I need someone to help out with this assignment who not only is savvy in math but also in construction material installation. thanks


1 COURSE NAME: Trade Calculations Value 15% COURSE NUMBER: HCAP 152 INSTRUCTOR: Liane Cook Student Name: ______________________ DUE: September 22, 2021 Assignment 6: Materials Installation Assignment The following landscape sketch is of a backyard interlock patio area. Using the formulas discussed in class and applying the appropriate conversion factors to the measurements, calculate the materials that you would require for the installation of the patio. Watch the units and convert accordingly. Material data sheets and product sheets are supplied. The patio is to be installed with a Brussels Block AF pattern in Limestone with a soldier course on the perimeter done in Midnight Charcoal standard stone. @@@@@ @@@@@@@@@@ @@@@@@@@ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@ 2 3 4 5 You will need to determine the following: 1. Calculate the linear feet of interlock soldier course that you would need to go around the perimeter of the patio. 2. Using the Unilock Product Data Sheet how many sections of soldier course (using the Standard Stone) will you need? Tip: They sell interlock by whole sections or bundles only. 3. According to the Unilock Product Data Sheet how many square feet will the soldier course equal? 4. Calculate the linear feet of edge restraint that you would need to go around the perimeter of the patio. Remember that the edge restraint is not needed along the house wall. 5. Edge restraint, Snapedge, is sold in 8’ lengths. Calculate how many edge restraint pieces you will need for this project. Tip: They sell edge restraint by whole pieces only. 6. What is the area of the patio? 7. What is the total area of the patio if you were to include a 5% waste factor for cuts? 8. You will need the infill pattern just for the area inside of the soldier course. Calculate the square feet of the infill pattern area that you will need. Tip: use your area of the patio including the 5% extra for this calculation - this allows you to accommodate the cuts. 9. Calculate the square feet of stone that you will need to order using the Brussels Block pattern AF? a. 40% XL = _________________ ft2 b. 40% Standard = _________________ ft2 c. 20% Half = _________________ ft2 10. Calculate how many bundles and/or sections of product you will need to buy according to your calculations from Question 9. a. 40% XL = __________bundles and ___________sections b. 40% Standard = ___________ bundles and ____________sections c. 20% Half = ____________ bundles and ____________sections 6 11. Calculate how much base would be required if you were to apply 8” deep of compacted granular “A” base material with a compaction factor of 20%. HINT: Remember that the base material should extend 6” beyond the edges of the patio except along the house wall. You will need to determine the new dimensions that you are working with and calculate the new area before you find the volume. (Draw the shape with the new dimensions indicated if that helps.) a. The area for gravel = __________________ft2 b. The volume of gravel needed = _______________ft3 c. The volume of gravel (answer for b) converted to CUBIC YARDS = _____________yd3 Tip: Always round up to the nearest 0.5 yd3 12. Calculate how much bedding sand would be required if you were to apply to 1” for levelling the interlock? Note: bedding sand does not compact. Answer in cubic yards. Tip: Always round up to the nearest 0.5 yd3 13. How many bags of polymeric sand will be needed to complete the patio were the interlock is installed with narrow joints?

Using the formulas discussed in class and applying the appropriate conversion factors to the measurements, calculate the materials that you would require for the installation of the garden and yard areas. @@@@@@@@@@@ @@@@@@@@@@ @@@@@@@@@@ 1. How much triple mix soil would be needed to raise the gardens 5” from the existing level? Answer in cubic yards 2. How much Shredded Pine Mulch would be needed to apply 3” of mulch on the gardens? Answer in cubic yards 3. How many square feet is the turf area? 4. How many lbs of Deluxe Sun and Shade Mixture from Speare Seeds would you need to cover the turf area in the drawing? see Lecture Notes – Week 10. Answer in lbs to two decimal places. 5. How many rolls of sod would you need to cover the turf area in the drawing? see Lecture Notes – Week 9. Answer in rolls – whole quantities only.
