A contractor has been awarded a contract for the construction of a retail shopping center. A major part of the site work for the project is the construction of a structural fill that will be paved and used as a parking lot. Review of the contract drawings and specifications indicates that the compacted fill will average $60$ inches in depth and cover an area $540$ feet by $900$ feet. The contractor has identified an area near the site with suitable fill material located just over a mile from this construction project. Compaction tests on the rock dirt mixture fill material indicate a wet unit weight of $2,900$ pounds per bank cubic yard, a shrinkage of $12\%$ when compacted to the design density, and a swell of $25\%.$ The contractor has a fleet of Caterpillar $725$C articulated end dump trucks available to haul the fill material to the construction site and has extracted the information shown below regarding the trucks from the manufacturer's literature. The haul road has a $5\%$ uphill grade for $500$ feet, a downhill grade of $4\%$ for $3,000$ feet and an uphill grade of $2\%$ for the last $2,000$ feet when traveling from the project site $($dump area$)$ to the borrow site $($load area$).$ The contractor estimates that the rolling resistance will be about $75$ pounds per ton, and the coefficient of traction will be about $0\mathrm{.}6.$ Job conditions are considered average at the load site and average at the dumn site $($huildino site$)$
