Abstract:

The objectives of this study were to workout output of Pneumatic tired Vibratory Roller considering different job and management factors. With the increased emphasis on road and growth in road network, the technological development and mechanization is taking place rapidly. Compaction is an important activity in road construction. Output of a compaction equipment is equipment productivity which is a measure of the performance of the equipment. It is expressed as the output achieved per equipment hour. The higher the output the better is the productivity. Equipment productivity tells how many units of output, the equipment produces in an hour. It depends on the job conditions & management conditions as well as the operators skill, persistence and co-ordination with other construction forces. To workout output of Pneumatic tired Vibratory Roller, two different sites were selected. Hourly output and volumetric capacity were calculated based on field observation data.
