Assuming the crew consists of a site engineer, foreman, mason, and four daily
laborers and a productivity of 0.50 m3 per hr:
Site Engineer = 4,000 Birr/ Month / ( 22 days * 8 hrs/day) = 1/10 = 0.1 ( Assuming 10 foreman 2.27
= 22.73 Birr/hr underSite Engineer)
Foreman = 60 Birr/Day * 1/8 Day/ hr = 7.50 Birr/ hr = 1/4 = 0.25 ( Assuming 4 crew under 1.88
foreman)
Assuming a mixer with an hourly rate of 20.00 Birr / Hr and productivity of 0.5 m3 per
hour
DC = MC + LC +EC
Solution:
Example2.
Calculation of labor cost for a m3 of concrete; production rate 1.25 m3 /hr
Example 3:
Solution
I) with charges accounted for depreciation, interest return and monthly repair costs
(I) Mixer
3x12(22x8) hr
ii) Vibratory
Hourly cost
Total = 4824Birr/hr
= 3863.2Birr/ m3
