When Rick Mixson, vice-president of Landmark Construction Company first took a look at the Volvo plant project near Charleston, S.C., he figured the company would need to bid about $35 million to do the site preparation for the 726-acre project.

If fully built out, the Desert Wind Power Project could deploy 150 wind turbines that would generate 300 megawatts of power at full capacity, and provide millions of dollars in tax and landowner revenue for years to come. “We started developing this project in 2009, so it’s incredibly rewarding to see the construction progress we’ve made since breaking ground last summer,” said Paul Copleman, communications manager, Iberdrola Renewables. “Wind turbine foundation construction is slated to begin in the next few weeks, so that will be an important step forward as we work toward

Construction Firms Add 37,000 Jobs in March Construction employment rose sharply in March by 37,000 for the month and 301,000 for the year, while construction spending in February logged a solid year-over-year increase despite a dip compared with January, according to an analysis by the Associated General Contractors of

America. Association officials said the new jobs and spending indicate that the industry is steadily expanding to meet growing demand. “These two reports confirm that demand for construction is robust and well-balanced among residential, private nonresidential and public

segments," said Ken Simonson, the association’s chief economist. "Compared with the same month a year ago, the industry is adding workers at more than double the rate of the overall economy, and construction spending continsee AGC page 84

World of Asphalt, AGG1 Shows Deliver Record Numbers

T

he 2016 World of Asphalt Show & Conference and AGG1 Academy & Expo concluded as the most successful ever, with record attendance, exhibit and education numbers. The co-located shows, held March 22 to 24, were at the Music City Center in Nashville, Tenn. Record registered attendance of more than 9,000 was 18 percent over the record-setting 2015 shows and 38 percent growth compared with 2013. Attendees came from all 50 states, nine of the 10 Canadian provinces and more than 60 other countries worldwide; 30 percent were compaDennis Slater, president of the Association of Equipment ny presidents/owners, vice presiManufacturers (AEM), speaks to the crowd before the offi- dents, general managers or chief financial officers, and all together 87 cial ribbon cutting and opening of the exhibit hall. percent were in managerial roles. “This truly is the global gathering place for our aggregates and asphalt industries, where attendees could easily find the equipment and products to help their businesses grow

and prosper,” said Rick Feltes of LafargeHolcim, AGG1 chair representing the National Stone, Sand and Gravel Association (NSSGA). “Education is also critical to stay competitive in today’s marketplace, and our record education ticket numbers underscore the value attendees place on the shows’ programs to help them succeed,” Feltes said. “This was such an incredible opportunity to connect with so many fellow industry professionals in one place, to discuss common challenges, and learn how others have tackled similar problems,” said Rick Moore of Lehman-Roberts Company, World of Asphalt chair representing the National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA). “There’s a real anticipation for what’s ahead; attendees know there will be bumps, but they know this is where they find the focused education and tools to make the right choices for their companies,” Moore said.

Exhibits and Education The sold-out show floor covered a record 157,000-plus net sq. ft. of exhibit space — a 16 percent increase over the 2015 shows, with a record 500-plus exhibitors, including 150 new to the shows. Leading manufacturers and suppliers, from large multinationals with multiple product lines to smaller firms with niche products, showcased their latest products and technologies. Industry-driven education programs achieved record ticket sales of more than 13,000. Attendees could take advantage of more than 115 education sessions, including the signature AGG1 Academy from NSSGA and the People, Plants and Paving Training Program from NAPA. The American Road and Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) contributed education sessions, and NSSGA also offered workshops on strategic sales training see WOA page 12

Located just inside the main entrance to the exhibit hall, the Wirtgen Group display was prominently positioned and ready to accommodate large crowds at World of Asphalt. Sergio Solis (L) of Bomag and Bob Joynt, Finkbiner Equipment Co. stand in front of the Bomag BM1200-35 milling machine.

Thursday morning, Caterpillar opened its doors for the first time to its Peoria Proving Grounds facility. Guests were led to temperature-controlled demonstration area. Cameras were not allowed in the facility, but guests were allowed to view and test two machines — the Cat MH3295 material handler Denise Johnson, the newly named group president of resource industries, takes a brief moment from her and the Cat 637K tractor busy schedule to welcome members of the press to the scraper. These models have The Cat 918M compact wheel loader. Service points of the Cat 918M are grouped Edwards Demonstration and Learning Center. been tested in this facility, together in one location. tested in the field with contractors and are now set to go into production. Later, attendees were welcomed to the Edwards Demonstration and Learning Center. Operators demonstrated several machines, including the Cat 918M, Cat 308E2, Cat 730C2 and in particular, the new Cat 304.5E2 XTC. Cat representatives emphasized the release of this new innovative machine as the first model in the Xtra Tool Carrier (XTC) lineup. The machine has an innovative skid steer coupler interface for added versatility and work tool integration. This manual coupler allows for use of compact loader tools including: general-purpose bucket, multi-purpose bucket, forks, dozer blade, brooms, power box rakes and trenchers. Coupler operation is controlled through a flick of the XTC switch on the right hand console in the operator station, and then the standard right hand joystick then becomes your loader. Cat representatives are very excited about the release of this new machine.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) Gov. John Bel Edwards wants to rework the state construction budget in an unusual way for a Louisiana governor, giving himself less ability to use projects to trade for votes. The Democratic governor said he intends to steer more dollars from the construction budget, known as the capital outlay bill, to state roadwork and maintenance of state buildings. He said he’ll seek to drop some of the smaller, local projects favored by state lawmakers for their districts. “We have projects in the program that add up to hundreds of millions of dollars more than can we afford to borrow to fund anyway. And so we need to cull a lot of those projects out. They’re never going to see the light of day,’’ he said. Governors, who have wide discretion over which projects get state financing, have often used those local projects sought by lawmakers to curry favor for administration bills. Edwards acknowledged the construction budget is often how governors “turn votes around on certain matters.’’ But he added: “That’s not the way I intend to use capital outlay.’’ He will face resistance in lessening those local projects. Senate President John Alario, a powerful legislative leader known for drawing millions in construction financing to his district, said he doesn’t support the governor’s position. “The people around this state also have some serious problems and needs. They have drainage problems that obviously are showing up a lot with the rains we’ve had. They’ve got road problems,’’ said Alario, R-Westwego. “We’ve got a cap at 25 percent in total capital outlay that could be allocated for local projects, and I think that ought to be maintained.’’ Other lawmakers, meanwhile, are proposing bills that would give themselves more decision-making over which projects get state financing. The construction budget passed by lawmakers each year has become a wish list, crammed with more proposals for economic development projects, building repairs, park improvements and lawmakers’ favored construction work back home than Louisiana has money to spend. That leaves the governor to decide which projects advance to receive lines of credit and the money to get under way, and lawmakers say that often involves deal-making. As the regular legislative session opened, Edwards told the House and Senate he intended to take a different approach. He said his administration will whittle down the projects in the pipeline and boost spending on road and bridge work by 25 percent. The governor said with continued budget problems, Louisiana must prioritize its dollars. Rather than construct new buildings, Edwards said, the state needs to spend more money on maintaining what it already has, particularly on college campuses that are estimated to have deferred maintenance needs of as much as $2 billion. Higher education leaders describe leaky roofs in classrooms, library volumes protected from water with plastic sheeting and ceiling tiles that collapse during storms. They talk of old heating and cooling systems that malfunction and buildings that can’t be maintained properly. “Maybe while they can’t afford to operate new buildings, next time heavy rains come they won’t take on water through leaky roofs and windows that don’t operate properly,’’ he said.

Crews Work on Other Four Phases of Volvo Plant Project VOLVO from page 1

the low bid, with Landmark coming in second. And that might have been that, but the story wasn’t over yet. Pretty much ever since he can remember, Mixson has been involved with the business started by his father 50 years ago. “Ever since I could probably walk, I pretty much followed my dad around,” he said. “I was really close to my father and he always carried me around. In the summer, once I was old enough to start doing some of the work, he’d put me with a crew and I would work all summer. And so I learned the hard way, pulling string lines, running the shovel, doing all that good stuff. I had to fight to get on the equipment. The guys really didn’t want me on the equipment. I was a kid. They wanted to run the equipment. While they were eating lunch, I’d jump on the equipment and learn to run it. That’s pretty much how I learned.” There was a lot to learn and respect to be earned, neither of which necessarily came easily. “One of the jobs that is most vivid to me was years ago, we were digging a big pond for the Robert Bosch Corporation,” Mixson said. “It was during the summer months and I was actually running the project. The guy we were working for with Bosch would come out and he wouldn’t even speak to me because he felt like I was a kid and I didn’t know what I was doing. It took him about two weeks to come around and figure out I was running the job. I was probably about 15. He was like, ‘Wow, this kid does know what he’s doing.’” And Mixson did. But even all those years of experience couldn’t shield him from the effects of the recession. In 2009, he saw his employees dwindle from 180 to 40. It was right about then that

(L-R) are Cindy, Ann and Rick Mixson.

Landmark was chosen to do the site work for the new 1.1-million sq. ft. (102,193 sq m) Tire Kingdom in Charleston. “It was probably $15 million worth of work for us,” Mixson said. “When you’re used to doing smaller jobs and you get something like that, wow. We moved probably about 1.5 million cubic yards of dirt. We were used to moving 50,000, 60,000, 100,000 cubic yards of dirt. One million yards, that is pretty substantial. But we did it. We got it in on budget and it was a fantastic job.” Mixson learned about the Volvo project by staying in touch with those in the know. “We try to get to know all the engineers in town, all the people designing the stuff we

“We’re using a lot of Volvo machines on the job,” said Rick Mixson, vicepresident of Landmark Construction Company.

do so we can get a heads up when things are coming,” he said. “Hopefully, that way we get some advance notice and we dedicate enough time to estimating it, knowing the quantities, knowing the site, soil conditions, so when it’s time to bid it we’re ready, we’ve done our due diligence.” But even with that due diligence, Landmark was close, but not close enough. Or so it appeared early on. Until the county realized the low bidder had qualified its bid — a no-no with a public bid. “So once the county realized they had qualified their bid, they said we have to throw the bid out and next thing I know we’re getting phone calls and we got the job. It was exciting and nerve-wracking at the

same time. It’s a huge job. It’s contractor’s dream job.” It also had the potential to be a nightmare. Last year was the wettest year on record with rainfall in Charleston measuring a recordbreaking 70 inches. Still, crews finished phase one on time. How? “Part of our contingency in our bid was to cement stabilize,” Mixson said. “There’s not a unit price in our contract to do that, but in order to meet the schedule and keep the job moving we figured we’d do a lot of cement stabilization, so we included in our numbers bringing in cement and doing soil stabilization. That’s where you add cement and you go in and spread 70 pounds per square yard across the surface you are working on. You have a soil stabilizer — it’s like a big tiller that goes down 18 inches and mixes cement into the soil and takes enough moisture out so you can get to optimum moisture and you can get compaction. It will take questionable dirt that you would never be able to dry out this time of year and you can dry it out and get it compacted to where you can do your next lift or fine-grade something and get rock on it.” Crews are now working on the other four phases of the project, with work about 90 percent complete on phase two, 70 percent on phase three, 10 percent on phase four and phase five soon to get under way. “We’re using a lot of Volvo machines on the job,” Mixson said. “Our off road trucks are all A 40s. We have mostly Volvo excavators, from a 480 to 340s, 350s. We just recently added 380s to the fleet. We’re using some Caterpillar equipment, including a grader we have out there right now. We’ve had two soil stabilizers working pretty much full-time, a Cat and Wirtgen. We’re using a combination of Komatsu bulldozers and Cat bulldozers on the site, some Volvo rollers, see VOLVO page 100

Crews are now working on the other four phases of the project.

Caterpillar Introduces Latest Machines at Three-Day Event PEORIA from page 20

The Cat 308E2 mini hydraulic excavator is now available in a variable-angle-boom (VAB) configuration that provides an expanded working envelope and increased application flexibility. The 304.5E2 XTC allows operators to achieve improved productivity in material carrying applications.

Lucas Sardenberg, wheel loader marketing consultant of Caterpillar, talks about the ease of access to the cab of the Caterpillar 972M wheel loader.

The Caterpillar built powertrain ensures reliability in this difficult application, and the 815K’s wheel design delivers high ground pressures.

The operator of this Cat 308E2 min-hydraulic excavator with variable-angle-boom (VAB) demonstrates the possible use of this machine if it were equipped with a mower attachment.

Contractor Training - Cultivating the Trainer Within By Jeff Ensell, Roadtec Inc. Special to ceG

training…why do it? the short and simple answer to the question of why bother with construction training is twofold: safety and productivity. accidents and injuries are a costly unnecessary risk to valued employees, expensive equipment, and company morale. and welltrained employees are not only safer, but feel more competent and comfortable on a work site, which translates to higher productivity and emanates beyond a site — fostering a positive reputation within and outside the company. travel most anywhere and watch construction crews. there are great crews and some that really struggle. the struggle can be battles with each other or the lack of training to do the task assigned to them by the foreman or above. the idea of training is broader than a formal function occurring in a classroom or at a field site. training should be considered a responsibility of every supervisor and manager, since they are in the best position to help cultivate their crew’s skills and knowledge. Supervisors and managers are promoted to their positions because of their experi-

ence and expertise. they know what they’re doing. Good, strong managers and supervisors inspire their crews to do great things and be productive. Senior company management needs to support this concept that everyone is responsible for training. With managers and supervisors functioning as leaders and mentors generous with their knowledge and help, workers learn to help their coworkers avoid mistakes and perform tasks better. as new technology, ideas, processes and procedures are introduced to the company, there is a need for the managers or supervisors who excel at training to be tapped. in-the-company trainers should be chosen out of the best you have available. the thinking can’t be, “Hey, i can’t lose that guy to training!” Generally speaking, a contractor’s cream of the crop manager has done every aspect of the job and can relate to what the crews face day in and day out. and who better can teach than that individual? trainers should be able to communicate effectively and be able to keep the hard hat on and not thrown down in frustration. contractors who have found workers who want to work is half the battle today. Keeping them engaged in the process is where a trainer can help. the work is hard and the days and/or nights are long, so if the

trainer is screaming, they will not receive the respect they deserve, nor will they be motivated. a trainer’s personality and humor can go a long way with crews and make workers want to come back for additional training. Being able to teach a person and show them the correct way will build a relationship between the trainer and the trainee. in-the-company trainers need to teach the same things to each crew. consistency is vital for a productive crew. For example in asphalt paving, crews that take off from the joint consistently, carry a consistent head of material, keep a consistent travel speed and use the grade control systems consistently are by far more productive. Not only will they be productive but they will be together longer as a crew — and this is a sign that training is paying off. people want to be a part of the best crew; it’s human nature. trainers should promote teamwork. cross training every position within the crew is key. When a crew member is out, they have another who can take the place and perform. Not only can they fill the position but they also understand the importance of that person’s position on the team. trainers need to be involved with every significant project from the start. When the project starts, so should a trainer. every com-

pany has rework that could have been prevented. consider that one asphalt-paving job of remove and replace on a high profile job, can be justification enough for having proper training before the project starts. Senior management at a contractor, needs to empower its trainers to ask the tough questions at a work site and jump in to troubleshoot when necessary. they need to be asking if everything is running o.K.; are tasks being safely performed; are the workers implementing the training they received? trainers at the site need to be 100% capable of making quality adjustments that improve productivity and ensure best results. their presence on the jobsite can send a powerful message to the crew and the owners of the project. So why train? Because it works. it promotes safety and quality results. it can inspire a worker to be a part of something bigger, something greater. clearly, when a construction contractor commits to making its workers the best, the workers will give their best. When workers are inspired to go to work and do their best for the company, this is the ultimate return on investment.

Volvo Debuts New P7110B, P7170B Tier IV Final Pavers The latest highway-class pavers from Volvo CE feature the Volvo D8J, 8-L, Tier IV Final engine with continuous passive regeneration, boasting more than 12 hours of continuous run time without refueling and more than 5 percent improvement in fuel efficiency versus previous models. Along with the latest Volvo engine, these new pavers feature long hydraulic tunnels, a range of screed options, a four-sensor material flow system and 360-degree visibility — all of which adds up to greater quality and productivity at lower operating cost, according to the manufacturer. “The P7110B and P7170B build upon more than 75 years of Blaw-Knox and ABG paving technologies combined with the proven Tier IV Final Volvo engine. Engine development is a core strength for Volvo that we leverage across the entire Volvo Group, and the D8J is another great example of improving performance while also complying with EPA regulation,” said John Mooney, product manager, pavers at Volvo Construction Equipment. “The 7000 Series pavers were field-tested with more than 200,000 tons of placed material to prove performance and reliability. Not only did we prove reliability, we lowered the fuel usage, per placed ton, as compared to any previous model.” Safety and Visibility The latest Volvo tracked and wheeled pavers offer unobstructed, 360-degree visibility. The engine has been neatly packaged under the hood while keeping the same low hood height, profile and engine serviceability. To provide emissions component access, the length of the top cover has been increased and a removable side cover added. Careful attention was paid to keeping excellent forward visibility over the hood area while retaining low deck height. To increase operator comfort, new side air vents and a slightly higher seat have been added. The operator has a choice of two control consoles, which allow the machine to be operated from the left or right sides. The consoles

rotate and tilt to align with the adjustable operator seats, which can easily extend beyond the edge of the paver for an unobstructed view of material flow. Large steps, handrails and anti-slip plates permit safe entrance and exit. New optional LED work lights brighten work areas and are resistant to shock, vibrations and external impact. Powerful Precision With the simple press of a button, the operator can extend the two-stage, 42-in. (106.6 cm) hydraulic tunnels allowing head-of-material control without the need for bolt-on extensions. These B-series pavers also offer the selection of factory-installed Omni 318, Omni 1000 and Ultimat 200 screeds, as well as dealer-installed Wedgelock screeds. With the Volvo quick coupling system, extensions can be easily added or removed in minutes. To ensure smooth and consistent paving, four standard ultrasonic sensors — two above the conveyor and two above the auger — automatically regulate the proper delivery and flow of material to match the paver’s speed. The tow point indicators have been updated

to increase readability and accuracy. High contrast scales are now located at the tow point with a red indicator for accuracy. The larger scale is easily readable from the paver or screed operators’ positions. The large-capacity hopper works in combination with independently controlled conveyors and augers to ensure a constant flow of material to the screed. The heavy, abuseresistant, 2-in. (5 cm) thick hopper wings prevent material build-up, improve clean-up and provide counter-balance weight. Maintenance Made Easy The Volvo “green” key provides common access to ignition, heat box, fuel cap, center console and DEF tank cover, and a second key opens the four side access covers, cooler, hydraulic pumps and the smaller hinged panels located on the side, under the operator seats. Engine checks are easily performed from the deck with full-width engine hood. Filters and coolers are easily checked with vertically hinged doors on the side of the machine. All material flow components feature sealed bearings for long life. A redesigned exhaust outlet eliminates the need to fold the pipe prior to transport. Comes With CareTrack The B-Series pavers also are available with optional factory-installed CareTrack — the Volvo telematics systems that provides remote monitoring of paver location and engine run time, as well as geo-fencing and reporting in order to increase uptime, and better plan paver hauling and service. With Volvo’s expansive North American dealer network and the ability to customize customer support agreements to individual needs, customers have the robust support needed to ensure maximum uptime, according to the manufacturer.

Richmond Machinery The Paving Equipment Professionals

Doosan RX-304H Compacts Range of Materials

Built with the paving professional in mind.

The Doosan Portable Power RX-304H upright rammer is built for the compaction of materials ranging from mixed and cohesive soils to heavy clay. The model is ideal for a wide array of applications, including backfilling and narrow trench compaction such as utility work, trenching, curbing, drainage work, and foundation and masonry base preparation. The RX-304H comes standard with a Honda recoil-start, four-cycle engine. Impact force is applied to the compacted material by a durable wooden foot reinforced with a heavy steel plate for extended life. The average impact per blow is 3,000 lbs. with up to 650 blows per minute. Featuring a low-profile, lightweight design, and a low center of gravity, the RX-304H self-balances — providing greater maneuverability and control around jobsite obstacles. A fourpoint isolation and vibration-reducing grip minimizes operator fatigue and prolongs the life of the rammer components, according to the manufacturer.

Bomag’s Six Dash 5 Series Tandem Vibratory Rollers Improve Productivity The six base models that make up the Bomag “Dash 5” Series of tandem vibratory rollers offer design enhancements over previous series, increasing productivity, improving mat quality and reducing service time, according to the manufacturer. Tackling a range of commercial and mainline applications from parking lots and asphalt repair to interstates and airports, this series of rollers offers rolling widths ranging from 59.1 in. (150 cm) to 84.1 in. (213 cm) to efficiently compact a wide range of paving widths. Bomag offers three different vibration technologies — vertical, TanGO and Asphalt Manager — throughout the asphalt roller line. Traditional vertical vibration boasts dual amplitude and frequencies, giving the operator the flexibility to tailor compaction energy output to the application. TanGO’s tangential oscillating rear drum (available on the BW161ADO-5, BW190ADO5, BW191ADO-5 and BW206ADO-5 models) allows the rollers to be used on sensitive applications such as bridge overlays, thin lifts and around structures. Asphalt Manager’s drum features vectoring vibration from true vertical to true horizontal as material stiffness increases. Large 55.1 in. (140 cm) drum diameters on the BW191AD-5 and BW206AD-5 highway-class rollers help to deliver a smoother surface finish to improve mat quality. These larger drum diameter rollers provide more impact surface area in contact with the asphalt to help prevent mat pushing and shoving. It also helps to eliminate the potential for bow waves in front of the drum, even when working at higher mainline compaction speeds on tender mats, according to the manufacturer. All rollers in the line feature powerful and fuel-efficient Tier IV Final diesel engines that meet the most stringent North American emissions standards. Bomag’s Ecomode operation found on the rollers saves on operating costs by automatically matching engine speed to load demand. When performing low-load tasks like static rolling, the engine speed is de-rated to conserve fuel. Additionally the operator can set a predetermined idle time where the engine is automatically shut off once that time is exceeded. Bomag’s Ecomode operation can lower fuel costs by up to 30 percent over full

engine speed operation, depending on application. Improving the rollers’ compaction performance and efficiency, the intuitive Economizer compaction measurement system can be economically added to all “Dash 5” series rollers. Economizer takes the guess work out of compaction by delivering real-time compaction progress to the operator via a simple-to-read LED light gauge on the instrument panel. As material stiffness increases, the number of illuminated LED lights also increases. The system also warns operators of potential over compaction to prevent aggregate fracturing. Economizer saves contractors time, fuel and money by eliminating unnecessary passes and allows the operator to identify and correct “soft” spots in the mat. Large operator platforms that improve operator comfort and visibility are the hallmark of Bomag’s “Dash 5” roller line. A single sliding and swiveling operator’s seat increases visibility to the machine’s front, rear and sides. The suspended seat with integrated travel lever slides effortlessly along a back rail, while it swivels 180 degrees to give operators direct line visibility to the drum’s edge. The console swivels along with the seat, so the controls and display are always in the same position relative to the seat.

With Bomag’s EasyService built into this series of rollers, contractors maximize machine uptime by minimizing service time. All machine maintenance points can be easily reached from ground level. Featuring no grease zerks throughout the line to minimize daily maintenance, these rollers incorporate special bearings that are hermetically sealed with high quality grease, providing reliable lifetime lubrication. The rollers’ single-unit hydraulically opening hood easily swings up and out of the way to provide unobstructed access to the entire engine compartment. Bomag’s “Dash 5” series of tandem vibrator rollers boast pressurized water spray systems with interval-timing to extend operating time required between tank refilling. Two springloaded flexible polyurethane scrapers per drum evenly distribute water to keep the drum clean. Available crab walk steering allows the front and rear drums to be offset to facilitate compaction alongside structures. Fullwidth operator platform ROPS cabs with heat and air conditioning are available to increase operator comfort. For more information, call 803/3370700 or visit www.bomag.com/us.

rubber-track asphalt paver designed to work in all types of sub-grades and paving applications.

GOMACO Introduces 3300 Paver GOMACO’s 3300 multi-application slipform paver features extreme steering capabilities with smart leg and track positioning and a smart telescoping mold mounting system for paving from the right side or left side of the paver. The original GT-3300 has been re-engineered with the latest in technology with the G+ control system. GOMACO’s 3300 was specifically designed for right side and left side pour capabilities. It features a symmetrical design that makes it easy to pave from either side and its U-shaped operator’s platform provides a complete view of the entire paving operation from anywhere on the platform. The control console easily slides from sideto-side to accommodate the direction of the pour. The 3300’s design includes a 20 ft. (6.1 m) long conveyor with four-way hydraulic positioning, which allows perfect placement of the concrete into the hopper on either side of the 3300. The fourway positioning includes pivoting tilt, pivoting swing, longitudinal slide and sideshifting. The conveyor hydraulically folds to reduce the

The Roadtec RP-175e is a compact 8-ft. (2.5 m) wide rubber-track asphalt paver designed to work in all types of subgrades and paving applications. Full counter-rotate ability and track flotation is designed to allow the RP-175e to maneuver and pave in tight areas without sacrificing tractive effort or pushing power. The RP-175e features Roadtec's anti-segregation design of the feed tunnel, the feed tunnel discharge and the rear augers. The machine comes equipped with the Roadtec Eagle 8 screed, which is said to be the company’s top line option, combining the latest in screed technology and heavy-duty structural design. The heated, vibratory rear-mounted hydraulic extensions move on dual guide tubes and greaseless bushings. Both edges of the Eagle U-shaped screed plate are curved, which means it can be reversed for a fresh leading edge — essentially providing twice the wear life. The Eagle 8 end gates can be swung in for shipping to narrow the load width to 8 ft. Dual operator station seats on the Roadtec RP-175e paver can move out beyond the sides of the machine to give the operator a view down the sides of the machine. The narrow shipping width of this paver is designed to The Roadtec RP-175e is a compact 8-ft. (2.5 m) wide facilitate transportation between job locations.

overall transport length of the paver. The 3300’s extreme steering is accomplished with hydraulic rotational drives on the tracks and G+ controls. The 3300’s two front legs are mounted on parallelogram-style pivot arms and the rear leg has power slide for positioning. Their smart leg positioning is accomplished with smart cylinders and the G+ digital control system along with smart track rotation to provide the G+ control system with the exact location and position of the tracks and ref-

erence to their straight ahead line. Another feature on the 3300 is the smart telescoping mold mounting system for reference to G+ for repeatable mold offset. It has the GOMACO hook-and-go mold mounting system to quickly and efficiently change from one mold profile to the next. The trimmerhead and mold sideshift and vertically-adjust to clear obstacles which allows the 3300 to pave right up to obstacles. The G+ control system easily interfaces with stringline or a 3D guidance system for the 3300 multi-application paver. For more information, visit www.gomaco.com.

Cat Adds B-Series Tandem Rollers to Its Machine Family Caterpillar Inc.’s high-production BSeries tandem vibratory rollers includes the CB64B, CB66B and CB68B models. These machines are 13 to 15.4 ton (12 to 14 t) compactors that feature wider drum widths, highflow water spray system, increased operator comfort and enhanced technology to help operators and machines perform at higher levels. Many of the technological enhancements are provided through the optional Cat compaction control. Pass-count and temperature mapping systems combine infrared temperature sensors with GPS mapping to keep the operator informed of current mat temperatures, machine position, pass-count and pass coverage. This intuitive system greatly enhances nighttime performance, and also records information for future process analysis and quality control documentation. When combined with drum edge and drum surface lighting, Cat compaction control helps extend the workday and increase daily production by optimizing jobsite awareness in low-light conditions, according to the manufacturer. “Machine to machine” communication is another technological enhancement that improves jobsite efficiency. The system helps keep rolling patterns in sync by sharing coverage and pass-count maps between the operating displays of multiple machines. By viewing the color display, operators can monitor areas of coverage and the number of passes made. If a trailing operator sees an area of missed coverage, they can easily pick it up to ensure the entire rolling pattern gets the attention that is needed. This system is extremely helpful when performing echelon compaction when multiple machines are executing a five or seven pass rolling pattern. In addition, these rollers perform well in vibratory or static mode, enabling a single machine to perform breakdown, intermediate and finishing work. The rollers are wellsuited to all types of mix designs and applications. They provide high variation of amplitudes for breakdown and intermediate work, while their high static linear loads deliver enhanced results for finishing work. Typical applications include highways, city streets, county roads, lane additions, industrial sites, overlays, airport runways and other production-sized paving jobs. Efficient Power and Eco-Mode The Cat C4.4 engine meets U.S. EPA Tier IV Final and EU Stage IV emissions and provides 142 hp (106 kW) of power. Automatic eco-mode operates at a variable engine speed to deliver excellent fuel economy and lower sound levels. Keeping Operators Productive Working in unfavorable conditions is typ-

The CB64B, CB66B and CB68B models are 13 to 15.4 ton (12 to 14 t) compactors that feature wider drum widths, high-flow water spray system, increased operator comfort and enhanced technology to help operators and machines perform at higher levels.

ical in the paving business, but the operating station helps keep operators comfortable and productive. Visibility and comfort are enhanced by the standard 180 degree seating and optional 360 degree positioning. New handwheel steering technology eliminates the front steering console, enabling the operator to easily monitor water spray performance. An LCD display and push-button controls simplify operation for an all-around comfortable operating environment. Smooth, Maneuverable These models feature a newly designed center-articulating hitch with 6 degrees of oscillation that ensures mat contact and a smoother ride over uneven surfaces. An offset hitch option extends coverage up to 6 in. (15.2 cm) and simplifies control next to obstacles. It delivers excellent performance on longitudinal joints by pinching the edge with the lead drum and sealing the joint with the trailing drum. The CB64B is equipped with 79 in. (200

cm) drums, while the CB66B and CB68B utilize 84 in. (213 cm) drums. The Cat C4.4 engine rated at 142 hp (106 kW) comes standard with eco-mode and automatic speed control, leading to uniform compaction, fuel savings, reduced sound levels, and ultimately lower operating costs, according to the manufacturer. Versatile Vibratory Systems The B-Series tandem rollers offer a variety of vibratory options including dual amplitude, dual frequency, Versa Vibe and five amplitude systems. The Versa Vibe system creates a 2-in-1 machine with four amplitudes and two frequencies. This system provides two settings for lighter hitting and higher working speeds on thin lifts; and two settings for heavier hitting, and slower speeds, on thick lifts or those with challenging mixes. The five-amplitude system offers the widest range of amplitudes with a single frequency. This system is a heavy hitter, with more options that help fine-tune compaction performance on thick lifts. The system also

works well on tough-to-compact mix designs that consist of large aggregate and low levels of filler and binder. Durable Water Spray System Reliable water spray systems are needed to keep rollers on the mat and on pace with the paver. The high-capacity system on these models are designed with dual spray bars, dual pumps, triple filtration, adjustable intermittent operation and an optional freeze protection kit. The dual pumps provide back-up capability and alternate with the direction of travel to maximize service life. Clogging is prevented through filters at the fill point, water pumps and spray nozzles. The adjustable intermittent mode conserves water and minimizes re-fills for optimal efficiency. The optional freeze protection kit helps ensure the roller is ready when you need it.

Camso Launches New Tires for Telehandlers Two new next generation telehandler tires from Camso, formerly Camoplast Solideal, set new standards for stability, traction and resistance to damage. “We’re building on our ‘tough is our way of life’ promise,” said David Fleischhauer, executive director, market development, construction of Camso. “The Camso TLH 732 and TLH 753 pneumatic tires offer a rugged, lower cost option to solid rubber tires for rental, construction and agriculture applications. Both new models feature exceptional resistance to blowouts and sidewall damage while providing greater stability for moving telehandler loads safely.” Advanced rubber compounds increase the resilience and wear life of both models. The directional tread pattern of the TLH 732 tire focuses on providing aggressive traction in soft soils. The non-directional tread pattern of TLH 753 offers increased abrasion resistance for operation on mixed and hard surfaces. Both of these second generation products will phase out the Solideal SL G2 and SL G3 respectively. Improved Sidewall Resists Impact Similar to Camso’s newly launched skid steer tire line up, the sidewall design of both new TLH products have an enhanced impact guard that reverses the traditional tire profile to deflect objects and debris away from the tire. Camso also adds an optimized tread pattern to provide more stable footing for lifting and moving as load balances shift with the dynamic loading on a telescopic boom. Camso TLH 732 for Superior Traction Recommended for soft-soil jobsites, the TLH 732 highlights a new directional wraparound tread pattern with massive tread depth and stepped-design features to improve debris cleanout and deliver best in off-road traction. In addition to the improvement to the sidewalls, the TLH 732 further resists damage with an industrious void guard to reinforce the sizable spaces between the tread lugs to prevent punctures and minimize flats.

Reduced Costs for Rental Stores Uptime and safety are key factors for customer satisfaction in the rental business. By resisting blowouts and sidewall damage, Camso’s next generation telehandler tires offer a simple solution to the high cost of service calls for equipment rental stores. “The vast majority of telehandlers in the field are actually in rental fleets,” Fleischhauer said. “These TLH tires ensure fewer flats, which means lower service costs for them and more uptime for their customers.” The TLH 732 and TLH 753 are currently available in North America and will be launched worldwide June 1, 2016.

Camso TLH 753 for Longer Wear The non-directional TLH 753 tread resists abrasion and wear on hard-packed, asphalt or concrete surfaces and comes in standard or low profile models. On softer ground, its deep stepped tread and optimized lug-to-void ratio deliver excellent traction, according to the manufacturer. “The TLH 753 is today’s best value for general purpose telehandler duty, especially for customers who can’t predict the machine’s working conditions day by day. This is a tire that can live longer in the telehandler environment, without simply adding more rubber and more cost,” said Fleischhauer

Looking Back at the History of the Modern Skid Steer By Giles Lambertson CEG CORRESPONDENT

(Editor’s note: This article was originally published in CEG in 2014.) In 1958, Louis Keller drove his truck into the barnyard of western Minnesota turkey farmer John Sonstegard. He entered the building where Sonstegard was working and told the farmer he had a machine outside that would efficiently clean his manure-laden barns. The farmer agreed to take a look at it. It was not love at first sight. “When we clean barns, we clean barns,” Sonstegard scolded Keller. “I don’t need a toy.” The rejection was classic, for Keller’s “toy” was the progenitor of the modern skid steer compact loader — specifically, the Bobcat loader. Keller and his brother, Cyril, had developed the machine two years earlier for another farmer and were shopping it around. Sonstgard’s dismissal obviously was not the end of the story. After the farmer strode back into his barn, Louis Keller didn’t slink away. Showing the indefatigable belief that marked his inventive career, Keller turned to the farm foreman and offered to clean a barn for free. The man agreed and Keller returned some days later with his machine. With Keller at the controls, the little loader scooped up manure and topped off five waiting trucks so swiftly that the truckers couldn’t keep up with him. Finally, Sonstegard himself walked into the area where the loader was working — almost being run over by the backing machine — and scolded Keller again, this time for not telling him how well the machine would do the job. He ordered two loaders. The story of the blacksmithing Keller brothers of Rothsay, Minn., has become a familiar one, about how they personally upended the construction machinery idea that bigger is better. The dimensions of their “toy” loader became the forerunner of a compact equipment market that still is expanding in 2014. Tens of thousands of skid steer loaders are sold every year, with the one millionth Bobcat expected to roll off the assembly line in June. But forget the numbers. The Keller brothers (Louis on the left, Cyril on the right) were inducted into the Hall The story is principally of Fame of the California Construction Equipment Industry. about the human spirit and such immeasurable qualities tom wagons they turned out in their blacksmith shop were as tenacity, vision and joie de vivre.

Market Forces Shape Design of Early Skid Steers HISTORY from page 62

(2.7 m) machine was steered using two levers operating the power-transfer belts. With one wheel rolling forward and the opposite wheel rolling backward, the loader pivoted in its own length. “Everyone wanted a steering wheel,” Cyril Keller said now of customers’ initial reactions to the revolutionary loader. “Other machines had hydraulic controls operated by your hands, but now your feet were doing it. It was totally new.” The inventors monitored the first loader’s performance on the Velo farm. When the machine’s belts proved problematic, sometimes slipping off and rendering the machine inoperable, the brothers went back to the drawing board. The result was a durable clutch system that remained the mainstay of Bobcat skid steer loaders, even well beyond the advent of hydrostatics in 1970. The Buzz Begins After building and selling a half-dozen loaders, the brothers knew they were on to something. Bankers and community leaders in Rothsay and nearby Fergus Falls weren’t so sure. Neither community was willing to come up with $250,000 to set up a plant to build the Keller machine. So Anton Christianson, an uncle of the brothers, had another idea. Christianson sold agriculture implements for Melroe Manufacturing, a company located in Gwinner, N.D., about 70 miles west of Rothsay. When one of four Melroe brothers, Les, visited the company’s Elbow Lake, Minn., dealership where Christianson worked, Melroe was asked to drive to Rothsay and check out the patented loader. After seeing it demonstrated, Melroe invited the Kellers to display it at the Melroe exhibit at the 1958 Minnesota State Fair. It was a hit. In fact, after a thousand pieces of literature on the Keller Self-Propelled Loader were snatched up by curious fairgoers, Cyril Keller saw Les Melroe putting Melroe Manufacturing Co. stickers on the loader. “I said, hey, that’s our machine!” Keller gleefully remembers. A contract was worked up a month later and the Melroe loader — four years later rebranded a Bobcat — began to be produced in Gwinner. The brothers were asked to develop an improved “Melroe” loader and were assigned three employees to help fabricate parts. After the first six loaders were built, Louis Keller settled in to oversee continuing development and Cyril, the more gregarious of the brothers, hit the road selling them. “They asked me to go across Iowa and see what I could do, so I did and sold four machines. The last buyer wanted a discount and I had to call Melroe to see about that,” Cyril said. The company sold 25 Melroe loaders the first year and, more importantly, placed the loader in dealerships across the region. The Kellers collected and shared a $15 royalty from each machine sold, a formula that remained unchanged over the years even as the sales price of the skid steer loaders climbed. Cyril Keller traveled throughout the country, into Canada, and across the Atlantic Ocean to Europe, seizing every opportunity to show off the capabilities of the loader. “If I saw another loader parked somewhere, I would stop and demonstrate our machine,” he recalled. He scooped brown sugar from a boxcar in Texas and soda ash from the hold of a docked ship in Holland. He impressed bystanders at every stop with deft loader demonstrations, and amiably turned gawkers into buyers. Cyril enjoys telling of another classic misjudgment by a potential buyer. He was on his way to demonstrate the loader to a North Dakota farmer when he impulsively stopped at a

farmers co-op in Dickinson. He showed the loader to the manager and gave him a piece of literature, but was quickly rebuffed. “You know,” said the manager, “it is guys like you and stuff like this that makes people like me go broke.” Unfazed, Cyril Keller drove on for the scheduled demonstration at the farm. Afterwards, the farmer not only was enthusiastic about the Melroe loader, it turned out he was president of the very co-op Keller had visited. The co-op manager’s decision was reversed. Engineering the Skid As the loader grew in popularity, market forces began to shape the machine. Cyril Keller reported back to his brother at the factory that the rear caster wheel’s inability to handle soft earth was a recurring problem. After the two brothers talked through the matter, Louis Keller began to tinker in earnest. His solution was to get rid of the caster wheel and put an additional drive wheel on each side of the main housing. Because all four wheels were fixed, however, turning the machine was an engineering challenge. “Louie kind of figured that out,” Cyril Keller said. First joining the wheels on each side by chains and controlling them through the patented clutch system, Louis Keller then determined through trial and error that a 70-30 weight distribution would let the front or rear set of wheels skid sideways in a turn. A loaded bucket lightened the rear wheels, an empty bucket lightened the front wheels. This weight shift allowed the loader to pivot. The solution was skeptically received: Louis Keller was offered a steak dinner if the four-wheel loader actually turned. While he never got that steak dinner, it worked just fine, for when Louis Keller put his inventive mind to a task, success was the usual outcome. Several years before he and Cyril tackled the self-propelled loader, Louis built and sold the first tractor-mounted ribbon auger snowblower and then the first walk-behind snowblower. The skid steer was just the latest product of his original thinking. “Everything he worked on, he learned from. He was always quick to see when something wouldn’t work,” said Louis Keller’s son, Joe. The younger Keller remembers his father — who died in 2010 at age 87 — as a supremely selfassured innovator with great vision. “He would tell people, ‘I am just as confident that it will work as you are that it won’t work.” Firmly believing that a machine that lacked steerable wheels could somehow be turned, Louis Keller gave birth to the skid-steering system. With nothing else like it in the market, the Melroe compact loader was set loose to corner the market as an extremely nimble machine of tremendous utility. The Sibling Team Did Cyril Keller and his brother enjoy working as a team? “We were the best team in Minnesota … and North Dakota,” he quickly responded. “We loved to work together.” The team formed after World War II service overseas — Cyril as a Navy cook and Louis an Army mechanic. Louis started his blacksmithing business in 1947 and Cyril joined him in 1953, leaving behind a position as a New Holland mechanic. “Louie called and said, ‘There is so much work that I can’t take care of it.’ Something kept telling me to go ahead and do it,” Cyril Keller recalled. So he and his wife left their new home in Elbow Lake and moved to Rothsay. The brothers relocated the shop from a double garage to a larger space and, in a Cyril jest, hung a whimsical sign above the shop door: “We repair everything except a broken heart.” Cyril was the superior welder, Louis the better machinist. Building better plowshares became

their joint preoccupation. However, an inventive gene runs strongly through the family. The brothers’ grandfather liked to make things and Louis Keller often stopped by his grandfather’s house after school to tinker in his shop with him (sometimes leaving Cyril to do farm chores by himself). Eventually, each of the four Keller brothers was issued at least one patent for an invention. So when the loader project was dropped in their laps, the brothers’ fabrication work got more interesting. Putting their heads together, they brainstormed and began to see real possibilities. “We thought it could go,” Cyril Keller said, looking back, “but we didn’t imagine it would go like it did.” Such prodigious success was simply unimaginable in 1957. Later when the team took on specialized roles at Melroe — Louis fabricating and Cyril selling — it continued to function at a high level. Cyril Keller would relay feedback from customers to his brother at the plant. The two men probably communicated with one another better than they did with other Melroe personnel, said Louis Keller’s daughter, Marilyn Loegering. Both men were schooled only through the eighth grade, so their understanding of machinery and manufacturing was forged mostly of tactile memory and instinct. Their working terminology was coined from experience and served them well. The Later Years Cyril Keller retired in 1984 and turned 92 this month. He stepped back some 15 years after Louis, who left the company only to pursue another project. He wanted to build a smaller loader — a “mini-Bob” — that would fit through three-foot entranceways. Bobcat executives weren’t interested, so Louis set up his own shop at home and methodically downsized the skid steer. As the idea came together, the company got interested. In 1971, Bobcat sent the prototype and a larger model to a dealership convention in Phoenix, Ariz. In two days, the miniBob, later dubbed the M371, attracted 950 dealer orders. It ultimately stayed in production longer than the other exhibited machine. Louis Keller designed numerous attachments for the skid steer. He also introduced tracks to give the loaders additional traction. Because Bobcat again showed little interest, Louis turned to his daughter Marilyn and her husband, George Loegering. The couple geared up and manufactured the Loegering Tire Crawler Track, which spawned the industry’s compact track loader segment. Louis’ well of innovation never went dry. When he died four years ago, Louis Keller had sketches of ideas he hadn’t gotten around to fully developing, Joe Keller says. The skid steer story has earned the Keller brothers official state and industry recognition in Minnesota, North Dakota, and California. Some of their papers are in the Smithsonian Institution. The American Society of Agriculture Engineering honored them with its “Historic Landmark” award, an honor only periodically given out. Fortune Magazine saluted the pair by naming the skid steer loader one of the 100 best American-made products in the world. Just three years ago, a woman paid a particularly bright tribute to the skid steer loader. Cyril Keller told with relish how the woman reacted when her betrothed showed her a diamond engagement ring. “I would rather have a Bobcat,” she announced. She told her (probably stunned) future husband that she had learned to drive a skid steer at age nine and the machine still held a special place in her heart. Of such testimonies are legends made.

JCB Inks Deal With Local Landscape Firm

Drivers on Interstate 95 near Savannah, Ga., have probably seen JCB machines sitting outside the equipment giant’s 1,000-plus acre campus as they passed by its North American headquarters. Now, due to a deal recently signed with Hutton’s Landscapes of Savannah, the company’s equipment will be seen in transit and working on local job sites from Richmond Hill up to Hilton Head and even into Charleston, S.C. The deal between the two companies resulted in the landscape and concrete company replacing its entire fleet of skid steer and compact track loaders, as well as its compact excavators with JCB equipment. “JCB came out to see us a number of times over the past few months in an effort to understand the type of work we do,� said Matt Hutton, CEO of Hutton’s Landscapes. “They brought multiple machines onsite for our operators to evaluate, then made some logical recommendations which allowed us to replace our entire fleet with JCB machines.� “Our need to partner with a local contractor was increasingly important,� said Keith Hoskins, vice president of compact products of JCB North America. “By having equipment in use around Savannah, we gain the ability to test new technology in our own backyard, then tweak the technology until it’s perfected. We’ve already done this with Hutton in the testing of our new ‘My Choice Controls’ on JCB skid steers. It’s a win-win situation. Hutton gets the expertise of the manufacturer just a short distance away and we get the opportunity to hear firsthand on an ongoing basis how the product’s performing and what can be improved upon. It will allow us to continue evolving the product line.� The deal was solidified with the help of JCB of Georgia, JCB’s local authorized equipment dealership. Tony

Reardon, CEO, worked closely with JCB and JCB Finance to facilitate the details of the transaction. “We are extremely pleased to provide Hutton’s Landscapes with JCB skid steer loaders, compact track loaders and compact excavators,� said Reardon. “JCB manufactures world class equipment right here in Savannah, so having a local, successful landscape contractor such as Hutton choose the brand is extremely beneficial. JCB has been increasingly aggressive in gaining market share, having just come off the best year in the company’s North American history.� JCB manufactures 18 models of skid steer and compact track loaders, as well as the 3CX, one of the most popular models in the company’s line of backhoe loaders. Also manufactured in Savannah is the JCB High Mobility Engineered Excavator (HMEE), a product made exclusively for the U.S. Army. Hutton’s Landscapes is a full-service, design-build and maintenance firm with a broad range of services from design to land-clearing through the construction process to landscape maintenance. In addition to landscaping, the company also offers a full-service concrete business. In 2015, it poured more than 400 home slabs. It currently serves both residential and commercial outlets in the coastal Low Country and surrounding areas, providing high quality, cost effective site-preparation, design, concrete and landscape services.

Practical Design…

JCB Launches Common Sense Skid Steer Video on Social Media In an effort to communicate the practicality of its skid steer design, JCB released a video on its social media channels (You Tube, Facebook, Twitter and Google Plus). JCB’s side-entry skid steer allows operators to safely enter the machine, just as they would any other piece of equipment, rather than climbing over a cumbersome attachment, as required by front entry models. “We are constantly looking for unique ways to communicate JCB product attributes,” said Thom Peebles, vice president of marketing of JCB North America. “This video serves as an entertaining way to highlight our safe, side-door entry, a feature made possible through JCB’s single power boom design.” JCB manufactures a full line of side-door entry skid steer and compact track loaders at its Savannah, Ga.based North American Headquarters for distribution around the world.

The video can be seen on you tube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gD5qw Kh87Gg or on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/JCBNA?fref=ts. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

New Case Skid Steers Offer Selective Catalytic Reduction Technology Case Construction Equipment became the first manufacturer to offer skid steer loaders with selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology with the introduction of the SR270 radial-lift skid steer and the SV300 vertical-lift skid steer. The SR270 becomes the industry’s largest radial lift skid steer with a rated operating capacity of 2,700 lbs. (1,224 kg) at 90 hp. The new Tier IV Final models feature best-in-class torque, breakout force and standard auxiliary hydraulic flow, as well as the industry’s widest cab with best-in-class 360degree visibility, according to the manufacturer. The SCR engine technology found in both machines is a result of years of emissions reduction expertise by Fiat Powertrain Technologies (also a CNH Industrial company). Having proven itself in on-road trucking applications, and expanding into heavy earthmoving and agricultural applications, the technology has evolved to prove beneficial in even smaller engine ranges, such as skid steers. “Owners and operators who get in the habit of topping off their diesel exhaust fluid [DEF] tank when they refuel will notice that there’s no additional attention required — it’s that easy,” said Warren Anderson, brand marketing manager, Case Construction Equipment. “There are no daily or intensive maintenance efforts required by the new technology, no diesel particulate filter to maintain or replace — and owners will notice a more efficient use of the machine’s engine.” The new SR270 weighs in at 8,117 lbs. (3,682 kg), the SV300 at 8,655 lbs. (3,926 kg). Both deliver best-in-class torque of 282 ft./lbs. and bucket breakout force up to 8,776 lbs. Rated at 90 gross hp, the machines include standard (24.2 gpm [91.6 Lpm] and high-flow auxiliary 37.6 gpm [143 Lpm]) hydraulics for power and attachment versatility. A 25.5-gal. (96.5 L) fuel tank extends runtimes and ensures that the machine can work the entire day without refueling. SCR: Easy, Efficient Tier IV Final Because SCR is an after-treatment system, it lowers exhaust temperatures and does not require unproductive fuel use associated with burning off particulate matter — great for larger engines. This offers a reduction in fuel use compared to systems with DPFs. This SCR solution is more efficient and requires less maintenance than DPFs, as it does not require filter replacement or upkeep. It also removes complexity for operators and maintenance staff by eliminating regeneration associated with DPFs. Heavy-Duty Features With the introduction of this generation of Tier IV Final skid steers, Case offers a number of heavy-duty features as standard equipment for optimal reliability in tough working conditions. This includes a heavy-duty 950 CCA battery for consistent starts in cold weather, a more robust rear door for added protection, industry-exclusive standard front and side lighting for working all hours of the day, a block heater and an easily accessible remote jump-start — ensuring the

machine will be ready to work throughout the year, day and night, according to the manufacturer. EZ-EH Controls Allow Flexibility The SR270 and SV300 offer an EZ-EH (electrohydraulic) setup menu that features nine adjustable speed and control sensitivity settings that can be adjusted on the fly. This allows the operator to match controls to their preference for comfort and greater productivity. A single rocker switch allows operators to switch between the Case “H” operating pattern and ISO pattern controls. New operator handles with industry-exclusive detents improve controllability and feathering by providing greater responsiveness to the actions/movement of the machine. The machine also features pushbutton ride control, hydraulic oneway self-leveling, two-speed ground drive, and an advanced instrument cluster with programmable security and automatic shutdown as options. Extended Wheelbase Increases Stability The Case PowerStance wheelbase provides excellent curb clearance and greater stability during lifting and hauling, which helps retain more material in the bucket. That stability also improves operator confidence when working on varied terrain. Additional counterweights can further improve stability and performance while also increasing the rated operating capacity by 100 lbs. (45 kg). Comfort for the Operator Like other skid steers from Case, the SR270 and SV300 offer a wide cab that is fully sealed and pressurized against noise, dust and fumes. The cab-forward design combines with ultra-narrow wire side screens to provide 360-degree visibility and excellent site lines down to the bucket edge/curb lines. A large, rounded rear window improves rear visibility. Standard heavy-duty front and side lights, along with a skylight, further improve all-around visibility. The lowest step and entry threshold in the industry makes it easy for the operator to get in and out of the cab. The machine also features an optional radio and upgraded climate controls for optimal comfort. Maintenance Made Easy The engine, filters and fill points are all located at the rear of the machine for quick access. The battery is now housed behind its own side-entry panel at the rear of the machine for easy access and service. Both the SR270 and SV300 feature Case’s easy-tilt cab for convenient access to the drivetrain compartment. Hydraulic quick couplers allow operators to quickly change attachments from the comfort of the cab, while connect under pressure (CUP) manifolds require no tools to connect or disconnect hydraulic lines.

Bobcat S595 Skid-Steer Loader Features Higher ROC For operators looking for more performance and productivity in a 74-hp skid-steer loader, Bobcat Company offers the new S595. The Bobcat S595 skid-steer loader has the highest rated operating capacity (ROC) of any of the 500-series loaders in its lineup by boasting a 2,200-lb. ROC. This makes it ideal for those who need to lift and carry more material. Operators can move more material in a shorter amount of time and get more work done in the same amount of time for increased productivity, according to the manufacturer. Lift Loads Higher The vertical-lift-path S595 is able to lift loads higher, making it easier to clear highsided truck boxes and hoppers. Operators working in construction, landscaping and agriculture, as well as many other market segments, will appreciate this model because of its compact size and performance. Standard: Two-Speed Travel A standard feature for the S595 skid-steer loader is two-speed travel, with a top speed of 11 mph. The feature allows operators to choose between low and high travel speeds to match the jobsite conditions and tasks.

Operators can switch between travel speeds with a simple press of a button. All-Day Comfort The S595 has a best-in-class pressurized cab with a one-piece seal that goes all the way around the door and fits into a special curved pocket. This minimizes the amount of dirt and dust that might enter the cab, creating more enjoyable working conditions for the operator. S595 skid-steer loaders come with standard controls. Advanced Control System (ACS) and Selectable Joystick Controls (SJC) are available as options. Additional options include an enclosed cab with heat and air conditioning, radio, deluxe instrumentation and hydraulic bucket positioning. Uptime Protection Bobcat S595 loaders incorporate multiple design elements to help protect the owner’s investment and minimize downtime. • Auxiliary hydraulic quick couplers are mounted directly to the front plate of the lift arm • A guard bar extends in the front of the

quick coupler for added protection • Hoses are routed through the loader arms for better protection • Simple checkpoints make it easier to perform routine maintenance Enhanced Visibility The M-Series, cab-forward design moves operators closer to the attachment and delivers enhanced visibility in all directions. Operators can see the cutting edges of a bucket, for example, for more precise work and better

overall productivity on their job sites. The larger top window makes it easier and more comfortable for the operator when performing tasks like loading trucks or tall hoppers. Sixty genuine Bobcat attachments are approved for use with S595 skid-steer loaders, making them a versatile machine on any job site. Owners can purchase the optional high-flow auxiliary hydraulics for improved attachment performance. Another option is the Power Bob-Tach attachment mounting system to change non-hydraulic attachments without even leaving the loader cab. For more information, visit Bobcat.com.

Road Construction Pushes Lions Out of Kenya Park By Tom Odula ASSOCIATED PRESS

NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) A leading Kenyan wildlife expert has said the noise from road construction is scaring lions out of Nairobi National Park and could lead to the death of people or the lions. A lion injured a 63-old man March 18 after it strayed from the Nairobi park into a major highway during the morning rush hour. Kenya Wildlife Service rangers captured and returned it to the park. It was the third incident in the last two months of lions straying from the park. The construction of a road joining two of the city’s major highways along the boundary of the Nairobi park is disorienting the lions, said wildlife expert Paula Kahumbu. “I suspect that the construction along the [southern bypass] is related to this. There is a lot of activity, noise and possibly dust and vibrations. The lions are simply not used to

this. Many people fear that the lions will hurt someone and give KWS [Kenya Wildlife Service] a reason to close the park and develop it,’’ Kahumbu said. Kenya Wildlife Service said they are investigating how the lions are leaving the park on the side that has an electric fence. Paul Udoto, a wildlife service spokesman, said that probe will look into whether the lions are being affected by the construction of the road and if the fence has been damaged by animals or the local communities. The government has announced plans to build a railway that will traverse part of the reserve. Conservationists have opposed the railway line. Nairobi National Park’s 45-sq.-mi. (117 sq km) is home to endangered black rhinos, lions, leopards, cheetahs, hyenas, buffaloes, giraffes and diverse birdlife. The animals roam just 6 mi. from downtown Nairobi, which lies north of the park. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

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

ConExpo-Con/AGG Radio…

New Radio Program Raises Awareness of Innovations in the Construction Industry ConExpo-Con/AGG and the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) have announced a new radio show and podcast to engage with individuals who want an insightful look into the changing landscape of the construction industry. The weekly program, ConExpo-Con/AGG Radio — If It’s New It’s Here, will air Tuesdays at 10 a.m. CST beginning March 15 on iHeartRadio. The show’s host, Peggy Smedley of the Peggy Smedley Show — The Voice of IoT — drives the show each week leading up to the largest international gathering in the Western Hemisphere for the construction industry — ConExpo-Con/AGG, March 7 to 11, 2017, in Las Vegas. The program takes a holistic view of the industry and provides a platform to raise awareness of the innovations in the construction industry and the opportunities they are creating. “ConExpo-Con/AGG helps industry executives keep pace with the latest in new equipment and product innovations,” said Rich Goldsbury, ConExpo-Con/AGG 2017 show chairman and president of Bobcat Company and Doosan. “Technology is critical to the future of the construction industry and ConExpo-Con/AGG Radio will help us to

continuously connect our audience with the most cutting edge innovations in the industry on an ongoing basis.” The show will feature industry experts who have firsthand knowledge to discuss the future of infrastructure, work sites and jobs in the industry. Show segments will address challenges and opportunities, future equipment technology, impacts technologies have on the market and ways to expand your business. The programs will be available as a downloadable podcast from the show Web site http://www.conexpoconagg.com/. “A weekly radio program with an innovative and entertaining supporter of the connected world is a great opportunity to keep our audience engaged,” said Sara Truesdale Mooney, vice president, exhibitions and business development. “We’re excited to be able to work with an internationally known speaker and media personality and we believe Peggy Smedley will be a tremendous ambassador for ConExpo-Con/AGG.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Construction Firms Find Ways to Add Staff, Keep Pace With Growing Demand AGC from page 1

ues to rise at a double-digit pace.” Construction employment totaled 6,672,000 in March, the most since December 2008, and is up by 301,000 jobs compared to a year ago, a 4.7 percent increase. That rate of increase was more than double the 2.0 percent rise in total nonfarm payroll employment since March 2015. Residential construction — comprising residential building and specialty trade contractors — increased by 13,400 jobs in March and by 166,000, or 6.8 percent, compared to a year ago. Nonresidential construction — building, specialty trades, and heavy and civil engineering construction firms — added 23,900 jobs for the month and 134,800 jobs compared to March 2015, a 3.4 percent increase. Meanwhile, the number of unemployed jobseekers in March who last worked in construction totaled 768,000, the lowest March total since 2001. The unemployment rate for such workers was 8.7 percent, a 10-year low

for March. Construction spending in February totaled $1.144 trillion at a seasonally adjusted annual rate, 0.5 percent below the upwardly revised January total but 10.3 percent higher than in February 2015, Simonson said. Private residential spending rose 0.9 percent for the month and 10.7 percent compared to February 2015. Spending on multifamily residential construction increased 0.9 percent for the month and 24.1 percent year-over-year, while single-family spending climbed 1.2 percent from January and 10.6 percent compared to February 2015. Private nonresidential construction spending slipped 1.3 percent for the month but gained 10.6 percent from a year earlier. Simonson observed that nearly every segment increased from 12 months before, with gains of more than 30 percent each for private office and lodging construction and more than 20 percent for amusement and recreation and private educational con-

struction. Public construction spending declined 1.7 percent from a month before but rose 9.2 percent from 12 months earlier. Spending on highway and street construction — the biggest public segment — slipped 2.1 percent for the month, following an exceptionally large increase in January, but was up 24.5 percent compared to February 2015. “Construction firms are finding a way to add staff to keep pace with growing demand for their services," said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association’s chief executive officer. "But the pool of available experienced labor is small and getting smaller, which is why we will continue to push for measures to expand recruiting and training opportunities for future workers."

Biggest Challenge Stems From the Sheer Size of the Project WIND from page 1

bringing the state’s first wind farm online by the end of the year. “We’re enjoying the fact the 18-month construction process generates business for local and regional companies. The longterm economic benefits of the project will be substantial, both for the participating landowners and the community, but it’s also important to see that local workers and companies can benefit from the type of services a construction project of this scale requires.” The total of landowner payments and taxes for the project will inject more than $1.1 million into the local economy each year, according to Copleman. “The project has enjoyed a lot of community support throughout the lengthy development process. A handful of local and regional companies are supplying everything from gravel to fuel to food to hotel rooms to the busy construction site, which is expected to peak at around 250 jobs later this year.” The wind farm project, featuring the private wind energy electric power generation facility, will be located in Perquimans and Pasquotank counties near Elizabeth City and Hertford on roughly 22,000 acres. The first phase is a 208 MW project, featuring 104 wind turbines. “Given the project’s small footprint, much of the land will continue to be farmed for corn, soybeans and wheat, as it is now. The network of new roads, the operations building and the turbines’ footprint themselves will take up less than two percent of the leased land,” said Copleman. A groundbreaking ceremony took place in July 2015. North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory joined business and community leaders in Elizabeth City to mark construction of the Amazon Wind Farm US East, powered by Iberdrola Renewables at Desert Wind. “The Amazon Wind Farm takes a significant step toward diversifying North Carolina’s energy resources,” Gov. McCrory said to reporters. “Bringing onshore wind production to North Carolina is part of my ‘all of the above’ energy strategy. By diversifying our energy resources, we can provide affordable, reliable and secure sources of energy that are environmentally clean and safe.” Frank Burkhartsmeyer, Iberdrola Renewables’ U.S. CEO said, “Breaking ground on North Carolina’s first wind farm is a perfect demonstration that getting to a competitive, clean energy future takes team effort. A wind farm of this scale and complexity wouldn’t be possible without Governor McCrory’s leadership, community support, and an exciting collaboration with Amazon Web Services.” Copleman said, “We were thrilled with how the groundbreaking went this summer. The event reflected all the hard work by the landowners, local and state officials and our customer, which went into the multi-year

process to bring the project this far.” As a result of the building period, almost a dozen permanent jobs will be based at the wind farm when it’s in full operation, currently scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2016. “This project will deliver substantial and long-term local economic benefits,” said Wayne Harris, economic developer of the Elizabeth City and Pasquotank County Economic Development Commission. “Not only will it be the first wind farm in the state, it will be the largest taxpayer in each of the counties where it gets built and put money into the pockets of local working families.” Copleman said, “We began the development and permitting process with our first meeting with interested landowners, and we broke ground this past summer. Most of the construction work to date has involved building the road network. Wind turbine components are slated to arrive in late May, and we plan to begin wind turbine erection in June.” There will be no homes within the project’s borders. Copleman called the location ideal. “All successful wind farm locations combine a handful of important characteristics — consistent wind, access to the electrical grid, compatible geography and a supportive community. Thanks to improving Iberdrola Renewables photo wind turbine technology, we’re able Construction work is under way in rural to evaluate areas of the country that northeastern North Carolina on the first utiliwe would have dismissed as not ty-scale wind farm in the state, and one of the being windy enough five or ten years first in the southeastern United States. ago, so the technology improvements have opened up areas of the country local community that will put a lot of people like northeastern North Carolina for explo- to work, which is why politicians across party lines have been supportive of wind ration. “The area itself, known locally as the power.” Various state and federal permits were ‘Desert,’ is a great fit, as the flat topography, agricultural use of the land and sparse popu- sought involving the U.S. Army Corps of the Federal Aviation lation lend themselves to building and oper- Engineers, ating a wind farm that will generate lots of Administration, the North Carolina Utilities revenue for the participating landowners and Commission and the North Carolina the community.

The biggest challenge on the project has involved the sheer size of the task at hand.

“Crews are building a network of approximately 60 miles of roads. That work continues, along with maintaining the roads we’ve already built. We’ve almost completed an area that will serve as a laydown yard and a concrete batch plant. We’re building a substation to interconnect the eventual wind farm and the electric grid.” So far, crews have not experienced any significant setbacks. “It’s been mostly road work for the past six months,” Copleman said. “The wet weather has posed some challenges.” Each turbine foundation uses 500 to 600 cu. yds. (382 to 458 cu m) of concrete. Equipment being used on the job includes dump trucks, graders, excavators, loaders, bulldozers, compactors and cranes. Gravel, concrete, steel, electrical and fiber optic cable and wind turbine components are the main materials required to complete the work. Each turbine will be a 2.0 MW Gamesa G114 model with a rotor diameter totaling 374 ft. (113 m), including a 182 ft. (55.5 m) blade and a 305 ft. (93 m) tower. With the blade pointing straight up, the total height is 492 ft. (149 m). The turbine is comprised of four tower sections, the rotor, three blades and the nacelle, which is the massive housing at the top of the tower for the gearbox and generator. Iberdrola Renewables is a subsidiary of Iberdrola USA and the U.S. renewable energy division of parent company IBERDROLA, S.A., which according to the company, is the largest renewable asset base of any company in the world. Iberdrola Renewables is headquartered in Portland, Ore., and has more than $10 billion of operating assets totaling more than 6,000 MW of owned and controlled wind and solar generation in the nation. To date, it owns and operate wind farms in 18 different states. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG

Drumcutters, Komatsu Offer Camelback Mountain Solution Years ago, the owners of a home on Camelback Mountain near Phoenix, Ariz., began removing approximately 14,400 cu. ft. (407.8 cu m) from the side of the mountain. They hoped to create what they called a “garage.” The 20- by 20-ft. (6- by 6-m) wide by 36-ft. (11 m) high space took years to create, using a combination of hydraulic drills and hammers. But work stalled when the original owners sold the property and the space sat unfinished — until this year, when new owners decided to complete the project. The house sits on the southwest facing side of the mountain, while the “garage” faces in a more northerly direction. The new owners’ goal was to have a walkway through the mountain connecting the garage to the living quarters. Employing the same hydraulic drills and hammers, the contractor quickly determined that another solution was needed to create the walkway from the garage to the home. Their limited efforts to open the passage through the mostly granite mountain resulted in noise and vibration complaints from the surrounding neighborhood, grinding the project to a slow crawl. In

Tim Schutte, regional sales manager of Drumcutters, points out the smooth finish left by the ER 650 compared to the holes left from the previous drilling effort.

the words of Mike Mitchell of Landis Mitchell Engineers, “The hammer was noisy and not at all cost-effective when you consider the time involved.” The engineering firm, which also owns the property, found the answer in a partnership between

The ER 650 attached easily to the stick of the Komatsu PC228.

Komatsu dealer Road Machinery and Drumcutters, a manufacturer of hydraulic attachments for cutting and grinding. The Drumcutters ER 650, which Mitchell had seen on a similar job in the area, is a revolving rotary drum cutter unit and is often used in tun-

neling. Using the attachment on a Komatsu PC228 LC has proven effective in tunneling — and quietly so — through the hard rock. The rock removal portion of the garage project, which includes the walkway up to the living quarters, was completed in late February, and

work on the entire project, which, in part, involves constructing a garage door, will wrap up soon. According to Mike Denton, account manager of Road Machinery, “in three weeks, the contractor was able to do the equivalent of nine months of work if he had been using the drilling/hammering method.” The ER 650’s 10,900 ft*lbf of cutting force was powered effectively by the Komatsu excavator. “It was the perfect application for the PC228 LC,” said Denton. “The Komatsu has the perfect combination of needed hydraulic power and torque to turn the drum cutter and the tight tail swing necessary to maneuver in the garage area.” In addition to cutting the 20- by 9- by 5-ft. (6- by 3- by 1.5-m) walkway, a “tool area” was cut farther into the mountain on the back side of the garage. All of this was accomplished in approximately three weeks, according to Tim Schutte, regional sales manager of Drumcutters. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

The walkway connecting the garage to the main house was cut through granite. Again the smooth finish created by the ER 650 is contrasted with the holes left by the previous drilling/hammering effort.

Landmark Chooses Volvo Off-Road Trucks for Job VOLVO from page 26

Cat rollers, and we’re running lots of big tractors, so we can pull disc and box blades behind them to keep haul roads for the trucks leveled up and keep ruts out. “We went with the Volvo off-road trucks because honestly, my experience with them is they are the best trucks on the marketplace. And ASC, our dealer, does a fantastic job of taking care of us. They are always very competitive, if not more competitive than some of their competitors. If there is an issue, they take care of it and we move on. They are just a pleasure to deal with.” And that’s how Mixson likes people to think of Landmark, too. Professional, honest and on time.“We’re not perfect,” Mixson said. “We make mistakes. The biggest thing with our company, if we make a mistake and we know it’s our mistake, we fix it. If you tell someone you are going to do it, you do it. It’s all about the people. The main thing at Landmark is the team. We really have a good team and that’s what makes us successful.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG

Work is about 90 percent complete on phase two, 70 percent on phase three, 10 percent on phase four and phase five is about to get under way.
