A segment of interstate highway requires the construction of an embankment of 350,000 yd3. The embankment fill is to be compacted to a minimum of 90% of the Modified Proctor maximum dry density. A source of suitable borrow material has been located for construction of the embankment and has the following properties: Unit weight 112 pcf Moisture content 9% Swell factor 0.81 Modified Proctor optimum moisture content 12% Modified Proctor maximum dry density 121 pcf Assuming each truck has a maximum capacity of 5.5 yd3, what is the minimum number of truckloads of soil required to construct the embankment using soil from the borrow pit
