Maintenance of 3 km of haul road requires cleaning the ditches, and leveling and
reshaping the roadway. Use effeciency factor of 60%. Cleaning the ditches requires
two passes in first gear(3.7 kph); leveling the road requires two passes in second
gear (6.0 kph); and final shaping of the road requires three passes in fourth gear
(15.6 kph). What is the total time?

1.equipment owners must carefully analyze and aswer two separate cost questions
about their machines:
How much doe it cost to operate the machine on a project?
What is the optimum economic life and the optimum manner to secure a machine?

1. What is a DOZER?

DOZERS ARE CLASSIFIED ON THE BASIS OF RUNNING GEAR EITHER:

CRAWLER TYPE
WHEEL TYPE

scraper production cycle

-loading
-haul travel
-dumping and spreading
-turning
-return travel
-turning and position to pick-up another load (reload)

small trucks advantages

-manuevering flexibility
-speed
-production
-balance of fleet

large trucks advantages

-Number Few
-Drivers few
-loading advantage
-positioning time

-percussion
-rotary grinding
-abrasion
