Excavation Soil Swell & Haul Logistics

Bank in-situ volume expansion into loose soil swell for tipper truck trips.

+25% SWELL HAUL MATH • V(loose) = V(bank) × (1 + Swell%) • Dry Sand Swell: +10% to +15% • Wet Sand Swell: +20% to +25% • Truck Trips = ⌈ V(loose) / Payload ⌉

Loose Soil Swell Volume

Expands bank in-situ volume by the material swell percentage.

V (loose) = V (bank in-situ) × (1 + Swell Factor)
🚚

Truck Haul-Away Trips

Calculates total number of tipper truck loads required.

Truck Trips = ⌈ Loose Volume / Truck Payload Capacity ⌉
⚖️

Disposal Tipping Fees

Calculates commercial landfill tipping charges based on gross tonnage.

Tipping Cost = Total Weight (tons) × Fee / Ton
