Assignment _ Concrete Takeof 1) Using a waste factor of 5 %, determine the number of cubic meters of concrete needed to pour the continuous footings. The depth of footing is 300mm. Assume that the wall is centered over the footing. The footings extend 300mm beyond the wall on both sides. Perimeter calculation: Exterior Perimeter = (2 x 50m) + (2 x 28.6m) + 12 + 17.3 = 186.5 m Deduction of corners = 5 x 0.3m = 1.5m Centreline perimeter = 186.5 – 1.5 = 185m. Volume of concrete = 165m x 0.9m x 0.3m = 49.95 m 3 Waste factor of 5% = 44.55 x 5/100 = 2.4975 m 3 Total volume of concrete needed to pour the continuous footings = 49.95 m 3 + 2.4975 m 3 = 52.45 m 3 2)Using a waste factor of 5 %, determine the number of cubic meters of concrete needed to pour the continuous foundation walls shown in the Figures below. Width of the wall is 300mm. Height of the wall is 1.4M Perimeter Calculations: Exterior Perimeter: (2 x 50m) + (2 x 28.6m) + 12 + 17.3 = 186.5 m Deduction of corners = 5 x 0.3m = 1.5m Centreline perimeter = 186.5 – 1.5 = 185m. Volume of concrete = 185m x 1.4m x 0.3m = 77.7 m 3 Waste factor of 5% = 77.7 x 5/100 = 3.885 m 3 Total volume of concrete needed to pour the continuous foundation wall = 77.7 m 3 + 3.885 m 3 = 81.58 m 3 3) Please use workup sheet to show your calculation No. Description Dimensions Volume of Concrete (m 3) Length (m) Breadth(m) Height(m) 1. Continuous footing 185 0.9 0.3 49.95 5% Waste Factor 49.95 X 5/100 2.4975 Total 49.95 + 2.4975 52.45 2. Foundation Walls 185 0.3 1.4 77.7 5% Waste Factor 77.7 X 5/100 3.885 Total 77.7+3.885 81.58 Total Concrete Required 46.77 + 81.58 134.035
4) Show draw a sample cross-section A-A of the continuous footing and wall showing all dimensions.
