- 4 - 02 the division of the route into 4 construction lots of about 6 km length is recommended. These lots do not contain the bridging of more than 4 m light width, which are usually awarded as a special lot to special companies. The objects below 4 m bright width are awarded most of all to those companies to which the earthwork was transferred. The width of the road crown is fixed after a multiple of 3 l/2 m, so it can be 7 m or l4 m. With modern roads you prefer to choose 14 m. As far as the unique visit allowed for a festive position, with the exception of the last street in front of Karlstein mentioned above, it is an area of favourable quality, i.e. the differences in altitude and the gradients are nowhere particularly large, the ground condition is medium-heavy /loamy/, in places stony, in the last part rocky. About l/4 of the length of the track will be in the incision, 1/4 in the concussion. With the remaining half of the path length only a straightening of the surface of the terrain, widening of the road crown, straightening and similar will be necessary. Assuming an average professional height of 2 m on average, a cross sectional area of about 40 m2, a total excavation of 300,000 m3 on the basis of the above results. The same amount would be to be paid in the distribution. 2,000 Jews can be employed with this work volume; according to the division into 4 lots, this means 4 groups of 50 mn each. With an average daily output of 5 m3 per man/in this number, a probable reduction in the performance of an unaccustomed workforce is taken into account/means the 30 working hours for excavation and 30 working days for distribution, a total of 60 working days, so that taking into account the loss of time due to bad weather, approximately 3 1/2 months will be required to carry out earthworks. The prerequisite is that the workers are provided with well maintained and always well sharpened work equipment, that there are sufficient field railway ice, tilting wagons, pulling forces, etc.
