A typical bucket has a volume ranging from 40 to 80 cubic yards (30 to 60 cubic metres), though extremely large buckets have ranged up to 220 cubic yards (168 cubic meters). [12] The length of the boom ranges from 45 to 100 metres (148 to 328 ft). In a single cycle, it can move up to 450 tons of material.
The D11N had some major improvements over the D10: it includes a bigger track and blade, and a longer track by 21 inches (0.53 m). The U blade was just under 21 feet (6.4 m) wide and 7 feet (2.1 m) high. This increased the blade capacity to 45 cu yd (34 m 3). The D11N's weight was 204,517 pounds (92,767 kg).

Truck drivers are responsible for checking bridge height ...
The vehicle is a 30 m (98 ft) long truck trailer combination with a gross weight exceeding 90 tonnes (89 long tons; 99 short tons). It is estimated that this will give a 20% lower cost and 20–25% CO 2 emissions reduction compared to the regular 60-tonne (59-long-ton; 66-short-ton) truck combinations.
