A.1. EXCAVATION
A.1.1. FOOTING 1 (F1)
GIVEN:
L=1.6 m

W =1.6 m

D=2.0 m

N=19 sets

SOLUTION:
V exc =L× W × D × N

V exc =1.6 m× 1.6 m× 2.0 m×19 sets

3
V exc =97.28 m × 1.05
3
V exc =102.14 m

B.1. BACKFILL
B.1.1. FOOTING 1 (F1) & COLUMN (C1)
GIVEN:
L=1.6 m

W =1.6 m

D=2.0 m

T =0.35 m

N=19 sets

SOLUTION:
V =V exc−V con

V con=V con ( F 1 )+V con (C 1)

V con= ( 1.6 m×1.6 m×0.35 m ) +(0.3 m× 0.4 m+1.65 m)

V con=1.09 m³
 V =V exc−V con

V =102.14 m3−( 1.09 m3 × 19 sets )

V =81.29× 1.20

V =97.55 m ³

B.1.2. ELEVATION & COLUMN (C1)

GIVEN:
Lelev =20.58 m

W elev =11.16 m

D2 (elev )=0.4 m

D1 (slab )=0.1 m

Lcolumn =0.3 m

W column=0.4 m

SOLUTION:
Delev =0.4 m−0.1 m

D(elev)=0.3 m

V (elev)=Lelev ×W elev × D elev

Total V (elev)= ( 20.58 m×11.16 m× 0.3 m )+ (1.3 × 2.10× 0.3 ) +(1.3 ×1.3 ×0.3)
3
Total V (elev)=84.01m

V (elev backfill)=V (elev)−V (column)

3
V (elev backfill)=84.01 m −(0.3 m× 0.4 m× 0.3 m× 19)

V (elev backfill)=83.32 m ³ ×1.20

V (elev backfill)=99.99 m ³
