Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A construction site uses back-track loading, with an average return time of 8 minutes and load time of 5 minutes. If they switch to chain loading, predict the potential time savings in completing a cycle.

💡 Hint: Compare the total cycle times of both methods.

Question 2

If a project requires 100 loads and the pusher cycles every 3 minutes, how many scrapers would ideally be needed to keep up with this pace without delays?

💡 Hint: Break down the problem into required cycles and the time taken.
