A smooth wheel compactor is used to compact an aggregate base layer for roadway

construction $($in an industrial park$).$speed is $2-4mp\frac{h}{h}r.$ The aggregate base is $8-$inches

thick, compacted, and five passes are required for compaction. The width of the wheel is $6$

feet and the roadway width is $25$ feet. The access road is $1000$ feet long. Job efficiency is

$85\%.$

a$)$How many trips along the length are required?

b$)$How long will it take $($in min$)$ to compact the aggregate base? Be sure to include job

efficiency here.

c$)|$What is the expected production $($in $CC\frac{Y}{h})?$ What volume of aggregate is required for

this job? Report your answer in both bank and loose measure $($BCY and LCY$).$
