In earthworks there are financial losses caused by the lack of awareness of the costs involved in the correct use of equipment during the services and the impact they cause. Therefore, this work is justified the need to understand the implication of these costs in the overall value of a construction. A literature review was carried out regarding the most important aspects on the subject in order to provide a basis for further cost analysis. Subsequently, a study of the preliminary budget of an earth dam located in Lajes/RN was carried out, from which tables and graphs were prepared that support the assessment of the financial impact that the equipment causes. It can be concluded form this study that the equipment involved in earthworks services cost a lot and optimizing its use is fundamental and of great importance to avoid financial losses during a construction.
