What components are included in the cycle time of a bulldozer?
Think about what a bulldozer needs to do in a full operation.
Explain what production curves represent.
Consider how distance affects performance.
What does cycle time consist of?
Think about the different phases a dozer goes through during operation.
Corrections factors are necessary because:
What happens to performance when conditions change?
Given a bulldozer model has an ideal production rate of 40 loose cubic meters/hour with correction factors of 0.85 for visibility and 0.75 for material type, calculate the adjusted productivity.
Multiply the ideal productivity with each correction factor step-by-step.
A bulldozer working on a slope with a 10% grade shows a decrease in output to 30 loose cubic meters/hour, while a similar one working on flat ground shows 50. Calculate the correction factor for the slope.
Think about how terrain directly affects performance.
