Major work on the Interstate 10 bridge spanning the Calcasieu River in Louisiana will begin after Thanksgiving, when pins on 48 girders will be replaced. The pin-replacement work is complicated because Topcor Services LLC, the general contractor for the project, will be removing 4-in. (10.2 cm) pins, enlarging the hole and inserting 4.5-in. (11.4 cm) pins, said Patrick Bernier, a division manager overseeing the project for the Baton Rouge-based company. The intent is to make the bridge sturdier and safer. “The new pins will provide a better load transfer,” he said. This portion of the bridge repair project is slated to be completed by Dec. 22. The work is part of a larger, $5.7 million repair and maintenance project of the Calcasieu River bridge connecting Lake Charles and Westlake in southwest Louisiana. The work is a Louisiana Department of Transportation & Development (La. DOTD) project. The overall project began in August and should be completed anywhere from February to April. The 60-year-old bridge will be spot cleaned and painted, anchor bolts and handrails will be repaired, road surface joints will be installed, resealed and damaged rivets will be replaced and missing dueling pistols that adorn the handrail will be replaced. see BRIDGE page 56

Patrick Bernier, a Topcor Services division manager who is overseeing the Calcasieu River bridge project, said Lake Charles, La., locals call the span the Pistol Bridge because it has 5,000 pairs of dueling pistols adorning its handrail.
Construction Employment Rises Construction employment rose in half the states and decreased in half in October and during the past year, closely matching the stable national employment picture, according to an analysis by the Associated General Contractors of America of Labor Department data. The even split between gains and losses reflects the accelerating improvement in apartment and private nonresidential construction, offset by a declining public market and stalled single-family sector. “Construction employment gains are likely to
remain spotty for months to come,” said Ken Simonson, the association’s chief economist. “Local factors, rather than regional or industry trends, seem to dictate whether a state has rising or falling construction employment in a given month.” North Dakota ranked first among 24 states and the District of Columbia that recorded construction employment gains from October 2010 to October 2011. The state added 19 percent (4,100 jobs). Oklahoma ranked second (8.1 persee EMPLOYMENT page 69
Cowin, ASC Reach Agreement on Volvo Distribution On Nov. 16 Cowin Equipment Company purchased the distribution rights for Volvo Construction Equipment in the state of Alabama from ASC Construction Equipment USA Inc. The Alabama territory also includes the Florida panhandle and coastal Mississippi
regions. The realignment of territories suits both companies’ strategic ambitions and has had limited impact on jobs, other than the transfer of affected ASC employees to Cowin. According to Brad Stimmel, president of ASC Construction
Equipment USA Inc., “It is a transaction that will allow us to continue our growth in the U.S. as well as to assist Volvo with enhancing its expansion of quality dealers in North America. Because of their long history in the territory and additional locations, I believe
Cowin Equipment Company is equipped to expand customer service in the Alabama territory at a faster pace than ASC could have in the short term. As part of the Volvo family, anytime ASC can help strengthen the Volvo dealer net see COWIN page 50

There was a huge turnout for the delivery of Cat machines from Blanchard Machinery and barbecue lunch on a picture perfect South Carolina day.
Blanchard, S.C. County Celebrate Decade of Partnership Orangeburg County, located in the Midlands of South Carolina, is a fairly rural county with a population of 92,501. The 1,104 sq. mi. of road in the county is maintained by 45 employees of the Orangeburg County Public Works Department. Considering the amount of road these employees have to cover, their need for reliable equipment is evident. A decade ago, members of the Orangeburg County Public Works Department partnered with Blanchard Machinery Company on a five-year machine lease agreement. This program was so successful that Orangeburg County has opted for two additional leases since 2001. With each lease agreement, at the end of the five year term, Blanchard buys back the leased machines and also gives the county the equity earned on the machines (based on current market value) so that they may in turn transfer that to a new lease. On Oct. 26, Blanchard Machinery delivered 35 new Caterpillar machines to Orangeburg County under their latest lease agreement. “Orangeburg County is able to lease the machines, knowing they will get the equity at the end of the lease and turn that over to a new lease. At the same time, Blanchard is doing the service, including preventive maintenance, oil changes and warranty work on each of the leased machines,” said Jim Johnston, Blanchard Machinery’s heavy equipment territory manager. “Before we set up the agreement in 2001, the repair costs on their fleet of machines was horrific. Under the agreement, the lease cost on the new
The key players who make this five-year lease agreement a success are (L-R) Butch Looper, assistant public works director, Orangeburg County; Joel Reynolds, sales manager Blanchard Machinery; Jim Johnston, territory manager, Blanchard Machinery; Don Wise, Ag sales representative Blanchard Machinery; Willie Reeves, assistant supervisor-vehicle maintenance, Orangeburg County; Dexter Curry, mechanic, Orangeburg County; Sinkler Boone, construction coordinator, Orangeburg County; Harry Hurley, used equipment manager, Blanchard Machinery; Phil Denny, vice president-sales, Blanchard Machinery; Earl Whalen, deputy administrator, Orangeburg County.
machines was relatively the same as what they were paying in repair costs, so the county was able to do this without raising taxes or millage.” Butch Looper, assistant public services director, Orangeburg County, agrees. “The best part of this deal has been the availability of equipment that is up and running. Before we started with our lease program we ran a mixture of different types of equip-
ment. The down time killed us. Since we started this lease program, we don’t experience excessive down time like we have in the past. “Having reliable motorgraders that are up and running, puts us in a better position to minimize the time it takes to cycle through the approximately 870 miles of unpaved roads that we maintain.” Looper continued, Earl Whalen, deputy administrator of the

Division of Public Services, Orangeburg County, added, “The partnership with Blanchard has given us the ability to construct rather than just maintain our roads. Within the past 10 years, we’ve actually improved nearly 120 miles of roads to hard surface in the county. With a county that has about a thousand miles of roads in its maintenance system, every mile we can improve see BLANCHARD page 60

Valuable Door Prizes Highlight JCB of Alabama’s Open House
A
s part of a series of JCB co-sponsored dealer open houses, JCB of Alabama’s Leeds, Ala., location was the place to be on Nov.15. The event, organized as a thank you to customers for their support over the past five years, offered an opportunity for guests to familiarize themselves with JCB’s new generation skid steer loader as well as with JCB backhoe loaders and telehandlers. Plenty of good barbecue food, door prizes and a backhoe rodeo kept everyone happy despite some rainy weather. The competition in the backhoe rodeo event was tough as contestants vied for the top prize of a pair of prime tickets to an Alabama/Auburn football game, courtesy of JCB’s sponsorship of the SEC Championship Game. Finishing with a scorching time of one minute one second, Whitney Woodard of Economy Septic Tank, Anniston, Ala., took first place in the competition. The 2nd place winner was Ronnie Asherbranner of A-1 Backhoe & Hauling, Falkville, Ala.,who earned a $50 Bass Pro Shops gift certificate and 3rd place went to Andy Woodard, also of Economy Septic Tank, who netted a $25 gift certificate to Bass Pro Shops. Attendees who got lucky in the door prize drawings also won Auburn/Alabama tickets as well as numerous other prizes and were registered for SEC Championship weekend tickets.

Small Towns Turn to ‘Road Diets’ to Slow Busy Traffic By Jeannie Nuss ASSOCIATED PRESS
HARRISON, Ark. (AP) It looks like any other road-improvement project: orange barrels, repaving equipment and men in fluorescent vests. But a closer look reveals something curious. Instead of making the street wider to accommodate more cars, the crew reduces it from four lanes to two in a project called a “road diet.” The goal is to rein in aggressive drivers and make shopping areas friendlier to pedestrians. The idea seems counterintuitive for traffic-choked towns, but it’s catching on. In Harrison, a small city in northwest Arkansas, officials also hope it drums up more business along Main Street. Mayor Jeff Crockett wants drivers “to slow down, stop, shop, take your time getting through.” Some people say the plan seems to be working, citing an increase in foot traffic at stores. Others worry that the new configuration will have the opposite effect: If traffic backs up too much, people will
flee Main Street for other routes. “We’re afraid of people avoiding this area,” said Kristi Myers, who runs a tire and battery shop with her husband along the newly paved street. “If someone doesn’t want to come down this road, less traffic means less business for us.” Road diets — and doubts about them — are not entirely new. A decade ago in University Place, Wash., city officials faced opposition when they eliminated some traffic lanes. “The idea that you can take lanes away seems to some to be insanity,” said Steve Sugg, city manager in the community about 40 mi. southwest of Seattle. Yet in University Place and scores of other communities that have taken similar measures, motorists are often pleasantly surprised. Commutes don’t take much longer, and more drivers follow the speed limit, largely because they have no more passing lanes. In Harrison, the road was narrowed to two driving lanes, with a turn lane in the middle. But business owners such as
Ernest Raney, who runs a pawn shop with his wife along Main Street, question whether it will achieve anything for businesses. “They call it a road diet, which means they’re going to cut back on traffic,” Raney said. “But I can’t imagine any businessman wanting less traffic in front of his business.” The pace of life has always been slow in this city of 13,000. People honk their horns to say hello, not to criticize someone’s driving. Sales clerks and supermarket baggers know customers by name. Traffic here hardly qualifies as gridlock compared with major metropolitan areas. More often than not, tourists headed north to Branson, Mo., or south to kayak on the Buffalo River bypass the city’s downtown. And for visitors who venture onto the city’s Main Street, there’s not much to stop for. City officials want the road diet to change that. “Our hope is that it will spur more business development and growth,” said Terry Cook, who runs the visitors bureau. Road diets have served as eco-
nomic-development tools in other communities, including Chandler, Ariz., where people working at office complexes used to climb behind the wheel if they wanted to cross the street for lunch. Business has shot up since the suburb outside Phoenix completed a road diet last fall. Sales tax receipts are up, and more than a dozen new companies opened downtown, according to Teri Killgore, the downtown redevelopment manager. Harrison completed its road diet only a few weeks ago, so it’s too soon to know whether the new system will pay off. So far, foot traffic at Lana Trublood’s flower shop has more than doubled now that drivers can turn into her store more easily. Some customers told her they had wanted to stop by in the past but didn’t want to risk opening their car doors into fast-moving traffic. Down the street, at the pawn shop, Raney told a different story. “I haven’t heard anybody say they spotted this place because they were going slower,” he said with a laugh.
In fact, he and his wife, Marie, say they haven’t heard much positive feedback at all, except from customers who comment that the road is now smoother. That would have happened anyway. The state resurfaced more than 3 mi. of the street this year, including the 1.3 mi. where the city got rid of a lane. The project cost $1.1 million — the same price without the road diet, since workers simply paint lines in different spots, according to the state highway and transportation department. Much remains unchanged. Cars still zip by stores and screech to a halt at stoplights. The speed limit is the same. Still, Dan Burden, who pushes road diets and other transportation ideas to make communities more walkable, said the road diet fits nicely with Harrison’s goal of gleaning more revenue from its businesses. “There are a lot of small, conservative towns ... that say, ‘We’re not hippies but we want to make money,”’ he said.
Miss.’s Highway 9 Reconstruction: More Than Just Toyota By Paul Swindol MISSISSIPPI BUSINESS JOURNAL
JACKSON, Miss. (AP) At first glance, the Mississippi Highway 9 reconstruction under way in Northeast Mississippi is simply a road improvement project supporting the new Toyota automobile plant at Blue Springs. The $90-million four-laning/improvement project was in the works before Toyota ever committed to building its plant in Mississippi. The project is expected to not only serve Toyota, but also serve other industries in the area, and, just as important, enhance public safety. In addition, some of the fast-track preconstruction components of the project represent firsts for the state, and could be incorporated into other road-building projects in the future. “This project predates Toyota,” said Randy Kelley, who heads the Three Rivers Planning and Development District and played a role in recruiting Toyota to Blue Springs. “The work has been the focus of MDOT for years now.” MDOT listed the 10-mi. (16 km) stretch of the two-lane between Pontotoc and Sherman in its Vision 21 plan back in 2002
as an immediate priority. The roadway between Mississippi Highways 6 and 178 was already overburdened. The twisting, undulating highway was a traffic and safety nightmare. With traffic counts projected to increase according to MDOT research, a new, four-lane highway was needed. “It followed every hill and hollow, that’s for sure,” Kelley said. “You could leave Pontotoc, drive for 30 minutes, and still not be in Sherman, a trip of maybe 14 miles.” Highway 9 came under renewed focus when Toyota announced in February 2007 its selection of Blue Springs as the site of its newest automobile plant. With that, the state cranked up the project. MDOT announced in 2008 that it had chosen its preferred route for the four-laning project. Everything seemed a “go.” Then the economy tanked. Not only did this affect transportation funding, it put the construction of the Toyota plant, originally set to start production in late 2009 or early 2010, in limbo. Toyota announced in December 2008 that it was indefinitely postponing the proposed opening of the plant. Then, in June 2010 Toyota contacted the state and said the plant was back on, with a proposed opening of this fall. Suddenly, the Highway 9 project needed
to get done, and quickly. MDOT contacted the engineering firm Neel-Schaffer Inc., which MDOT chose as its pre-construction agent on the project. The largest Mississippi-based engineering firm, Neel-Schaffer, charged with managing the final design (roadway and bridge) as well as right of way (maps and deeds, appraisal, acquisitions/relocations, closing attorney and property management) and utilities relocation, said it could wrap up all of the preconstruction work in 12 months. Robert Walker, senior vice president at Neel-Schaffer, said his firm put approximately 20 staffers on the project, but the work required a larger team effort and, importantly, fast-track design-build components. For example, the state put in “early bird” incentives for property owners. If owners agreed to sell early, the state would offer a bonus. The state also set up special escrow accounts for the landowners. This sped payments to the owners, allowing them to relocate more quickly. The design process also was altered. Plans were only 60 percent complete when produced. This cut the time needed for the plans to be totally completed while giving contractors enough information on the proposed
project to allow for bidding and to begin moving utilities. Engineers said the new stretch of Highway 9 is designed to be much safer for the traveling public compared to the old roadway. Bill Jamieson, MDOT district engineer, said to his knowledge the expedited right of way and partial-plan elements of the project were firsts in the State of Mississippi. Northern Transportation Commissioner Mike Tagert said these new fast-track components might not work for all future projects, but the Highway 9 process proves in his mind that they can not only speed up projects, but also save money. The general contractor on the project is Eutaw Construction of Aberdeen, which won the bid last May. Work started on the highway in July. MDOT gave the project 17 months for completion. Jamieson said the project was about 50 percent completed and well ahead of schedule. In a statement, Eutaw president Thomas Elmore said the project includes “clearing and grubbing 650 acres, moving seven million cubic yards of dirt, construction of 11 bridges, laying 15,000 linear feet of pipe and paving 170,000 tons of asphalt.”

ASCE Releases U.S. Economy, Family Budgets Report The nation’s deteriorating surface transportation infrastructure will cost the American economy more than 876,000 jobs, and suppress the growth of the country’s gross domestic product by $897 billion by 2020, according to a new report released by the American Society of Civil Engineers. The report, conducted by the Economic Development Research Group of Boston, showed that in 2010, deficiencies in America’s roads, bridges, and transit systems cost American households and businesses roughly $130 billion, including approximately $97 billion in vehicle operating costs, $32 billion in delays in travel time, $1.2 billion in safety costs, and $590 million in environmental costs. If investments in surface transportation infrastructure are not made soon, those costs are expected to grow exponentially. Within 10 years, U.S. businesses would pay an added $430 billion in transportation costs, household incomes would fall by more than $7,000, and U.S. exports will fall by $28 billion per year, the report estimates. “Clearly, failing to invest in our roads, bridges and transit systems has a dramatic negative impact on America’s economy,” said Kathy J. Caldwell, president of ASCE. “The link between a nation’s infrastructure and its economic competitiveness has always been understood. But today, for the
first time, we have data showing how much failing to invest in our surface transportation system can negatively impact job growth and family budgets. This report is a wake-up call for policymakers because it shows that investing in infrastructure contributes to creating jobs, while failing to do so hurts main street America.” American Businesses and Workers Will Suffer The report shows that failing infrastructure will drive the cost of doing business up by adding $430 billion to transportation costs in the next decade. It will cost firms more to ship goods, and the raw materials they buy will cost more due to increased transportation costs. Productivity across the business sector also will tumble. Those increased costs will cause businesses to underperform by $240 billion over the next decade, which will drive the prices of goods up. As a result, U.S. exports will fall by $28 billion, including 79 of 93 tradable commodities. Ten sectors of the U.S. economy account for more than half of this unprecedented loss in export value — among them key technology sectors like machinery, medical devices, communications equipment, which produces much of this country’s innovations. America also would lose jobs in highvalue sectors as business income goes
down. Almost 877,000 jobs would be lost by 2020, primarily in the high-value, professional, business and medical sectors which are vital to America’s knowledgebased service economy, the report said. Ultimately, Americans will get paid less. While the economy would lose jobs, those who are able to find work will find their paychecks cut. “The cost to businesses will reduce the productivity and competitiveness of American firms relative to global competitors significantly. By 2020, American families will lose more than $7,000 because of the ripple effects that will occur throughout the economy,” said Steven Landau of the EDR Group. “Business will have to divert increasing portions of earned income to pay for transportation delays and vehicle repairs, draining money that would otherwise be invested in innovation and expansion.” Families Will Have a Lower Standard of Living A lack of investment in transportation infrastructure would inflict a double whammy on American families who would see their household incomes fall by $60 a month by 2020, while having to spend $30 per month more for goods. The total cost to families would exact about $10,600 per family between now and 2020, equal to
$1,600 per year on household budgets. Modest Investment Needed The report estimates that in order to bring the nation’s surface transportation infrastructure up to tolerable levels, policymakers would need to invest approximately $1.7 trillion between now and 2020 in the nation’s highways and transit systems. The United States is currently on track to spend a portion of that — $877 billion — during the same timeframe. The infrastructure funding gap equals $846 billion over 9 years or $94 billion per year. Small investments in infrastructure, equal to about 60 percent of what Americans spend on fast food each year, would: • Protect 1.1 million jobs • Save Americans nearly two billion hours in travel time each year and • Deliver an average of $1,060 to each family, and • Protect $2,600 in GDP for every man, woman and child in the United States The report, the first of four scheduled by the society, examined the country’s surface transportation infrastructure. Future reports will examine the state of the nation’s infrastructure as it relates to water and, wastewater delivery and treatment; energy transmission; and airports and marine ports.

Former NFL Players, Home Builders Aid Homeless Family A Decatur family struggling in the down economy will get to celebrate the holidays in a newly refreshed home due to a group of former professional football players and members of the local home building community. On Nov. 18 members of the Atlanta NFL Players Association former players chapter, HomeAid Atlanta and the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association teamed up for a HomeAid Care Day to repair and rejuvenate a home for Decatur Cooperative Ministry’s Family House transitional program, which helps homeless Decatur and DeKalb families get back on their feet and rebuild their lives. “Every family deserves to have a safe, comfortable home to celebrate the holidays in, whether it is a temporary sanctuary or a permanent home to call their own,” said Dextor Clinkscale, vice president of the Atlanta NFLPA former players’ chapter. “We are so thankful for this opportunity to give back to the community that gave us so much support during our playing careers.” Former Atlanta Falcons Dewey McClain (1976-80), William Andrews (1979-86), and Major Everett (1987), joined Clinkscale (Dallas Cowboys, 1980-86) and former NFL players Ken Woodard, Ken Parker, Fred Banks, Bob Pickens, LaMar Campbell, Jim Nemeth and Kendall Newson to volunteer on the project. “HomeAid Atlanta was proud to partner with the Greater Atlanta HBA and the Atlanta NFLPA former players chapter for this wonderful day of service to benefit Decatur Cooperative Ministry and the families they serve,” said Dan O’Dwyer, president of HomeAid Atlanta. “It was heartwarming to see people from different organizations coming together and pooling their resources for the common purpose of giving back and helping those in need in our community.” More than 20 volunteers spent the day cleaning and painting the home’s interior, power washing the exterior siding and clearing debris from the gutters, removing overgrown plants and pruning shrubbery, and doing various repair tasks to help prepare the home for a
More than 20 former NFL players and members of the home building community volunteered to help the Decatur Cooperative Ministry refresh a home for temporarily homeless families as part of HomeAid Care Day and the Touchdown for Homes program.
happy, healthy and joyous holiday season. “Through the HomeAid Care Day program, a mom and children working hard to get back on their feet came home to newly painted walls, a freshly raked yard and more. Decatur Cooperative Ministry could not finish so many improvements in such a short period of time without the support of dedicated volunteers,” said Beth Vann-Turnbull, executive director of Decatur Cooperative Ministry. “We are very grateful to the Atlanta NFLPA former players chapter, Greater Atlanta HBA and HomeAid Atlanta, not only for all their hard work but also for the generous and light-hearted spirit in which they did it.” The 1,600 sq. ft. home is just one of nine homes used to temporarily house homeless Decatur and DeKalb County families as part of Decatur Cooperative Ministry’s Family House program, which provides assistance to approximately 14 families each year. “We were grateful for the opportunity to team up with HomeAid Atlanta and members of the Atlanta NFLPA former players chapter to help a family in our
community this holiday season,” said Mike Smith, president of the Greater Atlanta HBA. “As members of the home building industry, we feel we have an obligation to help those who need housing, and this project was a great way for us to do just that.” The HomeAid Care Day project was part of Touchdown for Homes, a nationwide charitable outreach program of the National Association of Home Builders and the NFLPA that is bringing together local home builders’ associations and former NFL players to strengthen communities by building or renovating homes for children or families in need and veterans. About the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association The Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association (HBA) is a 1,000-member, not-for-profit trade association affiliated with the Home Builders Association of Georgia and the National Association of Home Builders.

Coble Trench Safety was the 43rd ranked company in 2008, moving to 37th in 2009 and the 16th ranked company in 2010.
“The recognition is a testament to the team of employees working at all 11 CTS branch locations,” Coble continued. “We have a remarkable culture of cohesion and support amongst the 11 branch locations that helps us to provide a superior customer experience to our clients. Our customers know that if they have a water main break after hours or during the week and the repair work requires shoring that we’re just a phone call away from getting the equipment out to that job that day. That level of service really flows from our employees and their commitment to helping build this company as well as satisfying the customer.” CTS added its 11th branch location in Knoxville, Tenn., earlier this year and has plans to continue to expand its footprint. The company has plans to add two to three branch locations in 2012, however, for strategic reasons, Coble decline to comment upon the specific markets. About Coble Trench Safety Coble Trench Safety began operations in October 2002 and is dedicated to providing the construction industry with the most com-
plete line of trench safety equipment, as well as OSHA-compliant training classes.

About Tom Coble Equipment rental industry veteran Tom Coble was the previous owner of Coble Cranes and Equipment/Coble Rents in Greensboro, N.C., with branch locations in Charlotte, Winston-Salem and Raleigh, N.C. The company was sold to a publicly traded company in July 1999. Tom Coble began his career in equipment rental while working for the Rev. Jerry Falwell serving as his execu-
grants, for the March of Dimes Central Florida Chapter. Hubbard donated the use of a wheel loader, two excavators, a dump truck, water trucks and electric generators in preparing the eight-acre event site. Crews from Hubbard also set up a stage, a mobile office and a 260-ft.long tent at the site that served as hospitality headquarters for teams raising $1,500 or more. The project required a few weeks of site preparation and another week to restore the site following the event. As a monthly winner of the Case Community Challenge, Hubbard Construction will receive a $1,000 parts and service gift card to use at its preferred Case dealer. The company also qualifies as a finalist for the Case
Community Challenge grand prize — one year’s free use of a Case N Series loader/backhoe. In addition, Case will make a $1,000 cash donation to the March of Dimes. “Hubbard Construction is happy to participate in the annual March of Dimes Mudd Volleyball Challenge,” said Ray Birko, equipment manager. “We not only provided equipment and services to prepare and restore the event site, we also sponsored four volleyball teams in the tournament. It’s a great event for a great cause.” Heidi Richmond, community director of the March of Dimes Central Florida Chapter, said, “This is one of our biggest events of the year, and we couldn’t have done it without Hubbard’s generous help.”

Participants in the March of Dimes 19th Annual Mudd Volleyball Tournament in Orlando, Fla., enjoy the event in courts prepared by Hubbard Construction. For its contribution of equipment and services to the event, Hubbard was named a monthly winner of the Case Community Challenge, honoring contractors for community service projects.
Contractor Builds Volleyball Courts for March of Dimes Case Construction Equipment announced Hubbard Construction as the most recent monthly winner of the Case Community Challenge. This program recognizes construction contractors who support their local communities with significant community service projects. Hubbard Construction, Winter Park, Fla., received the award for donating labor, materials and the use of equipment in helping build 28 “mud volleyball” courts for the 19th Annual Mudd Volleyball Challenge for the March of Dimes. This year’s event was held in Orlando on Aug. 20 and attracted the participation of 164 teams from all over the state of Florida. The tournament raised approximately $165,000, including matching
tive pilot. Coble spent the idle time waiting for his next flight by looking up crane companies in airport phone books and brokering used equipment sales. By the late 1970s, Tom Coble had found the field promising enough to devote his full attention to launching his own business. Coble Cranes & Equipment expanded its scope in the early 80s, becoming a full-line distributor for Case and renting on a limited basis. Coble initially opened his operation as a typical equipment dealer, however, faced with the recession of the early 1990s, he began looking at diversifying the company. Research was conducted and after reviewing the information, Tom Coble decided to convert his company’s focus to equipment rentals. Thus the future of a rental industry veteran was forged.

Case to Announce Overall Winner Nominations for the Case Community Challenge closed on Oct. 31, 2011. In November, a panel of industry leaders will select a winner from the semi-finalists, who will receive one year’s free use of a new Case N Series loader/backhoe. In addition, Case will donate $5,000 to a charitable organization of the winner’s choice.
Hubbard excavated 28 “mudd volleyball” courts and used the excavated material to build a birm on which the company erected a 260-ft.-long tent that served as hospitality headquarters for teams contributing at least $1,500 to the March of Dimes event.

Genesis Attachments Grapple Reduces Maintenance, Increases Durability Genesis Attachments announced major enhancements to its orange-peel type scrap grapples designed to reduce maintenance, improve durability, lower operating costs and enhance safety. Available in four models ranging in capacity from .75 to 1.5 cu. yds. (.6 to 1.3 cu m), Dan Raihala, Genesis design engineer, said customers can expect more productivity from this market-leading design. “We looked hard at our original design and listened to customer feedback to identify areas in which improvements could be made,” he said. “The first was in the area of maintenance. The new design features composite bearings with dust seals at all pivot points, leaving only the rotation bearing to grease. The heavy-duty cylinder
guarding system, designed to protect the cylinders and internal components, is easily removed for maintenance.” Other changes Raihala cited include reverse-mounted cylinders to protect rods from damage, large-bore hydraulic cylinders to maximize clamping force, and long-life, abrasion-resistant steel tips that are easily replaced with a simple perimeter weld. “We also recognized that our customers want a choice in tines, and Genesis now offers the widest variety,” he said. “We provide flat bottom or pointed tine shapes and augment them with three spade types — half, narrow- and wide-width — to meet specific application needs.”
Additional GSG features include largediameter hardened steel pins with integrated shear-proof retainers, high-torque 360 degree continuous rotation for better material access and placement, and an overall footprint designed to easily fit inside trailers.

Doosan DA40 Articulated Dump Truck Is First in Family Doosan Infracore Construction Equipment has launched the new DA40 articulated dump truck (ADT), the first in a new family of Doosan ADTs offering increased engine power and torque, higher payloads, lower fuel consumption, enhanced operator comfort and faster travel speeds, according to the manufacturer. Incorporating more than 40 years of expertise in the ADT market, the new Doosan ADTs are optimized for extreme performance. The agile undercarriage, designed to ensure that all six wheels are in permanent contact with the ground, means that Doosan articulated dump trucks can operate on very rough and soft terrain on construction sites such as road projects and mass excavation hauling as well as in mining and quarrying applications. Power, Performance, Productivity and Fuel Efficiency Powered by a 6-cylinder interim Tier IV compliant diesel engine with a gross power output of 500 hp (373 kW) at 2,100 rpm, the new DA40 offers a 10-percent increase in engine power compared with the previous MT41 model. There is a 22-percent increase in gross torque to 1,750 lb. ft. at 1300 rpm. Contributing to the overall 8-percent reduction in fuel consumption is the new transmission offering 8 forward and 4 reverse speeds. The new transmission improves the transfer of power from the engine to the wheels for outstanding traction. To withstand the increased power, the driveline dimensions and cooling capacity of the truck have been increased. The DA40 combines â&#x20AC;&#x153;best-in-classâ&#x20AC;? fuel consumption with a higher top speed of 36 mph (58 kmh). The DA40 also has an increased body capacity of 31.9 cu. yds. (24 cu m), and the payload has been boosted to 44 tons (40 t) without tailgate, an increase of more than 15 percent over the payload of the MT41. Six-Wheel Traction, Outstanding Rough and Soft Terrain Capabilities The DA40 has permanent 6-wheel drive for equal power distribution while the free-swinging rear tandem bogie and the special articulation system offer enhanced driving performance in difficult terrain. The sloping body design enhances the stability of the truck due to its low center of gravity and allows fast and easy tipping, even in the most demanding conditions. The combination of the tandem bogie and the sloping rear frame results in added rough and soft terrain capabilities and avoids the need for aids such as traction control, according to the manufacturer. To handle the increased payload as well as provide a
smoother ride for the operator, the DA40 has a completely new hydro-gas front suspension. This independent front suspension allows for free movement on one side, without movement on the opposite side, providing maximum ground contact and shock absorption. The articulation hinge is positioned behind the turning ring to provide equal weight distribution even during maximum turning and ensures maximum contact between the front wheels and the ground for optimum traction. Like all Doosan ADTs, the DA40 features a powerful engine brake and hydraulic transmission retarder as standard. The wet brakes offer a long service life and sealed protection from the environment and, with oil-cooled multiple disc brakes on all the wheels, the safety of the operator is never compromised.
Operator Comfort and Convenience The DA40 has a completely new cab providing more space and improved visibility for the operator, lower noise levels and a fully automatic climate control system. For easier operation, Doosan has introduced new electronic systems and simplified fingertip controls with a digital display of all desired machine functions. The fully automatic 8 gear transmission and smooth Tiptronic gear-shifting (both automatic and manual gear functions are available) allow the operator to concentrate on working conditions. For routine maintenance and service, the cab can be tilted backward to provide easy access to components. Easier service access and longer service intervals result in lower operating costs. A fully automatic central greasing system and rear view camera are standard. For more information, visit www.doosanequipment.com.
Powered by a 6-cylinder interim Tier IV compliant diesel engine with a gross power output of 500 hp (373 kW) at 2,100 rpm, the new DA40 offers a 10-percent increase in engine power compared with the previous MT41 model.

Improper installation can lead to premature wire breakage.

Ensure all bolts are present.
How to Install Screen Media Correctly, on the First Try No matter what kind of screen media is being used, proper installation is crucial. Poorly installed screen media can slow down the operation and hurt the product quality, production and profit. Create material that meets specification, achieve longer screen media wear life and generate the tonnage the operation was designed to produce by installing the screen media right the first time. The two most common types of screen media are Flex-Mat-type and woven wire. Here are some installation tips for each: Flex-Mat-Type (Self-Cleaning) Prior to Installation: • Check for proper tensioning system and correct installation of tension bar • Ensure that crown bar is fully engaged in “U” channel rubber and is consistent in height • Ensure clamp rails are not worn thin, bent or deformed • Ensure clamp rails are the same Curved tension bar decreases screen media wear life. length as the screen media • In bolt-type tensioning systems: • Side-tension systems: Ensure there is a Check the rail design and height of bolt loose bolts on screen box or deck (fix if nec.750 in. (1.9 cm) space between the wall and holes; Check for missing bolts (replace if essary) During Installation: the outside of the hooks broken or missing) • Ensure clamp rails are not overlapping • Align polyurethane strips perfectly on all • Clean the rail and hook edge thoroughly crown bar supports, making sure they lie flat • Check for cracks, broken welds and multiple panels, but fit each panel
on the bars when tightened • If equipped with overlaps, place overlaps on top of preceding screen media starting at the discharge end • Stretch Flex-Mat-type screen media “tight as a drum” • Do not over-tighten when using an impact wrench on wire diameters less than .148 in. (.37 cm) • Check tension: the heavy end of a screwdriver or hammer should bounce easily on the screen media None of these tips mean anything if the screen box is faulty. Placing screen media in an inadequate screen box will almost certainly result in premature failure. Before installing screen media, make sure the unit passes inspection. Do Not Install: • If crown bar supports do not create a consistent crown curve • If crown bars are worn or bent • If screen media is too flat — lacking a proper crown curve • If screen media does not fit tight against all crown bar supports • If polyurethane strips do not line up perfectly on all crown bar supports • Check for use of “J” bolts (these indicate a problem with the crown which must be fixed) Do the String Test New crown bar rubber should be installed see TIPS page 44

Eriez Plans Expansions in U.S., Canada, China, India Eriez, an authority in advanced technology for magnetic, vibratory and inspection applications, will expand its operations in the United States, Canada, China and India to address the growing global demand for Eriez products. “We are proud and excited to report that Eriez is not only growing at home, but also across the globe,” said Tim Shuttleworth, Eriez president and CEO. In the United States, Eriez has purchased a 114,000 sq. ft. building that is approximately 15 mi. from its Asbury Road World Headquarters facility in Erie, Pa. The new building, located at 1901 Wager Road in Erie, will house the company’s 5-Star Service Center and handle manufacturing of Eriez’ largest and hottest selling equipment including recycling systems, column flotation cells and hydroflow fluid filtration and recycling equipment. Eriez completed the purchase of the Wager Road building in late June. According to Shuttleworth, Eriez plans to finish some renovations to the space and move operations in by the end of 2011. Eriez Minerals Flotation Group (EMFG),
headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, will be moving from its current location to a larger building nearby. “This brand new building is being custom built to suit EMFG’s needs,” said Mike Mankosa, Eriez’ vice president — operations. “Our new facility will allow us to build our larger proprietary equipment inhouse, rather than utilizing sub-contractors.” EMFG equipment offerings include flotation columns for minerals and liquids, StackCell high efficiency mechanical flotation cells, Hydrofloat coarse particle flotation cells, gas injection systems and mineral processing test equipment. Construction of the new building in Vancouver currently is under way. “We hope to move into the space by early 2012,” said Mankosa. Eriez-China will add another manufacturing operation in Tianjin to supplement its current Qinhuangdao plant. “Our new facility in Tianjin gives us an additional 10,905 cubic meters including 1,650 cubic meters of office accommodation,” said Andy Lewis, vice president —
Peterson’s 4800E chain flail debarker for removing bark for clean pulp and paper chips has had a major redesign and has many new features. The new 4800F features a 350hp (265 kW) Cat C9 Tier IV engine, upper and lower flail drives (similar to Peterson’s 5000H whole tree chipper), direct drive lower in-feed and outfeed rolls, floating direct drive upper feed rolls, a 5-ft. (1.5 m) wide bark pusher, and Peterson’s IQAN control system. The machine also features a dedicated 100 gal. (567 L) hydraulic oil tank, and a 200 gal. (757 L) fuel tank to allow the 4800F to run an entire shift without fill-up. With a retractable gooseneck, the highway legal 4800F is easily moved between jobs and has an estimated curb weight of 48,100 lbs. (21,817 kg). The four fixed landing gear (with floating pads) allow the 4800F’s operating height to be adjusted easily and stable once it’s on the job. The operator can operate the machine with a wireless remote, which also can pair with the Peterson 5900 disc chipper. Peterson specializes in developing delivery and processing equipment that turns low-grade organic materials into high value products. Since 1982, Peterson has manufactured equipment for customers in more than 25 countries. For more information, visit www.petersoncorp.com.
international. “Our new building in Tianjin will be ideal for building our Hydroflow fluid filtration equipment, suspended magnets, recycling products as well as some of our other large pieces of equipment,” said Lewis. Eriez-India is moving to a new factory facility located on Vanagaram-Ambattur Road, near Ambattur industrial estate in Chennai, which is one of the largest industrial estates in Asia. “This facility has two factory buildings measuring 25,600 square feet with an array of sophisticated cranes as well as welding and rolling machines and more,” Lewis said. The new space will enable Eriez-India to manufacture Eriez products to the highest quality standards, while offering faster delivery. “In addition to the factory buildings, this facility also has an office lab building measuring 8,700 square feet. This lab has the facility to test both dry and wet type samples for our customers using high quality pilot testing equipment manufactured by Eriez,” Lewis said.
According to Lewis, both these buildings are under construction now and Eriez-India is planning to shift to this facility in September 2011. “While other companies are struggling, Eriez is thriving,” said Shuttleworth. “We believe that innovation, coupled with great customer service, is vital to maintaining our success. Therefore, it’s more important than ever for us to continue to introduce new technologies that help our customers maintain efficiency and increase their profits, while offering the world-class support our customers deserve.” Eriez is recognized as world authority in advanced technology for separation, vibratory and inspection applications. The company’s separation, metal detection, x-ray, materials feeding, screening, conveying and controlling equipment have application in the process, metalworking, packaging, recycling, mining, aggregate and textile industries.

Radial Travel Tracks Option Avoiding Premature Screen Delivers Radial Stockpiling Media Failure — Here’s How TIPS from page 37
Consisting of two 24-in. (61 cm) steel tracks on each side of the conveyor, Superior’s radial travel tracks attach directly to the FD axle radial fold-down arms, and are easy to remove for road portability.
Superior Industries has a new conveyor mobility option — radial travel tracks. When applied with the TeleStacker conveyor, the new option allows high-capacity radial stockpiling in applications, such as low pressure soils, sand or wet clay, where maximum flotation and traction is required. Radial travel tracks are highly suitable and cost-effective mobility options for gold and copper heap leach operations particularly. When combined with the new track-mounted mobile pivot base, producers realize an increase in mobility with the combination of free-ranging onsite and transfer point mobility, as well as radial travel capability — all while reducing the need for haul trucks and loaders, and additional labor and material handling, according to the manufacturer. Engineered for easy, simple bolt-on installation, the radial travel tracks option can be
retrofitted onto existing conveyors in the equipment fleet; and can provide the versatility for site to site operation no matter what the soil conditions. Consisting of two 24-in. (61 cm) steel tracks on each side of the conveyor, Superior’s radial travel tracks attach directly to the FD axle radial fold-down arms, and are easy to remove for road portability. The system is designed to reuse existing planetary drives and is equipped with hydraulic hoses and fitting connections. Superior Industries also offers non-powered travel tracks for use on short stackers, jump or grasshopper conveyors. The tracks can be bolted on right over the standard tire hub when flotation and traction is needed. For more information, visit www.superior-ind.com.
with each new set of FlexMat-type screen media. To see if you have installed it correctly, perform the string test. First, run a string from sideplate to sideplate over the crown bars and pull the string tight. Next, check for gaps between the string and the crown bars to see if the screen media will sit on them properly. If there are gaps, then the height of the crown bars must be corrected or breakage will occur. Woven Wire Before You Install: • Look for significant damage to crown bars and screen decks • Inspect the crown bar rubber for damage and wear (replace if necessary) • Ensure the crown bar rubber is the same type and height and covers all of the crown rails • Make sure side clamp rails are not worn thin, bent or have curves or “dimples” where the clamp rail bolts come through • Ensure the side clamp rails equal the length of the screen media or they will cause uneven tensioning • Check crown bar height by doing the string test • Remove all material Properly tensioned Flex-Mat-type screen media. build-up from the hook ledge on the pan side of the screen box to the hook is even on both sides • Tension your screen media by tightenand/or the crown bar rubber ing the bolts intermittently from both sides For Proper Installation: • Once installed, make sure all screen • Make sure the screen media has the correct outside and inside hook width for the media is seated properly on all crown bar tops and the side clamp rails match the deck • Ensure that the ends of the screen length of the screen media Conduct Habitual Inspections media panels fit together tightly to prevent Once you have properly installed the the passing of oversize material • Make sure the lengths of all screen screen media, conduct daily inspections media “tail ends” don’t exceed more than before startup and after shutdown.

Access to Data Spurs Today’s Construction Market Success By Jeff Winke SPECIAL TO CEG
In the early 1960s, and then in the mid1980s, there was a TV show that portrayed a future with incredible technology that saved time, made life easy and gave the characters access to incredible amounts of information. Those hallmarks of the Jetsons’ incredible future are playing out today (without the nasty Cosmo Spacely, owner of Spacely Sprockets, barking at us). Technology innovations are here and available to the construction market. Think about it, at this moment, a construction company owner with a laptop computer is sitting in an American office building. At his fingertips, he has real-time access to machine and site information. Oil pressure, idle time, fuel usage, maintenance records ... even an in-cab view of the job site, are all available. It could be a motor grader in South Africa, dozers in China, Peru, and Russia, or an excavator working two blocks away. With GNSS positioning technology and sophisticated software utilized in a remote asset management system, such as Topcon Tierra — a web-based communication tool — a contractor can literally keep tabs on machines, sites and personnel. It is not too dramatic to say that remote asset management systems can change the construction contractor’s business model. Remote asset management or telematics — the sending and receiving of information via telecommunications — has increased and dispersed the notion of control. Machine operators have greater control over the performance of their machine and the assigned task. Site superintendents have greater control over the project with the data they receive in the job trailer or on their laptop sitting on the seat of their pick-up. And the home-office manager, no matter where the home office is located on the globe, has information about all the job sites and how things are progressing. “The art and science of telematics is changing, for the better, the way construction companies do business — from bidding through job completion,” said Mark Bittner, senior vice president of the Telematics Business Unit, Topcon Positioning Systems. “Our Tierra system takes information available from any piece of machinery — regardless of age, make or model, analog or digital — and sets up two-way communications, transmitting data about the tracking or operation of the vehicle, plus behavioral aspects of the machines.” How Does It Work? The Topcon Tierra remote asset management system has three components: 1. Its hardware is the communications device installed on the machine.
2. The service plan enables the features needed and configures how often the unit communicates. The system can be configured to the user’s specifications. 3. TierraWeb is the internet-based user interface, which is where the user configures alerts and generates reports. Topcon Positioning Systems joined with Divitech, a telematics solution provider based in Turin, Italy, to create the joint venture company, Tierra S.p.A. Divitech is an experienced software development and management company with a global footprint providing analysis, design, realization and installation of fleet management systems, as well as value-added web based solutions. The joint venture created the Tierra system, which is at the heart of Topcon’s telematic offering for the construction market. A job site management system is designed to empower construction contractors, so that informed decisions are based on current information. “Tierra eliminates slow, inaccurate, and labor-intensive data gathering,” Bittner said. “It sifts through all that data and provides immediate alerts and useful reports, which allows managers to focus on important items that are timely, with minimal effort and maximum positive results.” Some of the specific areas that the Tierra job site management system are designed to address include improvements in security, maintenance, utilization and job costing.

search for the machines they’ve been sent out to service. Not only will the service technician benefit from the job site management system’s ability to locate equipment, wherever it is, but contractors are expected to have a better sense of when equipment is not being used, so it can be redeployed to a more appropriate job site. “With Topcon Tierra, users are able to remotely pull up a report in about 30 seconds that can show, for instance, all of the backhoes with less than three hours run time in the past week. Having that level of detail can help contractors control equipment rental expenses since they have real time information on machine usage,” said Bittner.
Improve Job Costing Most contractors gather machine run time data for costing out jobs. The data-gathering process can be expensive, labor intensive, subject to clerical errors, and even more likely, guessing at numbers when in a timecrunch situation. With a telematics system, such as Tierra, this type of information can be provided daily and reports are available with a few simple keystrokes. In addition, with integration into contractor software, the cost of human data entry can be minimized. Some users even configure geofences so that a machine sends an alert when it arrives on the job site. This can trigger the internal machine billing to begin for that job site. Construction contractors are always searching for that competiSecurity Improved With respect to security, the sys- Remote access management enables contractors to tive edge.

Two Types of Suspension Available on Terex’s Compact Track Loaders Terex compact track loader undercarriages feature two types of suspension: single level or dual level. On single level suspended undercarriages, the entire undercarriage is suspended from the chassis of the machine by torsion axles. These torsion axles are independent, so there are four suspension points connecting the chassis to the undercarriage. This creates a smooth ride, and takes away much of the vibration and shock associated with running over rocks, curbs, and other rough terrain, according to the manufacturer. On dual level suspended undercarriages the same suspension system is used as on the single level, but a second level is added. This second level allows the bogie wheels of the machine to flex as well, creating enhanced ride comfort and traction. All Terex compact track loaders use undercarriage technology with suspension that maximizes traction and flotation while giving operators the most comfortable ride possible. Terex Posi-Track undercarriage technology relies on more than 25 years of technology that provides performance and durability by using modern track technology and components used and proven in much larger equipment, such as metal faced seals. Terex offers three different track options for its undercarriages. The standard track on all Terex CTLs is the general purpose track. The general purpose track features a moderate tread pattern that the company recommends for use in Terex compact track loader undercarriages feature two types of the widest range of applications, from wet, suspension: single level or dual level. soft ground to working on soft, delicate landscaping, to operations on pavement or asphalt.

Replacing Pins, Pistols Gives 60-Year-Old Bridge New Life BRIDGE from page 1
The bridge will remain in use during the work, but four lanes of traffic will be reduced to two lanes at times. During the pin replacement phase, Topcor Services will close one lane of traffic in each direction, place shoring I-beams over each girder and tie them to the structure as it is worked on. The 4-in. pins will be removed, and the hole will be enlarged using custom-built drills. A new 4.5-in. pin will be inserted after the drill frame is removed. The final step will be to insert new .875in. (2.2 cm), A325 structural bolts in the pin plate connections, Bernier said. “We will install I beams over the girders in one lane of the road surface so traffic can be maintained,” Bernier said. “Once the shoring beams are installed we can take apart the current structural connections.” MH Precision in St. Louis, he said, designed and built two custom-made drills for the hole-widening work. “The drills mount directly to the bolt pattern, and accurately place the cutting head dead center of the existing four-inch holes,” he said. Two-thirds of the long, cantilever bridge — it is about 1.25 mi. (2 km) in length — is above land. The other third spans the slowmoving waters of the Calcasieu. It is a 135ft. (41 m) drop from the bridge to the water. Workers scraping rust often rely on personnel lifts and suspended man-baskets, which hang from the bridge. Work is easier in the areas where the bridge is above land — personnel lifts are placed below a repair area. But this work has been complicated because some of these areas are wetlands, so extra measures have been taken to comply with environmental regulations, said Kristi Sanford, a consultant and project engineer at ECM, a Metering, La.-based company that provides construction management services. The Louisiana Department of Transportation & Development hired ECM to serve as project monitor. Managers sometimes have difficulty finding spots in the wetlands where they can situate their equipment, Sanford said. Topcor brought in two of its own personnel lifts, a Genie 60 and Genie 80, Bernier said. It also has rented about eight personnel lifts from RSC Equipment Rental in Louisiana. Suspended baskets were rented from Max Access in Houston. Air compressors and rivet busters were among the tools also needed for the job. “It’s just regular, old construction equipment,” Bernier said. “It’s a neat little job, but
Topcor Services is replacing pins on 48 girders while repairing the I-10 bridge over the Calcasieu River in southwest Louisiana. Four-in. (10.2 cm) pins will be replaced by 4.5-in. (11.4 cm) pins. Two custom drills made by MH Precision in St. Louis will be used to enlarge holes so that they will fit the bigger pins. The drills mount directly to the bolt pattern and place the cutting head dead center of existing 4-in. holes.
there’s not a lot of specialty equipment with the exception of the drills.” Barges are used while working on the bridge above the water. A platform has been built below the part of the bridge that is above water, allowing workers to scrape rust and paint without fear of falling in, Sanford said. Eighteen wheelers and other traffic roar overhead as painters and workers go about their tasks. Bernier said, “It’s not a quiet bridge, that’s for sure.” The bridge will be painted nickel, its color when it was built six decades ago. “I don’t think that it’s ever been fully blasted and painted,” Bernier said. Construction of the bridge began in 1948. It opened in September 1951, but work was not completed until the next year. The bridge was part of U.S. 90 and only later was incorporated into the interstate system when I-10 opened. It was named the World War II Memorial Bridge. But there had been earlier discussions about naming it after Jean Laffite, the legendary pirate who fought with distinction
Two Topcor Services employees work on the 60-year-old bridge spanning the Calcasieu River. It will be spot cleaned and painted, anchor bolts and handrails will be repaired, road surface joints will be installed and resealed, damaged rivets will be replaced and missing dueling pistols that adorn the handrail will be replaced.
for the United States during the War of 1812. He and his band of privateers distinguished themselves during the Battle of New Orleans. Legend has it that some of Laffite’s treasure is buried in the Lake Charles area. To honor Laffite and his band of privateers, the bridge’s handrails were decorated with 5,000 pairs of crossed dueling pistols, Sanford said. Many locals refer to the span as “the Pistol Bridge,” Bernier said. More than 100 pistols will be replaced or relocated from damaged handrail to new handrail sections, and 37 pistols are missing from other sections of handrail. Some pistols were knocked off the handrail during accidents while others were stolen, Bernier said. “Some had been cut off by somebody,” he said. “The pistols are really cool. Everybody wants a set.” Topcor Services sent a set of original pistols to Bama Foundry in Montgomery, Ala. The foundry created a mold and is casting new pistols that will be identical to the originals, and these will replace missing ones, Bernier said. Sanford said the project appears like it
will be completed in April. But Steve Jiles, who is overseeing the project as District No. 7 administrator for the La. DOTD, said the pace of work will be picking up, and crews are working seven days a week. He said he anticipates that the project will be finished by Feb. 12. Long-term plans of the La. DOTD call for the bridge to be replaced by a new bridge in the coming years, Jiles said. Sanford said Louisiana could build this new bridge within five to 10 years. “The bridge is safe, but it is too narrow according to modern highway standards,” Bernier said. “And it is too steep on its approaches.” What will happen to the bridge if a new bridge is built is unknown, he said.

Lease Agreement Saves Money for Orangeburg County BLANCHARD from page 8
for our citizens is quite advantageous. “Using Capital Projects Sales Tax funds specifically identified for road improvements and, most recently, State Gas Tax C-Funds combined with the acquisition of reliable paving equipment and the expertise of in-house labor force has kept the County within and mostly under budget on our projected seven-year road improvement plans. The equity of the machines at lease end can go towards the next lease and/or back to the county as revenue,” Whalen stated. Every county has to deal with acquiring and maintaining heavy equipment to some degree. Based on the success of this partnership, both Orangeburg County and Blanchard Machinery have been approached by officials from multiple counties for more information on the Machine Lease Program. “The ability of Caterpillar to maintain the value of their equipment over a period of years is
proven. It was a large financial leap back in 2001 and I know the cost is the biggest hurdle for local governments, but many Public Works Directors and equipment operators envy our position now. I’m definitely a strong advocate of this lease agreement plan,” Whalen said. Additionally, the South Carolina Association of Counties features the competitive J. Mitchell Graham Memorial award that they offer every year recognizing counJim Hallman (C), technical services, Blanchard Machinery, fields questions about the Cat 420E IT backhoe loaders delivered to Orangeburg County.

ties for innovative and unique projects that are a benefit to the community technologically or financially, which, Whalen mentioned, Orangeburg County won for the first time ever in 2003 thanks in part to their relationship with Blanchard and Caterpillar. Another key ingredient to this partnership is communication. The open line of communication
between Orangeburg County and Blanchard also has been beneficial to Caterpillar. Using the county operator experience on the machine, Orangeburg County is always providing feedback to Blanchard. If something comes up that isn’t just an anomaly, Blanchard will share that with Cat, which in turn helps them in making modifications to the machines. “From the leadership of our County Council and County Administrator in comprehending the advantages of this lease plan combined with a group of dedicated equipment operators that appreciate being outfitted with the latest and best heavy equipment technology we are progressively preparing our community for the long road ahead. Our equipment operators are awesome, working hard every day to make our roads better and safer,” Whelan concluded.

Deere 4Q Profit Up 46 Percent on Strong Sales By Josh Funk AP BUSINESS WRITER
Deere & Co. said strong sales of its farm equipment helped boost its fourth-quarter profit by 46 percent and said it expects robust demand will lead to further growth next year. The quarterly results beat Wall Street expectations, and Deere shares rose more than 3 percent in afternoon trading. The Moline, Ill., company said Nov. 23 that equipment sales were up 20 percent in the quarter. That included 14 percent sales growth in the United States and Canada, and 31 percent growth in the rest of the world outside those two countries. The sales growth helped Deere generate net income of $670 million, or $1.62 per share, for the three months ended Oct. 31, up from $457 million, or $1.07 per share, a year ago. Revenue grew 20 percent to $8.6 billion from $7.2 billion a year ago. Both sales volume and equipment prices increased. Analysts surveyed by FactSet
expected earnings of $1.43 per share on revenue of $7.91 billion. Deere said equipment sales will increase about 15 percent in fiscal 2012 and profit will grow to $3.2 billion from $2.8 billion in fiscal 2011. “We are proud of the company’s performance in 2011 and look forward to building on these gains in 2012 and beyond,” Chairman and CEO Samuel Allen said in a statement. “We have great confidence in the company’s future and our role in helping feed, clothe and shelter the world’s growing population.” Deere’s report offers an indication of how well farmers worldwide are doing because the company is the world’s largest maker of agricultural equipment. Deere said it expects farmers to have another good year in 2012 because the demand for agricultural commodities remains strong. Deere said it expects net U.S. farm income will decline slightly from 2011’s projected $115.7 billion to roughly $109.2 billion in 2012. “I think overall they are betting on a strong farm economy,” Edward Jones analyst Jeff Windau said.
Rising steel and administrative costs may be a bit of a concern for investors, Windau said, but Deere’s recent results have been great. “It’s an outstanding quarter and a great forecast,” Windau said. Deere has been rolling out new products throughout 2011 to comply with new federal pollution regulations. As part of that, Deere has increased prices for most of its equipment, but its R&D costs have also risen considerably. Credit Suisse analyst Jamie Cook said in a research note that’s it’s hard to criticize Deere’s fourth-quarter performance, and the company’s profit outlook for 2012 is more optimistic than expected. During the fourth quarter, about 41 percent of Deere’s net sales came from outside the United States and Canada. To help meet the growing demand, Deere announced plans in 2011 to build new manufacturing plants in Brazil, China and India to better serve customers in those countries as well as expansion projects at several of its existing plants. Deere’s total employment has
grown about 10 percent over the past year. Just over half of Deere’s 61,000 employees are based in the United States. Spokesman Ken Golden said the number of U.S. jobs is up about 9 percent in 2011 while jobs outside America have grown by about 11 percent. Jefferies & Co. analyst Stephen Volkmann told clients that Deere’s guidance for fiscal 2012 is more optimistic overall. He said the outlook includes a $500 million increase in raw material costs and a 10 percent increase in research and development expenses. For all of Deere’s fiscal 2011, the company reported net income of $2.8 billion, or $6.63 per share. That’s 50 percent higher than the previous year’s $1.87 billion, or $4.35 per share. In addition to agricultural equipment, Deere makes construction and forestry equipment, such as backhoes, excavators, riding mowers and leaf blowers. But construction and forestry sales represent a small portion of Deere’s business compared to its agricultural equipment.

The Gehl RS5-19 is designed with a compact frame and tight turning radius of 11 ft. (3.35 m), allowing it to maneuver in low buildings and confined job sites.
Gehl’s RS5-19 telescopic handler has had an engine upgrade. The EPA certified Interim Tier IV Yanmar 68 hp (50.7 kW) naturally-aspirated engine provides the power needed for demanding job sites, while providing reduced fuel consumption, according to the manufacturer. The upgraded Interim Tier IV engine meets the latest emissions standards. The Gehl RS5-19 is designed with a compact frame and tight turning radius of 11 ft. (3.35 m), allowing it to maneuver in low buildings and confined job sites. The RS5-19 is a low-profile machine with an overall height of 6 ft. 4 in. (1.93 m), for operating in buildings, under parking garages and in confined areas. The boom reaches to a height of 19 ft. 1 in. (5.8 m) and features the same welded box-section design that is on the Gehl Dynalift telescopic handlers. The RS5-19 telescopic handler was designed to meet the growing needs of contractors, builders and rental firms for a 5,500 lb. (2,495 kg) lift capacity machine. All the features and benefits of the Gehl RS Series and DL Series telescopic handlers are incorporated in the RS5-19 telescopic handler. Internal wet disc service brakes are standard equipment, for better stopping capability and longer life, along with a SAHR (spring-applied, hydraulic-release) parking brake, which is automatically applied when the engine is shut off, or manually engaged by pressing a rocker switch. This design eliminates the cable stretch and adjustments associated with many other telescopic han-
dlers. The view from the ROPS/FOPS canopy is a full 360 degrees. An enclosed cab is optional with front and top windows, a door and a heater/defroster for use in areas where operators need protection from the weather. Optional air-conditioning also is available for further climate control. Two direct mechanical joystick controls for boom and fork tilt functions are standard. They are easy to reach and smooth to operate, optimizing operator precision and productivity. A deluxe suspension seat is optional. A work light package can be added to further increase the productivity of this machine. Engine accessibility is made simple with a large, hinged hood on the side of the machine. The hood lifts fully out of the way, allowing plenty of room to access maintenance points, including the battery and oil fill. Underneath the unit Gehl has added a bolted belly pan to protect all engine and hydraulic components. A hinged access door provides easy access to the engine oil drain. Hydraulic flow is up to 22 gpm (83 Lpm). Optional auxiliary lines are available to power a variety of available attachments, including, truss booms, jib booms, buckets and multiple types of carriages and forks. The Dynattach quick-attach system allows quick attachment changes. The hydraulic hoses are routed inside the boom protecting them from job site hazards. For more information, call 800/628-0491 or visit www.gehl.com.

Keith Stewart, Okada America Sales Rep, Dies Born in Scotland on June 14, 1943, Mr. Stewart immigrated to Hammond, N.Y., with his family at the age of seven. He graduated from Canton ATI (now SUNY Canton College) in 1962 and was actively involved with the Boy Scouts and the local 4-H Club while growing up in New York. Mr. Stewart also was active in high school sports and in his senior year was named to All Star Teams in both varsity basketball and baseball. He is survived by his wife, Gail Cordts Stewart and his three children, Sandra Stewart of Venice, Calif., Philip Stewart of Venice, and Geordie Stewart of Carrolton, Ga. Mr. Stewart was an associate of Okada America. His son, Geordie, is currently the district sales representative of Southeastern United States of Okada America. According to Okada Vice President of Sales Tony Neikirk, “Keith represented Okada America for 12 years and was consistently a sales leader in each of those years. We are a close group at Okada America and losing Keith is just like losing a family member. He was a true professional and he will be missed.” Donations can be made to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, 6931 Arlington Road, 2nd Floor, Bethesda, Md. 20814, www.cff.org.

Local Factors Play Large Role EMPLOYMENT from page 1
cent, 5,500 jobs), followed by D.C. (4.8 percent, 500 jobs). Texas added the largest number of jobs (17,500, 3.1 percent), closely followed by California (17,100, 3.1 percent). Among the 25 states that shed construction jobs over the past 12 months, Georgia experienced the steepest decline in percentage and total (minus 9.5 percent, minus 13,800 jobs). New Mexico was secondworst in percentage terms (minus 9.2 percent, minus 4,100 jobs), followed by Wisconsin (minus 8.6 percent, minus 8,100 jobs). Florida had the second-highest number of job losses (minus 11,600, minus 3.4 percent). Arkansas had no change in construction employment over the year. Seasonally adjusted construction employment climbed from September to October in 25 states plus D.C., led in percentage gains by Delaware (5.5 percent, 1,000 jobs), Vermont (3.8 percent, 500 jobs) and Utah (also 3.8 percent, 2,500 jobs). New York added the largest number of construction jobs for the month (3,400 jobs, 1.1 percent), followed by Virginia (2,800 jobs, 1.6 percent) and Utah. Of the 23 states that lost construction jobs from September to October, Nevada had the largest one-month percentage drop (minus 4.6 percent, minus 2,600 jobs), with
Alabama next (minus 3.2 percent, minus 2,700 jobs), followed by Michigan (minus 3.0 percent, minus 3,900 jobs). Texas lost the largest number of construction jobs for the month (minus 12,800 jobs, minus 2.1 percent), followed by Florida (minus 4,800 jobs, minus 1.5 percent) and Michigan. South Dakota and Wyoming had no change in monthly construction employment, while Pennsylvania lost a statistically insignificant 100 jobs (less than 0.1 percent). Association officials said the failure of the congressional “super committee” charged with reaching a deal to cut the U.S. deficit has the potential to undermine construction employment. They noted that the mandatory federal spending reductions that are now scheduled to go in place in the absence of a deal would likely cut needed investments in vital infrastructure projects across the country. “Allowing water, transportation and energy networks to deteriorate will hurt construction employment and force taxpayers to spend more later, to fix broken infrastructure,” said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association’s chief executive officer. “Neglecting the fundamental systems needed to support our economy and quality of life is no way to balance the budget or boost employment.”

JCB Adds to Its Next Generation Skid Steers, CTL Lineup JCB has added the 225 wheeled skid steer and the 225T compact track loader to its line of New Generation skid steer and compact track loaders. The nine current New Generation machines are the first to be designed, engineered and manufactured at JCB’s North American headquarters in Savannah, Ga. John Patterson, deputy chairman of JCB, explained the importance of building upon the success of the New Generation product line. “Developing and producing this line in Savannah has allowed us to understand the unique needs of our North American customers — customers who are responsible for 60 percent of the total demand for skid steer and compact track loaders,” Patterson said. “However, we’re not only manufacturing machines that appeal to the North American market. By including features that every operator can appreciate, we’ve been able to produce machines with worldwide appeal.” While the seven models introduced last November — the 260, 280, 300 and 330 wheeled skid steers and 260T, 300T, 320T compact track loaders — were vertical lift machines, the new 225 and 225T feature radial lift. This means that maximum reach is achieved in the middle of the machine’s reach cycle rather than at its highest point. Both the 225 and 225T have rated operating capacities (ROC) of 2,250 lbs. (1,020 kg). These two new models complete the large platform segment of JCB’s New Generation range. After JCB has introduced all 18 new machines, the company will offer a complete range of wheeled and tracked machines, both radial and vertical lift, ranging from 1,300 to 3,500 lbs. Both the 225 and 225T have rated operating capacities of 2,250 lbs. (1,020 kg). These two new models complete the large platform segment of JCB’s New Generation range. (589 to 1,587 kg). The 225 and 225T feature all of the same features introduced with the seven other New Generation skid steer and track loader models: design resulting in 38 percent fewer parts, JCB’s New Versatility and Performance. • Tilting cab with increased service access Generation machines are easier to service, according to the Switching to any of the machine’s 30 attachment families • Multifunction joysticks manufacturer. is a snap due to a standard universal mechanical hitch or an • Hydraulic quick hitch Technicians will appreciate the improved access to the optional hydraulic quick hitch.
