Residents and businesses straddling TH 36 in Maplewood, Minn., a northern suburb of St. Paul, have a mi. (1.6 km) long stretch of highway back in operation after a 75 day closure and a new interchange for their community of 38,000. After a fast paced, five month construction schedule, road crews built a diamond interchange to replace a busy, signalized, at-grade crossing of the highway by English

Street, a primary city arterial. Bridge crews raised a bridge to carry English Street traffic over the highway while road crews upgraded the highway below to freeway standards. By completing this interchange, MnDOT and the city of Maplewood have eliminated the last signalized intersection on TH 36 in Ramsey County. This upgrade is part of the Minnesota Department of Transportation’s (MnDOT’s) long term vision to make the highway a see INTERCHANGE page 32

ARTBA Forecasts Moderate ’14 Growth The American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) is forecasting that beyond a modest increase in construction costs nationwide, the overall U.S. transportation infrastructure construction market will grow five percent from $129 billion this year to $135.8 billion in 2014. ARTBA Chief Economist Alison Premo Black said the market would be led by expected double-digit growth in airport runway and terminal work, a six percent increase in bridge and tunnel construction, and five percent, or better, growth in total investment in waterways and ports, and heavy and light rail. Uncertainty about the level of federal support for state highway programs after next September, however, will continue to depress the road pavement market next year. Black forecasts the pavement market will grow to $54.4 billion in 2014, up 2.6 percent nationally.

This includes $42.7 billion in public and private investment in highways, roads and streets, and $11.6 billion in largely private investments in parking lots, driveways and related structures. The market, however, will be uneven nationwide, she said. ARTBA forecasts paving work to be up in 19 states, see TRANSPORTATION page 90

JCB Announces Next Stage in Engine Knock Off Terex Strategy Development, New Partnership Cranes May Prove Risky for Operators

The JCB Teletruk 35D 4x4 is the first JCB machine to be fitted with a JCB Diesel by Kohler engine.

JCB announced the next stage of its engine strategy with the news it has forged a partnership with a leading global manufacturer to produce engines for its compact equipment. JCB has gone from a new entrant in engine manufacturing to an innovative global producer with the first JCB engine rolling off the production line in the UK in November 2004. Since then production has been extended to JCB India’s HQ at Ballabgarh and to date more than 250,000 engines have been produced globally. JCB went into production this year with the JCB Ecomax engine, which meets U.S. Tier IV/EU Stage IIIB Interim emissions standards without the need for a diesel particulate filter (DPF) or external exhaust after treatment. Now JCB has announced it is adopting a range of fuel-efficient Tier IV Final/Stage IIIB engines from Kohler’s Global Power Group, for many of its compact machine lines. The watercooled Kohler Direct Injection (KDI) engines — which will be branded JCB Diesel by Kohler — meet the next stage of emissions regulations without the need for a DPF. The first JCB machine to be fitted with the new engine — a JCB 35D 4x4 Teletruk — was unveiled at the RWM waste management show at the Nation Event Centre (NEC) in Birmingham, UK. The telescopic forklift, saves customers time and money with its ability to reach forwards, enabling single side loading and accurate placement of loads, according to the manufacturer. JCB’s Director of Engine Programs

Alan Tolley said: “The decision to partner with Kohler to develop engines for JCB compact machines was driven by the synergy in the technologies used by JCB and Kohler to achieve stringent Tier IV Final emissions legislation. Kohler’s achievement of Tier IV Final without the need for a bulky DPF is fully in line with our own engine strategy and allows our designers maximum flexibility when it comes to meeting machine design and packaging requirements. These highly efficient engines will offer our customers improved performance and lower fuel consumption.” The European-built engines will be progressively introduced in JCB products, including the Teletruk TLT35D; 406 and 409 compact wheel loaders; 135, 155, 175, 190 and 205 skid steers; 150T, 190T and 205T compact track loaders; and select compact excavator models. High Torque Output The KDI engines use a common rail fuel injection system working at 2,000 bar pressures, cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), four valves per cylinder and a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) within the exhaust system. Fuel consumption is up to 15 percent better than a similar output engine equipped with lower injection pressures and a DPF. There are two 1.9-L three-cylinder engines, the KDI 1903M and the KDI 1903TCR, delivering 41 hp (31 kW) with 133Nm of torque and 56 hp (42 kW) with 225Nm of torque respectively. The 2.5-L, four-cylinder KDI

2504M and KDI 2504TCR deliver 48.8 hp (36.4 kW) with 170Nm and 74 hp (55.4 kW) with 300Nm. The engines meet all JCB standards, with 500-hour maintenance intervals available on all models. Strong, lowrpm torque characteristics will result in improved machine performance and added engine response, delivering improved productivity for JCB customers, according to the manufacturer. “Innovation is a common thread running through the design of this completely new family of engines by Kohler,” said Giuseppe Bava, chief executive officer of Kohler’s diesel engine business unit. "They feature highly advanced technology for clean combustion and limited emissions without the use of after-treatment systems. The KDI engine family is designed to be compact, yet providing best in class performance.” Tom Cromwell, president at Kohler Engines, added: “Kohler is extremely proud to be appointed as JCB’s engine supply partner for a wide range of construction equipment with the Kohler KDI engines. Reflecting the significant investment made by Kohler within diesel engine innovation and technology, these compact engines enable the machines to meet the stringent EPA Tier IV Final and EU Stage IIIB emission regulations without the use of a DPF, while delivering significant fuel savings for JCB customers. This aligns perfectly with JCB’s wider engine strategy.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Terex Cranes is tracking recent reports of counterfeit Terex crawler crane models originating from China. Similar to the incident reports of 2011, the Terex CC 2500-1 lattice boom crawler crane is the crane model of choice for the copycat manufacturers, according to the company. The units are assembled, branded and sold as used Terex cranes well under market value. Also, majority of the counterfeit crane models reported to Terex Cranes tend to be commonly painted red and use the manufacturer’s legacy Demag brand. The primary markets of concern in this most recent wave of crane pirating are the Asian countries of China, South Korea, Singapore, India and Pakistan. “We are aware of three different ‘designs’ of the CC 25001 crane on the market, and there are at least 9 or 10 fake cranes that have been sold, all originating from China,” said Klaus Meissner, director of product integrity of Terex Cranes. “This is a serious situation, and, not only because this infringes on our intellectual property but, more importantly, it poses a serious safety risk for our customers. The use of these inferior, counterfeit cranes can result in deadly consequences.” While made to look like Terex units, these pirated cranes are often assembled with a blend of older and newer technology and components that were not designed to work together. These counterfeit cranes frequently exhibit poor weld quality, inferior steel structures and improperly fitted tracks. Additionally, many of the safety components designed into a genuine Terex crane are missing. “Unfortunately going by serial number alone will not determine with certainty if the purchaser is buying a genuine Terex crane, as these plates can be fake as well,” added Meissner. “Many of the counterfeit cranes were purchased either without an onsite inspection or through an inspection conducted by an unqualified person.” Terex stressed the importance of conducting a thorough inspection of the used crane by a qualified individual prior to purchasing the machine, especially in the markets of concern. The safety of the company’s workers as well as individuals who happen to be in the area where the crane is operating depends on it. Terex has established a special e-mail address for customers to inquire about the authenticity of the Terex crane they have already purchased or are considering purchasing. Customers can e-mail terexcranes.brandcheck@terex.com with questions about a particular used crane model. The local sales teams (see http://www.terex.com/cranes/en/salesandsupport/Sales/index.htm) can be contacted as well. Meissner also offered one additional bit of advice to those entering the used crane market in Asian countries: “If the deal seems too good to be true, it probably is. Call us, and we will be happy to assist you in verifying that it is a genuine Terex crane.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Illinois Tollway Awards $40.1M for Six Volvo CE President New Construction, Design Contracts Resigns to Embark The Illinois Tollway Board of Directors recently approved six new construction contracts totaling $26 million for work on the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway (I-90) Rebuilding and Widening Project and five new design contracts totaling $14.1 million for work to maintain the existing Tollway system. More than $1 billion in construction and engineering contracts have been approved by the Tollway Board so far in 2013. “The Illinois Tollway knows how to keep drivers moving and businesses thriving,” said Gov. Pat Quinn. “These projects are part of nearly a billion dollars’ worth of contracts for the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway that are supporting tens of thousands of construction jobs throughout the region.” “Construction on our $2.2 billion I90 Rebuilding and Widening Project will be in full swing during the 2014 construction season, providing goodpaying jobs for men and women in the construction industry,” said Illinois Tollway Executive Director Kristi Lafleur. “We are working with hundreds of firms, large and small, from across the region to ensure we deliver these critical infrastructure improvements on schedule.” To date, nearly $945 million in contracts have been approved for work on I-90 including more than 315 unique businesses — with nearly 25 of those businesses working with the Tollway for the first time. Work to rebuild and widen I-90 from Rockford to Chicago began this year and is scheduled for completion by the end of 2016. The 11 new contracts approved

today include 29 subcontractors/subconsultants that are certified as disadvantaged, minority- and womenowned business enterprises (D/M/WBE). Commitments for D/M/WBE participation range from 6 to 43 percent per contract. Of the $40.1 million in awarded contracts, more than $9.7 million or more than 24 percent is committed to these firms. As of November, more than $1.6 billion in construction and engineering contracts has been awarded since the Move Illinois Program began in 2012. The Tollway estimates that nearly 475 construction and engineering firms are currently working on the Move Illinois Program, and the capital program has created or sustained as many as 8,910 jobs as of October 2013. Construction and utility contracts for Illinois Tollway projects are competitively bid under the rules of the Illinois Procurement Code. As part of the process, contractors’ bid submissions for construction work advertised by the Tollway are opened and read aloud during public bid opening meetings, which also are broadcast live on the Tollway’s Web site. Following an agency review process, the lowest, responsible bid is presented to the Illinois Tollway board of directors for review and approval. The Illinois Tollway provides detailed information about current Tollway construction contracts through the Construction Contract Tracker on the Tollway’s Web site at www.illinoistollway.com. Contractors and consultants also can access resources online to help them learn about how to do busi-

on New Opportunity

ness with the Tollway, including construction bid-letting schedules, professional service bulletins, manuals and construction bid calendars. These resources can be found in the “Doing Business” section of the Tollway’s Web site. Illinois Tollway engineering services contracts are awarded through the qualifications-based selection process (Illinois Public Act 87-673 (30 ILCS 535/1-535/80) Architectural, Engineering and Land Surveying Qualifications-Based Selection Act), which requires state agencies to select professional architects, engineers and surveyors on the basis of demonstrated competence and professional qualifications, rather than low bid. Staff from the department of engineering checks statements of interest to ensure that specified pre-qualifications and documentation are met and then reviews and scores statements of interest based on the selection criteria outlined for each project. Executives from the department of engineering then review the scoring, as well as each firm’s capacity, and identify the top recommended firms per project. To complete the review, a committee of Tollway professionals and independent engineering officials considers the top recommended firms and finalizes the top three firms in ranked order. The Tollway then seeks to negotiate a final contract price with the top-ranked firm. Pat Olney will remain in his present position until year (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

end.

Pat Olney, currently president of Volvo Construction Equipment, has decided to leave his position to take up a new challenge in a non-competing, large engineering company based in the United States. Olney will remain in his present position until year end. Olney joined Volvo CE in 1996 and has held a number of top management positions in finance, operations and general management before he became the president of Volvo CE in May 2011. “I have had a long and rewarding career with Volvo, and for that I will always be grateful. As such, this was not an easy decision. I have had the ambition to relocate at some point to North America and this opportunity was simply too good to pass up,” said Olney. “Pat has done an excellent job during his career with Volvo. I regret that he has decided to leave Volvo. At the same time I fully understand and respect his desire to move to North America for professional and personal reasons,” said Olof Persson, president and CEO of the Volvo Group.

FAE USA Hosts Open House in Ga.

AE USA Inc. held an open house and demo event at its North American headquarters in Flowery Branch, Ga., on Oct. 24. Dealers, regional representatives and customers came to see demonstrations of the newest products, including the new low flow forestry mulcher attachment and the PrimeTech PT-175 prime mover, which had just been introduced several weeks ago at ICUEE in Louisville, Ky. After the demo, attendees enjoyed dinner and beverages in the warehouse at the FAE USA facility. A few attendees took advantage of the opportunity to operate the new PrimeTech PT-175 prime mover including Timothy Keller of North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, Marion, N.C. Keller said he was quite impressed with the machine. “It had a fast recovery on the head,” Keller said “When you get into heavy brush it would recover quickly and pick up speed very fast once you bogged it down. It regulated itself and it was almost instant to get back to full speed when challenged. It’s faster than other similar products we’ve demoed and more maneuverable, with greater overall grinding ability and has a mulching head that quickly picks up speed.” Keller said he feels the PrimeTech machine is superior to others he’s tried.

Earle Alsobrook (L), territory manager in Alabama of FAE USA, explains some of the features of the FAE MTH soil stabilizer-stone crusher-asphalt crusher attachment to Ricky Niblett of APAC-Mid South, Birmingham, Ala.

“We’re new to this, so this is a market that we’re just now starting to look at. We’ve been testing other brands — from mulcher attachments to self-contained prime movers. So far, this is the best machine we’ve tried.” When asked what tasks the PT-175 model would be used for Keller said, “the terrain we work in requires a machine with maximum maneuverability and a smaller size so we can get to the job site more easily with the existing trailers and equipment that we have.” Serviceability and cost also factor into Keller’s thoughts of the machine. “Most of what we do is clear cuts of 3 to 4 inch. 10 to 15 year old stands that we want to knock back down and create early successional habitat for song birds and turkey brood habitat. We’re looking at wildlife management benefits from the machine instead of general land clearing for agricultural use or development.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG

Jeff Washington (L) and Hugh Swicord of AGF Machinery in Dothan, Ala., are welcomed to the event by hostesses Jayme and Liz.

Duane McGann of Specialized Forestry Solutions in Toccoa, Ga., demonstrates the newly released PrimeTech PT-175.

(L-R): Kenneth Clark of Snead Ag in Georgia and Alabama; Jack H. Moore and J.R. Moore, territory managers of FAE USA in Georgia and Florida; and Rick Lehner of American Material Handling in Watkinsville, Ga., watch both the PrimeTech PT-175 and Cat machine with FAE DML/SSL mulching head clear brush.

Allen Tennis (L), territory manager of FAE USA Midwest, and Wes Oller of The Victor L. Phillips Co., Brookline Station, Mo., talk about the UML SSL 150VT .

(L-R): Michael Tipton and Tim Keller of North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission; Giorgio Carera, president of FAE USA; and Andy Jones of ACT Construction Equipment, Charlotte, N.C., look over the PrimeTech PT-300 prime mover.

(L-R): John Hoffmann of AGCO in Duluth, Ga.; Jeff Satterwhite of Atlantic & Southern Equipment in Lake City, Ga.; Steve Gorsuch of AGCO in Duluth, Ga.; and Lee Smith of FAE USA discuss the features of the new PrimeTech PT-175 prime mover.

The low flow DML/SSL mulching head, one of the newest product introductions for this year, attached to a Cat 277B CTL, attracted attention from the dealers and customers in attendance.

STOPS FUEL GELLING NEW: The Universal Filter Preheater is designed for diesel fuel filter housings, for lube oil and hydraulic filters too (specify hyd. size). It wraps around the filter housing and reduces or eliminates the possibility of cold weather fuel gelling stopping the engine. It is easily removable and transferable and is wired for your choice of: direct current or alternating current or a convertible model combining dc and ac. A standard 12V or 24V Universal Fuel Filter Preheater is priced at $138. The â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;peel & stickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Universal Preheater attaches to the bottom or the side of the oil pan and converts the housing into a heat transfer element. It warms the oil without burning it making cold starts easy. It can be used on gearboxes, transmissions, transfer cases, water tanks and even bulk oil tanks. The Preheater plugs into any 120 or 240 volt outlet and consists of a thin silicone fiberglass pad containing a metal grid. To install it, you clean an area on the bottom or side of the oil pan and press the pad onto it, then use silicone to seal the edges of the pad and place a flexible ceramic insulation pad over it. It is available in several models depending on the lube capacity. A 50 watt unit sells for $42 and a 350 watt unit sells for $133.

MnDot’s ‘Limited Access Freeway’ VisionIncludes Upgrade

A Cat scraper operates on a section of the new highway lanes. This was a very active construction zone all summer long with dozens of pieces of heavy equipment on site. INTERCHANGE from page 1

“limited access freeway” to improve its safety and traffic flow, according to the MnDOT Web site for this project. At the same time, the city of Maplewood, which took the lead in this project, has a much safer crossing for English Street, running north and south across the highway and through the city. It is a primary access for the city’s residents and dozens of businesses that line both sides of this stretch of highway. MnDOT awarded the project to Forest Lake Contracting late last year at a bid cost of $17.3 million. Forest Lake Contracting, based in Forest Lake, Minn., is a local heavy construction and paving company with nearly 40 years of construction experience. TH 36 stretches for 20 mi. (36 km) between historic Stillwater, one of Minnesota’s first towns located on the St. Croix River bordering Wisconsin, and I 35W, running north out of Minneapolis. The stretch of TH 36 running through northern Ramsey County and a half a dozen suburban neighbors of St. Paul and Minneapolis covers 10 mi. (16 km) between I 35W to the border with Washington County. The highway ends 10 mi. farther to the east at the St. Croix River bordering Wisconsin. Despite the local inconvenience for area residents and businesses and a lengthy detour for motorists, MnDOT staff received very few complaints during the more than two month road closure. Closing the road was “something that had to be done. The nice thing about this closure is that the city of Maplewood, probably about a year and a half ago, began holding public meetings to describe the benefits of shutting the road down completely,” said Eric Rustad, MnDOT project engineer. Maplewood staff emphasized that “construction would be completed faster and in one season.” Maplewood residents and businesses also rode out a similar closure on the same highway just six years ago when its neighbor farther down the highway to the east, North St. Paul, completed a comparable project by closing the highway for most of that summer. That project most likely helped conditioned people to the time benefits of shutting down a road completely to shorten the construction schedule and open it back up earlier, Rustad said. Other parts of this project included replacing the old rail-

road bridge carrying a pedestrian/bicycle crossing with a smaller, recreational trail bridge, improving the local road system, adding more storm water pipe and retention ponds and building a noise barrier on one side of the new road while the other side received trees planted on top of a reinforced soil slope. On a separate contract several thousand ft. west of the interchange, bridge crews removed the original arch bridge carrying TH 36 traffic over a narrow lake channel that connects two of the city’s lakes with a slightly longer bridge to make room to build a pedestrian/bicycle trail below it. This new piece of trail will connect Maplewood’s lakes and park

land to a more expansive trail system running throughout St. Paul. The new English Street bridge is 132 ft. (40 m) long and 73 ft. (22 m) wide. It features two 12. ft (3.7 m) lanes and two, 12 ft. turn lanes for access to and from the ramps of the interchange. Four ft. (1.2 m) shoulders are located on each side of the bridge as well as an 8 ft. (2.4 m) sidewalk on the deck’s west side. The trail bridge is nearly 200 ft. (61 m) long with a 12 ft. wide walking and bicycle concrete deck. Decorative limestone and brick line the facades of both bridges with see INTERCHANGE page 80

ConExpo 1996 Spectacular Sights Expected at ConExpo-Con/Agg ’96 Largest Construction Show Ever in North America

This ConExpo article was published in Construction Equipment Guide (CEG) on March 20, 1996. This and other ConExpo articles to follow will be part of a continuing series that take a look back at ConExpos past through the reporting of CEG. We hope you enjoy these retros as much as we did searching for them deep in our archives. When the 1,140th exhibitor signed on for a 100-square-foot display, ConExpo-Con/Agg ’96 surpassed 1.2 million square feet of exhibit space and in the process became the largest North American construction show ever. “The 1.2 million net square feet was a dream a couple of years ago when the ConExpo-Con/Agg partnership was original envisioned,” said Dennis J. Slater, exposition director. “The enthusiasm our industries have shown toward the show has made that dream a reality.”

CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT GUIDE • www.constructionequipmentguide.com • December 7, 2013 • Page 37

Las Vegas, Nevada “The facilities at the Las Vegas Convention Center are stretched to capacity to accommodate our show,” said Kenneth R. Tobin, also exposition director. ConExpo-Con/Agg ’96 is the firstever joint show between the Construction Industry Manufacturers Association (CIMA), sponsor and producer of ConExpo, the huge international construction equipment exposition, and the International Concrete and Aggregates Group (ICAG), producer of Con/Agg, one of the premier concrete and aggregates shows in the United States. Since the inception of the ConExpo-Con/Agg partnership, only Comdex the computer industry exposition, has surpassed 1.2 million square feet of exhibits. The totals for number of exhibitors and exhibit space are record totals for either ConExpo or Con/Agg. In addition, ConExpo-Con/Agg ’96 will be the world’s largest event in 1996 for these industries. Because of its size, ConExpoCon/Agg ’96 has expanded to the newly created Landmark Exhibit Area located just across from the Las Vegas Convention Center on Paradise Boulevard. ConExpoCon/Agg ’96 will be the first exposition to make use of the new Landmark Exhibit Area, formerly the site of the famous Landmark Hotel which was demolished November 7, 1995. ConExpo-Con/Agg ’96 anticipates a total attendance of 80,00010,000 visitors, including over 20,000 international delegates. The show will open on March 20, 1996 at 9 a.m., and will continue through March 24, 1996, from 9-4 p.m. daily.

Phoenix Manufacturer Offers Solutions for Economic Crunch

A 4,000 gal. (15,142 L)hot dip galvanized tank with 10-year warranty.

This scraper was converted to a water wagon for the rental equipment industry.

Truck Works Inc. (TWI), a Phoenix, Ariz., based tanker manufacturer said that the current economic downturn is drastically affecting construction firms. Recent trending shows an increase in equipment maintenance and refurbishment efforts. Many of the current consorted efforts are being focused on re-instating equipment previously deemed “outdated,” according to the company. With the onset of stricter construction guidelines, higher fines and fewer jobs in the market, companies are benefiting from the new approach to the “old.” These concepts are far from new or original. Since the burst of the housing bubble in 2008, there is a revised approach to machinery procurement. One approach has been the sacrifice of equipment quality. The dust abatement market is saturated with water trucks that have a shelf life of approximately two years. While it may be appealing to reduce the initial purchase price, company downtime from faulty equipment and recyclable tanks often incur cost far exceeding the original investment, according to TWI. TWI currently is offering a hot dip galvanized water tank that is guaranteed to reduce repair and downtimes. This option increases

the warranty from two to 10 years at an increase in price of approximately 25 percent. Most firms are expected to see the return on their investment in just less than three years. Finally there is a water tank that will give the chassis life a run for its money. TWI also offers galvanized plumbing options and other tank options that have warranties ranging from five to 10 years. With the importance of staying in compliance with air quality standards regarding dust issues on the job site and the high cost on non-compliance citations, many contrac- A 1990 Ford up-fitted to continue its service for years to come. tors now understand the significance of having a working water truck and how it could impact the bottom line. Repair after failure can cost up to 600 percent more than if a unit or component is regularly maintained or replaced. TWI offers a free evaluation service where it will inspect your water truck at its facility. It will write up a full assessment noting “Areas of Concern,” lube the water pumping system and clean the vehicle at no charge to the customer.

Kenworth T880 Test Drive Contest Winners Earn Special Test Drive, Tour When Jon Kibler of Bowmansville, N.Y., and Bryce Pinnell of Morrisonville, Ill., heard they were winners in the recent Kenworth T880 Test Drive Contest, they especially looked forward to becoming among the first truck drivers to drive the new Kenworth T880. Introduced at the 2013 Mid-America Trucking Show, the T880 builds upon Kenworth’s 90-year heritage. The T880 is standard with the PACCAR MX-13 engine, which has ratings up to 500 hp (373 kW) and 1,850 lb.-ft. of torque and offers excellent fuel efficiency, high reliability and durability, lightweight design and low cost of ownership, according to the manufacturer. Kenworth hosted the two winners at events in both Columbus and Chillicothe, Ohio. In Columbus, the group attended the Kenworth Natural Gas Summit customer event and learned more about Kenworth’s extensive natural gas truck line-up. The following morning, they journeyed one hour south to Chillicothe, Ohio, home of Kenworth’s largest assembly plant. Upon their arrival, the group was greeted by plant manager Scott Blue, and then taken on an informative and action-packed 90minute tour. And then, it was time for Kibler and Pinnell to take the Kenworth T880 out for a test drive around the Chillicothe area. Kenworth had several T880s for the two winners to experience first-hand, including a regional T880 day cab with a PACCAR MX-13 455 hp (339 kW) engine and 13-speed Eaton manual transmission, and a T880 Ohio dump with PACCAR MX-13 485 hp (362 kW) engine and Eaton UltraShift Plus transmission. They also had a chance to climb into the latest Kenworth natural gas trucks there for the Kenworth customer event at the plant. Kibler, who has been a truck driver for one year, currently drives for Central Transport out of its terminal in Buffalo, N.Y. He also has worked for Stevens Transport, where he mostly drove a Kenworth T660. Kibler took a T880 dump truck out for a run and was impressed. “It’s very stable and easy to drive. Everything is right there in easy reach on the dash. I liked the air-ride seat,

Jon Kibler (L) and Bryce Pinnell pose with a 1923 Kenworth on display at Kenworth’s Chillicothe, Ohio, plant during their tour of the plant. The plant tour offered Kibler and Pinnell an opportunity to learn more about the history of the Kenworth Truck Co., which is celebrating its 90th anniversary this year. Kibler and Pinnell were both winners in the recent Kenworth T880 Test Drive Contest.

which was very comfortable. The T880 has excellent power with the PACCAR MX-13 engine. The engine and the cab were very noticeably quiet. I could actually hear the person next to me. I want one,” he added. Pinnell, who has been a truck driver for seven years, became an owneroperator in 2009 and operates his own company called E&M Transport. He has six trailers and now operates two trucks — a 2013 T660 72-in. AeroCab sleeper and a brand new T660 with 2014 86-in. Studio AeroCab, which he picked up in Chillicothe after completion of his T880 test drives. “The T880 is really comfortable and the PACCAR MX13 engine had good pick-up and go. I liked the overall visibility through the windshield and over the hood. The turning radius was great and I could make sharp, tight turns,”

said Pinnell. “The controls on the dash were in good position, and I could reach everything without having to stretch. And both the T880s I drove were real quiet.” Before they parted company, the winners and their guests each received a special Kenworth backpack stuffed with Kenworth merchandise, including a lightweight jacket, fleece blanket, T880 cap, T880 cowhide/denim work gloves and travel tumbler mug. More than 250 entries were received in the contest, which was for entrants 21 years and older with a valid commercial driver’s license. For more information, visit www.kenworth.com.

Aggcorp, Feikert Team Up to Install Matec Filter Press Recently, when AGGCORP took on the Matec Machinery Technology line, a maker of filter presses, the company immediately thought of Feikert Sand & Gravel Inc. Aggcorp’s President Sean McIvor and representative Rob Armbruster have been calling on Lynn Feikert of Feikert Sand & Gravel Inc. for many years. Both McIvor and Armbruster became well acquainted with Feikert Sand & Gravel’s operations and the challenges the company faces in producing top quality aggregate materials for a demanding market. Feikert Sand & Gravel Inc.’s new Matec Filter Press is ready for operation. One challenge common in quarry operations is the need to build and maintain settling ponds to contain sludge collected during the material washing process. The settling ponds require frequent and ongoing maintenance while taking up valuable space. Matec’s system is capable of extracting up to 99.9 percent of the silt from the overflow from sand screws, cyclones, classifying tanks etc. in a filtering process that results in an end product that lends itself to reuse as baseball diamond mix, an additive into topsoil, or as general fill for the reclamation of quarries. Used most often in aggregate and sand washing operations, the system also has applications in steel mills and other material processing facilities where water is used to clean or cool materials.

IROCK Crushers’ Sidewinder series of crushers are designed to screen out a high percentage of the feed material that is already at the required size before reaching the crusher. This minimizes the amount of material that runs through the crusher, increasing production and reducing wear. The Sidewinder crushers, which feature a closed-circuit design and a four-bar impactor, are capable of producing up to four product sizes — three uniformly sorted and one oversized product. A flop gate within the pant leg chute gives operators the option to either recirculate oversized material for further screening and crushing or divert it to be stockpiled as a 100 percent crushed material. Sidewinders are ideal for primary use in sand and gravel applications and recycled asphalt operations or for secondary use with materials such as recycled concrete and quarry rock. There are three sizes available, each with a three-deck horizontal screen.

With screening areas of 210, 288 and 360 sq. ft. (19.5, 26.7 and 33.4 sq m) respectively, the Sidewinder 15, 20 and 30 can process 400, 600 and 750 tons (363, 544 and 680 t). The mobile crushers feature IROCK’s rock box, an alternative to discharge chutes found on similar units. The rock box uses a shelf system with abrasion-resistant wear bars that allow crushed material to build up and act as a wear liner to effectively reduce maintenance. In addition, standard catwalks alongside the unit provide full access to each side of the screenbox for ease of maintenance or screen media changes. IROCK has 24-hour online parts look up and ordering, fast delivery, and live service support until 9 p.m. EST. For more information, call 866/240-0201 or visit www.irockcrushers.com.

Screener Crusher Processor Turns Heads on Windmill Farm All construction projects have unexpected surprises and last-minute changes. But a last-minute change helped The Morse Group discover new processes and uncover a new opportunity to save time and reduce cost on this and future jobs. The Illinois-based electrical contracting giant was just about to start a Wisconsin installation of direct-burial high-voltage underground cables for six 262-ft. (80 m) wind turbines, each with three 135-ft. (41 m) blades, when it was informed that the engineers wanted to switch from hauling in fill material to using the native material. Bruce Binger, a 20-year industry veteran and the project superintendent for The Morse Group, said, “The engineers learned from test results back just two days prior to the scheduled start of excavating that the native soil would adequately dissipate heat away from the electrical lines to allow them to carry the capacity needed for the installation. So, they wanted to use the native material to backfill as much as possible.” This was good news for The Morse Group because it reduced the need to purchase and haul in outside fill material. However, the native soil contained a lot of rocks because this area had glacier remains, so the material couldn’t go back into the ditch without separating the rocks out. No Time to Waste The development of the wind farm in Dane County for a private software company is located just northwest of Madison, the Wisconsin state capital, and is the county’s first commercial wind farm. The company has already installed a geothermal system and solar panels in its facilities. The addition of these wind turbines to the company’s current sustainable efforts will help them provide around 85 percent of its own energy by 2014. The project started in October, and the company wanted to complete the installation of the wind turbines by the end of the year. This tight timeframe meant that Binger needed to find a way to separate the good soil from the rock quickly to keep the project on schedule. It was after lunch on a Wednesday when Binger learned his crew would have to change its backfilling plan, yet still had to start digging by the weekend. To identify possible screening options and solutions, he did an internet search and discovered the hydraulically-powered Allu line of Screener Crusher Processor Attachments. After doing some further research and watching some product videos on the internet, he contacted Dennis Cade, Allu’s

The 10,000-ft. (3,048 m) ditch was 36 in. (91.4 cm) wide and 54 in. (137 cm) deep in spots and went from the main switch gear installation to each of the six wind turbines.

you walk on it,” said Binger. “If you were to just take a regular backhoe bucket and fill the ditch, and then take an Allu processor and fill the ditch, there would be a lot less settling involved after with the area using the screener bucket. The fines just automatically pack in and lock together better.”

The Cost Savings Continue The wind farm in Dane County originally posed a new challenge for Binger and The Morse Group. By having to find an acceptable way to separate rocks and debris from native material to refill the ditches, the company was able to realize additional cost savings and discover a new process it can use on future projects. Other possible solutions required The Morse Group to haul in and install Midwest territory sales manager, to pre-engineered backfill material and learn more about the product. The haul away any extra native material screener crusher processor is designed that wasn’t needed, or to haul in clean to separate the soil from rock and other soil. The company thus avoided having debris, and fit on The Morse Group’s to haul in soil by the truckload and rent 26.5 ton (24 t) Volvo excavator. At the the additional carriers such as wheel same time, Binger reached out to a loaders that would have been required trusted veteran equipment colleague to move the material, or alternatively who was familiar with the Allu product placing flowable fill that would be but completely independent of the delivered by ready-mix trucks. company.

Terex Fuchs MHL350 E HD Designed for Log Handling, Trailer Towing The new Terex Fuchs MHL350 E HD log handler features a purposebuilt undercarriage design and reach configuration to increase log handling efficiencies at the mill yard and in other loading/unload applications. The rugged undercarriage includes a broad outrigger base of 17.4 ft. (5.3 m) — 10 percent wider than the standard MHL350 E — for increased stability when loading and unloading trailers or charging the infeed deck. Standard independently controllable 4-point stabilizers deliver machine support on uneven terrain and broad 16.9by 23-in. (43 by 60 cm) stabilizer plates spread machine load over a large area. Large pneumatic tires provide enhanced flotation and traction, even when operating in marginal ground conditions. The front axle offers a 30 degree steering angle for efficient maneuvering in tight spaces. The handler’s two-speed powershift hydraulic transmission with four-wheel drive and rigid rear axle deliver the power and torque required for towing fully loaded log trailers. Greater than 24-in. (61 cm) ground clearance significantly reduces the risk of damaging undercarriage components when crossing obstacles. The new MHL350 E HD’s 23.9-ft. (7.3 m) boom and 20.3-ft. (6.7 m) dipperstick combination offers a 45.9-ft. (14 m) reach configured specifically for high volume log handling. The powerful log handler is capable of lifting up to a 15,600-lb. (7,076 kg) load at a 30-ft. (9.1 m) reach, and a variety of pulpwood and combination grapples are available to tailor the MHL350 E HD to meet specific log handling requirements. Attachment live-heel operation is conveniently controlled via a foot pedal inside the operator’s cabin. The fuel efficient turbocharged diesel engine of the MHL350 E HD uses exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) technology to meet Tier IVi (Stage III B) emissions standards. The handler boasts a 214-hp (160 kW) engine that offers 8 percent more power output than the D Series, while, at the same time, lowers specific fuel consumption by up to 11 percent. Regeneration of the diesel particulate filter occurs automatically, without impacting machine

performance, and the regeneration process can be temporarily interrupted, if necessary, by pressing an indicator button located on the control panel. Engine start/stop is push-button controlled to properly manage engine shutdown while under critical load conditions or during DPF regeneration.

Hydraulically height-adjustable, the handler’s cab offers a maximum eyelevel elevation of up to 18.4 ft. (5.6 m) above ground level, improving the efficiency of trailer loading/unloading and infeed deck charging. Its cushioned cab elevation system absorbs shocks and jolts, increasing operator comfort.

A high-performance main hydraulic pump increases pump capacity by 3 percent over the D Series. Combined with improved engine performance, the increased oil flow provides greater handling efficiency of the MHL350 E HD. Both the engine and hydraulic system incorporate separate large surface area coolers protected by vented panels that provide increased airflow. The engine’s hydraulically powered fan is designed to automatically adjust airflow, based on operating conditions, to provide the right level of cooling, and standard reversible-direction fans help to clear the coolers of debris during operation. Controls inside the spacious cab have been updated to improve operator efficiency and comfort. At 23 percent larger than previous designs, the wide video graphics array (WVGA) display includes a high resolution and high contrast screen with an antiglare shield and scratch-resistant coating. Intuitive controls with 12 buttons reserved for frequently used functions make for a short learning curve of MHL350 E HD operation, and an ergonomic multifunction button delivers effortless fingertip navigation through the display.

Machine filters and central lubrication system are accessed via a stowaway ladder leading to the machine’s centrally located service platform. The handler’s fuel prefilter is mounted on top of the fuel tank for easier servicing. The vented panels covering the engine and hydraulic system coolers are lockable and readily accessed from ground level. Additional CAN Bus connections found on the MHL350 E HD expand diagnostic capabilities, so service technicians can identify and address underlying issues. The Terex Fuchs MHL350 E HD is equipped with a standard rear-view camera system. Color video of the area behind the machine is visible on the WVGA display, providing an expanded view of the work area around the machine. The handler’s contoured counterweight protects the camera from damage during operation. For more information, visit www.terex.com/construction.

Mine Expansion to Claim Vital Iron Range Highway By John Croman KARE-TV

VIRGINIA, Minn. (AP) A key stretch of U.S. Highway 53 must be removed by 2017 to make way for the expansion of a taconite ore mine, based on the terms of an agreement the state struck with a mining company in 1960. “We’ve got to move it because the state of Minnesota signed a contract with the mining company back then,’’ said Sen. David Tomassoni, a Chisholm Democrat. The highway is a main route for those travelling from Duluth to International Falls on the Canadian border, but locally it’s a vital connection that ties together the four Iron Range communities of Virginia, Eveleth, Mountain Iron and Gilbert. “Highway 53 here is everything to us,’’ Jim Downing, a retired miner, told KARE-TV. “If the highway wasn’t here we’d probably just shrink up right away, as a community.’’ The piece of four-lane freeway that must be vacated straddles a small section of land between United Taconite’s active ore mine and the old Rouchleau Pit, an abandoned iron ore mine that is now filled with natural spring water. The highway was built on private property, but the mining companies granted the state a free easement, allowing the road to be there at least 50 years. In 2010, the mining company notified the state that it needed the land back to mine it. “The understanding at the time was that, when it became time for the mining companies to mine that area that the state would move the road at its cost,’’ Sandy Karnowski of United Taconite, a division of Cliffs Natural Resources, told KARE. “And, as you can see here, United Taconite has moved as close as we can,’’ she added, pointing to the sheer wall of the massive mining pit, which lies 300 ft. (91 m) from the highway. The mining operation is as near to the highway as it can be, based on existing regulations and the need to do blasting on a regular basis. The Minnesota Department of Transportation, or MnDOT, has been meeting with community groups for the past year to gather input on a set of alternative routes. The agency is studying all of the possible replacement highway designs as part of drafting an Environmental Impact Statement required by the federal government for moving a highway. Roberta Dwyer, the MnDOT engineer leading the effort to design a new route, told

KARE it’s a unique situation. “Whether you look at it from having to relocate the road for mining, or whether you look at it from the construction angle, or impacts on the community, this is far from being a typical highway project,’’ Dwyer said. She said the project budget is tentatively set at $60 million, but that will vary depending on which relocation route Transportation Commissioner Charlie Zelle eventually

the Iron Range, which is another reason to extend the life of the mine. One option created an uproar in this part of the Iron Range. Known as the “westerly route’’ it would have run Highway 53 to the west of Eveleth and connected to Highway 169 on the west side of Virginia. For some people living south of the mine, a 2-mi. trip to downtown Virginia would have become a 20-mi. trip. “Everything here ties to Highway 53 from

the highest bridge in Minnesota,’’ Dwyer said, adding that it would probably cost more than $60 million to build the route. The alternative that appears to have the most support at this point is known as the E1A option. It also would cross the Rouchleau Pit, but at a point where the water is shallower. In fact, that option would rely on draining part of the pit and building up the earth into a land bridge. MnDOT has already drilled rock samples under that area to make sure it doesn’t become tempting as a new mining location in the future. “The goal at this point is to make sure we don’t have to move the road again,’’ Dwyer said. “Nobody here wants to see their children or grandchildren go through another relocation 50 years from now.’’ Local auto dealer Kerry Waschke David Tomassoni Collie said the land bridge option U.S. Senate seems to be the most appealing choice at this point. Her family-owned company invested nearly one million dollars renovating the dealership in the east and west,’’ said Charlie Baribeau, a Virginia several years ago after being retired pharmacist and longtime Virginia assured the “westerly route’’ wouldn’t City Council member. “It’s a main artery to become a reality. get to all the businesses.’’ But when that route reappeared on Baribeau said it wasn’t just a matter of MnDOT’s list of options, Waschke Collie retailers and other businesses losing com- joined the community effort to convince the mercial traffic, but said it would make it state to take it off the table. tougher to get patients to the emergency She said she appreciates MnDOT’s efforts room at Essentia Health, the main hospital in to listen to business owners and others who the Virginia area, in time to save them. would be affected. “You need a window to start medications “The schools depend on running buses on and get the patients treated, but it would take that section, and we have instructors at the our ambulance services in this area an extra community college that move from one 30 to 40 minutes to get people on the east campus to the other throughout the day,’’ she end of the Range.’’ said.

selects. The draft Environmental Impact Statement should be formally published in the late spring of 2014. Zelle will issue his decision on the preferred route after a public hearing and comment period. Design and construction is slated to start in mid-2015, so it can be completed in 2017 when the area becomes part of the United Taconite mine, which stretches between Eveleth and Virginia. For Iron Range lawmakers the cost of the project is justified by the importance of that section of Highway 53 to the local economy, and the mining jobs that will be saved or added by expanding the pit. “There’s a ripple effect that happens all through the economy when we lose jobs, and these are good paying jobs,’’ Tomassoni explained. “These are not minimum wage type jobs.’’ One alternative would be for MnDOT to leave the highway where it is and simply purchase the mineral rights for the land under the roadway, but that would cost far more than building a new highway. It also would preclude going after the taconite ore in that area, and the jobs that go along with that. “For us it was never about trying to convince the mining company to not want to dig there,’’ said Rep. Jason Metsa, a Virginia Democrat. “The entire community’s supportive of moving this road.’’ Karnowski noted that much of the steel in household appliances and cars made in the United States begins as raw taconite ore on

TMW Provides Market With New, Versatile Scraper Bucket still full, versus just piling it off to the side, to only then come back later (a second time) and load it up into a truck box with a conventional bucket. In addition, the Scraper Bucket doesn’t have gauge wheels on the front of it, like most of the other scraper attachments available; it’s more compact, suitable for smaller confined space areas or large jobs. But at the same time, the Scraper Bucket expands the scope of jobs not normally done with a skid steer. The Scraper Bucket does not lose its feathering capabilities with the front cutting edge; meaning, the front cutting edge of the Scraper Bucket is just the same as a conventional low profile bucket. The back dragging capabilities of the front edge stays the same as a conventional bucket. With the Scraper Bucket, the scraping blade position itself sets the depth, not some other set of side gauges or skid plates.

The Scraper Bucket doesn’t have gauge wheels on the front of it, like most of the other scraper attachments available; it’s more compact, suitable for smaller jobs. But at the same time, the Scraper Bucket expands the scope of jobs not normally done with a skid steer.

TMW Attachments (Thielen Machine & Welding) has introduced a new Scraper Bucket attachment for Skid Steer Loaders. The Scraper Bucket can be used as a regular bucket for dozing, digging and loading material into trucks or pilling material. The Scraper Bucket will let the operator fill the bucket similar to larger self-propelled scraper according to TMW Attachments. The Scraper Bucket will do everything a low profile dirt bucket will do plus it has a controlled scraping feature. TMW Attachments was aware of the need to have a bucket that could change from a regular bucket to a scraper bucket on the fly so it would be capable of cutting a predetermined cut in dirt over a long distance without the bucket diving into or popping out the ground, all with minimal skill required from the operator. The Scraper Bucket uses the front cutting edge on the bucket as a depth control and the second hydraulic controlled cutting edge to control the depth of cut and to fill the bucket. According to Ben Tulibaski, the designer of the Scraper Bucket, this is relevant because “When I'm using the Scraper Bucket I’m always encountering different soil conditions which require the depth of cut to be adjusted often. Another reason why this bucket is set apart, according to

Tulibaski, is the proven fact that the harder the soil conditions get, the better the bucket works. “Most attachments designed for cutting soil need optimal soil conditions for the attachment to work well, all the time, every time.” Other digging/scraping buckets use gauge wheels or some sort of “manual” adjustment, usually bolted onto the front, sides or behind the attachment, which requires the operator to stop, get out, and loosen bolts by hand in order to make a depth adjustment. With the Scraper Bucket, the scraping blade is controlled by hydraulic cylinders to set the depth you want cut, not some other set of side gauges or skid plates. What Sets It Apart? The hydraulic depth control is built into the design and hidden away within the attachment. Similar attachments will not allow an operator to go from scraping mode, to hauling or loading mode, then on to finishing mode, without switching attachments. This may be required many times per day at the job site. The Scraper Bucket also is the only self-loading bucket on the market that is capable of loading a truck immediately after a scraping operation is performed, while the bucket is

One advantage the Scraper Bucket has over others is it does not take a skid steer with 75 horse power or more with tracks to push the Scraper Bucket. The bucket is available in different sizes for a variety of machines and applications. “Since the Scraper Bucket was built about three years ago I have never needed my conventional low profile bucket for any dirt jobs,” said Tulibaski. A conventional bucket either wants to dive in the ground, or pop out of the ground when the operator is trying to dig out a hard packed layer of material, according to Tulibaski. “The Scraper Bucket reduces this problem and makes the most difficult tasks, which are the most common tasks, easy. Even if the operator manages to dig out the top hard packed layer of material, as soon as the ground gets driven on a couple of times, a new layer of hard pack material starts to emerge and packs in, and it just starts all over again.” A video of the Scraper Bucket at work is on the TMW Web site: www.tmwattachments.com (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Ten new Cat E-Series hammers — designed for use with mini-excavators, skid steer loaders and backhoe loaders — are available in both “silenced” and side-plate versions.

Ten new Cat E-Series hammers — designed for use with mini-excavators, skid steer loaders and backhoe loaders — are available in both “silenced” and side-plate versions. Four sizes — H35, H45, H55 and H65 — are offered in two mounting configurations for installation on both Caterpillar and competitive carriers. Silenced hammers, identified with “s” in the model designation, use a fully enclosed housing to suppress noise, a valuable feature in sensitive work environments and in smallmachine applications in which the hammer is in close proximity to the operator. Nonsilenced, side plate models are available for all four sizes. Flat-top models allow versatility for installation on Caterpillar and equipment made by other manufacturers. Pin-on models are available for the H55E and H65E in applications that require a dedicated, hammer-equipped Cat machine. Premium Features Several features assure convenient installation, comfortable operation and long hammer life. These hammers are designed and engineered to match auxiliary flows and pressures of the Cat machine. Plus, hydraulic

ports are positioned for convenient installation. As soon as the hammer is “plugged” in, it is ready to perform. Suspension system on the silenced models include buffers at the top and bottom to absorb reflective forces and isolate them from the machine. A suspension jack helps to dampen vibration and sound. The result is quiet, reliable operation and reduced operator fatigue. To protect the hammer from internal stress, an automatic shut-off can be activated. This instantly stops the piston when the hammer breaks through material which in turn protects the hammer from blank-firing. Easy Maintenance These new E-Series hammers include 47 percent fewer parts than did their D-Series predecessors. This allows for quicker and easier servicing. When it comes to daily maintenance, a single grease point is conveniently located and easily accessed. Tool changes are accomplished with common hand tools. For more information, visit www.cat.com.

Kobelco’s New U.S. Headquarters Supports Rapid Growth When Kobelco Construction Machinery USA relaunched its popular line of crawler excavators as an independent brand earlier this year, the company never imagined how quickly they’d reestablish a footing in North America. The signing of more than 50 dealers in its first six months drove a significant demand for Kobelco excavators, a demand that Kobelco worldwide has diligently worked to support throughout 2013, and one that has helped the company regain market share within its first year of independent operation. “We couldn’t be more pleased with the early results of our brand relaunch,” said Pete Morita, president and CEO of Kobelco Construction Machinery USA. “In just a short time period we’ve hired some of the industry’s most qualified personnel, opened our temporary headquarters and parts warehouse and partnered with our dealers to provide quality, competitively priced products. All of these initiatives are just the beginning of what we have planned for the North American marketplace.” Kobelco Construction Machinery’s fast paced growth has resulted in expedited plans to build a permanent U.S. based headquarters. The company originally anticipated to build within five years, but started making it

NDA’s Environmental Awards Salutes Jobs in Seven States The National Demolition Association (NDA) presented the 3nd annual Environmental Excellence Awards to five companies which have performed demolition projects that demonstrate significant environmental conservation and community improvement, while bringing about a discernible positive impact on the quality of life in the United States and Canada. “The Environmental Excellence Awards recognize NDA member companies which are true leaders in environmental stewardship,” said Michael R. Taylor, executive director of the NDA. “Environmental stewardship is one of the demolition industry’s primary missions and these winning projects help illustrate truly dramatic efforts our members have made to make this a reality.” The winning projects, which were honored at the National Demolition Association’s 40th Annual Convention in Las Vegas, are: Project: Mohave Generating Station, Laughlin, Nev. NDA Member: NCM Demolition & Remediation, Brea, Calif. NCM is currently decommissioning Southern California Edison’s giant Mohave Generating Station in Laughlin, Nev., just

west of Las Vegas. The power plant is a 1,580-mW, coal-fired electric generating station situated on 3,000 acres adjacent to the Colorado River. The facility has 217 acres of storage ponds, evaporating ponds and a 300acre landfill. The scope of NCM’s scope of services includes asset recovery, asbestos abatement, hazardous materials handling, structural demolition, relocations of pond contents, and closure of the onsite landfill. Project: Revitalizing the city of Saginaw, Mich. NDA Member: Bierlein Companies Inc., Midland, Mich. Bierlein Companies partnered with AKT Peerless Environmental and Energy Services to reform environmental remediation and demolition services at the Downtown Saginaw Redevelopment Project. The scope of the project included the demolition of the eight-story Crowne Plaza Hotel and the adjacent 160,000-sq.-ft. Downtown Saginaw Mall. The work also included abatement of 200,000 sq. ft. of asbestos material and universal waste removal. Some 98 percent of the building materials on site were recycled. Project: Plymouth Cordage Mill #2 Demolition and Recycling, Plymouth,

Mass. NDA Member: Costello Dismantling Co., West Wareham, Mass. During the demolition of the Plymouth Cordage Mill in Plymouth, Mass., Costello Dismantling was looking for innovative ways to recycle high-quality Southern Yellow Pine beams and structural decking in the building that have been exposed to more than a century of saturation from mineral oil used to condition hemp fibers prior to rope manufacturing. After rigorous testing, sorting and shredding, the lumber was converted into 4,500 tons of bio-fuel. Project: Gaspesia Pulp and Paper Mill, Chandler, QC, Canada. NDA Member: EDS, Montreal, QC, Canada EDS received a turnkey contract to dismantle and pack all process equipment; to perform the complete remediation of all contaminated materials; to remediate and decontaminate the entire site; to complete the demolition of all buildings and other structures on the site; and to recycle all of the structural steel and non-ferrous metals on site. The object of the work was to provide the local community with a remediated site and green area for future park and golf course development.

Project: Reuse and Recycling in Projects in Kansas, Missouri, New York, Utah. NDA Member: PlanetReuse, Kansas City, Mo. The goal of PlanetReuse’s projects is to increase the reuse of reclaimed materials in a way that is beneficial to the owners, the demolition and recycling industries, and the end users. Examples include the reuse of 86,000 sq. ft. of cypress, reclaimed hemlock, Douglas fir, and pine/spruce in a school in Greensburg, Kan.; the use of reclaimed material for the exterior walls of Kansas City’s Kaufman Center of the Performing Arts and bridges in Utah; 10,000 sq. ft. of oak flooring from a restaurant in Kansas City’s Power & Light District, which was processed for reuse as flooring in two new retail projects; and recycled portion of President Obama’s inauguration state into framing and walls for the Omega Institute for Sustainable Living in Rhinebeck, N.Y.

Stainless Steel Tailgate Spreader FFC V-Blade Easily Designed to Meet High Demands Adjusts for Diverse Plowing Operations

Crysteel Manufacturing’s stainless steel tailgate spreader is designed to effectively spread deicing materials while meeting the high demands for efficiency and dependability all winter long, according to the manufacturer. Corrosion resistant stainless steel delivers durability in the toughest environments, and a fully tapered trough eliminates all flat surfaces, preventing material hang ups. Available with a 6- or 9-in. (15 or 23 cm) auger, the tailgate spreader also features a full opening bottom trough hinged on the body side for easy accessibility and clean out. The direct drive design minimizes maintenance and allows independent control of the auger and spinner. The Crysteel stainless steel tailgate spreader is backed by a twoyear warranty.

The FFC V-Blade easily adjusts to achieve straight, left/right, scoop or V-position, providing the versatility needed to efficiently remove snow from walks, driveways and parking lots.

Winter Xtendor Cutting Edge System Winter Equipment Company has designed a snow plow blade system for small plow truck contractors. The Xtendor System is designed to increase blade life as much as 400 percent and it will help eliminate the hassle and cost of blade replacement for a contractor’s light duty trucks, according to the manufacturer. Easy-to-assemble system comes complete with 1.5 by 6 in. (1.3 by 15 cm) high quality steel cutting edge two Winter Xtendor PlowGuards with Winter Carbide Matrix protection on bottom and blade end, plow bolts and assembly instructions. For more information, call 800/294-6837 or visit www.WinterEquipment.com.

The FFC V-Blade manufactured by Paladin Attachments attaches to skid steers and compact wheel loaders up to operating weights of 13,200 lbs. (5,987 kg). The FFC V-Blade easily adjusts to achieve straight, left/right, scoop or V-position, providing the versatility needed to efficiently remove snow from walks, driveways and parking lots. It comes in blade widths ranging from 60 to 120 in. (152 to 305 cm) and is available with a hydraulic sequencing valve or Paladin’s electro-hydraulic system, which improves blade control and independent blade function, according to the manufacturer. The FFC V-Blade offers a reversible cutting edge designed to deliver greater wear life than traditional cutting edges. Fully adjustable skid shoes allow the user to match operations to varying job conditions, while top and side pinch guards increase safety and keep the pivot area free of debris. The FFC V-Blade is engineered with fewer components and less hardware than other adjustable snow blades, making it up to 200 lbs. (90.7 kg) lighter than other models and easier to maneuver. In addition, the design incorporates a robust central ball joint that allows for improved multiaxial movement.

AEM Names Hall of Fame Inductees for Off-Road Equipment Industry The Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) announced the 2013 inductees into the AEM Hall of Fame, which recognizes and celebrates outstanding individuals in the off-road equipment industry and their legacy of innovation, service and leadership. Their vision and hard work have been critical to advancing global economic and social prosperity; their legacy strengthens continued industry contributions to improving our quality of life, and serves as an inspiration for tomorrow’s leaders. AEM Hall of Fame inductees have been evaluated by an independent panel of industry experts on five criteria that are vital to the health of the off-road equipment manufacturing industry: 1) innovation, 2) industry contributions, 3) leadership, 4) corporate citizenship/social responsibility and 5) sustainability. About the 2013 Hall of Fame Inductees Below are summaries for each of the 2013 honorees with some of the reasons they were selected for induction. • Dipl.-Ing. Dr. h. c. Helmut Claas (CLAAS KGaA mbH) Helmut Claas, an engineer by education and with indepth and hands-on farming experience, has dedicated his professional life and engineering talents to agricultural crop production sustainability. He joined Claas in 1957, was named managing director of technology in 1962, and later became CEO. He initiated or co-designed many Claas innovations, including the Dominator Series combine harvesters, Jaguar forage harvesters and Xerion tractors. Much of Claas’s success can be attributed to Helmut Claas’s leadership and belief that progress comes only if companies are willing to invest in often uncharted territory for the sake of advancing equipment technology and innovation. He also recognized the importance of building coalitions, oftentimes with competitors, for the good of the industry. Under his leadership, the company has successfully established manufacturing facilities in many world regions, generating total turnover of approximately $5 billion with about 10,000 employees worldwide. Founded by his father, August Claas, 2013 marks the company’s 100th year in business. A firm believer in fostering development of the next generation, Helmut Claas established the CLAAS Foundation in 1999, which promotes education and research and development in agricultural technology and related engineering and economic disciplines. In recognition of his contributions, he has received honorary doctorates and professorship from prestigious universities in Germany, Great Britain, Russia, Hungary and Bulgaria. His awards and other high decorations include the Profesor-Niklas-Medal of the German Ministry of Agriculture, Order of Merit of the French Ministry of Agriculture, and Order of Merit of the British Association of Agricultural Engineers. • Ray O’Connor (Topcon Positioning Group) Ray O’Connor joined Topcon in 1993 as the only employee dedicated to laser products. O’Connor had one goal: automate the construction industry. Today, with the joining of imaging, GNSS, scanning, and software technology, there are few construction sites or farms that do not use automated positioning. To meet the global requirement

of positioning automation, he developed a ring of technology centers where the brightest geospatial engineers in North America, Europe, Asia and Australia create the next generation of products. O’Connor mandates that every product for every market segment supports the theme of “time”: saving it by increasing productivity, minimizing the disruptive footprint of a project and reducing use of renewable and non-renewable resources. Recognizing the importance of educating future generations of end users, O’Connor helped implement the Topcon Educational Partnership Program, which provides a full range of educational tools to more than 500 universities and associations worldwide. O’Connor is the 2006 recipient of Toshiba Corporation’s Business Performance Award (the first recipient of nonJapanese descent) for “his superior leadership and performance.” In 2012, Pompeii, Italy, honored him for supporting “preservation and renovation” of the landmark city; the University of Naples awarded him an honorary doctorate degree for his efforts. O’Connor also received an honorary doctorate from The Dublin Institute of Technology for his “global leadership in precision measurement technology.” Geospatial World magazine named him Business Leader of the Year in 2013. • Friedrich W. Schwing Sr. (Schwing GmbH) Friedrich Schwing Sr., founder of Schwing GmbH, has more than 1,200 patents relating to innovations in material handling and construction equipment. Most notably, the Schwing all-hydraulic, twin-cylinder concrete pump design powers the majority of modern concrete pumps. This invention established a new method for moving concrete through a pipeline resulting in structures that could not have been built prior to the modern concrete pump. His invention resulted in construction efficiency without the manual labor and with extraordinary speed of placement never before achieved by other methods. His engineering expertise was not only aimed at product performance but also operator safety. Schwing helped establish the American Concrete Pumping Association (ACPA), which has safety as a key focus. Schwing’s corporate policy directed resources towards safety guidelines, safety seminars, safety materials and hundreds of hours of donated employee time on industry committees and boards. Schwing led by example with a work ethic and modesty that meant he wore the oldest suit and drove a 20-year-old car. His leadership style was to delegate functions better left to his employees, so he could pursue solutions through engineering. Schwing also had a penchant for sustainability before it was popular. Another of his innovations was a ready-mix reclaimer introduced in the 1980s to convert returned concrete to its components of sand, aggregate, cement and water. This system provides 100-percent recycling of these materials for economic and environmental benefits, especially less water use and excess concrete dumping. Nominations for the next AEM Hall of Fame will open in spring 2014. For more information, visit www.aem.org/HallofFame.

Crews Replace Original Arch Bridge With Two New Spans

Cat backhoes working in tight quarters excavate a new storm sewer line as part of the residential street improvements needed for the new highway geometrics.

All of the major bridge and highway work is done now and just in time for the holiday shopping and travel season and before the snow begins to fly again.

INTERCHANGE from page 32

ornamental railing and lighting posts mounted on top of their decks. Road upgrades below the bridge included the addition of a 14 ft. (4.3 m) escape lane on the south side of the highway and a 10 ft. (3 m) shoulder on the north side to complement the two, 12 ft. highway lanes of through traffic in each direction. Another several thousand feet of local road upgrades on both sides of interchange also were made to improve the local flow of traffic and connection to the interchange. When construction began in late April, unseasonably cool and wet weather including a couple of 6 in. snow storms slowed excavating crews digging to relocate existing utilities and laying new storm and water mains, Rustad said. The contractor, he added, brought in another excavating crew and worked longer hours to make up for the lost time. “In the spring we had the rain which slowed down the work that needed to be done before we could close down Highway 36,” said Rustad. Road crews had to complete this work and the construction of the local road system on the north and south sides of the highway to maintain access to those areas before the highway could be shut down. “Once we were able to do that, then we were able to get into the 75 day closure for the Highway 36 work,” Rustad said. “And, they used all 75 days to get it done.” Along a 700 ft. (214 m) section of the road west of English Street, designers took a different approach to support the road bed to add strength to some poor soil conditions. Located under the westbound lanes of this

stretch of the highway, MnDOT engineers decided to place a geo foam base to strengthen the road bed. “In the spring, the water table is high in that area. We needed the strength without the weight,” Rustad said. “So we dug down 7 feet and put in 4 feet of geo foam and put a concrete cap on it and filled it back in. The geo foam layer should prevent our road from buckling or weaving up and down.” Nearly 3800 cu. yd. (2,907 cu m) of dirt was trucked out to make this cut to prepare it for the geo foam layer and road base. Another 247,741 cu. yd. (189,520 cu m) of common excavation was removed throughout the project area. Other quantities included 32,230 ft. (9,830 m) of curb and gutter, 6,562 ft. (2,000 m) of sewer pipe, 188,600 lb. (84,870 kg) of reinforcement bars for the English Street bridge and 1,029 ft. (313 m) of pre-stressed beams for the bridge. During the peak of construction through

the summer months, dozens of pieces of heavy equipment roamed up and down the highway corridor now stripped of all its concrete. Over a half dozen Cat backhoes on any given day could be seen digging for the utilities while approximately two dozen Cat scrapers, graders, dozers and rollers prepared the earthen base for the road bed. A pair of American 7260 cranes, a pair of American 5299 cranes and a 50 ton (45 t) Grove Hydro towered over the site to build the retaining walls and new bridges. While English Street was a crossing for vehicular traffic, it also was a heavily used pedestrian route. With all the equipment moving up and down the construction corridor and to maintain a safe crossing for pedestrians without a lengthy walking detour, MnDOT staff took a somewhat unique step to create a pedestrian lane across the construction zone. Posted with stop signs at the temporary pedestrian walk, construction traffic came to

a halt for the pedestrians crossing from one side of the road to the other, Rustad said. Near the west end of the road work and just beyond the full road closure, bridge crews removed the original arch bridge spanning the lake channel and constructed two new bridges for the east and westbound lanes crossing over the water. Completed under traffic conditions to keep traffic flowing one way in each direction, the construction went well Rustad said and was done in the scheduled 65 days. Building one bridge at a time, crews installed sheet piling and pumped the water out to maintain dry conditions to build the bridge from pre-cast segments. “We had our pre-cast piling, pre-cast abutments and pier caps and we had inverted T’s for the beams,” Rustad said. “The only thing we cast in place was the bridge deck and barrier. At a heavily used clover leaf interchange of TH 36 and TH 61 at the west end of the project, crews dug out infiltration ponds on each of the four loops of the interchange to improve the local water resources at the request of the county watershed district. “We had to shut down each loop as we were putting in the infiltration basins to filter out contaminates flowing in the local lake system,” Rustad said. All of the major bridge and highway work is done now and just in time for the holiday shopping and travel season and before the snow begins to fly again. Crews will finish out the season with some minor concrete work that will not affect any traffic.

Derrick Pursley is an HDD drill operator with West Texas Boring Co.

Derrick Pursley, an HDD drill operator and Texas native, was crowned the ultimate operator on the opening day of the International Construction and Utility Equipment Exposition (ICUEE) in Louisville, Ky. Pursley’s recognition as the ultimate operator is the culmination of the yearlong Navigator Nation campaign from Vermeer that celebrates and honors HDD operators. “In this industry each day is different. I continuously learn something new,” said Pursley. “I’ve had jobs in the past where I didn’t want to go to work, but I’ve never had that feeling in this business. I enjoy what I do, and I’m proud to do it.” The purpose of the campaign was to show the passion and expertise drill operators have for their profession and elevate awareness for the new generation of HDD operators. A video contest began in January where videos were submitted of their outstanding HDD crews to the campaign Web site, NavigatorNation.com. Nearly 31,000 unique site visitors from 92 countries visited NavigatorNation.com throughout the course of the year. More than 100 profiles were submitted and the site received nearly 15,000 votes in total with Pursley receiving the most votes. For more information, visit www.vermeer.com.

Ditch Witch Releases JT25 Horizontal Directional Drill Ditch’s Witch JT25 horizontal directional drill is designed primarily for utility backbone work. Offering thrust and pullback of 27,000 lbs. and a rotational drive producing 4,000 ft.-lbs. of torque, the JT25 is an ideal drill for installing utility pipe and cables of up to 4 in. (10 cm) in diameter at lengths of up to 500 ft. (152 m). The rotational drive system features a single low-speed, high-torque motor that is smooth, quiet and efficient. The JT25 is powered by a 130-hp, Tier IVi Cummins diesel engine that is seven decibels quieter than the engine of its main competitor, making the JT25 the quietest drill in its class; it is, in fact, the quietest among all Ditch Witch drills, according to the manufacturer. The JT25 is designed for low maintenance and high productivity. It is engineered with a low center of gravity to improve stability. Field tests have demonstrated that the JT25 is stable across all types of terrain. Enhancing the machine’s stability are dual rear independent stabilizers and a dual-pivot frame that allows steep entry angles without having to raise the tracks off the ground.

The JT25 is an ideal drill for installing utility pipe and cables of up to 4 in. (10 cm) in diameter at lengths of up to 500 ft. (152 m).

The JT25 is simple to operate, with either single- or dual-joystick control of thrust and rotation. Like other Ditch Witch drills, the JT25 offers automated, intuitive carve mode that reduces operator fatigue and error. The field-proven pipeloading system is simple but efficient, with minimal moving parts,

and open-top vise wrenches give the operator an excellent view of the tool joint, according to the manufacturer. The service points on the JT25 are centralized in one easily accessible location, reducing maintenance time and further enhancing productivity. Plus, the JT25 has

no grease zerks, eliminating this common maintenance requirement. For more information, call 800/654-6481 or visit www.ditchwitch.com. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Apprenticeship Program Growing in Northern Kentucky Amanda Vanbenschoten THE KENTUCKY ENQUIRER

ERLANGER, Ky. (AP) When the recession hit in 2008, the bottom fell out of the housing market virtually overnight. Construction sites became ghost towns. New construction plummeted by 70 percent. Workers found themselves suddenly out of jobs, and many left the industry altogether. While the economy and the housing market are on the rebound nationally and locally, many of those workers have not returned. The fledgling recovery is stunted by a serious shortage of skilled workers, but the Home Builders Association of Northern Kentucky is trying to fill that gap. Its Enzweiler Apprentice Training Program — the oldest private trade school in the nation — is seeing record enrollment and turning out a record number of skilled workers in fields such as carpentry, plumbing, welding, roofing, electrical and remodeling. More than 200 students are enrolled in one of the school’s six programs, and more than 100 of them will hit the streets in May. “We’re set to graduate over 100 students

this year, which is our largest graduating class on record. And still, it’s just a drop in the bucket,’’ said Brian Miller, executive director of the Northern Kentucky HBA. Miller estimated the region’s commercial, industrial and residential construction industry needs to add 200 jobs each month just to keep up with demand. The housing industry accounts for about a third of that number. “We’re still at a vast shortage of where we need to be,’’ he said. “It’s affecting our members ... And it’s affecting the price of housing. That’s really what we’re trying to get to: one, is to keep our industry healthy, but also to keep housing affordable.’’ About 95 percent of the trade school’s students are already employed by the time they graduate. “Our biggest problem with the labor shortage is we don’t graduate anybody who doesn’t have a job already,’’ said Thomas Napier, the program’s director. “Ninety-five percent of our folks are employed when they leave us.’’ Many of them are like Jason Fultz of Independence, a second-year carpentry student. Just 19 years old, he already has a full-

time job as an apprentice with Neal Construction, an HBA member. “The HBA helped me find a job; I’m driving my own company van now,’’ he said. Fultz considered college, but he’d heard too many stories about college grads who couldn’t find jobs. Besides, the trades are in his blood: as a kid, he’d tag along on jobs with his dad, also a carpenter. “It’s a really good school,’’ he said. “I don’t know where I’d be if I didn’t have that school.’’ By the time he graduates from the twoyear carpentry program in May, Fultz will already have two years of real-world experience under his belt and be eligible to take his journeyman test. He hopes to start his own remodeling and finishing business. The school’s curriculum is designed to get students like Fultz into the trades more quickly than the normal apprentice process, which can take years. At about $1,100 per year, it’s a steal. Students also receive credit at Gateway Community & Technical College. Students work full-time during the day, earning work hours for the program and a paycheck. They attend classes several

nights each week at the HBA office in Erlanger. Six programs are offered: carpentry, welding, HVAC, plumbing, electrical and remodeling/maintenance. Masonry will be added next year. Each is certified by the state except the welding program, which is aimed at workers in the industry who want to pick up a new skill. Each curriculum is reviewed annually by HBA members and kept up-todate with the latest building codes. And the instructors are experienced workers in each field; most of them graduated from the trade school themselves. Graduates are certified by the HBA, and they’re strongly encouraged to take the state licensure test in their chosen field. The school has a 100 percent pass rate for electrical and HVAC graduates. The trade school’s graduates aren’t required to work in the construction industry, but many of them do — becoming the next generation of workers who Miller and Napier hope revitalize the region’s oncerobust housing industry.

Mattracks EZtracks — The Shape of Things to Come Mattracks, a pioneer of the rubber track conversion systems, introduced its newest series in its already diverse track lineup, EZtracks. After years of development that included testing all around the globe, Mattracks has engineered this new series to be affordable and at the same time innovative and new. “Perfection doesn’t have to come at a price,” said CEO Glen Brazier. “It’s the shape of things to come.” The EZtracks system, with its unique shape due to its “Boa ConTrack-tion” system, allows an increased footprint that is centrally located under the vehicle’s axles to provide equal ground pressure over The EZtracks system allows an increased footprint that is centrally located under the vehicle’s axles to provide equal ground the entire system all while keeping the pressure over the entire system all while keeping the tracks within the confines of the vehicle’s overall length. tracks within the confines of the vehicle’s overall length and providing extra ride is accomplished by its wheel arrange- (thus the name) and was first introduced in autonomous navigation.

down in 20, and largely flat in the remaining 11. “Over the past 10 years, on average nationally, federal funding has provided 52 percent of the money invested by state transportation departments in road and bridge capital improvement projects,” Black said, noting, “The federal share ranges from 35 percent in New Jersey to over 70 percent in 11 states.” “Absent congressional action to improve the revenue stream into the federal Highway Trust Fund before next October, federal support for state programs faces a potential $40 billion cut in fiscal year 2015,” she said. “That uncertainty is already putting a damper on state project lettings. Congress needs to act.” “If the federal program can be at least stabilized, the longer term outlook for pavements could be much more positive,” Black said. “Bipartisan political support for signif-

icantly increased transportation investment has been seen in a number of bell-weather states this year, including Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio, Maryland and Massachusetts. Wyoming and Vermont passed gas tax increases for expanded investment. Eighty-five percent of the 2014 transportation investment ballot initiatives passed. And the public-private investment market is picking-up with the expansion of the federal loan guarantee program.” ARTBA’s 2014 forecast for other transportation modes: Bridges & Tunnels — Bridge and tunnel construction is expected to grow from $28.5 billion in 2013 to a record-level $30.1 billion next year. ARTBA said large projects in 10 states — California, Florida, Illinois, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Texas, Kentucky, Virginia and Washington — will account for about half of U.S. market activity in this sector.

waterway construction market, which has grown by a third since 2011 in anticipation of increased sea trade through the Panama Canal starting in 2015, is expected to grow another $100 million, to $3.0 billion next year. The top market states will be: California, Florida, Illinois, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, Texas, Virginia and Washington. Airport Runways & Terminals — The total value of airport runway and terminal construction is expected to increase 17 percent to $14.7 billion in 2014, ARTBA forecasts. Market-driving states will include: Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, New York, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia and Washington. Light Rail, Subways & Railroads — The domestic light rail, subway and railroad construction markets will continue to see growth in 2014. Subway and light rail work will grow five percent to $7.9 billion from

$7.5 billion. Heavy rail investment, largely by Class 1 freight railroads, will increase eight percent to $12.6 billion this year from $11.6 billion. Increase in demand to transport goods, including shale and crude oil, as well as multi-modal improvements for better port-rail connections, are driving higher levels of railroad investment. Based on recent state and local government contract awards, these states will be moving forward on key projects: California, Colorado, Washington, D.C., Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas and Washington. The ARTBA forecast is based on a proprietary econometric model and analysis of federal, state and local data and market intelligence. For more information, visit www.artba.org.

and NAPA will stand by the senator as she works to address the historic shortfall in revenues the Highway Trust Fund faces in fiscal year 2015.” According to the Congressional Budget Office, the Highway Trust Fund lacks sufficient funds to meet its obligations, which has resulted in steadily accumulating shortfalls. Under current projections, no federal funds will be available for state infrastructure or transportation projects in fiscal year 2015. Boxer has noted that this would jeopardize almost 3 million jobs nationwide. The award was presented to Boxer during NAPA’s Asphalt Fly-In, which brought asphalt producers, paving contractors and road builders to Capitol Hill to discuss infrastructure funding with their members of Congress, as well as to educate them about sustainability efforts by the asphalt pavement industry that preserve natural resources and save taxpayers money. For example, the use of reclaimed asphalt pavement and recycled asphalt shingles in 2011 eliminated the need for more than 21 million barrels of asphalt cement, saving taxpayers some $2.2 billion.

Ritchie Bros. Appoints Briscoe AED Enters New Chapter With as Board Deputy Chairperson Renewed Energy, Says Chairman Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers Incorporated appointed Beverley Anne Briscoe as deputy chairperson of the company’s board of directors, effective Sept. 23, 2013. Briscoe joined the company as a director in October 2004 and has served as a member of the nominating and corporate governance and audit committees, most recently as chair of the audit committee. Briscoe’s appointment to deputy chairperson marks a transitional step for the board in preparation for the anticipated retirement of Robert Murdoch, the board’s current chairman. Murdoch is approaching the mandatory retirement age prescribed by the company’s corporate governance guidelines, and has thus indicated that he will not be standing for re-election at the company’s annual meeting in 2014. It is expected that Briscoe will be appointed as the successor chairperson in the event she is re-elected as a director at the 2014 annual meeting. Briscoe brings to the position a wealth of experience in finance and operations from a

number of industries including the heavy equipment and transportation sectors. Briscoe is a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants, a Fellow of the Institute of Corporate Directors and has a Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of British Columbia. She currently serves as a director (including as chair of the audit committee and member of the environmental health and safety committee) of Goldcorp Inc. a public gold and precious metals company. “I am delighted to welcome Bev to this new role,” said Murdoch, “Bev brings a wealth of governance expertise and industry experience to the position and has been invaluable to the company in her role as director since 2005. I look forward to supporting her transition to chair.” For more information, visit rbauction.com.

services for industry, according to the association. “We are about to enter a new chapter of AED with renewed energy,” said AED 2013 Chairman Mike Quirk, who is vice president of Operations at Wagner Equipment Co., the Caterpillar dealer based in the Denver, Colo., metropolitan area. “Brian is an association professional whose experience and talents are a wonderful match with the member needs of AED — we’re truly excited to welcome him aboard, and we’re looking forward to moving in an innovative, serviceoriented direction under his leadership.” McGuire is the former senior regional manager of Illinois and Wisconsin for the National Association of Manufacturers, which is based in Washington, D.C. He also has worked for a combined eight years for Illinois’ State Sen. Steve Rauschenberger, as both a political consultant and chief of state. Focused on civic duty, McGuire is the top

elected officer of his community, serving as Hanover Township town supervisor for 99,000 residents and responsible for a treasury of $12 million. He’s also a 20-year veteran volunteer firefighter who retired as captain in 2008. “I’m looking forward to getting acquainted with all of AED’s constituencies — dealer members, manufacturers and industry service suppliers, as well as the professionals who comprise the AED staff in Oak Brook,” said McGuire. “Together, we’re going to continue the mission of providing outstanding resources to support distributor profitability, and we’ll identify new approaches for ensuring the future strength of the dealer model in the construction equipment industry.” For more information, visit www.aednet.org.

Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers Announces Trouble Finding Total Net Earnings for Third Quarter Qualified Help? Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers Incorporated announced net earnings for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2013, of $16.4 million, or $0.15 per diluted share. This compares to net earnings of $8.2 million, or $0.08 per diluted share for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2012, representing a 101 percent increase in net earnings. The company generated adjusted net earnings of $16.0 million, or $0.15 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2013. This compares to adjusted net earnings of $9.7 million, or $0.09 per diluted share in the same quarter last year, representing a 65 percent increase. Adjusted net earnings, a nonGAAP measure, excludes the after-tax effects of excess property sales and other non-recurring items. The company’s auction revenues for the third quarter of 2013 grew 15 percent to $105.8 million compared to $92.3 million for the same period in 2012. For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2013, net earnings were $60.5 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, and adjusted net earnings were $60.1 million, or $0.56 per diluted share. This compares to net earnings of $57.4 million, or $0.54 per diluted share, and adjusted net earnings of $60.2 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2012. This represents a 1 percent decrease in adjusted net earnings. The company’s auction revenues during the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2013, grew 5 percent to $336.2 million compared to $320.8 million for the same period in 2012. During the third quarter of 2013, the company conducted 58 unreserved industrial auctions in 15 countries throughout North America, Central America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Australia. Commenting on the performance of the Company, Peter Blake, CEO of Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers said: “I am proud of our third quarter results and the great work of our teams worldwide. Our focus remains squarely on growing revenue. The strong performance of our underwritten business

helped to bolster our auction revenue rate to its highest level ever, driving meaningful revenue and earnings growth this quarter. We’re also pleased with the progress of our new territory managers, who have been aided by ongoing training and new sales support tools. These developments, along with signals of a stronger market and supply environment reinforce our belief that the company is very well positioned for growth.” Quarterly Dividend The company also announced the declaration of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.13 per common share payable on December 13, 2013 to shareholders of record as of Nov. 22, 2013. Gross Auction Proceeds and Auction Revenues Gross auction proceeds were $789.6 million during the third quarter of 2013, a 7 percent decrease compared to the same period in 2012. This decline was due primarily to the timing of auctions and a large one-time consignment that occurred in the comparable period last year. EquipmentOne and other online marketplaces contributed $20.1 million to gross auction proceeds in the third quarter of 2013 compared to $20.5 million in the same period of 2012. Gross auction proceeds is a non-GAAP financial measure and is defined below. For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2013, gross auction proceeds was $2.7 billion, which is 7 percent lower than in the same period of 2012. EquipmentOne and other online marketplaces contributed $65.6 million to gross auction proceeds in the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2013, compared to $37.4 million in the same period of 2012. The company’s auction revenue rate (“ARR”, or auction revenues as a percentage of gross auction proceeds) during the third quarter of 2013 was 13.40 percent, significantly higher than the 10.88 percent ARR achieved in the same period in 2012. The com-

pany’s ARR was 12.41 percent during the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2013, compared to 11.03 percent in the same period in 2012. Revenue growth in both the three- and nine months ended Sept. 30, 2013, was primarily due to an increased ARR. The improvement in ARR is consistent with our strategic focus on managing the performance of our “at risk” (or underwritten) business. The company’s “at risk” business, which is comprised of guarantee and purchase contracts, represented 29 percent of Gross Auction Proceeds in the third quarter 2013 as compared to 34 percent in the third quarter 2012. The “at risk” business represented 26 percent of gross auction proceeds for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2013, as compared to 33 percent in the same period of 2012. Online Bidding Statistics Ritchie Bros. sold more than $987 million of equipment, trucks and other assets to online buyers during the first nine months of 2013, representing 36 percent of gross auction proceeds. Internet bidders continued to comprise over 50 percent of the total bidder registrations at Ritchie Bros. industrial auctions in the third quarter of 2013. Web Site Statistics The Ritchie Bros. Web site (rbauction.com), which is a gateway to its online bidding system and showcases upcoming auctions and equipment to be sold, attracted approximately 4.7 million unique visitors in the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2013, a 15 percent increase compared to the same period in 2012.

You’re Not Alone Nearly three-fourths of construction firms across the country report they are having trouble finding qualified craft workers to fill key spots amid concerns that labor shortages will only get worse, according to the results of an industrywide survey released by the Associated General Contractors of America. Association officials called for immigration and education reform measures to help avoid worker shortages. “Many construction firms are already having a hard time finding qualified workers and expect construction labor shortages will only get worse,” said Stephen E. Sandherr, chief executive officer of the Associated General Contractors of America. “We need to take short- and long-term steps to make sure there are enough workers to meet future demand and avoid the costly construction delays that would come with labor shortages.” Of the 74 percent of responding firms that are having a hard time finding qualified craft workers, the most frequently reported difficulties are in filling such onsite construction jobs as carpenters, equipment operators and laborers, Sandherr said. Fifty-three percent are having a hard time filling professional positions — especially project supervisors, estimators and engineers. The association official added that most firms expect labor shortages will continue and get worse for the next year. Eighty-six percent of respondents said they expect it will remain difficult or get harder to find qualified craft workers while 72 percent say the market for professional positions will remain hard or get worse. Seventy-four percent of respondents report there are not enough qualified craft workers available to meet future demand while 49 percent said there weren’t enough construction professionals available, he added. Sandherr said that many firms report they are taking steps to prepare future construction workers. He noted that 48 percent of responding firms are mentoring future craft workers, 38 percent are participating in career fairs and 33 percent are supporting high school-level construction skills academies. In addition, 47 percent of responding firms are offering internships for construction professionals. Sandherr cautioned that more needs to be done to address labor shortages. He said Congress needs to jettison arbitrary caps on construction workers that were included in immigration reform the Senate passed earlier this year. “Lifting those restrictions will go a long way to ensuring construction jobs left vacant by domestic labor shortages go to workers who are in the country legally.” He urged elected and appointed officials to do more to ensure public school students have an opportunity to participate in programs that teach skills like construction. He added that skills-based programs offer students a more hands-on way to learn vital 21st century skills such as math and science. Such programs also have been proven to reduce dropout rates and give students an opportunity to earn the higher pay and benefits that come with construction jobs. Sandherr added that nearly 700 construction firms participated in the survey, which was conducted during July and August of this year.
