Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Analyze a hypothetical construction project located at 12,000 feet elevation. What adjustments should a project manager make regarding machinery choice and operation due to altitude effects?

💡 Hint: Consider how altitude impacts both engine performance and machinery specifications.

Question 2

Assume a machine is designed to carry out its maximum capacity at sea level. How would the manager determine the maximum load it can handle at a project site located at 7,000 ft, accounting for a 10% performance drop?

💡 Hint: Remember to calculate the capacity change due to performance loss.
