Enter the required hours to complete the project and the available time for the project (hrs) into the Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Load Rate. 

Load Rate Formula

LR = RH / AT * 100

Variables:

  • LR is the Load Rate (%)
  • RH is the required hours to complete the project
  • AT is the available time for the project (hrs)

To calculate Load Rate, divide the hours required to complete the project by the total available time, then multiply by 100.

How to Calculate Load Rate?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Load Rate.


  1. First, determine the required hours to complete the project. 
  2. Next, determine the available time for the project (hrs). 
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = LR = RH / AT * 100.
  4. Finally, calculate the Load Rate.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

required hours to complete the project = 780

available time for the project (hrs) = 900
