Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Calculate the maximum load you can safely carry in a loader if the static tipping load is 15,000 kg and you are advised to use only 40% of that load for safety. What is the maximum safe weight?

💡 Hint: Be cautious with your multiplication.

Question 2

A loader is rated at 2.6 m³ capacity with a fill factor of 0.85. If the unit weight of the material is 1,750 kg/m³, determine the total weight that the loader can carry.

💡 Hint: Remember to calculate both volume and weight based on capacity.
