This workbook is for equipment operator apprentices, grade checkers, laborers on excavation crews and anyone moving up on a dirt job. It covers the math you use every day: reading decimal feet, working grade stakes and a laser, figuring slopes and trench yardage, allowing for swell and shrink, keeping trucks moving, estimating machine production and pricing the work.

  • A short lesson and worked examples at the start of every unit
  • Practice problems drawn from real jobsite situations
  • A full answer key, with every answer calculated and checked by computer

For practice and study. Always follow your plans, manufacturer instructions, local codes and your instructor or supervisor.
