Question 1

What is the primary purpose of applying correction factors to bulldozer productivity estimates?

  • To increase costs
  • To adapt ideal conditions to real-world conditions
  • To reduce labor costs

💡 Hint: Think about why we would need to change ideal assumptions.

Question 2

True or False: A higher soil density always decreases bulldozer productivity.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider the work the bulldozer has to do based on material weight.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

During a bulldozer’s operation, the soil density was unexpectedly high, leading to a productivity drop to 70 loose meter cube per hour. If correction factors led to a 15% lower output from the estimated 100 loose meter cube per hour, calculate the adjustment made.

💡 Hint: Think about re-calculating with factors that affect the productivity further.

Question 2

An excavation project requires calculating the total cost given a bulldozer with a unit cost of Rs. 26.06 per bank meter cube was used for 200 bank meter cubes. Calculate total project cost.

💡 Hint: Focus on simple multiplication for total project expenses.
