Attached is a problem regarding hauling dirt from a construction site and determining the productivity rate. The solutions manual says that you should use the "Bank Density" for the calculation. However, my first instinct would be to use the "Loose Density" since the dirt in the ground (bank) would be disturbed and have swell introduced.
As you can see in my work, using either of the two densities given provide an answer which is shown. The solutions indicate that Answer D is correct.
Can someone explain why you would use bank density instead of loose?
Let's be careful with copywrited material. Just reference people to their copy of the sample exam. Thanks. SapperPE
