KASCADE-Grande extends the former KASCADE experiment by a large area scintillator array (0.5 km2 ) for the detection of the charged component of extensive air showers. Its goal is to reconstruct the primary energy and composition of cosmic rays up to energies of 1018 eV thereby allowing a detailed investigation of the expected ironknee. Knowing the shower core and size as well as its direction from the Grande array the KASCADE detectors allow the determination of the muon number above different energy thresholds. We present the accuracy of the shower reconstruction methods based on CORSIKA simulations. Implications to the discrimination power of the obtained parameters with respect to the nature of the primary particles will be considered.
