Brain Teaser of the Week

Wheelbarrow Challenge.
Two men working at a construction site were getting on each other’s nerves so they decided to challenge each other. One man, obviously stronger, said “See that wheelbarrow? I’m willing to bet $100 that anything you can wheel to that cone and back, I can wheel twice as far. Do we have a bet?”
the other man, too proud to decline, shook his hand ... but he had a plan.

He looked at the objects lying around: a pile of 400 bricks, a steel beam, the 10 men that had gathered around to watch, and a stack of ten bags of concrete mix; he thought for a while, and then finalised his plan. “All right,” he said, and revealed his object.
That night, the strong man went home $100 poorer. What was the weaker man’s object?
