work formula

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering
This is an article about different methods of pavement rehabilitation. This section describes tests that should be carried before beginning the actual work. Here is the context.
Antes de iniciar la ejecución de la obra y una vez aprobada la fórmula de trabajo, se realizarán tramos de prueba para cada tramo homogéneo. La prueba debe realizarse con el mismo equipo que vaya a ejecutar las obras.

Spanish term (edited): fórmula de trabajo

work method

Without more context, it's hard to know if it's method (a way of working) or formula (ingredients for the pavement) in English. I think it's the former.

fórmula. (Del lat. formŭla).
1. f. Medio práctico propuesto para resolver un asunto controvertido o ejecutar algo difícil.
