1.1 Assignment- constructing a new international airport

Developing and constructing a new international airport 30 KM away from the city. You have
been appointed as a planning engineer (Material and equipment) Project is to be implemented in
a phases. In phase -1. One strip of landing of 100 meter width is to be constructed in 100 days.
The scope of the work in this assignment is only as follows.

A- Cutting and dozing of 100,000- Cum. Of earth. Average height 0.75 meter.
B- Transporting of 20,000- Cum of surplus earth from site to dumping place 3 Km away
from site (Including spreading) and filling 80,000- Cum in landing strip.
C- Bringing of 3,000- Cum of sand from 20 Km (Including spreading and levelling at
site.)
D- Procurement of 150,000- Lit of bitumen. Duration of work is 30 days from 60th day
of starting of the work. Bitumen to be obtained from the refinery at Bongaigaon in
ASHAM. Lead time up to site is 45 days. Storage facility available at site is 50,000-
Lit.
Estimate total cost of work and your plan of
1- Equipment planning Procurement and deployment.
2- Ordering and replenishing of bitumen.

1.1 Description of the Equipments considered for the work

Earthmovers: These machine use for earth cutting, moving or transporting large volume
of earth. A brief description of the equipment used for excavation is reported as follows.

Here we have considered of the following machinery for the task to be executed.

1 nos. crawler mounted hydraulic excavator, TATAEX350 LCH V Super

Bucket Capacity: 1.30-1.90 m3. For excavation and loading to dump truck.
1 Nos. Motor Grader-Articulated TATA Hitachi Motor Grader TG-14 for dozing,
surface dressing, leveling spreading of sand.
5 Nos. Truck Tippers TATA HYHA 2516 for hauling of earth excess earth mass
20000 cum 3 Km away from the site & dumping of earth where filling is required
80000 cum, also to bring sand from 20 Km of volume 3000 cum.

Crawler mounted hydraulic excavator: These are single bucket

excavators names as classified according to running gear as crawler-mounted,
wheeled, walking, rail, floating and combination rubber tyres. These are used for
excavation, moving earth and loading. The benefit of crawler is that it can easily
move in any type of soil. Easily load earth to hauling machine.

Motor Grader: A grader, also commonly referred to as a road grader or a motor

grader, is a construction machine with a long blade used to create a flat surface
during the grading process. Typical models have three axles, with
the engine and cab situated above the rear axles at one end of the vehicle and a
third axle at the front end of the vehicle, with the blade in between. In certain
countries, for example in Finland, almost every grader is equipped with a second
blade that is placed in front of the front axle. Some construction personnel refer to
the entire machine as "the blade". Capacities range from a blade width of 2.50 to
7.30 m and engines from 93373 kW (125500 hp). Certain graders can operate
multiple attachments, or be used for separate tasks.

Truck Tipper - used for transporting loose material (such as sand, gravel, or
demolition waste) for construction. A typical dump truck is equipped with an open-
box bed, which is hinged at the rear and equipped with hydraulic pistons to lift the
front, allowing the material in the bed to be deposited ("dumped") on the ground
behind the truck at the site of delivery.

Asphalt Paver The asphalt paver are capable of laying large quantities of hot
asphalt and leveling it to the required condition.

Asphalt Sprayer The asphalt sprayer melts the bitumen and sprays it at the
required area. It has burner in it which can the temperature of the bitumen at over
350 degree C.

Cost Analysis:

Cost of equipment operation per hour and cost of each item of work.
Calculation of per day of work
Total quantity of earth = 1, 00,000 cum
NICMAR- SODE-GPPM 11 -216-09-14-50763-2174 Page 7
Assignment- constructing a new international airport
No. of days = 60 Days
Volume of earth to be moved per day per hour= 100000/60/10
Hence hourly production required= 166.66 cum per hour.

1- Determine of material type and bucket fill factor.

Average soil = 85 to 90%

2- Estimate of the cycle time

Referring to the suppliers equipment cycle time estimating chart
Average = 0.43 to 0.52 Minute.

3- Calculation of effective cycle per hour divide the 60 minute hour by cycle time and
adjust for availability and efficiencies.
Cycle time 0.48 Minute
Cycle/60 minute hour 60/0.48 = 125
Operator skill/ Efficiency 0.9(90%)
Machine arability 0.95 (95%)
Gen Operational efficiency 0.83 (50Min/hour)
Effective cycle per hour 125 x .9 x .95 x .83 = 89

4- Calculate the bucket capacity divide hourly production requirement by effective

cycles per hour, adjust for material density and fill factor.
Hourly production required 166 cum/hour
Effective cycle/hour 89
=Required pay load 166/89 = 1.87 cum
Material density / loose 1.6 Ton/ m3
=Bucket payload volume 1.87/1.6 = 1.17 m3
Fill factor 0.85(85%)
Nominal bucket size 1.17/.85 = 1.38m3

Hence considering TATA EX350 LCH V Super bucket Capacity: 1.30 1.90 m3

The cost breakdown structure for owning and operating cost of all the fleet equipment has
to be paid larger importance as this is the vital statistic which can make the project in to
profit and if not considered may be lead to financial loss to the project.

Equipment operation cost accounts for the three main categories of cost.
1- Owing cost

2- Operation cost

NICMAR- SODE-GPPM 11 -216-09-14-50763-2174 Page 8

Assignment- constructing a new international airport
It is cumulative some of expenses an owner experience by working a machine on the
project. It is some of expenses like fuel, lube oil expenses, grease, repair &
maintenance of machinery.

Fuel expenses are determine by the measurement of the job. This can be determine by
records of the consumption of fuel in liters per hour knowing job condition, viz. if the
soil is loose, machine can do more volume of work in comparison to the work where
the strata of soil is harder. Average hourly consumption of fuel can be calculated
directly knowing the soil properties of the project from previous recorded statistics.

Similarly the cost of lube oil and replacement of tier required can be worked out by
knowing the machine characteristic and abrasion, life of tier.

3- Wages of Equipment Operation:

Operation wages may be include in operation cost, but due to the variance of project,
it is generally practiced to keep the wages of equipment operator is separate category.
The justification behind this is, since every project may have different scheme,
sometimes operators may be in percentage and sometimes may be in the volume or
work done.

The cost should include all benefits paid by the company as per its policy.

Cost of owing can be determined by knowing

1- Estimated ownership period in years.

2- Estimated usages (Hours/year)
3- Ownership usage (Total hours)

Operating cost:
1- Fuel cost and consumption rate (Unit/hour)
2- Lube oils, Filters, Grease.
3- Tyres.
4- Repair reserve (Extended use & Basic repair)

Fuel cost can be calculated on the theoretical basis .

The resulting theoretical values must be adjusted by the time and load factore that account for
working conditions. Time factor- Actual working time of machine. Load factor percentage of
rated horsepower.
