Information
The mixer is 100m away from the works
Density of concrete components:
(a)Cement in bag - 1281 kg/m 3
(b) Sand - 1922 kg/m3
(c)Aggregate - 1522 kg/m3
Output of mixer - 2m3 per hour
The water cement ratio - 0.4
Transportating concrete: 1.5 hour unskilled workers per m 3 per 100m round trip
Mixing and placing concrete: gang size - 1 skilled worker ("Concretor") and 1 unskilled worker ("general worker")
Gang output for mixing and placing concrete is 4 hour/m 3

Remark:
1 ton = 1000 kg
1m3 cement = 1281 kg / 1.281 ton
1m3 sand = 1922 kg / 1.922 ton
1m3 aggregate = 1522 kg / 1.522 ton
* 1m3 = 1000 litre
Output of mixer - 2m3 per hour; 1m3 require 0.5 hour
Rent rate - $1000 per day; hourly rate - $1000/9 = 111.11
daily rental rate is HK$50/day, hourly rate = 50/9 = 5.56
1.5 hour labour per m3 per 100m round trip
hourly rate for concretor = $1800 / 9 = $200
hourly rate for unskilled labour = $900 / 9 = $100
total rate per hour = $200 + $100=300
