Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A loader bucket has a capacity of 3.0 m³ and is used to load material with a filling factor of 0.85. If the material weighs 1600 kg/m³, calculate the total weight of the load and assess if it's within limits if the tipping load is 7000 kg.

💡 Hint: Think about how to calculate weight using volume and density.

Question 2

If a track-mounted loader has a tipping load of 8000 kg, what is the maximum safe operating load? Discuss what factors might necessitate a lower operating load in practice.

💡 Hint: Remember the safety margins discussed.
