The CHECKRATE program has been developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Walla Walla District, Cost Engineering Branch (CENWW-ED-C) to calculate equipment rates using the methodology required by EP1110-1-8, Construction Equipment Ownership and Operating Expense Schedule. The requester must have Microsoft Excel for Windows, Version 4.0A or newer, to run the application.  A copy of the EP 1110-1-8, Construction Equipment Ownership and Operating Expense Schedule is also required.  The factors needed in the calculation of the hourly costs are located in the EP 1110-1-8 Appendixes.
