Ash Cloud Aside, Bauma 2010 Draws Well…22

Usually, the motoring public, tired of delays and detours, is anxious for disruptive road construction projects to be completed. But on the SR 840 project around Nashville, Tenn., it’s hard to imagine any motorist as eager to see the end as the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) and the contractors working on the project.

It’s been a long time coming. Planning for the project began back in 1986, as part of the state’s Better Roads Program to provide economic growth by improving access to communities in central Tennessee. However, work came to a halt in 2003 due to environmental issues and didn’t resume for several years.

When completed, this brand new four-

Bridge work in Williamson County, Tenn., is part of section four of the project.

With earthquakes rumbling in places like Haiti, Chile, Indonesia, the Solomon Islands and, ominously, the Mexican peninsula right below California, Americans surely wonder when The Big One will strike the United States. The good news is that seismic engineers, architects and contractors are preparing for that day by building structures that will withstand the shaking.

Yet it is a work in progress.

“All major buildings being designed in the United States are designed for earthquake resistance,” see QUAKE page 14

By Phillip Rawls ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

Shown here are steel self-centering moment resisting frame (SC-MRFs) tests and steel self-centering concentrically braced frame (SC-CBF) tests performed at Lehigh’s NEES Equipment Site. These systems are new concepts developed at Lehigh University for new construction as well as for seismic retrofit.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) The Alabama Legislature has approved a $1 billion compromise that would start the largest road building program in state history and create construction jobs during the recession.

The Senate approved the compromise 25-8 April 21 and the House agreed 86-13 the same night.

The spending plan won’t take effect unless passed by Alabama voters in a statewide referendum on the general election ballot Nov. 2. That’s when legislators also will be standing for election.

The bill’s sponsor, Sen. Lowell Barron, D-Fyffe, is see ROADS page 12

ST. LOUIS (AP) Top politicians from Missouri and Illinois joined the nation’s transportation chief in ceremoniously breaking ground April 19 on the first new Mississippi River bridge at congestionplagued St. Louis in some four decades.

The event largely was anticlimactic: Construction on the main span of the $670 million project got under way weeks ago after a ground-breaking ceremony first planned in February was foiled because dignitaries from Washington were snowed in and couldn’t make it to St. Louis.

But given another chance, Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood heralded the new span as vital in easing snarls at one of the nation’s busiest crossings — and proof that two neighboring states, despite years of bickering over financing that delayed the project, ultimately could make it happen.

“It takes a long time to get big things done,” LaHood said during the pomp staged at the state line on the Eads Bridge, where a dump truck from each state flanked dignitaries including Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn, Republican Sen. Kit Bond of Missouri and Rep. Jerry Costello, a Democrat from nearby Belleville, Ill., widely considered the project’s catalyst.

LaHood said he hoped the event illustrates “that when people put down their agendas and put aside their egos and do what the people want, great things can happen.”

Scheduled for completion in the middle part of this decade, the four-lane, cablestayed bridge will divert Interstate 70 traffic from an existing bridge that’s one of just two in the nation that accommodate three freeways. The plan also allows for the bridge, designed to be two lanes in each direction, to

be expanded by a lane each way.

The project, meant to relieve the 47-yearold Poplar Street Bridge now used by more than 120,000 vehicles daily, is being funded by a mix of state funds and the $239 million U.S. taxpayers are kicking in.

Until both states struck a deal in early 2008, the project was consistently downsized and stalled by chronic haggling between Illinois and Missouri over financing even as traffic across the river continued to mushroom.

In the early 2000s, the new span was conceived to be eight lanes, cost $1.6 billion and be named the Ronald Wilson Reagan Memorial Bridge, ideally becoming a “signature bridge” and possible tourist draw near St. Louis’ towering Gateway Arch.

That price tag later got chopped to $910 million, but the project still got snagged because of Missouri’s insistence that it be a tollway — something Illinois flatly rejected as potentially onerous on the tens of thousands of Illinois residents who commute daily to work in St. Louis and its Missouri suburbs.

Illinois later proposed a sister bridge to an existing span between the states, calling it affordable at half the price at as much as $450 million. That structure would carry four lanes of traffic — all westbound — after crews turned all lanes on the existing bridge to eastbound ones.

Missouri panned that as no long-term solution.

Both states ended the impasse in February 2008, announcing a $640 million compromise after Missouri relented on the tolls. The cost has since grown to $670 million because bids came in higher than expected.

The new bridge is expected to carry about 40,000 vehicles a day initially, up to 55,000 vehicles daily by 2030.

First Steel Beam Placed for S.C.’s New Boeing Plant NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) Crews have reached another milestone as they build Boeing Co.’s new South Carolina plant.

The Post and Courier of Charleston reported company executives were on hand April 5 to watch the first steel beam placed for the plant, which will build Boeing’s 787 jetliner.

A rainy winter has kept construction man-

agers scrambling, but the company still expects the 1.2 million sq.-ft. North Charleston plant to open by July 2011. The facility will be big enough for two of the new jets to fit side-by-side.

Boeing picked South Carolina to build its latest jetliner, expanding from its longtime Washington manufacturing base to take advantage of incentives and a nonunion work force.

Nortrax Hosts Dig, Dine and Drive Event in Manchester

D

ig, Dine & Drive, hosted by Nortrax, was the biggest event going in the city of Manchester, Tenn., on March 24 and 25.

Roughly 200 attendees checked things out at the Coffee County Fairgrounds on each of the two days.

As guests arrived, they were greeted with welcome gifts and were given a comprehensive presentation of the Tier IV emissions system by John Deere representatives. After the presentation, the “Dig” portion of the event commenced with live equipment demonstrations of several John Deere machines, including a 764 high-speed dozer.

Scott Bayless, John Deere product consultant,

gave a complete walk-around of the 764, going over some of the latest technology built into the machine. Bayless pointed out that a standard feature on the 764 that makes it almost plug-andplay ready for grade control adaptability is the integrated grade control (IGC) valve, which is the electro-hydraulic blade control valve. For the model on display, the machine was equipped with a Topcon MC2 system. Bayless stated that the 764 is easily adaptable to any grade control system a customer may have and said, “We feel this is the best approach rather than locking our customers into one specific brand of grade control.”

(L-R): Nortrax representatives Art Gilfus, Marty Hlawati and Brad Butler are joined by their Bomag Americas district representative, Jerry Fitch.

It was father-son day at the demo event as Aaron Duggin (L) of Duggin Construction Co., Christiana, Tenn. brought his sons, Tanner, aged 12, and Cole, aged 8, to see the newest John Deere and Hitachi products.

Both boys already know how to run the big excavators.

After operating the John Deere 764 high speed dozer, a TDOT Administrator, said that it was the smoothest ride he’d ever had in a dozer.

Topcon representatives were on hand to provide information on the most effective use of the latest Topcon systems. (L-R) are Scot Floyd, Topcon, Greenville, Tenn.; Brett Dudley, Earl Dudley Inc., Birmingham, Ala.; Charles Roberts, customer and survey crew chief for TRM Construction, Hendersonville, Tenn.; and Rob Binder, Earl Dudley Inc., Nashville, Tenn.

Geologists Blame Landslides in Western N.C. on Soil, Man-Made Development ASHEVILLE, N.C. (AP) Heavy rain and snow are being blamed in part for the recent spate of damaging landslides in western North Carolina, but geologists also say the soil and manmade development are playing a role.

The Citizen-Times of Asheville reported April 4 that landslides, mudslides and rock slides in North Carolina and eastern Tennessee have destroyed parts of three major highways and damaged at least five houses in the past six months.

A massive rock slide in October closed a stretch of Interstate 40 in the far western part of North Carolina.

Crews have been working ever since to clear the boulders and drill rock bolts into the mountain to prevent future slides.

On Feb. 5, a 30-ft. wall of mud and rocks swept down Buck Mountain near Maggie Valley clearing a swath 175 ft. wide in places. It damaged at least three homes and cut off access to 37 others.

Macon County resident Mike Boggan had to move out of his home when a slow-moving landslide made his property unstable and led local offi-

cials to condemn it. He is staying with friends while still making payments on the home. But he doesn’t know when he might be able to return.

“I just hope that stuff like this doesn’t happen to anybody else,” he said.

State geologists said the soil in Macon County is so soft it can be removed with a hand trowel.

“It has the worst of both worlds,” said Rick Wooten, a senior geologist with the North Carolina Geological Survey. “It has the plane of weakness it inherited from the bedrock, but the mass has weathered to the point where it’s lost the strength of what it had.”

Whether the problems are inherent in the soil or man-made, one key, geologists say, is water.

Last year, Asheville got 62.13 in. of rain — the second-wettest year on record behind 1973’s nearly 65 in. — according to the National Weather Service. The area also has had heavy snowfalls this winter.

The snow and wet weather delayed cleanup of I-40 for a month, but North Carolina Transportation Department officials expected to have all but a mile

of the westbound lanes open by the end of April.

Varshana McGaughey and her husband built their home in Macon County two years ago. They haven’t had the kind of damage Boggan saw, but worry about what all the rain is doing to the ground beneath their home.

“My concern is about the stability of the whole mountain,” she said, “and what will happen two months down the road or two years down the road.”

The Macon County planning board will soon debate an ordinance governing development on steep slopes and state lawmakers are considering bills governing mountain construction.

It even has become an issue in one North Carolina House race.

Incumbent Rep. Bruce Goforth, DBuncombe, is sponsoring a state law that would require counties to come up with their own regulations for steepslope development. His opponent, Democrat Patsy Keever thinks there should be one set of standards for the whole state rather than a county-bycounty patchwork of standards.

Plan Predicted to Generate Thousands of Jobs in Area ROADS from page 1

PLEASE CALL DOUG MEHNER OR DAVID MEHRTENS (913) 371-3822

optimistic voters will embrace the plan because it would generate thousands of jobs to help lower the state’s 11 percent unemployment rate.

“There is nothing more we need in the state today than jobs,” Barron said.

The Alabama Road Builders Association, which pushed Barron’s legislation, said it would kick in about the time Alabama finishes using the $513.7 million it received for road projects from the federal stimulus program.

Earlier in the legislative session, the House and Senate passed different versions of Barron’s bill. A conference committee worked out the compromise April 21.

The bill provides $100 million a year for 10 years from natural gas revenue in a state savings account called the Alabama Trust Fund. The trust fund keeps getting revenue each year from natural gas wells drilled in state-owned waters along the Alabama coast.

The bill contains a provision that will suspend the $100 million allocation if the trust fund drops below $2 billion.

The bill allocates money to every congressional district and every county.

The House version originally contained many special projects, but the compromise trimmed it back to a few, including $20 million for mass transit in Jefferson County, $2 million for an Interstate 59-U.S. 280 connector in Birmingham, $5 million for the State Docks in Mobile and $1 million for an Interstate 10 connector at Dothan.

Some House members complained about the trimming, but Barron said he was pleased. “It’s not a Christmas tree,” he said.

Opponents in the House and Senate questioned taking money out of the Alabama Trust Fund because its interest earnings help fund state agencies, and reducing the size of the trust fund makes less money available for the services those agencies provide.

“The savings account may be needed for more essential functions of government,” said Sen. Trip Pittman, R-Daphne.

But House budget committee Chairman John Knight, D-Montgomery, said the spending plan is good. “You can’t neglect the infrastructure of this state,” he said.

La. Company Sues to Force Use of Its Road Product BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) A Louisiana company is suing city and parish officials to force them to use a road building material it manufactures.

Bear Industries Inc. argued that its product, a calcium sulfate blend, would allow the city-parish to build roads more cheaply, saving taxpayers money.

Russel Wray, an attorney of the company, said the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development has tested and approved use of the material as a base course layer for road construction and contended that the city-parish has no legal authority to forbid its use.

Wray didn’t immediately return calls April 4 seeking more details about the lawsuit.

Baton Rouge officials said the product — sold under the trade name Bearlite — hasn’t been proven to their satisfaction and isn’t suitable for city road projects.

The lawsuit seeks a court order that would block the city-parish from approving any new contracts for road construction until bid specifications are changed to allow use of

the product.

A hearing for the suit hasn’t been set.

“The law requires that products of equal value and utility be allowed to compete with one another,” Wray said.

City-parish officials have not filed a written response to the suit yet. But in a letter dated Sept. 16, the city-parish’s chief engineer, Bryan Harmon, cited several concerns about using blended calcium sulfates as a base course for road construction projects.

The base course is a layer applied in building up a road before paving it with asphalt or concrete. Base courses provide additional load distribution and contribute to drainage and frost protection.

Harmon wrote that it “would be unwise for the city-parish to introduce an unproven product having documented problematic moisture and corrosive characteristics that could ultimately result in expensive project failures.”

He said it is more suited to “rural type projects” and is too corrosive to allow it to be used adjacent to landscaped medians.

Seismic Engineers Believe in Buildings With Elasticity QUAKE from page 1

Mark Sarkisian said. He should know. As director of the Structural Engineering Studio in the San Francisco office of international architectural firm Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, the engineer is familiar with trends in mid-rise and high-rise construction.

As a specialist in seismic design, Sarkisian understands that variables in seismic events make outcomes for buildings somewhat unpredictable. An urban area is severely or lightly damaged in a quake as determined by, among other factors, the intensity and duration of the tremor and whether it hits a prepared area like the West Coast or somewhere eastward where building codes and expectations are more relaxed.

“It’s going to happen,” Sarkisian said of the likelihood of a major earthquake striking the United States, “and I think it’s not just going to be California that’s hit.

The most significant jolt might be along the New Madrid fault in the Midwest. Or on the East Coast.”

A quake in New York or Connecticut in all likelihood wouldn’t be as severe as one on the West Coast, Sarkisian acknowledged, given the underlying lay of the land next to the Atlantic. But a tremor in the eastern states doesn’t need to be as strong to inflict lots and lots of damage. That’s because most existing structures there weren’t built with quakes in mind.

The situation in Haiti is a reminder of the relationship of quake intensity and building codes.

In January, at least 200,000 people died there when weakly constructed buildings in and around Port-auPrince collapsed following a tremor measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale.

The next month, Chile was struck with a much more intense quake — an 8.8 — yet fewer than 1,000 died. The difference in the two outcomes is Chile’s vigorous economy. The relative prosperity of the South American nation compared to Haiti had allowed Chilean engineers and contractors to design and build more earthquake-resistant buildings and bridges. By and large, Chile’s buildings didn’t collapse; Haiti’s did.

In the United States, lack of prosperity is not the problem.

Rather, the question of whether to engineer for earthquakes has been keyed to the likelihood of a tremor happening.

“In California, all the newer buildings are built to be at least earthquake resistant,” Sarkisian said. “It’s on everyone’s mind here.

Codes are very, very strict. This is not the case in areas where they are not expecting an earthquake to occur.”

Building Safer Buildings Unlike in Japan, where most general contractors conduct earthquake research in their own labs, America’s anti-tremor techniques are formulated and tested on university campuses. California academia has a vested interested in the subject, of course, being at the epicenter of potential quakes in the United States. Two universities there each lay claim to having had the “father of earthquake engineering” on their faculties — John A. Blume at Stanford University and George W. Housner at the California Institute of Technology.

But 14 member institutions of the Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (NEES) are scattered across the country, from Oregon State University to the University of Texas to Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pa., and the University at Buffalo in New York. On the various schools’giant shake tables, engineers try to advance the understanding of “how earthquakes and tsunamis affect man-made infrastructure, such as roads, buildings, port facilities and public utility systems,” as NEES literature declares.

Two benchmarks are used for a structure’s building performance in a seismic event. One is the “life safety” level, which means a building should be able to come through a moderate-to-severe earthquake with heavy damage but be repairable and, perhaps, “occupiable.” The second is the “collapse prevention” level, which means a moderate-to-severe quake leaves a building still standing but realistically not repairable nor safe for occupancy. In either scenario, an earthquake-resistant building is not supposed to fall down.

“Damage is supposed to happen, but collapse is not,” said James M. Ricles, professor of structural engineering at Lehigh University.

In a moderate quake, perhaps a 6.0 or 7.0, some building drift is allowable — that is, a building might be left slightly out of plumb — and nonstructural walls might be compromised, but the essential integrity of the structure is supposed to be intact. Stronger tremors can ratchet up the damage but still not topple the structure.

The old school of thought on resisting quakes was to make a building or bridge as rigid as possible. Faith in that ideal was shaken

erated lateral movement of the earth during a quake, minimizing the strain on vertical load-bearing structural elements.

“Essentially, it decouples the building from the ground so ground motion is not directly transmitted into the superstructure of the building,” is how Sarkisian explained the method. “The building above the isolation plane is moving in a much softer way.”

Higher in a structure, passive and active dampers are placed where they can absorb some of the shake and dissipate the energy working on the structure’s framework. The devices soak up some of the forces threatening to shake

somewhat in 1964 when a 7.5 earthquake struck Niigata, Japan.

The ground was the culprit, giving way under several apartment buildings. The buildings themselves remained structurally intact, however, though afterward they leaned severely and, in one case, lay on its side. The five-story buildings had to be demolished.

The new philosophy is to make buildings and bridges resilient, holding themselves together elastically rather than rigidly, bending but not breaking under the lateral and vertical stresses produced by a tremor. Abuilding still needs to rise on firm ground, of course, but from the foundation skyward, give-andtake is the operating phrase now.

At the base, taller buildings are often isolated from the ground through use of ball bearings and plates. The idea is to reduce the impact on a building of the accel-

loose key structural members.

One of the most promising newer techniques, according to Ricles, is the “self-centering steel system.” A 1994 earthquake near Northridge, a Los Angeles, Calif., neighborhood, surprised many engineers because buildings collapsed that were thought to be resistant to tremors. One of the lessons learned there was that connections between columns and beams fracture under strain.

The result is development of something called post-tension strand technology. A building’s steel framework is connected not by welds or bolts but by tensed strands of steel that yield further under stress but then snap back, pulling key structural members with them. In concrete pillars and beams, the strands run through the concrete but are not bonded to it and perform the same function:

they absorb lateral or vertical movement that would crack the concrete and then close any gaps opened under stress.

“The cost of self-centered steel systems is no more than conventional construction,” Ricles said, addressing an obvious bottom-line question.

He believes the new system is an example of how theoretical research on campuses leads to improved construction techniques and makes the United States a leader in innovative earthquakeresistant building.

“The question is, how can we take what we are doing today and do it better.”

The construction industry is “very supportive” of campus researchers like himself who foster new thinking about building techniques, Ricles said.

“If they can use an existing skill set but in a different combination, they are very receptive to it. Of course, in the long run they are going to benefit, from a business point of view. They don’t want to build something that is unsafe.”

Designing the Future Architects are stretching to produce “earthquake-proof” buildings that will survive tremors in good overall shape. “ That’s a different level of design,” Sarkisian said from his office in San Francisco. “An earthquake-proof building or bridge or other structure is designed not just to be resistant but to coexist with an earthquake so damage is minimal.”

Besides protecting an investment in a building, truly quakeproof structures would help protect the environment, he said. When damage after an earthquake is lessened, there is less material to repair or replace and less impact on the environment.

“Disposing of all of that debris and making all those repairs have a major effect on raw material and the carbon that is required to make it.”

However, the first concern is human safety. Eliminating the peril to life that comes from total collapse of a structure is Job 1. see QUAKE page 16

Older Building Materials, Methods Studied for Retrofits QUAKE from page 14

Sarkisian believes another connecting system for structural members holds great promise of reducing the potential of structures to collapse and kill.

“What we’ve been doing is rethinking the joints,” the engineer said of the research in which he is involved. The goal is to create joints that “behave much more naturally in an earthquake.”

The new joints function much like the ball-and-socket connections in our bodies. The plates in the joints are curved and rotate naturally as a building experiences vertical and horizontal movement, effectively softening abrupt jolts from below and turning jerks into gentle swaying.

“We’re just getting started with these,” said Sarkisian, who has patents on two elements of the joints. “They’re a new thing and we think they are the future.”

He added that the joints are appropriate for a building of any height. In some respects, mid-rise structures might benefit more than high-rise buildings because the joints allow the shorter structures to become less rigid, to become more limber and less prone to fracture under stress.

A growing number of general contractors employ the building techniques that give new buildings more survivability. They are, of course, more numerous in areas where earth tremors are a respected hazard. Sarkisian cited Rudolph and Sletten Construction Company out of Redwood City, Calif., and New York-based Turner Construction Company, which has offices the length of California.

A high-profile California project designed by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill that utilized such techniques is Oakland’s Cathedral of Christ the Light. It is an airy structure of glass, steel and relatively elastic Douglas fir and sits on a seismic-isolated base. Webcor Builders, Inc. of San Mateo, Calif., erected the cathedral. The building is expected to withstand a 1,000year earthquake, which is to say a relatively severe one. Good thing, too, because Oakland sits astraddle the Hayward fault, a parallel tectonic fracture to the longer and

nearby San Andreas fault.

The maximum quake for which Skidmore partners will design a structure is what is termed a 2,500year event — somewhere around an 8 on the Richter scale, which measures the release of seismic energy in a quake. Because of the exponential nature of rising levels on the scale, numbers above 8 become very problematic for engineers and architects.

Cost also is a limiting factor.

The bottom line for any project owner considering earthquakeresistant technology in a new building or bridge is in the costreturn analysis. Notwithstanding the common desire to protect human life, as the preventive cost of earthquake resistance rises against the replacement cost of a building, prevention begins to lose its appeal.

“Cost is the ultimate decision,” said Lehigh’s professor Ricles. “It all comes down to the value of a structure.”

Old Buildings, Old Materials Questions of value and cost are even more central to retrofitting of buildings. Strengthening an existing structure to withstand an earthquake can cost anywhere from 25 percent to 100 percent of the building’s value, according to Chris Poland, chairman and CEO of the Degenkolb firm of consulting engineers, which is headquartered in San Francisco and has offices up and down the West Coast.

“That’s why more of them aren’t fixed,” he says. “The decision is very much based on how much the thing is going to cost.” The cost factor includes availability of funding at the time of a decision and also how disruptive (hence, how costly) the process of retrofitting would be to tenants of a building.

Various ways of paying for retrofitting projects have been tried, including issuance of municipal bonds, enactment of neighborhood taxing mechanisms and a simple requirement that retrofitting of a building by new owners occur whenever the building changes hands.

Poland says two categories of buildings are of special concern to California authorities.

One is the popular five- or sixstory apartment house constructed of wood with the first floor a parking garage. This configuration generally leads to a collapse of the superstructure into the lower area, which has fewer supporting walls.

The second concern is the 5- to 20story living unit, usually a condominium, constructed of concrete but built “not nearly strong enough” to withstand a heavy quake.

story.”

“We know what we are doing today in designing and building for earthquake resistance,” Poland says, “but that still leaves the older buildings to fix.”

Many smaller California contractors are working to upgrade the seismic survivability of homes and low-rise commercial structures.

The Seismic Retrofit Association was formed in Costa Mesa to inform property owners and man-

“We know what we are doing today in designing and building for earthquake resistance, but that still leaves the older buildings to fix.”

Chris Poland Degenkolb

These two kinds of structures are common in San Francisco and Los Angeles. “We need to try to figure out how to identify the vulnerable buildings and bring them up to the new standard,” Poland says. Cost is the big barrier “to getting this done, but the consequences of losing a large amount of housing stock is disastrous.”

As regards commercial buildings, a 1994 legislative edict required California hospitals to be built, or retrofitted, so they can survive a tremor and remain operable.

This law came into being after the Northridge quake disrupted operation of 23 hospitals. The final compliance deadline is 2030.

As a practical matter, the legislated requirement has been a boon to architects and builders in the state. “That’s a big anchor,” Poland acknowledges. “It has pretty much insulated the industry against economic downturns.”

The Degenkolb executive believes recent earthquakes have proven the value of today’s engineered responses to shaking ground. Where the latest techniques and principles were applied, it has been “a very big success

agers about the benefits of strengthening their buildings. The association connects the owners with certified structural engineers and companies that do the work.

Retrofitting conventional buildings with braces and rods to increase the chances of the buildings surviving one of Mother Nature’s fits is popular, especially in places like California. For instance, the Seismic Retrofit Association was formed in Costa Mesa to inform property owners and managers about the benefits of strengthening their buildings. The association connects them with certified structural engineers and companies that do the work.

Typically, the strengthening agents are anchors that more securely connect walls and horizontal members, or steel rods that connect parallel beams. Shear walls also are constructed to undergird top-heavy structures and structural members are reinforced with concrete or wrapped with a fiber composite material.

In each case, a property owner has to determine what level of performance he wants from his retro-

fitted building and how much he wants to spend. Some of the cost of the work is offset by improved marketability of the building and possibly lower insurance premiums.

In light of new technology, researchers are reexamining older structural materials. Wooden multi-story structures are being researched anew with the goal of making them less vulnerable to tremors. Tall wood-framed units have been built on shaking tables and their performance tabulated by university diagnostic equipment.

Researchers have learned that altering nailing patterns and running vertical rods through successive floors at key intersections gives the buildings flexibility to move without toppling.

Masonry walls, which have failed so tragically in places like Haiti, are being re-examined and reconfigured with some encouraging results. A stucco panel system for low-rise structures has been developed that seems to withstand quakes without much damage.

But there remains much to learn about coping when the ground begins to shake. Ricles has been chasing earthquakes — or at least following them — for 30 years.

Through the decades, he has been in the vicinity of several tremors.

He said the dynamic power of the earth can be awesome at that critical moment when an evermoving continental plate, having hung up on another plate, suddenly breaks free and lunges forward.

The sudden movement unleashes enough power to literally move mountains.

“It’s like being in a boat,” the professor said. “You kind of go with the flow. You recognize there is not much you can do because it is very, very powerful. You really just pray.”

If American architects, engineers and general contractors continue designing and building structures that can withstand the gigantic force of earth-cracking tremors, they will answer prayers uttered around the world.

One feature that the GP has over the G model is the ‘return to straight’ feature where you push a button on the articulation and it returns back to center on its own. These machines are prepared to accommodate any automatic grade control systems. When we say accommodate, we mean that a customer does not have to install any redundant valving. It’s all EH valving which is in place, ready to plug in. Put in a base kit and it’s ready to go.”

Miner added that cross slope is standard on the GP and is ideal for governmental customers.

Having rubber tracks would allow us to use it on the highway and to be able to run the machine across the road and through intersections. It would give us a lot of versatility and portability.

With budget constraints it’s tough to consider now, but a machine with both dozer and grader capabilities might make it very costeffective and worth considering for future purchase.”

Prizes and giveaways were presented throughout the two days, including a John Deere riding mower and a two-week rental of a John Deere 310J backhoe. Factory representatives from John Deere, Morbark, Bomag, Topcon and other manufacturers were on hand to promote their products and services.

Carroll Pons is the director of heavy equipment operations for Plaquemines Parish, LA. After Hurricane Katrina hit, he knew he’d have a tough time getting his equipment working again to help in the clean-up. But he never expected anything like this. The parish’s Doosan excavator had been submerged in 20 feet of saltwater for two weeks. Part of a roof was stuck in the boom. Though he thought it was a goner, it was worth a try. So Pons called M&L Industries, his Doosan dealer for 10 years. They drained 60 gallons of seawater from the engine compartment and did some minor repairs. Four hours later, our excavator roared to life and headed off to help clean up. Talk about durability! Want to see for yourself what a Doosan can do? Tell us you want a free demo.

Bauma 2010 Exceeds Expectations

B

auma 2010 has marked a turnaround in the international construction machinery industry, ushering in the hoped-for change in sentiment, according to Bauma officials. And this was despite the ban on air travel, which impacted on the first few days of the fair.

“The mood in the industry shows that in Europe the bottom of the cycle is now behind us,” said Ralf Wezel, secretary-general of CECE, the Committee for European Construction Equipment. “Confidence has returned. Of course at the start of the fair the exhibitors felt the lack of many customers from Asia and America — but in the second half of Bauma, this improved considerably. Messe München’s crisis management in the days impacted by volcanic ash was outstanding.”

In doing so, he confirmed the expectations of the sector as outlined by Christof Kemmann, chairman of the VDMA Construction Equipment and Building Materials Machinery Industry Association, at the Main Press Conference for Bauma 2010 on the first day of the fair.

Although the ban on air travel in Europe prevented visitors — and in the end approximately 50 exhibitors from overseas — from coming to the fair, the mood at the venue among the approximately 3,150 registered exhibitors from 53 countries was good by the close of the fair.

Already by the midway point of the fair, a number of exhibitors were reporting more sales than they had expected.

“The good old times are coming back: the figures for sales taken at the fair far exceed our expectations. We reckon we will be able to match the volume we took at the record Bauma in 2007. This is a clear signal that at Zeppelin-Cat, too, business is moving forward again after the difficult year of 2009,” said Michael Heidemann, managing director of Zeppelin and CEO of Zeppelin Baumaschinen GmbH, Germany.

Michikazu Okada, vice-president of Hitachi Sumitomo Heavy Industries Construction Crane Co. Ltd., Japan, added, “We had a lot of new business opportunities, some of which already resulted in unexpected conclusions of sale.”

The representative survey of exhibitors conducted by TNS Infratest showed that Bauma 2010 is marking a change in mood following a year of crisis in 2009, and that this change was being felt in many international markets, with few exceptions.

Almost half the exhibitors are expecting the economic situation to improve.

Even before the fair started, it was evident that worldwide the sector was optimistic. Bauma had 663,774 sq. yds.

(555,000 sq m) of space, all fully booked, and saw 60 percent of the exhibitors comsee BAUMA page 43

More than 415,000 visitors from more than 200 countries attended Bauma 2010.

Kenworth T800 Liquefied Natural Gas Trucks Now Available Kenworth T800 Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) trucks are now available for factory order and production.

The Kenworth T800 LNG truck offers performance and efficiency for heavy duty port, freight and vocational applications. The vehicle is equipped with the Westport Innovations LNG fuel system and Westport GX 15-L engine, which provides up to 450 hp (335 kW) and 1,650 lb.-ft. of torque and meets U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board emissions certification standards.

The Westport GX engine is based on the Cummins ISX 15-L engine.

“Customers who purchase Kenworth T800 LNG trucks make a strong commitment towards a better environment, and also can benefit from fuel cost savings, tax credits, state air quality grants and lower regulatory fees,” said Andy Douglas, Kenworth national sales manager for specialty markets.

A typical Class 8 truck using the cleaner burning LNG fuel may reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) and

greenhouse gas emissions by up to an estimated 33 percent and 20 percent, respectively, compared to a diesel-fueled truck. LNG fuel also may cost from 50 cents to $1 per gallon less than the equivalent diesel fuel.

The T800 LNG truck, which offers an operating range of at least 300 to 500 mi. (483 to 804 km), has a large dash-mounted display to monitor the LNG fuel level. LNG fuel tanks can be configured to suit a range of customer requirements. The vehicle is available with a day cab, Kenworth Extended Day Cab or 38-in. (96.5 cm) Kenworth AeroCab sleeper.

Kenworth T800 LNG trucks may qualify for up to $28,800 in IRS tax credits. Under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, these trucks also may qualify for Diesel Emissions Reduction Act grant money for those truck operators who purchase new T800 LNG vehicles, then permanently remove an equal number of aged existing diesel-fueled trucks from the marketplace in exchange. The trucks also may be eligible for state or provincial emissions credits.

The Kenworth T800 LNG truck is equipped with the Westport Innovations LNG fuel system and Westport GX 15-L engine, which provides up to 450 hp (335 kW) and 1,650 lb.-ft. of torque.

TDOT Fixes Issues That Weren’t Considered in First Plan NASHVILLE from page 1

lane roadway will loop around Nashville to the south, linking I-40 between Dickson and Lebanon, with connections to Interstates 65 and 24. The 78-mi. city bypass is intended to alleviate congestion due to growth in the area and should spur economic development. As Kelly Garrett, TDOT project manager, explained, “This is much further out than the 440 loop just outside the city.”

Of the 78 mi. encompassed by this new route, 60 mi. are currently open to traffic, with approximately 18 mi. remaining under construction in Williamson County. Work on the portion of SR 840 from SR 100 to SR 46 (Pinewood Road) began in July 2007, while the other project, which stretches from Leipers Creek Road to State Route 6 (US 31/Columbia Pike), began in early 2009. The contract for the final portion was awarded in February 2010.

Completely state-funded, the project uses no federal funds.

“That’s why it’s taking so long,” Garrett said.

But other issues also have slowed work on the project.

One, Two, Three, Four The goal is for the entire route to be completed and open to traffic by December 2012. However, as Tim Crunk, construction manager with Nashville-based Gresham Smith and Partners, explained, this project was divided into four sections, awarded in three contracts, each with separate time lines and bonuses for early completion.

The contract for sections one and two from Leipers Creek Road to Columbia Pike (SR 6) was let to bid in December 2008. Bell & Associates LP is the prime, with a winning bid of $87,360,841.47.

Steve Stewart, construction manager with Gresham Smith and Partners, said work on this 8-mi.

(12.8 km) portion is 39 percent complete and includes grading, drainage and construction of bridges and retaining walls.

Running the numbers, he counted 24 bridges, 22 box culverts and box bridges, 15,850 ft. (4,831 m) of storm drain, 6,000 lineal ft.

(1,828 m) of new stream location (5,000 ft. [1,524 m] of which is complete), 1500 ft. (457 m) of water line (90 percent of which is

complete), 34,000 trees and shrubs to be planted and 6 million cu. yds.

(4,587, 329 cu m) of dirt – including 600,000 of borrow and the rest relocated from onsite. Additional work includes replacing gas lines and relocating TVA transmission lines. The estimated completion date is Dec. 31, 2011.

“To speed the process,” Crunk added, “the state included a $3 million ‘no-excuse’ bonus for early completion.”

The paving contract is expected

paving. This 3.4-mi. (5.4 km) stretch will require 2.6 million cu. yds. (1.9 cu m) of road and drainage. Stewart estimated that the project is two percent complete and that three percent of the time has lapsed, with an expected completion date of Oct. 31, 2012, and $2.5 million on the line for early completion. The paving contract is expected to be let in late 2011.

There are additional milestone paving bonuses for sections 3 and 4.

future expansion of the four-lane loop.

Budget also might have played a part in that decision. Plans to construct a northern loop of SR 840 north of Nashville were put on hold when the Tennessee General Assembly ordered TDOT to discontinue further studies and planning because of state budget problems and the high cost of major highway construction in that area.

An entire circular loop would be about 178 mi. (286 km) long and require extensive and costly amounts of excavation, soil relocation and bridge construction due to the hilly terrain north of the city. In October 2003, the Department of Transportation placed the northern loop project into an indefinite hold situation, citing a lack of documented transportation needs.

The transportation and economic needs south of Nashville warrant the expense. In fact, Tennessee

to be let in late 2011.

The contract for Section 4 from Highway 100 to Pinewood Road (SR 46) was let to bid in July 2007.

Highways Inc. is the prime, with a bid of $44,215,290.68. The work entails grading for 6.1 mi. (9.8 km) of new construction, drainage and construction of 10 bridges and retaining walls. It will require 2.7 million cu. yds. (2 million cu m) of road and drainage excavation.

Current schedules indicate this section could be open to traffic by the end of 2010. Excluding the paving, work is 93 percent complete with 79 percent of the time lapsed. As Stewart confirmed, work is on schedule, with an expected completion date of Dec. 31, 2010, and a $2 million no-excuse bonus for early completion. The paving contract for this section was let in February 2010 and won by Eubank Asphalt Paving & Sealing of Charlotte, Tenn., for $55.1 million.

recommendations were accepted

by Commissioner Gerald Nicely for consideration, who said that the new roadway “serves an important transportation purpose while being responsive to community concerns.”

TDOT also worked with the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, utilizing the Context Sensitive Solutions approach. The remaining projects are being constructed under stringent guidelines designed to protect the environment. The SR 840 projects have been the driving force behind monumental changes in the way TDOT handles large construction projects across the state.

“We now take extreme measures to protect the environment,” Garrett stated.

Dirty Work One of the main issues TDOT faces in environmental protection is erosion control. The area features hills, valleys and Tier 2 streams.

“There’s a lot of water,” Garrett acknowledged.

Because they must keep the water clean, work is monitored by the USGS for turbidity and temperature and each contractor has Erosion Prevention Sediment Control supervisors and a dedicated crew.

While much of the area consists of a mixture of dirt and clay, many parts of sections one and two are made up of Chattanooga shale.

Chattanooga shale, deposited at the end of the Devonian Period, is found across much of central and eastern United States. It is the source rock for the naturally occurring oil and gas fields in Tennessee, and in some areas, oil is drilled from it. Due to its uranium content, Chattanooga Shale is regarded as a “low-grade vast reserves” source for nuclear fuel; because of its carbon content, the shale has sometimes been burned for a heat source.

However, it also can produce adverse effects on the environment. Chattanooga Shale contains a significant amount of pyrite; as it erodes, it releases sulfur into streams, increasing acidity.

Therefore, stated Garrett, when it’s see NASHVILLE page 54

Crushing, Screening & Recycling Section FAE USAHosts Customer Appreciation and Demo Day at Its Ga. Headquarters

C

ustomers, distributors and a group of international visitors turned out for FAE USA’s customer appreciation and demo day at its North American headquarters in Flowery Branch, Ga. Representatives of the Italian Trade Commission and the Greater Hall County (Ga.) Chamber of Commerce were in attendance to show their support for the event. A full day of activities kicked off with breakfast and a presentation of the vast array of FAE and PrimeTech machines. Then, attendees were transported to a nearby Gainesville, Ga., demo site, to see the machines and attachments at work.

Despite heavy rain, the outdoor demonstration was a huge success. A few FAE USA customers brought their own machines to demonstrate. Alex and Cathy Cornelius of Cornelius Farms had their John Deere 8530 equipped with an FAE SSH 225 soil stabilizer delivered to the site. Alex said they’ve found that their machine and attachment combo serves them well in their agricultural and grinding business and are able to grind up to 20 in. deep with their attachment.

Kevin Knolls of 3K Excavating in Alabama trucked in his Kobelco SK 160LC with an FAE UML 125 forestry mulcher. Knolls said the machine is working great for him in his land clearing business. He said the mulcher saves him time and money in pre-clearing land and has been completely trouble free. After purchasing the mulcher, the only minor machine modification that was required was adding a con-

Bringing their machine to the event to show off the capabilities of the FAE SSH 225 soil stabilizer mounted and PTO driven by a John Deere 8530 are (L-R) Hosea Medina, Alex and Cathy Cornelius and Juan Herrea, Cornelius Farms, Manor, Ga. Turning out to show their support for the event and enjoying a cup of coffee with Giorgio Carera (C) CEO of FAE USA are Alex Musa (L), assistant trade commissioner, and Fabrizio Giustarini, trade commissioner, both of the Italian Trade Commission, Atlanta.

Kevin Knolls, 3K Excavating in Alabama shows the attendees that his Kobelco SK 160LC equipped with an FAE UML 125 forestry mulcher does an incredible job of mulching trees from the top down.

verter valve and his machine and attachment were up and running perfectly.

After the demo it was back to FAE USA Inc. for a barbeque lunch and an opportunity to tour the FAE USA headquarters to see the attachment and parts stocking facility that serves the U.S. market, as well as service offerings. To show its appreciation for those in attendance, FAE USA provided special pricing deals on teeth and attachments.

Several new products were introduced including the PrimeTech PT 400 with 300/S sub soiler and a full line of mini-excavator mulchers. The all-new MTH 225 stabilizer for road construction drew a lot of attention from both dealers and end users. The first unit to hit the states was delivered to FAE USA just two days before the event took place. see FAE page 40

Is the Screening a Perfect Fit for the Application?

In many applications, the screening process is the key ingredient in transforming a waste material product into a highly sought after marketable material. Several styles of portable screening plants are available, including shaker screens, trommel screens, severe shake shaker screens, starscreens and box screens.

“Screening is simply the segregation of material by size,” said Rick Cohen, president of Screen USA Inc. located in Smyrna, Ga. “Although all screening plants are designed for the purpose of segregating material, different screening applications demand different screening technologies.

Shaker Screens “Traditional shaker screens have been around for many years and are commonly used in screening aggregates and topsoil,” said Cohen. “The key to any screening plant is to have a nice consistent feed rate, and the shaker screens are no exception to this rule. Consistent feed rates allow the material to be evenly spread across the shaker screen to achieve the highest efficiency in screening. Many sand and gravel screening customers add spray bars to rinse the gravel during the screening operation. However, it’s important to understand that the addition of spray bars will rinse the rock, but not clean the sand. For optimal results, a fine material washer [sand screw] should be used in conjunction with the portable shaker screen to yield a quality washed sand product.

“To manufacture a sand product to meet a certain specification, many may require the assistance of a classifier, which will segregate different sizes of sand and blend them back together. Before purchasing any equipment, my recommendation is to take a few samples and send them out for a full sieve analysis. The results of the sieve analysis will dictate what additional screening accessories will be needed,” Cohen added.

Shaker screens also are widely used for screening topsoil. In clumpy soils, many manufacturers equip their screening plants with high-speed shredders, which break up the clumps before screening. This shredder is desirable when screening clay-based soils, but is not needed in sandy, loam topsoil, according to Cohen.

Heavy-duty severe shake shaker screens are equipped with a stout feeder, which utilizes a feeder belt with impact beds or a steel apron feeder.

A box screen is a shaker screen mounted on a portable chassis.

Trommel screens normally have a large screening area and incorporate a cleaning brush that assists in the screening of higher moisture material.

Trommel Screens Trommel screens vary greatly from the shaker screens and utilize a spinning drum to screen material.

“Although both trommel screens and shaker screens do an excellent job of processing topsoil, trommel screens have a distinct advantage when screening topsoil contaminated with a great deal of organic debris. Trommel screens normally have a considerably larger screening area and incorporate a cleaning brush that assists in the screening of higher moisture material. Trommel screens are also very popular in screening organ- Shaker screens are widely used for screening topsoil.

ic materials, such as ground wood, mulch and compost. As one might expect, these applications require a fine screen size such as 3/8 inch and this complicates the screening process. The small screen opening equates to needing more screen area for efficient screening,” Cohen said.

Starscreeners In high moisture materials with moisture levels of 35 to 45 percent, Cohen advocated the use of a starscreener.

“Starscreeners have been around for years screening peat and potatoes. At the present time, based on our customers’ demand, a newer version has been designed to screen high moisture organics such as compost. Over the past 20 years, the particle size of compost has changed from 1 inch to the current desired size of approximately 3/8 inch. High moistures and the smaller required sizes created a problem for some of the older models. Newer starscreens were reengineered to incorporate a unique continuous cleaning system, see SCREENING page 40

Fecon Bull Hogs are now available with the new HDT rotor system. The shape of the new tool bodies, stronger tool holder design, and a staggered tool pattern all add to enhanced mulching performance, according to the manufacturer.

In some models a step-tool pattern also is available.

The improved efficiency of the rotor enables more production for the same horsepower while maintaining maximum durability to improve production levels. With all of these new elements combined the Bull Hog HDT offers optimal cutting efficiency, according to the manufacturer.

Fecon’s HDT rotor system also can be equipped with four different tool options including three unique carbide options and a knife tool that allows contractors to quickly configure their mulcher to diverse conditions. Standard dual-carbide tools provide all-around reliability and performance for most contractors. Narrow single carbides deliver a faster cut with carbide durability and coarser finish. The stone tools provide added durability and wear characteristics against rock and abrasion. The knife provides increased production capability for jobs with low risk of rock or highly abrasive conditions.

Starscreeners are often used in high moisture materials.

Waterproof boots and an occasional break under the big tent were a must as the demo was marred by periodic torrential downpours. However, the weather never dampened the spirits of the attendees.

which has definitely changed the way the industry views starscreeners,” Cohen said.

Cohen does not recommend starscreeners for material that is contaminated with twine, banding wire or any other string like material.

Box Screens One of the more simplistic screening products is the box screen, which is simply a shaker screen mounted on a portable chassis.

Instead of having a feeder, a loader or excavator must “bucket sprinkle” material onto to shaker screen. The screened material Operating a Deutz-Fahr Agrotron 265 tractor with a STCH 225 rock crusher, is FAE either falls through the screen onto the USA’s Dave Holze.

“These machines are excellent for coarser sizing, but are rated as fair to poor on precision screening. Since the loader or excavator bucket is being used as the feeder, it is difficult to provide a consistent feed. As a result, the machine is either overfed or is processing nothing at all. Over the past 10 years, many box screens have been introduced into the screening market. Most are extremely light duty, are marketed based on selling price, and work well for light duty screening work.

However, for heavier applications, these light duty screening products will not hold up,” Cohen said.

In these cases he recommended choosing a heavy-duty box screen. For still other applications, the industry has developed an Operating a PrimeTech PT400, Duane McGann, Forestry Solutions, Toccoa, Ga., gave alternative called heavy-duty severe shake the crowd a show as he used the machine’s considerable power to take down and shaker screens. mulch some large timber.

Severe Shake Shaker Screens As the name implies, heavy-duty severe shake shaker screens are used in heavy-duty applications such as construction and demolition. Instead of just having a shaker screen, the machines are equipped with a stout feeder, which utilizes a feeder belt with impact beds or a steel apron feeder. This allows the material to be fed at a consistent feed rate to achieve the highest level of production possible. Slabs of concrete, asphalt, quarry stone, etc. can be fed into these robust screening plants and they will typically screen into three fractions.

Many of these machines are track mounted allowing for complete mobility.

“Severe shake shaker screens are extremely efficient for log yard clean-up, screening root material and other tough applications. Many customers who own crushers purchase these screening plants as they can either screen crushed material into three sizes or use the same machine to scalp off the heavier materials to minimize unnecessary crushing,” Cohen said.

“In the most simplistic terms, once the specific screening technology is determined, we must look at the size of the loader bucket to select the proper sized screening plant to suit the customer’s product need,” added Cohen.

Screen USA Inc. specializes in manufacturing small to medium sized screening plants at its Smyrna, Ga, factory.

ing from outside Germany. The fair registered new all-time highs for the overall number of exhibitors, international participation and space booked.

From China, India and Turkey, in particular, exhibitor numbers were up strongly on the previous event.

“Bauma is the Mecca for construction equipment. Though the volcano shaded Europe it is fascinating to see so many visitors from all over the world here,” said Cuneyt Divris, president of the Imder, Construction Equipment Distributors & Manufacturers Association of Turkey.

Nevertheless, the general economic situation ahead of Bauma and the unexpected ban on air travel at the start of the fair did impact the final figures for visitor numbers: More than 415,000 visitors from more than 200 countries attended Bauma 2010. In comparison to Bauma 2007, this was 17 percent fewer (65 percent of the visitors came from Germany, 35 percent traveled from countries outside Germany.)

“Despite the many emergency measures implemented by Messe München, in cooperation with its employees in Munich and the international sales and association partners, in the second half of the running time — which sees more visitors — not all of the expected visitors from Asia, India and America were able to get to Bauma in Munich,” said Klaus Dittrich, chairman & CEO of Messe München GmbH. “However, because of the turnaround which Bauma 2010 has ushered in for the sector worldwide, we are looking forward optimistically to the already fully booked Bauma China 2010 in Shanghai. Interest in the new event bC India 2011 in Mumbai, too, has led to a considerable expansion in the space originally earmarked for the event. For many of the key players who were represented at the leading world fair Bauma, these events will offer international platforms in the two growth markets of China and India, and thus appeal also to the trade visitors who this time were not able to come to Munich,” Bauma showcased a wealth of innovations. “Never before have there been so many innovations on display in terms of sustainability and environmental and human protection. Despite the economic crisis and the ash cloud, Bauma remains the uncontested Number One,” said Reinhold Festge, managing partner, Haver & Boecker, Germany.

Some of the events in the Bauma Forum, which particularly in the first two days of Bauma 2010 had included

many specials about the partner country of India, had to be cancelled or restaffed. Forty-four lectures and events were able to take place as scheduled from the third day onwards. The country specials in the Bauma Forum were

Thompson Tractor Company’s Steve Parish Retires Thompson Tractor Company Inc. recently held a reception at the Bay Point Marriott, Panama City, Fla., in recognition of the retirement of Steve Parish and his 56 years of dedicated service to Caterpillar products.

In his speech applauding Parish’s contributions to the company, Thompson’s Mike Thompson pointed out that back in 1953 when Parish started working for Caterpillar, a Ford car sold for $1,537, gas was 22 cents a gallon, postage stamps were three cents, Chevrolet rolled out the first Corvette, the state of New York adopted the first traffic lights with three colors, and the unemployment rate was just 2.9 percent.

Thompson went on to say “Let me tell you what else happened in 1953, Steve Parish went into the Caterpillar business and that is why we’re here today to honor him.

Steve has sold well over 1,000 Caterpillar machines in his career and worked from daylight to dark to make it happen. Along the way, he made his customers his friends always putting their needs first. Steve will be no stranger, but will be missed by all of us on a day-to-day basis. He is the Thompson Tractor Company salesman of the century and I thank him for all he has done.”

In turn, during his speech Parish simply stated “It’s been an honor to represent Caterpillar and Thompson Tractor Company. I appreciate being a member of the team and all the support I’ve received. I appreciate the support of my family throughout my career and all of my customer friends that turned out tonight. Ya’ll are like family, and I will miss you.”

Special Recognition At the conclusion of the speeches, Thompson presented Parish with a unique statue called the Bronco Buster, which is an exact replica of a statue designed and carved for Teddy Roosevelt by Frederick Remington.

The statue represents Parish’s passion for horses. Parish calls himself a “Sunday cowboy” and has owned and ridden horses his entire life. With his retirement, he looks forward to spending more time with his horses

He spent his entire career selling his retirement, since Parish sold excavators Caterpillar tractors and heavy equipment and wheel loaders to Mr. Sikes’ son as well from 1966 to 2010, first with Burford as excavators, loaders and dozers to his Toothaker, then with Thompson Tractor grandson. Parish was only the second after the company took over Burford in Caterpillar salesman in this territory.

number is more than 300. It was mostly the excavators and smaller tractors that were Parish’s big sellers in Florida, and he counted highway contractors, governmental agencies, mining outfits and the forestry industry as his primary customers. Parish would always be on the go and said, “If there’s not something happening in one area then there’s something happening in another.”

Selling in a region where construction work continues year-round certainly helped keep Parish busy and with the continued growth and expansion of Thompson Tractor over the years, sales representatives have had more options when trying to close a deal. As customers have grown used to having more to choose from, technology has played a larger role, and Parish is glad that Thompson Tractor has kept up and has always remained a leader in the business.

“People want more product support nowadays”, he said. “They want things fixed yesterday. Shoot, they don’t want them to break down at all. Thompson’s been very aggressive in using modern technology to deliver these services.”

Fond Memories When asked what has been the best part of his job, Parish didn’t hesitate to say,“My customers.” In today’s often frenetic-paced, high-pressure world, Cat sales may be a bit more complicated than they used to be, but in the person of Steve Parish, there’s a reminder of a time when a good firm handshake was all it took to seal the deal between customer and salesman.

“My customers are my friends” Parish reflected.“I spent more time with them than I did with anybody but my family.” Parish had mentioned several years ago “If I retired, I reckon I’d lose contact with my friends.”

We certainly hope that is not the case and everyone in the industry wishes him nothing but the best for his retirement.

Crews Play ‘Beat the Clock’ With Restrictions, Weather NASHVILLE from page 28

encountered in a cut, crews have to encapsulate the area because, if disturbed and exposed to water, it produces acid.

“We load it in dump trucks and haul it to a designated area,” Stewart elaborated.

“There, in a method similar to that used at a landfill, it is placed under five feet of limestone to neutralize the acids, a geo membrane, two feet of pea gravel, two feet of clay and another geo membrane. It’s then sealed with clay. Water shouldn’t penetrate it.”

So far, Stewart estimated they’ve moved about 100,000 cu. yds. (76,455 cu m) of the shale.

“We’ve encapsulated more than we thought we would, based on the surveys and test-drills performed by the geotechnical people.”

Watching the Clock Additional amounts of Chattanooga shale to be moved add to the already hectic schedule. Crews are working six days a week — seven days a week on grading. Stewart explained, “It was wet last year, so they’re trying to catch up.”

The ability to catch up is hampered by environmental restrictions and grading limitations, which dictate that only a certain amount of the area can be disturbed at a time.

“We got a consent order from court,” he continued, “that allows only 25 acres of disturbed area at a time over the length of the project.”

To increase that amount, crews can stabilize it and they are allowed to go above that amount if there are multiple sections under construction.

But even with those allowances, there’s a grading plan to follow, which designates certain areas where they can work at any given time, and seasonal limitations that prohibit grading from December to March because the ground is too wet and frozen.

“They relaxed the restriction on [sections] one and two,” Garrett interjected, noting that crews were permitted to work in December last year and that this year they worked in March in five areas.

Because this is new road construction, for the most part, crews are not working near traffic. Road closures, detours and lane shifting are not a factor affecting the schedule.

However, as Stewart pointed out, there are a lot of side streets that interface with the route and he mentioned traffic detours on Section 4. Nevertheless, they cause minimal impact to the schedule.

Another, more common, time constraint is weather. Garrett noted that 2009 was a wet year.

“It’s been difficult to catch up. We hope for a normal — or dry — year so we can

move more dirt and get back on track.”

They’re “gearing up on sections one and two,” Stewart said, with about 180 to 185 employees and 112 pieces of equipment currently on site. At peak last summer, there were 278 employees and 212 pieces of equipment on site. Some of the equipment used includes cranes for bridge work, Bobcats for moving sod, dump trucks, Gradalls and 30 individual haulers to move dirt.

“We’re cutting and hauling it to other areas onsite.”

It’s a stressful situation, Garrett said.

“A lot of eyes are watching us: residents, government offices, the media…”

There are weekly progress meetings and many inspections scheduled at various intervals to evaluate progress and performance.

Stewart pointed out that all the contractors who bid on the project were aware of the restrictions and the pressures involved.

Garrett said everyone on the project is working as a team and that they “take a lot of pride in proving we can build this under the restraints.”

It’s been a learning experience in many ways. The SR 840 project has been the driving force behind monumental changes in the way TDOT handles large construction projects across the state.

“A big issue when the new administration took over in 2002 was to make TDOT more user-friendly,” Garrett said. “They wanted to get the public more involved.”

First with the citizen resource teams during the planning stages and now with the onsite SR 840 Community Outreach Center and Project Office open to the public, TDOT is embracing the administration’s mission.

“We hope these measures are changing how people view TDOT,” Garrett said, adding that she has noticed marked improvement. TDOT Commissioner Gerald Nicely echoed her sentiments when he said, “We are pleased to be moving forward with the final section of State Route 840, a project which vividly demonstrates the improvements TDOT has made in the way the department does business.”

As they battle the clock, the weather and the Chattanooga shale, everyone on the project looks forward to the day they can look back at this ground-breaking project and proudly claim responsibility for its success.

They’re also looking forward to cashing in on those bonus checks. If things continue as they’re going now, it’s just a matter of time.

“Work is going real well,” Stewart summed up.

DONATION - HELP Support IAAP’s Political Activities – The IAAP Political Action Committee (PAC)was created in order to provide financial support for our allies in the Illinois General Assembly. Whether from Chicago or Downstate Illinois, Democrat or Republican, these legislators all have one thing in common – they support bills that help the Illinois aggregates industry and oppose bills that hurt our interests. As the cost of political campaigns continues to rise, we want to ensure that legislators who support this industry can compete and continue to do good work. For that reason, supporting the IAAP PAC is critically important to the future of our industry, your company, and your Association’s political activities. Please consider sending a donation, payable to the IAAP, to: John Henriksen, Secretary/Treasurer, IAAP PAC, 1115 S. 2nd Street, Springfield, Illinois 62704.
