Weight Distribution On-Highway Trucks
WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION Axle Loading Due to 5th Wheel

(omit if using a Body)
The first step in spec’ing a Truck is to understand
how the load is distributed on the Front and Rear Axles. Front Axle Load = 5th Wheel Load × (A/WB)
The load is defined as the Maximum expected weight = _______ lb
of a fully loaded Truck. That includes the Driver, Fuel, Rear Axle Load = 5th Wheel Load × (B/WB)

On-Highway Trucks GVWR and GCWR
GVWR AND GCWR Example: Front Axle Rating

GVWR = Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. This rating Expected Front Axle Load 12,420 lb
is used for a Straight Truck. Axle rated for 13,200 lb
GCWR = Gross Combination Weight Rating. This Suspension rated for 14,000 lb
rating is used for Tractors with 5th wheels.
Wheels rated for 14,000 lb
Procedure to Determine GVWR or GCWR
1) Determine the maximum expected load on each Tires rated for 13,800 lb

2) Select Axles, Suspensions, Brakes, Wheels and
Tires that are sized to take the load predicted by In this example the front axle is the lowest rated com-

ASPHALT PAVING CHARTS

These charts will assist you when trying to match plant output with paving speeds. Keep in mind when
using these charts, it will be at 100% efficiency. If you know efficiency, multiply T.P. hour × efficiency.
(Example: 75% efficiency at 300 T.P.H. – 300 × 0.75 = 225 T.P.H.)

NOTES:
1. Each tire type has a unique pressure distribution which varies with both tire inflation pressure and wheel load.
The distribution of pressure along both transverse and longitudinal profiles is rarely uniform.
2. The measurements in this table represent the peak pressures measured in a transverse profile at each of the ballast
conditions at maximum tire inflation pressure.
3. For most applications, it can be assumed that normal operation of the pneumatic compactor will result in the
ground being subjected to pressures near the maximum during at least one machine pass.

Vibratory Compactors Production Estimating
The table in this section gives production estimates for the following assumed conditions:
Compacted Layer Thickness 51 mm 2 in
Maximum Vibratory Frequency* —
Impacts Spacing 33 impacts/m 10 impacts/ft
Passes per Machine Width 2
Compacted Material Density 2483 kg/m3 155 lb/ft3
Overlap of Rolling Width 152 mm 6 in
Overhang at Lane Edge 76 mm 3 in

*Maximum vibratory frequency varies by machine, refer to table.
Table values give representative production rates for common construction widths. If the actual width falls
between two assumed widths, use the higher number to estimate production. Minor adjustments can normally be
made in the rolling method to reach this higher production: reduce overlap or overhang, increase speed, or increase
the cycle time.

SAFETY AND SERVICEABILITY
Safety plays an integral role in everything we do at
Caterpillar, from our factory floors to our service centers
to our clients’ mine sites. Caterpillar’s commitment to
safety is apparent in our product designs, which undergo
risk assessments and are designed to meet strict codes and
regulations. Stairways, walkways, platforms and access
points are incorporated throughout Cat Draglines to
ensure safe and convenient access for maintenance per-
sonnel. With safety and serviceability enhancing features
incorporated into the operator cab, structures, surfaces
and electrical equipment, among others, Cat Draglines
were designed with safety in mind.

Closed-Loop Swing Circuit models.
The Cat closed-loop swing circuit results in fast boom
lift motions during swing. The kinetic energy of the
swing motion is used during deceleration to support
driving the main and auxiliary pumps. Compared to con-
ventional open circuit systems, the Cat closed-loop swing
circuit is more energy-efficient, generates less heat and
delivers faster speeds.
The new 6020B includes an open-loop swing circuit
due to its newly designed advanced hydraulics. Utilizing
patent-pending dedicated pump flow allocation tech-
nology, hydraulic pumps are allocated to individual
circuits on demand, allowing all produced oil flow to be
translated into cylinder motion, minimizing hydraulic
inefficiencies and heat generation. To fully leverage the
advantages of this innovative technology, the open-loop
swing system was incorporated for its use of a common set
of pumps to serve all functions and the flexibility it offers
for utilization of hydraulic flow.

Ground Pressures Hydraulic
Mining Shovels
GROUND PRESSURE
The ground pressure specifies the specific weight load
transferred to the surface, and can be an indicator for
the stability against subsidence. Though such conditions
typically apply to smaller excavators in heavy earthmov-
ing operations, there could be rare instances where this
may apply in mining applications. Nevertheless, the vast
majority of hydraulic mining shovels are delivered with
standard track shoes.
The value is determined by setting the machine weight
force in relation to the ground contact area of the tracks.
Ground Contact Area
Keys
A = Width of standard track shoe
B = Track length, idler center to sprocket center
C = Overall track length, grouser bar to grouser bar
To define the ground contact area on soft ground the
following formula is applied:
2 × A × (B + (C – B) × 0.35)
Optional Track Pads

In addition to the standard track shoes, optional
track pads with different widths are available; however,
these optional track pads are only procured on machine
orders, and may therefore effect the lead time of the entire
hydraulic mining shovel. Furthermore, a front shovel
(FS) configured machine equipped with wider track pads
increases the risk of track pad damage from bucket strikes. 16

Hydraulic Bucket Selection
Mining Shovels
BUCKET SELECTION
For the durability and life expectancy of hydraulic
mining shovels, it is important to choose the correct bucket
size based on the maximum loose density of the mate-
rial to be loaded. Different bucket volumes for common
material densities are available for most models. A lose
density of 1.8 t/m³ (3030 lb/yd³) is considered standard
density and the respective bucket volume is suitable for
the majority of applications. Additional volumes are
offered in staggered increments of 0.2 t/m³ (340 lb/yd³)
and most of them are for heavier material. The follow-
ing tables show the buckets that are available ex-factory.
Rated Bucket Capacity
Basically, the total volume is a combination of the
struck capacity plus a heap on top of it. On hydraulic
mining shovels, the rated bucket capacity is calculated
with a different angle of repose for the heap of backhoe
buckets versus that of face shovel buckets. As the kine-
matics on backhoe machines allow for larger bucket
tilt angles, steaper heaps are achieved compared to face
shovel buckets. Therefore, the nominal bucket capacity Practical Bucket Capacity
is calulated on backhoe buckets with a heap of 1:1, and
on face shovel buckets with a heap of 2:1. Under real working conditions, the actual achieved
The following standards have been used to determine bucket volume, over time, is generally lower when com-
the rated bucket capacity: pared to the rated capacity. This is dependent upon various
ISO 7451 for backhoe buckets factors, such as fragmentation, bench or face height and
ISO 7546 for face shovel buckets humidity. An experienced, well-trained operator achieves
between 90 to 95% in reasonably blasted material.

PRODUCTION OVERVIEWS
As with any other piece of material handling equip-
ment, the productivity of a hydraulic mining shovel
depends on various aspects. These influencing factors
are either defined by pure machine specifications, such
as bucket capacity, or by application conditions and
operator skills, like bucket fill factor and cycle time. In
addition, there are parameters, which fall neither under
the hydrauilc mining shovel’s physical capabilities, nor
can they be controlled by the shovel operator or the
set-up of the loading area. The major factors in this cat-
egory are truck spotting time and overall job efficiency.
The following tables indicate, for a typical hydraulic
mining shovel/truck combination, the wide range of
productivity figures in t/h (tons/h) under various condi-
tions. The overall job efficiency starts at 83%, which
corresponds to 50 minutes per hour. This efficiency is
generally achievable only during a short period of time,
and could be the relevant factor for a short time produc-
tion test. However, in the long-run, efficiency tends to be
in the 65% to 75% range. The grey highlighted area illus-
trates average productivity figures which can be expected
under typical site conditions.
Furthermore, the size of the truck, and the required
number of passes to load it, has an effect on hydraulic
mining shovel productivity. The larger the truck, the
higher the hydraulic mining shovel’s productivity will be,
because unproductive truck spotting time will be reduced.

New Fusion Coupler System for 963D Track Loaders

The proven Fusion Coupler System is available for
963D machines. Key durability benefits experienced
with the wheel loader platform are now available for the
963D Track Loader.
The biggest gain for the track loader user is durability;
the Fusion coupler endures like no other. Patented dual
wedge locks pull the tool tight to the coupler and hold
it there for a solid, rattle-free fit. No rattle means no
wear, so tools last longer. The wedge lock is built to stay
tight even after thousands of tool changes. This coupler
is built to be as tough as the linkage itself, for trouble-
free performance day in and day out.
The 963D Fusion Coupler is supported by a set of

tools:
General Purpose Buckets provide good all-around

performance for stockpiling, re-handling, excavating
and bank loading. A wide bucket is available for use with
a machine that has wide gauge tracks.
Multi-Purpose Buckets have a unique four-way

action that can load, strip top soil, bulldoze, clamp pipe
or large chunks of concrete, clean up debris and many
other tasks.
Pallet Forks are an essential tool on construction job

sites. Cat Fusion Pallet Forks can be configured to allow
the tines to either swing or stay in a fixed position.
Fusion Interchangeability
The Fusion Coupler for the 963D is compatible with
most of the Fusion tools for wheel loaders, allowing
interchangeability. However, common sense must be
used as machine power envelopes and use profiles are
very different for each machine platform.
Care must be taken to get the best performance while
taking advantage of tool interchangeability. While all
Fusion couplers can pick up any Fusion tool, some tools
are less useful when used on a different type of carrier
than their design intent.
For compatibility questions, contact Cat Work Tools.

DEFINITION OF FORCES SHOWN IN TABLES THAT FOLLOW
“Pryout,” (Breakout) kilonewtons (and pounds) — the “Penetration force,” kilonewtons (and pounds) — the
maximum sustained upward force, generated by the lift maximum sustained downward force, generated by the
cylinders measured at the ripper tip. Breakout force is ripper lift cylinders measured at the ripper tip, which is
measured with the shank in the top hole, shank vertical required to raise the back end of the vehicle with the tip
and ripper full down. Breakout force may be hydrauli- on ground and the shank (pinned in the top hole) vertical.

USE OF SEISMIC VELOCITY CHARTS

The charts of ripper performance estimated by seis-
mic wave velocities have been developed from field tests
conducted in a variety of materials. Considering the
extreme variations among materials and even among
rocks of a specific classification, the charts must be rec-
ognized as being at best only one indicator of rippability.
Accordingly, consider the following precautions when
evaluating the feasibility of ripping a given formation:
— Tooth penetration is often the key to ripping suc-
cess, regardless of seismic velocity. This is partic-
u larly true in homogeneous materials such as
mudstones and claystones and the fine-grained
caliches. It is also true in tightly cemented forma-
tions such as conglomerates, some glacial tills and
caliches containing rock fragments.

and sustainability. ● Easy maintenance and clearance work.
● Use of electric drives increases safety, reduces cost and
improves underground climate and carbon footprint.
The Rock Feeder RF300 extracts ore from the draw-

point onto a Rock Mover [Hard Rock Chain Conveyor]
by a hydraulically operated push plate.
The Rock Mover RM900 is a dedicated hard rock pro-

duction conveyor that collects ore from various draw-
points. The Rock Flow Automation System (featuring
remote operation from surface) allows draw and quality
control and records operational data.

ate in both hard and soft cutting applications. Each is
configured to work in a specific seam height range —
offering the lowest heights in the industry. Our Contin-
uous Miners have the following attributes:
● Seam height options that range from 810 mm (32") to
4.7 m (15'4").
● Wide conveyors that support the production capabili-
ties of the cutting head.
● Crawlers that provide power and rimpull sufficient to
penetrate at maximum production and maintain low
ground pressures.
● Radio remote control with self diagnostic capabilities
is standard.
● Motor ratings that support both U.S. (60 Hz) and inter-
national customers.
● The option to use Variable Frequency Drive (VFD)
that uses the efficiency and traction control of AC
power in our tram motors.
● Designs that work hand in hand with other Cat Room
& Pillar products for a systems approach to production.

FACE HAULERS Features

To ensure that the high productivity of your room &
pillar operation is maintained, Caterpillar offers a line
of high-capacity, highly reliable battery-powered and
diesel-powered haulage vehicles.
Our flexible and maneuverable battery-powered face
haulers are designed to maximize the payload capac-
ity in a given seam height. They’re equipped with the
HiPac 10 VFD Drive System that delivers shorter cycle
times while increasing the work performed per battery
discharge. Operators have a clear view to the front and
back of the machine and are protected by a thick steel
cage. Controls are ergonomically placed for ease of
operation, and the operator can simply swivel their head
when changing direction.
Our diesel haulers are designed for maximum haulage
capacity on difficult floor conditions or gradients. These
haulers comply with current regulations pertaining to
fire shutdown, exhaust emission sampling and brake
standards, and use the same power package and drive
components as the range of LHD machines increasing
your parts flexibility and use.
Face Haulage Features Include:

● Rugged, reliable drive unit with chainless drive system
● Responsive hydraulic steering with true tracking geom-
etry for maneuverability
● Optional turbocharged and aftercooled diesel engine
with a 4-speed transmission
● Manual or electronic push-button powershift with
forward and reverse modes.

What are you loading? Conveyors, haul vehicles, hoppers, etc.?
If loading conveyors or drums — what are the feed capacities, FPS rate?
How much storage capability in your building?
What type of loading are you performing?
How much reach is required for stockpiling and loading?
“Other" required operations that the machine might perform?
Additional Considerations
All facilities are different and require special considerations when ordering and specifying tools and equipment. If tonnage and operating hours change, then
tool and machine might change. Machine weight has to balance power to ground for best traction on slick floors. Keep in mind Task, Tool, Machine. (What
type of work will the machine be asked to perform during the shift? What tool(s) will apply to that type of work cycle? What machine fits to that type of tool?)
It should be noted that most of the wheel loaders being sold into MRF, Sorting and Transfer Stations are high lift. This arrangement offers increased reach and
lift height not only for loading and stockpiling, but in case the haul vehicle has to be brought to the same level as the machine to be loaded.

LANDFILL ESTIMATING Example Problem #2

Existing landfill has been in operation for several years.
Example Problem #1 Assume:
A professional engineer has developed a small, rural Type of operation: area fill
landfill master plan. The local legislative regulatory Cover material: suitable material within 90 m (300 ft)
agency has approved the plan and site. Current daily refuse volume: 500 metric tons (550 tons)
Assume: Anticipated daily refuse volume in 3 years:
Waste generation: 2.04 kg/day (4.5 lb/day) per person 680 metric tons (750 tons)
Waste collection: 6 days/week Type of refuse: household, commercial, large amount
Topography: flat of brush and building demolition debris
Land availability: Land availability: limited, very expensive
area has several suitable sites at nominal price Available Refuse Volume: 3 249 125 m3 (4,250,000 yd3)

Projected population in 3 years: 40,000 Present equipment: D8 (3 years old)

mined to be 2.04 kg/day (4.5 lb/day) per person × g. What size should they be?
30,000 people = 61.2 metric tons (67.5 tons) daily.
You must now multiply that daily generation rate by
7 for the total weekly generation, and divide by the
number of days that the waste is collected (6). There-
fore, your waste collection per day will be (61.2 tons/
day × 7 days)/6 days of collection = 71.4 metric
tons (78.7 tons) collected daily.
The same equation can be used to determine the
three year projected waste stream of 40,000 resi-
dents to be 81.6 metric tons (90 tons) generated
daily, 95.2 metric tons (105 tons) collected each day.

Soil Compactors Compaction Fundamentals
COMPACTION FUNDAMENTALS Experience has shown that it is very difficult, if not

impossible, to achieve proper compaction in materials
The following discussion applies to soil compaction
that are too dry or too wet. Soil experts have determined
only.
that in practically every soil there is an amount of water,
Definition called optimum moisture content, at which it is possible
Compaction is the process of physically densifying to obtain maximum density with a given amount of
or packing the soil … resulting in increased weight per compactive effort. The curve below shows this relation-
unit volume. It is generally accepted that the strength ship between dry density and moisture content. It is
of a soil can be increased by densification. Three impor- called a compaction curve, moisture-density curve or
tant factors affect compaction. Proctor curve.
— Material gradation
— Moisture content
MOISTURE CONTENT
— Compactive effort
Material Gradation — refers to the distribution (% by Maximum
weight) of the different particle sizes within a given soil Density
sample. A sample is well-graded if it contains a good, Dry Density ▶
even distribution of particle sizes. A sample composed
of predominantly one size particle, is said to be poorly-
graded. In terms of compaction, a well-graded soil will
compact more easily than one that is poorly-graded. In
well-graded material the smaller particles tend to fill the
empty spaces between the larger particles, leaving fewer Optimum
voids after compaction. Moisture
MATERIAL GRADATION Moisture Content ▶
Compactive Effort — refers to the method employed

by a compactor to impart energy into the soil to achieve
compaction. Compactors are designed to use one or a
combination of the following types of compactive effort.
— Static weight (or pressure)
Poorly-graded Well-graded — Kneading action (or manipulation)
— Impact (or sharp blow)
Moisture Content — or the amount of water present — Vibration (or shaking)
in a soil, is very important to compaction. Water lubricates
soil particles thus helping them slide into the most dense
position. Water also creates clay particle bonding, giving
cohesive materials their sticky qualities.

Heavy clay 17.5%
Silty clay 15.0%
Sandy clay 13.0%
Sand 10.0%
