For a project, your company needs to haul away 1,450 bank cubic yards (bcy) of soil. If the soil has a swell of 25 percent, how many loose cubic yards (lcy) of soil will need to be hauled? How many truckloads are required to haul the soil offsite if each truck can haul nine loose cubic yards?
What will be an ideal response?
Determine the volume of the haul and the number of loads as follows:
Cubic yards of haul (lcy) = 1,450 bcy × (1 + 0.25) = 1,812 lcy
Loads = 1,812 lcy / 9 lcy per load = 202 loads
