Abstract
A technique is discussed which allows an estimator to calculate the fleet production rate of scrapers or trucks and include the effect of operator efficiency, machine interference, and machine availability. The main purpose of this technique is to supplement the experience of the estimator and permit him to make quicker and more accurate appraisals of equipment utilization and requirements.
