Plant Hours for Strip Footings

[Terry Gillan]

What would the conversion be for plant Excavator Hire for footings, this is how we are doing it.

1. Measure in Meters
2. Want to show how many hours we need to allow for the footings

300 wide x 400 deep footings we allow to excavate 15Lm per hour, so what would the conversion factor be in the spreadsheet.

805 800-00 8T Combo Equipment Meters *1 Yes HR

What should the conversion factor be to show this

Hi Terry- Sorry I missed this post.

I would use Profile Builder to model the footings OR Takeoff_Length to accumulate lengths if mass modeled footings. In Estimator, Layers Tab, I would use attribute of Meters for either the PB Layer or the Takeoff_Length Layer. Multiplier should be “/15” and unit of Hrs. and either round up or not. Does this help?
