Ugh, a bit more then that.
50 trucks is roughly 500 cubic metres. I believe a cubic metre weighs something like 2500 kg, so 1,250,000 kg or 2,750,000 lbs of concrete.
That's a lot of jackhammering. What was the cost of that delivery? Around $200-250k just for the concrete? (Not counting what I'm sure was significant labour cost to form, place, vibrate, finish, strip the work, people to block/direct traffic, crane time (assuming it was a crane job).
That's one hell of an oops!
The material cost of the concrete was minimal compared to the demo cost plus the labor to re-form and replace all the beams and slabs. I realy don't want to divulge the extent of the cost, but it was a multi-week setback.
