A rectangular trench is 100 m long, 1.5 m wide, and 2 m deep, with vertical sides. What is its in-place excavation volume?
- A150 m³
- B200 m³
- C300 m³
- D400 m³

Answer: C. 300 m³
Volume = length × width × depth = 100 × 1.5 × 2 = 300 m³. This is the geometric in-place volume before any swell or shrinkage adjustment.
