The unemployment rate for construction workers fell to the lowest July level in five years last month, even though employment has stagnated in the past four months, according to an analysis of new government data by the Associated General Contractors of America. Association officials urged Washington leaders to act on stalled infrastructure funding measures to help jump start construction hiring. “Although the unemployment rate for experienced construction workers came down to 9.1 percent in July, many of those workers have left the industry for other jobs, school or training pro-
grams, or retirement,” said Ken Simonson, the association’s chief economist. “While the industry has added workers in the past year, employment growth has been negligible recently.” The unemployment rate for workers who last worked in construction declined to 9.1 percent from 12.3 percent in July 2012, not seasonally adjusted, and the number of unemployed construction workers dropped by 227,000 to 767,000. The number of unemployed workers with prior construction experience was the lowest July total since July 2007, while the unemployment rate see UNEMPLOYMENT page 84
THE COMMERCIAL DISPATCH
COLUMBUS, Miss. (AP) It will likely be the end of September before the city can officially close out the Old Highway 82 bridge restoration project due to two factors — issues with the primer used in the painting process and a flock of protected migratory barn swallows who have made the construction site their temporary home. City engineer Kevin Stafford said the primer to be used for the steel portion of the bridge did not adhere to the steel structure in some places. The Mississippi Department of Transportation, which provided a $2.5 million restoration grant, has a list of approved paints that can be used for certain structures. True Grit, the sub-contractor Malouf Construction selected to paint the bridge, picked a primer coating provided by Sherwin Williams. After workers applied the first coat to a small portion of the bridge, representatives with Neelsee BRIDGE page 36

Purple Heart Homes Builds American Dream for Veterans By Christine Allen ASSISTANT EDITOR
Statistics representing the number of American men and women killed or wounded in the line of duty show the extent of loss in war, but the numbers don’t tell the veteran’s stories. For John Gallina and Dale Beatty, founders of Purple Heart Homes, the numbers hit home in 2004 when they were serving in Iraq. Both encountered two mines while on patrol, and were seriously injured. Beatty lost both legs from the knee down. Upon returning from Iraq, Beatty was the recipient of Fisher House Charities. “When we arrived home he [Beatty] was the beneficiary of Fisher House Charities and in the process we really saw the goodwill that came out both through the Fisher House and through our local community as they assisted him building a house,” said Gallina. “But there was a great focus in serving Iraq and Afghanistan veterans. There wasn’t a focus on helping older vets … we decided to start Purple Heart Homes, which focuses on assisting all veterans with their housing needs.” Purple Heart Homes provides assistance for all generation veterans. The founders recognized that not all injuries occur right away on the battlefield. Some veterans sustain injuries long after they return home, such as diabetes, neuropathy and post-traumatic stress disorder. These injuries not only damage their bodies, but their lifestyles and
financial situations. The problems can wreak havoc on a veteran’s credit in the form of medical bills and other expenses that make it hard or nearly impossible to own their own home. Both Gallina and Beatty noticed older veterans were not receiving assistance with these issues because their war was no longer in the news. “Part of Purple Heart Homes’ Mission is to help the public see that all veterans are equal,” said Gallina. “All disabled veterans are the same. We have all served our country, we all have needs, and they are ongoing.” In recognition of these needs, Purple Heart Homes joined five other charities to form a loose association named 555 Charity. The focus of this collaboration is to build five homes for five veterans in Denver, N.C. Each of these charities has the same passion and vision to help veterans and consolidated resources to get the job done. Projects like this allow the community to see what the veterans need. It gives individuals a vehicle to volunteer or donate. Purple Heart Homes know veterans who need help and understand their housing needs. The Patriot Charities and Military Family Lifestyle Charitable Foundation are two of the charities that work with Purple Heart Homes regularly. The Patriot Charities held several fundraisers to fund the first home, according to Dana Bradley, presi-

dent of The Patriot Charities. Independence Hill Baptist church donated, through their program Hearts and Hammers, the land for these five properties. “Any one of the charities would have difficulty performing the overwhelming work it takes to work with the veterans’ health care, integration in the community, and raise the funds to help with the housing,” said Rick Cantwell of Military Family Lifestyle Charitable Foundation.
The work the charities are involved with is more important than ever due to a growing veteran population. Charlotte, N.C., and surrounding cities such as Denver, N.C., have 50,000 veterans and will have 7,000 more in the next 18 months. Needs of the veterans as they move into these areas include health care, jobs, training and housing. It can be a challenge for veterans to find assistance, according to Cantwell. “There are so many different charities it is sometimes difficult for veterans to know where to turn to for help. What we have done in Charlotte is get the charities together to take on missions like this one that 555 Charity is going to do,” said Cantwell. 555 Charity has already gone to work for one veteran, Sgt. Jason Hyde. The first step was to raise money for the first home. Purple Heart Homes and each of the four other charities reached out to their corporate sponsors, such as the Carlyle Group, Bank of America and Wells Fargo for monetary donations and volunteers. Another group, Doosan Portable Power, learned about Purple Heart Homes and 555 Charity and wanted to help any way possible. Amy Meadows, Doosan Portable Power marketing communications specialist, met one of the co-founders of the Purple Heart Homes, Dale Beatty, during the balloon festival this past October. During their conversation, she learned about his organization see VETERANS page 81

MDOT Shifts Construction Money to Pay for Maintenance By Jack Elliott Jr. ASSOCIATED PRESS
JACKSON, Miss. (AP) The Mississippi Department of Transportation is dealing with its maintenance crisis the only way it can — shifting money away from new construction to the upkeep of more than 27,000 lane-miles. MDOT leaders said roads improved through its 1987 road program are now as old as 25 years and are breaking down. The dilemmas facing MDOT and the three-member elected Transportation Commission are that the cost of asphalt has tripled over recent years and fuel taxes haven’t produced enough money for new construction and maintenance needs. The three transportation commissioners say they have done the only thing they can — shift construction money to maintenance and hope for the best. A task force of lawmakers, business leaders and others created by the state Senate to look at highway needs will hit the road this fall to hear from the public. The task force expects to have a report completed for the 2014 Legislature. The task force has found that $400 million is needed annually to maintain Mississippi highways, but only $150 million was being
spent. Also while the need to maintain roads grows, the development of more efficient vehicles has depressed Mississippi’s consumption driven motor fuel taxes. “I commend the Senate for creating the task force ... some people over there realized they need to look at the problem. Realistically, I don’t know of anything that will come out of it,’’ said Central District Transportation Commissioner Dick Hall. Hall has advocated an increase in the fuel tax to bolster both the construction and maintenance budgets at MDOT. The proposal has generally fallen on deaf ears. Hall said the 1987 road program, funded with fuel taxes, made no provision for maintenance. “We are going to build 1,000 miles of road with not a nickel to take care of it,’’ he said. Hall said there are 27,156 lane-miles of highway and 4,630 of those miles are in serious need of rehabilitation. He said MDOT figures show the cost at around $960 million. Southern District Commissioner Tom King and Hall agree the task force’s best work may be in educating the public about highway needs. “The ’87 program was a wonderful thing but you have to maintain what you build,’’
said King. “It’s a situation of educating everyone about our need for funding and our work to maintain this highway system. I think a lot of people will recognize that we need more money whether it is fuel taxes or some other avenue. “It’s going to take a lot of working together and a determination to keep our highways safe — that’s our first priority.’’ In Mississippi, drivers pay state and federal taxes of 37.2 cents per gallon of gasoline and 43.2 cents per gallon of diesel — among the lowest in the nation. Mississippi’s excise tax is 18.8 cents per gallon on gasoline and diesel, with 0.4 cents going to an environmental protection fee. In coastal Hancock, Harrison and Jackson counties, there is an additional 3-cents-pergallon seawall tax. The federal tax is 18.4 cents per gallon for gasoline and 24.4 cents for diesel. Northern District Commissioner Mike Tagert said he hopes the task force recognizes the highway system is one of the state’s
economic engines. He said that includes keeping roads and bridges in shape to move raw materials and manufactured products through Mississippi. “There is a true economic development
“It’s going to take a lot of working together and a determination to keep our highways safe …” Tom King MDOT
impact if we have to restrict the movement of goods and services. Our objective is safety and keeping our highways and bridges open. Not being able to do that restricts the ability of our local communities to recruit industry and jobs,’’ he said.

U.S. Rental Revenue Continues to Outpace Economy The equipment rental industry in the United States continues to outpace gross domestic product (GDP) in the United States by four times in 2013, according to American Rental Association’s (ARA) latest forecast from the ARA Rental Market Monitor. Revenues will reach $33.5 billion in revenue, representing a 7.0 percent increase over 2012 with revenue growth reaching 7.8 percent in the fourth quarter according to the latest quarterly forecast updated July 29, 2013. Economic data and analysis for ARA’s Rental Market Monitor is compiled by IHS Global Insight, economic forecasting firm based in Lexington, Mass. In the United States, the construction market and consumer spending continue to be the most important drivers of growth of the equipment rental market in 2013.
“Though real nonresidential construction is forecast to decline 0.8 percent, real residential construction is expected to grow 8.2 percent, yielding an overall real construction growth rate of 2.6 percent in 2013. Real consumer spending is projected to increase 1.9 percent in 2013, with spending on recreational services forecast to grow 1.3 percent. These improvements will translate into increased revenue in all segments of the equipment rental market,” according to the U.S. economic analysis from the ARA Rental Market Monitor. The construction and industrial equipment segment is forecast to grow 8.1 percent in 2013, while general tool segment revenue is expected to increase 5.4 percent over 2012. Party and event rental revenue is forecast to increase 2.4 percent. The second quarter of
2013 is projected to be the slowest for the overall rental equipment market compared with 2012, but quarter-on-quarter growth is forecast to pick up in the final two quarters of the year. The forecast for 2014 is more positive, calling for 9.2 percent growth in U.S. equipment rental revenue followed by 12.9 percent growth in 2015. By the end of 2017, equipment rental revenue in the United States is expected to exceed $46.5 billion. In Canada, the equipment rental industry is forecast to generate nearly $4.6 billion in revenue in 2013, a 2.8 percent increase, and to continue growing throughout the forecast to reach nearly $5.4 billion in rental revenue in 2017. “As we look toward the third quarter of the year, we continue to see significant growth opportunity
in succeeding future years for equipment rental. The dynamics of the economy drive this industry, along with individual management initiative. Rental operators adeptly balance these factors to build their rental revenue volume. Rental penetration continues its growth pattern, as the customer base relies on rental as a preferred business option,” said Christine Wehrman, ARA’s executive vice president and CEO. “The U.S. economy slowed more than expected in the first half of the year, but equipment rental demand has remained strong. We have lowered our growth expectations for 2013 modestly to reflect this, but rental growth will still handily outperform the overall economy. The path ahead still looks promising with employment growth continuing and housing
data coming in strong, which implies an improving commercial construction market to follow. Industrial markets, especially those tied to energy exploration and production, also should see growth,” said Scott Hazelton, a senior partner with IHS Global insight, which compiles data and analyses for the ARA Rental Market Monitor. The ARA Rental Market Monitor is a subscription-based service for American Rental Association (ARA) members provided by ARA and Rental Management as part of a partnership with IHS Global Insight.

ASC Expands Into Scrap Industry With Sennebogen By Brenda Ruggiero CEG CORRESPONDENT
ASC Construction Equipment USA Inc. has been the Sennebogen dealer in North Carolina and South Carolina since 2010. At the time, Brad Stimmel, ASC president, was looking to expand the business, and that’s when Sennebogen came to his attention. “When I started to investigate the scrap industry, I saw that there were several good manufacturers,” said Stimmel. “But, after studying the market and the options, Sennebogen became my first choice. [They are] the market leader and their business philosophy is similar to ours.” Stimmel said that Sennebogen already had a strong presence in the scrap industry, so ASC planned to continue with the legacy. “What we bring to the table is a focus in the forestry, waste, and aggregates industry, as Volvo already has a significant presence in those industries,” Stimmel said. “With Sennebogen in our portfolio, we can now be a one stop shop for our customers.” Now that the relationship with Sennebogen is well established, ASC is taking a more aggressive approach with the product. This includes moving veteran ASC employee Rob Jordan into the position of material handling and demolition segment manager, which took place in April. He was pleased to accept the position and was asked if he wanted to go back out into the field. “I’m a sales guy at heart,” said Jordan. I have been involved with the Sennebogen product line for over 10 years and Sennebogen is a proven, quality product that I really believe in. Our account managers are involved with these customers because of the other products that we offer, but I’m the in-house specialist on the Sennebogen product line. So when there are any questions about the right type of machine, the right size of machine and what a customer needs, that’s where I assist the ASC sales team. It’s a joint effort between myself and the local account managers for every territory.” Jordan said that the biggest market for Sennebogen material handlers has predominantly been scrap yards and steel mills — anything to do with moving metal. “However, there are a lot of other opportunities that Sennebogen is really starting to branch out into in our territory,” Jordan said. One area of interest is a seaport. With the expansion of the Panama Canal, ports on the East Coast will be changing how they’re set up to accommodate these larger vessels, which means there will be greater opportunity for machines that will be needed to unload those vessels carrying bulk cargo. “Another industry that is really starting to take off is using Sennebogen machines in the logging industry — not actually cutting down the logs, but at lumber ASC appoints Rob Jordan material handling and demolition yards, saw mills, or pellet facilities — they use the segment manager. machines for unloading and stacking those logs,” said Jordan. “These are not necessarily new ideas for is where the two markets have met.

on your business if one particular segment is down,” said Jordan. “You need to try to balance everything out and split it between the markets. I also want to pursue other markets. If it’s not logging or ports or scrap, I want to see about other areas where we can potentially look at using these machines in the future.” About Sennebogen Sennebogen has been a leading name in the global material handling industry for nearly 60 years. Based in Stanley, N.C., within the greater Charlotte region, Sennebogen LLC offers a complete range of purpose-built machines to suit virtually any material handling application.

ConExpo 1975 — Chicago, Ill. Road Shows From Past to ‘Present’ CEG Gears Up for ConExpo 1975 These ConExpo articles were published in Construction Equipment Guide (CEG) on Feb. 5, 1975. These and other ConExpo articles to follow will be part of a continuing series that take a look back at ConExpos past through the reporting of CEG. We hope you enjoy these retros as much as we did searching for them deep in our archives.
Fifty years ago, in 1925, when the first formal road show was conducted in Chicago, the crowd of approximately 15,000 people was thought to be spectacular. Now, a half century later, the ConExpo, formally known as the Road Show, is anticipating a Chicago crowd of at least 150,000 to wander through the International Amphitheatre and McCormick Place to view practically every piece of construction equipment that is manufactured in the world. The first known road show was actually nothing more than a trade show conducted in Chicago in 1909 — at least these are the earliest available records of a meeting of this type. In 1925, the first major show was held in Chicago and was repeated again in 1926. In those years, crowds of 15,000 to 16,000 were considerable and the exhibit area available at that time was less than 100,000 square feet, which by today’s standards would only accommodate the three largest exhibitors at this year’s ConExpo. The early 1930s precluded any shows because of the condition of the economy, but by 1936 the construction industry association felt more confident and conducted a show in Cleveland. With over 14,000 visitors in attendance it made the show a great success. In 1938 another show was staged, using both indoor and outdoor space, also in Cleveland. The success of that year’s show provided the impetus to stage a show in San Francisco in 1939 to tie in with the Golden Gate Exposition. The advent of World War II prevented any road shows until 1948, when a show was held back in Chicago for the first time since 1926. That year’s production was staged at Soldier Field in Chicago and was the first totally outdoor show and also was the last summer time show that the association ever attempted. Regardless of the conditions, however, the magnitude of the show far exceeded any previous ones. It was at this show that there was in excess of a million square feet of exhibit space available, with over 75 percent of this used for equipment exhibits. It also was the first time that all exhibitors had as much space as they cared to use and the city of Chicago also had enough accommodations for
all of the visitors. After the 1948 success, the association changed their name to CIMA and scheduled the next road show for Chicago in February of 1957. Once again, even though it was nine years after the last voyage to Chicago, the show proved to be tremendously successful. The number of exhibitors and visitors, as well as the size of equipment on display, was larger than anything previously staged. However at this time it also became apparent that as the show got bigger, the cost and money involved was getting to be enormous. Regardless of the cost, the 1957 show was a huge success and as a result, 1963 was scheduled for the date
of the next show. The 1963 show was even bigger as the Amphitheatre, the largest exhibition hall in the country, was once again utilized. This show was the biggest ever and proved one thing … that the preparations, the costs and the time involved for such a show meant that a long period of preparation time had to be granted to all the exhibitors. The board at that time resolved on a six-year interval between shows. This would provide the industry, construction equipment manufacturers and their engineering departments with an adequate amount of time to develop and announce new equipment. It was at this time that the theme of the show was changed to ConExpo and 1969 was scheduled for the next show. The 1969 show turned more international in flavor as countries from all over the world were represented by well over 10,000 overseas visitors to Chicago. The ConExpo ’69 registered 124,000 guests and exhibitors invested an estimated $100 million, including the value of the equipment on display, cost of exhibits and the preparation and staging expenses of the show. Of the $100 million, approximately 60 percent was the cost of all the equipment on display. ConExpo ’75, which will be staged February 9 through the 14, will be housed in two buildings as the 1969 show was. The International Amphitheatre will be open from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. and McCormick

Place will be open from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. As to exhibitors, it could very briefly and correctly be stated that everyone will be there. As far as the major exhibitors are concerned, the dominating space of ConExpo ’75 will be taken by JI Case, Caterpillar Tractor Co., Clark Equipment Co., John Deere, Fiat-Allis, International Harvester, Challenge Cook, Poclain, Terex, MasseyFerguson, and Wabco, to mention a few. The exhibitors will number in excess of 200, to give you a good idea of the scope of this year’s ConExpo. In addition to equipment, you can also expect to see an extravaganza that will rival some Broadway productions. The entertainment will range from movies to miniature models of equipment working from computers and also being worked by electronics from nearby remote units. A laser manufacturer will give free training in leveling their laser units, the manufacturer of a large rear dump will allow you to lounge in the bed of the truck and listen to some narrators discuss the features of the vehicle. Various entertainers will be utilized including an ESP mental telepathy act, magicians will be on hand, as well as famous entertainers, athletes, and others who will all contribute to the construction industry on parade. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG Coming next issue: ConExpo ’75 Showcases the Latest, Greatest in Equipment.
(Editor’s note: This article was published in CEG Feb. 19, 1975.) ConExpo, the show everyone involved in the construction equipment industry has been waiting for, opened this past week in Chicago. Held every six years by CIMA, ConExpo is the world’s largest privately sponsored indoor trade show. The doors opened as Mayor Richard Daley cut the ribbon and the crowd poured in. And a crowd it was as 75,000 braved sub-zero temperatures on opening day to see and marvel at the latest developments in construction equipment. It was the largest opening day crowd in the 50year history of ConExpo and it didn’t stop there. By Monday night, only the second day of the event, the crowd had exceeded the most optimistic predictions of 125,000 for the entire week. The crowd was as varied as it was large, ranging from the mid-western excavator in his working clothes to some dressed in cowboy hats and boots, while others were in their Wall Street business suits; it seemed that all types of people came to see the exhibits. Over 15,000 people came from overseas representing about 80 countries. England, Europe, Japan, Australia, the Middle East and even some communist countries were among the many represented. There was plenty to see — 230 exhibitors displayed the latest in construction equipment, methods and accessories, for every segment of the construction industry. Thousands of pieces of equipment ranging in weight from many pounds to many hundreds of tons, were on exhibit in the two halls, McCormick Place and the International Amphitheatre, that offered over two million feet of space. The total value of the equipment on display was in excess of $150 million. The display was awesome. One of the attractions was a huge rubber-tire loader with a 24 cu. yd. bucket. It was so big it had to be displayed out of doors — a tall man could easily walk under it. Some manufacturers such as Fiat-Allis, John Deere and Massey Ferguson entered the heavy crawler market with many new models. The big scoop bucket was featured on several of the many excavators displayed. Articulated graders, huge rubber-tire loaders, a large electronic wheel dozer, all types of cranes and much foreign
made equipment were just some of the fascinating exhibits. The exhibitors themselves put on a first-class show. In addition to the dazzling array of equipment there were other attractions to pep up the weary eye. Shows, movies, comedy sketches, and stars all had a part in making this a great event. Football players, coaches and golfers were on hand to help promote. Jack Nicklaus, George Blanda, Ken Stabler, Roger Staubach and Don Shula were all there. Evil Knievel’s ill-fated rocket hung from a crane in McCormick Place. The show had to be seen to be experienced and its success encourages an optimistic outlook for the future.

Volvo Group Opens New SDLG Excavator Factory in Brazil Production has started in Brazil of excavators from Shandong Lingong Construction Machinery Co. Ltd (Lingong). The SDLG-branded machines will be built in a $10 million purpose-built assembly hall within the Volvo Group facility in Pederneiras, in the state São Paulo. To begin there will be four SDLG crawler excavator models produced — the LG6150E, LG6210E, LG6225E and LG6250E models, covering weight classes from 152 to 26.8 tons (13.8 to 24.3 t). The machines will be sold to companies working in a variety of industries, but in particular in the construction, forestry, agricultural, mining and extraction sectors.
The SDLG excavators will be manufactured in line with brand’s core values, with a focus on robust and reliable design in a cost effective package. This factory will be the first SDLG production facility outside China, but will mirror the manufacturing processes in place at its main facility in Linyi, China. Meeting Local Customer Needs SDLG machines have been sold in Brazil for a little over four years and in that time the company has established itself as one of the leading suppliers of construction equipment at the value end of the market. “Localized production will help SDLG be
more flexible and responsive to its customers and dealers in the region,” said Pat Olney, president and CEO of Volvo Construction Equipment. “We’re taking advantage of The Volvo Group’s long history in Brazil to introduce an exciting new initiative with these locally built SDLG excavators.” The production of SDLG excavators in Brazil will further increase the brand’s competitiveness by speeding up delivery times and opening up more favorable financing options for customers. SDLG will continue to operate in Brazil through its own branded organization with its dedicated distribution network and sales force with customer sup-
port. The Volvo Group holds a 70 percent shareholding interest of Shandong Lingong Construction Machinery Co. Ltd., manufacturer of the SDLG machines and one of the world’s three largest wheel loader manufacturers. The Volvo Group facility at Pederneiras also is home to a Volvo Construction Equipment factory that manufactures wheel loaders, excavators, motorgraders, articulated haulers and compactors.

ARTBA Tells Virginia Supreme Court to Uphold State’s P3 Enabling Law
Allowing a lower court’s decision to strike down Virginia’s Public Private Transportation Act would deprive citizens of a “necessary tool to meet a pressing public need” and potentially “undermine public-private partnership statutes in other states.” That was the key message delivered July 19 by the American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) to the Supreme Court of Virginia. The association, along with the National Conference of State Legislatures filed a “friend of the court” brief July 19 in the case of Elizabeth River Crossings OPCO LLC and Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) v. Danny Meeks. At issue is a lower court ruling which held that Virginia’s public private partnership (P3) enabling legislation was unconstitutional because it allowed VDOT to set toll rates on the Midtown Tunnel Extension project in the Hampton Roads region of Virginia. ARTBA’s brief argues that as manager of the state’s roadways, VDOT is the most qualified entity to determine toll revenues needed to support the Hampton Roads project.
P3’s have become a useful tool in helping cash-strapped states meet the public’s growing transportation needs. ARTBA stressed that, if allowed to stand, the lower court’s holding would prevent Virginia from entering into future P3 project agreements and also potentially put existing projects relying on tolls at risk. A number of other states have P3 enabling legislation that is structured similarly to the Virginia statute, and ARTBA is concerned the lower court ruling, if upheld, could foster challenges in other states. The case will now proceed to oral arguments, though an exact date has not yet been set. An in-depth discussion of the case and its potential impact on P3 projects in other parts of the country took place July 25 as part of ARTBA’s milestone 25th Annual Public Private Partnerships Conference in Washington.

Sinkhole Destroys Florida Resort Arrival of Swallows Impede Restoration Building in Clermont; No One Hurt By Kyle Hightower ASSOCIATED PRESS
ground slowly...You could see the stress fractures up the side of the structure getting wider.” Caldwell said 48 three-story units are a total loss. The resort has about 900 units spread over a large area about 10 miles west of Walt Disney World. “No one is hurt,” said Caldwell. “Thank God for that.” The sinkhole, which is in the middle of the villa, is about 40 to 50 ft. (12 to 15 m) in diameter, Cuellar said. He said authorities think it was getting deeper but couldn’t tell early Monday if it was growing outward. A nearby villa was also evacuated as a precaution and that there had been a sign of a gas leak, but the gas had been shut off. Summer Bay is described on its website as a luxury resort with condominiums, two-bedroom villas and vacation houses in addition to standard rooms. The site touts a clubhouse, atrium and pool-
CLERMONT, Fla. (AP) As glass broke, the ground shook and lights went out, vacationers evacuated a central Florida resort building before a sinkhole caused a section of the villa to partially collapse early Aug. 12. About 30 percent of the three-story structure collapsed around 3 a.m., Aug. 12, Lake County Fire Rescue Battalion Chief Tony Cuellar said, and another section was sinking. The development’s president said the resort underwent geological testing when it was built about 15 years ago, showing the ground to be stable, and that there were no signs before Sunday that a sinkhole was developing. He said all affected guests had been given other rooms. Witnesses told The Associated Press they could hear a cracking sound as the villa began sinking. A large crack was visible at the building’s base. Luis Perez, who was staying at a villa near the sinking one, said he was in his room when the lights went off around 11:30 p.m. He said he was on his way to the front desk to report the outage when he saw firefighters and police outside. “I started walking toward where they were at and you could see the building leaning and you could see a big crack at the base of the building” said Perez of Berona, N.J.

of Highway Bridge BRIDGE from page 1
Schaffer and Malouf Construction ran a test to assess the amount of time the coat was taking to dry. “We would come back behind it and run our test, and the paint was peeling off the bridge, not bad, [but] in some places it was sticking, some places it was peeling off,’’ Stafford said. Sherwin Williams representatives conducted their own tests and said that the paint was fine, but that it needed more time to dry. “I never talked to Sherwin Williams [representatives] but I heard through a conversation with Malouf that we could be talking about a month, month-and-a-half just for the first coat to dry, much less the other coats that go on after that,’’ Stafford said. The only other option then was to find another primer, but there wasn’t another one on the approved list. Stafford said Sherwin Williams and MDOT met to work out a solution. In the meantime, workers with True Grit pressure washed the structure to remove the coat of primer. Now, Sherwin Williams has a variety of primer that has been tested on the bridge that works and cures more quickly. MDOT started its own test on the coat, Stafford said. Once its test is complete and it approves it, the sub-contractor will return to the site to apply this first coat. “They’re going to start back full blast with the primer,’’ Stafford said. “Once you get the primer down, the intermediate and final coats are actually sticking to something they’ve used before. I would hope that they’re going to be no problem at all.’’ The barn swallows began appearing recently while workers were applying the primer. MDOT environmentalists confirmed they were that variety of bird and because they are a protected species, anything done to compromise the birds or their habitat would be environmental violations, Stafford said. “What their nests look like is a large dirt-dauber nest. I would say there’re 30-plus nests just along one side. MDOT said they’ll abandon those nests sometime in late August or early September and should be gone by mid-September. “By mid-September, they said you can take the nests down without any action from us. We won’t be affecting anything environmentally,’’ Stafford said. Stafford said workers should be done painting the bridge by the end of August before they install the boardwalk and lights. “I would hope by the end of August you’ll see the scaffolding and the netting start to come down and so you can actually see what the final product is going to look like minus the boardwalk and lights,’’ he said. While this takes place, workers also will install a sidewalk that will connect the Riverwalk to the east end of the bridge. Stafford said though Malouf’s contract was originally up at the end of July, there will be no penalty for them going over because of the extraordinary circumstances that caused the delays. There is no timetable for a ribbon-cutting. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) You didn’t notice the 6.4 cents-per-gallon overnight drop in the price of gasoline the morning of July 1? You didn’t notice it because it didn’t happen. Somewhere between the oil company pipelines and your pocketbook, the state gasoline tax decrease that took effect when the final seconds of June ticked off the clock took a detour. Had the tax break been passed along to consumers, the June 30 statewide average of $3.36 per gallon as calculated by GasBuddy.com should have fallen the next day to $3.29.6 per gallon. Instead, it declined just nine-tenths of a penny, to $3.35.1. Over four days, the statewide average declined by 3.1 cents, then shot to about $3.50 per gallon. Virginia tax changes had no bearing because comparable price shifts played out at the same time in bordering states’ price averages. The lower tax was the shiny selling feature on Virginia’s first-in-a-generation transportation funding makeover. The new law is engineered to yield an additional $1.4 billion for long-needed road and rail projects that lay unfunded and dormant for a decade or more. The transportation funding triumph stands as Republican Gov. Bob McDonnell’s most conspicuous legislative legacy — a feat that eluded two Democratic predecessors. Now, less than half a year before his single, non-successive term expires, it’s the brightest point in McDonnell’s scandal-scarred final year. It’s not the same bill McDonnell proposed in January on the eve of the 2013 General Assembly. His legislation would have made Virginia the first state without a tax on gasoline. He’d have shifted more of the revenue burden onto Virginia’s retail sales and use tax. The compromise that emerged from a tax-averse, GOP-ruled legislature was quite different, but one that McDonnell came to embrace and even champion, despite having to ally himself with legislative Democrats to win passage when his own party split with conservatives balking at the new taxes. It replaced the failing 17.5-cents-per-gallon retail tax on gasoline with a 3.5 percent tax on the wholesale cost of gas — at June 30 prices, a per-gallon decrease of 6.4 cents. Revenues had declined for years under the obsolete volume-based levy because of greater automotive fuel efficiency and a decrease in discretionary driving after monumental gas price increases. Keyed to price, the new tax will keep pace with inflation. Other taxes besides gasoline were devot-
ed to transportation. The sales and use tax increased from 5 percent to 5.3 percent statewide. There’s a $64 annual registration fee on hybrid and alternative-fuel vehicles and increases the titling tax on car purchases from 3 percent to 4.3 percent. Other taxes apply in urbanized areas, generating up to $350 million for northern Virginia and $200 million for Hampton Roads for projects exclusively within those regions. McDonnell is proud of it. “We had a 30 year funding failure to fix and a 30 year backlog in construction to address, and this bill did it,’’ McDonnell spokesman J. Tucker Martin said as McDonnell returned from a Department of Defense trip to the Middle East and Germany to visit American troops. “Like all bills there certainly could be technicalities to work out and items to address as it moves forward, but when it comes to transportation in Virginia, the next decade should be about paving and building, not sitting and debating,’’ Martin said. He’s right. Without a change, Virginia risked burning out its economic engines — northern Virginia and Hampton Roads — in interminable highway gridlock that strands commuters on asphalt deserts for hours daily. Virginia also risked losing billions in federal transportation funds if the state couldn’t muster its matching share. But the technicalities he mentioned could cost you. First, there’s serious concern over a Portsmouth judge’s ruling against tolls necessary to finance an ongoing $2 billion public-private project to build new highway tunnels connecting Portsmouth and Norfolk beneath the Elizabeth River. If the Virginia Supreme Court upholds Portsmouth Circuit Judge James Cales’ decision, it could imperil toll-financed public-private highway projects across the state and cost taxpayers billions of dollars. Second, the new law presumes that a dysfunctional Congress can pass the Marketplace Fairness Act that would allow states to collect sales taxes from online merchants and interstate catalog sales. If it doesn’t pass this year, Virginia will miss out on hundreds of millions of dollars in additional revenue, and it would trigger an automatic jump in Virginia’s wholesale gasoline tax from 3.5 percent to 5.1 percent. Unlike the first morning of July, that’s a price change that will probably be passed along to you at the pump.

LoMc Credits Ohio CAT, IROCK, Hard Work to Success It’s a testimony to both men that Joshua McNary’s former employer, Jerry Baden of TVEK Enterprises, helped he and partner, William Lockhart get their start in business, named LoMc LLC, in the fall of 2012 with a screening plant they built themselves. When they landed a job recovering iron from an old Republic Steel dump site in Canton, Ohio, they were tasked with processing a five acre mound averaging 60 to 70 ft. (18 to 21 m) deep. Faced with moving a mountain to separate slag from the reusable iron, McNary and Lockhart soon set about searching for equipment that would deliver greater efficiency. The first screening plant they tried out was an improvement but still didn’t provide the processing speed they’d need if they were to stay in business. Joshua McNary with a hand held magA call to Chris Harris of Ohio CAT put net shows the iron content in this them on the road to profitability.

They’re currently running an IROCK TS-522 triple deck tracked screener and an IROCK TS-522 double deck tracked screener on the job. In the first stage of the process, they load materials into the triple deck screener to separate materials into piles of 2x slag. Slag fines and the remaining materials are conveyed past a Dings #33 magnet to separate out iron from 304 slag. The second stage is to run the iron materials through the IROCK TS-522 double deck tracked screener to separate 23/4 in. iron from 3/8 to 1/8 in. iron and a final recovery of Finished product piles up after being processed by the fines.

He said that both IROCK and Ohio CAT are great to work with. Both companies are extremely responsive to their needs, providing a level of support that indicates a vested interest in their ongoing success. Maintenance and service issues have been treated with a demonstrated concern for LoMc LLC’s success. LoMc LLC, which currently has six employees, with plans to add four to five more, now has four IROCK plants, two Cat excavators, and two Cat wheel loaders along with other miscellaneous equipment. LoMc LLC employs two IROCK TS-522 conveyor systems and Dings magnets to stockpile recycled iron destined for steel mills in Ohio, Michigan and surrounding states.

Responding to Disaster…
For the First Time...
W.S. Tyler Pro-Deck Screen Approach National Demolition Now Includes Modular Screen Media Association Director W.S. Tyler has expanded its consultative Pro-Deck approach to vibrating screens using modular screen media. For the first time, customers are able to benefit from the flexibility of modular panels in combination with the ProDeck approach for extended screen life and higher production rates. “Many mine operators and producers prefer the wear life of modular screen media, but think that this comes with a high sacrifice in open area. With Pro-Deck, different style screen panels are blended in a way that both wear life and open area are optimized,” said Darcy Bishop, manager of W.S. Tyler’s media division. The Pro-Deck approach is a fivestep process that implements W.S. Tyler’s vibration analysis and modification strategy to professionally blend multiple types of screen media on a single deck. Traditionally, processing operations have used the same screen media on an entire deck of the vibrating screen. But after extensive research and years of experience, W.S. Tyler concluded that a non-traditional approach of incorporating more than one type of screen media extends the life of the screen media while also enhancing efficiency. Additionally, the Pro-Deck approach helps eliminate common screening problems such as blinding, pegging and premature wear that cause unscheduled downtime, according to the manufacturer. The Tyler Pro-Deck process begins with an onsite visit to the vibrating screen by a Pro-Deck specialist. Using its self-developed vibration analysis tool, W.S. Tyler’s screening experts ensure that the machine is working within the operational parameters specific to the application requirements. Based on screen performance and the wear experienced on the individual sections and deck, a recommendation for screen media modification is made. Upon implementation of the new screen media, the results are measured and documented before focusing on the next section. This process continues until all recommendations are implemented and the customer’s product

quality is positively enhanced. In addition, it allows the customer to continuously evaluate the new performance and wear advantages. “We recommend a Pro-Deck setup for any operator or producer using modular panels. Pro-Deck offers a solution for virtually every situation, regardless of whether the user is experiencing blinding, contamination or excessive wear. Pro-Deck can even improve situations in which both screening results and wear are deemed satisfactory,” said Bishop. “The secret to Pro-Deck’s success lies in understanding that the vibrating screen and the screen media are an integral system. You need to synchronize both in order to achieve optimal results.” W.S. Tyler Modular screen media is generally customized to every application and often manufactured in 1x1, 1x2, and 1x4 sized panels. Formulated with rubber, polyurethane or a wire and polyurethane hybrid blend, these panels are known for high wear life in comparison to tensioned wire cloth screens. The modular panels are lightweight, easy to handle, and designed to be snapped in or installed with a builtin pin and sleeve or groove system, making screen media changeouts quick
and simple. Additionally, a single person can perform changeouts safely, according to the manufacturer. W.S. Tyler offers an extensive line of screen media products to build the right Pro-Deck for their customers’ applications. “Our Ty-Wire hybrid panels deliver amazing results as they combine the open area of woven wire with the wear characteristics of polyurethane. TyWire has become an integral building block in designing customized ProDecks for our customers,” said Bishop. Because of their high durability and the capacity to change out only small portions of the deck, modular panels are ideal for high impact areas. When used in these situations, particularly as part of a Pro-Deck setup, modular panels are cost effective. Although the panels have a higher initial cost per square foot, their long-term cost is lower because operators only have to change out the worn portions of the screen rather than changing out an entire traditional tensioned wire cloth screen.

In testimony on July 9 before the Pennsylvania House Committee on Urban Affairs concerning legislation meant to change safety requirements for city demolition projects, the executive director of the National Demolition Association supported many elements of the law but took issue with requirements on project oversight. Specifically, the bill would require all demolition plans for commercial structures in class one cities in the commonwealth to be reviewed by a licensed architect or professional engineer. “While in no way impugning the value of these professions … they simply lack the training and education in the demolition process to oversee the work being performed by a competent demolition contractor,” said Michael R. Taylor, executive director of the NDA. “The National Demolition Association strongly recommends the use of a professional engineer when an association member is confronted with a challenging structural issue on a project site…however, few, if any, architects or professional engineers, unless they have worked in the demolition industry, have the training or expertise to knowledgeably comment on the work plans of a demolition project.” The hearing was precipitated by the June 5 demolition accident in Philadelphia that killed six people. The NDA was invited to provide testimony because it represents more than 800 firms involved in the approximately $5 billion U.S. demolition industry. Taylor pointed out in his testimony that according to statistics compiled by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and OSHA, the seemingly dangerous industry is in fact overwhelmingly safe, with only one workplace fatality occurring every one million man-hours. “It seems a wise idea to the association to include a system of review of construction codes, administrators and third party agencies charged with enforcement and administration of laws,” Taylor said. He noted that under OSHA standard 29 CFR 1926.850, a written engineering survey is prepared by a competent person to determine a structure’s condition and the possibility of unplanned collapse of any portion of the structure. In the testimony, Taylor also addressed the proposed requirement for at least $1 million in liability insurance could have an economic impact on certain smaller demolition projects. “For companies new to the demolition industry, these additional costs could have an impact on getting started in the industry,” Taylor said.

912HM Flatbed to Join Hydrema Dump Truck Product Line Hydrema’s 912HM flatbed truck will join seven other models in the articulated dump truck product line. Based off the 912HM articulated dump truck model, the 912HM flatbed features a 1.6 ft. (.5 m) extended rear half with a built-in tipping frame ideal for the construction, utility and oil and gas industries. The 912HM flatbed is equipped with a 131 hp (97.6 kW), Perkins E1104D-44TA Tier III engine and accommodates up to 22,000 lbs. (9,979 kg) providing superior hauling capacity and combined with a 24 mph (38.6 kmh) travel speed, Hydrema’s newest addition offers maximum productivity, according to the manufacturer. “We are pleased to expand our product line with the addition of the 912HM flatbed truck,” said
Kris Binder, vice president of Hydrema North America. “The launch of this new model closely aligns with our goals to continually diversify our equipment offerings in order to provide innovative solutions for the evolving needs of our customers.” The 912HM flatbed includes a heavy-duty, robot-welded, articulated chassis as well as Hydrema’s front axle suspension. The newly developed suspension features a center pivot with pendulum bar and double hydraulic stabilizers allowing operators the option of locking the oscillation movement at up to 22 degrees. Along with the durable design, Hydrema’s 912HM offers low ground pressure — 7.6 front psi and 12.3 rear psi — which makes working on even
the softest ground conditions possible. The machine utilizes its 2.6 ft. (.8 m) wide 30 in. (79 cm) wheels, high ground clearance, articulated pivot steering system and automatic weight transfer to successfully and efficiently traverse delicate terrain. Standard features of the 912HM flatbed include a suspended front axle, suspended cab, front outside heated mirrors, adjustable steering wheel, interior red cab lighting for night use, heated seats, radio with CD and MP3 players, rotating beacon, eight megabeam working lights and automatic AC. For more information, call 877/449-3736 or visit www.hydrema.us.

Talbert Six-Axle Steer Dolly Adds Capacity for Superloads The six-axle steer dolly from Talbert Manufacturing offers versatility, additional steering control and extra capacity to handle self-supporting superloads for a variety of industries. The 60-ton (54 t) dolly is ideal for everything from heavy, low-riding materials, such as bridge beams and steel girders, to tower sections for wind energy development. Originally developed for use with Talbert’s double schnabel to haul wind energy components such as tower bases, sections and blades, the six-axle steer dolly can now be used as a stand-alone product for alternate trailer configurations. The unit comprises two groups of three axles with the axles in each group spaced at 60 in. (152 cm). With a bunk between the two groups that is connected to the rear-axle bearings through a tie rod system, the total spread is 16 ft. 1 in. (4.8 m). This configuration allows operators to carry more weight and complies with federal bridge laws. With such a high center of gravity, these
loads have increased potential for dangerous overturn situations. The six-axle steer dolly is 10 ft. (3 m) wide for increased roll stability and safety. Further, each individual axle is mounted to a radial bearing that provides a tighter steering system for a more stable platform. The front three axles are fixed and non-
steerable and feature cut-off valves and lift chains. A mechanical self-steering system allows the rear axles to turn progressively up to 30 degrees on the sixth axle. This incremental steering allows the rear dolly to more easily maneuver around a common center point. The speed of steering also is adjustable to accommodate various load
lengths and the desired turning radius. An oversteer alarm is mounted on the steer dolly along with a wireless audio alarm with lights for the tractor cab. A hydraulic power pack allows operators to override mechanical steering with a manual, wireless remote. This option is ideal for pilot car drivers escorting superloads. In addition, truck operators can adjust the bunk height from 40 to 50 in. (101 to 127 cm) to clear overhead obstacles such as electrical lines and traffic signs and obstructions beneath the unit such as speed bumps. The unit also features Ridewell Model 240 air ride suspension. The dolly can be picked up using its four D-rings and stacked on a trailer or the front jeep for easy transport after load delivery. For more information, call 800/348-5232 or visit www.talbertmfg.com.

USDOT Announces Plan to Save Trucking Industry $1.7B U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx announced a proposal to eliminate a burdensome daily paperwork requirement for professional truck drivers that will reduce costs to the industry by an estimated $1.7 billion annually while still maintaining the department’s high safety standards. “President Obama challenged his administration to find ways to cut waste and red tape, a challenge I pledged to meet during my confirmation hearing,” said Foxx. “With today’s proposal, we are delivering on that pledge, saving business billions of dollars while maintaining our commitment to safety. It’s the kind of win-win solution that I hope our department will continue to find over the coming months.” “This is a great example of the progress being made under the administration’s regulatory lookback initiative,” said Office of Management and Budget Director Sylvia Mathews Burwell. “The administration is carefully examining rules on the books to see where we can streamline, modify or repeal regulations to reduce unnecessary burdens and costs on businesses and consumers. By making this common-sense change to the DVIR process, the Department
of Transportation is dramatically reducing paperwork burdens on the trucking industry, while continuing to protect public safety.” Current federal regulations require commercial truck drivers to conduct preand post-trip equipment inspections and file driver vehicle inspection reports (DVIRs) after each inspection, regardless of whether or not an issue requiring repairs is identified. DVIRs are the 19th-highest paperwork burden, based on the number of hours needed to comply, imposed across all federal agencies and only 5 percent of reports filed include defects. Foxx’s announcement represents the largest paperwork reduction achieved since President Obama’s May 2012 executive order to reduce regulatory burdens on the private sector. Under the proposed change announced, commercial truck drivers would continue conducting pre- and post-trip inspections. However, DVIRs would be required only if defects or deficiencies were discovered by or reported to the driver during the day’s operations.
“We can better focus on the 5 percent of problematic truck inspection reports by eliminating the 95 percent that report the status quo,” said Federal Motor Carrier Safety
conducted by a certified commercial vehicle mechanic. In addition, state and federal inspectors conduct unannounced, random inspections of commercial vehicles at terminals, weigh stations, truck stops along the roadside and at destinations. Vehicles that fail random safety inspections are immediately placed out of service and not allowed to operate until the identified safety problems are addressed. In 2012, approximately 3.5 million random inspections were conducted. In June 2012, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration eliminated a comparable requirement for Anthony Foxx truck drivers operating intermodal equipment trailers used for transportU.S. Department of Transportation ing containerized cargo shipments. By eliminating a requirement for Administrator Anne S. Ferro. “Moving to a drivers to submit “no defect” inspection defect-only reporting system would reduce a reports of intermodal equipment trailer, cost significant paperwork burden facing truck savings to the intermodal industry is estimatdrivers and save the industry billions without ed to be $54 million annually without an compromising safety.” adverse impact upon safety.

PACCAR MX-13 Engine Offers Fuel Economy Benefits Coming off a record year of PACCAR MX engine sales in Kenworth trucks, Kenworth is anticipating even further proprietary engine adoption with the PACCAR MX-13. “We’ve taken an excellent engine platform and made it even better with the PACCAR MX-13,” said Preston Feight, Kenworth assistant general manager of sales and marketing. “The immediate impact is an improvement in fuel economy of up to 3.5 percent. That’s a significant gain for customers which may amount to about a $2,500 annual fuel savings for the typical longhaul truck averaging 120,000 miles per year. “We feel that Kenworth and the PACCAR MX-13 will be the truck make and engine of choice for those fleet and truck operators who want a fuel-efficient, reliable 12.9-liter engine in their Class 8 trucks,” said Feight. Designed for linehaul and vocational heavy duty truck operators, the PACCAR MX-13 utilizes the latest common rail fueldelivery technology, which enables injection pressures of up to 2,500 bar, enhancing fuel efficiency and performance. The common rail system uses controls to regulate the fuel in a central manifold, only compressing the amount
of fuel mixture needed. The result is finer fuel atomization for optimized combustion, enabling lower fuel consumption and emissions, according to the manufacturer. In addition to its fuel efficiency, the engine offers high reliability and durability, lightweight design and low cost of ownership. The PACCAR MX-13 is rated up to 500 hp (372.7 kW) and is the only 13-L class engine rated up to 1,850 lb.-ft. of torque. It is available for Kenworth Class 8 models, including the T660, T680, T700, T800, T880 and W900. The PACCAR MX13 is assembled at the PACCAR engine plant in Columbus, Miss. The PACCAR MX-13 meets the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulation requiring that all model-year 2013 engines be equipped with on-board diagnostics (OBD). OBD improves engine reliability by monitoring the performance of the vehicle’s emission system to help detect emission issues, recognize component faults, and ensure optimal performance.

Atlas Copco Releases New Line of Bucket Crushers
A Terex dozer blade, attached to a Terex compact track loader, gives precision control and visibility for a wide range of earthmoving and site prep applications.
Terex Attachments Work With Compact Track Loaders Using compact track loaders with different attachments can revolutionize a small business, enabling it to bid on larger projects and to work in all weather and ground conditions. By carefully selecting the right attachments, customers can maximize their profits — the attachments pay for themselves. Because compact track loaders use the same attachments (buckets, dozer blades, mulchers, augers, trenchers, levelers, box rakes, snow blowers, backhoes, etc.) and perform in the same applications as skid steers (construction, landscaping, rental forestry and agricultural applications), the most distinct advantage of a compact track loader (CTL) is its maneuverability in adverse ground conditions. CTLs provide exceptional operation in muddy or snowy conditions where skid steers would not be able to work at all. Dozer blades are an excellent example of an attachment that normally isn’t used with skid steers due to their limited tractive effort, according to Terex. A compact track loader has an advantage over a skid steer for dozing especially on uneven terrain, slopes, and muddy or snowy
ground conditions, which can be very challenging and tough on skid steer loaders. CTLs are designed and built to handle these types of conditions. Most operators start out by hitting the high points in the first passes so that they have a more even surface to work on for completing the finish grade. A Terex dozer blade, attached to a Terex compact track loader, gives precision control and visibility for a wide range of earthmoving and site prep applications. The Terex loader’s traction, flotation and stability enables you to work in ground conditions that prevents other machines — even other compact track loaders — from working at all, according to the manufacturer. Two different models match the blade to the width of the machine. Hydraulic connections for power tilt and angle are via quick disconnect fittings to the machine’s low flow auxiliary hydraulics. Control of power tilt and angle are via switches integrated in the machine’s right-hand joystick.

Rig-mounted bucket crushers solve job site waste management issues by recycling asphalt, stone and concrete debris as well as mine, quarry and trench material. The recycled material may be reused on site or sold to third parties. The new line became available July 1.

Loftness Introduces New Carbide Cutter G3 Attachment As part of its VMLogix line of products, Loftness introduced the Carbide Cutter G3 high-performance mulching head attachment for skid steers. This new generation product incorporates the latest cutting-tooth technologies and power drive systems, while maintaining the rugged reliability expected of Loftness equipment, according to the manufacturer. The Carbide Cutter G3 is available with 51-, 61- and 71-in. (129.5, 155 and 180 cm) cutting widths. All models are offered with a variety of carbide-tipped and heat-treated steel teeth to match any job application. The precisely engineered spiral tooth pattern on the rotor ensures continuous tooth contact with the material being cut. For maximum cutting performance, the Carbide Cutter G3 features a two-stage cutting chamber with staggered counter teeth and a shear bar. This combination of features results in small particle sizes, while eliminating the jamming and wrapping issues associated with other products, according to the manufacturer. An optional primary-stage shear bar also is available for ultra-fine mulching. The mulching heads operate at 1,700 to 2,150 rpm and feature a four-groove banded belt drive with spring-loaded tensioner. They come standard with a fixed-displacement, piston-style motor that delivers hydraulic power at 97-percent efficiency, which is much higher than traditional gear-type motors offer. The fixed-displacement motor can be upgraded to the V-Drive system that includes a variable-displacement motor with load-sensing technology. Under light loads, the V-Drive system operates at maximum rpm, and as the load increases, it automatically lowers the rotor rpm to maximize torque. The mulching head offers full rotation, due to specially designed hose routing. This feature also allows the unit to easily position trees with the adjustable push bar and welded claw hooks. The push bar can be used to push falling brush and trees away from the

power unit, and the claw hooks can pull material into position for proper feeding. Hydraulic push bar adjustment is optional. The Carbide Cutter G3 also is designed for maximum durability. For instance, highstrength Hardox steel is used in areas exposed to high wear. Furthermore, the Carbide Cutter G3 is equipped with a custom hydraulic control valve that protects the unit
from pressure spikes, and it also stops the rotor quickly on shut-down without damaging the components, according to the manufacturer. Other standard features include an onboard pressure gauge, steel deflector chains and adjustable skid shoes. Tooth options include standard carbide teeth, planer carbide teeth and Quadco planer blades.
Loftness manufactures the VMLogix line of vegetation management equipment, the GrainLogix line of grain-bagging equipment, and the CropLogix line of crop shredders.

WEX Releases Construction Fuel Consumption Results WEX Inc., a provider of corporate payment solutions, in collaboration with IHS, Inc., global source of critical information and insight, released results of its WEX Construction Fuel Consumption Index (FCI), which indicated a decrease of 0.6 percent in May versus its level at the same time the previous year. The WEX Construction FCI measures national fuel consumption statistics for the construction industry, which provides an accurate and up-to-date indication of construction activity in the United States. WEX worked with IHS to capture and analyze transaction data from its closed loop network, which includes more than 90 percent of the domestic retail fuel locations. With this data, the WEX Construction FCI can be used to identify emerging trends within the construction industry and the national economy. The indicators were tested at monthly, quarterly and annual frequencies, with the greatest insights produced using the year-over-year percent change of the monthly data. For May 2013, the WEX Construction FCI reported that fuel consumption by U.S. construction companies decreased 0.6 percent versus May 2012 and increased 0.8 percent versus the previous month. The WEX Construction FCI reflected the first yearover-year decline since
September 2012, and additional government data releases were generally more positive than the 0.7 percent decline indicated by the seasonally-adjusted index in April. Private residential construction increased by 1.7 percent in April and construction spending excluding improvements — a good measure of activity — rose by 0.9 percent in the same period. Housing permits surged by 14.3 percent to an annual rate of 1.02 million, which is the highest rate since June 2008; however, housing starts dropped in April by 16.5 percent to an annual rate of 853,000. Total construction put-inplace, which is released a month later than the WEX Construction FCI, increased by 0.4 percent in April. The total employment report was positive with an increase of 175,000 jobs, and the construction industry gained 7,000 jobs, indicating that the private sector is largely shrugging off the federal government spending sequester.
percent in April and total inventory increased by 11.9 percent, although much of the increase was seasonal and inventories remain extremely lean. Home prices continue to rise as a result of these lean inventories, low interest rates, the growing economy and the decreased share of distressed homes. These higher home prices, in turn, are bringing more builders into the game. The housing market is expected to continue to improve and outperform the rest of the economy over the next few quarters, due to the low level of housing inventory and low interest rates. The recovery in housing would be even stronger if it was not for the difficult lending requirements facing would-be buyers. For more information, visit www.wexinc.com.
IHS Analysis According to the IHS analysis, alongside the month-to-month gain in May for the WEX Construction FCI, the housing market also has been showing signs of improvement. New home sales increased by 2.3 percent in April to a 454,000-unit annual rate. Meanwhile, existing home sales rose 0.6

555 Charity Puts Out Call for Donations,Volunteers VETERANS from page 8
and what it did for disabled veterans. Since her husband also is a veteran of Operation Enduring Freedom, Meadows felt compelled to find a way to help this cause. Doug Dennington, customer service representative of Doosan Portable Power, is a veteran from Desert Storm and agreed that the Doosan Portable Power team should become involved in the Purple Heart Homes effort. After sufficient funds were raised by the groups, construction of the first Denver, N.C., home began. “Our team began work by sweeping and scraping the floors and walls of the entire house to remove the sheet rock sanding particles and paste. Next, we painted the entire upstairs with primer. During the afternoon, our team primed the downstairs walls and helped to hang siding on the outside of the house,” said Meadows. “We are proud to say Doosan Portable Power employees took time to give back to those who have given so much for our country.” One of the biggest challenges building the home was scheduling the volunteers, and working around holidays, vacations and job schedules. However, the project created volunteer opportunities for those that could not donate money but could donate their time
and services. Another challenge was building awareness for the first project. Upon completion of the home, Sergeant Hyde will receive a mortgage for 50 percent of the value of the home. The mortgage he pays will then go toward the construction of the next home. After five years, the full equity of the home will become available to him. This will provide each veteran not only a home, but also the opportunity to build up their financial situation and credit.
“For us it’s been a terrific experience assisting a veteran that has worked really hard for our freedom, and we are giving him the opportunity to own a very nice home and start a new chapter of life for him and his family,” said Bradley.

Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers Announces New IronPlanet App Quarter Results, Increases Dividend Improves Equipment Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers Incorporated announced net earnings and adjusted net earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, of $30.0 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, compared to net earnings of $31.3 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, representing a 4 percent decrease in net earnings, and adjusted net earnings of $32.5 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the same period in 2012, representing a 7 percent decrease in adjusted net earnings. The company’s auction revenues for the second quarter of 2013 grew 1 percent to $128.3 million compared to $127.2 million for the same period in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, net earnings and adjusted net earnings were $44.1 million, or $0.41 per diluted share. This compares to net earnings of $49.3 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, and adjusted net earnings of $50.5 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, representing an 11 percent decrease in adjusted net earnings. The company’s auction revenues during the first six months of 2013 grew 1 percent to $230.4 million compared to $228.5 million for the same period in 2012. During the second quarter of 2013, the company conducted 72 unreserved industrial auctions in 14 countries throughout North America, Central America, Europe, the Middle East and Australia. Commenting on the performance of the company, Peter Blake, CEO of Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers said: “While we were pleased with our strong revenue rate performance in the quarter, our gross auction proceeds are down year over year as our business continues to contend with a reduced supply of used equipment within the three to five year age bracket — a traditionally strong segment of our auction business. We expect this supply shortage will dissipate in the future as larger inventories of newer machinery become available for resale. Although this macro challenge has created headwinds for our business, we are focusing on what we can control and executing strategies to drive our growth. “Our continued recruitment of new territory managers has significantly expanded the size of our sales force, and we expect the productivity of our new TMs will improve as they gain experience, build customer relationships and benefit from targeted training. In addition, our disciplined approach to purchase and guaranteed consignment contracts, our ‘at risk’ business, continued to bring positive results, leading to another near-record auction revenue rate for the second quarter. We are not pleased with the company’s lack of gross auction proceeds growth and the resulting performance through the first half of the year and have taken steps to better align our costs with our current revenue levels. These steps included reorganizing some administration departments and our teams associated with capital infrastructure and also rationalizing some operational procedures. We continue to make progress in growing our sales force and delivering solid results from our ‘at risk’ business, and we believe the full impact of those strategies will be demonstrated in our future performance.” Quarterly Dividend The company also announced a 6 percent increase in its quarterly cash dividend. The quarterly cash dividend increases to $0.1300 per common share payable on Sept. 13, 2013, to shareholders of record on Aug. 23, 2013.
Gross Auction Proceeds and Auction Revenues Gross auction proceeds were $1.1 billion during the second quarter of 2013, a 10 percent decrease compared to the same period in 2012. This decline is primarily attributable to the increased average age of items sold at auctions, largely as a result of the OEM production decrease during the recent recession which has reduced the supply of lesser aged equipment. In addition, the lower productivity of territory managers due to the lower average tenure of the territory manager group should improve as they gain further experience and training. EquipmentOne and other online marketplaces contributed gross auction proceeds of $26.8 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $16.9 million in the same period of 2012. Gross auction proceeds is a non-GAAP financial measure. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, gross auction proceeds was $1.9 billion which is 7 percent lower than in the first half of 2012. EquipmentOne and other online marketplaces contributed gross auction proceeds of $45.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $16.9 million in the same period of 2012. The company’s auction revenue rate (“ARR”, or auction revenues as a percentage of gross auction proceeds) during the second quarter of 2013 was 11.96 percent, significantly higher than the 10.65 percent ARR achieved in the same period in 2012. The company’s ARR was 12.01 percent during the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to 11.10 percent in the same period in 2012. The higher ARR combined with lower GAP, resulted in nearly generally flat overall revenue growth over 2012. These increases in the ARR are consistent with the company’s strategic focus on managing the performance of “at risk” business. The company’s “at risk” business, which is comprised of guarantee and purchase contracts, represented 24 percent of gross auction proceeds in the first half of 2013 as compared to 33 percent in the same period of 2012. Online Bidding Statistics Ritchie Bros. sold more than $720 million of equipment, trucks and other assets to online buyers during the first half of 2013, representing 38 percent of GAP. Internet bidders continued to comprise over 50 percent of the total bidder registrations at Ritchie Bros. industrial auctions in the second quarter of 2013. Web Site Statistics The Ritchie Bros. Web site (rbauction.com), which is a gateway to its online bidding system and showcases upcoming auctions and equipment to be sold, attracted approximately 3.5 million unique visitors in the first half of 2013, a 35 percent increase compared to the same period in 2012. Upcoming Auctions There are currently 76 unreserved auctions on the 2013 Ritchie Bros. auction calendar at rbauction.com, including auctions in North America, Central America, Europe and Australia.

Inspection Reports IronPlanet improved its equipment inspection reports with the release of a new iPad app for its field inspectors. The app improves the quality of these reports by allowing inspectors to complete reports in the field using an iPad app that provides step-by-step instructions for gathering key data based on the type of equipment being inspected. “Since our online buyers don’t have physical contact with the equipment they’re bidding on, they rely on the data and images in our guaranteed inspection reports,” said Randy Berry, senior vice president of operations and services, IronPlanet. “Our IronClad Assurance guarantees the accuracy of these reports, and we want buyers to have access to the most detailed reports possible. This app improves the quality of our inspection reports while also reducing complexity for our field workers.” IronPlanet’s app offers numerous benefits, including: • Better data through standardization: The app enhances the integrity of the information in the inspection reports through a standardized process. Field workers choose Randy Berry from 120 different checkIronPlanet lists based on the type of equipment being inspected. The app then walks the inspector through each step and requests pictures to supplement ratings and text. The app provides an alert if an inspector has missed any necessary information, which eliminates incomplete reports and the need for return trips. • Improved service: The app improves service and creates a faster sales cycle because inspection data and images are being reported together electronically. Since additional data entry is not required, items and their inspection reports can be listed for IronPlanet buyers more quickly. • Better media for IronPlanet’s marketplace: Since buyers rely on photos when bidding on equipment, it’s important for images to be high quality. The app allows inspectors to take better quality pictures using the iPad camera. The checklists ensure inspectors have images of every aspect of the equipment. Recently, IronPlanet’s app was featured at a series of technology seminars organized by Apple Canada in Montreal, Toronto and Calgary. The seminars highlighted the importance of mobile strategy and showcased exemplary business apps. For more information, visit www.ironplanet.com.

Crews set 36 in. (91.4 cm) Florida I-beams on NB ramp B bridge.
provide a direct interchange between 21st Street and MLK Parkway. The new interchange will include five bridges, six ramps, six retained earth walls, six ponds, and three signalized intersections. In addition, JEA water and sewer services will be upgraded. “Traffic control restrictions require the new SR 115 mainline to be constructed in three phases,” said Douglas Cox, assistant project manager of Archer Western Contractors. “This is required in order to maintain two lanes of traffic in each direction. All bridge substructures are built with spread footing foundations on retained earth walls. There are no pre-cast concrete piles. This was done to reduce noise impact to the surrounding neighborhoods.” The new interchange will reportedly allow for easier access to Jacksonville Port Authority facilities, and will improve safety along the parkway. Material quantities include 27,000 cu. yds. (20,642 cu m) of ready mix concrete, 350,000 cu. yds. (267,594.2 cu m) of embankment, and 4,965 linear ft. (1,513.3 m) of pre-stressed Florida I-beams for the new bridges. “The new Jaxport Railroad Terminal bridges claim the longest 78-inch pre-stressed Florida I-beams in the state,” said Cox. Archer Western is self-performing most of the contract, according to Cox. Subcontractors include Atlantic Coast Asphalt for all the asphalt paving; the Haskell Company for the JEA utility scope; Safety Contractors for drilled shafts, signage, and guardrail; and Hinson for lighting and signalization.
“Archer Western uses a wide variety of equipment and boasts one of the largest equipment fleets in the industry,” Cox said. “Examples of major equipment used include Kobelco CK2500, American 9299, Grove GMK7550 cranes; Cat 336, Cat 329, John Deere 350 excavators; John Deere 650, 550 and 450 dozers; and Volvo L90G loaders.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Residential Building, Specialty Trade Contractors Add 6,300 Jobs UNEMPLOYMENT from page 1
was the lowest July rate since 2008, Simonson noted. Construction employment in July totaled 5.79 million, seasonally adjusted, up by 166,000 or 3.0 percent from July 2012 but down by 6,000 from the revised June level. Although both residential and nonresidential contractors have added workers in the past year, employment growth in July occurred only on the residential side. Residential building and specialty trade contractors added 6,300 employees in July and 92,100 (4.5 percent) over 12 months. Nonresidential building, specialty trade and heavy and civil engineering construction firms lost 11,500 workers in June but added 74,300 (2.1 percent) from a year earlier. Architectural and engineering services employment rose by 2.3 percent over the year, suggesting further modest gains in construction ahead. “The tilt in hiring toward residential construction and the recent flattening of overall industry employment fit with [the] report from the Census Bureau on construction spending through June,” Simonson
observed. “Those figures showed strong year-over-year growth in residential construction, little change in private nonresidential and worsening declines in public construction. These patterns, along with the slow growth in design industry employment, suggest that contractors will remain cautious about adding workers this year.” Association officials said that declines in public construction activity, in particular, were contributing to the recent pause in construction hiring. They urged elected officials in Washington to set aside the kind of partisan bickering that has caused vital infrastructure investment bills to stall in both the House and the Senate. “After months of promising growth, construction employment has flattened and is at risk of backsliding,” said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association’s chief executive officer. “Washington leaders should help get construction hiring back on track by passing key infrastructure funding measures, not sacrifice good jobs in the name of partisan point scoring.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)
