# Footpath 120mm — 3m wide, thickened edge field side

**Total per 120m run: ~$6,970** (ordinary labour basis)
**Effective rate: ~$58/lin m** (3m wide × 120m = 360 m² → $19.4/m²)

## Buildup

| Task | Crew | Hours | Linear m | Rate | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Edge form productivity (2 lads @ 2 hrs = 12m) | 2 | 20 hrs | 120m | $85 | $1,700 |
| Thickened edge steel (2 lads @ 1 hr = 6m) | 2 | 20 hrs | 60m | $85 | $1,700 |
| Mesh installed (2 lads @ 0.5 hr = 6m) | 2 | 10 hrs | 60m | $85 | $850 |
| Connellies / control joints (2 lads @ 0.5 hr = 3m) | 2 | 10 hrs | 30m | $85 | $850 |
| Pour (4 lads @ 3 hrs) | 4 | 12 hrs | 60m | $85 | $1,020 |
| Strip (2 lads @ 5 hrs) | 2 | 10 hrs | 120m | $85 | $850 |
| **Total per 120m run** | | **82 hrs** | | | **~$6,970** |

## Productivity calibration

- 12m of edge form per 2-lad-hr (6 lin-m / lad-hr) — strong baseline for straight runs
- Mesh placement at 12m per 2-lad-hr (12 lin-m / lad-hr) — assumes pre-cut mesh sheets
- Pour at 60m per 4-lad × 3 hr = 5 m / man-hr at 3m width = 15 m²/man-hr — fast (3-yard truck loop)
- **Slow ~30%** if curved layout, restricted access, or mesh has to be cut on site

## Notes

- 250mm thickened edge on FIELD SIDE only (one-side thickening — easier than both)
- Mesh: SL72 typical (per Hornsby PV1–PV5 spec)
- Excludes: concrete supply, mesh supply, sub-base prep, set-out
- Compare with thickened-edge-BOTH-sides 160mm version: [[footpath-160mm-thickened-edge-both-sides]]
