1. the forming requirements for a concrete job include 48 two foot panels, 2 end panels, 6 fillers, 96 snap ties, 192 waler clamps, 11 turnbuckles, 21 pieces of chamfer strip, 384 wedge bolts, and 30 2″×4″×16′-0. how many total pieces are needed?

Explanation:

Problem 7

Step1: List all worker counts

Carpenters: \( 27 \), Apprentices: \( 5 \), Interior systems mechanics: \( 14 \), Trim carpenters: \( 11 \), Floor layers: \( 7 \), Foremen: \( 9 \), General foreman: \( 1 \)

Step2: Sum all counts

\( 27 + 5 + 14 + 11 + 7 + 9 + 1 \)
First, \( 27 + 5 = 32 \)
Then, \( 32 + 14 = 46 \)
Next, \( 46 + 11 = 57 \)
Then, \( 57 + 7 = 64 \)
Next, \( 64 + 9 = 73 \)
Finally, \( 73 + 1 = 74 \)

Step1: List all item counts

Two - foot panels: \( 48 \), End panels: \( 2 \), Fillers: \( 6 \), Snap ties: \( 96 \), Waler clamps: \( 192 \), Turnbuckles: \( 11 \), Chamfer strip: \( 21 \), Wedge bolts: \( 384 \), \( 2''\times4''\times16' - 0 \): \( 30 \)

Step2: Sum all counts

\( 48+2 + 6+96+192+11+21+384+30 \)
First, \( 48 + 2=50 \)
Then, \( 50+6 = 56 \)
Next, \( 56+96 = 152 \)
Then, \( 152+192 = 344 \)
Next, \( 344+11 = 355 \)
Then, \( 355+21 = 376 \)
Next, \( 376+384 = 760 \)
Finally, \( 760+30 = 790 \)

Answer:

\( 74 \)
