Liebherr...

Bearings Work for Multiple Applications Liebherr is a leading global manufacturer and supplier of large diameter bearings and has almost 60 years of experience in the development, design and manufacture of ball bearing slewing rings and roller bearing slewing rings. Large diameter bearings are produced in facilities located in Biberach an der Riss, Germany, and Monterrey, Mexico, in various dimensions and designs in accordance with customer specifications. The current product range includes large diameter bearings, which may be single row or double row four-point contact bearings, triple row roller bearings or special bearings. Liebherr currently manufactures and supplies bearings with a diameter range of 16 to 236 in. (40 to 600 cm). Other sizes may be available on request. Large diameter bearings are utilized in a wide array of applications such as earthmoving machinery, wind turbines, mining equipment, maritime applications and vehicle technology, as well as machine tool applications. Large diameter bearings are key components in many types of construction machinery. They must work reliably and safely under constantly changing loads and in some instances under extremely arduous ambient conditions. Four-point contact bearings are primarily used in earthmoving, building and civil engineering machinery, while roller bearings are typically utilized in mobile cranes due to their special requirements, according to the company. To guarantee reliable operation throughout the service life of the large diameter bearing, Liebherr pays particular attention to three important factors regarding the production of components: The reliable design of the bearing, the control of the production processes and the systematic quality control using the very latest test methods. Reliable Design of Large Diameter Bearings The major challenges when designing a bearing for economical use in construction machinery include ensuring optimal adaptability to the environment in which it is used as well as its adaptability to the service life of the machinery. Safety related aspects of the application also must be considered. In order to achieve these goals, the inner load distribution must be determined. Conventionally, axial forces

and bending torque are calculated using equations from technical mechanics, whereby the large diameter bearing is treated as a thin section tube, assuming ideal adjacent assembly structures are in place. The influences of the design of the adjacent constructions above and below the bearing are not taken into account. The adjacent constructions on the uppercarriage and undercarriage of mobile cranes, for example, have greatly differing rigidities as well as large variations in rigidity which can be detected at the circumference of the adjacent construction. Under load, this leads to uneven strain on the internal and external ring in addition to differing contact angles in the area of the highly stressed rolling elements. As a worst case scenario, this could lead to the bearings’ racetrack running on its edge and/or restraints in the racetrack system. These effects lead to detrimental influences on the service life of the bearing and therefore must be investigated with the help of conventional analytical configuration methods. For application cases which cannot be calculated sufficiently with conventional methods, Liebherr examines large diameter bearings much more precisely by using the finite element method (FEM), according to the company. The programs employed by Liebherr enables its engineers to produce precise CAD models of the adjacent assembly structures (e.g. the uppercarriage or undercarriage). In addition to analyzing the complete system, Liebherr employs FEM to analyze the forces and contact angles acting on the individual rolling elements. An in-house developed software is used to evaluate the Hertzian pressure and stress acting on the material. This intensively scrutinizes the probability of the bearings’ racetrack running on its edge as explained above. The design and calculation procedure is supplemented by bolt calculations and investigations of the load-bearing behavior of the gearing. The product is optimally configured by accounting for all pertinent application details. Control of Critical Hardening Process A wide range of production processes are employed during the manufacturing of high-quality large diameter bearings. However, the greatest influence on the quality of any bearing is the hardening process. Its flawless execu-

tion is critical to the service life of a large diameter bearing. When it comes to large diameter bearings for construction machinery, the raceway and gearing are hardened via induction heating. In this process, all influencing parameters, such as the frequency and induction voltage, the feed rate of the induction tool, the coolants’ temperature and flow as well as the timing of the quenching must be precisely coordinated. Only then will undesirable tension fractures be systematically and reliably avoided. The optimal required hardening depth and degree of hardness are determined on the basis of strength assessment. In addition to the manufacturing processes utilized by Liebherr, the company also relies on employing skilled personnel with extensive training and experience in the production of large diameter bearings. With modern technology and specially developed induction tools, Liebherr consistently manufactures high quality bearings up to 236 in. in diameter, according to the company. Systematic and Comprehensive Quality Control Liebherr supplements an ideal design for large diameter bearings and the use of efficient production technologies with systematic quality control. Certification in accordance with DIN EN ISO 9001 is the minimum standard. Moreover, Liebherr employs a consistent, computer-based quality management system, which documents the process and work flow in production facilities. Liebherr has the latest testing and measuring tools at its disposal such as magnetic particle inspection testing, developed exclusively for the company. This enables potential hardness cracks in the magnetized bearing rings to be made visible with UV light. Liebherr has furthermore invested in an air-conditioned measuring room in which a 3D-portal machine measures bearings of 236 in. diameter with precision of only a few micrometers. Every bearing at Liebherr is subjected to crack tests and a 100 percent dimensional test. For more information, visit www.Liebherr.com.

Tim and Patty Watters have three daughters: Kelly, 23 (second from left) is a freshman in a landscape architecture masters program at the University of Minnesota; Grace, 21 (center, pictured a few years ago on high school graduation day) is now a junior at Lafayette College in Pennsylvania studying chemical engineering; and Laura, 19, is a freshman at Loyola College in Baltimore.

Watters Set to Help AED Reach New Heights in 2014 There’s an ancient legend from the times of the Aztecs about the origins of Pico de Orizaba, the highest mountain in Mexico — according to pre-Hispanic Olmec mythology, Orizaba was an eagle spirit that formed the 18,000-foot-high volcano. But one of the mountain’s very recent climbers didn’t hike to the summit to pay homage to the hot-tempered god — instead, Tim Watters is something of a free spirit himself, and scales tall mountains for the fun of it. Adventurer, entrepreneur, adapter, volunteer, rock music fan, former teacher, and agent of change, Watters is AED’s 2014 Chairman, and he’s ready to help the association soar to new heights and shift into its next era of serving all of its members. During an inaugural ceremony at the AED Summit in Houston on Friday, Jan. 17, former AED Chairman Dennis Kruepke installed Watters as the association’s 96th chief volunteer leader. Watters is the president of Hoffman Equipment based in Piscataway, N.J. The multiline, five-branch dealership serves contractors in New Jersey, Southern New York State including New York City and Long Island. The company represents Case Construction Equipment at three locations, Doosan and JCB at two, and all five stores offer Manitowoc (including the Grove brand), Atlas Copco, and Terex trucks. He’s

the third generation owner of the 80-year-old family company that has, itself, transformed many times to adapt to changing market conditions — in fact, Hoffman Equipment didn’t begin at all in construction equipment; that chapter wasn’t written till the 1980s. But we’ll get to the history a bit later. Today, the company employs 80 people and runs very lean, Watters says, but the culture feels like family. “We must be doing something right, because we have a lot of alumni — people who may leave for whatever reason, and alot of them come back,” he said. Watters’ involvement with AED goes back about 25 years. He joined Hoffman Equipment in 1985 while his dad, Joe Watters, was president, and a few years later, as he took on more responsibility as sales manager, Tim found that AED’s annual meeting was a must-attend event — and he hasn’t missed one since. He became the association’s Northeast regional director in 2007, serving a threeterm, and then accepted Kruepke’s invitation to “join the chairs” of AED officers, moving through the ranks as vice president, senior vice president, then vice chairman, before assuming his role this year in the top seat. And AED isn’t the only recipient of his volunteer leadership. Watters is serving a three-year term that began last spring on the board of the National Commission for the

Tim Watters

Certification of Crane Operators. He’s also the chairman and chief volunteer officer on the board for his own community’s YMCA in Red Bank, N.J. Top Jobs Watters spent the second half of 2013 leading another somewhat historic project for AED, chairing a search committee to find and hire the association’s new president and CEO. Together with a team of AED officers, past chairmen, and AED Executive Vice President Bob Henderson, Watters completed that mission late in the fall, and Brian McGuire officially debuted as the top staff executive last month. So, with that major task checked off, what is Priority No. 1 on Watters’ list for 2014? “CEO transitions aren’t always easy, they can be disruptive — so the most important thing is to do whatever we can to ensure that Brian McGuire is a success as our new

CEO,” he said. “Maybe I should stay the heck out of his way,” he laughed. “Job 2 is we need to re-engage with our members,” Watters added. “We have a declining membership, and we can’t continue long as a successful association if our membership continues to decline.” Acknowledging that the industry is in consolidation mode, he pointed out that although AED member dealerships are becoming larger companies, there are plainly fewer of them. So, in addition to bringing more dealers into the fold, Watters says AED’s got to connect at another level. “We have to figure out a way to engage all the distributors that are not currently AED members, and also to engage more deeply with our current members,” he said. “If you have a member that used to have one location and used to send the CEO to AED functions, but then through a consolidation they see WATTERS page 30

AEM Names New ConExpo-Con/AGG Staff Show Director Heavy Equipment Services offers sandblasting and body work for all makes and models of heavy equipment, attachments, trucks and trailers.

Heavy Equipment Services performs a wide range of paint jobs, including large machinery as well as pipe, signs and lawn furniture.

RoadBuilders’ Subsidiary Offers Old Iron Sandblasting, Paint Services To your customers, competitors and the general public, the condition of your equipment on a job site says a lot about your company. If your machines are beaten up, rusted out and dirty, the impression to outsiders is probably not positive. On the other hand, if they are clean, bright and good-looking, that’s a great advertisement. It tells the project owner and other prospective customers that this company takes pride in its work and knows what it’s doing. You probably have equipment that’s a few years old and still runs fine, but it may be starting to look a little ragged. As the construction season heats up, now is a great time to be proactive and spruce up your machines.

Heavy Equipment Services, a subsidiary of RoadBuilders, offers this service. “We offer paint, sandblasting and body-work services for all makes and models of heavy equipment, attachments, trucks and trailers,” said Heavy Equipment Services Manager Jeremy Lapka. “We’ll work on a single machine or your entire fleet. Our goal is to be the ‘go-to’ paint shop, not only for RoadBuilders but for all heavy equipment in the area.” Located at 1000 S. Mill St. in Kansas City, Kan., Heavy Equipment Services is just a few blocks from RoadBuilders’s headquarters. In addition to Lapka, key people in the operation include Shop Foreman Steve

Horning, longtime painter Ron Johnson and painter/sandblaster John Denton. “RoadBuilders acquired this paint shop a few months ago,” said Lapka. “It’s a nice facility, and we have talented employees. In addition to equipment and trucks, we can perform a wide range of other paint jobs, including pipe, signs and lawn furniture. If it’s metal, we can sandblast it, paint it and make it look like new.” (This story was reprinted with permission from RoadBuilders’ EDGE Magazine Issue No. 1, 2014.)

The Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) announces a new ConExpo-Con/AGG staff show director and related updates, as it promotes from within a strong staff for its roster of industry-leading trade exhibitions. Sara Truesdale Mooney has been named ConExpoCon/AGG show director, managing AEM’s flagship exposition. Mooney is AEM senior director exhibitions and strategy; she also serves as show director for ICUEE — The Demo Expo and as exhibitions lead for AEM’s agriculture sector. Mooney takes over day-to-day ConExpo-Con/AGG planning responsibilities from Megan Tanel, AEM vice president exhibition and events, as Tanel focuses on expanded strategy and planning duties for the association’s growing portfolio of trade shows, meetings and events. Tanel also is a member of the AEM senior management team and is 2015 chair of the IAEE International Association of Exhibitions and Events. Melissa Magestro has assumed lead staff liaison responsibilities for AEM’s international exhibitions, including ConExpo Latin America, which launches in 2015 in Santiago, Chile. Magestro is AEM senior director exhibitions and heads up AEM exhibit and sponsorship sales; she also serves as IFPE show director. In addition to ConExpo Latin America, AEM’s international show presence includes bC India and bauma ConExpo Africa. And, Rich Prausa continues to serve as AEM staff lead and show manager for World of Asphalt Show & Conference and AGG1 Aggregates Academy & Expo while realigning his role within the association’s events services department to take on more responsibilities. He is AEM event services manager. “One of the ways we develop staff depth is through opportunities for career advancement throughout AEM and an emphasis on staff training,” said Tanel. “The result is a staff that develops a strong knowledge base of our members’ industries to better serve member interests. And many of our events staff are recognized as subject matter experts, offering best-practices insights at exhibition industry educational events. AEM organizes trade shows as well as meetings and events as a key business-development service for association members and the off-road equipment industry. AEM shows are industry-run in which participants have a voice in show planning, industry partnerships enhance value, costs are carefully monitored and revenues go back into industry services.

Liability Insurance...

Case Threatens Alabama Subcontractors’ CGL Coverage Even though the Alabama Supreme Court recently issued an opinion in a case that confirmed coverage for construction defects under state law, subcontractors in Alabama are facing another threat to the coverage for which they pay premiums. “Construction insureds pay substantial premiums for liability insurance to protect themselves from property damage arising out of inadvertent and alleged construction defects,” the American Subcontractors Association, the Associated General Contractors of America and the Alabama AGC wrote in an amici curiae brief to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit in Pennsylvania National Mutual Casualty Insurance Company v. St. Catherine of Siena Parish. “Only a few months ago, the Alabama Supreme Court issued its opinion in Owners Ins. v. Jim Carr, a case that confirmed coverage for construction defects under Alabama law. The district court’s application of the Contractual Liability Exclusion supports a back door circumvention of that coverage through an unwarranted over-extension of the Contractual Liability Exclusion. Taken to its logical end, that over-extension will result in the elimination of the coverage preserved in Jim Carr. Therefore, Amici Curiae request the court reverse the district court and render

judgment in favor of St. Catherine’s.” In the underlying case, the dispute involved a project by the parish to replace the roof on two of its buildings with a 40year roof shingle. The parish contracted with Kiker Corporation for the work, and Kiker obtained a commercial general liability policy through carrier Penn National. The policy provided coverage to claims for property damage caused by an “occurrence” defined an as “an accident.” The policy also contained the standard “your work” and “contractual liability” exclusions. Kiker subcontracted the roofing portion of the work and work was completed in March 2004 on one building and in February 2005 on the second building. The second building almost immediately began leaking and two years later the first building also began to leak, causing extensive damage. Despite repair efforts, the problems were not fixed and the parish hired a roof inspector, who investigated and claimed the leaks were caused by installation errors, construction defects and other breaches by Kiker. The parish sued and, though Penn National defended Kiker, it did so under a reservation of rights, claiming there would be no coverage under the policy for damages caused by a breach of contract or breach of warranty. At trial, the jury awarded the parish

$350,000 in compensatory damages for breach of contract. After the verdict, Penn National initiated a declaratory judgment action in federal court asking the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Alabama to determine whether it was responsible to indemnify Kiker and pay the verdict. Penn National argued it had no such obligation because a breach of contract claim was not an “occurrence” under the policy and even if such claims were an occurrence, the contractual liability and/or “your work” exclusions would bar recovery. The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Alabama held that there was coverage for the property damage caused by the leaks because an “accident” meant an unintended and unforeseen injury and the allegedly faulty workmanship led to damage to other areas of the structure and thus damage beyond simply the cost to replace the defective roof. The court held that the “your work” exclusion did not bar recovery for the cost of the defective roof replacement because the subcontractor had performed the roofing work. However, the court used the “contractual liability” exclusion to deny coverage of any claims arising from a breach of contract, stating “under binding Alabama law the breach of contract claim and the implied warranty claim are excluded from

coverage under the contractual liability exclusion.” Kiker petitioned the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals asking it to reverse or certify the question of the breach of the contractual liability exclusion to the Alabama Supreme Court. In their brief, the associations wrote: “Some insurers are extremely adept at finding reasons, some would say excuses, to deny what otherwise appear to be claims more than arguably within the coverage of the policy. This is particularly true as to claims involving allegedly defective workmanship by insured contractors under their commercial general liability policies, and if the position advocated by Pennsylvania National is adopted by this Court, insurers will invariably have yet another excuse to deny legitimate claims. Applying the Contractual Liability Exclusion to property damage to an insured contractor’s work simply because that property damage may breach its contract has a profoundly negative effect on CGL coverage for the construction industry.” ASA’s Subcontractors Legal Defense Fund financed the brief.

Groups Want Tougher Action on Great Lakes Pipeline By John Flesher AP ENVIRONMENTAL WRITER

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) Some environmental groups are asking Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder to get state government more directly involved in efforts to determine the condition of an oil pipeline beneath the Straits of Mackinac and to guard against spills. More than a dozen organizations signed a letter contending Snyder has the power to demand answers from Enbridge Energy Partners LP about the line, which was laid in 1953. It is part of the 1,900-mi. Lakehead network, which originates in North Dakota near the Canadian border. A segment known as Line 5 runs through northern Wisconsin and Michigan’s Upper Peninsula

before ducking beneath the Straits of Mackinac and winding up in Sarnia, Ontario. The line divides into two 20-in. (50.8 cm) pipes beneath the straits at depths reaching 270 ft. (82 m) and carries nearly 23 million gallons of crude oil daily. The 5-mi.wide straits area, which links Lakes Michigan and Huron, is ecologically sensitive and a major tourist draw. “To date, the position of the state has been that they don’t have jurisdiction to do much but can encourage a review’’ by the U.S. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, said Jim Olson, president of FLOW, based in Traverse City. “What has been missing for 60 years is the state’s assertion of its authority as trustee of the bottomlands and the waters of the Great Lakes.’’

Snyder spokeswoman Sara Wurfel said, “We appreciate and share the concern expressed in this letter for protecting Michigan’s waters. That’s exactly why our administration, in coordination and cooperation with the attorney general, has taken multiple steps to date, including the formation of a special task force to look at these very issues.’’ The state attorney general’s office and the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality posed a lengthy series of questions to Enbridge about the pipeline in April. The agencies received the company’s response in late June, said Brad Wurfel, spokesman of the DEQ. The information will be made public after it’s reviewed by the task force that DEQ Director Dan Wyant and Attorney General Bill

Schuette appointed to look into all pipelines transporting oil around the state, Brad Wurfel said. “It’s an enormous amount of information,’’ he said. “The task force members are looking forward to reviewing it. We’re as concerned as anyone about the protection of Michigan’s waters.’’ Enbridge Energy Partners is a unit of Calgary, Alberta-based Enbridge Inc. Company spokesman Larry Springer said the straits pipeline crossing “has operated without incident since its construction, and through even greater oversight and the use of new technology, Enbridge is committed to maintaining this incident-free record into the future.’’ The environmental groups said Michigan’s recent actions were encouraging but more should be

done. They said conditions of an easement that the state granted Enbridge when the pipelines were placed beneath the straits give Snyder leverage to demand detailed information about the contents, safety and use of Line 5. Another legal tool would be the Great Lakes Submerged Lands Act, which provides for protection and preservation of the public’s interest in bottomlands, the groups said. State leaders “have broad authority to demand that Enbridge conform to the duties and standards and correct or address any violations or potential violations of public trust law,’’ the letter said.

Volvo Excavators Assist Chicago Contractor in Tight Spot By Christine Reckner CEG ASSOCIATE EDITOR

Taylor Excavating & Wrecking Inc., a family-run business serving Chicago and its suburbs, specializes in working in tight downtown areas. So when President and Owner Tommy Taylor found the machine that worked best for these conditions, he went back and ordered two more. Currently demoing two buildings at 1100 North Street, a commercial building and a three-story condo building (that was finished in January), Taylor Excavating purchased its first Volvo ECR235DL crawler excavator in 2013 from the local full service distributor McAllister Equipment Co. “Shortly after we purchased a second one. In 2014 we purchased another ECR235DL because they are good machines in the tight downtown areas,” said Taylor. “The machine has enough power to work in these conditions and we are very happy with these

machines.” The ECR235DL hydraulic excavator is a short radius hydraulic digger that easily maneuvers in and out of confined work areas that include construction, excavation, slope finishing, landscape finishing, truck loading, trenching, pipe lifting and more. Some of the top features of the excavator include compact swing radius, Tier IV engine, a general mode with three speed stages, a spacious cab, easy service area and CareTrack telematics. In addition to being very happy with the equipment, Taylor said he also was impressed with the quality of service he received from McAllister. “McAllister Equipment Co. has been a great McAllister Equipment Co. Area Manager Steve company to deal Ames (L) and Tommy Taylor, president of with and service- Taylor Excavating & Wrecking.

wise they are always on the phone when I need them,” said Taylor, adding that none of the machines have given him any issues. Taylor founded the company in 2001. He traveled from Ireland to the United States in 1999 and spent

his first two years in the country working as an operator for another company before deciding to join Local 150 and progressing to his own company. The company’s skilled workforce of 25 employees and specialized heavy equipment is designed to provide customers with safe, cost effective demolition and wrecking services in a timely and professional manner. In 1955, McAllister Equipment Co. began meeting the needs of a broad range of contractors and other equipment users throughout the Chicago land area. Since that time, the company has expanded to five branches, serving more than 70 counties in northern/central Illinois and northwestern Indiana. As a full-service distributorship, McAllister Equipment Co. caters to virtually every segment of the construction, industrial, and municipal industries.

Workforce, Education Programs Benefit AED Members

Watters’ thriving export business has taken him to African customer sites where a security team accompanied him. WATTERS from page 22

ended up with six locations, we somehow have to engage that distributor at the branch manager level, too; or the marketing manager and service manager levels. We also need to re-engage our manufacturers.” AED, known for its strong and effective lobbying presence in Washington, D.C., as well as growing influence in Ottawa, has built a highly respected advocacy team led by Vice President of Government Affairs Christian Klein. And this program, Watters is pleased to note, is a finely tuned machine that will continue working in the capital cities with the relentless goal of reducing members’ costs of doing business and general regulatory headaches stemming from federal policy. “With regards to advocacy, we’ve got a good thing going there, and we will continue to support Christian and his group as we have for the last several years,” Watters said. “It’s good. And if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. We don’t want to mess it up.” The same is true with The AED Foundation, the new Chairman says. Strong workforce development and continuing education programs are benefitting members, “and again,” said Watters, “if it ain’t broke, let’s not fix it. “But with regard to membership and engagement of our members, we are working in a changing environment and we need to adapt — quickly.” Chameleon Company Watters comes from a long line of adapters. Over the many decades since brothers Bill

(Tim’s grandfather) and Harry Hoffman started their trucking and delivery company in 1925, Hoffman Equipment has rolled and jumped through lots of market changes in the business landscape, altering its appearance swift as a chameleon and reinventing its business model to fit with the times and survive. During a time when most things were delivered by horse and wagon, the Hoffman brothers bought a truck and launched a local delivery business that grew to sizeable proportions, for its day. After serving as Seabees in World War II, the brothers came home and changed the focus of the company dramatically into a trucking and rigging firm. Throughout the ‘50s and ‘60s, Watters says, Hoffman Equipment was involved in all the region’s big rigging projects, including most of the nuclear power plants in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. Watters tells the narrative as if it is family folklore he’s heard his whole life. In 1962, when Tim was barely in Kindergarten, ownership was transferred to Harry Hoffman, Jr., and the company became deeply involved in container stevedoring at the region’s ports, including Newark, New York and Baltimore. They owned the first 300-ton truck crane built by P&H, which they grew to a fleet of nine — during the adolescence of containerization, they were ideal machines for offloading 40foot containers from ships to trucks. Then, without much warning, both of Hoffman’s primary industries dried up almost overnight. Three Mile Island more or less killed the nuclear power plant business

Hoffman Equipment’s certified technicians perform a wide variety of repair and remanufacturing services at all five locations.

and the advent of permanent container cranes squeezed Harry’s truck cranes out of the picture — both businesses were suddenly obsolete. What to do, what to do? Should he sell? Watters’ Uncle Harry Hoffman was looking for a way out, but in the end, he found a way to adapt. Changing the company’s color, figuratively speaking, he bought a small, FiatAllis equipment distributor in Piscataway, N.J. “Our company did a big pivot from a rigging and crane business into the distribution business. That was 1978. Harry made another change, as well, and added two partners: his brother-in-law and Tim’s father, Joe Watters, and Harry’s cousin, Bill Hoffman. Shortly afterward, Harry retired and owners Joe and Bill ran the company.

Shifting Gears, Again And the amazing, morphing Hoffman Equipment became a new business once again. “Our experience in the ports had introduced us to a lot of foreign companies,” said Watters, “and it was in the mid-’70s that we really got our feet wet in the exporting business.” So the distribution business became a great conduit for Hoffman Equipment’s export operation of U.S.-made equipment to jobsites around the world. For example, they supplied all the equipment to two major Italian contractors for large infrastructure projects in Iran, Colombia, and Venezuela — 100 to 200 pieces of equipment each, plus parts and technical support.

Serving Wisconsin, Illinois...

Terex Signs Sargent’s Equipment as Terex Fuchs Dealer Terex Construction Americas has announced Sargents Equipment and Repair Service as an authorized distributor of Terex Fuchs material handlers for central and northern Illinois, including the entire Chicago market area, and the eastern, southern and northern portions of Wisconsin. Sargents Equipment now provides its scrap, recycling, portside and logging customers with sales and after-thesale support for the broad Terex Fuchs equipment line, purposebuilt for efficient material handling. “Sargents Equipment has built a solid reputation for providing strong service support for the equipment lines they represent,” said Terex Construction Americas Sales Director Martin Gonzalez. “Mike Sargent [president of Sargents Equipment] grew up in the scrap market and has a unique

understanding of the critical role material handling equipment plays in the success of an operation.” Regional sales manager of Terex Fuchs equipment Mike Myslicki added, “While Sargents Equipment is well known throughout the scrap, recycling and demolition markets, its approach to providing 24/7 customer service and support will be an asset for companies operating in the logging and portside markets as well.” With operating weights from 41,888 to 147,710 lb. (19,000 to 67,000 kg), the reliable, quick and efficient Terex Fuchs material handler line features durable wheeland track-driven undercarriage designs, powered by fuel-efficient turbocharged diesel engines. Alternatively, the models can be powered by zero exhaust emissions electric motors in either semi-mobile or stationary designs.

Elevating cabs and intuitive controls boost operator productivity, while features such as rigid hydraulic pipes on the stick and double-row slewing ring increase machine durability and longevity. The recently introduced Terex Fuchs Telematics system for the machines provides critical operating data to help operations control costs, while increasing handler uptime. “Sargents Equipment has grown from the service side of the business, and our owner, as well as key field personnel, has been involved in scrap-related businesses for years,” said Sargents Equipment’s Vice President of sales Don Davies. “We understand the need for today’s processors to run more efficiently, since margins have gotten very tight. We have been looking for a rugged, reliable and purpose-

built rubber tire material handler line to support our customers’ needs. Terex Fuchs has what we and our customers are looking for in a material handler, and the new Telematics system offered on Terex Fuchs machines allows us to be proactive from the service side to help improve our customers’ bottom line.” Specializing in the recycling industry, Sargents Equipment has the experience, knowledge and expertise to service any piece of equipment, from material handling to stationary processing equipment. The company provides customers with local support from two Illinois locations: its south Chicago Heights headquarters and Gilberts branch. Factory trained technicians are dispatched any time, day or night, with fully equipped trucks to quickly identify issues and service equipment in the field.

Sargents Equipment offers financing options for Terex Fuchs material handlers through Terex Financial Services (TFS). TFS offers a wide range of effective finance and leasing solutions, structured to complement customers’ cash flow and budgets. The TFS team assists in all areas of asset management, from the analysis of future equipment values through the disposal of used equipment. Sargents Equipment’s headquarters is located at 281 E. Sauk Trail, So. Chicago Heights, IL, 60411. For more information, call 708/758-2062 or visit www.sargentsequipment.com.

Kentucky Road Projects Delayed Due to Federal Shortfall By Adam Beam ASSOCIATED PRESS

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) Kentucky transportation officials have delayed $185 million worth of road construction projects — including a project to widen a dangerous stretch of I-65 — because of a looming shortfall in the federal Highway Trust Fund. The trust fund is the main way states pay for most major construction projects. The money comes from the federal gas tax that drivers pay at the pump — 18.4 cents per gallon for gasoline and 24.4 cents per gallon for diesel fuel. That gas tax has not increased since 1993, and the fund has slowly been running out of money. Congress has had to transfer money into the fund to keep it solvent. U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx joined Democratic Gov. Steve Beshear at the state Capitol on July 2 to urge federal lawmakers to fix the problem by Aug. 1 or else states will begin to

see cuts of at least 28 percent. For Kentucky, that could mean losing more than $180 million per year. Beshear said the state has already delayed projects as a precaution, including a project to widen a stretch of I-65 near Elizabethtown. The road has been the scene of several high profile fatal crashes, including a wreck that killed a groom returning from his wedding in 2011 and a crash that killed a family of six from Wisconsin in 2013. “While we hope to go out for bid on them in August we’re not sure that we’re going to be able to and that is devastating,’’ Beshear said. “Because of Congress’ inaction, that project is on hold. And the risk to drivers because of safety concerns is growing every day.’’ Beshear and Foxx touted a plan that would tax the overseas profits of American corporations to help stop the shortfall in the trust fund. “The country that is expecting 100 million more people by 2050, a country that will basically need to double its freight capacity over that

“Congress has spent $80 billion dollars of non-military aid in Afghanistan, and has promised another $20 billion. It’s time to focus on our transportation infrastructure at home instead of sending U.S. taxpayer money overseas to build infrastructure.’’ Thomas Massie U.S. Representative

same time, this is the opposite of what we should be doing as a country,’’ Foxx said. A McConnell spokesman said the senator understands the “critical importance’’ of Kentucky’s transportation projects. “The Democrats in Congress have already rejected the President’s idea and instead are working in a bipartisan, bicameral way to find solutions and those dis-

cussions are underway,’’ spokesman Robert Steurer said. “Senator McConnell looks forward to the full Senate addressing this important extension once [Senate Majority Leader Harry] Reid brings the issue to the Senate floor for consideration.’’ U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie, a northern Kentucky Republican who serves on the House Transportation and Infrastructure

Committee, said Congress should cut some of the $80 billion in foreign aid to Afghanistan to make the Highway Trust Fund solvent. “Congress has spent $80 billion dollars of non-military aid in Afghanistan, and has promised another $20 billion,’’ he said. “It’s time to focus on our transportation infrastructure at home instead of sending U.S. taxpayer money overseas to build infrastructure.’’ Kentucky Transportation Cabinet Secretary Mike Hancock said the risk is not to the state’s road fund — which has a balance of more than $500 million — but in not being reimbursed from the federal Highway Trust Fund as state officials had expected. “Our biggest concern is as we look ahead, as the stack of IOUs mount, obviously the decisions become more and more difficult about how we use road fund cash to offset that,’’ he said.

LiuGong Earns Spot Among Best Performing Firms in China Global Entrepreneur, a respected business and financial media outlet in China, announced the “2013-2014 Top 50 Best Performing Companies in China.” With outstanding market performance and remarkable achievements in 2013, Guangxi LiuGong Machinery Co. Ltd. along with Caterpillar, Sandvik, Toyota, Huawei and other well-known companies, was recognized in the “Top 50” list. Huang Haibo, vice president of LiuGong Machinery, was invited to attend the event and to participate in the “Billions Companies Roundtable” with many business leaders. The award was first launched in 2004 by Global Entrepreneur magazine. As the Chinese market plays an increasingly important role in the global economy, the companies who receive the award are well respected not only in the Chinese market but in the global marketplace. The award not only takes financial results into consideration, but also pays attention to whether the companies are trying new strategies and seeking new business opportunities in the changing market. The global construction machinery market witnessed its most difficult period from 2011 to 2013, while China’s construction equipment market also has been in a difficult situation. LiuGong, a global leader in manufacturing a full line of extreme duty equipment, captured the good times of a booming Chinese market and then weathered the industry downturns. The company remains confident and has stuck to its global market strategy with smart thinking and a long term plan. In spite of continuous challenges and tough market conditions, LiuGong’s net profit in 2013 increased by 20.41 percent, with overseas market sales growing by 15

percent year on year. While the overall overseas sales of Chinese loader manufacturers declined, LiuGong grew by 19 percent with forklift sales in overseas markets up by 50 percent.

Over the past year, LiuGong took a series of actions in its globalization strategy, demonstrating its confidence and commitment. In 2013, LiuGong opened a new global parts center and laid the foundation stone of the international R&D center, including R&D offices, a testing center and testing field. Continued investment in R&D and after-sales market is a move to provide better service and support to the customers. And the cooperation with world-class partners is another solid strategy. It provides LiuGong with a competitive advantage both in China and around the world. And conversely, LiuGong offers extensive support to its partners with its resources in research and development, marketing and service support. In 2013, LiuGong’s joint venture with Cummins made its official start of operations in Liuzhou and the company held a celebration for the completion of the first prototype JV axle, the AP3000, with ZF. And subsequently last June, LiuGong set up a new joint venture with Wuling Group, a General Motors supplier, to produce cabs and sheet metal components for LiuGong machines. The same business synergy has been formed with Dressta. After the acquisition, the company has built up a stronger LiuGong and Dressta dealer network. The Dressta product line is an integral part of LiuGong’s product line and it is a critical part of their value proposition to dealers and the market as a full line OEM supplier.

Ceremony Marks Production of One Million Bobcat Loaders Producing one million Bobcat loaders is not only an unparalleled industry achievement that has impacted the livelihood of compact equipment users worldwide it also has touched the lives of thousands more who have designed, built and backed generations of the most popular compact loaders for nearly 60 years. Bobcat Company marked this tremendous milestone with a formal ceremony on July 12, sharing the occasion with its valued employees and the community of Gwinner, N.D., home to Bobcat’s primary production facility. The company also celebrated with family members of those who invented the original loader, perfected the design, brought it to market and created the brand five decades ago. Past organizational leaders and hundreds of others who have been part of the Bobcat success story also were present at the event. The ceremony was held at the Gwinner The millionth Bobcat skid steer loader rolls off the line and out of the factory and featured remarks from Rich Gwinner factory. Goldsbury, president of Bobcat and Doosan (parent company of Bobcat) of North America; Gwinner Mayor Dan McKeever; North Dakota Lt. Gov. Drew Wrigley; North Dakota Sen. John Hoeven and North Dakota Congressman Kevin Cramer. Sylvan Melroe, one of the organization’s first marketing managers, talked about the perseverance of the Melroe family, who owned Melroe Manufacturing, and built the first Bobcat loaders. He reflected upon the early days of the loader — as it transitioned from the original three-wheeled version to the skid steer loader we know today — and how Melroe Manufacturing improved the design that became increasingly tested by challenging jobs the more the machine grew in popularity. Cyril Keller, one of the brothers who invented the original three-wheeled loader and soon after partnered with Melroe Manufacturing, was on-hand as well. The ceremony culminated with a product line roll-off of a loaders rolled off the line during the Millionth special edition one-millionth bobcat loader, which Bobcat is Two Loader ceremony: loader number one-million, a skid selling in limited quantities through authorized dealers. steer loader; and loader number one-million-one, a compact track loader version.

The Loader That Launched An Industry The million-loader celebration honors the revolutionary three-wheeled loader engineered by brothers Cyril and Louis Keller of Rothsay, Minn., designed to clean turkey manure out of barns. Second-generation Melroe Manufacturing Company leaders — sons of founder Edward Gideon “E.G.” Melroe — Clifford, Lester, Roger and Irving Melroe; and their brother-in-law Eugene Dahl saw strong potential for the machine to meet the needs of any livestock farmer. In 1958, the Gwinner-based manufacturer bought the rights to this innovative three-wheeled loader, and Louis and Cyril Keller became employees of the Melroe Manufacturing Company, assigned to put the loader into production. The Keller Loader, as the original machine was called, was improved with a larger 9- hp engine, and a new product line for the Melroe Company was born — the M-60, a three-wheeled Melroe selfpropelled loader. It was the forerunner of what became the Bobcat skid steer loader and ultimately launched the compact equipment industry. Then, in 1960 the company built the first true skid steer loader with four-wheel drive. In 1962, the loaders were branded “Bobcat” after the “tough, quick and agile” prairie animal. Today, the Bobcat name still matches the performance qualities of the enduring international brand. Bobcat Company has become North Dakota’s largest manufacturer with more than 2,000 employees in the state. Bobcat products have representation through more than 900 dealers in more than 100 countries with production facilities in Gwinner, Bismarck and Wahpeton, N.D.; Litchfield, Minn.; France and the Czech Republic. “This entire celebration is about much more than a single loader, the actual millionth machine,” Goldsbury said. “It represents everything Bobcat has accomplished as an organization over six decades, and it signifies our vision for the future. We embrace and honor our history, so it was particularly special to have some of the company’s pioneers and early leaders here. But we wanted to bring them together with those who are moving us forward into the new era — those who will help us build the next million loaders.”

MOVE LLC...

Dunwoody College Manufacturers Respond to Skilled Labor Shortage A skilled labor shortage is impacting manufacturers located between Delano, Winsted, Hutchinson and Litchfield in the west central region of Minnesota. In response to the region’s employment needs, Dunwoody College of Technology has partnered with MOVE LLC — “Manufacturing Opportunities for Vocational Employment” — to create a Corporate and Community Training Center (CCTC) in Winsted. Industry leaders contacted the College’s Work Force Training & Continuing Education department last December saying the area was in dire need of skilled welders and CNC machine operators. They stressed that a skilled workforce was crucial to help companies grow their businesses and meet the manufacturing demands of their customers. MOVE is made up of more than 12 local manufacturers that have committed to providing employment opportunities with a good wage and benefits for successful graduates from the 16-week training program. This fall 12 students will be admitted for a one-semester welding technician program. A second welding class will follow in March 2015. A 16-week CNC machine operator program is being considered for 2015-2016. Class sizes will be small with an emphasis on hands-on, applied learning uti-

lizing customized curriculum focusing on the skills needed by the local manufacturing companies. The industry-recognized, non-credit training programs provide a local alternative to the traditional two-year and four-year post-secondary college pathways. They allow recent high school graduates or other adult learners the opportunity to stay in the immediate area while enrolled in training during the day — minimizing transportation and housing costs they’d accrue by leaving the west central region. Enrollment for the first welding program is currently open and classes are scheduled to begin on Sept. 15. The former NAPA Auto Parts building in downtown Winsted, owned by Millerbernd Manufacturing, is being converted into the Dunwoody CCTC. The goal of the CCTC is to provide a pool of skilled workers, reduce hiring and training costs for new employees, and support the industry’s immediate and future needs through customized curriculum.

World’s Biggest Mall in Dubai to Include Theme Park, Climate Controlled Streets By Adam Schreck ASSOCIATED PRESS

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) The shopping-loving city that is home to one of the world’s largest shopping malls wants to build one even bigger. Dubai ruler Sheik Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum has laid out plans for a sprawling real-estate project known as Mall of the World that will include the 8 million sq. ft. mall, a climate-controlled street network, a theme park covered during the scorching summer months and 100 hotels and serviced apartments. Other attractions planned for the site include a cultural and theater district drawing inspiration from New York’s Broadway, shopping thoroughfares based on London’s Oxford Street and a “wellness district’’ meant to attract medical tourists. “The growth in family and retail tourism underpins the need to enhance Dubai’s tourism infrastructure as soon as possible,’’ Sheik Mohammed said in

a statement announcing the project. “This project complements our plans to transform Dubai into a cultural, tourist and economic hub for the 2 billion people living in the region around us — and we are determined to achieve our vision.’’ Dubai Holding, a conglomerate controlled by the emirate’s ruler, is developing the complex. It gave no details on the cost or the completion date. The complex will be built near the Mall of the Emirates, which boasts an indoor ski slope, and a short drive from the Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest tower, and the adjacent Dubai Mall. That shopping center is currently the emirate’s largest and has attractions including a dinosaur skeleton, an indoor ice skating rink and a multistory aquarium. Dubai has long used high-profile, big-ticket real estate projects to drive economic growth and establish itself as an international tourist destination. Its ambitions were slowed significantly with a crippling financial crisis that came to a head in 2009, forcing the

delay or cancellation of some of the most outlandish projects. Dubai Holding was not spared from the financial turmoil, and some of its divisions sought new repayment terms from lenders on a debt pile that reached into the billions of dollars. The emirate’s economy has rebounded strongly in the years since the crisis, driven by its trade, transportation and tourism-dependent economy. Dubai is racing to develop additional infrastructure needed to accommodate a surge in visitors expected when it becomes the first Middle Eastern city to host the World Expo in 2020. Authorities expect the expo will generate $23 billion between 2015 and 2021, and estimate it will cost $8.4 billion to organize. The new mall project alone is expected to create an additional 20,000 hotel rooms. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

‘Atlantic Challenge’ Hopes to Win Solar Decathlon With Help From Manitou As part of the Solar Decathlon event, an international award-winning competition which gathers universities to design, build and operate a full- scale, entirely functional solar-powered house, the Manitou Group sponsors the “Atlantic Challenge” team (based in Nantes). Manitou Group provided a telehandler MT 835 to help assemble and disassemble their “Philéas” project. The Atlantic Challenge team counts students from 10 universities and “Grandes Ecoles” including the Ecole Supérieure du Bois, the School of Architecture of Nantes or the Ecole Centrale de Nantes, for example. The “Phileas” project developed by the Atlantic Challenge team aims to propose the rehabilitation of an old building in Nantes, Cap 44. The prototype developed for the competition is an extraction of the rehabilitation of the building, which was originally a flour mill built in 1895 along the Loire, then renovated in 1970 to provide offices. Today it is not used anymore. In order to provide exemplary restoration in environment and economic terms, Atlantic Challenge’s project will be based on local know-how and innovative solutions. The prototype was built in Nantes and will then be exhibited for the competition in the gardens of Versailles. At the end of the competition, the project will be rebuilt in Nantes (France) for educational purposes. “The loan of a telescopic rough terrain allowed the project team to carry heavy loads, to provide materials to facili-

Ohio. This project, when completed in the summer of 2015, will include two horizontal bulb type generating units capable of producing 37 megawatts of power with a gross head of 20 ft. It is expected to produce an average annual output of approximately 239 gWh. The project, commissioned by American Municipal Power Inc. (AMP), will supply power to its member communities. When completed, only 10 ft. (3 m) of the approximately 114-ft. (35 m) tall reinforced concrete structure will be visible above normal river water pool. MWH Global was commissioned to provide the design for the second phase of the project. The first phase of the two-phase project was a design-build project performed by The Ruhlin Company with its design consultants. The lead designer was Mueser Rutledge Consulting Engineers, which was done in collaboration with Geocomp Consultants Inc. and E.L. Robinson Engineering of Ohio. This included the design and then construction of a riverside and landside cofferdam, followed by the excavation of overburden to the top of rock and then the excavation of rock. “Prior to excavation of rock, 22 high capacity rock anchors were installed to support weak seams of rock within the excavation,” said Doug Hartz, Ruhlin’s project manager. “This phase also included a dewatering system capable of pumping 3,000 gallons per-minute,

Cranes are playing a key role in the current construction and this includes two tower cranes supplied by ALL Crane in Richfuield, Ohio, and those owned by Ruhlin — a 348 Link-Belt 400-ton (362 t) crawler crane, a Manitowoc 880 230-ton (209 t) crawler crane and several hydraulic cranes — Grove RT760Es.

an instrumentation system which included piezometers to measure ground water elevations inside the cofferdam, inclinometers to measure movement in the cellular cofferdam and rock, survey prisms and a robotic total station which measured any movements in temporary or permanent structures, tilt meters to measure movements in the dam piers, seismographs to measure vibration and finally, rock anchor strand sensors to measure load capacity in the anchors.”

This project, when completed in the summer of 2015, will include two horizontal bulb type generating units capable of producing 37 megawatts of power with a gross head of 20 ft. It is expected to produce an average annual output of approximately 239 gWh.

The cofferdam consists of a cellular sheet pile cofferdam installed in the river and a soil bentonite cutoff wall installed on the landside of the excavation. The sheet pile cofferdam included 16 62 ft. (19 m) diameter cells filled with wellgraded sand and driven to the top of rock. “The cofferdam also included an emergency floodgate with an overflow weir in the event of a 100year flood with a temporary bridge over the floodgate to access coffer-

dam cells and the dam,” said Hartz. “The landside cofferdam consisted of a three-foot wide soil bentonite slurry, which was mixed on site and installed to the top of rock with a long boom excavator. This portion of the cofferdam served as a means to control groundwater infiltration into the excavation and the stability of excavated slopes.” The design of the first phase of the project started in November of 2010 and construction started in June of 2011. The rock excavation

The site provides sufficient space for Ruhlin and the subcontractors to establish temporary offices and parking for their vehicles, equipment and materials.

was completed in December of 2012. The second phase of the project, which was designed by MWH Global, is the construction of a reinforced concrete powerhouse and its appurtenances. This includes the excavation of approach and tailrace channels with a navigational groin to divert the river through the powerhouse and a recreational area with a fishing pier located downstream of the powerhouse. The project is presenting Ruhlin with some interesting challenges. “The cellular cofferdam was installed with four marine crews,” he explained. “One crew worked upstream of the dam and the second worked downstream, with each utilizing a Manitowoc 888 crane on a 52 feet wide by 120 feet long crane barge. Two additional crews worked a night shift to ensure the cells were installed during favorable river conditions since high water and flow are customary on the Ohio River in the late fall and winter months. Cells were backfilled using sand delivered by barge and a Manitowoc 4100 equipped with a four cubic yard clam bucket.” All crews were serviced with an 800 hp pushboat. Hartz added that the crews, which were supervised by General Superintendent DK Carpenter, had to coordinate large equipment with large ongoing deliveries in a small space quickly to meet the expected schedule milestones. see PLANT page 96

RESPECTFULLY DISREGARDS CONVENTIONAL EXCAVATOR WISDOM. Plenty of people make compact excavators. But none can say they engineered the first mini-excavator, zero tail swing excavator, swing-boom excavator and rubber-tracked excavator. At Yanmar, we simply can’t stop innovating. That’s why our nine excavators – seven with true zero tail swing – are each purpose-built to overcome the most challenging conditions, work with unparalleled power and conserve fuel. So, if you just want to play around on your jobsite, go get any old excavator. BUT IF YOU’D RATHER RULE YOUR JOBSITE, GET A YANMAR. RuleTheJobsite.com

Bobcat Invites Public to Events Including Factory Tours

A Bobcat Special Edition One-Millionth Loader sits atop a pole at the entrance to Gwinner, N.D., home to Bobcat Company’s primary production facility. BOBCAT from page 42

Gwinner, Bobcat factory tours, carnival-type festivities in the Gwinner Park and a “Bobcat square dance” loader performance by four brothers who have 130 years of combined service at Bobcat Company. The Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) also made the Gwinner event a stop on its “I Make America” nationwide tour, which advocates for pro-manufacturing policies to create more jobs in the United States and keep the economy competitive with other countries. Attendees over the age of 18 could enter to win a 2014 Harley-Davidson Road King featuring a custom “I Make America” paint job. “It was particularly special to host the ‘I Make America’ tour,” Goldsbury said. “Bobcat is a great manufacturing success story for so many reasons, from the generations that have been employed to the products they’ve produced. Thousands of Bobcat employees have given many global customers the tools they use to make a living.” Bobcat Company also helped Gwinner city officials dedicate three welcome signs at different entrances to town signifying “Home of one million Bobcat loaders.” The company celebrated the production of 500,000 load-

ers in 2001 and 750,000 units in conjunction with its 50th anniversary in 2008. The million loaders built by Bobcat represent the largest production of this equipment by any manufacturer globally. An “Unstoppable” Force To commemorate the year-long celebration, Bobcat developed the “Unstoppable” campaign, which recognizes the company’s rich history and heritage, yet illustrates its plans to continue to set the pace in the compact equipment markets it serves. The celebration started in January, as Bobcat Company launched a contest that ran through June, asking participants to answer the question, “How does Bobcat make you unstoppable?” The grand prize winner, who will receive a special edition one-millionth bobcat loader, will be named in September. Bobcat unveiled its special edition one-millionth

bobcat loaders at the ConExpo-Con/AGG trade show in Las Vegas in March. Bobcat Company social media channels — Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Flickr and YouTube — feature various elements of the celebration and Unstoppable content and promotions. Fans and followers can participate in merchandise giveaways and trivia contests, show pride by selecting a “pride badge,” share stories and read about how others are joining in the celebration. A special app enables customers to upload photos and apply a custom “one million strong” treatment. Several celebration-focused videos are available as well. “The ceremony in Gwinner is a great centerpiece to what we are doing to celebrate all year,” Goldsbury said. “But it doesn’t start or end with this. ‘Unstoppable’ is a theme that started in January, and we still have a lot of celebration time left in 2014 and beyond.” For more information, visit Bobcat.com/Million.

JCB Debuts Tier IV, Tier IVi JCB Ecomax Powered Backhoe Range Marking the 60th anniversary of the invention of the backhoe loader by Mr. JCB, the company that bears his initials now introduces the world’s most productive, efficient, powerful and comfortable backhoe loader available. JCB’s solution to Tier IV and Tier IV interim emissions legislation are on display as the expanded JCB backhoe loader range, with the introduction of the new entry level specification 3CX, powered by the JCB Ecomax engine make their debut. JCB, with its Ecomax engine, is the only leading equipment manufacturer in the world to have met the stringent Tier IVF (74 HP) and Tier IV interim (91 and 109 hp) emissions legislation without the use of diesel particulate filter (DPF) or after-treatment, according to the manufacturer. JCB has met the legislation through the use of in-cylinder technologies resulting in a cleaner, more efficient combustion process. This has eliminated the need for any external exhaust after-treatment meaning no diesel particulate filter (DPF) or additives such as Ad-Blue, significantly reducing operating costs. History of Innovation The JCB Ecomax builds on the success of the original Dieselmax engine and retains the same key characteristics such as high torque at low engine revs, robustness and reliability as well as low noise and vibration. It has been developed following a $126 million investment program and has undergone more than 110,000 hours of testing across a range of diverse applications, machines and environments. Customer Benefits As well as the obvious environmental benefit with the reduction in emissions, the JCB Ecomax engine also will offer customers improved torque throughout the rev range coupled with noticeably reduced fuel consumption and lower running and ownership costs. JCB Ecomax engines can run on standard engine oils, unlike engines with after treatment solutions, which require a more expensive heat resistant lube oil to function correctly resulting in lower serving costs. The no-after treatment approach also allows for a recalibration option that makes it possible for JCB dealers to recalibrate the Ecomax engine to a non emmissionized state, without any hardware changes. In effect, this recalibration takes the engine out of the EPA emissions tier system, and opens it up for export to non-legislated countries that only offer lower quality, higher sulfur content fuels. This maximizes the residual value of the machine for customers, without sacrificing the Ecomax advantages. With no DPF or other after-treatment solution required, this also means that the dimensions of the engine and its space claim on the machine are unchanged from Tier III. This removes the need for any increase in mainframe length or hood size maintaining the machines’ maneuverability and visibility. The JCB Ecomax engine range has been extended, both up and down in terms of power output, and will be fitted into machines spanning the 74 hp (Tier IVF) and 91 to 173 hp (Tier IVi) range, including JCB backhoe loaders, Loadall telescopic handlers, wheel loaders, the TM range of telescopic boom wheel loaders, JS excavators, rough terrain forklifts and skid steer loaders.

Backhoe Loader The introduction of the Tier IVF (74 hp) and Tier IVi (91 and 109 hp) solution sees an expansion of the JCB backhoe loader range, with the introduction of the new entry level specification 3CX-14. This new entry level 3CX is powered by the Tier IV Final compliant 74 hp JCB Ecomax engine, providing a 5 percent reduction in fuel usage, as well as the new dual synchro JCB SynchroShuttle transmission as standard giving the operator smoother and easier gear changes all while being a quieter transmission. The new 3CX retains the triple gear pump EcoDig hydraulic system, allowing the operator to drop the engine revs while operating the backhoe and still maintain the high flow rate needed for fast cycles times and productivity but using up to 16 percent less fuel than its competitors, added benefits of this system are lower engine noise and wear and tear to the engine. The cab height on the 3CX is 6 in. (15 cm) lower than that of the deluxe model 3CX Supers, without sacrificing the operator space. From there, the deluxe end of the range starts with the family of 3CX Supers, powered with the larger 91 hp and 109 hp Tier IVi compliant JCB Ecomax engine and coming standard with the JCB Powershift transmission along with the new 44 gpm (166 Lpm) variable flow hydraulic pump. These pumps are configured to perfectly match hydraulic flow and pressure to the demands placed on the system yielding up to 6 percent fuel efficiency improvement on top of improved efficiency already achieved by the Ecomax engine itself. The new variable flow pump also results in lower lever efforts, reduced noise levels and rapid control response for up to 30 percent faster cycle times, according to the manufacturer. Rounding out the top of the range are the four-wheel steer 4CX Supers, coming in at 109 hp, and also featuring the JCB Powershift transmission and the new 44 gpm variable flow hydraulic system. All of the new Ecomax engines offer increased, usable torque over their Tier III predecessors. The increased torque is low in the rev range, where it is needed for pushing into a pile with the loader end of the machine and where the hydraulic pumps are tuned to provide good digging power at a lower engine rpm with good torque backup for tough digging applications. All of these advantages come with sizeable fuel savings. The growth of the backhoe range also sees an expansion in the types of controls offered. All machines will have JCB’s classic controls (mechanical “wobble stick” style) to operate the backhoe as standard, while the 3CX Super and 4CX Super will see two additional control options. With JCB Easycontrol, the excavator is controlled via two seat mounted joysticks, giving the operator the same feel and feedback as the classic controls, but with the added benefits of low lever efforts and short throws. With the introduction of the Tier IVi Super range, JCB also has launched its new JCB Advanced Easycontrol, which offers many of the same features as JCB EasyControl, while incorporating the loader controls into the right hand seat controller, giving the operator a low lever effort and short throw servo loader control, as well as simplifying overall operation. A new in cab monitor is standard on all models, reporting fuel consumption and also allowing operator to bypass daily checks by automatically reporting any fluid levels that are below acceptable levels.

Michelin North America Agricultural Tires will expand its current backhoe product offering this year.

all-terrain backhoe radial tire. Planned for a November launch, it is designed for asphalt and other hard surface applications. “The Michelin BibLoad hard surface tire features radial construction, steel belts and reinforced casing for puncture resistance,” Crouch said. “It also has a non-directional tread design, which is widespread in Europe, but fairly new to the U.S., offering superior performance regardless of the tires’ rotational direction.” He added that this tire also has proven to be an excellent snow tire in Canada for these applications.

TLB840 Backhoe Loader Now Available in North America Powered by an electronic, Tier IV interim Perkins 1204E-E44TA engine and an optional 4-speed servo power synchro transmission with automatic shifting, the 94-hp (70 kW) Terex TLB840 backhoe loader is now available in North America. Engineered to excel in digging, reaching, lifting and loading applications, North American customers will notice the TLB840 boasts high torque, powerful performance, as well as strong climbing and digging capabilities, according to the manufacturer. The Tier IVi-compliant engine on the TLB840 is designed with EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) technology, which is well-suited for lower horsepower engines operating in high-duty applications. EGR engines incorporate diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) systems and sometimes diesel particulate filters (DPF) to reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) and particulate matter exhaust emissions. The new Perkins Stage III B/Tier IVi EGR engines, like the one in the Terex TLB840, include a DPF and allow auto-idle to be incorporated in machine. “The Perkins DPF has a 10,000-hour service life, so maintenance needs are reduced,” said Jon

Beckley, Terex global product manager of backhoe loaders. “This backhoe loader does not require diesel exhaust fluid, also known as AdBlue, or forced regeneration. Also, we have had a long heritage of strong global support with Perkins.” Also according to Beckley, “The Tier IVi TLB840 offers 14.6 to 36.9 foot-pound higher torque through the rev range than the previous model. This means it is more responsive on pick-up under load and handling while transporting materials.” The curved boom design on the TLB840 offers operators greater clearance to reach over obstacles and the ability to load closer into trucks for greater pro-

ductivity. With a dig depth of 14 ft. 9 in. (4.5 m) — extended to 18 ft. 1 in. (5.5 m) and a reach up of 18 ft. 9 in. (5.7 m) — extended 21 ft. 11 in. (6.7 m) — the TLB840 is designed with a slew system that provides high torque for easier backfilling and slewing uphill. For high-productivity trenching, this backhoe loader brags 7,958 lbf dipper tearout and 11,892 lbf bucket tearout forces. With a loading height of 11 ft. 3 in. (3.4

m), the Tier IVi Terex TLB840 can easily load high-sided trucks, and with a 10,485 lbf bucket breakout force, a loader lift capacity of 7,291 lbf and bucket capacity of 1.32 cu. yds. (1 cu m), this backhoe loader offers high-capacity production. With “return to dig” feature at the press of a button, the Tier IVi TLB840 reduces cycle times and provides quick loading capability. The hydro mechanical selfleveling feature on the TLB840 enables the operator to avoid spillage and allows for load retention at full height. The hydraulic unload button controls the loader’s lift speed, as well as boosts the machine’s pushing performance. For more information, visit www.terex.com/construction.

Hyundai’s H930C Backhoe to Reach North America in 2015 Hyundai’s H930C backhoe has an operating weight of 14,881 lbs (6,750 kg) and is powered by an 87 hp (65 kW) Tier II Perkins 1104C-44T engine.

Hyundai Construction Equipment Americas Inc.’s H930C backhoe is currently available to the Latin America market but will be released in North America towards the end of 2015. This versatile machine is practical for heavy duty jobs in various applications such as small trenching projects, site preparation and road and utility work, according to the manufacturer. Hyundai’s H930C backhoe has an operating weight of 14,881 lbs (6,750 kg) and is powered by an 87 hp (65 kW) Tier II Perkins 1104C-44T engine. The engine combines new combustion technology with internal exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), long oil change interval (600 hr) and an air grid heater as a cold start aid. The H930C boasts a loader bucket capacity of 28.3 cu. ft. (0.8 cu m), a trenching bucket capacity of 6 cu. ft. (0.2 cu m) and a backhoe dig depth of 14 ft. 3 in. (4.3 m). The H930C’s loader boom is integrally welded with a large diameter tube, dual lift and tilt cylinders for maximum strength and power. A strong and rigid loader frame allows for greater lift capacity, improved line

of site and overall visibility. The H930C’s four wheel drive system improves mobility and loader performance in ground conditions underfoot and can be activated on the go. The loader attachment is equipped with an automatic return to dig function, designed to reduce loading cycle times. The return to dig function returns the loader to the dig position when the operator pulls the lever. The H930C’s backhoe boom also has a robust design, perfect for heavy duty applications. The boom allows for enhanced visibility into the trench when the operator is digging around buried obstructions such as water mains, sewer pipes and utility lines. Pilot controls offer the operator improved precision when excavating. An optional extendable dipper significantly increases the machine’s versatility. Heavy duty front and rear axles are designed to withstand the most demanding applications. Outboard, planetary gears improve serviceability while multi wet disc brakes eliminate possible external contamination. The parking brake can easily be acti-

vated from within the cab by the push of an electric switch. Hyundai’s H930C backhoe is available with optional hydraulic performance features such as a load sensing hydraulic system, which matches the engine power to the appropriate hydraulic flow based on the load demand required. An adjustable flow control system option allows the operator to divert any unused hydraulic fluid from the second pump to the hydraulic reservoir. Lastly, a control pattern selection option allows operators to change from ISO to SAE control patterns simply by pressing a button. Operators can look forward to a large, spacious cab in the H930C backhoe, which was designed for maximum comfort, safety and low noise. Standard features include a tilting, adjustable steering column, hingedtype side windows for excellent ventilation, conveniently located gauges, switches and levers for quick and easy use and a suspension seat with full adjustment for improved operator ride. One piece rounded front glass and large windows around the cab provide the operator with a full 360 degree range of

visibility. An AM/FM radio with MP3 input also contributes to a pleasant working environment. An optional climate control system allows for full heating and defrosting and an optional air conditioning system provides the operator with optimum temperature regardless of the weather. Service is hassle-free on the H930C backhoe with convenient access to key machine components. A tilt-up hood makes the engine compartment easily accessible. The one-piece hood tilts away for easy ground line access to all critical service and grease points for reduced maintenance time and operator safety. The hydraulic oil sight gauge is installed on the side of the hydraulic tank for quick inspection from ground level. An integrated safety bar and locking pin are an integral part of the loader arm and guarantee operator safety when servicing. For more information, call 877/509-2254 or visit www.hceamericas.com.

Hoffman Equipment Adapts to Ever-Changing Markets WATTERS from page 30

was responsible for and grew the export side of the business, which saved the company’s bacon when cranes and rigging died for them. “We reached out into the distribution business not because we wanted to sell machines into New Jersey and New York,” said Tim Watters, “but because we wanted to have access to machines that we could export.” They rode on that ticket till the collapse of the U.S. dollar in the 1980s, which also took their export business down with it; but the chameleon company simply donned a new focus on domestic distribution. Even so, Hoffman’s roots were not abandoned, and export still remains a unique and profitable niche for the company today, adding about 15 percent annually to the bottom line. Watters bought Hoffman Equipment in 2002, and took the dealership through multiple waves of OEM relationships, including the five major lines he represents today. And the rest, as they say, is history.

Business Conditions The market environment for Hoffman Equipment was favorable in 2013, and Watters exclaims it was the company’s “best year ever,” exceeding even 2007 results. Healthy construction in New York and New Jersey contributed to their record numbers, but the underlying reason, he said, was, “our export business had a phenomenal year.” It’s not a feat he expects to repeat in 2014, but Watters says traditional, domestic construction activity leads him to expect moderate growth in the region. Business mood is upbeat, he said, and a number of significant infrastructure projects will be getting underway and should drive the local economy for the coming year. They include the Tappan Zee Bridge, the largest infrastructure project in the country for the next three or four years; the Goethals Bridge from New Jersey into New York; the Bayonne Bridge that will be lifted to provide Panamax vessels access to the Port of New York and the Port of Elizabeth; and also the Kosciuszko Bridge that is part of the

Brooklyn-Queens expressway. His big-picture outlook for the U.S. isn’t quite as cheerful, though, and he predicts a mostly flat year. “If you don’t have the exposure to the shale energy market your business is only so-so,” he said, “but the housing market will ultimately provide some not-insignificant growth to our industry, finally.” Although Watters is, frankly, a little worn out from hearing complaints about Washington, he admits that two of his company’s biggest potential threats in 2014 will stem from federal policymaking: (1) Obamacare, which will certainly make their costs go up, and (2) the risk of the Highway Trust Fund running dry. “We can beat the drum and make noise about it,” he said, “but worrying about it isn’t going to solve anything.” (This story was reprinted with permission from Construction Equipment Distribution Magazine, February 2014 issue.)

Last November, Tim Watters and his wife Patty vacationed in Mexico, but not at the beach — they scaled the country’s highest mountain, Pico de Orizaba.

Topcon’s Two New Mobile Apps Equipment Leasing, Finance Expand Job Site Connectivity

A Qualitative Assessment...

Confidence Remains Steady The Equipment Leasing & Finance Foundation (the Foundation) released the July 2014 Monthly Confidence Index for the Equipment Finance Industry (MCI-EFI) July 22. Designed to collect leadership data, the index reports a qualitative assessment of both the prevailing business conditions and expectations for the future as reported by key executives from the $827 billion equipment finance sector. Overall, confidence in the equipment finance market is 61.4, unchanged from the June MCI-EFI. When asked about the outlook for the future, MCI-EFI survey respondent Adam D. Warner, president, Key Equipment Finance and chairman of the Equipment Leasing and Finance Association (ELFA), said, “I don't believe that the dramatic contraction of the U.S. economy in Q1 should be blamed on winter weather. There are underlying concerns by businesses and consumers that real unemployment has been too high for too long and not enough of the federal incentives are around job creation. Additionally, the federal government’s inability to collaborate on growth initiatives is having a lasting toll on confidence.” July 2014 Survey Results The overall MCI-EFI is 61.4, unchanged from the June index. • When asked to assess their business conditions over the next four months, 28.6 percent of executives responding said they believe business conditions will improve over the next four months, up from 23.5 percent in June. 68.6 percent of respondents believe business conditions will remain the same over the next four months, down from 70.6 percent in June. 2.9 percent believe business conditions will worsen, down from 5.9 percent who believed so the previous month. • 25.7 percent of survey respondents believe demand for leases and loans to fund capital expenditures (capex) will increase over the next four months, up from 17.6 percent in June. 68.6 percent believe demand will “remain the same” during the same four-month time period, down from 79.4 percent the previous month. 5.7 percent believe demand will decline, up from 2.9

Topcon Positioning Group has added two mobile applications — Topcon Tierra and Sitelink3D mobile apps are designed to offer on-the-go remote connections to equipment and job sites. The Topcon Tierra mobile app lets customers login with their existing passwords and track their equipment fleets from an iPhone or iPad. “The Topcon Tierra app allows users to easily check on their fleets, fences, productivity reports and get alerts any time, anywhere,” said Kris Maas, construction products marketing manager.

Colorado Company Finds Solutions With Bagela Recycler M. Leeder Construction’s recycle yard.

Stockpiled used asphalt is fed to the Bagela recycler. Setting the Bagela on an elevated pad allows it to dump the recycled product directly into asphalt trucks and trailers below.

M. Leeder Construction wanted to be able to produce hot asphalt for pothole work during the winter. Cold patch, which had been used for repairing holes in the winter once the asphalt plants close is expensive, not particularly reliable, and has to be dug out and replaced with hot patch once spring returns and the asphalt plants open. Leeder also needed a reliable source of asphalt in early spring when asphalt plants do not run every day depending on the temperature. A Bagela BA 10000 asphalt recycler solved both issues. “In the spring and at times in the fall our capability of doing work often relies on the weather and whether or not the asphalt plants are open. With the help of the Bagela, this year we were able to produce 400 tons of hot asphalt during periods when the plants were closed. The Bagela produces a very acceptable 5/8 mix that we use for pothole repair and a finished course mix that we use on our paving projects,” said Matt Leeder, president and founder of M. Leeder Construction. Located in Durango, Colo., which is in the southwest

corner of Colorado not far from Albuquerque, N.M., M. Leeder Construction’s primary focus is on asphalt paving and asphalt maintenance. Over the last few years the company has moved heavily in the direction of recycling asphalt and using the recycled product, thus dramatically decreasing their costs and producing savings for their customers. “Last year we won the bid on a significant sized gas line replacement project in the city of Durango. The asphalt

plants closed early and we were able to produce 200 tons of patch material right through the heart of the winter to get the project completed. “As we have grown into the asphalt recycling business we developed a permanent site that allows other contractors to bring the asphalt that they have torn up or milled at other projects and dump it at our yard. We have set up the Bagela on an elevated pad, which allows it to dump the recycled product directly into asphalt trucks and trailers below. We also accept from area contractors waste concrete that we process into a ¾ inch aggregate, which we use as a base on new driveway and parking lot projects. We also accept dirt from excavation projects that we process and mix with manure and sell as a fertilized top soil.” A lot of the company’s work is utility work that would typically involve digging up and replacing sewer, water and utility lines within a city or village. When these utilities run underneath streets Leeder uses an “asphalt zipper” (a small portable milling machine) to dig up the surface asphalt, see BAGELA page 88

W730A’s Hopper Capacity Keeps Material Flowing Weiler’s W730A road widener has a large hopper capacity and high-production conveyor to keep material flowing. “This machine sets the bar for production in a high-volume application,” said Ben Sherod, Weiler territory manager. The W730A features a hopper capacity of 3.5 cu. yds. (2.7 cu m). It covers ground quickly and is capable of working at speeds of 350 ft. per minute (106 m per minute) and widths of 14 ft. (4.3 m). The W730A can work 12 in. (30.5 cm) above or below grade. The Cat C6.6 engine, with 174 hp (130 kW), provides plenty of power to keep the road widener moving smoothly and steadily. A high-speed friction drive conveyor and its 30 in. (76 cm) width also are essential to the high volume of material placed by the W730A. Applications include placement of base materials, lane additions, shoulder paving/maintenance, trench filling, service roads and bike paths/lanes. The W730A provides high production while retaining the proven performance of smaller Weiler road widener models. • The ability to place, in a single pass, material that previously took two or three passes. • Handling is accomplished in “one touch.” A haul truck deposits material in the hopper, and the conveyor discharges it through a side chute. • A strike-off tool levels the material and grading is completed as the widener makes its pass. • The ability to work above or below grade, and to hold exact grade/slope specifications. “Our series of road wideners has been popular in the industry,” Sherod said. “They reduce waste, enable contractors to place more material in less time, and help crews to precisely place a wide variety of aggregate and asphalt materials. The strike-off tool levels the material — eliminating the need for grading.” “The W730 provides those same benefits, but with an ability to place a higher volume of material more quickly.” The Latest Improvements As the most recent addition to the Weiler road widener lineup, the W730A includes several enhancements from the previous W730: • A hydraulic front dump hopper that enables simplified loading and unloading from increased clearance, and an ability to match trucks. • Updated control configuration for better

visibility and simplified operation • Electronic controller for diagnostics and calibrations • Rotary potentiometer for more belt speed precision • Bi-directional ground-drive joystick • A pause feature that enables stopping and restarting without having to reset working speeds • Repositioning of the operator station for increased visibility of the hopper and tooling • Lowering of the engine to improve rear visibility • Enabling the control panel to slide an additional 8 in. (20.3 cm) on each side.

The W730A features a hopper capacity of 3.5 cu. yds. (2.7 cu m). It covers ground quickly and is capable of working at speeds of 350 ft. per minute (106 m per minute) and widths of 14 ft. (4.3 m).

Easy to Use All Weiler road wideners are engineered for convenience of operators, cleanup crews and service personnel. The self-cleaning head, tail and return pulleys minimize material buildup. Service and maintenance check points easily accessed, and multiple doors help technicians quickly reach components. Operators find the machines easy to control. Discharge direction can be adjusted with the flip of a switch, while conveyor speed is controlled from the operator’s station with a rotary potentiometer. Standard rear steer gives the W730A a tight inside turning radius of 14 ft. (4 m). Even trucking can be simplified with hydraulically extendable, oscillating front push rollers. The rollers match varying truck configurations, facilitating smooth truck transitions. The hydraulic front dump hopper adjusts to varying truck heights. “We wanted to make a machine that had maximum productivity, but was still easy to operate,” Sherod said. “Owners will quickly see that we’ve accomplished that with the W730A.” For more information, visit weilerproducts.com.

GRW 280i Series Offers Tier IV Tech The GRW 280i series of pneumatic compactors from Hamm incorporates Tier IV-interim emissions technology in a variety of weights for every application. The new GRW 280i pneumatic or rubber-tired roller was introduced at Bauma 2013. The GRW 280i updates the popular predecessor with subtle design changes and new engines complying with EPA Tier IVi.emissions controls. While each model can be acquired in its own weight, the revised ballast compartment allows users to vary the operating weight even more easily and flexibly than before, according to the manufacturer. New technical details include prefitting for its high-speed tire inflation system A standard oil service valve for lossless oil change ensures improved environmental protection. Hamm’s GRW 280i rubber-tired roller platform offers enhanced compacting quality, plenty of driving comfort, good visibility conditions, and the highest of safety standards, according to the manufacturer. Viewing channels in the frame structure offer a view of the edges and the tires of the outer wheels and a novel suspension of the front wheels allows for an uninterrupted view towards the front. The new GRW 280i’s operator’s platform rests in a versatile position, on a newly designed, asymmetrical frame. Innovations with respect to ballasting, drive concept and operating philosophy are not visible from the exterior, but their effects are evident as they make compacting better and more convenient. A single driver’s seat — which optionally can be moved and pivoted at the side towards the machine’s outer edges and along with the console — has replaced two seats, two steering wheels and two control consoles in older models, which could restrict freedom of movement. Operation and display elements are positioned on the console, and thus always are in the driver’s field of vision. Also, the speed is no longer controlled by an accelerator pedal in the foot space; in the GRW series it’s controlled by joysticks, which signifies a considerable boost in convenience for the driver. In total, this operating concept corresponds to that of a tandem roller. Thus, cost-effectiveness is increased because in the future, operators can switch flexibly between roller types without any adaptation time. Higher Speeds for Transport, Compaction A hydrostatic rear-axle drive for the GRW 280i allows for higher speeds during transport and compaction. To match it, the newly conceived steered axle at the front with disk brakes — which is standard on all models 20-ton (18 t) and over — ensures the necessary braking force and thus considerable safety when braking suddenly, even with maximum load. In total, sensitive control of the rear axle and an extraordinarily good view of the site and the wheels’ edges enable high compaction quality. The operator’s platform — with enveloping ROPS — is located in front of the center of the machine, while the Deutz 114-hp, Tier IVi-compliant engine is situated in the rear of the machine. This ensures a view of all relevant points. The view of the area directly in front of the front axle also is unobstructed. There, hydraulic cylinders for level compensation of the front suspension used to protrude out of the frame into the driver’s field of vision. They have been replaced with two swing arms between the front pairs of wheels, which require very little space and are not visible to the driver. The track offset between the front and rear wheelsets is

one of the basic features of pneumatic rollers. Hamm utilized this fact in the design of the new GRW and designed the machine frame in symmetry with the wheelsets. This intelligent design offers one crucial advantage because, for the first time ever, the driver can see the wheels on all outer sides. Moreover, viewing channels in the frame structure offer a view of the tires of the outer wheels. Flexible Weight Loading The new GRW 280i rubber-tired roller is being launched in the market with various basic weight ratings. The machines can accommodate different amounts of ballast depending on the basic weight. The outer dimensions are identical for all variants. Rubber-tired rollers need to be able to have their weight modified swiftly and easily. To this end the GRW 280i offers large ballast spaces between the wheelsets, and a serrated frame that is open in the downward direction. It can be filled with steel or concrete using a forklift truck. And regardless of how much ballast a GRW 280i carries, due to the intelligent ballasting system, the distribution of weight to the front and rear axles always remains constant. The generously dimensioned brake system ensures the higher-than-average safety standard during driving. When the machine is idle, the access steps to the cab afford additional safety. They are integrated in the outer contour and can be folded out. Thus, they offer convenient and safe access to the maintenance platform next to the engine. In this position, they lie on the outer contour, but constitute a visual interference contour. As a result, after completing maintenance work, the operator is reminded to swivel the access steps back into position. At the same time, the maintenance accesses, which would otherwise have to be carried along separately, are eliminated. Hamm also has made provisions for efficient maintenance, as all maintenance points are on the engine’s right-hand side. No matter how much the version of the GRW 280i weighs, its machine height is always under 10 ft. (3 m). This not only simplifies transport on a low-bed trailer, but also working under bridges, protrusions or other overhangs. For more information, visit www.wirtgenamerica.com.

At the Customer’s Convenience...

Bergkamp Announces New Paver Inspection Program The Bergkamp Inc. Inspection, Maintenance & Upgrade Program is designed to keep customers’ slurry seal and micro surfacing pavers running at peak performance, so crews can minimize downtime and maintain the highest productivity. Its factory trained technicians can inspect pavers at a customer’s shop, the job site or Bergkamp’s service shop and perform a comprehensive diagnosis that clearly identifies problem areas and/or wear items that need attention. In addition, factory technicians can identify any upgrades available so customers can take advantage of the company’s latest product advancements. Customers can then use the inspection report information to conduct the maintenance and repairs themselves or have Bergkamp’s dedicated team complete the work for them — to factory specifications and with original factory-grade parts. Depending on the maintenance, repairs and updates required, the

company can perform the work at the customers’ location or at Bergkamp’s headquarters in Salina, Kan. “We continually strive to deliver added value to our customers to help them reduce their paving costs,” said Rob Pickrell, customer business unit operations manager at Bergkamp. “With proper maintenance and service, you can easily achieve maximum paver performance and increase the life span of your paver.” The Bergkamp Inspection, Maintenance & Upgrade Program provides a wide range of services — from helping contractors identify small maintenance issues with their pavers to conducting a full remanufacture of a unit. For more information, call 785/825-1375 or visit www.bergkampinc.com. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

which is collected and either stockpiled on site or taken back to its recycle yard. Because of the Bagela’s mobility the company can bring the Bagela to the project and recycle the millings on site. This not only saves in the cost of asphalt material, but it also eliminates a lot of material hauling, Leeder said. The company was founded in 1985 as a small owner/operator business doing asphalt maintenance primarily sealcoat work and some asphalt patching. Today, it has grown to 12 full-time employees and up to 17 employees during the peak season. “This year, with the help of the Bagela, we were able to operate year around and had our material costs drop by 25 percent. Forty percent of the product that we laid in 2013 was recycled asphalt versus virgin asphalt. The growth has been good and we are currently looking into expanding our operation. “When we first purchased the Bagela we experienced about a three month learning curve. We had to test compaction rates and

learn what temperatures the Bagela had to operate with specific materials for maximum efficiency. Today we are making a very high quality product from a machine that only requires a single operator. “We are very happy with the Bagela’s production rates. We can currently generate up to 10 tons of material per hour. We are enjoying the flexibility of being able to reduce and have a ready supply of product when we need it and not being at the mercy of the asphalt plants. There is nothing that prevents us from paving into the night when need be. The economic impact on our company was immediate. Our overall profitability increased by 12 percent. The Bagela was critical to us being able to maintain profitability during the economic downturn.” For more information on Bagela, visit www.bagelausa.com. For more information on M.

Caterpillar Lands Milestone MarkWest Energy Order MarkWest Energy Partners L.P. has ordered more than 70 Cat G3600 engines, Caterpillar Oil & Gas’s flagship series for gas compression applications. A combination of G3608 engines rated at 2,370 hp and G3612 engines rated at 3,550 hp will be used to support natural gas gathering operations across the Utica Shale and Marcellus Shale formations. Initial shipments of the gas compression package systems are scheduled to begin in early 2014 with deliveries scheduled throughout the year. AG Equipment, based in Broken Arrow, Okla., has been awarded a contract for initial packaging of this equipment. AG Equipment along with Cat dealer Warren CAT led Caterpillar’s efforts on the sale. Cat dealers Cleveland Brothers and Ohio CAT are coordinating after sale support services. “This order is a significant achievement for Caterpillar in the gas compression industry,” Dave Dunlevy, Caterpillar Oil & Gas general manager stated. “It is one of our largest orders of G3600s for gas compression and we are appreciative of MarkWest for their continued support of our industryleading power solutions and unparalleled

service provided by the Cat dealer network.” “We are pleased to work with Caterpillar Oil & Gas to expand our gathering and compression footprint in the northeast,” stated Frank Semple, chairman, president and chief executive officer at MarkWest. “The installment of quality Caterpillar technology will be critical to support the continued development of producers’ rich-gas acreage in the heart of two of America’s most prolific shale plays.” Manufactured in Lafayette, Ind., Cat G3600 engines for gas compression have logged 140 million operating hours around the world. Built using the Cat diesel platform, the gas-fueled G3600 units stand up to demanding natural gas applications, delivering 1,775 to 4,735 hp, with virtually no unscheduled downtime. In addition to the proven power ratings, the G3600 engine’s efficiency and technology result in longer overhaul intervals and reduced maintenance.

Phase Three Poses Challenge Adding Rock Anchors PLANT from page 50

“Ruhlin crews have installed sheet pile cofferdams in the past,” he said, “however not this large in a short time.” To ensure the integrity of the dam, inspections are conducted daily. When the dam is removed (the third phase of the project) the cells will be removed using APE vibratory hammers. The cells will be reused, according to Hartz. Once the dam was installed, 60 ft. (18 m) of rock had to be removed to create the site to house the two Kaplan turbines. The excavation, performed by Ruhlin, was completed with Multiple Caterpillar 349 excavators and seven 35-ton (32 t) articulated trucks. However, the rock base posed a problem. “This was a challenge because we had to [add] some high capacity rock anchors as a result of the geotechnical conditions — the

quality of the rock was less then anticipated,” said Hartz. The powerhouse construction is proceeding on schedule. “It’s a complicated job,” said Hartz, “but good pre-planning is helping and we are self-performing much of the work. Our benchmarks are being met.” Several specialized subcontractors are helping out, including: Skanska for the mechanical work, and Tri-State Concrete Pumping for the 63 meter pump that is being used on site. To coordinate the work, regular meetings are held to determine access to the site in terms of crews and equipment. The site provides sufficient space for Ruhlin and the subcontractors to establish temporary offices and parking for their vehicles, equipment and materials. Cranes are playing a key role in the current construction and this includes two tower cranes supplied by ALL Crane in Richfuield, Ohio, and those owned by Ruhlin — a 348 Link-Belt 400-ton (362 t)

“It’s a complicated job, but good pre-planning is helping and we are self-performing much of the work. Our benchmarks are being met.” Doug Hartz The Ruhlin Company

crawler crane, a Manitowoc 880 230-ton (209 t) crawler crane and several hydraulic cranes — Grove RT760Es. The Link-Belt crane will be used to lift and install the turbines, an operation scheduled for late spring. The weather has favored the construction thus far and the only difficulties encountered are typical conditions posed by the winter, especially for the poring of concrete, according to Hartz. For this

job Ruhlin is manufacturing all of its concrete on site via a portable batch plant and it is transported via its various Agitator trucks. The design calls for concrete to be poured in at a temperature of 55F. “This is not easy on hot summer days and our drums are insulated with spray foam,” said Hartz. The batch plant consists of a Stevens batcher, a Secoma 1200 mixer and series of web belts and cooling equipment to chill the

water and keep the aggregate cool. Aaron Rocher is serving as the batch plant superintendent. The plant is powered by a generator. When completed, the 70,000 cu. yd. (53,519 cu m) of concrete will have been pored Carpenter is looking after the equipment and he has two master mechanics assisting him — Tom Zudell (vehicles and equipment) and Bernie Leach (the batch plant). A repair shop has been set up, as well as supply depots for spare parts, oils and fuel. Additional mechanics, when required, are dispatched from Ruhlin’s main shop in Sharon Center (2 and a half hours away). This also applies to additional vehicle and equipment support. Hartz said that goodwill and dedication from the various crews and inspection personnel are keeping the work on track.

Other states adding a high total of new construction jobs during the past year included California (29,800 jobs, 4.7 percent), Texas (19,100 jobs, 3.1 percent), Pennsylvania (13,000 jobs, 5.8 percent) and Minnesota. Twelve states shed construction jobs during the past twelve months, with New Jersey losing the highest percent and total, (minus 8.1 percent, minus 11,200 jobs). Other states that lost a high percentage of jobs include Alaska (minus 5.5 percent, minus 900 jobs), New Hampshire (minus 4.4 percent, minus 1,000 jobs) and New Mexico (minus 3.9 percent, minus 1,600 jobs). Besides New Jersey,

other states that lost the most construction jobs between June 2013 and June 2014 included Arizona (minus 4,500 jobs, minus 3.6 percent), Alabama (minus 2,700 jobs, minus 3.4 percent) and Kentucky (minus 2,400 jobs, minus 3.6 percent). Twenty-one states and D.C. added construction jobs between May and June. Florida (8,800 jobs, 2.2 percent) added the most jobs, followed by Illinois (3,500 jobs, 1.8 percent), Indiana (2,700 jobs, 2.2 percent) and Pennsylvania (2,700 jobs, 1.1 percent). South Dakota (4.3 percent, 900 jobs) had the highest percentage increase for the month, followed by Florida, Indiana and Montana (2.2 percent, 500 jobs).

Twenty-seven states lost construction jobs for the month, while construction employment was unchanged in Arizona and New Mexico. California (minus 9,500 jobs, minus 1.4 percent) lost the most construction jobs between May and June. Other states experiencing large monthly declines in total construction employment included New York (minus 3,700 jobs, minus 1.1 percent), Oregon (minus 3,600 jobs, minus 4.5 percent) and Texas (minus 3,400 jobs, minus 0.5 percent). Alaska (minus 7.7 percent, minus 1,300 jobs) experienced the highest monthly percentage decline, followed by Oregon, Rhode Island (minus 2.9 percent, minus 500 jobs) and Hawaii (minus 2.2 per-

cent, minus 700 jobs). Association officials noted that the number of states adding new construction jobs for the month declined compared to the prior month. Uncertainty around the future state of federal infrastructure funding prompted some construction firms to put expansion plans on hold, officials suggested. They urged the Senate to enact a House-passed bill that keeps federal transportation funding at current levels through May of next year and act on unfinished appropriations bills to fund other infrastructure measures. “It is hard for firms to grow when they don’t know how much work will be available in just a few weeks,” said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association’s chief executive officer. He added that a series of measures designed to make it easier for states to attract funding for infrastructure that the president announced should help boost construction employment.

JLG Launches World’s Largest Self-Propelled Boom Lift JLG Industries Inc. launched the world’s largest self-propelled boom lift — the 1850SJ Ultra boom — with nearly three million cu. ft. (84,950 cu m) of reachable space. Delivering 19 stories of working height, this latest innovation in the JLG line of Ultra Series boom lifts reaches more applications at unprecedented heights, moving aerial work platforms into applications previously reserved for truck-mounted booms and allowing operators to work more effectively and productively on the job site, according to the manufacturer. The JLG 1850SJ offers a maximum capacity of 1,000 lbs. (453.6 kg), allowing operators to move more tools and materials to the elevated work site. Productivity is further enhanced with faster cycle speeds, enabling the boom to extend from ground to full height in less than five minutes and operators to spend more time working and less time positioning the lift. Moreover, the 1850SJ includes a telescopic jib that extends and retracts to provide additional reach, up-and-over capability and the ability to telescope into and around structures in a variety of applications, including steel erection; energy-related construction such as petrochemical, power generation and wind plants; stadium, convention center and theater construction; and entertainment and studio-related applications. In addition, an updated platform LCD display provides even more information to optimize service and operator productivity. A graphic display of the operator’s position in the work envelope aids in positioning, and the communication of service codes, engine status, fuel levels, and other messages assists the operator and service provider with operation, diagnosis and troubleshooting. “We are excited to introduce the world’s largest boom to the industry,” said Jeff Ford, JLG Industries global product director, aerial work platforms. “This one-of-a-kind machine represents the latest example of JLG’s long and well-documented history of innovation in boom lift design and manufacturing.” The JLG 1850SJ offers 1,000-lb. capacity, fast lift speeds and versatile telescopic jib. The lift further enhances productivity with a powerful turbo diesel engine that provides 99.8 hp to optimize drive and lift performance. In addition, standard four-wheel drive and four-wheel steer maximize job

site maneuverability. Operators also will appreciate the ease with which the lift can be moved from one job site to another, taking advantage of a design that does not require an oversized permit on highways — only a weight permit. Oversized permits can be expensive and take several days to obtain; they usually require an escort vehicle and place restrictions on which roads can be traveled upon and when. The machine design also features axles that extend or retract in less than one minute to quickly transition to or from the transport mode. Serviceability and operational benefits extend beyond the new LCD display to include operation and control layouts

similar to all other JLG booms, making training and operation of the lift easier. In addition, hoods open wide to provide easy access to key serviceable components. “From the larger work envelope and unprecedented access, to the fastest lift speeds, telescopic jib and LCD displays, the JLG 1850SJ boom can allow customers to work more effectively and productively on the job site,” Ford added. “It’s a true industry-leading innovation for the lift and access, construction, and maintenance industries.” For more information, visit www.jlg.com.

Litho Press Building...

Western Waterproof Completes Historic Renovation Job Western Waterproofing, a member company of Western Construction Group, recently completed the monumental task of restoring the deteriorated facade and exterior concrete of the historic Litho Press building in Indianapolis, Ind. A project that was originally projected to last just 3 to 4 months turned into a 6-month project requiring 8,800 man hours, 3,500 bags of cement bag mix material and thousands of pounds of steel and lumber when demolition uncovered more severe deterioration than originally anticipated. The building, located at 800 North Capitol, had been abandoned until a redevelopment project allowed for its complete restoration to feature 111 apartment units. The building is owned by The Whitsett Group and Ambrose Property Group. “The engineer called out for approximately 1,500 linear feet of shallow depth concrete repairs not exceeding 4 inches in depth. Once demolition began, we discovered severed columns 20 inches in diameter and beam deterioration ranging from 6 to 24 inches in depth,” said Western

Family-owned and operated for nearly 100 years, Western Construction Group is the nation’s largest specialty contractor in masonry, concrete and facade restoration, waterproofing and specialty roofing. Waterproofing Project Manager Travis DeJohn. “We knew then that the number of hours and amount of materials needed to complete the job was going to escalate quickly.” Western used a combination of scissor lifts and articulating booms to complete the exterior building repairs. The entire exterior was first sounded and marked to help budget the escalating quantities. After sounding, Western removed the deteriorated concrete, replaced the steel reinforcements as needed, formed individual patches, and poured back cementitious bag mix material using 5-gal.

(19 L) buckets. With the scope of work drastically increasing, Western had to work overtime to try to stay within the tight timeline and budget constraints, and every detail had to be meticulously coordinated to allow several trades to complete their work simultaneously alongside one another. Western worked closely with the general contractor on the project, Indianapolis-based TWG Construction LLC, to coordinate the schedule and budget adjustments necessary to complete the project and maintain work quality.
