الملخص

 his study involves the development of expert systems software to present the necessary experience covering the variotrs cases of the earth-moving plant selection and management. These parts of information have been inserted to the system are from experts' experience, previous researches and literatures rulated to the policy of earthmoving plant.

The designed expert system allows storing new experiences and equipment easily, it has high degree of flexibility and modification. As a result, this system helps the engineer at the construction site to take decision by him self. It can be used as a training tool for young civil engineering students to justiff their equipment selection. Also, the system provided with visualization cornponent to help inexperience engineers to grasp complicated concepts and visualize a construction method without visiting construction sites. The video effects of various tvpes of earthmoving equipment during earthmoving operation were integrated to the system.
