A short section of highway near Chattanooga, Tenn., has been due for a makeover for some time. This part of U.S. Highway 27 was originally constructed in the 1950s, the decade when work began on our current interstate highway system. As in many
other regions of the country, traffic volumes and speeds have increased exponentially since then. Acceptable road conditions and highway and vehicle technology also have vastly improved over the years. The section of U.S. 27 currently under construction goes from the P.R. Olgiati Bridge over the Tennessee River to SR 8/U.S. 127 see HIGHWAY page 50
A $54 million park project in Pensacola, Fla., which includes a waterfront minor league baseball stadium, is now complete, although official ribbon-cutting ceremonies will have to wait. A partial opening for Community Maritime Park took place in April, but a freak storm rained out the highly anticipated dedication scheduled for mid-June. Community Maritime Park is a 5,000seat facility that’s home to the Cincinnati Redsaffiliated Blue Wahoos and can be converted into a soccer or football field or concert venue with space for additional visitors. see PENSACOLA page 34

Construction Hits Two-and-a-Half Year Peak in May

Construction spending in May reached the highest level since December 2009 as widespread gains in private nonresidential construction, single-family and multifamily homebuilding more than offset a continuing downturn in public construction, according to an analysis of new federal data released July 2 by the Associated General Contractors of
America. Association officials said they expect the disparity between private and public construction is likely to persist, although enactment of a federal highway and transit bill will cushion the decline in public spending. “It is encouraging to see such a broad-based pickup in private construction,” said Ken Simonson, the association’s chief economist.
Simonson noted that private nonresidential spending climbed for the third month in a row and was 19 percent higher than in May 2011. Residential construction surged 3 percent for the month and 8 percent year-over-year, with new multifamily construction leaping 6 percent and 50 percent, respectively, and singlesee REPORT page 54

Stricter EPA Soot Standards Could Put Transportation Projects in Jeopardy Stricter standards for particulate matter (PM) or soot proposed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) could endanger transportation improvements by placing federal highway funds in jeopardy, the American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) told members of Congress. Testifying before the House Subcommittee on Energy and Power, Marc Herbst, executive director of the Long Island Contractorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Association (LICA) and chairman of ARTBAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Council of State Executives, explained that EPAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposed new standards come at a time when counties are still struggling to comply with existing regulations. The proposed regulation â&#x20AC;&#x153;creates a counterproductive cycle where new standards delay needed improvements to the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s highway and
bridge network, which has already reached â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;critical massâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in terms of being able to serve the needs of our citizens and economy,â&#x20AC;? Herbst explained. He went on to describe the impact of EPAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposal noting, â&#x20AC;&#x153;States and counties need predictability and time to develop transportation plans which achieve PM reduction and create jobs. Adding a new layer of requirements on top of existing standards that have not been fully implemented only complicates these ongoing efforts. Specifically, existing projects deemed to be in compliance with the Clean Air Act when first undertaken could be thrown out of compliance if new standards are approved, exposing project owners to costly, time-consuming litigation.â&#x20AC;? Herbst also explained how EPAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actions are counterproductive to current efforts to reauthorize the federal
surface transportation program, saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is ironic that members of both chambers and parties have made streamlining the environmental review and approval process for transportation projects a priority of the transportation bill, yet few talk about how EPAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s PM proposal will severely disrupt the very process they are trying to make more effective.â&#x20AC;? The testimony builds on many yearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; worth of regulatory comments, legislative efforts and litigation by ARTBA on the subject of EPA Clean Air Act standards. ARTBA will continue to work towards a regulatory system that allows the nation to make progress towards cleaner air without sacrificing the ability to pursue desperately needed transportation improvements vital to our economy, public health and safety.

Sandvik Hammers Play Key Role in Intermodal Project Located on the property of the Charlotte Douglas International Airport lies a granite formation that is squarely in the path of development for the new Norfolk Southern Intermodal Site. Under the sweltering summer sun, Plateau Excavation of Austell, Ga., is constructing the $92 million Intermodal project, with the assistance of three Sandvik DX800 top-hammer hydraulic drills that, day after day, no matter what the conditions are, continue to bore away at the task at hand. The intermodal project encompasses nearly 200 acres (80.9 ha) in total. The granite rock formation lies only within a few hundred feet of a very active runway. The 200 acres officially will be turned into an “intermodal yard,” which means that cargo carried there on Norfolk Southern railroad cars will be off-loaded for further transport on tractor-trailers and vice-versa. An estimated 200,000 cargo containers will be transferred in the yard each year. By 2013, the intermodal project will replace a smaller operation in Charlotte. Excavating the Rock Plateau Excavation has grown over the past three decades into a premier site infrastructure contractor. Plateau’s area of work covers the entire southeastern region. The Intermodal rail yards in Charlotte are among numerous site preparation projects the company has successfully completed since 1983. On this particular project, which broke ground in early May 2012, Plateau is the subcontractor for the Illinois-based construction and management firm Milord Company. Plateau Excavation has upwards of 50 pieces of heavy equipment working on the site including the three vital Sandvik DX800 hydraulic drills boring into the granite shelf. The drills are owned and operated by a Plateau Excavation subcontractor LK Gregory Construction Inc., which is headquartered in Crossville, Tenn. The Ranger 800 is a 2007 model and the two other DX800s are 2012 Sandviks supplied and serviced by the Buford, Ga., dealership of Charlotte-based ASC Construction Equipment USA Inc. Sandvik is a new product line for ASC, which is primarily a Volvo dealership. Until January 2012, Sandvik Construction distributed its machines directly in the region. ASC took it on that month and when LK Gregory subsequently expressed interest in procuring two more DX800 Series machines, ASC’s Buford, Ga., dealership became “aggressive” in seizing the opportunity to move the 16-ton tracked machines to help Plateau Excavation with its project in Charlotte. ASC’s Charlotte dealership is within 15 mi. of the project, which makes service and parts supply readily available. ASC is the largest Volvo equipment dealer in the world, serv-
market conditions still constricting, Plateau Excavation has taken this opportunity to again discover alternative methods of saving time and capital by crushing the blast rock into usable material on site. Moving in a portable crushing operation, Plateau Excavation will be able to reduce the size of the rock into everything from rip-rap, 34’s, 57’s, and aggregate base suitable for use on road beds and building pads. Once the granite is drilled and blasted, Plateau uses a fleet of excavators to tear through the rock, progressing it along the fleet of articulated and off-road trucks to get the shattered rock to the crushing operation situated less than 1,000 ft. (304.8 m) away to expedite production.
Under the sweltering summer sun, Plateau Excavation of Austell, Ga., is constructing the $92 million Intermodal project, with the assistance of three Sandvik DX800 tophammer hydraulic drills that, day after day, no matter what the conditions are, continue to bore away at the task at hand.
ing the southeast construction market from 13 locations. “Although Sandvik was fairly new for us [ASC], we knew there was an excellent opportunity for us with Plateau Excavation,” said Jack Evans, ASC’s general manager of the Buford location. “So we ramped up with the Sandvik line pretty quickly and worked very closely with Sandvik personnel to provide the necessary service and support on site for Plateau Excavation and LK Gregory in its drilling and blasting efforts.” Evans said the initial experience was sort of overwhelming, equating it with “drinking out of a fire hose.” But ASC recognized the urgency of the matter, realizing that one of Plateau’s first concentrated efforts solely depended on the excavation of the rock. This effort began with the Sandvik DX800s and carried onto a vast array of machinery that Plateau Excavation has at its disposal. With
Why Sandvik Plateau Excavation’s owner and CEO Greg Rogers looked to recommendations of LK Gregory’s Vice President Danny Camp to satisfy his company’s stringent production standards. Rogers’ first priority is to maintain schedules set forth by Milord and Norfolk Southern. Camp had previously used (and respected) Tamrock Ranger drills, which represented an earlier generation of today’s Sandvik DX Series drills. Sandvik took over Tamrock, a Finnish company, in the late 1990s. “They [DX Series drills] just seem to outperform the other makes in a construction environment,” he said. Camp’s crew is well experienced with drills — the three operators performing the drilling on the Plateau project have more than 32 years combined
experience operating surface drill rigs in a construction drilling environment. The DX800 is a crawler-based surface drilling rig that is notably proficient in several critical areas. It pivots 180 degrees on a turntable, which allows the operator to drill more production holes while spending less time having to turn around. By the end of a workday, more time spent drilling and less time spent maneuvering translates into greater productivity. But with a project of this size, productivity only comes second to safety. The site development at hand is somewhat of a typical construction work environment for the DX800s. Much of the surface is constituted of a mix of rutted rock beds and rubble left from previous site work, a fairly treacherous work platform. Nevertheless, the DX800s are moving across it nimbly and drilling more holes at each station due to its turntable design, according to Camp. In addition, the DX800 is able to drill into rock vertically, horizontally, or at just about any angle in between. With the boom of its high-rotation torque drill mounted on the turntable, the machine’s operator has unusual placement control of the business end of the drill, using his joysticks to swivel, tilt and maneuver the drill into place, regardless of how fractured or imposing a drilling surface might be. According to Camp, the most conspicuous advantage the Sandvik drill has is its stability, which is an overriding concern for a piece of equipment that mostly works on hard, irregular surfaces near steep drop-offs. The Sandvik cab’s engineered and certified roll-over and falling object protection is not an inconsequential feature. “The work can be precarious,” Camp acknowledged. “And that is one of the reasons we chose the DX800. It’s widely regarded as a stable machine. You can put it just about anywhere and it will generate production.” The machine’s ability to remain stable while it drills is partly the result of its cantilevered design. The DX800’s Caterpillar C7 Tier IV engine, along with a gearbox that regulates hydraulic and air compression tasks, is mounted at the rear of the machine’s superstructure. The weight of the power pack thus offsets the boom and drill at the other end. Because it is all mounted on the turntable, the stability is not compromised when the boom is moved from hole to hole. The 2012 models also are the first to be equipped with a Tier IV Re-Gen system, which equates to less emissions and less of an environmental impact. On the Plateau Excavation project, the trio of DX800 rigs is averaging 700 to 900 borehole ft. a day. The routine is to have the drills bore for one or two days with the grades of the project spanning from 1 to 2-ft. (.3 to .6 see SANDVIK page 24

U.S. Rep. Paul Broun Visits BASIC Equipment in Eatonton U.S. Representative Paul Broun (GA) toured the 13,000 sq.-ft. facility at BASIC Equipment in Eatonton, Ga., June 14. During his visit, Rep. Broun had the opportunity to learn about the company’s successes as well as some of its challenges. “BASIC Equipment is a fine example of what can happen when
a business combines hard work with ingenuity,” said Broun. “I was pleased to tour the facility, meet with the management and some of the staff, and hear what’s working for their business and what I can do to help.” BASIC Equipment President Shannon Chastain told Broun that he started the business as a young man and worked diligently over the years to expand the facility, inventory and workforce. He also explained that recent sales have suffered due to the current economic climate. “We have had to make many changes to try to survive including cutting employees, cutting inventory, cutting back on marketing, and we have had to spend a lot of our time focusing on other sources of income including buying and selling used and refurbished Shannon Chastain (L), owner, equipment,” said Chastain. In addition, he explained BASIC Equipment/Shannon Chastain Enterprises Inc., Eatonton, Ga.; and that the company’s attempts to gain government contracts Rep. Paul Broun.

have been unsuccessful, although the “equipment would be a perfect fit for many government applications … because of our simple, reliable designs along with our very competitive pricing.” Broun has heard similar chal-
lenges from job creators throughout Georgia’s 10th Congressional District. In response, he authored the JOBS Act, H.R. 660, to provide long-term tax and regulatory relief for American small business. “We desperately need pro-busi-
ness, pro-growth legislation such as my JOBS Act to jumpstart the private sector and get us out of this recession,” said Broun. “My bill is based on immediate tax cuts that will enable small business to grow and create jobs.”
After 38-Year Industry Career, Dale Lefler Retires After a 38-year career selling forestry equipment in Piedmont, N.C., the last eight of which were spent selling Caterpillar products for Pioneer Machinery and Carolina Tractor, Dale Lefler has retired. On June 22, approximately 45 of Dale’s co-workers, customers and family members celebrated a long and successful career. The retirement dinner was held at the Troy Senior Center about a mile from
where Carolina CAT’s new Troy Pioneer store will soon be opening. Troy was the chosen location not only because it is central to Lefler’s customers, but also because it is a location that Lefler has long wanted Carolina Tractor to have a presence. Many of the customers in attendance at the party had traded with Lefler in the 1970s when he was just beginning his career and others said they had a father who had done business with Lefler.

Lefler’s accomplishments were great as he was Carolina Tractor’s top forestry salesman on an annual basis and often contributed more than half of that segment’s revenues. He was well respected by both his customers and his peers. Seeing Carolina Tractor succeed in the forestry business was very important to Lefler and that was demonstrated when he postponed his retirement in December 2011 so he could help the company with the transition to a new salesman, Chris Williams. “As forestry sales manager, I can say that Dale worked as hard in his final week with Carolina Tractor as he did in his first week,” stated Woody Jones. “As a result of his diligence, Dale delivered 3 new machines totaling more than $600,000 in June. What a grand way to go out. Dale will be missed by his customers and his fellow employees, but we all wish him the best as he embarks on a new chapter in his life. And we will always have a rocking chair waiting for Dale in Troy when he wants to visit.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Forestry Manager Woody Jones referred to the rocking chair for Lefler during his listing of Lefler’s career accomplishments at the retirement party.

Experience Drives McClung-Logan Crane & Equipment Although officially opening October 2011, McClung-Logan Crane & Equipment is no stranger to the equipment sales and rental business. With decades of experience in the field, McClung-Logan’s employees are industry veterans committed to serving their clients in North Carolina and beyond. “We are old school and believe the way to do business is by providing expertise on how the equipment is used in the customer’s business. We also strongly believe product support is the key to building long-term customer relations,” explained Ben Cockerham, general manager of the Charlotte-based company. “Because of our diverse lines and experience, we can provide the solutions to problems outside the norm of most equipment distributors. We feel this sets us apart.

duties while pursuing excellence. Our customers deserve nothing less.” The parts department also looks for the best ways to be part of the team. Parts Manager Thomas handles parts calls, inventory control, vendor invoices, purchasing and negotiation for services. He believes there is no substitute for experience. “I think it is more important than ever,” he said. “I have thorough knowledge about many products that I’ve been exposed to over the years. You need somebody with experience who can tell you that if you replace a widget, you also need some gaskets and seals. We work as a team. If a customer needs parts, service or sales, we keep each other informed. Our common goal is to grow the business.” Jeff Baumgardner, territory manager of the western portion of the Carolinas, has 35 years’ experience in the construction equipment industry. “I find customers still appreciate the value experience can offer,” he said. “Ben Cockerham hand-picked our team for this very purpose. Our team has synergy and works extremely well together with experience spanning the landscape of the construction industry from cranes to earthmoving equipment. We have over 175 years combined experience. Even though our company is new, we have a cache of knowledge in our industry. Operating as a small
company gives our customers the personal attention they deserve, while retaining the attributes of a much larger company with access to the resources of inventory, fleet packages, and financing options. Our business model is based on the old value system that you must take care of the customer first. Being the biggest isn’t as important as continually striving to be the best.” Vic Gilbert, who also works in sales as a territory manager for the company, pointed out, “as a new McClungLogan company in the Carolinas, it is very important for us to work as a team to assure our customers that we will provide them with quality equipment, parts and service. We need to quickly and thoroughly respond to customer needs to maintain a confident and lasting working relationship.” Senior service technician, Paul Stitt added, “you can have the best equipment and prices available and make sales; however, it is the service you provide that will keep your customer returning. My duties have varied as we work to grow a new business here in the Carolinas. I’ve been in the heavy equipment industry for 13 years; first as a crane operator then in the mechanical field, and I really enjoy working on heavy equipment and cranes. There are four generations of crane mechanics/operators in my family, so I have always been around them.
“If you like what you do, you will perform better than if you are just doing it because you have to,” he added. “I am hoping McClung-Logan will continue to grow and be the company I can finish my career with.” Shawn Brooks, the newest technician with the company, has 16 years mechanical experience with heavy equipment. “I have experience working on all types of equipment including backhoes, loaders, excavators, scrap yard equipment, compressors, shears, hammers and cranes,” he said. “Even though I’ve only been with this company a short time, I enjoy the people I work with and the work I do. I am looking forward to growing with this company and see good potential here. I love the fact this company has great family values and provides a clean, safe environment which says a lot in today’s workplace.” Concluded Cockerham, “We are blessed to have excellent people who care about doing things the right way, and we will utilize their experience to train new staff. Our growth plan is simple — grow as we find the right people and the right customers. Good people are the life blood and the heart of all successful businesses.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG

As State, Cities Debt Rise, More Mega Subway Project Projects Turning to Private Investors Unearths Ancient By Jason Keyser ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO (AP) For cities and states buried under mountains of debt, it has become a tantalizing proposition: invite private financial institutions to put up the money to fix aging schools, dilapidated rail lines and beat-up roads. Offer investors steady returns on the projects. And give the public the modern services its governments can no longer afford. Across the country, innovative deals are now being discussed that would put essential pieces of public infrastructure in the hands of global investment firms, the latest effort to cope with a lingering fiscal crisis that has left some communities unable to pay for their needs. Chicago, with a budget deficit of more than $600 million, is planning a private fund that would make 100 public buildings energy efficient, then move on other projects. In other parts of the country, major road construction has been funded using the model. “We absolutely have to look at other ways” to pay for infrastructure, said Shirley Ybarra, a former Virginia transportation secretary who wrote model legislation used in 32 states for public-private transportation partnerships. “There’s only so much bonding you can do ... Roads have to compete with higher education, school bonds, water and all the rest of that stuff.” But as more cities consider packaging needs as prime business opportunities, questions are growing about how well the profit motive fits with the ideal of serving communities. Some officials worry about yielding control to private interests that can raise fees and decide which neighborhoods to serve based on profitability. “They’re looking for a revenue stream for their shareholders, not for the taxpayers,” complained Chicago City Council member Scott Waguespack, who criticized the city’s proposal. As financial pressures increase, cities with worn out infrastructure are weighing the possible trade-offs. Hard hit by the recession, more cities are stuck with credit ratings just a few notches above junk status, making it harder to raise money through bonds. Much of the highway system around cities dates back to the post-World War II building boom and thousands of schools are more than 50 years old. Local sales taxes and other revenues are sometimes too volatile to depend on for major local expenses. Although states have used private partnerships for toll roads in the past, ambitious plans are now emerging for everything from rebuilding dozens of schools in Yonkers, N.Y., to constructing a courthouse in Long Beach, Calif. Other metropolitan areas will be looking at transit and other projects, said David Pope, vice chair of the transportation committee for the U.S. Conference of Mayors. Mayor Rahm Emanuel said the Chicago Infrastructure Trust will be a “breakout strategy” around the political gridlock that holds up the city’s federal and state funding. “I cannot tie the city’s economic vitality, its future, its viability to that dysfunction,” Emanuel told hundreds of business and local government leaders at a meeting in June.
The trust is backed by J.P. Morgan Asset Management’s Infrastructure Investments Group, Citibank, Citi Infrastructure Investors, Macquarie Infrastructure and Real Assets, and the Union Labor Life Insurance Co. The five financial powers would put up $1.7 billion for projects approved by a board chosen by the mayor. The $225 million energy retrofit would be repaid with an estimated $20 million a year savings in heating bills. But some community groups wonder if the private projects could be funded more economically, and whether they can skip over poorer neighborhoods where firms may see less profit. If something goes wrong, said Amisha Patel, director of Grassroots Collaborative, a community-labor coalition, “There’s nothing we can do about it.” Concern has been inflamed by Emanuel’s reluctance to reveal the other projects the fund would take on after the energy retrofit. But other infrastructure goals include upgrading an overburdened transit system and speeding up broadband service. The City Council has approved formation of the trust, but Emanuel’s appointees to the board are awaiting approval by the council. Other public-private projects have triggered controversies about private control. In one of the largest deals, Indiana got $3.8 billion from an investment group in 2006 to lease the Indiana Toll Road for 75 years. The private firms improved the roadway but also doubled fares for some users, bringing criticism from some legislators who couldn’t do anything about it. A project for a 10-mi. (16 km) express toll road in the San Diego area in 2007 failed after it did not produce the rates of return the private developer expected. “I still think there is room for public-private partnerships,” said Marney Cox, chief economist of the San Diego Association of Governments, which wound up taking over the road in a buyout. “But you need to be careful when you put them together that you don’t get your assumptions out of whack and require that growth occur at extraordinary levels.” Ybarra said government representatives can try to negotiate limits on toll and fee increases. But the private investors have considerable leverage. “Governments need this more than institutional investors need this, but I think there’s a benefit to both,” said Mark Huamani, an investment analyst at J.P. Morgan. In Yonkers, a New York suburb with a mix of affluent and poor neighborhoods, officials are looking for $1.7 billion in private investment money to fix dozens of antiquated schools, including the 88-year-old Gorton High School, and say the benefits of private funding outweigh possible problems. Investors’ returns would be paid with future tax revenue. “We couldn’t repair the buildings faster than they were deteriorating,” said Joe Bracchitta, chief administrative officer for the school district. “We think that this is a way that urban school districts that are in a state of disrepair or decay can find another way to repair themselves and build 21st century environments for their students.”

THESSALONIKI, Greece (AP) Archaeologists in Greece’s second-largest city have uncovered a 230-ft. (70 m) section of an ancient road built by the Romans that was the city’s main travel artery nearly 2,000 years ago. The marble-paved road was unearthed during excavations for Thessaloniki’s new subway system, which is due to be completed in four years. The road in the northern port city will be raised to be put on permanent display when the metro opens in 2016. The excavation site was shown to the public on June 25, when details of the permanent display project also were announced. Several of the large marble paving stones were etched with children’s board games, while others were marked by horse-drawn cart wheels. Also discovered at the site were remains of tools and lamps, as well as the bases of marble columns. Viki Tzanakouli, an archaeologist working on the project, told The Associated Press the Roman road was about 1,800 years old, while remains of an older road built by the ancient Greeks 500 years earlier were found underneath it. “We have found roads on top of each other, revealing the city’s history over the centuries,” Tzanakouli said. “The ancient road, and side roads perpendicular to it appear to closely follow modern roads in the city today.” About 23 ft. (7 m) below ground in the center of the city, the ancient road follows in roughly the same direction as the city’s modern Egnatia Avenue. The subway works, started in 2006, present a rare opportunity for archaeologists to explore under the densely populated city — but have also caused years of delays for the project. In 2008, workers on the Thessaloniki metro discovered more than 1,000 graves, some filled with treasure. The graves were of different shapes and sizes, and some contained jewelry, coins or other pieces of art. A massive excavation project also took place during the 1990s in the capital, Athens, before the city’s new metro system opened in 2000. Thessaloniki’s new subway is already four years behind schedule, due to the excavation work as well as Greece’s financial crisis. Thirteen stations will operate initially, before a 10-station extension is added later.

Summit Supply Expands With New Warehouse, Products
Plateau Excavation Leads $92M Intermodal Project SANDVIK from page 8
m) in slopes to holes running 50 to 60 ft. (15.2 to 18.3 m) in the centerline of the future rail. When the blast site is ready, LK Gregory works side by side with Plateau Excavation, Milord Company, STV (Representatives for Norfolk Southern) and operations at CDIA to ensure site safety is the top priority. Averaging between 7,500 to 10,000 yds. (6,858 to 9,144 m) of blasted rock per blast continually allows LK Gregory to stay in line with Plateau’s production standards. An estimated 300,000 cu. yds. (229,366 cu m) of rock will be removed before the path of the rail line is cleared. “We have been pleased with the performance and production of the Sandvik rigs on the Norfolk Southern project,” said Plateau’s Greg Rogers. Prevailing Over the Rock Camp called the granite formation being systematically taken apart by Plateau as “some of the hardest rock we’ve worked with.” It is hard, closely compacted granite and nothing short of blasting will dislodge it. Though high-density rock such as granite is hard on a drill unit, it conversely is the best type of rock for blasting, according to Camp. Because of its density, it absorbs more of a blast’s concussion and, thus, the rock is severely impacted by it, fragmenting and displacing a targeted mass, while keeping the seismic vibrations contained in the rock and not transmitted to outlying areas. Blasting a softer rock is more apt to produce more precarious situations and broader seismic activity, said Camp. “You would think it would be the opposite, but it’s better to be drilling in a tightly compacted hard rock. It’s slower, but better,” he said. The DX800s are designed to penetrate any density of rock and in the course of a day, density variations will occur.
“When you are moving across any job, some rock will be a little bit softer in some places than others. You can literally move just feet and the density can change,” said Camp. Density of rock aside, the hydraulic battering action of the drills against the rock always takes a toll on the machines. (Though not necessarily the operators — the air-conditioned and filtered cab on the DX800 are insulated against the screeching and banging going on outside, with the noise level in the cab maintained at a healthy 80 decibels.) Due to the nature of the scope of work, “the machines beat themselves up all day long, and our morning’s maintenance routines on the drills are as vital as anything else that occurs in our day.” While the Sandvik drills are a more specialized piece of equipment than some equipment that ASC supplies contractors, they will never be the high volume staples that Volvo excavators and backhoes are for the company. However, Sandvik drilling equipment also has applications in quarry and mining operations. “We cover all those markets,” said Evans. The DX800s will surely not sit idle in any yard in the near future. Once the Charlotte Norfolk Southern Intermodal Project is complete, Camp said, “Wherever Plateau Excavation goes, we will follow and assist in any way that we can.” Plateau Owner and CEO Greg Rogers said, “We have been pleased by the production of LK Gregory and their Sandvik rigs as well as the response from ASC Construction Equipment USA Inc. At the end of the day, my focus is on our customers, Milord and Norfolk Southern, whom I hope that we exceed their expectations at every opportunity; we look forward to the future with them.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Summit Supply’s new warehouse in New Jersey is 100,000 sq. ft. in size.
Summit Supply LLC, a division of Multi Machine Inc., has expanded with the acquisition of a new 100,000 sq. ft warehouse in New Jersey. “We are now set up and ready to better serve our ever growing customer’s needs,” said Eric Druckenmiller, Summit Supply general manager. “The same great service that our customers have come to know is now even better. Not only has the rubber track warehouse expanded, we have brought on several new product lines, including flat proof skid steer tires, rubber pads for steel tracked machines and undercarriage parts.” Summit Supply LLC is a family owned and operated business that has been growing since it has opened its doors for business in 1981. Its main inventory line is the Summit brand rubber tracks; the company has more than 6,000 rubber tracks in stock every day, according to Druckenmiller. “We carry over 240 track sizes to fit 99 percent of all rubber tracked equipment in the country. Summit tracks are built to exact OEM specs, made with 100 percent virgin rubber compounds — not recycled rubber — and continuous steel cords inside to make our tracks the strongest tracks in the marketplace today.” According to Druckenmiller, Summit’s customers get three to four times the use out of a set of flat proof tires as compared to the air tires. The company stocks two tread
designs: the aggressive tread pattern and the smooth tire for demo work in the 10 by 16.5 in. (25.4 by 42 cm) and 12 by 16.5 in. (30.5 by 42 cm) tire sizes. “Our rubber tires are bonded to the rims so that there is never any rim slippage when the machine is under load. The rims are offset, which allows the customer to make the machine wider for more stability or narrower to fit into smaller confined areas. Our demolition and scrap salvage customers have found the smooth solid tires extremely fitting for their needs as they are always working in harsh environments and around sharp objects,” Druckenmiller said. Summit Supply carries a large inventory of bottom rollers, top rollers, sprockets and front/rear idlers for many of the machines. It also offers rubber pads for full-size excavators to small steel tracked excavators. “We carry from the 300mm to 700mm size pad with bolt-on, clip-on and chain type styles in inventory. Again, large quantities of many sizes are kept in stock. Generally we need to confirm measurements with the customer to ensure perfect fitment to their machine,” Druckenmiller said. All orders received by 3:30 p.m. EST will ship out the same day unless otherwise discussed with the sales department.

Terex Announces HyPower Hybrid System Retrofit Program Terex Utilities now offers customers the option to retrofit their current utility truck fleet with the Terex HyPower hybrid system, a plug-in power take-off (PTO) system that uses stored energy from the system’s rechargeable batteries to power the nonpropulsion functions of most utility vehicles. The system helps customers save fuel and reduce exhaust emissions while allowing operators to function in a relatively quiet work environment, a benefit for noise sensitive job sites. “Retrofitting our HyPower system onto a current utility truck, including aerial devices and digger derricks, can help customers ‘green up’ their fleet at a reduced capital investment versus purchasing a new HyPower unit,” said Nick Cammisa, Terex national accounts manager. “Not only is this a less expensive option, but it’s also a faster way for customers to meet their company’s green initiatives. The HyPower system reduces the engine idle hours on the job site, resulting in fewer oil changes, lower fuel consumption, as well as reducing the amount of times an engine will need to go
into re-gen mode. Most competitive aerial device makes and models qualify for this retrofit option.” The Terex HyPower Hybrid Retrofit Program can be applied to any Terex or competitive manufacturer’s aerial devices five years old or newer and can be completed at any one of its 14 different Terex Equipment Services (TES) locations. For an aerial device to be considered for a HyPower retro-
fit, it needs to pass an initial inspection, which includes an understanding of the truck’s available payload capacity, body configuration and cab-to-axle length to accommodate the battery packs. After the inspection, retrofits can be completed in as little as two weeks. HyPower retrofitted trucks come with the standard one-year warranty from the date of in-service on the system, the same as on new

HyPower equipped units. “Not only is the Terex HyPower Hybrid System simple enough to be retrofitted onto existing utility vehicles,” said Cammisa, “but it is also durable enough to outlive its first vehicle and be used on another.” The Terex HyPower Hybrid System The ARB-approved (#11-643-002) Terex HyPower Hybrid System is designed to reduce the use of fuel for the work done while the vehicle is sitting still. Complying with national and regional air pollution rules and regulations, the Terex HyPower system reduces a whole range of exhaust emissions produced from diesel fuel and eliminates the noise from an idling engine normally used to run the hydraulic system. The HyPower system recharges from the electrical grid using a standard 110V — 15 AMP outlet. Operators appreciate that there is no reduction in the performance of the controls while the trucks are in hybrid mode. For more information, visit www.terexutilities.com.
Mack Expanding Offer to Include Construction Applications Mack Trucks is expanding its natural gaspowered offerings and has taken a key step forward in its hybrid vehicle development process. Mack plans to offer natural gas-powered versions of the Mack Pinnacle and Mack Granite models in 2013. Both models will utilize the Cummins Westport ISX12 G engine. Customer testing is scheduled to begin this year. The addition of the 12-L natural gas-powered models expands Mack’s current natural gas solutions to on-highway and construction applications. Mack already offers natural gas-powered Mack TerraPro low entry and Mack TerraPro Cabover refuse models. Like their Mack TerraPro natural gas counterparts, the Mack natural gas-powered Pinnacle and Granite models will feature maintenance-free aftertreatment and require
only a three-way catalyst to meet EPA 2010 and CARB emissions standards, setting a new benchmark for lower alternative fuel vehicle lifecycle costs and improving customers’ return on investment. Mack’s natural gas-powered trucks are available with compressed (CNG) or liquefied (LNG) fuel systems. “Mack has a long history in alternative driveline technologies and in particular, natural gas,” said Kevin Flaherty, president, Mack Trucks North American sales and marketing. “We’ve offered natural gas since it became clear that it was a viable energy solution in the refuse segment. Now customers within the regional haul, LTL and construction segments will have the benefits of natural gas combined with the power and performance they expect from Mack.”
Mack also is investigating other alternative driveline technologies, including high pressure direct injection, which uses a combination of natural gas and a small amount of diesel in the combustion process, and DME (dimethyl ether), which can be produced from natural gas. In addition, the company continues to move forward on development of dieselelectric hybrid TerraPro models, recently delivering additional low entry test units to the New York City Department of Sanitation for evaluation. “For more than 35 years, we’ve counted on Mack for trucks that can withstand the tremendous rigors of our operations,” said Rocco DiRico, deputy commissioner, department of sanitation, support services, New York City. “We look forward to putting these new vehicles with the latest version of
Mack’s diesel-electric hybrid technology to the test. We fully expect that they’ll deliver on the Mack promise of durability, reliability and superior performance as we continue to deliver on our own promise of a clean city with clean air.” The Mack diesel-electric hybrid technology provides up to a 30 percent fuel economy improvement in stop-and-go applications such as refuse, with a corresponding greenhouse gas emissions benefit. “We listen to what our customers want and develop the technologies best suited for their needs,” Flaherty said. “Mack’s alternative driveline technologies represent an ongoing evolution built upon our proven experience.” For more information, visit www.macktrucks.com.

Crews Transform Vacant Lot Into Pensacola Maritime Park PENSACOLA from page 1
“Site activities began in July 2010,” explained Hoar Construction Contract Manager Mike Horton. “This project was a design-build project, so design efforts began much sooner. The work included initial grading packages, as well as installation of a new steel bulkhead, or seawall, around the perimeter of the site. The biggest challenge was that the initial stadium was designed to host a ‘nonaffiliated’ independent minor league baseball team. As the first steel and precast was being erected, the stadium had to be redesigned to host a AA Southern League team. This required more seating capacity and many other enhanced facilities.” According to Horton, there were three major components of the Community Maritime Park project — the stadium that opened on April 5, 2012, as well as an amphitheater and a green space public park that has been unveiled in stages. Officials are now working to reschedule the dedication event, which was to have included local and state dignitariess, as well as various musical acts. In April 2009, the Pensacola City Council gave final approval for the ballpark, which faces the Pensacola Bay. The 30-acre waterfront parcel where the Community Maritime Park is located sat vacant for years after its disuse by the railroads. “Looking at what’s there now, it’s hard to believe, but this sizeable waterfront parcel, across the street from City Hall became, essentially, an overgrown lot used by transients as a camp,” explained Derek Cosson, public information officer of the city of Pensacola. “The need for this parcel was to reclaim this space for citizens, providing waterfront access and recreational amenities, and to provide an anchor for revitalizing downtown Pensacola and developing/redeveloping our waterfront.” Cosson explained, “The city owns the property and constructed the public amenities such as the stadium, amphitheater, promenade, greenspace, etc., through the Community Maritime Park Associates Inc. The Blue Wahoos AA baseball team leases the stadium, and its owners, Quint and
Rishy Studer, have generously made various improvements, like seating upgrades and installation of an auxiliary scoreboard, that have become public property. The northern end of the park has nine developable parcels that will form the private element of this project. We’re currently fielding interest from a number of different possibilities, and we could see everything from restaurants and shops to residential or hotel uses.” Various projects had been proposed on the site dating back to the city’s purchase of the property in 2000, but the vision for the specific project emerged in late 2004, after Hurricane Ivan. “A number of community leaders — initially retired Admiral Jack Fetterman and Quint Studer — conceived the project as a way to revitalize the city after the hurricane. One challenge was a small but dedicated group of citizens who for various reasons opposed the project and forced a referendum in 2006. Though they lost, they continued to actively criticize the project and attempted but failed to force referendums in 2009 and 2010. Other challenges included financing the park, which took some complex financial transactions involving Build America Bonds, New Market Tax Credits.” There are three levels to the stadium complex. The ground level features locker rooms, along with administrative offices. Behind the wall are restrooms, along with a garage for maintenance vehicles. The main deck also includes restrooms, as well as a merchandise store, a children’s area and space for food service. The top deck houses a private club, while the center area is reserved for journalists. Populous, formerly HOK Sport, served as architect for the stadium. Equipment used on the overall project included trackhoes, backhoes for varying types of excavation, cranes for steel and precast erection, cranes for sheet pile driving and augercast pile installation, lulls for varying types of hoisting, scissor lifts and boom lifts for personnel hoisting for certain tasks. Major concerns for the multi-use facility involved the layout of football and soccer fields within the footprint of the stadium, and pro-

“When visitors first enter the park, they’ll see the stadium and the various green spaces, ponds with fountains, walking paths, paved walkways, a boardwalk around the perimeter, an amphitheater within the park, various sites for future development and some beautiful views. Water surrounds the park on three sides. This is a great addition for Pensacola residents.” Erik Oxford Hoar Construction
viding an easy way to change field configuration to allow football and soccer to be played at the venue. Erik Oxford, Hoar Construction project manager, pointed out, “On time delivery of materials was a chief concern. The structural steel used on this project is very ornate. The trusses had lots of architectural details. “This project is unique. It’s one of the most interesting I’ve been involved with because of the aesthetics. The Hunter Amphitheater is a steel structure with brick veneer and columns. It has a covered stage and back house with dressing rooms, bathrooms, two showers for the entertainers and offices. There’s a beach, palm tree feel to it, with a seating bowl out front. There are no specific seats so
people can spread their blankets and sit wherever they want. “When visitors first enter the park, they’ll see the stadium and the various green spaces, ponds with fountains, walking paths, paved walkways, a boardwalk around the perimeter, an amphitheater within the park, various sites for future development and some beautiful views. Water surrounds the park on three sides, Oxford continued. “This is a great addition for Pensacola residents.” Because of the location on the water, environmental issues needed to be addressed. Oxford explained, “Water runoff in the bay was a tremendous concern, so storm water and pollution control were extremely important. There also was an issue with
having to load the site with dirt and let it settle before work could be done.” Local firms Bullock Tice and Associates and Quina Grundhoefer were selected as architects for the Hunter Amphitheater. Subcontractors involved in the park project included Aber Fence & Supply Co. Inc., Baroco Electric Construction Co., Berkel & Company Contractors Inc., Executive Landscaping Inc., Southern Timber Structures and Wetland Sciences Inc.

The MagGrapple features 360 degree rotation and is designed to accept both high radial and axial loads.
Sennebogen Line Expands With MagGrapples Based on the popularity of the Sennebogen four and five tine grapples, Constantino Lannes, president of Sennebogen LLC has added the Sennebogen MagGrapples to the product line. The combination grapples and magnets have been designed and built to Sennebogen engineering specifications. Due to the number of different product scenarios, Sennebogen is offering 11 models from .75 to 1.5 cu. yds.
(.6 to 1 cu m) and depending upon the application and the range of product being picked up for processing or shipping, the corresponding magnets are available in 30, 36, 40 and 44 in. (76, 91, 101 and 112 cm) diameters. Each unit features 360 degree rotation and is designed to accept both high radial and axial loads, which allows them to withstand the rigors of both pushing and pulling in recycling operations. Spiral steel
hose guards help prevent hose damage and the cylinders are protected with removable guards for ease of service. For ongoing productivity the tines are protected against impacts on the outside of the jaw with a pressure release when the grapple is open. According to John Van Ruitenbeek, vice president sales and marketing at Sennebogen LLC, this product innovation was driven by the marketplace.
“The popularity of our four tine grapples means that the development of the MagGrapple was not far behind.” The Sennebogen unit is ideal for our clients whose machines are responsible for providing 100 percent of the handling of incoming and outgoing ferrous scrap of varying dimensions, as well as cleaning up work areas.” For more information, call 704/347-4910 or visit www.sennebogen-na.com.

Bobcat Plate Compactors Expand M-Series Versatility Two updated plate compactor attachments expand the versatility of Bobcat M-Series compact excavators, making safer and more efficient work of restoring trenches, according to the manufacturer. The new PCF34 and PCF64 flat-top plate compactor attachments offer enhanced compatibility with Bobcat MSeries excavators. Mounting changes to the top of the plate, including the use of a bolt-on breaker cap, provide new trench compaction capabilities to the E80 excavator. The largest excavator offered by Bobcat Company, the E80 features a maximum dig depth of 15 ft. 6 in. (4.7 m) and a maximum reach of 24 ft. 5 in. (7.4 m). Applications for the plate compactor attachment include
compacting trenches, footings and slab areas. Other applications include driving piles when building retaining walls and compacting spoil. The compact design of the plate enables compacting even in hard-to-reach areas like down in trenches and on slopes. Shock mounts distribute vibration evenly while keeping the attachment level, increasing stability and improving compaction efficiency. Mounted at the end of an excavator arm, the plate compactor attachment provides more powerful compaction force than a hand-operated compactor and reduces the need for a worker in the trench. The PCF34’s length is 26 in. (66 cm) from the excavator arm and its plate width is 18.75 in. (47.6 cm). The attachment’s dynamic force is 3,400 lbs. and the

compaction frequency is 2,100 vpm. The PCF34 is compatible with the Bobcat E32, E35, E42, E45, E50 and E55 excavators. The PCF64’s length is 34 in. (86 cm) from the excavator arm and its plate width is 23.5 in. (59 cm). The attachment’s dynamic force is 6,400 lbs. and the compaction frequency is 2,000 vpm. The PCF64 is compatible with the three largest Bobcat excavators including the E55, E60 and E80. With the PCF34 and PCF64, Bobcat excavator operators can compact down in trenches without leaving the cab and reduce the need for a person working in the trench, increasing job site safety and operator comfort.

The JRB PowerLatch features backup mechanical locks on both the front and rear attachment pins that are independent of the machine’s hydraulic locking and operating system.
The JRB PowerLatch multi-pin-grabber coupler by Paladin, designed by Miller UK Limited, employs several advanced safety features, including an automatic blocking system (ABS) that ensures coupler engagement is maintained during hydraulic failure. Designed to work with a wide range of buckets and attachments, the JRB PowerLatch has the most features, reduced offset and is one if the lightest, yet strongest excavator and loader backhoe multi-pin-grabber couplers available today, according to the manufacturer. The JRB PowerLatch features backup mechanical locks on both the front and rear attachment pins that are independent of the machine’s hydraulic locking and operating system. The ABS mechanical backup safety
system automatically locks both pins so coupler engagement is maintained even if hydraulic failure occurs. If the rear bucket pin is not correctly engaged, or missed during the attachment process, the ABS automatically secures the front attachment pin. Attachments can only be removed under operator control when they are in a safe, curled position — preventing accidental release of the attachment. In addition to its advanced safety features, the JRB PowerLatch includes reduced offset that allows for greater breakout force. Ports connecting the hydraulic hoses to the coupler are located on top of the cylinder, making installation much easier. For more information, call 800/456-7100 or visit www.paladinbrands.com.

Wright Brothers Leads $102M U.S. 27 Widening Project HIGHWAY from page 1
(Signal Mountain Boulevard). The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) first began construction on this portion of U.S. 27 in the 1920s and completed it on April 27, 1928. U.S. 27, a north-south highway, begins at Fort Wayne, Ind., and ends in Miami. The Chattanooga segment was first known as the Dixie Highway in the 1910s as a direct route between Michigan and Florida. Ironically, the Dixie Highway, the predecessor to portions of U.S. 27, had its beginnings in Chattanooga. In 1914, Indianapolis businessman Carl Fisher met in Chattanooga with other like-minded businessmen who believed a route to promote development from the midwest to the south was needed. It was constructed and expanded from beginning in 1915 to 1927 when the federal government began to provide increasing funding for highways across the nation. In the Chattanooga area, the route is referred to as Corridor J, a designation of the Appalachian Development Highway System. In Tennessee, U.S. 27 begins at I-24 and regionally goes through Soddy Daisy, Dayton, Rockwood, Harriman, Wartburg and Oneida to the Kentucky border. The large commercial vehicles that now use this corridor need ample and efficient entry to the interstate without endangering drivers of much smaller vehicles. The general area has seen substantial population and business growth, and the existing highway system is not conducive to efficient movement of people and goods. The current roadway and bridges have served their purpose well, but they are reaching the extent of their useful life and improvements are needed. This section of highway will be rebuilt to keep up with the area’s traffic demands. The widening of U.S. 27 to three lanes in each direction begins at Manufacturers Road. The Olgiati Bridge currently crosses over the Tennessee River and goes 1.62 mi. to SR 8, also known as Signal Mountain Boulevard. Additional acceleration and
Since an astounding 73,000 vehicles use this portion of U.S. 27 on average, the more safety procedures and planning involved the better. The project also has a much higher price tag on it, according to TDOT. The reason for this is the large number of retaining walls and bridges necessary to construct this complex project. It is the most expensive TDOT project ever let in the 24-county Region Two area to date. deceleration lanes will be added in some areas, which will improve traffic flow. The alignment for entering and exiting traffic will be improved substantially, resulting in a more efficient and safer roadway for vehicles regularly traveling this route. The completed project also will enhance traffic flow to and from the downtown Chattanooga and Red Bank areas as part of the master plan to reconstruct the U.S. 27 Corridor. The completed roadway will have new high-mast lighting for better visibility through the bu.s.y section, and a new SmartWay ITS System (traffic cameras) will be included to assist with monitoring traffic incidents that may occur. When complete, the entry into downtown Chattanooga will be a much improved section of highway that will benefit all motorists and area residents. The route itself has both a U.S. highway designation, 27 and is also Tennessee State Route 29 as it runs through both the City of Chattanooga and Hamilton County. The job’s contractor, Wright Brothers Construction Company Inc., Charleston, Tenn., won the bid for the contract amount, totaling $102,528,639. At this time the project is slated to be completed by Oct. 31, 2014. Specifics of the project include the building of 30 retaining walls, which will be constructed along this section of U.S. 27. The retaining walls will stabilize the steep slopes constructed in the 1950s and also serve to minimize the need for additional right-of-way acquisition. The roadway bridges over Manufacturers Road, Manning
Street, the Southern Railroad, Dayton Boulevard and Signal Mountain Boulevard will be reconstructed to the most current design standards. The roadway alignment and grade near the Dayton Boulevard interchange will be improved to flatten the horizontal curve and also to remove much of the vertical dip in that section of roadway. The northbound entrance ramp to U.S.-27/SR-29 from Manufacturers Road will close temporarily for several months to totally reconstruct the new interchange, adjacent retaining walls, drainage and the extended acceleration lane. However, the northbound exit ramp from U.S.-27/SR29 at Manufacturers Road will remain open for the duration of the project. The Manning Street ramps will close permanently when the Manning Street Bridge widening begins. The Whitehall Road ramp to Cherokee Boulevard will close permanently when the construction for the realignment of Whitehall Road and the adjacent retaining wall begins. The exit ramp to Dayton Boulevard will close temporarily when the existing bridge over Cherokee Boulevard is reconstructed. The interchange ramp will reopen when the bridge construction is completed. The exit ramp to Signal Mountain Boulevard will be detoured to a temporary exit ramp to allow reconstruction of the ramp bridge over Signal Mountain Boulevard. The ramp will reopen and traffic will be restored to an improved alignment when the bridge is complete.
The Signal Mountain Boulevard entrance ramp to southbound U.S. 27 will see some minor realignment of the existing traffic lanes but will remain open for the duration of the construction. The Dayton Boulevard entrance ramp will remain open, but traffic will be detoured to a temporary ramp during certain phases of construction. The Whitehall slip ramp to southbound U.S. 27 has already been closed and will not reopen. Also, entrance and exit ramps on Manning Street have been closed and will not reopen. The Manufacturers Road ramps will be maintained for the life of construction. As with any construction project details may be modified as the construction progresses. Every effort will be made to maintain traffic flow and avoid ramp closures until it is absolutely necessary, according to TDOT. The department’s goal is to do whatever possible to keep accidents to a minimum. To avoid problems during construction, two lanes will be maintained in each direction during the daylight hours. Lane restrictions, with few exceptions, will occur only at night to minimize inconvenience to the public. As part of the construction, various ramps will be closed, either temporarily or permanently. All ramp access will remain open until construction requires closure. Since an astounding 73,000 vehicles use this portion of U.S. 27 on average, the more safety procedures and planning involved the better. The project also has a much higher price tag on it, according to TDOT. The reason for this is the large number of retaining walls
and bridges necessary to construct this complex project. It is the most expensive TDOT project ever let in the 24-county Region Two area to date. This project is funded with National Highway funds, which are 80 percent federal dollars and 20 percent state dollars. Because of the project’s cost, this project was partially funded for construction in the FY 2010/2011 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) and funding was completed in the FY 2011/2012 STIP. The main contractor on this job has implemented a traffic configuration on U.S. 27 South at the bridge over Signal Mountain. Blvd. and permanent ramp closures on U.S. 27 South at Manning Street and Whitehall Road. Vehicles on U.S. 27 South now merge into one lane on the bridge over Signal Mtn. Blvd., while vehicles entering U.S. 27 South from Signal Mtn. Blvd. are using a dedicated lane to access the corridor. Houser Street has been permanently closed as well. Crews were currently working at night between the hours of 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. installing concrete barrier walls and restriping the pavement as part of their traffic control on the project, as of the end of February 2012. They have also begun work on widening several bridges and building retaining walls along U.S. 27 South. As with all construction projects, all work scheduling is weather permitting. At least one lane in each direction will remain open to traffic at all times. Also at the end of February, Wright Brothers implemented closures at the southbound outside lane of Dayton Boulevard. to add an additional turning lane. The majority of the work will be performed at the intersection of Dayton Boulevard. and Signal Mountain Boulevard. The Tennessee Highway Patrol will assist with traffic control as necessary.

family homebuilding up 2 percent and 15 percent. The construction economist said that four private nonresidential categories each posted 12-month spending increases of more than 25 percent: power and energy construction, 35 percent; hotels, 29 percent; educational and manufacturing, 27 percent apiece. There also were improvements in year-over-year totals for private transportation such as trucking and rail facilities, up 17 percent; health care and commercial (retail, warehouse and farm), 11 percent each; and office construction, 7 percent. In contrast, public construction slumped for the fifth consecutive month, falling 4 percent below the May 2011 level, Simonson noted. He said the largest public category, highway and street construction, slipped 0.5 percent from April but edged up 2 percent year-over-year, while the second-largest segment, educational construction, fell 3 percent and 7 percent, respectively. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Based on the number and variety of projects that have been announced in recent
months, I expect the private nonresidential sector to keep posting hefty gains for the rest of 2012 and beyond,â&#x20AC;? Simonson predicted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Apartment construction seems sure to remain strong as well. Single-family homebuilding is not as solid but has apparently passed its low point. Together, these categories should mean that total construction spending in 2012 will be positive for the year for the first time since 2007 despite ongoing weakness in public construction. Association officials said the enactment of a federal highway and transportation bill that slightly increases spending over the next 27 months will keep public construction from falling further. But they urged Congress to include more funding for essential water and wastewater projects. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Getting a highway and transit bill passed is a great first step,â&#x20AC;? said Stephen E. Sandherr, the associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chief executive officer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Next, Congress should focus on keeping other forms of infrastructure from falling behind while enacting measures to support broader economic growth.â&#x20AC;?

onsite periodically since June 2011. According to Deep South Crane Vice-President Jimmy White, crews first had to set the concrete slabs for the bleacher seating, using a 150-ton (136-t) hydraulic crane. “The seating is mounted onto concrete and with the foundations poured, it made things pretty easy. That part took about three weeks and it went pretty smoothly. “In November, working with Jacksonville-based M. Gay Constructors Inc., Deep South Cranes set the stadium light poles using a 60-ton (54-t) hydraulic crane. By January, Deep South crews had teamed with Rainbow Signs Inc., to put the stadium scoreboard in place, utilizing a 150-ton hydraulic crane. “There are six poles and they are really big and tall,” White explained. “We’re talking approximately 120 feet tall and about 40,000 pounds each. They were actually in two pieces and were trucked in. We unloaded them, the lights were assembled on the tops of the poles and then we came back in and set all of the bottom sections. After the concrete was poured it had to set for a couple of days. We also had to stack the top sections to the base. That requires proper rigging when you’re strapping to pick up the poles. We also had to be concerned with ground conditions. When there’s been grading, etc. you have to make sure you have the right matting for the
crane to sit on. It’s pretty tedious work. It took about a week and a half to complete the pole portion of the project.” White said installing the ballpark’s scoreboard was one of the highlights of the job. “It’s a huge, state-of-the-art steel structure that, unlike a lot of traditional scoreboards, has a giant screen with the ability to show replays, as opposed to just having the names of the home and visiting teams,” said White. “Things went pretty smoothly on our part, but it was very time consuming because it involved a lot of welding. We worked putting pieces together in the air and on the ground. It was like a puzzle, using a set of drawings as our guideline. “The design of the entire park is really impressive,” added White. “This is great for the community and it’s no wonder it’s the talk of the town. It’s first-class, and the fact that it’s positioned to overlook Pensacola Bay makes it something very special for families and everyone else who comes to spend time at the park. I’ve been to other stadiums where the back of it overlooks a building or a patch of woods. This is absolutely the perfect setting.” C & H Baseball of Bradenton, Fla., was responsible for equipment installation at the stadium. “We worked with the architect, owner and our general contractor to engineer and design the backstop netting and cable system, which we’ve done at more than 350 stadiums since 1996. We also provided the wall padding, guard
rail padding, batting tunnel netting, sports turf, Batter’s Eye windscreen, foul ball poles and the installation of those items. Over the course of several months these items were completed. “Our products are the finishing products on a stadium, so the stadium looks like a big concrete gray area. Then we come in and paint the color, and complete the padding and windscreen products. We have to wait until the other
days to lay the turf in the batting tunnel area, while our netting crew took about a week to install the Backstop system and the Batter’s Eye. We also installed the foul ball poles and that took a week or so. All of the products were manufactured offsite and shipped to the site for installation. The offsite production took a couple of months, given our production schedule for 2012. Also, the rain did play a role in installation, and the mud is never

scope of works are complete, which sometimes means we are the last sub into a stadium, and we have the stress of completing the field so that play can occur. However, C & H’s experienced installation crews are always up for the challenge.” Huff said necessary materials for the work included steel, wood, foam, vinyl, aluminum, nylon netting and cable. “We have different crews for different aspects of the work. Our padding crew took about two weeks to install the products. Our sport turf crew took about three
fun for our guys to deal with.” Subcontractor Masonry Arts Inc. of Bessemer, Ala., was onsite for just over one year. “We installed all the masonry components at the Maritime Park and amphitheater including the concrete masonry units, face brick and architectural cast stone,” said Vice-President of Business Operations John Swindal. “The materials utilized were concrete masonry units, face brick and architectural cast stone. This involved approximately 100,000 bricks, 70,000 concrete masonry units and roughly 200 pieces of
architectural cast stone. We used forklifts, large and small, and large Pettibone machines, as well.” Swindal added, “Luckily the weather on the Gulf Coast cooperated for the most part. We faced some challenges working in the area, including summer rains and a little bit of cold weather. The construction team managed to complete the job in an efficient and timely manner despite challenges inherent to working on a tight schedule in an unpredictable climate.” Although future Community Maritime Park developments could include a hotel, conference center, offices, residences, museum, shops, restaurants and private commercial development, for now, the focus is the unveiling of Phase One. “Reaction to the stadium has been overwhelmingly positive,” said Cosson. “The Wahoos have sold out 20 home games this season, and the stadium’s gotten rave reviews from baseball blogs and visitors, with many commenting on the amazing view and the fact that there’s not a bad seat in the house. We have a great slate of entertainment and family events slated for the summer, and we’re working with the acts that were scheduled to perform at the grand opening, including the Charlie Daniels Band.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)
