Calculate the cost per cubic yard to place concrete using each of the alternatives described. The work in both cases consists of placing 140 cubic yards of concrete in footings. a. Using a crane and bucket at a price of $225 per hour, including an operator, with a crew consisting of 6 laborers, a cement finisher, and a foreman. The concrete will be placed in 7 hours using this setup, and transportation of the crane costs $390. b. Using a concrete pump at a price of $295 per hour, including an operator and a crew consisting of 5 laborers, a cement finisher, and a foreman. With this setup, concrete is placed in 6 hours and transportation of the pump costs $290.

A cement grinding mill "A" with a capacity of 50 tons per hour employs P12,000 per tonforged steel grinding balls with a wear rate of 100 grams per ton of cement processed.Another cement mill of the same capacity, "B," utilizes P50,000 per ton high chromesteel grinding balls with a wear rate of 20 grams per ton of cement processed.Determine the more cost-effective grinding mill, keeping all other factors constant. do not use excel, use formula
You are given the following information about a dry-batchpaving operation. You are going to use one mixer that has aservice rate of 30 services per hour. The dry-batch trucksyou use for bringing concrete to the paver have an arrivalrate of 7.5 arrivals per hour. Each truck carries 6 cubic yardsof concrete. You have a total amount of 13,500 cubic yardsof concrete to pour. You rent a truck at $15 per hour and thepaver at $60 per hour. If the job takes more than 80 hours,you pay a penalty of $140 per hour owing to delays in jobcompletion. On the basis of least cost, determine the numberof trucks you should use. Plot the cost versus the numberof trucks used.
