In natural state, a soil weighs 3500 lb/cy. The same soil has a load factor of 0.83. a. What is the unit weight of the soil in its loose state? b. A contractor has seven (7) Caterpillar 725 articulating trucks available to haul this same soil to a project that requires 55,000 ccy of the soil. In the compacted state, the soil weighs 4300 lb/cy. Each Caterpillar 725 has a maximum haul capacity of 17 lcy. Currently the project schedule only accounts for each truck hauling no more than 550 loads to the site. Based on the maximum capacity of the Caterpillar 725, can this schedule requirement be met?
