Question 1.
What is the ideal soil density for the bulldozer productivity curve?
Show hintHide hint
Refer to the initial conditions discussed in class.
Question 2.
Name one correction factor that affects bulldozer productivity.
Show hintHide hint
We discussed multiple factors earlier in class.
3Question 3.
What is a correction factor?
- A factor used in mathematical equations
- A number that adapts productivity estimates for real conditions
- An unrelated metric
Show hintHide hint
Think about how we adapt our estimates.
4Question 4.
Correctly adjusting productivity for soil density decreases it.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Link your understanding back to soil conditions.
Question 5.
Estimate the hourly productivity if the original expectation is 120 m³/hour, but correction factors for soil density (0.85), poor visibility (0.75) and operator skill (0.70) have to be applied.
Show hintHide hint
Multiply each correction factor by the initial productivity.
Question 6.
If a bulldozer's operational cost is 1600 rupees per hour, with a productivity of 40 bank m³/hour, calculate the unit cost per bank m³.
Show hintHide hint
This is a basic division of costs by productivity.
