You have been hired as the Project Engineer for a development company in South Florida to build 610 housing units surrounding four lakes. Since the original ground is low, you will use the limestone excavated from the lake to fill the land in order to build roads and housing pads. Your estimated fill requirements are 700,000 m', with a dry density equivalent to a voids ratio e = 0.46. The "in-situ" limestone extracted from the lakes has an e = 0.39, whereas the limestone dumped into the trucks has an e = 0.71. How many truckloads will vou need, if each truck carries 10 m³?
