Manhours Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the total manhours (MH) is:

\[ MH = W \times H \times D \]

Where:

\( MH \) is the Total Manhours.
\( W \) is the Number of Workers.
\( H \) is the Hours Worked Per Day.
\( D \) is the Number of Days.

What are Manhours?

Manhours represent the total amount of work performed by all workers in a specific period of time. It is a unit of measure that helps in planning and tracking the labor cost and efficiency of a project. Manhours are crucial for project management, budgeting, and scheduling, as they provide a clear picture of the labor input required for a task or project.

Example Calculation

Consider an example where:

Number of Workers (W): 10
Hours Worked Per Day (H): 8
Number of Days (D): 15

Using the formula to calculate the total manhours:

\[ MH = 10 \times 8 \times 15 = 1,200 \text{ manhours} \]

This means that the total manhours for this scenario is 1,200 manhours.
