Case Study Capillary Concrete Bunker INTRODUCTION PROJECT IMPACTS FINANCIAL IMPACTS 2016 DAN GROGAN COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS INTRODUCTION Capillary Concrete The Project Capillary Concrete is the technology platform with a patented ability to control moisture levels in any material installed on top of it. Through usage of macro-pores to regulate gravitational drainage and micro-pores to replenish moisture through capillary action, this material is well suited to sustain any kind of moisture levels desired in any kind of constructed profiles top layer. Purpose The Purpose of this Case Study is to show clients, investors, golf course superintendents and others how Capillary Concrete saves money each year on maintenance costs, at the same time as the playing condition is significantly improved. Golf Club The Case Study is performed at Sagamore Golf Club in Noblesville, IN. together Golf Course Superintendent Dan Grogan. Contact Information Dan Grogan [email protected] (317) 773-2799 INTRODUCTION PROJECT IMPACTS Sagamore Golf Club is a high end private golf club which was awarded with “Top Ten New Private Courses in America, 2004” by Golf Digest. The course has been in an extremely good shape ever since that day, but one big problem grew stronger and stronger for each year, the bunkers. After rainstorms, the bunkers flooded and wash-outs was a fact every single week. As a result, a large amount of money was spent each year, both on man hours to repair the damages, but also to put in new sand because of contamination. Another issue that grew was the compaction of the sand. It became hard to play from the bunkers and therefore, members started to complain. In 2015, the club decided to install Capillary Concrete in all the bunkers, and the results will now be quantified. FINANCIAL IMPACTS DAN GROGAN COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS PROJECT IMPACTS Cost of renovating a 4 000 square feet bunker Additional costs of installing Capillary Concrete Type of cost USD Type of cost USD 200 man hours to clear the bunker from old sand and install new drainage. $2 700 Cost of Capillary Concrete delivered to the course. $6 120 42 man hours to install the new sand. $567 42 man hours to install Capillary Concrete. $567 77 tons of bunker sand at a 4 inches depth. €6 160 Total cost of Capillary Concrete $6 687 Cost to renovate a 4 000 𝐟𝐭 𝟐 without Capillary Concrete $9 427 Assumptions • The cost of Capillary Concrete is estimated to average $1,53 per square feet. • The maintenance runs 250 days a year at Sagamore Golf Club. • There are 3,5 Acres of bunkers on the course. • The cost of sand is $80 per ton. • A man hour costs $13,5. • A 5 % discount rate is used. INTRODUCTION PROJECT IMPACTS THE INITIAL INVESTMENT • The initial investment of installing Capillary Concrete in a 4 000 square feet bunker is estimated to be $6 687, which makes the bunker about 70 % more expensive to renovate, compared to the case where no bunker liner is installed. • This number will represent the present value of the costs in the cost benefit analysis, since the negative cash flow comes at year 0. FINANCIAL IMPACTS DAN GROGAN COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS LONG RUN FINANCIAL IMPACTS Benefits of Capillary Concrete Cost Savings on a 4 000 square feet bunker Weekly Maintenance • Before the installation, it took on average 20 man hours per day to maintain the bunkers. After the installation, the maintenance is down to approximately 6 man hours per day. • Looking at the 4 000 square feet bunker, the maintenance has gone down from 0,5 to 0,15 man hours per day on average, which equals a lowering of 87,5 man hours per year. Wash-out Repairs • Before the installation, it took on average 108 man hours, to repair all the wash-outs after a heavy rain, 15 times a year. This equals 2,85 man hours on the 4 000 square feet bunker. • With Capillary Concrete, there are almost not a single washout, and therefore almost not a single man hour required. Bunker Sand • Before the installation, the bunker was filled with 3 tons of sand every year because of contamination. Life-Span • Without Capillary Concrete, Dan estimates that a bunker has a life-span of 5 years on average. With Capillary Concrete the bunker is expected to be in good shape for at least 15 years. • Therefore, after the 5th and the 10th year, there will be a cost of $9 427 to renovate the bunker for them to be in good shape. INTRODUCTION PROJECT IMPACTS Type of cost saving USD Maintenance (85 man hours x $13,5) $1 180 Wash-out repairs (2,85 man hours x 15 times) $575 Bunker Sand (3 tons x $80) $240 Total yearly cost savings $1 995 THE LONG RUN FINANCIAL IMPACTS • • • • With Capillary Concrete, there are numerous benefits, both cost savings and increased playing conditions that leads to indirect positive financial impacts. Looking at the 4 000 square feet bunker, the club saves $1 995 each year. There is also a need to include the cost of a new bunker renovation every five year. This cost is estimated to equal the initial bunker renovation cost of $9 427. These numbers will represent the cost savings/benefits in the cost benefit analysis. These numbers will be discounted to a present value since the occur in the future.
