1 Class Exercise Soil Stabilization Sediment Controls Verify the contractors calculations for the quantity of material need to stabilize a Disturbed Soil Area (DSA)
2
2 Soil stabilization –Estimating the amount of soil stabilization material need to protect disturbed soil areas Sediment control –Estimating the amount of sediment control material need to protect disturbed soil areas Breaking up slope length –Estimating the amount of fiber rolls or gravel bag berms needed to break-up slope lengths Soil Stabilization and Sediment Controls Calculations Soil Stabilization and Sediment Controls Calculations
3
3 Soil Stabilization Calculations Use Table 2-2 to determine which slopes require stabilization
4
4 Soil Stabilization Calculations Calculate the total DSA that will require soil stabilization Disturbed Soil Area
5
5 Sediment Control Calculations Use Table 2-2 to determine which slopes require linear barriers
6
6 Linear Barrier Calculations Calculate total length of Linear barrier needed Linear Barrier
7
7 Slope Length Use Table 2-2 to determine what slopes require breaking up the length
8
8 Slope Length Spacing of Fiber Rolls
9
9 Slope Steepness Calculating Slope Steepness –Rise Over Run Slope steepness can be expressed by comparing the slopes horizontal component to the vertical component – 1V : 2H Rise Run Slope = 142 m 156 m = 14 m 42 m = 42 Rise Run 14 42 1V:3H V H

10 Slope Length Calculations Pythagorean Theorem A 2 + B 2 = C 2 A=42B=14 A B C 42 2 + 14 2 = C 2 1764 + 196 = C 2 1960 = C 2 44.27 = C
11
11 Soil Stabilization Calculations Calculate the total DSA that will require fiber rolls Fiber Rolls
12
12 Class Exercise Break in to groups of 4 to 5 people Handouts: –Plan sheet –Tables Calculate SS and SC materials
13
13 Soil Stabilization* –Hydroseeding 150,000 ft 2 a day (flat turf) 22 bales @ 50lb a bale in a 3000 gal truck –Hydro Mulch (BFM) 12,000 ft 2 per 3000 gal truck 5 loads per day –Straw Mulch .4 Hectare an hour 1 to 2 bales a min 74 lb bale covers 800 ft 2 @ 2 tons per acre Erosion and Sediment Control Labor Estimates Sediment Controls* –Silt Fence 4 men and 5 labors 1000 linear ft a day –Fiber Rolls 4 men and 5 labors 1500 linear ft a day *Estimates are based on vendor quotes actual installation time will vary based on site location, Slope steepness, and accessibility.
