From the dumpster pad plan, what perimeter length is needed for edge forming?

Correct Answer

C) 92 ft

The pad perimeter is 2 x (28 ft + 18 ft) = 92 ft.

Answer Options
A
74 ft
B
84 ft
C
92 ft
D
96 ft

Why This Is the Correct Answer

The pad perimeter is 2 x (28 ft + 18 ft) = 92 ft.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option A: 74 ft

74 ft is below the supported result for slab perimeter takeoff; it likely omits allowance, conversion, coverage, or final round-up.

Option B: 84 ft

84 ft is below the supported result for slab perimeter takeoff; it likely omits allowance, conversion, coverage, or final round-up.

Option D: 96 ft

96 ft is above the supported result for slab perimeter takeoff; it likely double-counts allowance, uses the wrong unit, or rounds too early.

Memory Technique

Slab Perimeter Takeoff cart for Site Package: pad first, reading second, whole ft last.

Reference Hint

Open-book path: turn to sheet A-125 in the plan packet, then use the DUMPSTER PAD PLAN note/table before checking P&P Commercial Construction plan-reading guidance.
