- Good morning, did you want to talk to me?
- We will use this soil as excavated material on the second and third section of the route. There, the earthworks balance is reversed. I just have to figure out where to plan a deposition place.
- Have the land surveyors started taking measurements yet?
- I remember that according to the documentation these are the sections where we have the largest scope of earthworks.
- In order to make a rational division of soil masses and their transportation, please draw up below a longitudinal section of the road: a mass haul diagram and a soil transport graph.
- Engineer Nowak will take care of this.
- Please, keep me informed.
- Hello. I have good news. We have managed to win a contract for the construction of the first three sections of A5 motorway. According to the earlier arrangements, you will be a construction site manager.
- They are starting on Monday.
- That’s right. I have looked at the documentation and a table of earthworks. The volume of earthworks in excavations and embankments does not balance. We will have quite a big dump on the first section of the route.
- Good bye.
- Of course. Good bye.
