Q3. A self-propelled tamping foot compactor will be used to compact a fill being
constructed of clay material. Field tests have shown that the required density can be
achieved with 3 passes of the roller operating at an average speed of 5mph. The compacted
lift will have a thickness of 8in. The compacting width of this machine is 9.5ft.
*1BCY=0.83CCY
-The scraper production, estimated for the project, is 530BCYhr.
-How many rollers will be required to maintain this production?
-Assume a 1 hour efficiency.
