The rock is gone by the time anyone asks

Anyone who has had rock quantities questioned knows this. The rock is blasted, hauled, crushed and gone. What's left was written for someone else, blast plans for the blaster, scale tickets for the crusher, nothing by cross section, and the question comes months after the last shot.

One case on our Try page: a rock excavation overrun the Engineer wants substantiated by cross section. Yesper built the evidence chain, blast plan to scale ticket, shot by shot. 46 of 52 shots hold up, 87,725 of 97,681 CY. By cross section not one interval does in full: the tickets never recorded a station.

The shots that would undercut the claim turn up on your side of the table, before you answer the Engineer. Same for the rest of the Try page: claims from the site diaries, a change-order review of the bid package, a work plan for a culvert.
