thickness of 5 inch, the roller width is 7ft, one bcy equal 0.83 compacted cubic yards, the roller production estimated for the project is 510 bey/hour. How many rollers will be required to maintain this production.
