Construction Estimate 1 — 1. EXCAVATION Excavation is the process of loosening and removing earth rock from its original position in a cut and transporting it to a fill or to a waste deposit: To estimate the volume of excavation, compute the area to be excavated then multiply by the depth: There are several formulas for excavation volume. For cut and fill ‘excavation, we can use any of the following formula, Volume = % ( A'+ A?) x Depth (or Length) Volume = Length x Width x Height (or Depth) TABLE 1-1 ANGLE OF REPOSE ‘Type of Materials © APProximate Slope Angle of Repose Weight (AB) @) Absit) ‘Sand - Dry 1:2.80 ~ 1:1.40 20~35 90~110 Sand - Moist 1:14.75 ~ 1:1.00 30~ 45 100 ~ 110 ‘Sand - Wet 21.20 20~40 110 ~ 120 Ordinary Earth - Dry 11.00 20~ 45 80~ 100 Ordinary Earth - Moist 31.00 25~45 80 ~ 100 Ordinary Earth - Wet 25~30 100 ~ 120 Gravel 30~48 100 ~ 135, Gravel, Sand, Clay 20~30 100 ~ 115 SOURCE: CONSTRUCTION ESTIMATE MADE EASY BY R.N.

CEMENT Hydraulic Cement - _ is a bonding agent that reacts with water to form a stone-like substance that is resistant to disintegration in water. Portland Cement - Portland cement is not a brand but a type of hydraulic cement. It is most widely used in various small and large construction including roads: and highways. The American Society for Testing and Materials has established specifications and there are five ASTM Types of Portland Cement, namely: ‘Type—1 - general-purpose cement used in general construction where special properties are specified. ‘Type-—il - used in general concrete construction exposed to moderate sulfate action or where moderate heat of hydration is required. Type-ll- is a high-early strength cement that attains its design strength in a period of a week or less. Type-IV- a low-heat cement is specified when heat rise during hydration is a - critical factor or a high sulfate resistance is required. Pozzolan Cement - _ is an amorphous silica that hardens as a silica gel by reacting chemically with alkali in the presence of water. 5.2. AGGREGATES ‘The materials held together by the paste formed cement and water are the aggregates. It is desirable to have a mixture of fine and coarse grains, for graded aggregate will produce a more compact, hence stronger, concrete. Fine Aggregates__- is generally the product of natural disintegration of silica- bearing or calciunbearing rock. it is smaller than % in. in diameter. Common specification requires that not less than 95 to 100% shall pass the No.4 sieve and not more than 30 nor less than 10% shall pass the No. 50 sieve. Coarse Aggregates - _ materials larger than % in. in diameter are coarse aggregates. ‘The sizes vary from % to 3 in., the maximum for reinforced concrete being 1 or 1% in. It will usually constitute approximately 50 to 60% of the total aggregate. The total fine and coarse aggregate together generally occupy 60 to 80% of the volume of the concrete. 5.3. MIXING CONCRETE For a job-mixed concrete, mixing shall be done in a batch mixer of approved type. The mixer shall be rotated at a speed recommended speed by the manufacturer and mixing shall be continued for at least +:5 minutes after all materials are in drum, unless a shorter time is shown to be satisfactory by the criteria of Specifications for Ready Mixed Concrete for central mixers. (Source : ACI Building Code ) Construction Estimate 7 —_ ‘When mixing is done at the site or in a central mixing plant, the mixing time should not be less than 50 seconds nor more than 90 seconds. ‘The flow of water should be uniform that all water shall be inside the drum by the end of the first 15 seconds of the mixing period. Mixed concrete from the central mixing plant shall be transported in truck mixers. The time elapsed from the time water is added to the mix until the concrete is deposited in place at the site shall not exceed 45 minutes when the concrete is hauled in non- agitating trucks, nor 90 minutes when hauled in truck mixers except in hot weather conditions. Re-tempering concrete by adding water or by any other means shall not be permitted, except that when concrete is delivered by truck mixers, additional water may be added to the batch materials and additional mixing is performed to increase the slump to meet the requirements if permitted by the engineer, provided that all these operations are performed within 45 minutes after the initial mixing operation and water-cement ratio is not exceeded. 5.4. CONCRETE PLACEMENT Concrete should be deposited as near as possible to the expansion and contraction joints without disturbing them, but shall be dumped from discharge bucket or hopper into joint assembly unless the hopper is well centered on the joint assembly. Vibrators should not be allowed to come in contact with a joint assembly, grade or side form. In no case it be operated longer than 15 seconds in any one location. 5.5. DESIGNING CONCRETE MIX BY WEIGHT METHOD Using this method of material proportioning, the specific gravity (SG) of cement, sand, and gravel at obtained. The concrete mixture air content to be within the range of 2.5~4.5 %. i ‘The sand-aggregate ration (S/A) is also assumed as within the 45.0~48.0 % range. This assumed value would determine the workability of the mixture in wherein the workability is inversely proportional to the S/A ratio selected. In determining the water-cement ratio (WIC), the Japan society of Civil Engineers (JSCE) water-cement ratio formula was adopted, 4 fer = > st’ 4- [3v /100(3)'"7) Where: V = varying coefficient (%), 9% and below fer’ = = = 161/245 (CMV) {kat/cm?) fo" = design concrete strength (psi) CAV = _ inverse WIC ratio (%) Construction Estimate 8 —_————$—$__—_ — Sample Design ‘As an example, let us determine the concrete mix proportions for a concrete batch with a required strength of 3500 psi @ 28 days.

Using the computed design ratio (WIC) = 0.512 CEMENT = 184/0.512 = 359.3~360 kg/m?

GRAVEL = % saoreoares X % arava. X SG craves = 0677 x 052x273 = 961 kg/m? To determine the amount of Polyheed-R1 to be used, the product brochure recommends 0.588~0.780 % of the design cement amount. The SG of Polyheed-R1 = 1.17. In this case we assume the amount to be 0.700 % of the cement factor, thus, POLYHEED-R1 = .007 x360 = 2.62 liters /m? Converting to kg/m, we apply the SG of the admixture, thus, POLYHEED-R1 = 2.82liters/m? x 4.17 = 2.95 kg/m® To determine the amount of Micro-Air 303A to be used, the product brochure recommends this Air Entraining admixture to be first diluted using a mix of, 40.cc:303A + 990 ccwater = 1000 cc diluted 303A ‘The dosage recommended is 0.003% of the design cement amount.

TEST OF CONCRETE The various test conducted are: 1. Slump Test — is the test applied to maintain and determine the degree of consistency of the concrete mixture. a. Place the freshly mixed concrete inside the mold in 3 layers. Each layer is rodded separately 25 times by a 16 mm diameter rod. Level the mold and lift at once. - — 7 Measure the slump action immediately by getting the difference in height between the height of the mold and the top of the slumped concrete.

Compression Test — is the process applied to determine the strength of concrete. For a coarse aggregate not more than 5 cm diameter, prepare a cylindrical ‘specimen 15 cm and 30 cm long. (For a coarse aggregate more than 5 cm diameter, cylindrical specimen diameter is 3x the maximum size of the aggregate and height is double its diameter. Mold shall be made of metal placed on a plane surface preferably from 6~12mm thick plate. Place concrete inside mold in 3 separate equal layers rodded separately 25 strokes with 16mm diameter rod. Level the surface with trowel and cover with a glass or plane steel. After 4 hours, cover specimen with thin layer of cement paste and cover again with plane steel or glass. After 24 hours, curing shall be made in a moist atmosphere at 21"centigrade. Test should be done at 7 and 28 days period. ‘Specimen is placed under testing machine, then a compressive load is applied until the specimen fails. The load that causes the failure is recorded. ‘The recorded load divided by the cross sectional area of the cylinder gives the ultimate compressive unit stress of the sample. 5.9. WEIGHT OF CONCRETE ‘There are three types of concrete according to their weight : 1. Light-Weight Concrete — is classified into three types depending upon the kind of aggregates used which predetermine their weight. b. Low Density Concrete — employed for insulation purposes. Unit weight rarely exceeds 800 kg/m*, Moderate Strength Concrete ~ used commonly to fill over light gauge steel floor panels. Unit weight of 360-860 kg/m” with compressive “strength of 70-176 kgi Structural Concrete - widely used in buildings, roads, bridges, etc.. Unit weight of 1,400~1,820 kg/m? 2. Medium Stone Concrete — is used as structural concrete. Weight is from 2,325~2,435kg/m?. 3. Heavy Weight Concrete - is used as shield against gamma rays reactor and other similar structures. It is also used as counter weight for a lift bridge. Contents area cement, heavy iron ores, crushed rocks, steel! scraps, punchings or shot as fine aggregate. b.
