Volume of Excavated Earth:

BACKFILLING

Volume of backfill for toilet and bath area :

Volume of backfill for bedrooms (BD1 & BD2):
Volume of backfill for kitchen and living area:
Volume of backfill for terrace area
:

40.192 m2(0.2 m)
=

(85.877 + 103.322)(0.25)=

=
52.572 m3
62.888(0.25)
=
12.578 m3
TOTAL =
120.488 m3
It is noticeable that an excavated earth volume 45.319 m3 used for backfilling is not sufficient
as a backfilling material, therefore, for the subgrade material used as an additional
backfilling material for floor elevation:
120.488 45.319
=
75.241 m3
A 75.241 m3 is the volume of subgrade material required as an additional backfilling material
is compacted and therefore is not quite sufficient to elevate the flooring of the structure.
Hence,
75.241(1.3)
=
97.813 m3
Now, a volume of 97.813 m3 is the compacted volume of subgrade material that is enough
to elevate the floor area of the structure.
