Tractor Trailer/Heavy Equipment Estimatics

This five-day course teaches students what they need to know to write estimates on Tractor Trailers and Heavy Equipment.

Students will spend the first two days learning about tractor trailers, with an emphasis on tractors, nomenclature, estimating guides, cab and body construction and wear items. The third and fourth days focus solely on heavy equipment including bull dozers, backhoes, cranes and graders. The final day wraps everything up.

Students should understand how to write estimates or have taken Vale’s Auto Estimatics course. Students should also have computers with estimating software included.
