Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A loader has a rated capacity of 3.0 m³ and you're using clay with a fill factor of 0.7. Calculate the weight of clay it can hold if it’s 1500 kg/m³.

💡 Hint: Use weight = volume x density.

Challenge 2 Hard

Design a loading plan considering a wheel loader that should not exceed 50% of a static tipping load of 9000 kg, including the different materials it will handle.

💡 Hint: Calculate using fill factors for each material type.
