Pain at the Pump: Price Disparities Explained By Lori Lovely CEG CORRESPONDENT
Carolina CAT Hosts Landscape Workshop…6
With fuel prices once again on the rise, there is a noticeable disparity in cost from one region to the next, leaving many consumers wondering why. Several factors affect the price of
gas everywhere, including demand, supply and supply disruptions, which, in turn, can be affected by events such as hurricanes and politics, distance from the supply source, competition and federal emissions standards — or even higher environmental standards in some regions, which require spe-
cific refining, distribution and storage, all of which add to the cost. Environmental programs often require reformulated gasoline that contains additives to reduce pollutants. Approximately one-third of the gasoline sold in the United States is reformulated. This creates “gasoline market islands,” accord-
ing to John Cook, director of the petroleum division of the Department of Energy’s Energy Information Administration. Because the clean-burning requirements in these islands are unique, few refineries can supply them, leading to the possibility of higher see PUMP page 20

The first time the crew set the tower. Note that the “work platforms” were not designed yet, this was the view that was used to come up with the work platform idea, actually staring at the tower and trying to figure out where to place the workers.
Pirates once hid on Bald Head Island, the state’s southern-most barrier island — technically part of the larger Smith Island — accessible only by a 20-minute ferry ride across the Cape Fear River from Southport, N.C. Now renowned as one of the country’s favorite car-free destinations see BRIDGE page 52

Rock Hill, S.C.’s, Catawba River Bridge on U.S. Highway 21 has served communities in the area well for more than 65 years. But this span over the Catawba, though it’s been a benefit to generations of motorists, also had outlived its usefulness. It has been found to be structurally deficient and functionally obsolete
based on inspection criteria, according to David Rister, interim bridge construction engineer with South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT). The existing bridge is a two-lane structure, which is being replaced with a five-lane structure. The new bridge is 1,000 ft. (305 m) in length and the existing structure is 970 ft. (295 m) long. The new structure will have bike lanes see CATAWBA page 22
Deck level construction was implemented in order to minimize heavy equipment on the island and to preserve the sensitive environment surrounding the project. This one Volvo backhoe, shown working on the pile driving, was the one heavy machine used.

Carolina CAT Hosts Landscape Management Workshop By Cindy Riley CEG CORRESPONDENT
Carolina CAT and the North Carolina Nursery and Landscaping Association (NCNLA) hosted a Landscape Management Workshop in February, which offered participants the opportunity to learn how to make the most of their landscape business. The twoday event, held at Carolina CAT’s facility in Charlotte, N.C., was designed to give landscape contractors and nursery managers the guidance and know-how they need to optimize their business operations, become more sustainable and as a result, more successful. “Every contractor should start their year with a plan for profit, not just a hope,” explained Mike Lysecki, director, Landscape Management Network. “This plan is a simple operating budget which guides the owner to set profitable goals for sales and expenses. In just a few hours, owners are seeing problems that have escaped them for years. Based on this profitable plan, we’ll also show them how to create their own pricing system, customized for their own numbers, that recovers their costs, their overhead and returns a fair profit. Far too many contractors work all year — and they work hard — only to hope there’s profit left at the end of the year. There’s no reason to just hope when it’s so simple to build a plan to improve your success rate.” Lysecki said that using their budget, every business can calculate exactly what it needs to charge for work, including rates for its crews and equipment, and markups for materials and subcontractors. “Your budget starts with your direct costs — your labor, equipment, materials and subs, then your overhead costs. Once you have a profitable plan, you use your overhead budget to calculate how to price your jobs to cover your company’s costs and overhead — then you add profit. When you use a pricing system, any contractor can put their plan for profit into action, even if the owner itself isn’t pricing the work. Price your jobs following your system, hit your sales goals and manage your spending and your budget becomes reality. It’s a planning tool that enables

contractors to better manage and control their businesses with real numbers instead of gut feelings and emotions.” Carolina CAT Construction Sales Manager, Mike Tropsha, explained, “We were delighted to host this event, and are very proud of our partnership with the landscape and nursery industries. We believe the concepts presented in the seminar will improve our customers’ efficiency, help them understand and manage costs and ultimately provide them with a competitive advantage. We are determined to ensure our customers’ success by being a trusted partner, and are proud to be associated with an event that we believe will help our customers set themselves apart.” According to Lysecki, prices are dropping, customers are shopping around more and the number of competitors is growing. “The landscape industry, in particular, has low barriers to entry. Many laid off tradespersons in other sectors go on to start landscape businesses. To survive, and thrive, in this kind of competitive environment, you need to know exactly what your break-even is on every job. Far too many contractors price jobs based on history or instinct, without knowing for certain whether they’re actually making any money on the job. Then, to make things worse, their employees start working on the job without any goals to know whether the work is getting done on time and on budget. The quality of your business, and the quality of your
life, improves dramatically when you can take control — when you know exactly when you’re making money, when you’re breaking even, and when its best to just walk away. Your budget is the ultimate system to help you read and react to changing economies, customers or competitors. With so many businesses operating without a budget, companies that understand how to use one enjoy an enormous competitive advantage.” Lysecki said that local Caterpillar dealers, such as Carolina CAT, in partnership with state and national landscape associations sponsor most workshops. “Every company uses a laptop and a web app so that creating a budget is simple. Each individual brings their own business numbers, they’re given a preparation package ahead of time, so that we work in reality. We’re not just talking about what they ‘should’ be doing, we’re actually doing it with them. The instructors are contractors who guide attendees through the entire process from start to finish in two days. You finish your budget the first day. The second day you learn how to use your budget to create a pricing system, make informed decisions, motivate staff by paying-for-productivity and to monitor your company’s progress month-to-month. “Having dealers like Carolina CAT host the workshop is a huge benefit to us and to the attendees,” Lysecki continued. “Not only do they minimize the costs for attendees, but they also inject some fun into the two days. We break from

number crunching to clear our heads outside — Carolina CAT organized a skid steer obstacle course and several excavator dexterity challenges to get everyone up and moving again. Everyone from seasoned operators to bookkeepers took part and it was great fun. “The workshops have been directed to the landscape industry, but contractors of all types have attended. If you’re in a service or contracting industry, then it doesn’t matter what service you’re providing — the budget and pricing systems are the same. The industry’s reaction has been almost overwhelming. We’ve done well over 100 workshops across North America and word-of-mouth is spreading fast. For most business owners, it’s the first time their company’s numbers have been broken down and explained to them in way that’s actually meaningful and, most importantly, useful to their business. Owners in this
industry most often get into the business because they loved the industry and they were really good at doing the work. They are great at their trade, and can think on their feet, but most never went to school to learn how to operate a business. It’s really a unique and long-awaited opportunity for so many that attend,” Lysecki said. “Landscaping is so much more than cutting lawns. It’s an extremely challenging field.” added Lysecki. “Our company, TBG Landscape, focuses on designbuild projects, so it’s impossible to get bored. Every project is different and brings new challenges. In the same day, our crews will install 4inch annuals by hand, then 40-foot trees with cranes and spades. We create stunning outdoor environments including trees and plants, steel structures, pools, custom carpentry, outdoor lighting and natural stone.

In the JCB theater, George Chaney (L), and Larry Ashley (R), introduced the new small platform JCB machines. Worldwide skid steer and compact track loader product manager, Ashby Graham, stepped into the discussion to tout the diverse range of JCB attachments.
The smallest small platform track machine, the JCB 150T, makes easy work of digging for a fence pole with a JCB auger attachment.
The JCB 155 skid steer loader works very well with the JCB trencher attachment.
JCB Hosts ‘Skid Steer Revolution’ at Its Headquarters in Savannah
J
CB dealers and guests converged on the North American Headquarters of JCB, Savannah, Ga., on March 7 for “The Skid Steer Revolution.” In all, 33 countries were represented at this event which was the official unveiling of the new generation of small platform skid steer and compact track loaders completely designed, developed, engineered and manufactured in North America for global distribution. Deputy Chairman of the JCB The smallest of the new generation small platform machines, the Group, John Patterson, stated, “The JCB 135 skid steer loader is quite a work horse equipped with a JCB 6-in-1 bucket. Enjoying the day’s events (L-R) are Brad Hargrave, JCB district sales; Gayle Humphries, JCB of Georgia; Brian Detrich, MH JCB, Louisville, Ky.; Oscar Lobo, Metamerica, Venezuela; Adam Sharpe and Rick Piper, also of JCB of Georgia.
Attendees boarded trolley car buses to see stations set up on the grounds of the JCB headquarters to view working applications of the entire line of new generation JCB skid steer, compact track loaders and attachments
Having a few laughs are (front to back), Billy Wall and Steve Strenck, Dougherty JCB, Greenville, N.C., and Charleston, S.C.; Arjun Mirdha, JCB executive vice president, sales and marketing; Jason Watson, Florida Coast Equipment, Boynton Beach, Fla; and Dan Schmitt, JCB regional vice president.
Skid Steer Revolution represents a significant investment for JCB in both product development and manufacturing technology.” The small platform machines include the 135, 155, 175, 190 and 205 model skid steer loaders and the 150T, 190T and 205T compact track loaders, ranging from 1,350 lb. (612 kg) capacity up to 2,050 lb. (930 kg) capacity machines. With the nine large platform machines that were introduced last year, the total range of skid steer and compact track loaders is 17 models and “the complete range” as stated by Patterson. This event was the completion of what was started just over one year ago. During the opening presentation, Arjun Mirdha, JCB’s executive vice president of sales and marketsee JCB page 64

we’re doing and see it as such a good, positive thing for everyone. So many jobs could be created by supporting and seeing money get directed towards the infrastructure jobs we need. “We need to make the decision makers and politicians know where funding needs to go. Plus, you’re never going to hear anyone vote for more potholes.” The Road Connection is a nationwide initiative to high-
light the need for increased road and infrastructure funding. Since roads and bridges are essential to everyone, participants in the Road Connection range from leading manufacturers to industry organizations to media members to consumer groups. For more information, visit www.theroadconnection.org.

Crude Oil Acquisition Costs Single Largest Price Factor PUMP from page 1
prices in certain markets, due to demand or the potential for supply interruptions. Don’t Be Crude Crude oil acquisition costs are the single biggest driver impacting gas prices, according to Tim Hess, analyst of the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Although the United States is the world’s third-largest producer of crude oil, it imported 13 million barrels of oil and petroleum products per day in July 2008. Typically, the farther the point of purchase is from the source of the supply, the higher the cost. Sixtytwo percent of the crude oil processed by U.S. refineries in 2010 was imported. About 26 percent of that was brought in by ocean tanker through the Gulf Coast. The Midwest and the smaller Rocky Mountains market, which rely on inland crude mostly from Canada, enjoy lower gas prices than eastern regions that depend on
more expensive coastal and imported crude. “Due to rapid growth of oil production, North Dakota is a new major production center in the U.S.,” Hess said. However, because production came on so quickly, it has outpaced construction of infrastructure to transport it to other regions. “There’s no pipeline from North Dakota or the Rockies to the west coast because there wasn’t sufficient production in the past to justify one,” Hess elaborated. Without a pipeline, it can be shipped only by rail or truck. But, he added, infrastructure is catching up. Until it does, transportation constraints and increasing production have resulted in discounted crude in this region over the past year. While refineries paid $3 less per barrel than average prior to 2011, last year the difference rose to $14 per barrel. In November, the most recent month the EIA has provided data for, the difference was $16 per barrel. According to the EIA, East
Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration, Weekly Retail Gasoline and Diesel Prices.
Coast refiners paid $22 more per barrel of crude than Midwest refiners in late 2011. Lower crude oil costs in the Rockies resulted in lower gas prices. Gas prices in the Rocky Mountain region fell between Thanksgiving 2011 and the end of January 2012, while prices in other parts of the country rose. “On January 30, 2012, average gasoline prices in the Rockies were 41 cents below the U.S. average, which was a record for the region since EIA began tracking regional
retail price data in 1992,” EIA reported. Even after a “heavy September refinery maintenance schedule,” according to EIA, gross inputs to Rocky Mountain refineries were 4 percent above average during the last three months of 2011. The increase in refinery inputs has continued this year, averaging 10 percent above fiveyear averages in January 2012. This has kept inventory 12 percent higher than average. In contrast, East Coast refinery inputs dipped 41 percent below
average. The HOVENSA jointventure refinery located in the U.S. Virgin Islands, a major source of product supply, was closed on Jan. 18, Hess reported. A planned closure, it follows the idling of two other refineries in the Delaware Valley by Sunoco and ConocoPhillips. When Sunoco idles an additional refinery in the region by mid-2012, it will collectively cut up to 50 percent of refining capacity in the East Coast region. “No refinery wants to close,” Hess said, explaining that idling a refinery only helps its competitors. “There’s an incentive not to shut down because they have long-term contracts that have to be filled. If they’re not operating, they have to buy crude from another refinery.” However, because many of the less sophisticated East Coast refineries rely on heavier crude imported from Africa, they can’t produce quality product for the same cost. Crude is classified as light or see PUMP page 50

and wide, safe sidewalks for pedestrians — unlike the older bridge. This is a sizable project, according to Rister. Though there was a clear need for a new, more reliable structure at this location, what was definitely unclear was exactly how best to proceed with the construction of a new bridge. This stretch of the Catawba River is quite shallow in parts, according to Troy Carter, REA Contracting project manager. “One side is extremely shallow,” said Carter. “During the autumn, a barge could be in between floating and not floating; some days you can float equipment and some days you can’t. The riverbed rock also is very hard. The drilling contractor was able to cut through the rock with their rock core barrel and excavate down into the rock, proceeding at one foot an hour or less. “Early on in the project, we installed drill tap casings and the columns rising up out of the water. Doing that work required floating barges and dealing with the permitting issues involved with the Army Corps of Engineers; those were among the major challenges on the job. The next phase of the project involved the installation of the bridge’s eleven 60-ton girders, which would span the

river. This work would be problematic using barge-mounted cranes. As a result, we searched for some alternate method of placing girders on the job.” The new span required eleven girders to be put in place; some needed to be placed nearly 100 ft. (30.5 m) away from the existing bridge. There were basically two options for lifting each of the girders: the first involved lifting the beams off the existing bridge and moving them into place by crane and the second was to come up with some crane-less, in-place system using the existing bridge structure completely. With the first method, using cranes to position the girders, at some point it becomes impossible to reach the position where the girder needs to be and the beam will to have be set down before a crane picks it back up to move it around again. But moving cranes around with such a shallow, rocky bed on the river is a risky proposition, according to Carter. Also, with the river at this point, there is no way to block the entire river without receiving a variance from the Army Corps of Engineers. “With this river being only partially floatable for the barges and unable to float on the side where rocks are just below the surface, that pointed us in the direction of finding a safer situation for performing this work,” said Carter. “If we float a barge down and it’s not perfectly level or just out of level — there is
only a small amount allowable for it to be out of level — that puts you in a tricky situation with your cranes. If you aren’t sure if your barges are floating, but instead are sitting on the bottom of the riverbed, it can make the lifting of girders by the cranes problematic. We could have used cranes in that situation. But they would have been a pair of massive 150-ton plus sized cranes to move the girders into place. “The second system — the one we ended up using — was much safer overall,” Carter explained. “We haven’t done anything like this before; I’m not at liberty to discuss the cost savings, but the increased safety using this method clearly makes this a much better fit.” The present job does have two cranes, a 100-ton (90 t) crane and a 50-ton (45 t) crane at the bottom of the work site. One of these is situated on the side of the river that they use to move frames to the next position. The other is on the opposite shore. These are much lighter cranes than those that would have been used if the beams were lifted using cranes on river barges. REA Contracting had to receive permission from the dam upstream, owned by Duke Power. Duke Power operates the water control level in Lake Wylie as they generate power. They also regulate the height of the water in the lake. In order for REA Contracting to move its barges it had to get Duke Power to open up a couple of gates in see CATAWBA page 48

Loftness Introduces Carbide Cutter G3 Mulching Head As part of its VMLogix line of products, Loftness introduced the carbide cutter G3 high-performance mulching head attachment for skid steers. The Carbide Cutter G3 is available with 51-, 61- and 71-in. (129, 155 and 180 cm) cutting widths. All models are offered with a variety of carbide-tipped and heattreated steel teeth to match any job application. The precisely engineered spiral tooth pattern on the rotor ensures continuous tooth contact with the material being cut, according to the manufacturer. For maximum cutting performance, the carbide cutter G3 features a two-stage cutting chamber with staggered counter teeth and a shear bar. This combination of features results in small particle sizes, while eliminating jamming and wrapping issues. An optional primarystage shear bar also is available for ultra-fine mulching.
The Carbide Cutter G3 is available with 51-, 61- and 71-in. (129, 155 and 180 cm) cutting widths. All models are offered with a variety of carbide-tipped and heat-treated steel teeth.
The mulching heads operate at 1,700 to 2,150 rpm and feature a four-groove banded belt drive with spring-loaded tensioner. They come standard with a fixed-displacement, piston-style motor that delivers hydraulic power at 97-percent efficiency, which is much higher than traditional gear-type motors offer. The fixed-displacement motor can be upgraded to the V-Drive system that includes a variable-displacement motor with load-sensing technology. Under light loads, the V-Drive system operates at maximum rpm, and as the load increases, it automatically lowers the rotor rpm to maximize torque. The mulching head offers full rotation, due to specially designed hose routing. This feature also allows the unit to easily position trees with the adjustable push bar and welded claw hooks. The push bar can be used to push falling
brush and trees away from the power unit, and the claw hooks can pull material into position for proper feeding. Hydraulic push bar adjustment is optional. The carbide cutter G3 also is designed for maximum durability. For instance, high-strength Hardox steel is used in areas exposed to high wear. Furthermore, the carbide cutter G3 is equipped with a custom hydraulic control valve that protects the unit from pressure spikes, and it also stops the rotor quickly on shut-down without damaging the components, according to the manufacturer. Other standard features include an on-board pressure gauge, steel deflector chains and adjustable skid shoes. Tooth options include standard carbide teeth, planer carbide teeth and Quadco planer blades. For more information, call or visit www.vm-logix.com.
Greater Versatility Offered in General Equipment Company’s DIG-R-TACH Series
Featuring a two-speed chain/sprocket drive and a 5 to 20 gpm (19 to 75.7 Lpm) hydraulic flow range, the Series 16 balances smaller flow volumes in proportion to auger diameters.
For greater job site versatility, General Equipment Company’s DIG-R-TACH line allows for use with both small and large hydraulic systems. Ideal for skid steer loaders, small excavators, knuckleboom cranes and small backhoes, the 671 DIG-R-TACH Series 16 earth drilling attachment is intended for smaller hydraulic systems, whereas the Series 24 is designed for larger hydraulic systems found with backhoes and excavators. Featuring a two-speed chain/sprocket drive and a 5 to 20 gpm (19 to 75.7 Lpm) hydraulic
flow range, the Series 16 balances smaller flow volumes in proportion to auger diameters. The result is a cleaner hole with less loose soil and debris. For higher capacity drilling, the Series 24 operates in a 15 to 25 gpm (56 to 95 Lpm) hydraulic flow range and delivers a maximum drilling torque of 2,018 ft.-lbs. at 2,500 psi. General Equipment Company’s 671 DIG-R-TACH series utilizes a drilling industry standard 2-in. (5 cm) hexagon auger drive system. This design eliminates excessive auger driveshaft wear. A complete
line of earth augers up to 36 in. (91 cm) in diameter is available with Pengo-type, cast-steel boring heads and forged teeth for maximum digging performance. For additional drilling depth, full-flighted auger extensions can be added. For those that prefer a round auger drive system, the 753 DIG-R-TACH series offers a 2 9/16-in. (6.5 cm) auger connection. Installation of all DIG-R-TACH models is simple with a dipper-stick mounting bracket. For more information, call 800/533-0524 or visit www.generalequip.com.

Anaconda Equipment Soon to Include Trommel Screens ANACONDA from page 33
Born of Irish Roots… The first portable screening plants were developed in Northern Ireland back in the 60’s, according to Eamon McMahon, president of Anaconda USA. “Portable screening plants first started to arrive from Ireland in the United States over 30 years ago,” McMahon said. “The products initially really took hold on the east coast of the United States. As operating costs began to rise, it became more cost effective for contractors to utilize portable screening and crushing units onsite to process material into finished product, as opposed to removing material off site. This led to significant growth in this industry as manufacturers introduced tracked equipment in the mid to late ’90s, demand for the mobile products continued to flourish. According to Forsyth, much of the world’s mobile crushing and

KRH1515 Impactor Plant Features Hazemag APPH Crusher Grasan’s largest road-portable impact crusher plant, the KRH1515, features the Hazemag APPH primary impact crusher with fully automatic, hydraulic cylinder system that provides increased crusher capacity (up to 600 tons [544 t] per hour), smoother operation and more uniform products. Crusher adjustments have been simplified so no tools are needed, according to the manufacturer. The crusher inlet is 45 in. (114 cm) high, 10 in. (25 cm) higher than previous models, to handle larger sizes of incoming concrete and asphalt rubble and C&D debris; and a hydraulic moveable inlet base helps clear jamming and bridging. The hydraulic inlet hood is secured with wedge pins for easy opening and closing. To reduce users’ spare parts inventories, side liners in the crusher have been reduced from seven shapes to three standardized shapes, and all multi-blocks have been made interchangeable. The feeder pan under the crusher discharges out the side for improved handling of wire mesh and rebar. A grizzly bypass chute makes it easy to reject or keep undersize material. A skid-on, skidoff hopper and six independent hydraulic support legs facilitate easy setup and tear down without a crane in about 30 minutes. Available in diesel or electric power. For more information, call 419/526-4440 or visit www.grasan.com.

New Bridge Over S.C.’s Catawba River Takes Shape CATAWBA from page 22
order to get enough water in the Catawba River so that the barges would float. Construction superintendent on the job, Emilio Valentin, is skilled in computer graphics, something he enjoys in his spare time. The talent he’s developed has come in handy with the sketch program that helped him assemble a detailed graphic series of steps for a presentation explaining how the bridge is being assembled for the power company so that it would understand why its help was needed with the controlled release of water upstream. Valentin also has encouraged his work crews both to use the computer to understand how the system is put together and to offer their advice and suggestions for streamlining the construction process, which they’ve done on occasion. “Impetus for assembling that presentation came when we had to give the power company a clear explanation and justification of why we needed them to open the gates,” said Carter. “They didn’t just do it, but needed to know why and we stayed in close contact with them. Emilio did a great job of pulling all of that together. I really have to give him credit for the PowerPoint production he constructed.” On one of the fall nights that U.S. 21 was shut down and traffic detoured to the nearby interstate, three semis on the north side of the river awaited word to proceed onto the bridge. When a truck received the signal, it pulled forward to the place where four crews of workers in work platforms on each side of the framework in place prepared to lift the beam off the truck’s trailer. Chain hoists were strapped onto steel loops embedded in the concrete at the two ends of the beam. The chains rattled through a system of chain winches as they slowly pulled the beam up and then over to place on the span where they were to be situated. The chain hoists were operated through both hand power and the running of small handheld drills spinning the long strands through the winches. Once the beam was moved into place above where it is to be lowered, the chains were again run through the winches in reverse. The beam then slowly but surely reached its final destination.
The process was noisy but amazingly quick and fairly effortless aside from a great deal of chain movement by those in the work platforms. At one point a chain snagged in the chain-winch equipment. Lubricant sprayed generously on the chain links quickly remedied the situation and work continued. When the last truck pulled away and the beam was in place parallel to all the others, work for the night was done. All this lifting of the huge bridge beam components was done without a single crane in sight. Though there are smaller cranes in each bank of the Catawba River, they have limited access to much of the work being done out over the main body of the river. The one frame used for placing the girders during construction always rolls forward on top of the girders that are already set until it eventually reaches land. Once on land, REA Contracting can use one of its cranes and assist with the girder erection, according to Valentin. A combination of one crane and one frame is used to set girders over land said Valentin. “The crane picks up the girder on one end while the frame picks up on the opposite end, as the crane travels with the girder attached, the frame trolley system follows keeping the girder parallel until the girder reaches the final location to be lowered. The frame has a barrier wall with counter weights sitting on it to keep it upright as it travels forward on the girders. Once work crews get to a point where they can move ahead, the bottom brackets are loosened and the whole thing rolls on the beams that they’ve set. It’s designed to actually roll on the beam; the whole framework stays together on the beam and then they pull it ahead with cables. “We wanted to use a system where there was no chance of an accident on the river bottom,” said Valentin. “We had to go ahead and be self-sufficient in the absence of no big equipment. Instead of huge equipment we went with the use of small come-alongs just to get things into position. With such a span as this, it is difficult to reach and maneuver things with cranes from one side to the other.” Cable-winches allow things to be
pulled ahead in increments. Relatively small winches were used. “We are moving around something that’s fairly heavy with a system which doesn’t take much to set it in motion,” added Valentin. “This one-half section in theory takes 3,000 pounds of pull to move it forward. You don’t need much to pull it. But we always put a little bit more in there just in case one comealong fails while you’re pulling, so you’re not stuck. Once that frame gets into position, then there is a piece on the bottom that we’ve got to tie up and secure the lifting equipment to.” Back on the ground below, a John Deere 225 track hoe mounted atop a barge maneuvered the barge by scratching on the bottom to pull itself around. When the equipment was in place, a man-lift was set up to assist on securing the lifting frame to the bridge substructure. A Manitowoc M-222 crane is on one side of the river for handling 100ton (91 t) loads. On the other side an M-150 works on the south side of the river handling up to 50-ton (45 t) loads. An LS-108 crane works up on top of the bridge. Coastal Casson was the bridge foundation contractor on the project. Performance Management Contracting, (PMC) is the grading contractor. The project is part of the normal 80-20 federal process involving bridge replacement dollars and the bid tab on this job is approximately $16,000,000; there were eleven bidders on the project. The job started in July of 2010 and the project is slated to be completed by the end of 2012. The bridge construction work has not really been affected by the overnight showers that have been prevalent in the area for the early months of fall 2011; however, the required grading work has been affected a bit more due to wet weather. “We tend to be able to work as long as the sun is out. But if the girders are wet, we don’t work,” added Carter. “That’s a risk we don’t want to take.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Redrawing the Map Shifts in regional crude acquisition costs are redrawing the U.S. refining map. “The ingrained supply chain is being turned on its head,” Hess said. “It’s an interesting time.” Because Midwest markets are pulling gasoline from the Gulf Coast, higher acquisition costs are driving the price of gasoline there, rather than Midwestern production costs. Meanwhile, in the Gulf Coast, refiners have been investing in increased conversion depth, allowing regional refineries to replace light crude with the less expensive heavy crudes. These upgrades, when completed, will affect the volume of light crude piped north. In addition, the reversal and later expansion of the Seaway pipeline could result in significant volumes of light crude being
shipped south from the Midwest to the Gulf Coast just when southern demand is down due to the local deep-conversion refinery expansions. As Hess reiterated, it’s acquisition costs that affect the price of gas more than anything else. “The local station isn’t really making a lot on gasoline; they make more on the candy bars they sell.” According to the U.S. Department of Energy, out of every dollar spent on gas, only 65 cents is applied to the cost of crude oil. Fourteen percent goes to refining, 13 percent to state and local taxes and 8 percent to distribution and marketing. Fluctuating acquisition costs and minimal margins are why local retailers are in constant contact with suppliers, Hess said. “The local stations are responding to rapidly changing market prices, which are volatile right now because of the changes in the supply chain and the cost of acquisition.” The discrepancies in these aspects from region to region create micro-economies that result in the divergence of gas prices.

New Timber Bridge to Link Parts of Bald Head Island BRIDGE from page 1
for tourists and millionaires, it’s a privately owned haven of vacation rentals and 1,200 private residences along 14 mi. of beach and 12,000 acres of maritime forest, tidal creeks and rolling dunes, located 65 mi. north of Myrtle Beach. Although no bridge connects it to the mainland, a new bridge will soon span portions of the island itself. York Bridge Concepts Inc., (YBC) the nation’s largest on-site timber vehicular bridge builder, based in Lutz, Fla., is expected to complete construction of a 520-ft. (158 m) timber bridge soon. The main purpose of the bridge is to provide a convenient path from the harbor to the residential area, allowing pedestrians to bypass the commercial corridor and service traffic. By separating golf cart and pedestrian traffic from the commercial-utilities corridor, the direct route will reduce congestion and increase safety. The two-way bridge connecting home sites to Harbour Village is part of a joint infrastructure improvement project by the Village of Bald Head Island and Bald Head Island Limited LLC, and includes improvements to roadways. Tim-ber! A properly maintained timber bridge can last more than 50 years. In addition to durability, this bridge will offer aesthetic appeal that correlates with the ambiance of the quiet, picturesque island that once played a role in two American wars and now serves as a vacation getaway where the only traffic is electric cart, bicycle or foot. YBC’s belief that every bridge should be a signature piece and add value and interest to a project makes their custom-designed pedestrian bridge an appropriate choice for Bald Head Island. “York Bridge Concepts is taking every step necessary to preserve the beauty and natural ecology of Bald Head Island,” stated James York, company president. “The bridge will complement and emphasize the natural beauty of the marshlands and the island.” Because the bridge crosses an environmentally sensitive marshland, it incorporates an arch from end to end. The bridge rises from the ends to the middle approximately 5 ft. (1.5 m) and features a radius that was meticulously followed in the field to achieve the beautiful arching profile. At its highest point in the center, the bridge is approximately 11 ft. (3.3 m) high. To take advantage of spectacular views, YBC’s design team created a low-profile 24in. (61 cm) guiderail for the cart section and a 42-in. (107 cm) timber rail with stainless steel wire cable handrails for the pedestrian

walkway. The two-way traffic bridge features a 5-ton (4.5 t) gross capacity. Of the island’s 12,000 acres, 10,000 (80 percent) will remain undeveloped and under the protection of an island conservancy. To address the environmental concerns of Bald Head Island, YBC implemented deck level construction, which eliminates the need for heavy equipment on the ground and minimizes potential damage to the environmentally sensitive marshlands. According to Jim Henry, director of planning and construction for BHI, they used only a Volvo back hoe. Deck-level construction, also referred to as top-down construction, is building from a platform or, in this case, from the bridge itself. “As much work as possible is done from the bridge, literally reducing the footprint of building the bridge,” Henry said. YBC’s building techniques will reduce the need for additional construction or bridge replacement which decreases the risk of damage to the environment and reduces the cost of bridge maintenance. The Long View Work began on December 15, 2011, after considerable delay. YBC has had the contract since 2006. “This project has literally been almost 10 years in the making, with our first contact being in 2005,” Henry stated. “Because Bald Head Island has had to deal with so many factors like state agencies, coastal permits and other environmental considerations, building something as major as a 520-foot bridge is a big deal. Once we had all of our approvals and permits (in 2008), the economy took a downturn. With a slight uplift in the economy, we were finally (in 2011) ready to have York Bridge Concepts build our one-of-a-kind timber bridge.” One complication resulting from the delay impacted the budget. “YBC met the foreseen budget set in 2006,” Henry said, “but because the wetlands had expanded over time, we were
faced with about 25 percent in overages due to the bridge being lengthened by 40 feet and the piling having to be driven deeper.” Unusual site conditions prompted extensive coordination. Arrangements had to be made to use barges to transport materials to the Island and accommodations had to be made for foot and cart traffic between the storage area and the bridge access The three-man team consists of the working foreman, point. master carpenter/lead man and carpenter.

All the lumber is either CCA- the cap, installing the stringers and blocking, or ACQ-treated, and either rough-sawn or installing the decking and fastening it down. smooth four-sided southern yellow pine. This process is repeated 52 times until the Bolts were galvanized or painted black. Wire end of the bridge is achieved. Once the entire for the pedestrian rails is stainless steel.

This three-man team consists of the tine: “just the standard of access” to both working foreman, master carpenter/lead sides, controlling the elevation hub near each man and carpenter. Working an average end of the bridge and center markers of the nine-hour day has helped keep this threebridge path. There were a few surprises month project on schedule. “I am extremely impressed with the proalong the way, however. As they started work on the bridge, utility lines necessitated fessionalism and craftsmanship from the use of longer pilings. YBC had to splice the York Bridge Concepts crew,” Henry reportpiling to a refusal depth lower than anticipat- ed. “Visitors and residents often comment on how quickly and precisely their high-quality ed, Henry explained. YBC drove all the pile foundations as the work is done.” The bridge is the talk of the town, Henry bridge was constructed, 10 ft. (3 m) of span concluded, “The bridge is a major deal on at a time.

In addition to online bidding through ProxiBid, this was the first sale utilizing ProxiBid’s Inspect Premier Services for pre-sale online videos, extensive photography and inspection reports. Ritchason representatives stated that this service equated to a higher participation level in the pre-bid process than ever before.

J.M. Wood Holds 39th Annual Spring Sale
M
ore than 2,300 registered on site and online bidders from around the world gathered at J.M. Wood’s 39th Annual Spring Montgomery, Ala., Auction to bid on the impressive line-up on display. The auction was highlighted by 85 (2012-2007) Mack, Kenworth and Peterbilt trucks, along with a very nice selection of county-owned Caterpillar 140M and 12M graders. The Internet accounted for more than $4,000,000 of the $27,563,000 in total sales and came in second countless times. Online bidders were registered from 31 states and 15 countries. Though the Internet auction was a huge success it was apparent by the huge crowds that most customers like to come down and kick the tires for themselves. “Equipment was sold and will be shipped to 17 countries,” said
Company President Brenda Wood. “These international buyers prefer having all the equipment in one central location, making it easier for prepping, containerizing and logistics for overseas shipping once they have made their purchases.” J.M. Wood’s next scheduled auction will be in Columbia, S.C., on April 25 and Sumter, S.C., on April 26. First time J.M.

Landscapers Learn How to Get the Most of Their Business SEMINAR from page 6
time.” As for some of the biggest challenges in 2012, Lysecki said they include “raising the professionalism in the industry — differentiating reputable, professional contractors from so-called ‘fly-bynight’ counterparts and utilizing some of the fast-emerging new technologies to allow contractors to work smarter and more productively. Price competition is a big sticking point in this industry, but no matter what your competition is charging, there’s room in every market for great companies. Our biggest enemy is often ourselves. If you can start with a plan for profit and eliminate wasted time lost to poor planning, poor preparation and poor execution, there’s room to compete on price and make a profit in any market.” said Lysecki. Danielle O’Neill, events coordinator for Landscape Management, added, “One of the biggest answers is to set specific goals and have policies, processes and procedures that employees can follow. When
goals are set and systems are in place, each person in the company is aware of their roles and responsibilities, and what needs to be done in order to achieve those goals. The owner’s expectations are common knowledge. Most contractors haven’t invested the time to create and implement systems in their workplace, and therefore, there’s nothing for their employees to follow. Employees are forced to lean on the owner for all the day-to-day problems and solutions, and an owner can only handle so much. When the owner is constantly putting out fires, he doesn’t have time to develop the business.” O’Neill said that another way to landscape more profitably is to take the time to hire the right candidate for the job, the first time around. “Many landscape contractors do not take the time nor do they have the resources to focus on a hiring process. When you take the time to find the best employee for the job early on in the season, it reduces

the cost, headaches and re-training due to turnover throughout the remainder of the year. “One of the biggest challenges is finding the right candidates early on in the season, and then developing and retaining those key employees throughout the year. As most landscaping is a seasonal business, the industry tends to see high turnover rates, but through training and development and an attractive incentive program, we
strive to maintain key employees all year ’round,” O’Neill concluded. Since 1926, Carolina CAT has been committed to the needs of its customers by providing superior parts, service and sales. Operating in eight locations throughout western North Carolina, Carolina CAT serves the construction, forestry, truck engine and power generation industries providing new, used and rental
services. Seeing the value in the Landscape Management Workshop, Carolina CAT is considering another workshop later this spring. Added Lysecki, “Whether you build or maintain landscapes, you’re creating an environment that your customer, and the general public, can enjoy for generations. It’s your “gift to the street” as a landscape architect so brilliantly summed up our industry. The challenge for landscape contractors is to create these gifts in win-win environment which rewards their customers, staff and themselves as owners. It’s not common in this industry to find companies who pull it all together. But a little business education goes a long way, and the letters and emails we get one and two years after the workshop prove that it can, and does, happen.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Quarry, road-building, and mass-excavation work demand serious iron. With more arm digging force, bucket digging force, and hydraulic flow, 670G LC and 870G LC Excavators deliver increased productivity. So you’ll get more done per gallon of fuel. Their rugged EPA Interim Tier 4/EU Stage IIIB diesels enable you to work, wherever the work, even in nonattainment areas. These, plus numerous other customerinspired refinements – including an even more spacious cab and an enhanced multifunction LCD monitor with simplified navigation – to help your operator make the most of every day.
