Balancing the Mass Haul: Earthworks Optimization for Road Transportation Projects

Aug 25, 2022

This webinar focused on details about the mass haul diagram, and its more sophisticated relative, the Opti Haul diagram.

The webinar discussed:
 

  • Example Intro
  • Conventional Mass Haul Basics
  • Total Cut and Fill
  • Mass haul for Material Movement
  • Stripping (over burden removal), Ground Types (Sub Surface Horizons) and Fill Types
  • Material movement by type and Quality – Optihaul
  • Expansion and Compaction Factors
  • Pits
  • Costs
  • Balance by hand
  • Balance with Optimal
  • Assigning sub surface surfaces
  • Including other materials in balance, costs, and optimization
  • Assigning optimization standards by station.
