Existing studies relative to enhancing sustainability of earth-work are mainly involved in the performance of construction equipments. They assume that there is no variation of the engine power and fuel consumption and classify the dozer operation into working and idle conditions. They enable to find the most eco-friendly equipment fleet deployment plan. However, they are confined in that they do not provide a measure to assess the sustainability of the operation plan and suggest optimal alternative(s). This paper presents a method that identifies an optimal dozer operation plan that assures sustainability by reducing fuel consumption of the equipment. The method computes the dozer operation productivity using engine-torque-output map provided by equipment manufacturers. Indeed, it identifies the eco-dozing operation that minimizes fuel consumption and maximizes the target productivity.
