About This Course
 This course is
designed for engineering personnel responsible for planning, designing, and
constructing earthworks. It gives estimated production rates,
characteristics, operation techniques, and soil considerations for
earthmoving equipment. The course demonstrates how to select the most
economical and effective equipment for each individual operation. This
course also discusses the complete process of estimating equipment
production rates. However, learners are encouraged to use their
experience and data from other projects in estimating production rates.
The material in this course applies to all
construction equipment regardless of make or model. The equipment cited
here are examples only. Information for production calculations should
be obtained from the operator and maintenance manuals for the make and
model of the equipment actually being used on the site.
