Question:

The ABC Company is planning to start a new operation hauling sand to a ready-mix concrete plant. The equipment superintendent estimates that the company-owned 30-yard wheel tractor scrapers can obtain 26-ton loads. He is concerned about the high RR of the units in the sand (RR factor 250 lb/ton) and the low tractive ability of the tractors on this job. Will traction be a problem? If so, what do you suggest to help?
