Download or read book Construction Equipment Management written by John E. Schaufelberger and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-27 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised and updated edition of Construction Equipment Management fills a gap on this subject by integrating both conceptual and hands-on quantitative knowledge on construction equipment into a process that facilitates student learning. The first six chapters summarize interdisciplinary concepts that are necessary to ground students' learning on construction equipment management, including both engineering and economics. Each of the next 16 chapters covers a different type of construction equipment and associated methods of use. The final chapter introduces the more advanced concept of operation analysis. This allows the book to be used on numerous courses at different levels to prepare graduates to apply skills on construction equipment when planning for a new project, estimating its costs, and monitoring field operations. Organized around the major categories of construction equipment, including both commercial and heavy civil examples, case studies, and exercises, this textbook will help students develop independence in applying concepts to hands-on scenarios. A companion website provides an instructor manual, solutions, additional examples, lecture slides, figures, and diagrams.

Book excerpt: Construction Equipment and Methods: Planning, Innovation, Safety fosters engineers who are information literate and able to approach complex engineering and managerial problems with confidence and skill. Students of this text will fully appreciate the practical aspects of being a construction engineer and manager, the dual nature—both technical and managerial—of the responsibilities. The text helps build these skills through: a cohesive view of construction technology, its safe use to maximize productivity, and how the principles of science are being applied; linking the material in this course to their previous courses (such as statics or geotechnical engineering); and pedagogy designed to promote knowledge, and skill acquisition, such as case studies and open-ended problems. Students will be engaged by relevant subject matter, informed by the author’s hands-on research in advanced technologies, mechatronics, robotics, ergonomics/safety, etc.The wide variety of pedagogical devices in the text will appeal to all different learning styles, and provide teachers with more opportunities and resources to get students to reflect about what they are learning, to connect the new to their past experiences, and to understand its relevance to their future.

Download or read book Payline written by Oscar H. Will, III and published by Motorbooks. This book was released on 2007-02 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To many people, a wheel loader is called a PayLoader, thanks to the dominance of the classic rubber-tired, hydraulic front-end loader first developed by the Frank G. Hough company in 1944. When International Harvester acquired Hough and combined it with its struggling construction equipment division in 1974, PayLine was born, with the PayLoader as its signature machine. This book tells the story of PayLine, which marked the high point of International Harvester's foray into construction equipment. Oscar H. Will III chronicles the company's early efforts, its success with machines ranging from the PayLoader to the PayHauler, and it's expansion right up to its sale to Dresser Industries in 1982. With attention to each particular model, including history, specifications, market position, and color photographs of these mighty machines at work, this book is a fitting tribute to International Harvester's giants in the earth, and a critical chapter in the story of American industry.
