ASSIGNMENT
1. Your company has been awarded a contract of developing and construction a new
International air port 30 KM from a city. You have been appointed as Planning Engineer.
Project is to be implemented in phases. In phase I, one strip of landing 100 m width is to be
constructed in 100 days.
The scope of work is as follows:
(a) Cutting and dozing of 1, 00,000 cum of earth. Average height is 0.75 m.
(b) Transportation of 20,000 cum of surplus earth from site to dumping ground 3 KM
away from site. Filling of 80,000cum of earth.
(c) Bringing of 20,000 cum of sand from 20 KM (including of spreading and
leveling).
(d) Procurement of 1,50,000 liters of bitumen. Duration of work 30 days from the
60th day of starting work. Lead time for the procurement of bitumen is 45 days.
Storage facility of 50,000 litres at site.
2. Estimate total cost of work and your plan of:
(a) Equipment planning procurement and development.
(b) Ordering and replenishing of Bitumen.
Assumptions
(a) Type of equipment:
(c) Maintenance
(f) Adequate spares and sub assemblies are available with trained maintenance staff.
(g) Key plan of the area has been prepared and the plant operators are familiar with the task at
hand.
(h) Work is being executed as per the Key plan.
COST ANALYSIS
1. Excavation of 100000 cum soil.
Consider 3 no. of excavators 0.9 cum bucket capacity @ 60 cum per Hour
Output 3 excavators (10 Hrs working)
= 1800 cum/day
= 56 days
= Rs 31.08 L
= 63 working days
= Rs 30.24 L
= 10 cum/ Trip
= 15 min.
= 10 min
Unloading of material
= 5 min.
Return journey
= 10 min.
= 40 min
= 15 nos.
= 1200 cum
= 17 working days
= 80 x 17 x 650
= Rs 8.84 L
= 10 cum
= 15 min.
= 30 min
Unloading of material
= 5 min.
Return journey
= 30 min.
= 90 min
= 7 nos.
= 560 cum
= 36 working days
= 42 working days
= Rs 13.86 L
6. Compaction
Consider 2 nos. Vibratory road roller 8-10 tonne capacity, 100 cum per Hour and
2 nos. water tanker 6 KL capacity
Output of 2 rollers (10 Hrs working)
= 50 working days
Assume cost of operation of roller @ Rs 1000 per Hour and operational cost for water
tanker @ Rs. 1600 per day
Total cost for compacting 100000 cum material (Roller + Water tanker)

= Rs 10.80 L

PROCUREMENT OF BITUMEN
a. Lead time
As the name implies, it is the period elapses between the point of time when the need
for material is contemplated & the point of time the material actually available on the
site of construction for use.
It comprises time required for:-

In this case of bitumen, from the time the order is placed, it takes 45 days for the material to
reach the site. Hence, the order for the material is to be placed a minimum of 45 days before
the requirement for use actually comes up.
