(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi Satyanarayana

There is no standard ratio - particularly in earthworks.

You have to refer to the pricing structure in the Cost Plan / BoQ.

The company estimator should provide the breakdown over Labour Plant Materials etc.

If the price was obtained from a sub-contractor the he is unlikely to reveal his price breakdown.

Then you will have to go back to basic principles and extract the time driving resource from the price.

In your backfill example the contruction plant will constitute the bulk of the value and of that sector the haul units will drive the production.

Labour will have very little impact in the form of banksmen etc. even considering the practice in India of using labour for compacting backfill.

Best regards
