How to calculate the rate of concrete supply (i.e. how many wagons are required)
Ordering and managing the concrete for a large bridge abutment
What could go wrong?

This session relates to the site side of construction and civil engineering as well as linking to the core content of the Construction T Levels by providing an example of using mathematical techniques to solve construction problems.
