1. we have 1 road length 10km x 8m is given to do for 6 months. the works was given a

volume of Embankment 80,000m3 and the volume of subase 24000m3 and the volume of base course 16000m3. so what can we do to make the road and estimate the cost and describe the work of tool to use. (just give an example)



2. for the tool it has Excavator, Bull dozer, truck, motor grader, rollers



3. need to dig the soil far from the road construction from 5km (take the soil to complete the road)
