The quarrying cost of marble and granite blocks plus the delivery cost to the processing plant is ₱9,600 per cubic meter. The processing cost of marble into tiles is ₱800 per square meter and that of granite into tiles also is ₱2,400 per square meter. Marble has a net yield of 40 square meters of tiles per cubic meter of block and sells at ₱1600 per square meter, and granite gives a net yield of 50 square meters of tiles per cubic meter of block and sells at ₱4,000 per square meter. Considering all other costs to be the same, determine the more profitable material and by how much.

Pricing Concrete Work

The concrete work in a project usually holds a high-end cost in terms of cost and value of the work. It becomes an important step in calculating the cost associated with concrete while preparing the project scale. The cost of making concrete depends on the cost of building materials, mixed materials, labor, and machinery. A concrete contractor builds structures from concrete, usually managing all the steps of the process from assembling ingredients to building a holding structure and preparing the mixture. This person or team oversees the delivery and unloading of goods to ensure that they are done properly. Nowadays, most of the concrete in the United States comes from manufacturers working abroad, usually with branches and plants within the provinces. Contributions can range from pre-mixed concrete to basic ingredients, the consumer company then mixes it. Many American-based concrete companies, however, offer concrete products, such as ballads, bricks, countertop, concrete pipe, and building products, as well as concrete construction and installation materials. This article covers both types of suppliers for this set of building materials.
