Earth whose in situ weight is 110 lb

per cf and compacted weight is 124 lb per cf is placed in a fill at
the
rate of 280 cy per hr, measured as compacted earth. The
thickness of the compacted layers is 8 in. A
tractor pulls a towed
sheepsfoot roller having drums, 6 ft wide, at a speed of 1.4 mph.
Assume a 50-
min-hour operating efficiency. Determine the number of
drums required to provide the necessary
compaction if four drum
passes are specified for each layer of earth.

3. A 5-cy shovel with maximum digging height of 35-ft is used to excavate 370,000 bcy of common
earth. The average height of excavation will be 15-ft, and the average angle of swing will be 120°.
Assume the efficiency factor to be 50-min hour and appropriate-size haul unit can be used with the
shovel. Calculate the number of 8-hours days required to complete the work.
