A GC needs to fill and compact a trench that has the following dimensions 150 x 50 x 1.5 ft.   The sub is going to use a dump truck that can carry 12 CY, and travels at an average speed of 40 mph. The borrow pit is located 45 miles from the construction site. The truck driver makes $50/hr and works 8 hours per day. Loading time for the truck is 30 minutes and unloading time is 5 minutes. The sub has to rent the truck at $500 per day + a driver @ $50/hour. The cost of soil $20 per BCY. The soil has a swell factor of 18% and a compaction factor of 12%.

How much will the driver cost?

INNOVATIVE INTERSECTION TREATMENTS
In recent times, traffic engineers in Australia and around the world have been developing new intersection designs to improve Road Safety and traffic flow. For example, the intersection of Hoddle Street and Swan Street was redesigned to reduce traffic congestion at this intersection (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mK33JysHC4c). A number of intersections in Thomastown are being redesigned to become a “raised intersection”
You are to carry out research using the internet and identify at least five different innovative ideas for intersection or road design to improve Road Safety and/or traffic flow. For each idea, provide a description of the idea, a photo or illustration of the design, where has it been used, advantages and disadvantages of the idea, and the source of the information (internet webpage/link will be sufficient).

) A 1200 mm deep by 750 mm wide post-tensioned simply supported beam is shown below. The beam spans 12.0 m and is subject to a superimposed dead load of 50 kN/m and a live load of 35 kN/m. Both the superimposed dead load and live load are applied after transfer (after stressing has taken place). The tendon is located at the mid-height of the beam at each end, and its centreline sits 50 mm from the base at midspan. The concrete strength at transfer is 22 MPa, and at maturity is 40 MPa. Assume Ec = 32800 MPa, γc = 24 kN/m3 and ignore any prestress losses.

q= If Pi = 1750 kN and all the load has been applied, determine the percentage of the total dead load balanced

INNOVATION IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY
The construction industry has been criticized because of its low productivity and quality in comparison with other industries. One of the main reasons is the industry suffers from a lack of innovation. Thanks to digitalization, innovative technologies and new construction techniques had been introduced recently. This is reflected with the rapid emergence of augmented reality, drones, 3D scanning and printing, Building Information Modelling (BIM), autonomous equipment and advanced building materials. By adopting and exploiting these innovations, companies will boost productivity, streamline their project management and procedures, and enhance quality and safety. However, the adoption rate of innovation in the Malaysian construction industry is still low. One of the reasons is due to the lack of awareness. For this, the Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB) has taken initiative by inviting everyone to participate in the Innovation in Construction Industry Awareness Campaign 2020. Your company is taking part in this campaign with the purpose to create awareness among the construction industry players on the available innovation that can be used in the construction industry to increase their productivity.
For this, your company are required to prepare a report that contains information on the innovation available in the construction industry in terms of:

a)   The definition
b)   The purpose
c)   The benefits

Problem One (33%) – water usage calculation in a confined aquifer

A confined aquifer with a storativity of 7.8 x 10-5 extends over an area of 50 km2. During the wet season the aquifer has been recharged and the storage in that area has been increased by 8 ML.

  1.      How much has the potentiometric surface raised?
  1.      If the aquifer was unconfined with a specific yield of 18%, what would be the volume recharged (in ML) for the same amount of raise in the water table if we consider that the specific retention is effectively 0%?

1) Go over the derivation of the equilibrium equations for fluids and explain in detail all concepts, steps necessary to derive

A) p= p0 + gamma * z ( equilibrium of a vertical fluid column)

and

B) dp/dx = 0 and dp/dz + gamma = 0 ( equilibrium of an infinitesimal element of fluid )

show that one can derive 1) A from B and 2) B from A .. so A and B are equivalent forms of the equilibrium equations for fluids
