Question

assume 1 meter prop support for forms and 1-8 meter safe working area. The dimension of the CF-1 is 15525mm x 2500mm and thickness 1650mm excluding the 50mm thk lean concrete. The dimension of the CF-2 is 1000mm x 2500mm and thickness of 1650mm excluding the 50mm thk lean concrete. The original soil excavated needs to be disposed. Assuming the capacity of truck to be 7 cubic meters 1. What is the volume of excavated soil? 2. How many trucks are needed to haul the soil? The soil for backfilling comes from a borrow pit. The water content of the soil in the borrow pit is 15% and its void ratio is 0.69. The swell index index is 1.2. The specification requires the backfill material to be compacted to a dry unit weight of 16 kN/m^3 3. What is the dry unit weight of the borrow pit material? 4. What is the volume of the borrow pit soil required? 5. What is the volume of borrow pit material required considering swell? 6. What is the number of truckloads of soil required for the footing foundation? 7. What is the weight of dry soil in one truck load? 8. What is the weight of water per truck load? 9. What is the degree of saturation of the soil in situation Please answer. Thank you
