Question 1

What is the purpose of a correction factor?

  • To increase productivity
  • To adjust ideal estimates to real conditions
  • To measure cost directly

💡 Hint: Think about how ideal conditions may differ from actual operations.

Question 2

True or False: Higher soil density always increases bulldozer productivity.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider how pushing heavy material impacts efficiency.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given an ideal production rate of 200 m³/hr, an operator skill factor of 0.8, visibility of 0.7, and a soil density adjustment of 0.75, calculate the final productivity.

💡 Hint: Multiply the ideal values by each correction factor sequentially to find the answer.

Question 2

A contractor expects to push 160 m³/hr ideally, but adverse weather worsens visibility to 0.6 and requires a skilled operator. How should the contractor adjust their expectations?

💡 Hint: Consider all factors affecting performance when calculating expected outcomes.
