Selection, planning and Matching Construction Equipment

As mentioned in Unit, each construction equipment is specifically designed by the manufacturer to perform certain mechanical operations and since every equipment has different operational characteristics, it is not always obvious which machine is the most suitable for a particular work. For example, what is less expensive to make an excavation with scrapers or to top-load trucks with a dragline ? Both equipment may yield same end result but which is the most economical proposition ? 

To find the answer of this question, the planner draws an initial plan of employment of both the equipment. The planner also calculates both equipment's production rate and the associated resulting cost. Finally, the type of equipment having the lowest estimated total cost is selected for the task. 

In this unit, you will learn about the various procedures for selecting, planning and matching of construction equipment.
