More than 15,000 Clean Energy, Clean Transportation Jobs Announced in Third Quarter 2013 Michigan Ranked No. 4 in Nation; Shows Strength in Clean Vehicles, Energy Efficiency

Michigan ranked fourth in the nation in a quarterly report of u.s. clean energy and clean transportation job announcements, according to the nonpartisan business group environmental entrepreneurs (e2). the report tracked a pair of third-quarter project announcements in Michigan that could bring 1,100 total jobs to the state. Michigan has now cracked the top 10 in three out of the past four quarters. Nationally, the report shows that companies and communities across the country announced more than 80 clean energy and clean transportation projects in the third quarter of this year. together, these projects could create more than 15,000 jobs. the report includes announcements from 30 states in industries ranging from wind power generation to recycling to clean-energy related manufacturing and biofuels. the top sectors nationally were renewable power generation, with 6,700 jobs announced, and manufacturing, with 3,300 jobs announced. the report shows strength in industries that benefit from strong state-level renewable energy policies. however, the scheduled sunset of an

important federal policy in the wind industry is slowing job growth in that sector. there were no Michigan wind announcements in the third quarter. to download the complete report, and to see detailed information on how clean energy is currently impacting Michigan’s economy, visit www.cleanenergyworksforus.org. “clean energy continues to put americans to work,” said Judith albert, e2’s executive director. california and Nevada led the country for clean energy and clean transportation job announcements, with New york, Michigan, and texas rounding out the top five. several southeastern states – including south carolina, tennessee and florida – were also among the top states for job announcements tracked by e2. While there were positive developments in sttes like Michigan, e2’s latest job announcement tally shows continued problems nationwide in the wind industry, which is bracing for the scheduled expiration of the wind energy production tax credit (ptc) at the end of this year. “clean energy policies have a real impact on workers across the country,” albert said. “Washington, D.c. may be far removed from

what’s happening in the heartland, but wind industry workers there will feel the pinch as the wind tax credit expires, the project pipeline dries up, and wind jobs become scarce.” Despite federal level policies that are holding back growth, some state renewable energy policies are having a positive jobs impact, the report found. In fact, of the top 5 states for job announcements in the third quarter, only texas does not currently have a statewide renewables procurement standard on the books. Michigan’s two projects tracked in Q3 were an announcement from ford that it wants to expand its electrification engineering team by more than 200 workers, and an announcement from consumers energy that its energy efficiency programs have created more than 900 jobs since the programs were launched in 2009. e2 has tracked clean energy and clean transportation jobs since November 2011. the 15,000-plus jobs e2 tracked this quarter are considerably more than the corresponding quarter in 2012, when 10,800 jobs were announced. some of this difference may be attributed to e2 tracking recycling announcements for the first time. More than 1,300 jobs were announced in the recycling sector, many in southern states that had not previously posted large quarterly job announcement numbers. Details from each of the job announcements included in this report can be found at www.cleanenergyworksforus.org, and clean energy and clean transportation resources specific to Michigan can be found at www.cleanenergyworksforus.org/michigan.

The Eli & Edythe Broad Art Museum Named ENR Midwest Overall Project of the Year

barton Malow company, southfield, is pleased to announce that the eli & edythe broad art Museum at Michigan state university has been named eNr (engineering News record) Midwest’s project of the year. the eNr Midwest's best projects competition is an annual program recognizing outstanding design and construction in a variety of categories. a panel of industry professionals selected winning projects on the basis of quality, innovation, safety, contributions to the surrounding community and the ability of the project teams to overcome unique challenges. barton Malow served as the construction manager for the iconic art museum designed by world-renowned architect Zaha hadid, known for the “unbuildable” building. located at Michigan state university, the new eli and edythe broad art Museum pushes architectural boundaries and challenges conventional construction. constructed of sloped steel and concrete with a pleated metal and glass exterior, carefully piecing together dynamic dimensions and non-traditional materials challenged the team from the very beginning. atypical building techniques were a part of everyday construction. With extreme expectations of quality, the highest levels of communication and craftsmanship were required to overcome these challenges. the successful outcome was truly a team effort. “Voice Of The Construction Industry”®

New Federal Funds Available to Help Repower and Retrofit Construction Equipment with Clean Diesel Engines and Technology Streamlined Rebate Program More Accessible, will Reduce Emissions from Construction Equipment construction equipment used to repair and expand roads, highways and critical infrastructure will be getting cleaner thanks to an innovative new rebate program announced by the u.s. environmental protection agency today. the construction equipment funding opportunity pilot program provides public agencies and private entities under contract with public agencies access to federal funds to help replace older engines in construction equipment or purchase retrofit devices for older construction equipment resulting in near zero emissions. “this new rebate program is a cost-effective means to apply our most advanced new clean diesel engines and clean air technologies to older but still valuable diesel-powered equipment that enables them to perform more like a new model. the net result is a more reliable and efficient machine for operators and lower emissions for all,” said allen schaeffer, executive Director of the Diesel technology forum, an educational nonprofit representing the manufacturers of diesel engines, vehicles, and equipment. because of diesel’s unmatched and unique combination of power, performance, reliability, fuel efficiency and now low emissions, it is the technology of choice and the workhorse of the nation’s construction sector, powering more than three-fourths of all heavy construction equipment. the construction equipment funding opportunity pilot program provides up to $120,000 for up to five engines per applicant: • rebates to the owners of older construction equipment to either replace older engines that do not meet emissions standards with engines that meet either tier 2 or tier 3 standards; • rebates to the owners of equipment that meet more modern tier 2 or tier 3 emissions standards to install a diesel particulate filter, a proven technology that reduces fine particles, or soot, to near zero levels; and • targeted public funding to retrofit or repower equipment found only in regions with poor air quality. “this new rebate program dramatically streamlines the application process and reduces the burden from previous grant-based approaches. epa has really worked hard to improve the process and reduce the paperwork required here down to a one-page application along with supporting documentation,” noted schaeffer. Visit us online at www.cammagazineonline.com

federal assistance for the construction equipment funding opportunity pilot program is provided through the Diesel emissions reduction act (Dera). eligible applicants for this funding opportunity include regional, state, local or tribal agencies with jurisdiction over transportation or air quality. private entities that operate non-road construction equipment under a contract or lease with a public entity are also eligible to apply. applicants must operate their equipment in areas of poor air quality, and a full list of eligible counties will be made available by epa after November 20. applicants may submit one application that includes up to five engines. these five engines can be any combination of the technology options for a total maximum of $120,000 in rebate funding per applicant. the deadline to apply is January 15, 2014, after which time grants will be awarded on a lottery system. for more detailed information about the program requirements, eligible applicants and engines, please visit: http://epa.gov/cleandiesel/dera-rebate.htm. “upgrading the emissions performance of existing diesel engines and equipment through incentives such as rebates is a growing success story. studies have shown that for every $1 in public investments made through Dera programs, attracts an additional $3 in non-federal matching funds including private sector investment to provide anywhere from $7 to $18 in benefits returns in the form of cleaner air and environmental benefits,” stated schaeffer. the Diesel emission reduction act has helped reduce emissions from older diesel-powered vehicles and equipment beginning since 2008. the u.s. environmental protection agency estimates that projects receiving incentive funding between 2008 and 2010 reduced emissions of Nox, a smog forming compound, by 203,000 tons, reduced emissions of fine particles, or soot, by 12,500 tons and co2 by 2.3 million tons. thanks to billions of dollars in research and investment by engine and equipment manufacturers, the new generation of 2014 construction machines now have near-zero emissions of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter. Diesel particulate filters included in today’s announcement will achieve 89 percent emissions reductions for particulate matter (pM) as well as 93 percent reductions for hydrocarbons (hc) and 90 percent carbon monoxide (co) reductions from original emissions levels. “as an industry, we’re proud of our contribution to clean air, and especially the fact that we are attacking the emissions challenge on both ends, making the cleanest new technology possible while also applying that technology to many products and equipment already in use,” said schaeffer. for more information, please visit www.dieselforum.org.

SAFETY TOOL KIT Stretching Your Way to Success W

hile stretching and flexing is something that may have been scoffed at on jobsites just a few years ago, stretching programs are quickly becoming a strategy embraced by many employers in the construction industry. the reasons are obvious. More than any other profession, construction is extremely physical in nature, replete with tasks involving the lifting and manipulation of heavy objects. Workers frequently push, pull, bend, lift and reach to transport and use heavy tools and equipment. as a result, opportunities for sprains and strains are much more prevalent on a construction site than in an office, manufacturing or retail setting. according to 2012 data from the bureau of labor statistics (bls), musculoskeletal disorder (MsD) cases accounted for 34 percent of all injury and illness cases requiring days away from work in 2012. bls data shows that workers who sustained MsDs required a median of 12 days away from work. strains and sprains are often the loss leader in terms of accident category in the construction arena. as a result of MsDs being such a common issue, Zurich’s risk engineering department decided to take a closer look at the needs of construction-industry customers and the physical challenges faced by their workers on a daily basis. through the development of customized daily stretching programs Zurich has seen its customers experience a 61 percent reduction in sprain or strain frequency, and a 30 percent

reduction in strain or sprain severity. the reduction in frequency and severity can translate into savings of hundreds of thousands of dollars of direct costs, including fewer indemnity payments, doctor visits and lower medical expenses. Indirect cost savings, although more difficult to measure, are also apparent. avoiding absenteeism, increasing productivity, and improving employee morale through stretching programs can often add up to between 100 and 150 percent of direct costs. craig Medor, Michigan-based Zurich field engineer stated, “Many of my customers’ initial concerns when considering the implementation of a stretching program is the lost productivity incurred by taking five to seven minutes to stretch prior to the shift beginning. however, once they are up and running with their program they quickly realize the few minutes spent stretching are a worthwhile investment. In fact, stretching on a regular basis has been proven to actually increase employees’ productivity. additionally, once crews become familiar with the daily stretching routines they can easily be combined with daily toolbox talks or safety huddles in order to maximize efficiencies.” While injury rate reductions and increased productivity are impressive in and of themselves, additional benefits of stretching include increased flexibility; improved range of motion; improved circulation; promotion of better posture; and stress relief.

While significant in reducing strain and sprain injuries, a stretching program is not a cure-all for construction jobsite injuries. stretching should be one component of a comprehensive ergonomics program, along with proper lifting and various other ergonomic techniques. as the economy improves and hiring increases a growing number of construction firms will continue to look for ways to reduce costs and increase efficiencies to win and retain a competitive advantage. a dedicated emphasis on reducing unnecessary costs, such as those for sprain and strain injuries,

should be among the first actions taken by management to respond to the challenges of turbulent times. for questions or more information on how Zurich can help you develop a customized program for your organization, please contact us at absencemanagement@zurichna.com.

Four SEO Sins to Avoid By Chris hippler, president, Capital letters

ost businesses understand the importance of incorporating search engine optimization (seo) tactics into their overall marketing strategy. a lot of people believe there is a one-size-fits-all seo program, but like all marketing, your seo needs to be tailor-made to be effective. an seo strategy needs to be customized to your business’s profile, goals and budget. seo that is not customized can mean the difference between first page results and search engine oblivion. the following 4 “sins” are ones we see most often; but when fixed, can provide the biggest boost. 1. ignoring local It is estimated that one in three searches conducted on google are focused on a place or location. In order to reach target audiences, which are often geo-specific, businesses must ensure that they are ranking high in these local searches. strategies that are effective include listing your business in relevant industry and geographical directories, and creating keywords that combine your company with your physical location.

an seo priority. commit to posting content relevant to your industry or company twice a week. Involve coworkers, interns, and if the budget allows, freelance writers. create a news feed on your website, and update it frequently with events, company milestones and client news. Make it relevant to your business, and use keywords to help boost search rankings. 4. thinking seO is a One & done a successful seo strategy is a commitment. your work is not finished because you’ve researched keywords and optimized your website. generating content, building links to your content and site, and optimizing your customer’s experience are all part of an ongoing process. While keeping up with your seo program might seem daunting, it’s worth it. a consistent seo strategy can mean your company will have

increased visibility, more website traffic… and more customers. search engine optimization, like all marketing initiatives, depends on a solid execution plan, constant tweaks to execution, and measurement and analysis of the results. “Marketing on the Level” is written specifically for CAM members and the commercial and industrial construction industry. We are specialists in developing and maintaining websites, and Chris Hippler online marketing. Ideas for a column, or questions about marketing are always welcome! Contact Chris at chris@capitallettersmarketing.com or 734-3539918, or visit Capital Letters at www.capitallettersmarketing.com.

2. posting duplicate Content on the Company site one of the keys to having a well optimized website is having a large amount of well written, informational content that balances keyword usage with language and user experience. businesses with smaller websites might try to compensate by duplicating content throughout the entire website, increasing the size of the site and the number of optimized sections. this method is a version of keyword stuffing, which makes for poor user experience, causing readers to abandon the site. Duplicate content is also one of the subjects of google’s penguin 2.0 algorithm change, which cracks down on unethical seo practices and removes offending sites. 3. Forgetting to post new Content It can be challenging to find the time to maintain multiple content platforms, or to find new ways to update your site’s content. but consistent, fresh content positively increases organic search rankings as well as user experience. there are some simple ways to generate fresh content (in addition to those social media channels): Maintain a blog. think of your blog as Visit us online at www.cammagazineonline.com

NATIONAL

ENGINEERS WEEK FEBRUARY 16-22, 2014 By Joe Neussendorfer, Aff.M.ASCE

hen you ask people what civil engineers do, often you get that “deer in the headlights” look. that’s because the profession of civil engineering gets little news coverage, unlike other construction professionals. people relate more, it seems, to the constructed above-grade environment more than they do to the at-grade and below-grade levels. civil engineers design the critical infrastructure that makes our everyday lives enjoyable and sustainable. years ago, the american society of civil engineers (asce) published an “asce guide to history and heritage programs.” the publication’s introduction reads, in part: “the growth and development of this country and the development of american civil engineering are not only parallel, they are in fact synonymous… the progress of civilization may be traced by its civil engineering

works - from footpaths to highways, from communal springs to municipal water supply systems and in virtually all other facilities which are needed to attain and sustain an advanced state of civilization.”

The growth and development of this country and the development of American Civil Engineering are not only parallel, they are in fact synonymous. over the years, the promotion of “National engineers Week” has moved from strong support one year to no support the next year. In the old days, engineering groups, engineering firms, city councils, mayors and governors throughout Michigan used to really celebrate the contributions

of engineering to our state and local communities with special luncheons, programs, governmental resolutions and proclamations. We need to renew this important recognition of civil engineering, and all engineering, in our society. current efforts, like the recently announced business leaders of Michigan’s “global engineering Village,” in conjunction with the efforts of our state’s engineering groups, is a much-needed step in the right direction to maintain Michigan as an engineering center. We need to continue the outstanding programs that are already being offered in promoting engineering (civil engineering awards programs, future city competitions for our young people, etc.) and to more aggressively support our engineers who are already in the profession. to accomplish an across-the-board thrust to promote engineering, the National engineers Week foundation has changed its name to “disCOVer e” and has a new logo and call-to-action plan called “let’s Make a difference.” the new name reflects the organization’s evolution from sponsoring one signature program, “National engineers Week,” to broadening its collaborative model and network of volunteers to do more comprehensive efforts to promote engineering. With this in mind, please don’t forget to do your part in promoting this year’s National engineering Week, february 16 through 22, 2014. for resources to help you in your efforts, visit the Discover e website at www.discovere.org. About the author: Joe Neussendorfer is an Affiliate Member of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and its Southeastern Michigan Branch. He is also a Member of the society’s Construction Institute and a 36-year Member of the Engineering Society of Detroit.

INTRODUCTION TO NET ZERO RESIDENTIAL WILL THIS TREND GENERATE BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES? By Douglas Elbinger, Energy Policy Analyst, GreenLancer.com

s the Market ready for Net Zero? a recent yahoo! real estate poll found that 50 percent of 1,545 u.s. adults said being ‘green’ is a requirement of their ‘dream’ home. but before we get too deep into the subject of Net Zero energy (NZe) construction, a little background information may be insightful. according to Forbes Magazine, “at this time last year, the New

building Institute – the organization that tracks such things – had recognized only 21 buildings in the usa as Net Zero structures. only two of these buildings exceeded 15,000 sf.” so, as you see, the concept of Net Zero construction clearly has a long way to go. as of february 2012, only 37 homes have been rated Net Zero energy

or better on the industry-standard home energy rating system (hers) e-scale devised by the u.s. Department of energy. “this number could grow 1,000 percent or more if projects continue as planned. Interest has been off the charts," said todd louis, vice-president of tommy Williams homes, a florida-based building company that builds Net Zero energy homes. so far, the company has built and sold four, and has plans to build 35 to 40 more. the price of their Net Zero energy homes are still $30,000 to $40,000 higher than those that are not Net Zero energy, said Williams, but that margin is dropping with a decline in photovoltaic costs. shea homes, a large builder in the West, announced last month that it plans to make Net Zero energy or ‘Near’ Net Zero energy homes the standard model for new homes in all 10 of its retirement communities in Nevada, florida, Washington, california and arizona. If interest in the communities mirrors last year's level, that could mean 500 to 600 solar-paneled, high-efficiency homes, 80 percent of which will be Net Zero energy, said a shea homes spokesperson. (to achieve Net Zero energy, solar-powerenhanced homes have to be on lots that allow a certain amount of sun exposure.) Why should you Be Watching this Market trend? residential ‘green’ construction has skyrocketed from 2 percent of new homes in 2005 to 17 percent of new homes in 2011, according to a Mcgraw hill Market survey report, the most recent data available. the same report found that 61 percent of customers are willing to pay more for homes that are energy-efficient and have other green features. "the paradigm of construction is changing," said phil fairey, director of

the florida solar energy center, an important partner in the recent growth of the Net Zero energy home movement. "Now, greater efficiency doesn't cost you more," he said. “and the cost of solar energy has dropped 50 percent over the last two to three years - from about $8 per watt to less than $4 per watt.” "It's not a huge trend yet," said green homebuilding consultant carl seville, "but it's growing steadily." right now, there are pockets of demand like austin, texas and the West coast, he said, but the “movement” is spreading. It's not so much that homes are generating so much more energy with photovoltaics, said seville, but rather that builders are becoming savvier about home design and energy efficiency. a well designed, well-built home without energy generation can get pretty close to Net Zero energy efficiency, he said, and energy generation takes it over the top. What is a net Zero energy Building? Net Zero simply means that a home (or commercial building) produces as much energy as it consumes. Net Zero homes minimize energy use through very rigorous efficiency methods and meet the remaining needs through renewable energy systems such as solar, wind or geo-thermal. there are essentially two parts to the NZe system: first, Net Zero energy homes are designed or retrofitted to use every available ecM (energy conservation Measure) to minimize energy use through efficiency; and secondly, to meet remaining needs through renewable energy systems. homes that have been built or retrofitted and have successfully reached a hers rating of zero are considered a Net Zero home. reaching a 0 rating means the home is completely self-sustaining. the home is still connected to the grid for backup, but the majority of the energy it uses is produced through solar or other renewable sources. to put this in context, a typical resale home has a hers rating of 130 and a standard new home has a rating of 100. ‘Near’ Net Zero energy is another refinement of this definition. a hers rating of 1-25 is considered near Net Zero. a recent example of a true Net Zero project is the Zero Net energy (ZNe) center being built in san leandro, california as a new training facility for the IbeW (International brotherhood of electrical Workers) and Neca (National electrical contractors association). this is a revolutionary undertaking that utilizes unique structures, environmental designs and CAM MAGAZINE FEBRUARY 2014 19

SUSTAIN | ABILITY technologies that dramatically lowers the building’s energy consumption by 75 percent when compared to similar, traditional commercial structures. the ZNe center’s renewable energy systems – combining wind and solar pV generation – will produce enough energy to meet the energy consumed by the building. energy produced equals energy consumed: a Zero Net energy building.

What’s the difference Between a net Zero house, a high performance house, and a passivhaus? according to Martin holladay, writing for Green Building Advisor, he describes the difference as one of philosophy. In europe, builders interested in energy efficiency are gravitating to the passivhaus standard. Meanwhile, american researchers - and a few american builders - have

developed a fascination with the idea of the Net Zero energy house. aND - the u.s. Department of energy has established as a goal that all new buildings in the u.s. will be built to a Net Zero energy standard by 2030. passivhaus buildings and Net Zero energy buildings have a lot in common. both types of buildings aim to reduce the amount of energy used for space heating or cooling by designing envelopes with a low rate of air leakage, thick insulation, and high-performance doors and windows. While passivhaus designers are content with achieving a very low energy budget, what I’d call ‘Near’ Net Zero. In a true Net Zero energy home, designers add the frosting on the cake by including a rooftop photovoltaic (pV) array sized to produce enough site-generated electricity to balance the home’s annual energy use. these homes can be built to live on or off ‘the grid.’ the best aspect of the Net Zero energy approach is the fact that, in order to balance energy loads with energy production, designers are forced to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of each energy conservation measure (ecM) and compare it to the cost of a pV array. the aim is to find the leastcost path to building optimization. how Would you describe a ‘high performance’ home? to answer this, I turned to Doug selby of Meadowlark builders, ann arbor, and a leading expert on home energy performance. according to selby, an energy efficient, ‘high performance’ home is one that is designed to use substantially less energy than the average american home. these “high-performance” homes are more comfortable and healthy, because the building envelope is sealed so tight. this is a great added benefit for the owner. a truly efficient home starts off using 30 percent less energy than the traditional home, and can increase in some cases to being a home that creates more energy than it uses. the hers scale is a convenient measure of the efficiency of a home. the scale goes from zero to a theoretical maximum of 500. like golf scores, lower is better, with a zero being a Zero energy home (one that averages zero net energy use over the course of a year), and a score of 100 being the average new home built to energy code minimum. each point added represents a 1 percent increase in energy efficiency. older, leakier homes with minimal insulation can score well over 200 on the hers scale, and these homes can benefit the most from a basic home retrofit. at Meadowlark builders, they shoot for a maximum hers score of 80 for the houses they retrofit, representing a 5-star+ home in the federal energy star program. Where possible,

“Voice Of The Construction Industry”®

they go much lower however. a well-insulated home with geothermal heating and cooling and efficient mechanical and electrical systems can score in the low 40s, while the addition of solar panels can bring this down into the 20s. these are homes that cost very little to operate, sometimes as low as $40 or $50 per month. generous federal and utility company incentives for renewable energy can make these “deep green” upgrades have a payoff period of less than 12 years, while a more basic retrofit package can have a payoff period of seven years or less. another real benefit of a high performance home lies in its comfort and healthy air quality. this is something that has to be experienced to understand the difference. Meadowlark’s customers tell them they feel the better air quality, and could not go back to living in a home that was not upgraded.

Question: the bottom line is always the first question. Can net Zero energy homes be cost effective and affordable? answer: one way to think about a Net Zero house is to understand that you are paying for all ‘energy cost’ up-front. all the energy ‘expenses’ that you would normally pay for on a monthly basis throughout the life of that house, you are paying when you build it. Imagine that you are converting an energy expense into an

energy investment. your mortgage will be higher, certainly, but the question to ask is, will your total monthly costs of ownership be lower as energy costs inevitably continue to rise? achieving a Net Zero house does not take rocket science. but it does take disciplined decision-making, a systems approach, and a larger front-end investment in energy conservation, use, and generation. Net Zero energy homes, unlike many so-called

‘green’ homes, do cost little more to build than conventional homes. simple, cost-effective, standard green building designs and techniques, as well as readily available materials, equipment, and appliances can be used to build Net Zero energy homes. In conjunction with state, federal, and some utility incentives or tax credits for solar pV panels, solar hot water, energy efficient heating systems and appliances, these techniques can bring the sales price of a Net Zero energy home to as little as 5 percent to 10 percent above that of a conventional home built to code, depending on the programs available in each state. the additional expense for a Net Zero energy home can usually be paid off within about five to 15 years at current energy prices. or the expense can be wrapped into the cost of the mortgage, and amortized over 30 years at current interest rates. the advantage of wrapping the cost of your utilities into your mortgage is that if energy prices go up the mortgage payment is fixed, and the cost of your “utility bill,” which is now the cost of your energy efficient upgrades, would then be tax deductible under the mortgage interest tax deduction. Without the tax credits, which not everyone is

able to take advantage of, the additional costs for a Zero energy home, compared to a conventional one, may come to about 10 to 15 percent more. another reason that Zero energy homes are affordable is that they are a positive investment; they usually have a higher market value than similar homes built to code. Increasingly, buyers are looking for homes that are airtight and well insulated with low energy bills, and increasingly realtors are finding that energy efficiency features positively affect the resale value of a home a house we are building now will be about eight percent more expensive in terms of bricks and mortar cost. that ends up being about four to five percent more in terms of total project costs. projected monthly energy savings ($520), when compared to a conventional home, more than offset the increased monthly mortgage cost. and those monthly energy savings are only going to go up as energy costs rise. Q: in designing an nZe home, what are you first priorities? a: the first priority is; don’t build more space than you need! you have probably heard the expression that the greenest building decision you make is in deciding what not to build. this is especially true in a Net Zero house. What you don’t build, you don’t have to purchase solar panels or wind generators to heat, cool and light. so avoid duplication of spaces; build spaces that are multi-functional; and keep spaces small. Q: Can you tell me more about the importance of building envelope? a: essentially: build the most efficient building envelope you can afford. your heating and cooling system’s basic job is to modify the temperature within your house. If we can make the thermal barrier between inside and outside as formidable as possible, less heat will escape in the winter, less heat will get in the summer, and the system will have to do less work. less work means smaller equipment and less energy. It is possible - and it has been done - to design a house with an envelope so efficient that the house can be heated all winter with the energy of one light bulb. that wall, however, was actually two walls and was about 18 inches thick. Not everyone can, or wants to, go that far. We can, however, using sIps and/or foam insulations, make walls and roofs that go a long way in that direction at a reasonable cost. Windows and doors are the other big components of your building envelope, and here strategy in placement, as well as high efficiency, is important. the best building envelopes go beyond simply providing a good energy barrier; they are intelligent about it, and are designed to let energy pass though when it is beneficial.

“Voice Of The Construction Industry”®

good passive solar design maximizes windows with southern exposures, and minimizes windows facing east and west. the reason is simple. Window and overhangs can be placed on south-facing windows so that the sun can heat the interior in the winter and be kept out in the summer. this kind of control can only be accomplished on east and west facing windows by mechanical means. Q: explain how you reduce ‘energy demand’ in the design stage? a: If you are to achieve an NZe home you must plan to reduce energy demand in the planning stage. using a multitude of incremental energy efficiency measures, with reduced size and a good energy envelope, you have gone a long way toward reducing your home’s total energy demand. appliances, hot water heating, lighting and other electrical equipment are the other big generators of energy demand in your house. they all draw down energy and depending upon their efficiency, they all create additional heat within the building envelope - heat that your mechanical system then has to use energy to remove in summer months. Just as you have reduced space down to what you really need, reduce the size and number of energy using fixtures and appliances down to what you really need. then select only those of the highest efficiency. Most importantly, use the very highest-efficiency mechanical system and hot water heating equipment you can purchase. this part of the project takes the most careful design and coordination of all, if it is to create synergies with the other components in the building system. one item often overlooked by those doing Net Zero houses is “ghost loads” - power used by all those computers, printers, tV’s and appliances that have leD ‘ready’ lights glowing around the clock. In most homes today, ghost loads can account for around 25 percent of all electrical power use, and most people are not even aware that they exist. In a Net Zero house, these loads can make or break the project. Q: now that you’ve reduced demand to a minimum, how do you balance the energy equation? a: oh yeah! add solar. at this point you have reduced your energy demand to a minimum, but you are still in the red as far as your energy use. Now you must balance the ledger, and generate the amount of energy to equal the demand. solar panels are the most common answer for electrical power. In addition to photovoltaics, solar thermal power can heat not only the water in your hot water tank, but also your whole house if you use a radiant hot water heating system. all Net Zero houses must have some combination

or Powers Distributing in Orion Township, the sun is basically a big light switch activating the second largest privately installed commercial solar panel array in DTE Energy’s territory. Michigan Solar Solutions (MSS), Commerce Township, installed 352 mono-crystalline silicon solar panels on the roof of a recycling center owned by this award-winning beer distributor. The 45,000-square-foot facility recycles glass bottles, aluminum cans, cardboard, plastic bottles, and used stretch film, as well as office paper, shop metal and wooden pallets, according to the Powers website. Plus, “the mono-crystalline silicon solar panels are 100 percent recyclable, so the development is as ‘green’ as it gets,” said Mark Hagerty, president of Michigan Solar Solutions. In business since 1939, Powers Distributing is also the first beverage wholesaler in the United States to convert much of its delivery fleet to more fuel-efficient hybrid tractors. With Powers’ 100 kW solar array, a recycling operation and a hybrid fleet, beer lovers can imbibe the best of brews and

reduce their carbon footprint at the same time. Beyond its eco-credentials, Powers Distributing was chosen as the National Beer Wholesale Association’s 2011 Craft Beer Distributor of the Year, as well as Beverage World’s Fleet of the Year for 2010 and 2011. With such beers as Griffin Claw Bourbon Imperial Stout and Leinenkugel Vanilla Snowdrift Porter, going “green” never tasted so good.

Solar EconomicS Commercial and residential building owners are “going green” both for environmental and economic reasons. “Whether you see green for the money or you see green for the environment, solar makes sense for both,” said Hagerty. As an economic driver, opting for solar power is based on a simple equation: declining costs for solar and rising costs for electricity. “The cost of solar panels and the balance of system components have come down

“Voice Of The Construction Industry”®

dramatically in the last several years,” said Hagerty. Essentially, in the six years that MSS has been in business, the price of a solar installation has declined by over half. “It was $8.50 a watt on average for installs when I began the company, and now we have just completed a project for a little over $3 dollars a watt,” Hagerty added. On the other side of the equation, “electric rates in Michigan have gone up at least three times in the last five years,” he added. Hagerty believes Michiganders are poised for further electrical rate increases. As one reason, “EPA penalties are going to be instituted for coalproducing utility companies,” he said, “and Michigan uses 15 percent more coal in their blend of electricity production than the national average. This means our electric rates could go up 15 percent more than the national average.” With such forces in play, Hagerty is now witnessing a shift in the type of solar customer. Initially, customers were those on the “green” bandwagon. Today, a growing number of people nearing retirement are opting for solar for financial reasons as the Age of Aquarius gives way to just plain age. “We are now seeing solar being used for retirement planning,” said Hagerty. “People see that their electric bills are skyrocketing and will continue to do so. They now look at solar as

SUN WORKING a way to remove an unknown from the equation of retiring.” In the commercial arena, Hagerty sees a shift from large companies purchasing renewable energy credits as a “green” marketing tool towards businesses actually installing solar panel systems. According to Hagerty, the largest privately installed commercial solar array in Michigan is the 4,160 panels resting on the roof of IKEA’s store in Canton Township. A Chicagobased company developed this 977 kW solar installation that became operational in July 2012. Being on the cutting-edge of the future and offering clients economic benefits today gives Hagerty a great deal of satisfaction. “I spent 17 years in the auto parts industry as a commercial

I know when I sell somebody these systems and when I complete a solar installation

that people are going to realize the benefits of it even more as the years go by and electricity goes up.” Looking into his solar crystal ball, Hagerty believes the currently incentivized solar economy will begin to stand on its own as electric rates rise

in Michigan. Currently, solar projects in Michigan are driven by incentives, while the solar industry in states with higher costs for electricity, such as Massachusetts, New Jersey, Arizona and California, are not as reliant on incentives. Solar projects in these states are part of the

We are actually either one rate increase or one product material cost decrease away from going mainstream.” Even farther in the future, Hagerty sees a major change coming to everyone’s electric bill – a change that will clearly earmark solar as a wise investment.

mounting systems: “In a roof-mounted solar array, the panels rest in a tray. As a ballasted system, cinderblocks hold down the tray, securing it from the wind. The problem is that the angle of the panels may not be optimal for solar

power generation. Plus, when the snow lands on the ballasted system, the snow begins to shed and bank at the bottom, shading the bottom of the panels.” As a remedy, Michigan Solar Solutions decided

“Voice Of The Construction Industry”®

to dot the rooftops of both buildings with groundmounted arrays that are essentially a series of solar panels installed on posts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are elevated far enough off of the roof deck that the snow will never bank and shade the panels,â&#x20AC;? said Hagerty. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Plus, the panels can be placed at an angle designed for optimal energy production, the optimal angle being about 30 to 35 degrees.â&#x20AC;? Michigan Solar Solutions worked closely with the steel erectors tasked with mounting the poles to the buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s structural steel and with the roofers installing the flashings around the poles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had to make sure the alignment of our posts and the requirements of the solar racking met the location and structure of the buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s steel girders,â&#x20AC;? said Hagerty. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because of this interface with the steel girders, installing a ground-mounted array on a roof is usually done in new construction. The roof-mounted systems are typically installed as part of a building retrofit.â&#x20AC;? Michigan Solar Solutions also coordinated its work with the Dembs Roth Group, the Farmington Hills-based general contractor for Powers Distributingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new recycling facility. Other project partners include RnZ Electric, White Lake, the electrical contractor charged with handling the final terminations, as well as Schletter, Inc., the company providing the ground-mounted racking for the project. The actual solar panels are manufactured by SolarWorld USA, the largest and oldest manufacturer of solar panels in the United States. In business for 30 years, SolarWorld USA produces all of their panels in two facilities, one in California and the other in Oregon. However, the manufacturer contracts with Michigan suppliers to the tune of $65 million a year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the highest content Michigan panel on the market,â&#x20AC;? said Hagerty, who is a strong supporter of his home state. â&#x20AC;&#x153;SolarWorld buys from several Michigan-based companies, including DOW, Guardian Glass and Hemlock Semiconductor, the largest producer of silicon wafers in the country.â&#x20AC;? Michigan Solar Solutions also had to work closely with DTE to size the system to the customerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s load. Powers Distributingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s solar array became operational in October 2013. This Michigan-based distributor now enjoys the benefits of a new solar installation that produces enough energy to power the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s entire recycling operation and then some. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If at any point in time, the solar array generates more power, it back feeds through the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own transformer and goes over to their main building to offset their load,â&#x20AC;? said Hagerty.

either daily or episodic, in which a high number of customers draw on the grid at the same time. Solar installations can be used to meet these spikes in electrical usage. “With more solar installations, this means we can power more businesses and residences with the existing

infrastructure,” said Hagerty. “Solar can shave the peak demand from the cycle on a daily basis if a sufficient number of solar arrays are installed.” Michigan Solar Solutions has done more than its fair share of boosting the number of solar installations. The company installed 162 solar panels on the Emagine Theater in Royal Oak and 196 panels on local government buildings in Brownstown Township. The company has also installed a series of demonstration solar projects for a variety of schools, including Cass Technical and Henry Ford High Schools in Detroit, Henry Ford Community College in Dearborn, a Warren Woods Schools administration building, and Lahser High School in Bloomfield Hills. “In schools, the panels are for enhancement of the curriculum not electrical production,” said Hagerty. “The six panels we installed at Lahser High School have micro-inverters so students can see the output per panel. We even misted a panel, because water cools a panel through thermo-evaporation. The students can see that the misted panel produces a lot more energy than the adjacent panel.” As part of its diverse customer mix, Michigan Solar Solutions has even installed solar panels on two milk barns, one in western Michigan and the

other near Port Huron. Commercial projects include an installation for Akebono Brake Corporation in Farmington Hills and for Motor City Electric, a Detroit electrical contractor that has worked on several Michigan Solar Solution projects. Michigan Solar Solutions also installs residential projects, including a solar thermal heating system for a home in Columbiaville. Beyond solar panels, Hagerty believes the future may lie in thin film solar products. “Thin films may possibly be the solar product of the future, just because of the diverse things they can do,” he said. “The thin film can be put into paints, placed on siding or put into shingles as part of what is called building-integrated solar products.” Michigan Solar Solutions is clearly making the most of that power plant located 93 million miles away – the sun. Abundant, free and not expected to reach obsolescence for possibly another five billion years, the sun is supplying power for an increasing number of buildings across Michigan. By shaving peak power demand, solar can be part of the solution to our energy needs. As the official slogan of Michigan Solar Solutions states, “The Solution Rises Every Morning.”

Weiss Construction: Experts in Construction Waste Management at the Detroit WWTP By Mary E. Kremposky, Associate Editor Photos Courtesy of Weiss Construction Co. LLC 34 CAM MAGAZINE FEBRUARY 2014

“Voice Of The Construction Industry”®

ne of Michigan’s top 10 engineering projects of the 20th Century is located at the confluence of the Detroit and Rouge Rivers. This sprawling 140-acre complex was placed on the prestigious list in 1999 by the Michigan Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers. The facility is none other than the Detroit Wastewater Treatment Plant, one of the largest single-site wastewater treatment facilities in the United States. With its pumping stations, grit chambers, and both primary and secondary clarifiers, it may be unfamiliar territory to the vast majority of people benefiting from its services. But for Weiss Construction Co. LLC, it is a well-known world. Over the last several decades, this Detroit-based general contractor has successfully completed a long list of projects for the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department (DWSD). Working with DWSD and the Detroit office of CDM Smith as Engineer of Record, Weiss is currently demolishing, removing and replacing 22 belt filter presses and related work. Weiss is commandeering an assortment of cranes to lift and set in place these massive 11.5-foot-tall presses in the tight confines of two modestsized buildings: Dewatering Complex I and Dewatering Complex II. Access to the buildings is no less of a challenge. For Complex I, access is a single overhead door reached via a narrow lane tightly sandwiched between existing structures. In Complex II, access via a single overhead door, plus the fifth-floor location of the belt filter presses literally adds another “level” of complexity to the work. Weiss’s familiarity with this massive plant along West Jefferson Avenue is an aid in keeping the $30.2 million budget for this design-bid-build project on track. “We are assisting them in building the job efficiently and for the price set on this hard bid project,” said Weiss Project Manager John J. Arvai, PE. The best of contractors are experts at managing waste in terms of trimming budgets, controlling schedules and formulating logistics. Weiss Construction is adept at “waste management” - both in actual project management and in working in the wastewater industry, itself. Weiss Construction brings over 40 years of experience in general and specialty construction in the water and wastewater industry to this latest DWSD project. DWSD has a long history. According to DWSD’s publication, The First 300 Years, Detroit’s first sewer was

a brick and stone enclosure originally built in 1836 and known as the Grand Sewer. By 2013, the Grand Sewer has definitely become far grander. This single line has expanded into 3,433 miles of sewer lines servicing a 946square-mile area, including Detroit and 76 neighboring communities. According to a DWSD fact sheet, today’s Detroit Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) has 10 pump stations, six combined sewer overflow retention treatment basins, and three screening and disinfection facilities. Overall, the Detroit WWTP treats an average of 710 million gallons of flow per day.

THree PHASeS, THree YeArS Weiss Construction began installing the first wave of belt filter presses in May 2012. But what exactly is a belt filter press? Belt filter presses are essentially a type of “dewatering equipment that use belts to squeeze water out of the sludge as it is being processed,” Arvai explained. Essentially, the material enters the press as a watery sludge and exits in a drier form called sludge cake. Once all of the newly installed presses are in full operation, “they could potentially produce 31 dry tons per hour of dewatered cake,” Arvai added.

CONSTRUCTION HIGHLIGHT

Working in the tight confines of a modest-sized building added to the challenge of installing the new belt filter presses and associated pipes and pumps. While the term sludge cake may be hard to swallow, its production, along with other wastewater treatment plant processes, is vital to maintaining clean waterways and water supplies. In fact, the lack of efficient wastewater treatment plants in the early 20th Century often gave rise to outbreaks of typhoid fever. As a tell-tale sign of the times, “The Typhoid Season Is On Again” was the headline in the August 21, 1908 edition of The Detroit News, according to DWSD’s publication, The First 300 Years. Fortunately, this is no longer the case. Today, maintenance and continual improvements ensure the proper operation of this crucial piece of public infrastructure. The belt filter press project, itself, is a three-phase project structured to span the course of almost three years. Completed in late December 2013, the first phase involved removal and replacement of 10 belt filter presses in the plant’s Dewatering Complex I. The next two phases will each remove six of the 12 belt filter presses in Dewatering Complex II. Breaking the project into phases will allow the Detroit WWTP to continually process the sludge and to maintain vital operations without interruption. In operation every day of the year, the plant remains vigilant while others enjoy Thanksgiving dinner and Christmas at grandma’s house. “Because the plant runs 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, we definitely have to work within the plant constraints and make sure the plant is not adversely affected,” said Arvai. 36 CAM MAGAZINE FEBRUARY 2014

Because the belt filter presses run almost continuously, the optimal product and manufacturer had to be selected for the job. Given the choice of two different approved manufacturers in the specifications, Weiss opted for Alfa Laval Ashbrook Simon-Hartley, Inc. and its Winklepress® Belt Filter Press. “I think they have a proven track record of performing very well, which is one of the reasons we decided to go with this manufacturer,” said Arvai.

A TIgHT Squeeze Once on site, Weiss first worked in the tight confines of Complex I. Given the difficult building access, Weiss had to devise a strategy for removal of the existing presses and insertion of the new. Weiss elected to dismantle the existing belt filter presses. “A lot of the existing equipment had to be cut up and brought out of the building piece by piece,” said Arvai. For the new presses, Weiss was faced with the equivalent of inserting a ship into a bottle, with each “ship” or 11.5-foot-high press having a footprint measuring 22x12 feet, and the “bottle” or building benefitting from a lightly widened opening. “The new presses came in one big unit,” said Arvai. “We made the existing opening in the building temporarily larger in order to get these presses into the building intact.” Arvai explains the “ins and outs” of Phase I installation. Weiss positioned the equipment delivery truck and an Allingham-supplied 175-ton crane in a parking lot just beyond the opening to the narrow lane. “We used the

“Voice Of The Construction Industry”®

THe CrAne exCHAnge While not the main focus of the project, the removal of the existing bridge crane and installation of a new 15-ton overhead bridge crane proved to be challenging. The existing bridge crane was initially retained, because it was needed for the interior demolition of existing belt filter presses, process piping systems and other equipment and materials. “We also had to temporarily relocate a mezzanine that sits in the center of the building,” said Arvai. Once the interior was cleared, sufficient space existed for the insertion of the new crane and for the eventual lifting and lowering of the bridge crane to the floor. Weiss accomplished the switch in two steps: Step One: Insert the new Crane and Hoist. Weiss cored a hole in the roof of the building for access. An Erikson’s supplied 275-ton truck crane, again positioned outside the building just beyond the narrow lane, was the main piece of machinery used to lift, assemble and install the new overhead crane into place within the building interior. “We were able to utilize the existing crane to assist with that operation,” said Arvai. Step Two: Removal of the Existing Bridge Crane. Weiss used the same truck crane to lift the bridge crane off of its rails and lower it to the floor. Weiss dismantled sufficient portions of this old and massive workhorse of a crane, making it possible for the newly installed bridge crane to remove it through the overhead door and down the narrow alleyway. Crane removal and replacement was swiftly accomplished despite these complex maneuvers. “We worked some long days, but we were able to get it completed in a week,” said Arvai.

A PIPIng PuzzLe Weiss also had to weave together a new infrastructure grid to support the new belt filter presses. “We had to install ten screw conveyors

at each belt filter press,” said Arvai. The screw conveyors transport the dried cake from each of the 10 presses to a newly replaced, central belt conveyor that ultimately removes the dried cake from the facility. In addition, Weiss installed a significant amount of piping to service the new presses, including sludge piping, SFE and polymer piping, along with new air and drain lines. Weiss worked closely with the owner and the engineer to ensure the proper layout and placement of this labyrinth of new systems. “There was a significant amount of coordination of all the equipment, piping and valves required with the owner and the engineer during the submittal and shop drawing phase,” said Arvai. Correct installation of this intricate puzzle of pipes, valves and related equipment was critical during the construction phase, as well. “Field coordination and the layout during construction are very important in making sure each piece is at the right spot and the correct elevation,” said Arvai. “We basically utilized CAD drawing, pipe layout drawings and shop drawings of the equipment to coordinate the placement of all of these components.” Working around existing pipes, equipment and electrical conduit “in an existing facility also made the project challenging and was another reason for careful inspection during the layout phase,” he added. Special care and attention was especially employed when working in the basement of Complex I. The basement houses a host of piping and electrical conduits that feed other areas of the WWTP. “We had to be very aware of those and make sure that we didn’t accidentally disconnect them,” said Arvai.

WorkIng In ISoLATIon Another intricacy of working in an existing and fully operational plant of this type is the need to isolate the building from the wastewater treatment plant’s operations during construction. “We had to cut and cap various items and temporarily bulkhead and lockout certain pumps and valves during the project,” said Arvai. “During the initial phase of isolation, there were certain components that had to be relocated in order to keep the rest of the plant operational.” Weiss worked closely with the plant’s construction group and the plant’s operations and maintenance department. “For instance, we worked towards the common goal of re-locating a six-inch air line that had to be moved in order to install a new electrical and operator building inside Complex I,” said Arvai. “Because the plant had to shut down this entire air line, the shutdown had to be brief, and in fact ended up lasting only eight hours.” The new electrical building is located in the corner of Complex I. The structural steel and

WEISS MAKES IT HAPPEN AT THE DETROIT WWTP Weiss Construction has successfully performed many hard bid projects and design-build projects for the Detroit Water & Sewerage Department over its 40-year history as a company.

crane to lift each 28,500 lbs. press off of the truck, swung it into the lane or narrow alleyway about 120 feet, and then lowered it onto a platform we installed just outside the overhead door,” said Arvai. “We then slowly brought each new press into the building and set them in place on newly constructed concrete piers.” The tight squeeze into the building was mirrored by the confined working space within the 11,000-square-foot structure. “The large size of the equipment greatly diminished any available open space to work,” said Arvai. “Other than the elevated walkways, there was not much room to get around in the interior.” Limited space and the availability of only one overhead crane to move the array of existing and new presses, pipes and pumps within the interior of this modest-sized building compounded the difficulty of the job.

masonry structure houses the Complex I’s electrical gear and panels, as well as a control room for the operators. A similar room will be constructed as part of Phase II in Complex II. In summary, Weiss’s scope of work included the new belt filter presses, the new overhead crane, and the furnishing and installation of pumps, instrumentation and control systems, electrical power systems and associated architectural, structural and building mechanical improvements and modifications.

FuTure PHASeS In early December 2013, Weiss was in the middle of the startup and testing phase for the new Complex I presses and systems. This phase involves testing the new systems and reactivating the sludge lines feeding Complex I that had been temporarily shut down during construction. At publication time in January, “We expect to start Phase II in Complex II in early 2014, and Phase III will start at the end of 2014,” said Arvai. Work on the demolition and replacement of 12 presses in Complex II will involve similar logistical challenges, including accomplishing the job in the tight confines of an existing building and within the intricate weave of existing and new piping systems. Phase II and Phase III will feature the added complexity of demolishing and replacing six presses at a time located on the fifth floor of Complex II. “All the material and equipment will have to come through an overhead door and then be lifted up to the fifth floor,” said Arvai. “All of the demolished items will have to go down five levels to the overhead door to exit the building.”

Weiss will also have to keep the six presses in the other half of the facility in operation. The entire project is slated for substantial completion in August 2015 and for final completion in August 2016. Sludge cakes, screw conveyors and polymer piping may seem worlds away, and sludge may have a certain “yuck factor,” but the squeamish should remember that behind every cake of muck, sludge or bio-solids is a healthy waterway and a cleaner glass of water downstream – and everyone is downstream from somebody. DWSD, Weiss Construction, CDM Smith and an entire cadre of engineers, operators and contractors have honed their professional expertise to improve public health with the cleansing of that most vital of substances: water.

The primary concern in a solar gate system is to provide enough solar power to accommodate the duty cycle of the system and the options that will be used with the system. With any solar system you must put as much power back into the battery (or more) than you are using on a daily basis. Often this is of little concern, especially on sunny days. But when the weather is not ideal, or the area of country is not conducive, the amount of watts of power needed becomes critical. Of course, the first concern is the number of cycles per day the gate is going to be expected to operate. But there is another, often larger, concern. According to experts, the most serious concern for solar powered gates is not the gate itself but its accessories. Most of the time, options such as probe detectors, loop detectors,

keypads, photo beams, and the like, will draw current constantly - 24/7. When this is taken into account, it is likely that the options will draw more current than the operator itself. For that reason, Cartell’s engineers have worked extremely hard (and successfully) to keep the stand-by current draw on the GateMate as low as is scientifically possible. While most probe detectors demand at least 1.5 milliamps in standby, the GateMate requires a mere 150 microamps. That’s 85-90 percent lower than its nearest competitor. Cartell, founded in 1975, is a division of Preferred Technologies Group, located in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Starting with its groundbreaking use of magnetometer technology for residential vehicle detection, Cartell has led the industry with innovation, functionality, quality and value. The dependability of Cartell’s products far exceeds any competitors and is now backed by the industry’s longest warranty. Every Cartell product is quality-made in the U.S.A. Sold by a network of fine distributors. For more information, e-mail Media Contact Jonathan Bohannon at j.bohannon@cartell.com.

MSA Launches World's First "Green" Hard Hat in North America V-Gard® GREEN Hard Hat Sourced From Sugarcane Reduces Environmental Impact MSA, the global leader in the development, manufacture and supply of safety products that protect people's health and safety, and the largest producer of industrial hard hats in North America, has developed the world's first "green" protective hard hat manufactured from sugarcane. Unlike conventional hard hats manufactured from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) sourced from nonrenewable petrochemicals, the VGard GREEN hard hat from MSA is manufactured using "green" HDPE sourced entirely from sugarcane ethanol. Developed by MSA in Brazil, the V-Gard GREEN hard hat was introduced to North American customers at the 2013 National Safety Council Congress & Expo. "By developing a hard hat sourced from sugar, we are effectively reducing the overall carbon footprint associated with the life-cycle of this product," said Eric Beck, MSA's Global Director of Strategic Marketing. Through the natural process of photosynthesis, sugarcane cultivation captures CO2 from the atmosphere, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions. In fact, according to a 2007 eco-efficiency study conducted by Fundacao Espaco Eco, for every ton of green HDPE produced, approximately 2.5 tons of carbon dioxide are captured from the atmosphere and environment. Just like MSA's market-leading, traditional V-Gard hard hats, the V-Gard GREEN protective hard hat meets the company's rigorous performance standards as well as those defined by ANSI Z89.1 and CSA Z94.1. "The sustainable benefits of using 'green' HDPE in a hard hat are what initially captured our interest," Beck said. "But at the end of the day, the hard hat has to provide the same high level of head protection that our V-Gard brand

Ergodyne Debuts New Compact Kneeling Pad and Orange Color Addition Ergodyne has announced the expansion of their ProFlex® Kneeling Pad Line to include the ProFlex® 375 Orange Compact Kneeling Pad, as well as the orange color addition to existing model 380 (Standard Kneeling Pad). The new 375 model offers the same trusted comfort and construction workers have come to expect from the ProFlex® brand with the added benefits of a smaller size optimizing portability - and bold orange color - promoting product awareness and visibility. Key Features: • Compact size fits in most standards tool bags and boxes • Orange color provides easy identification to ensure it is not left behind • Convenient handle allows for storage

is known for around the world. That's what makes this product option so attractive." Green high-density polyethylene is also 100 percent recyclable in the same stream as conventional HDPE, making it suitable for reuse in nonsafety products and further enhancing the sustainability benefits of the new hard hat. Like traditional V-Gard hard hats, the new V-Gard GREEN hard hat will be marked with a recycling label to further remind and educate users to recycle their helmet at the end of its use cycle. In recognition of MSA's leadership and innovation in head protection, Frost & Sullivan, a global research organization of 1,800 analysts and consultants who monitor more than 300 industries and 250,000 companies worldwide, recently selected the V-Gard GREEN for its 2013 New Product Innovation Leadership Award. The MSA V-Gard GREEN hard hat is being launched in the midst of steady growth in the green building industry. According to an industry report released earlier this year in collaboration with the U.S. Green Building Council and the World Green Building Council, 28 percent of architects, engineers, contractors, building owners and building consultants around the world report an increased focus on sustainable design and construction. The report found that firms are shifting their business toward green building, with 51 percent of respondents expecting more than 60 percent of their work to be green by 2015. "With the rise in green building and construction projects in general, this is an opportune time to introduce an alternative, sustainable safety hard hat that also helps to reduce carbon emissions and demand for fossil fuels in product manufacturing," said Beck. "With millions of hard hats manufactured and sold annually in the United States, Canada and Mexico, the V-Gard GREEN hard hat provides those in the construction industry as well as those working in the utility, energy and industrial fields a more sustainable choice that protects both people and planet." The technology to produce this new helmet was deployed at MSA's Brazil operations, in conjunction with Braskem, the world's largest producer of green thermoplastic resins. Offering increasingly sustainable products is a pillar of Braskem's global business vision, which includes intensifying its research into renewable chemicals. This hard hat was made available to customers in September 2013. For additional information visit the company's website at www.MSAsafety.com. Information on Safety Works products can be found at www.SafetyWorks.com.

PRODUCT SHOWCASE or wiping it on. Simply apply in an ultra-thin film (0.0005 inches thick) to get a CCS1 finish that promotes easier stripping, less form clean-up and the complete elimination of discoloration, dusting, bugholes, and concrete build-up. Spray in a fine mist and wipe down evenly with a damp rag with the release agent. If puddles should form, simply wipe them off. Conveniently, it can be applied in minutes, hours, days, or up to two weeks before the concrete is placed.

CRETE-LEASE® 880-VOC-Xtra Bugs-Out VOCS: Eco-Friendly Formulation Maximizes Visual Impact, Mimics Form Surfaces & Exceeds VOC Regulations Since the EPA defined the allowable amounts of VOCs (volatile organic compounds) for concrete release agents that may be released into the atmosphere at 450 grams per liter in the late 1990s, industry-leading manufacturer of site cast and precast concrete release agents, Cresset Chemical Company (Weston, OH) has remained ahead of the curve with its Chemistry “Green” technology line of products. At the forefront of this effort is the advanced Crete-Lease® 880-VOC-Xtra Release Agent − an environmentally friendly version of the industry staple Crete-Lease 880 − The Original. The proprietary blend is comprised of neutralized vegetable oils in mineral oil that contains no waxes, silicones, or carcinogens; it’s also solventless and non-toxic. Notably, this advanced composition exceeds Federal, OTC State, and California (250 g/L) VOC Regulations. Ultimately, Crete-Lease 880-VOC-Xtra provides easy and stain-free clean stripping of forms and form liners from concrete. The end result mimics the surface of molds and site amenities with a superior finish for visually stunning concrete surfaces − without bugholes. When applied properly, it eliminates concrete build-up − cutting labor costs of form cleaning time up to 70 percent. Regular use keeps forms clean when used on non-porous forms and form liners made of plastic (ABS and PVC), elastomeric (urethane and silicone rubber), steel, high density plywood, and medium density plywood overlays. It will not stain 42 CAM MAGAZINE FEBRUARY 2014

or stick from heat curing, and doesn’t interfere with adhesion of caulk, architectural coatings, paint, sealers, and curing compounds on cured concrete surfaces. Additionally, the release agent strips clean and promotes longer form life by keeping the form clean and accommodating easier stripping. Green technology enhancements also allow for storage of higher quantities, while helping producers simplify DOT driver / HazMat regulations, and eliminates the need for HazMat CDL endorsements. CRETE-LESE-880-VOC-Xtra/ SPECIFICATIONS: ● VOC = 240 g/L ● Cost on hard/smooth surfaces is approximately $0.008 per-square-foot ● Will not wash off in a light mist ● Can be applied in sub-freezing or very hot temperatures ● Keeps indefinitely (when sealed) at temps from -200º F to 140º F ● Coverage (hard/smooth surface): 1,600 sq. ft. per gal ● Coverage (pretreated plywood): 1,100 sq. ft. per gal ● Coverage (untreated plywood): 800 sq. ft. per gal

CRETE-LESE-880-VOC-Xtra/ CONCLUSION: The intent of regulating VOCs is to reduce the amount of ozone (O3) produced at ground level. From the EPA’s point of view, manufacturers of form release agents are responsible for meeting the VOC criteria. While the standard allowable amount of VOCs is 450 g/L, more stringent standards are emerging in states such as California − in which some dedicated regions require a 250 g/L standard. Crete-Lease 880-VOC-Xtra exceeds environmental regulations, while offering concrete producers and architects a myriad of integrated solutions to match specific job application challenges such as: high visual impact, longer form life, easy stripping, non-staining, bugholefree surfaces, reduced clean-up time, no bonding interference, and extreme temperature application amongst others. Today’s high-impact concrete jobs demand using the right release agent – Crete-Lease 880VOC-Xtra is relied upon as one of the best release agents in the industry. Because it uses high-end virgin materials, 880-VOC-Xtra naturally performs better as a release agent to consistently deliver a superiorly pleasing aesthetic result. Crete-Lease 880-VOC-Xtra is available in the USA and Canada in 1 and 5 gallon containers, Cresset’s familiar 55 gallon orange and white striped drums, and 275 gallon MegaPaks®. Shipping options are designed for reconditioning to save on disposal costs, are not federally regulated, and do not require following hazardous shipping requirements. Cresset also offers a limited warranty against defects in materials for a period of 1 year from purchase. For more detailed information call 800-367-2020, or visit our website at: www.cresset.com.

CRETE-LESE-880-VOC-Xtra / APPLICATION: Crete-Lease 880-VOC-Xtra comes ready to use. For optimal results, form surfaces must be clean and dry before spraying, rolling, brushing,
