A rectangular bed is 16×7 m and requires 170 mm finished in-place soil depth. The supplier's exercise factor is 1.2 m³ loose material for each 1 m³ finished material. Add 5% reserve to the loose requirement. Each delivery carries at most 6 m³ loose soil. Do not apply the conversion factor twice; settlement and suitability are otherwise outside scope. Calculate the minimum delivery loads. Keep intermediate values unrounded; round the final answer to 4 decimal places if needed.
