Finance Index for Oct. Reveals Volume of $7.7B

Construction crews are working to complete a major $300 million replacement facility for Baptist Memorial Hospital North Mississippi, which will serve Oxford, Lafayette County and the surrounding area. The new five-story structure will have 602,831 sq. ft. (56,004 sq m), including 217 beds with more comprehensive medical and surgical services. “With the growth our area has experienced in the last decade, building a newer, updated hospital to serve the community became an easy decision,” said Bill Henning, administrator and CEO of Baptist North Mississippi. “The new hospital is a replacement hospital with the same number of beds as the current hospital. However, the new building will afford us the space to add new services, the flexibility for future changes in patient care and provide the infrastructure for new

The Equipment Leasing and Finance Association’s (ELFA) Monthly Leasing and Finance Index (MLFI-25), which reports economic activity from 25 companies representing a cross section of the $1.046 trillion equipment finance sector, showed its overall new business volume for October was $7.7 billion, down 8 percent from new business volume in October 2014. Volume was down 8 percent from $8.4 billion in September. Year to date, cumulative new business volume increased 3 percent compared to 2014. Receivables over 30 days were 1.0 percent, down from 1.1 percent the previous month and down from 1.26 percent in the same period in 2014. Charge-offs were 0.27 percent, unchanged from the previous month. Credit approvals totaled 80.1 percent in October, down slightly from 80.5 percent in September. Total headcount for equipment finance companies was up 5 percent year over year. Separately, the Equipment Leasing & Finance Foundation’s Monthly Confidence Index (MCIEFI) for November is 60.2, an increase from the previous month’s index of 58.7. ELFA President and CEO William G. Sutton said, “Performance in the equipment finance market was mixed in October: new business volume weakened somewhat — both in terms of the month- and year-earlier periods — while portfolio quality remained

Huntsville Could Be Alabama’s Largest City by 2022 By Challen Stephens CEG CORRESPONDENT

Auction Section ..............98-105 Business Calendar................102 Advertisers Index ................106

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (AP) Huntsville could soon pass Birmingham to become the largest city in Alabama. “We believe we will be the biggest city in the state within a decade,” said Dennis

Madsen, long-range planner for the city of Huntsville. Right now, Huntsville is fourth. It’s the smallest of the four main cities in this state. But those cities have evolved in ways that find all four at nearly the same size. And demographers with Huntsville project the city slipping past Mobile in two years,

passing Montgomery in four years and growing larger than Birmingham by 2022. Birmingham is currently the largest city in Alabama with about 212,000 people. Huntsville is the smallest of the four at about 188,000. But Huntsville Mayor Tommy Battle was see HUNTSVILLE page 92

Hennings Construction Puts Its Customers First By Lori Tobias CEG CORRESPONDENT

University, earning a degree in engineering. His first year out of college, he worked for a soil testing company, then became a project manager for the general contractor where his father worked. But the call to start his own business was strong, and before long he had his first contract. “We did an animal shelter here in Yadkin County,” Hennings said. “We did the clearing and grading and a bit of storm drains. It was a $40,000 job, moving a couple thousand yards of dirt.” At first he wasn’t certain he’d made the right decision, but it didn’t take long for Hennings to know he was exactly where he was supposed to be.

When Darren Hennings’ crews head out on a job, he tells them, “I like our customers to see us like the calvary when they see us coming over the hill, and that’s how I want you to act, too.” That attention to customer service goes a long way in explaining why Hennings Construction, specializing in grading and site utilities from its East Bend, N.C., headquarters, not only survived the recent recession intact, but in the years between 2008 and 2011 doubled in size. The company’s only downturn was in 2009 when revenue fell a mere two percent. “We had a lot of good customers who were obviously good contractors so they had some work and in turn, they gave us work,” Hennings said. “We thrive on repeat business. We had good relationships and we like to think we are a kind of go-to contractor and were able to have enough work to keep things moving. It was just a The Hyundai R260LC-9A has about 1,500 lot of hard work and a lot of trouble free. hard work on the part of our “I really felt like I was on vacation when I employees.” was out there working, just something I Hennings knew from a always wanted to do.” young age that he wanted to Today, he has a staff of 55, including his operate his own business. brother, Britt, a partner who looks after the His father worked for a genoffice, and handles estimates, bidding and eral contractor and Hennings contracts, and his wife, Cathy, who manages got involved working with the firm during his high (L-R): Darren Hennings of Hennings Construction the payroll.

Today, his crews are hard at work clearing and grading pads for the 26-acre Hanestowne Village development in WinstonSalem, the former site of the Hanes textile manufacturer. It’s a brownfield site, with contaminated soil that must remain on site. Crews are using some of the soil to create building pads. “We actually built a mechanically stabilized earth wall,” Hennings said “It was 30 feet tall and 400 feet long. That’s where we put 75,000 yards of excess soil they needed to get rid of.

His fleet of equipment has grown from one piece to more than 50. “I started out with one piece,” Hennings said. “I just added machines as we needed them. I have 13 excavators, six track loaders, one rubber tire loader, three motor graders, rubber tire backhoes, skid loaders, trench rollers. It’s a lot to look after for sure.” He recently added new equipment from May Equipment. “I bought a motorgrader from them years ago in 2007,” Hennings said. “That was a Caterpillar grader. I recently bought a Terex off-road truck, and two new Hyundai excavators, a 260 last fall and a 160 this year. They gave us a real good price on them. I thought they were nice machines and with the price, they were a good value. We haven’t had any problems with them. They’ve been good to us. I also bought a Terex truck. We rented four of them on various jobs and rented this one for about a year. I just decided to go ahead and buy it. The May service crews have maintained the machines. I had couple of repairs on the truck, which has about 3,000 hours on it, and no repairs on the excavators. The 260 has 1,500 hours and the 160, less than a thousand. The service has been good.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG

The company specializes in the design, manufacture and use of high efficiency axial and mixed flow propeller water pumps worldwide for a variety of applications, including construction dewatering, bypass pumping, flood control, emergency pumping, storm drainage, irrigation, water transfer, mines, water diversion, water infrastructure security and open pit dewatering. Throughout the years, the company has grown organically, as well as through acquisitions. In 1983, the company purchased one of the oldest pump companies in Florida, Couch Pump, founded in 1917. In 1998, MWI purchased the assets of Sloan Pump Company, a pioneer in the development and use of hydraulically driven trash pumps for construction dewatering. In 1968, MWI also got into the pump rental business, with the invention of a hydraulically driven axial flow pump which could move larger volumes of water at lower cost than anything previously on the market. The company named it the Hydraflo. Today, MWI is one of the leaders in providing pump, dewatering and sewer by-pass solutions throughout Florida, according to the company. Over the years, the company has added multiple locations for the rental divi-

sion from Fort Myers to Jacksonville, along with rental distributors in multiple locations outside of Florida and representatives throughout the world. In 1989, MWI built a 26,000 sq. ft. (2,415 sq m) repair facility situated on 20 acres in Vero Beach, Fla. This facility repairs and services all makes of axial and mixed flow propeller pumps as well as any brand of dewatering equipment. The company still remains a family business — and all are engineers from the University of Florida. Dana Eller is the president of the company. Eller’s brother Daren is the vice president, and is a licensed professional engineer who heads up the company’s engineering department. His sister Danielle also is a PE with her masters in environmental engineering, and works parttime (when not home schooling her five children), and their father David serves as the company chairman. John Springer runs the entire rental and repair branch, which makes up a sizable portion of the company, and Marc Boudet is head of engineered product sales for the factory. “I think we added up the other day — with our top 15 leaders of the company, we had over 415 years of experience,” Eller said. “That’s not too bad. All of our upper management has been here almost 30 years.” On the construction dewatering side, the company builds off forecasts, so engine builds are locked in and are generally John Deere and Yanmar, although they can use any type of engine a customer requests. Most pumps from 4 to 12 in. (10 to 30 cm)

ARE ALL

Lift day came and went without incident. But what made this construction project a success was the larger ALL team. The outbounders who prepped the cranes before the job. The operators who checked equipment before every shift. The safety people and project managers who, for the good of the customer, help to keep the whole team moving in the same direction. And this team is part of a much bigger team, the ALL Family of Companies.

Liebherr Demos Iron at 2015 Sales Seminar, Open House

ore than 170 sales professionals, dealers, Liebherr representatives, customers and special guests gathered at the 2015 Sales Seminar and Open House held Nov. 2 to 6 at the Liebherr Construction Equipment Co. headquarters in Newport News, Va. Key presenters and trainers from Liebherr’s earthmoving and material handler factories located in Germany, Austria and France, as well as a dedicated support team from Liebherr in the United States, covered sales features and benefits of Liebherr’s equipment range sold and marketed in the United States. The sales seminar consisted of two full field-days where participants had the opportunity to operate and compare key features and benefits of Liebherr’s equipment. Four different demonstration stations were dedicated to feature wheel loaders, excavators, dozers and material handlers respectively. Additionally, a material handling module was held on the third day. International guests and dealers were invited to participate as part of the seminar. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Hannes Lichtmannegger, product manager of the Liebherr factory in Telfs, Austria, conducts a walk around on the new 6th generation PR 736 dozer. Ronald Ritter (L), Howard L Ritter & Sons Inc., Lewis, Del., and Jerry Tucker, Liebherr Equipment Source, go over the Liebherr 946. The machine features a new maintenance concept for reduced downtime and increased efficiency. Tim Kraut (L), president of American State Equipment in Milwaukee, Wis., and Peter Mayr, president of Liebherr Construction Equipment Company, stand in front of the Liebherr 542 wheel loader.

The Liebherr 566 wheel loader is well suited for the sand, gravel, crushed concrete and aggregate industries.

Gunther Hilzensauer, wheel loader trainer of the Liebherr factory in Bischofshofen, Austria, explains some of the Liebherr L566 wheel loader features. Dealers and sales professionals gather around the LH30 material handler for a walk-around.

(L-R): Mike Shillinglaw and Chris Calton, both of Liebherr Equipment Source, and Scott and Tom Sullivan, Sullivan Eastern Inc., Durham, N.C., stand with the Liebherr R946 excavator.

The modern design of the 724 affords an excellent view and the electronic Litronic control system means even the most precise grading can be carried out easily and safety. Because the transmission of force is optimized at all speed ranges, the 724 Litronic is particularly efficient.

Many lubricant manufacturers formulate their tractor hydraulic fluids using base oils, additives, and line flush — the remnants left in the pipelines after blending lubricants that may not be tractor hydraulic fluids. This formulation produces an inconsistent product that can cause oxidation. Fluid oxidation creates harmful deposits and sludge causing equipment failures and costly downtime for your operation.

are generally available with short deliveries. On the large engineered product side, bigger engines are generally used, such as Caterpillar, John Deere, Detroit Diesel, and Cummins. These engines drive pumps that can be as large as 12 ft. (3.6 m) in diameter and move more than 800,000 gpm. On the horizon, Eller mentioned a small rotary dewatering pump that MWI has been testing in the market for the last year and a half. “It has been received quite well, and we’re planning on rolling it out in larger scale,” he said. “It’s a little six-inch, and we’ve named it the ‘little sucker.’ It’s 12.5 hp, and uses very little fuel to accomplish big results. It’s a quiet unit — very small and compact — for very small dewatering jobs. Customers really seem to take a great interest in it, so we’re planning on starting to roll that out more. We’re also always looking at improving our construction dewatering equipment and pumps. With over 20 patents to our family name, there is always some exciting R&D going on at MWI, as we continue to explore ways to advance the field of moving

water in ways that provide tangible benefits to our customers. We love moving water. You can say it’s in our blood.” For more information, call 954/427-2206 or email springer@mwicorp.com.

How Contractors Can Make Social Media Work for Them By Jeff Winke CEG CORRESPONDENT

At first blush, the idea that a construction contractor should have a Facebook page may seem ridiculous. Isn’t Facebook the place for selfies, photos of drinking parties, vacation brags, photos of cute babies-puppies-kittens and everything else that has nothing to do with business and construction? That may have been true years ago, but Facebook has evolved and changed. As of the third quarter 2015, there are 1.55 billion monthly active users — making Facebook the most popular social network platform worldwide. There are now more than 40 million small business pages and 41 percent of U.S. small businesses use Facebook. And all those numbers are growing. Facebook is solidly here. Used smartly, Facebook can be a powerful sales, marketing and communication tool for the construction contractor. However, a Facebook page is NOT a substitute or replacement for a company Web site. The company Web site should explain and promote the company’s market expertise and experience that supports the contractor services offered. It can include company history, equipment lists, descriptions of current and past projects, profiles of key company management, and the contractor services provided. Quite simply, the company Web site is the go-to source for everything from learning about the company, what they do, how they can help, and why they may be the best choice to work with. And it’s the first place people turn to for looking up a phone number, email address, or the location of a company office or service center. A construction company Facebook page has a different, distinct role from the company Web site. It can serve as the social glue that connects employees, customers, and prospects to the company. The impression can be positive, human and professional. Think of the company Facebook page as being the evolutionary successor of the traditional printed-paper company newsletter. The printed newsletter, which was mailed and/or tucked into the paycheck envelope, and even the more current electronic or

emailed version, was created to acknowledge and celebrate achievements, accomplishments and significant events. It documented and chronicled everything of importance, becoming a cumulative history of the company and its employees and customers. A contractor Facebook page, like its predecessor newsletter, can make an employee feel appreciated by the company they work for and proud of the work being done. Customers will learn about the people they connect with and will feel better about the company they’ve hired. The personal can help solidify the business relationship.

Used smartly, Facebook can be a powerful sales, marketing and communication tool for the construction contractor.

In its analysis, San Francisco-based VerticalResponse, an online marketing tools firm, suggests an 80/20 rule for Facebook content being posted on a company page. Eighty percent of posts should be social and 20 percent can pertain to services, projects, and what the business can offer customers. Here are suggestions for social content that can be posted: • Employee milestones — marriages, births, graduations, retirements, promotions, and anniversary dates of employees (include the one-year anniversary of the new employee as well as the old timer’s 10, 15, 20-year anniversary). • Accomplishments — include any industry awards received, workshops and special training received (including vendor/supplier training sessions), and any regional or national trade shows that employees were sent to. If employees are being sent to big show, such as World of Concrete, name the employees going and the products, systems, see FACEBOOK page 30

Efficiency Production Appoints Southeast Regional Manager

Efficiency Production Inc., a manufacturer of trench shielding and shoring equipment, announced the selection of Billy Padgett as the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new southeast regional manager. Padgett is a veteran of more than 35 years in the trench safety and trench shoring industry. Efficiency will be employing Padgettâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vast experience as a market developer for the company in the southeast United States, as well as assisting Efficiencyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s existing dealers in the region. Padgettâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trench safety training credentials draw back to the very beginning of the federal standards for safe excavation and trench shoring practices. In 1990, Padgett was one of the original 12 trainers that NUCA certified to teach the first-in-the-nation â&#x20AC;&#x153;OSHA Outreachâ&#x20AC;? Trenching and Excavating Competent Person program. The core subject of these classes were the newly revised OSHA Subpart P â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Standards for Excavation & Trench Safety. This founding course served as the template for all trench safety training material in use today. Padgettâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience also includes the design and development of many specialty shoring systems and products.

Social Content Includes Community Involvement, Job Wins FACEBOOK from page 26

or services they are commissioned to check out and report back on. • Community involvement — go ahead and brag about the Boy Scout leader, the Little League coach, the autism support group volunteer and the one guy who faithfully donates a pint of blood each month to the local blood bank. • Share a tip — ask an employee to share three things they do to maintain a work/life balance. Describe their role in the company and their other commitments and how they are able to strike balance. • Feature an employee profile every week — pick a machine operator, a project supervisor, a site model developer, a bookkeeper, etc. Ask them each what their job entails; what excites them about their work; and what recent completed task or accomplishment they are proud of. • Ask an employee what motivates them to do well. If they can give an immediate answer, great. If they want a day or so to think about it, remind them that there is no right or expected answer. Start with an employee who is a deep thinker, so a strong example is established.

The company Web site should explain and promote the company’s market expertise and experience that supports the contractor services offered.

Here are suggestions for business content that can be posted: • Project wins — announce the winning of a new project contract, when it will start, and who will be on the team • Project milestones — if a phase of a project has been completed, there’s an opportunity to congratulate those involved and acknowledge any extra individual or work team effort — include photos of work being done and identifying everyone in the photo or relevant to the photo, even if not

pictured (e.g., “Jim Smith is compacting the roadway after Bill Thompson had fine graded it.”). • New equipment additions — it is a big deal if a new piece of equipment is added to the fleet and make sure to describe how the machine will enhance or expand capabilities. • New employees — announce each new hire by describing their background and what they will be doing. • Customer testimonials — if a customer is happy at the end of a project, ask them if

you can say so on Facebook. It helps if they can comment on the workflow, productivity and communication during the project, as well as the final results. • Work photos — post photos of employees working, whether they are operating a rough excavating machine, sitting at a desk monitoring progress with the company’s project management software system or inspecting and neatening up a utility trench. Each work photo provides an opportunity to brag about an employee while promoting a company service or capability. A construction contractor Facebook page can be easy to create and maintain with tremendous benefits. There are no fees from Facebook to launch or maintain a page. Almost every employee carries a smart phone with a camera these days. Encourage them to use it, even if they take a quick selfie on a job site. The “texture” of the pages should reflect the employees and represent the personal, human side of the business, which after all is the reason why customers and providers connect.

May Heavy Equipment Adds Tar Heel Equipment Inc. to Its Network May Heavy Equipment LLC announced the acquisition of Tar Heel Equipment Inc., headquartered in Raleigh, N.C. The transaction closed Oct. 19, and financial terms were not disclosed. Tar Heel will change its name to May Heavy Equipment effective immediately. All employees will be retained. May Heavy was already doing a significant amount of business in Raleigh and eastern North Carolina, but without a dealership and service center location and without local support personnel. The Tar Heel acquisition provides May Heavy with all of the above in addition to exclusive representation of the SANY excavator line in the territory. “The Tar Heel acquisition represents a key milestone in our ongoing efforts to become the premier heavy equipment rental and sales company in the Southeast” said Jacob May, May

Heavy president. “The greater Raleigh-area is already such an important and growing region for our business. The addition of the SANY excavator line and our dedicated and more efficient service capabilities in the area will meet customer demands and will allow us to grow market share aggressively” said CEO Kerry Vickar. Scott Woody, founder of Tar Heel Equipment, will stay on as May Heavy’s general manager North Carolina. “We are impressed with May Heavy’s reputation in the industry, its access to capital and its steadfast commitment to having the newest and best rental fleet in its geography. I firmly believe this transaction combines great capabilities at both of the companies.” Earlier this year, May Heavy Equipment announced that it will

move its center of operations from N.C. Highway 8 to a large, more visible property adjacent to I-85. The company is currently building a new 5,862-sq. ft. (544.5 sq m) office and rental center and 15,100-sq.-ft. service center on 49 acres not far from the Lexington Airport. In addition, May Heavy has announced that it has expanding presence in Charleston, S.C., having acquired a property adjacent to I-26. This highly visible location will provide coastal Carolina customers with rental, sales as well as parts, warranty and service for the lines that May Heavy represents For more information, visit www.mayequip.com.

Firm to Convert Landfill’s Methane Gas Into Electricity by Year’s End By David McGee Bristol Herald Courier

Bristol, Va. (aP) a Virginia firm expects to begin converting methane gas from the city’s landfill into electricity by year’s end. ingenco resources development, a richmond-based energy production firm, is building a $4.5 million facility that will use gas created by rotting landfill garbage to fuel a series of engines. in turn, the engines will create electricity that will be sold to the tennessee Valley authority. the work site was a beehive of activity as contractors installed electrical wiring, set up the first of the converted commercial truck engines and performed dozens of other tasks needed to get the facility operational in december. “right now the city pulls the gas from wells in the landfill and flares [burns] it. Most landfills burn it because it controls their smell and it keeps them in ePa compliance,” said tom Hecmanczuk, the company’s director of construction. “What we’re going to do is bring the gas into our plant and make energy.” ingenco has a contract to sell the electricity to tVa through a connection being extended to BVu’s east Bristol substation. the company employs this same technology at 12 of the 17 energy plants it operates in Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania and North Carolina, Hecmanczuk said, noting that “it’s not rocket science.” at its absolute peak, the plant is designed to produce 6 megawatts of power, which is roughly equivalent to the electricity needed to power about 6,000 homes. “We build modularly. We use six engines, which we call a six-pack, and that generates about 2 megawatts of electricity. in this case we are putting three six-packs in there so nominally we could create 6 megawatts,” Hecmanczuk said. “We can put another one in and, if they start generating a whole bunch of gas, we can expand the building and put more in. it’s an art more than a science and it’s hard to predict. “as we look at their gas curve, we think we will max out at 4.5 megawatts. You can power 1,000 to 1,200 homes with a megawatt. if they produce more gas we can get beyond that,” Hecmanczuk said. Plans are to produce about 2 megawatts initially and about 3 megawatts by the first quarter of 2016. and while the electricity is produced here, it will be sold to tVa, which will then resell it to local provider BVu. “People ask about if their bill will go down. BVu’s sole supplier is tVa, so the physical electrons will stay here in Bristol but the contract path is to tVa, and BVu will buy this power from tVa. We sell it wholesale and have nothing to do with the retail market,” Hecmanczuk said. BVu purchases about $28 million in power from tVa annually. “We are currently building a dedicated circuit from our east Bristol substation over to their facility,” BVu electrical engineer richard adkins said. “We got the construction agreement signed with them [ingenco] so that they would pay for all of the construction to get them a dedicated circuit to their site. if there is any problem with their facility, it won’t affect any of our customers.” this project has been in the works for about three years. “We did procurement several years ago and signed this contract in 2012,” tabitha Crowder, city manager said.

“ingenco had to get an air permit and tVa inter-connect agreement and those things take time.” tVa reported no negative findings after completing its environmental assessment of this project in May 2014. City leaders initially selected another firm that planned to clean up the landfill gas and sell it to natural gas provider atmos, but that deal was never completed. “With the original firm, the market fell out while we were negotiating the contract, they wanted more control over our well field than we wanted to give them and we went to the next highest respondent, which was ingenco,” Crowder said. as part of its agreement, ingenco agrees to pay the city a percentage of revenues it receives, based on the amount of gas it receives. “the city provides the methane and, in exchange, we get from 5 to 25 percent of the revenue. it’s based on our flow. on average we did about 1,200 cfm [cubic feet per minute] so in that ballpark, that is 15 to 17 percent of the revenue,” Crowder said. “they gave us some projections in 2012. at best, the first year we would get $350,000.” a recent presentation to the BVu board overestimated the city’s likely share, Hecmanczuk said. “the good thing for the city is any revenue we get is extra because presently we flare that gas off,” Crowder said. “this allows us to recoup some money and all we’re doing is provide the methane we’re already harvesting off the landfill.” the plant will employ four people and is expected to operate around the clock every day of the year. in addition to a computerized monitoring system inside the building, officials at the company headquarters in richmond will be able to monitor the production. Mark Campbell, the city’s environmental and safety compliance officer, said residents shouldn’t be concerned about any safety issues. “We monitor all around the [landfill] property boundary as required by the permit,” Campbell said. “We monitor weekly at all the wellheads at the surface of the landfill to make sure we don’t have any gas in any concentration that would cause any danger to human health or the environment and we will continue to do so.” about 90 percent of the landfill’s gas piping is underground. Power plant ventilation is designed to assure there is no concentration of methane gas, Hemcamczuk said. “We will change the air inside this building more than one time a minute. With that kind of ventilation we have done the calculation where you can cut the gas pipe with a sawzall [reciprocating saw] and you’re not going to get gas enough in here to make it explosive,” Hecmanczuk said. “landfill gas is only about 50 percent methane and it’s coming in at low pressure. We have never had even the slightest problem with methane. We’ve got oil in here, we’ve electric in here. it’s an industrial place and i think those are more of a hazard than methane.” the engines are all inside the building and mufflers will be installed to reduce noise levels. Both sides expect the project to have a long lifespan. Gas is piped from the current quarry landfill, which has 31 years remaining, and the two former landfills and Campbell estimates the gas supply totals more than 100 years.

China’s construction machinery market has been in decline for several consecutive years, but that is set to change. LiuGong, a global leader in manufacturing a full line of extreme duty equipment, has repositioned its forces, refined its strategy and is ready for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead within new and existing markets, according to the company. At this year’s annual meeting for innovative enterprises organized by the China Machinery Industry Federation, LiuGong received the event’s top prize, the Innovation Pioneer of Equipment Manufacturing Industry Award. As the company who produced China’s first modernized wheel loader in 1966, LiuGong has made a fresh start to its technical innovation. The company now has 15 product lines, including the upgraded Hseries wheel loader, E-series excavator and E-series roller. This June, LiuGong opened its Global Research and Development Centre in Liuzhou, China. This initiative will boost LiuGong’s research and development (R&D) to a level comparable with leading global construction equipment manufacturers. With the world-class hardware in this new R&D center, a modern testing platform, modern manufacturing plant, as well as more than 1,000 engineers across the world, LiuGong has entered a new era of R&D to further develop its machines, according to the company. The company’s commitment to technical innovation and investment in research and development has paid off. On June 15, 2015, LiuGong called a large and high-end product launch in Changzhou, the core base for LiuGong’s strategy in the East. Here, LiuGong successfully displayed the 8t and 12t H-Series wheel loaders; the 48t, 50t and 70t E-Series excavators; the TC550A and TC250A5 cranes; and the TD40E bulldozer. At the same time, 60 LiuGong excavators were distributed to clients within the Americas. Global Player Having begun its internationalization strategy in 2003, LiuGong has become an example to other enterprises in the Chinese CE industry, demonstrating its success in

both overseas sales volumes and ratio of export products compared to its competitors. After growing from a local factory in a small city in China’s southwest region to the 22nd largest construction equipment manufacturer in the world, Zeng Guang’an, chairman of LiuGong, attributes LiuGong’s continued success to the company’s global vision, confidence and commitment. He predicts that international business will account for 40 percent of LiuGong’s revenue in 2020. He has good reason to feel confident in this prediction. The company has established subsidiary offices and undertaken mergers and acquisitions in key regional markets. It has built a rapidly growing network of more than 374 dealers across seven continents in more than 136 countries. Supporting the dealer network are 10 regional offices with engineering, marketing and service support, coupled with eight overseas parts depots located strategically throughout the world, ensuring rapid replacement of parts and servicing of equipment. LiuGong does not enter a market without dealers and support systems in place. LiuGong’s most recent major global action was to establish a manufacturing plant in Brazil in March 2015, in an effort to penetrate the burgeoning South American market. LiuGong highly values its relationships with world-class partners. It has cooperated with Cummins and ZF on many of its core technologies and major components, which it has used across LiuGong’s product lines, including the new E-Series excavators and H-Series wheel loaders. The company’s global strategy has attracted talent from all over the world. David Beatenbough joined LiuGong in 2006 and is in charge of R&D. Following Beatenbough, other global experts in the field also have joined LiuGong, from industrial design to product development professionals. Howard Dale was appointed as vice president of LiuGong Dressta Machinery Co. Ltd. in Poland, and chairman of LiuGong Machinery Europe B.V., after working with Case Corporation for several years.

Mack Trucks Help Drive Hollywood Feed’s Success Memphis business owner Shawn McGhee believes in being the best, and that culture of excellence has resulted in astronomical growth for his company, Hollywood Feed. Today, he is reshaping the pet industry and setting a new standard for his customers. It is no coincidence that when he decided to operate his own, in-house fleet, Mack trucks were his equipment of choice for reliability, reputation and cost efficiency. There was another benefit: The bright yellow Mack Pinnacles are so eye-catching that they have become an integral part of Hollywood Feed’s branding campaign. McGhee is no stranger to success. He rose rapidly through the managerial ranks of both AutoZone and Office Depot, and when his keen eye spotted three failing feed stores, he knew he could make them profitable. In 2006, he purchased the stores and revamped them from the ground up. Today, Hollywood Feed focuses exclusively on premium products for dogs and cats, with more than 40 stores in five states — Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas and Texas. McGhee expects to build 20 new stores in 2016. Revenue is increasing by 40 to 50 percent per year. “If we can’t do something really well, we don’t do it at all,” he said. Keeping costs down was a top priority, but when McGhee ran the numbers, he realized he could get better service at a lower price if he operated his own fleet rather than relying on a carrier. There was an added advantage, too: The stores are busy in the daytime and parking is scarce, but if he hired his own drivers, he could schedule overnight, unattended deliveries. He started out with another OEM, but in 2013, he called Tri-State Truck Center in Memphis. The company was growing fast, and he needed equipment better suited for his operation. After exhaustive research, he decided Mack Trucks could take Hollywood Feed’s distribution to the next level. He currently holds full-service leases on five Mack Pinnacle models and plans to rotate them out every four to five years. “We chose Mack because of the reputation and reliability,” McGhee said. “We drove other brands, but we weren’t happy with the drivability and cab accessories. Our drivers love the Macks.” Each tractor and trailer is custom retrofitted to meet the company’s unique needs, said Eric Fite, vice president of Tri-State Truck Center in Memphis. The biggest challenge was spec’ing the right wheelbase size and trailer size to maximize payload and maneuverability. They decided to go with an extra-short, extra-wide trailer 42 ft. long with an interior of 100 in. wide. Because every minute counts toward

Shawn McGhee had his Mack trucks customized inside and out to maximize payload, maneuverability and driver comfort.

the bottom line, McGhee had 250 to 300 gal. fuel tanks installed, minimizing the frequency of fuel stops. And he had one more request: He wanted his drivers to be as happy and comfortable as possible. The cabs are equipped with microwaves, televisions, satellite radios, GPS navigation and even PlayStations. “They’ve got a ton of bells and whistles on those trucks,” Fite said. “It’s unusual for someone to pay that much attention, but McGhee didn’t mind paying extra for lots of small options to keep his drivers happy.” Happy drivers mean low turnover and recruiting costs and greater customer satisfaction. His drivers are proud to drive the flashy, bright yellow trucks with the canine theme. A massive red paw is emblazoned on the hood, right behind the Mack Bulldog. The trailers are built by Great Dane and feature the Great Dane logo on the rear door, along with a large dog silhouette and the word, “Woof!” The sides feature more silhouettes of dogs. The positive brand image extends to customers who say they like the trucks so much that they take photographs when they see them on the road, tagging Hollywood Feed on social media. “The trucks are a nice adjunct to the business,” McGhee said. “They get a lot of attention. Our trucks are the nicest on the road.”

As the company grows, McGhee anticipates adding more Macks to the fleet and appreciates his relationship with his dealer. “Mack handles the whole fleet maintenance equation,” he said. “We don’t even think about it. We don’t have any mechanics on staff. We entrust Mack with the service and care.” McGhee focuses instead on how to grow his company, coming up with new ways to delight pet owners and improve the lives of their animals. A Different Breed The company’s tagline is “A different breed,” and McGhee personally oversees every product they sell and is constantly seeking fun and innovative solutions for his growing clientele. They have had great success with the Mississippi Made line of dog beds, and they are now making collars and leashes from the leftover bedding material. McGhee’s main focus is improving the lives and well-being of companion animals, and employee education is a critical component. Each of the company’s 250 employees starts out with 80 hours of training in animal nutrition and health, taught by veterinarians, researchers and nutritionists, and they receive an additional 40 hours of instruction per year.

And they are not just spouting textbook knowledge either. Each employee receives up to 500 pounds of food per month, with Hollywood Feed providing food for around 1,200 employee-owned dogs. Their pets are allowed free rein in the store, with sometimes as many as 20 dogs roaming the building, acting as four-footed ambassadors. “We believe in our product,” McGhee said. “We buy it, we feed it, we support it. We have a passion for pets.” That passion extends to the community, with Hollywood Feed donating a significant amount of time and money to charitable causes, from animal adoptions to providing free doghouses and straw for dogs left outside in the cold Tennessee winters. Outsiders might expect such largesse to be costly — and it is — but through hard work and business savvy, Hollywood Feed should continue to grow for decades to come. “God blessed me with the ability to absorb and understand where opportunities may lie,” McGhee said. “We think about the business at a level I don’t think many companies do. We focus always on quality. We want to be the best.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Aerial Access Equipment: Safe Practices Are Key By Jeff Winke CEG CORRESPONDENT

Apparently workers on scaffolding are tougher than most. For them, fall protection is not required by OSHA until 10 ft. (3m). For employees in general industry, the fallprotection height is 4 ft. (1.2 m) above a lower level. In construction work, the threshold height is 6 ft. (1.8 m). For those working on aerial lift platforms, the idea of anything falling is of major concern. The OSHA Fact Sheet-Aerial Lifts states pretty clearly that workers “Use a body harness or a restraining belt with a lanyard attached to the boom or bucket.” Any time anyone is working from elevated heights, there are dangers. It makes no difference if working from aerial work platforms, boom lifts, scissor lifts or vertical mast climbers, the safety and health concerns are the same. Steven DeMore, a 34-year aerial lift veteran and president of DeMore’s Innovative Design Inc.‬,Menomonee Falls, Wis., offers advice in three key areas: 1.Know your equipment with its controls, warning signs and signals, as well as your work surroundings. 2.Never assume that what you cannot see won’t hurt you. Stop, look and pay attention to what’s above and below; your concern for safety is equally as important for the people below as for yourself. 3.Be organized. Clutter and too many items on the lift platform could create an unsafe condition, which could cause items to fall as well as create possible tripping hazards. Consider that every project involving aerial access equipment has three distinct phases — pre-operation, during operation and after operation phases — with safety and health concerns for each. Pre-Operation “Inspect your work area in and out of the aerial lift — always look and think ahead,” DeMore stated.‬“Do not become complacent, for yourself as well as your coworkers. If the young workers see the old timers concerned about lift safety they’ll see that as the norm and be more likely to participate in good, safe aerial lift usage.” Paying close attention to pre-use inspection of the equipment is critical. Keeping a checklist with the equipment and requiring operators to literally check off each item before signing and dating will help prevent operators from hastily using an aerial lift with mechanical problems that become apparent when it’s too late. Most aerial access equipment manufacturers provide equipment checklists that

cover everything from proper fluid levels to checking hydraulic, air, pneumatic, fuel and electrical systems to ensuring that mechanical features and locking pins are in place — in other words, all the important details that should be looked at before operating the piece of equipment. The OSHA Fact Sheet recommends a work zone inspection before using aerial access equipment. This inspection includes looking up to see if there are dangerous overhead hazards such as power lines and communication cables. The University of Kentucky provides its lift users with an “Aerial Lift Safety Program” booklet, which includes cautions about wind: “Consideration shall be given to the amount of wind. Follow the manufacturer’s instruction regarding operation in windy conditions. As a general rule aerial lifts shall not be operated in winds exceeding 25 mph, although this can vary depending on the model of equipment: • At 20 mph wind speeds or anticipated gusts, lifts will be lowered to a maximum height of 20 ft. (6 m). • At 25 mph wind speeds or anticipated gusts, lifts will be grounded. • If at any time, personnel/staff feels

unsafe, due to weather or wind conditions prior to using an aerial lift, they may make a decision to ground the lift and cease ... no questions asked.

working on aerial access equipment that safety and efficiency skills were intermixed. I discovered that working safe would transfer into efficiency.”

Safe Operations Operator safety is paramount, which means making sure that platform gates or openings are closed and that the operator does not climb or lean over guardrails or handrails. Planks, ladders or other devices should not be used on the work platform. Any workers on an aerial lift platform or bucket should use a body harness or a restraining belt with a lanyard attached to the boom or bucket. Accidents happen when they are least expected so it makes no sense to forgo these simple, required life-saving devices. “I learned from my days working on a factory production line that if I came in and adjusted my moves enough during production, I could actually work safer and more efficiently to a point where I could work back into production those parts that the previous shift operator had set aside because they had been overwhelmed and could not keep up,” DeMore stated. “I knew when I got to the construction trade and started

Post-Operation Shut Down When the day’s projects are completed and it’s time to descend to ground level, the shut-down process should be in mind. Safe shutdown can begin after finding a suitable parking area, placing the platform in the stowed position, placing controls in neutral, idling the engine for gradual cooling, turning off electrical power, and taking the necessary steps to prevent unauthorized use. The courteous operator wants to leave the equipment in the same condition they’d hope to find it the next time they work — clean, refueled and ready to work. “Aerial access equipment can be the best, safest way to perform work at elevated heights,” DeMore said. “Caution combined with safe practices can ensure productive use of the various types of lift equipment now available.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Next Generation…

Landoll Introduces New Hydraulic Operating Systems After more than a year of development, the Next Generation Landoll Trailer has arrived. The Landoll Trailer Line is taking a huge leap forward with the introduction of the all new hydraulic operating systems, nicknamed H.O.S.S., and high visibility lighting package. The 440 and 455 “A” Series traveling axle trailers will be the first models with these added standard features. H.O.S.S. cuts the overall operational time in half. The axle traveling forward has increased by 36 percent and moving back by 58 percent. Tilt deck positioning has increased to nearly 63 percent, while winch in and out speeds are closer to 66 percent. This improvement will allow for more loads to take place. “The speed will be the most noticeable change, but the long term value will be in the damage and downtime prevention,” said Gary Dwerlkotte, Landoll Trailer sales coordinator. Restrictors in the system have been removed to eliminate much of the back pressure, leading to cooler operational temperatures and noise reduction. Long term, wear

on components and seals will require less maintenance, yet the quieter system will be a daily benefit. The continuous oil encasement of the valves in the control panel overcome the need for maintenance needed before with the exposed components. In the previous system, the open center inlet required the oil to circulate through the entire system before returning to the tank, allowing for only a 14 GPM (53 Lpm) flow. Oil will now only travel through the inlet and back to the tank, cre-

ating a 20 GPM (76 Lpm) flow, according to the manufacturer. Brad Bergman, Landoll engineering project manager, said “we went through extensive field testing with three prototype valves in real life cold and harsh environments before ever going into production.” Testing occurred in the Northern Alberta and Quebec provinces of Canada, as well as the New England region of the United States. Long term testing will continue to

gather data for future development. The chosen closed spool valve system was designed and built in Italy. Jim Ladner, Landoll Corporation’s National Trailer sales manager, said “the Italians are world famous for their expertise in hydraulics. We are bringing world knowledge and technology to the Landoll trailer with this addition.” “For several years we have needed to clean up the system to make it more user friendly,” said Dwerlkotte. The control panel is now located at chest height, encouraging ergonomic and visual improvement, versus previously being located on the lower arm of the gooseneck. Controls are in five predetermined hydraulic function locations, cutting out the need for modifications to the frame at either the factory or dealership. Bergman added that “this better technology and design simplifies the system.” For more information, call 785/562-5381 or visit http://www.landoll.com.

Missing Link Provides Solution for Vac System Transport New product development is a never-ending cycle, and at times, a manufacturer needs to look outside its realm of expertise to find the solution. That was the case in the collaboration and creation of the FT-14 I Vac trailer. A need arose for a transport unit for a manufacturer of vacuum excavation unit systems that did not have such a product in its offerings. The brand dealer contacted its F e l l i n g Trailers’ sales

rep. to assist in filling this void, as Felling is noted in the trailer industry for its expert ability to create customized configurations for such needs. The brand manufacturer had the Vac System components but did not have a model available with the transport configuration its customers wanted. So the journey began with the brand dealer and brand manufacturer working closely with Felling Trailers’ sales rep. and Felling’s engineering department to develop the FT-14 I

Vac model as its transport solution. The model was engineered to provide the necessary capacity and placement of component mounts to ensure proper load distribution. Some of the noted features include: specific cross member locations to match component foot print; steel decking with precut mounting hole locations; cross members with matching mounting hole locations; recessed tailboard and deck area for the spoils tank to clear when dumping yet maintaining; and rear bumper for under ride protection. Many of the customized modifications that were utilized in the design of the FT-14 I Vac trailer are common to Felling Trailers Generator trailer models. The design of this model has since been put into production and has received positive feedback from the brand manufacturer. As the initial units have been put into service, multiple Felling Trailers dealers that sell this manufacturer’s brand are expressing interest in this model, according to Felling. For more information, call 800/245-2809 or visit www.felling.com. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

The Felling FT-14 I vac model was the result of a collaboration between a brand dealer and Felling.

How Heavy Equipment Dealers Meet Service Guarantees By Del Williams SPECIAL TO CEG

When a heavy equipment dealer makes a service guarantee, it is a promise that can make or break the sales relationship. If the customer’s recently purchased equipment fails in the field, production stops and labor stands idle until repairs are made. A bad experience today also can affect potential future sales. For that reason, many new and used heavy equipment dealers offer warranty or service programs that include regular lubrication and preventive maintenance to ensure equipment performs as expected, with maximum uptime. Given the size of the equipment and the logistics of moving it to another location, this work typically occurs at the construction site, off-hours, by trained field technicians. “As a full line John Deere construction equipment dealer, when we sell equipment we are committed to keeping our customers up and running through our Erbvantage maintenance plan that allows us to handle the uptime while our customers keep working,” said Gregg Erb, president of Erb Equipment Company, one of the largest equipment suppliers in the Midwest. “Regularly scheduled and documented maintenance including lubrication in the field not only helps our customers stay more productive and profitable, but also extends the life of their equipment and increases its resale value.” However, the traditional field service model of hauling a variety of containers of grease, hydraulic fluid, oil and other lubricants that must be lifted in and out of trucks and then poured or pumped by hand is no longer adequate. This is not only a slow and inefficient way to complete such work, adding to the costs, but also increases the risk of injury to technicians, spills, and even the potential to accidentally ignite the highly flammable products. “We prioritize safety and uptime for our customers’ equipment and our technicians,” said Erb. “Older maintenance methods, such as having technicians lift heavy 5-gallon containers of oil and lubricants on and off trucks can be unsafe and

A superior method of maintenance being utilized by heavy equipment dealers is to invest in properly designed lube skids mounted on trucks.

inefficient. It can lead to injury when lifting or jumping in and out of the truck bed.” According to Erb, containers that are not properly sealed also can lead to contamination of lubricant with water from rain or snow. Once introduced to the construction equipment, it can affect equipment performance and even cause damage. An alternative now being utilized by heavy equipment dealers is to invest in properly designed lube skids mounted on trucks, or lube trailers, that can be used to quickly, safely and ergonomically dispense lubricants, such as oil and grease, as well as efficiently recover used oil. Some trailers also can safely dispense fuel. Although standard skids and trailers exist in the market, some manufacturers offer custom options designed to satisfy every field requirement. Such customization not only helps dealers honor their service guarantees more efficiently and at less cost, but also maximizes uptime for the customer. To enhance safety, equipment uptime, and productivity, Erb Equipment has worked with Valley Industries, a provider of custom as well as standard lube skids, trailers and trucks, to customize LubeMate lube skids for many years. “We request just the features we require in our truck-mounted, custom lube skids,” said Erb. “Each

of our service trucks is equipped with the essential oils, grease and waste oil tanks needed.” With the custom skids, dealers can select just what they need in terms of tank number and size for clean or waste oil, grease, antifreeze, water or washer fluid. By choosing options for pump, reel, hose, meter and dispenser as well as layout, cabinet, drip pan and containment they can further optimize their field service. “Outfitting our service trucks with custom lube skids has increased our profitability since we’ve increased the number of field service calls we can perform per day, while enabling our technicians to be safer and more efficient,” said Erb. “That translates into greater customer satisfaction, which is our number one priority.” Meeting Service Guarantees “To maximize our customers’ uptime and meet any service guaranties, we will go to our customers’ job sites and schedule their maintenance after hours,” said Erb. “All of our service trucks are equipped with vehicle tracking so we can immediately dispatch one of our closest field service trucks to take care of our customers’ needs. It’s all about providing uptime to earn our customers’ business.” Erb incorporated a number of features in the truck-mounted, custom lube skids to help his mobile techni-

Although standard skids and trailers exist in the market, some manufacturers offer custom options designed to satisfy every field requirement.

cians be as efficient as possible. With such custom skids and trailers, dealers can specify the location of the tanks, retractable reels and equipment so workers can safely, efficiently dispense oil and fluids while standing on the ground. “The use of ergonomically positioned retractable reels eliminates the slip-fall workers comp hazards related to climbing on or off a truck or moving heavy barrels to retrieve product,” said Erb. Among the features that Erb expects on his Valley Industries’ LubeMate skids are digital metering, which tells the technician exactly how much is dispensed, as well as sight gauges that show the remaining fluid levels to ensure the technician does not accidently get caught short. According to Erb, another lube service area that can be prohibitively time consuming and labor intensive is recovering used oil, as the process cannot contaminate the job site and is monitored by the EPA. While typical used oil evacuation can be slow and messy, his skids all have “no spill” quick couplers for fast oil evacuation directly from the oil pan. Although Erb prefers to purchase skids, enclosed or open lubrication trailers also are available, as well as trailers designed to deliver diesel fuel. These trailers also can be configured to meet just about any requirements.

For dealers looking to provide contractors with the custom lube or fuel service required, fast response and delivery can be vital to meet construction project deadlines. While typical manufacturers may take several months to deliver a custom lube skid or trailer because they are not geared up to do so, some that focus on such work can deliver it in less than a month. As field service continues to grow, Erb Equipment plans to continue investing in its fleet of mobile equipment. “We have been adding several new field service trucks to our fleet each year,” said Erb. “As we rotate the older units out, we are able to increase our resale value when the vehicle is equipped with LubeMate skids.” “Any heavy equipment dealers looking to profitably meet their service guarantees and better service their customers should look into lube skid customization, and will appreciate the fast turnaround,” said Erb. “We received the custom lube skids we needed as soon as three weeks after ordering them.” For more information, call 800/400-0124 or visit www.valleyindustries.com.

GT125 Offers Energy Savings, Reduced Cost of Operation KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens has introduced the newgeneration track-mounted GT125 Vanguard jaw crusher, which offers increased energy savings, reduced cost of operation and improved reliability. The GT125 is an ideal mobile crusher for aggregate production, mining, recycle and concrete applications. Its large, dynamically-balanced, heavy-duty flywheels produce up to 33 percent more inertia than other models, leading to a reduced cost per ton over the lifetime of the machine. The crusher’s large, 1 ¼ in. stroke processes more material than competitive models, leading to increased production and reduced operating costs, according to Stephen Whyte, product manager of KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens. The updated GT125 features a 27 by 42 in. (68.5 by 106.6 cm) Vanguard jaw crusher with hydraulic drive and reverse capabilities, and full hydraulic CSS adjustment. The crusher’s fixed hopper design allows for a rapid

set-up time, while a new grizzly feeder cassette allows for the replacement of the grizzly section without removing hopper sides. The unit comes with easilyreplaceable grizzly bar and finger deck options for enhanced application flexibility and versatility. An ultra-sonic level system pro-

vides continuous feed to the crusher, reducing surges and lowering wear costs. A new 7 in. Digsy 7LE controller offers increased RAM and memory. Updated bearing housings now use NGLI 02 grease, making regular maintenance easier and more convenient for the producer. A simple manual folding head

section on the discharge conveyor reduces the footprint of the machine, reducing costs when shipping overseas, Whyte said. “Our new GT125 model offers the same industry-leading performance while enhancing the design for improved ease-of-use for the producer,” Whyte said.

“Stationary and portable producers alike will benefit from its exceptional mobility and productivity.” For more information, visit kpijci.com. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Tyler Hydro-Clean Uses Less Water to Clean Effectively The Tyler Hydro-Clean washing unit from Haver & Boecker effectively cleans deleterious material from aggregate, recycled and other minerals while reducing water consumption by as much as 75 percent compared to traditional log washers, according to the manufacturer. Unlike traditional washing systems that can require as many as three screens along with a log washer or screw, the producer only needs an additional wash screen for the Hydro-Clean’s discharged material. The Hydro-Clean comes in three model sizes that produce 18 to 360 tons (16 to 326.6 t) per hour, depending on the application: the HC350, HC1000 and HC2000. Taking feed material size as large as 6 in. (15 cm) into its vertical drum, the Hydro-Clean employs high-pressure nozzles, rotating at 90 rpm, to spray as much as 90 percent recycled water on the material with pressures as high as 2,000 psi (140 bars). The washing unit removes silt and clay particles as small as 63 microns from mineral mixtures, and

depending on the model and application, the Hydro-Clean processes as much as 360 tons per hour with its short retention times. Due to its compact size and weight, overall operating and structural costs are considerably lower than with traditional washing systems, which also require more equipment and a larger footprint, according to the manufacturer. The Hydro-Clean consumes little water and power. Water consumption ranges from 27 to 211 gpm (102 to 799 Lpm), depending on application and model size. In comparison, log washers use as much as 800 gpm of water. Power requirements for the Hydro-Clean also are less than log washers; Hydro-Clean’s largest model uses no more than 300 hp (225 kW). When compared to conventional systems, the HydroClean experiences little wear due to a maintenance-friendly design that allows for easy exchange of the few standard components that are subject to wear. Ideal for use in clay-heavy

Unlike traditional washing systems that can require as many as three screens along with a log washer or screw, the producer only needs an additional wash screen for the Hydro-Clean’s discharged material.

material deposits, the Hydro-Clean is fed dirty material via a hopper into its vertical drum. Once inside, high-pressure nozzles mounted at the top rotate and spray the material with water. The turbulence in the drum creates additional scrubbing and abrasive forces that enhance the cleaning process as the material travels down the drum cylinder. High-pressure streams of water are

injected into areas of the rock (holes, cracks, etc.) that are difficult to reach with traditional cleaning methods, such as log washers or screws — creating a cleaner product that generates higher selling value. In addition, many producers use this unit to turn material that was once waste into sellable product. During the cleaning process, the

washed material works its way down the drum and exits onto a discharge conveyor that leads to a standard wash screen, The screen removes any remaining dirt or clay still on the stone as it fractionates the material. The resulting dirty water flows through polyurethane screen mesh installed in the sides of the washing drum. It is collected by a waste water pipe, which sends the water to a treatment system for additional fine screening. The distance between the washing rotor and the material bed in the Hydro-Clean is variable and allows the system to adapt to a wide range of material types. Level sensors at the material feed inlet provide exact data to the programmable log controller, ensuring a consistent material flow into the system.

ESGR Honors Newman With Patriotic Employer Award A supervisor of KolbergPioneer Inc. (KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens) has been honored with the Patriotic Employer Award for ongoing support of servicemen and women in the National Guard and Reserve Force. Ryan Newman, director of parts of KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens, was individually recognized for providing outstanding support to a member of the National Guard or Army Reserve by the South Dakota Employer Support of the Guard & Reserve (ESGR) organization. Newman was nominated by Kyle LaCroix, an outside parts sales representative and a sergeant in the 960th Quartermaster Company of the Army Reserves. LaCroix, who has worked for the company since March 2014, said he appreciates working for an employer that makes it easy for him to serve his country while finding success in a civilian job. “It means so much to have a supportive employer, as well as a manager like Ryan Newman,”

LaCroix said. “I know it can be difficult to allow an employee to take off two weeks in the summer with no replacement, but KolbergPioneer has been completely understanding of my military obligation. I also understand that when I’m gone, it places a larger workload on my colleagues. Rather than complain, they show their support by texting me and asking how I am doing and how my training is going. I can honestly say a supportive employer is just as important to our nation as the soldier himself.” Newman said he was honored to be recognized as a Patriotic Employer, and values the unique skill sets servicemen and women bring to the company. “Kyle has been an exemplary employee, and the skills he brings from his military service — such as leadership, responsibility, pride in his work, discipline and professionalism — are invaluable to the company,” Newman said. “We are proud to support him as he serves our country and are glad to go

above and beyond what is required to support our men and women in th¬e military.” This is the fourth time KolbergPioneer Inc. has been honored with the Patriotic Employer Award by

the South Dakota ESGR. The company was last recognized with the award in 2013, when Mechanic Wade Peterson nominated Maintenance Supervisor Randy Blunck.

Kolberg-Pioneer Inc. employs 63 men and women who have served or are currently serving in the military. Kolberg-Pioneer Inc. is one of three manufacturing companies that make up KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens. KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens is a worldwide leader in manufacturing equipment for the aggregate, construction, mining and recycling industries. The ESGR is a Department of Defense organization that was established in 1972 to promote cooperation and understanding between Reserve component members and their civilian employers.

technology and enhanced patient care.” Officials have stated that a bigger, more modern facility will allow Baptist to better serve patients and offer more convenience to those it serves. “The replacement hospital is being built across the street from the current hospital, which is located on Lamar Avenue,” said Henning. “We bought 140 acres on the west side of the current hospital that was all wooded, and have cleared the site and built a connecting road from South Lamar to Old Taylor, which is called Belk Boulevard.” Robins & Morton is serving as the general contractor on the project. Site work began in early January 2015. The projected date for receiving the first patient is December 2017. More than 9,400 ft. (2,865 m) of storm drain piping has already been installed, along with 7,930 ft. (2,417 m) of water piping and 3,920 ft. (1,194 m) of sewer piping. There’s also 47,000 tons (42,637 t) of crushed limestone base, with curbing and asphalt on 50 percent of future site roads and parking. Deep foundations involve 2,295 piles. They are 14-in. (35 cm) diameter and up to 35 ft. (10.6 m) deep. Each can support 75 tons (68 m). Tower crane one is 180-ft. (54.8 m) high, while tower crane two is 220-ft. (67 m) high. Both have a reach of 262 ft. (79.8 m), and can pick up 32 tons (29 t). The initial phase of site work and the utility installation was completed at the end of July. Deep foundation piles were finished in late June. Work continues on the concrete structure, and soon crews will be starting on the exterior building skin. Interior build-out is scheduled to begin next March, with a completion date of May 2017. Hennings said, “When Baptist became affiliated with the Oxford facility in 1989, the system committed to expanding the facility into a regional referral center. Since then, Baptist has invested more than $160 million into the current facility, and the medical staff has grown from 20 to more than 120 physicians. The level of care has transformed the hospital into a regional referral center, offering open-heart surgery and a wealth of other high-level services.” Henning also said the community is very supportive of the new hospital. “It’s exciting times. Oxford is growing by leaps and bounds, and the community considers itself very fortunate to have the medical staff we have, offering over 40 specialties in a community the size of Oxford, not to mention a new hospital that will serve as a regional referral center. “As our medical staff continues to grow and as we add more specialties, Baptist North Mississippi is capable of servicing a 12-county area,” Henning said. “People are

now realizing that they don’t have to drive to the big city. Baptist is offering the same care you get in Memphis or Jackson, but just closer to home for the surrounding communities.” As for the eventual transfer to the new campus Henning said, “We are already working with several different companies that specialize in the transition phase. They will start meeting with our team at the current hospital soon, to begin planning the moving of any equipment to the new hospital, as well moving the patients in December 2017.” The new hospital construction has prompted other development in the medical

community surrounding the hospital. Several developers have bought property on South Lamar and are developing it for new medical complexes and freestanding medical clinics that several physicians are relocating to at this time. In addition, the YMCA plans to build a new facility with expanded services in the area, and a hotel is taking shape across from the current hospital. It will be the first hotel in Oxford that’s close to the hospital, offering patients and their families from outside Lafayette a convenient place to stay. The new campus reportedly represents one of the largest economic developments

in the history of Oxford and Lafayette County, and will continue to position Baptist North Mississippi as a regional referral center. According to Jon Maynard, president and CEO, Oxford-Lafayette County Chamber of Commerce and Economic Development Foundation, the new hospital reflects more than a brick and mortar facility for the area. “The new hospital represents an investment in our community. The upgrade in facilities will help us treat patients with the latest equipment in a state-of-the-art facility that is designed to grow with the demand of the healthcare needs of the region. “The psychological impact, however is much more than that. It allows us to recruit new physicians and new services to our area like never before. The investment by Baptist Hospital indicates a faith in the economic strength of our community. Their commitment to building a new facility in Oxford is indicative of the sort of sustainable, high quality growth that our community is experiencing.” Maynard said the hospital already has a significant economic impact on the community and region. “The construction jobs and the purchase of materials will have a very high, but somewhat short lived, impact on the local economy. The long-term impact will more likely than not double what the hospital currently offers. I say that in respect of the ability to recruit new physicians, new patients and to purchase new equipment that could not be done with the outdated facility in place today.” The city and county worked together to make the new hospital a reality. The construction is one more indication that the area see BAPTIST page 86

Cooperation Among Nations...

LiuGong Advances Along Path of China’s Proposed ‘Belt and Road’ Initiative The China-proposed “Belt and Road” initiatives cover Asia, Africa and Europe, and each country along the routes of the “Silk Road Economic Belt” and “21st Century Maritime Silk Road.” The initiatives seek to promote win-win cooperation among participating nations by breaking any infrastructure bottlenecks. This is achieved by boosting the efficiency of resource allocation and through the development of market integration. The initiatives are presenting opportunities to ambitious CE manufacturers — LiuGong, a premier Chinese construction equipment manufacturer, is prepared to take advantage.

example for Chinese construction machinery companies aspiring to go global. “Judging from our current status and so far satisfying achievements, LiuGong’s globalization strategy has been ahead of the era and all our efforts are paying off,” said Zeng Guang’an, chairman of LiuGong Group. “Despite the domestic market’s tumble, LiuGong still performs well in sales revenue and profits due to our overseas business. Meanwhile, the overseas markets have played a significant role in the improvement of product technologies, product quality and LiuGong management systems.”

LiuGong, 12-Year’s Path to Globalization LiuGong started its globalization path in 2003, and since then it has never stopped trying to realize its vision of becoming a world-class company in the construction machinery industry. After 12 years’ effort, LiuGong has now established a strong global layout. The company supports its global business with broad subsidiary offices, manufacturing plants and R&D centers across five continents. It also owns the strongest dealer network of all China’s construction machinery manufacturers, which includes more than 380 dealers in over 130 countries, and extends to over 2,650 sales outlets around the world. Its ten regional offices, in conjunction with eight overseas parts distribution centers, ensure the highest standard of service to LiuGong customers, with rapid replacement of parts and the servicing of equipment in any part of the world, according to the company. As of now, LiuGong’s overseas business has accounted for more than 35 percent of the total revenue, with overseas employees making up 20 percent of the staff, and overseas assets accounting for nearly 10 percent of total assets. LiuGong has become one of the most internationalized companies in China, setting an undisputed

LiuGong Establishes Roots in the B&R Countries As a pioneer of globalization in the industry, LiuGong has coordinated a layout relating to “the B&R countries”. In the past 10 years, LiuGong has set up its business network in 62 of the 65 B&R countries, among which LiuGong has established a dealer network, including service and parts distribution centers in five Central Asia countries. In 2012, by acquiring the civil engineering machinery division of the Huta Stalowa Wola and Dressta brand in Poland, LiuGong expanded its dealer network and established a perfect base at the start of the Silk Road Economic Belt construction. From now on, all LiuGong customers along the Silk Road Economic Belt will enjoy convenient and rapid services while using LiuGong products. Tough World. Tough Equipment The Silk Road Economic Belt covers a vast territory of geographical diversity, such as plateaus, deserts and frozen earth. On top of this, the environments are made more demanding due to extremely hot summers and freezing winters, which inevitably result in difficulties in the construction of infrastructure and place high demands on the heavy equipment used.

As a world’s leading manufacturer of a full line of extreme duty, intuitive machines, LiuGong can provide total solutions for infrastructure constructions, the company said. Basic earthwork, road or railway projects, airport construction, tunnels and bridges work, and other tasks relating to transport infrastructure — no matter the challenges of construction or maintenance, customers can always depend on LiuGong machines. LiuGong possesses a deep understanding of the extreme conditions since its machines are forged in a country of vast geographical diversity, where harsh environments are the norm and easy physical or economic conditions are a rarity. LiuGong machines can be reliably operated anywhere and are smartly designed to allow for maintenance in the most isolated locations — making them perfect for meeting the demands of “the Belt and Road” construction, the company said. “The Belt and Road initiative” brings opportunities for companies as well as challenges for them to exert their own advantages, establish globalization strategy, and realize global operation. For LiuGong, the globalization strategy means not just to build an operations management system accepted globally, but also to overcome the national and cultural obstacles that result from this integration. LiuGong has long held a strong culture of localization, openness and inclusiveness, all of which have gained the company impressive high-level talents and advanced experiences. LiuGong will continue this tradition and provide better services for customers in the B&R countries to create a sustainable business model of cooperation and “winwin”.

Vortec...

Rugged Engines Combine Cast Iron Strength, Aluminum Performance The gasoline-powered Vortec 6.0L V8 L96 heads the Powertrain Integration (PI) OEM engineered lineup of GM Gen IV Vortec small block engines for the truck and chassis market. These rugged engines combine a cast iron block for strength with deep breathing aluminum cylinder heads for performance. The GM 6.0L L96 is a proven performer in a variety of medium duty on-highway applications. The L96 produces 332 hp at 4,400 rpm and 380 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,200 rpm, and is paired with Allison automatic transmissions. Validated for applications from 8,500 to 23,500 lbs. (3,855 to 10,659 kg) GVWR, the L96 is approved for on-highway use in all 50 states and Canada. Powertrain Integration precisely calibrates the GM E78 engine controller to produce impressive output and fuel economy. The 6.0L V8 L96 is E85 compatible, and unlike most consumer product engines, has been dynamometer emissions certified, which greatly reduces the cost of overall vehicle emissions certification, according to the manufacturer. Powertrain Integration has supplied tens of thousands of 6.0L gasoline engines to FCCC for use in their MT-45/55 walk-in van chassis, creating an efficient alternative to diesel in the medium duty delivery van segment. 6.0L LC8 Gaseous Fuel Prep The Powertrain Integration GM 6.0 L LC8 V8 brings to the medium duty market the proven performance and reliability of the L96 gasoline engine with the benefits of alternative fuel operation. In addition to the L96 specs, the LC8 features stainless steel intake valves, Inconel exhaust valves, and hardened valve seats to withstand the rigors of gaseous fuels such as liquid propane gas (LPG) — commonly referred to as propane autogas — and compressed natural gas (CNG). For propane autogas operation, Powertrain Integration fits the LC8 with a liquid propane injection (LPI) fuel system from partner CleanFuel USA (CFUSA). The Powertrain Integration LC8 engine is a 100 percent OEM product — unique in a segment where propane autogas systems are installed by vehicle upfitters. The propane autogas LC8 combines great durability and refined, quiet operation with 308 hp at 4,800 rpm and 367

lb.-ft. of torque at 4,400 rpm, and is paired with Allison automatic transmissions. Like the L96 gas engine, the propane autogas LC8 is validated from 8,500 to 23,500 lbs. GVWR, and is 50-state and Canadian on-highway approved. In March 2014, UPS announced an order of 1,000 Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation MT-45G package delivery vehicles equipped with the PI LC8 and CFUSA fuel system. At the time, Powertrain Integration President Robert Pachla observed, “This is proof that the medium duty industry has embraced the 6.0L LC8 LPG not only as a diesel replacement but as an alternative to gasoline.” Powertrain Integration not only supplied the engines for this massive propane deployment, PI also installed the chassis-mounted portions of the CFUSA fuel systems using a process known as Second Stage Manufacturing. Powertrain Integration set up a satellite plant near FCCC chassis assembly in Gaffney, S.C., to quickly complete the 1,000 units before they travelled to Morgan Olson to receive their walk-in van bodies. The FCCC MT-45G propane autogas chassis is not a UPS exclusive; any customer can purchase the package. In addition to low fuel costs, propane boasts abundant North American supply, excellent availability, and the infrastructure cost is among the least expensive alternative fuels. Given the enthusiastic reception of UPS to this propane autogas offering, other fleets may likely be deploying this attractive alternative fuel option, according to the manufacturer. Powertrain Integration also has supplied the 6.0L LC8 gaseous fuel prep engine to FCCC for customers to convert their MT-45/55G walk-in vans to compressed natural gas operation. Running on CNG, the LC8 generates 282 hp @ 4,800 rpm and 320 lb.-ft. of torque @ 4,400 rpm. Like the gasoline L96 and LPG LC8 versions, the CNG LC8 engine paired with Allison 1000/2000 series automatic transmissions is validated to 23,500 lbs. GVWR and is 50-state certified. Powertrain Integration also can assist users in sourcing a CNG fuel system. For more information, visit www.PowertrainIntegration.com.

Equipment Veteran Makes Inroads for Autolube in Farming John Goodridge is on a mission to introduce farmers, contractors and municipalities to the dollar and sense of adding automatic lubrication to their equipment that runs day in and day out. “I got to know the Beka-Max system because of my past experience being a John Deere dealer,” he said. “They became standard equipment on the self-propelled forage harvesters, and during all that time, due to their reliability and robustness, we never had any service calls because the lube system was not working.” According to Dave McDougall, product manager of Beka-Max of America Inc., the main pump holds approximately 6 to 8 tubes of grease and is transparent so the operator can see if it’s getting low. Grease is relatively inexpensive when compared to the cost of repairs, and even more so compared to the cost of downtime. John Goodridge (L) and Jim Colf of Beka-Max at the Beka-Max of America Inc. open house recently held in Buffalo, N.Y.

Still in the Field After 30 years in the farm equipment industry, Goodridge is now working for his son as a salesman at

George & Swede Sales and Service Inc., in the heavy equipment business. However he is still selling to farmers in addition to contractors and municipalities. George & Swede Sales and Service, in Pavilion, N.Y., serves 17 western and central New York counties and represents Hyundai, Link-Belt, Yanmar, other short line manufacturers and Beka-Max. Goodridge has always enjoyed the relationships he has built over the years with the farm community and gravitates to those people. Whatever the size of the farm, they all seem to grow, forcing them to be more efficient and to do more in the same amount of time. “As these are machines, there will always be downtime, but it can be minimized. The Beka-Max system is just another way to ensure as much ‘uptime’ as possible. Maybe not for every machine, but critical for those key machines that cannot afford to be down,” said Goodridge. “It really hit home the other day when I had to tell a farmer he needed $30,000 to repair the damage to

his wheel loader from the lack of grease. I called Beka-Max and the sales rep came out and I figured out what the cost would be for a new loader. Based on his recent experience, at approximately $7,000 installed, the Beka-Max system was a ‘no brainer’.” Goodridge reported that, together with Beka-Max, he recently delivered and installed autolube systems on three loaders, a manure spreader, a feed truck and an Oxbo hay merger. “I’m sure more will come,” he said. According to McDougall, “Anytime you can take the human factor out of a task and have it done with automation, it saves valuable time for everyone. It also allows you to be more efficient and the payback adds to the bottom line.” For more information, call 888/862-7461 or visit www.bekalube.com.

Challenges Include Design of New Access Road to Site BAPTIST from page 72

is expanding at a rapid pace. “Lafayette County has grown at a rate of 22 percent in each of the last two census periods,” Maynard said. “That puts us on pace to have three decades of more than 20 percent growth. We are the fastest growing county in Mississippi from 2010 to 2014. The University of Mississippi is currently experiencing the highest rate of enrollment and retention in its history. The growth that Oxford is experiencing has been happening for a long time, and is projected to increase at an accelerated rate.” According to Harold Petty, AIA, Earl Swensson Associates (ESa) principal/medical design director, “Baptist Memorial’s vision is to replace the existing hospital with a new state-of-the-art facility that will better serve the fast-growing region of North Mississippi. Renovation and expansion of this facility aren’t economically feasible due to its aging structures and inability to expand to meet increased patient clinical service needs. Other issues include inadequate real estate in the existing location to expand the hospital in place and provide other clinical space needs. “The biggest challenge on this job is the design and construction of a new access road

to the site that connects Belk Boulevard to South Lamar and Old Taylor Road, which are two main arteries. This new road will provide easy access to the hospital for the patients as well as emergency vehicles. The location of the road impacted the way we

master planned and located the building on the site.” As far as how the assignment differs from other structures the firm has worked on Petty said, “With a hospital design, there are 30 to 40 departments that must come togeth-

Baptist Memorial Hospital North Mississippi photo

er and agree on a working model that will be operationally efficient and best service patients, staff and physicians. “Non-health care projects do not have the complexity of a hospital project. “All the major clinical departments are designed and located for future growth to meet the needs of Baptist Memorial Hospital North Mississippi for the next 50 years. It was exciting to help them interpret their vision and prepare them to meet the health care needs of the area they serve.” Baptist Memorial Hospital North Mississippi in Oxford is an acute care facility serving the northern third of Mississippi. One of the fastest growing hospitals in the region, Baptist North Mississippi has more than 90 medical and surgical specialists focusing on cardiology, neurosurgery, radiation oncology and various other fields. Since joining the Baptist Memorial Health Care System in 1989, Baptist has invested more than $150 million into the hospital, and the facility has experienced continuous renovation and construction.

Doosan’s DX300LL-5 Log Loader Offers Increased Durability, Performance The Tier IV-compliant Doosan DX300LL-5 log loader replaces the interim Tier IV (iT4) DX300LL-3 log loader. The DX300LL-5 is powered by a 270-net-hp Scania DC9 diesel engine, providing 27 percent more horsepower than the “dash-3” model. The DX300LL-5 log loader is equipped with a fully guarded, heavyduty long undercarriage and upper structure designed specifically for forestry applications such as timber harvesting, skidding, forwarding and shovel logging. Its tracks feature heavy-duty links with double grouser shoes and full-length track guiding guards. Operators also can get a good view from inside the log loader with a 4-ft. (1.2 m) cab riser with guarding. The cab riser can be hydraulically tilted for transport. Four optional LED front working lights and two LED rear working lights are mounted to the cab to provide plentiful light before sunrise or after sunset. DX300LL-5 log loader operators can monitor the log loader’s parameters, such as engine rpm, battery voltage, and front and rear hydraulic pump pressure, while viewing the rearview camera image on an improved 7-in. liquid-crystal display (LCD) screen. An optional side camera is available, allowing both camera displays to be viewed at once. To help save valuable diesel fuel, Doosan added an auto-shutdown system for use during non-working conditions. Log loader operators can configure the idle time before auto-shutdown from 3 to 60 minutes. When enabled, the feature will shut down the log loader’s engine when the preset idle time is met. New Machine Updates In addition to auto shutdown, the Tier IV-compliant Doosan DX300LL5 log loader has the following updates: • Improved heel design works in tandem with a log grapple • More robust front guard • Boom cylinder guard • Cab guard • Standard rock guards • Pattern Change Valve Options Factory-installed options for the new DX300LL-5 log loader include the fol-

Construction Technology: Five Innovations to Watch By Jeff Winke CEG CORRESPONDENT

Without doubt, the construction industry is increasingly adopting new technology. Projects can be managed from a tablet computer, machines governed through GPS signals, and workers can clock in and out via text messages. Today, the way in which construction contractors perform work is being transformed by new technological devices and innovations. Here are five to keep an eye on: 1. Wearable Technology — Think of the possibilities for technology like Google Glass with its optical head-mounted display (OHMD) — in other words eye glasses that have the capability of reflecting projected images as well as allowing the user to see an augmented reality through it. The real world is augmented or supplemented by computer-generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data. So, a construction worker or manager could use an OHMD in the field to easily view a site plan and work instructions, monitor workers’ health and well-being, take photographs and video and communicate with off-site coworkers. The Apple Watch is another wearable with potential. Apps for the device are being developed for project management, productivity and communication. Construction apps are surely on the way. There are project estimating and invoicing apps already, so more specific construction contractor apps will follow. 2. Thermal Imager — With the ability to see what the naked eye can’t, a thermal imager can detect temperature differences, giving the power to see in the dark, observe invisi-

ble heat sources, compare relative temperatures and see through light fog and smoke. They function as a thermal camera attachment that affixes to a smart phone, which captures both still images and videos that are displayed as live thermal images right on the phone’s screen.

Today, the way in which construction contractors perform work is being transformed by new technological devices and innovations. 3. Smart Hardhats — High-tech hardhats that use 4D augmented reality technology to connect workers to their environments. Contractors could know by just a glance the status of material deliveries, and builders could be able to visualize a complete project before the foundation is even excavated. The head-mounted display improves productivity, safety and efficiency by allowing project data to be streamed and work instructions to be seen all in the context of the job being done. Sensors can alert a worker to impending danger.

4. Drones — Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are changing the way construction companies do business and monitor construction activities. They provide a way to obtain real-time data on job progress; identify potential hazards or quality issues; and are being used for surveying and mapping. The larger the construction site, the more helpful they are in monitoring the project. UAVs for construction applications include models with four, six or eight rotary blades. More blades mean more lift and more power for attached payloads. Many drone systems are controlled by smart phone, connected by Wi-Fi, and positioned using global positioning systems (GPS). Their design allows them to remain in one place for extended periods, thus saving the higher costs associated with helicopters and small planes. 5. Phablets — A phablet is a smartphone with the largersize screen that falls between a typical smartphone and a tablet computer (phone + tablet = phablet). In 2013, phablet sales accounted for a quarter of all smartphone sales and with Apple’s recent launch of the large iPhone 6 Plus, this number is expected to keep growing. The benefit of the phablet is that it combines the communication ability of smartphones and the larger screen size of tablets, allowing the ability to view drawings, detailed reports, and other material typically viewed on a computer. These devices are but a part of the technological changes transforming the construction industry. Clearly, things are not like they were and the future in construction is looking exciting.

Vermeer D40x55 S3 Drill Offers Increased Force, Speed The Vermeer D40x55 S3 Navigator horizontal directional drill (HDD) adds more punch and drilling force over its predecessor — the D36x50 Series II Navigator HDD — to offer contractors premium performance, class-leading cycle times and flexible rod options, according to the manufacturer. “Contractors considered the D36x50 Series II as one of the most versatile drills in the industry, and the D40x55 S3 is built on this versatile platform,” said Jon Kuyers, senior global product manager, underground, of Vermeer. “This machine packs more torque and pullback force into the same footprint, offering contractors a machine that can efficiently complete a wide range of work ranging from 2 to 16 inches in diameter.” Speed, simplicity and sound are the trademarks of the Vermeer S3 generation of directional drills, and the D40x55 S3 does not disappoint. With 40,000 lbs. (177.9 kN) of thrust/pullback and 5,500 ft.-lb. (7,458 Nm) of rotational torque, the D40x55 S3 offers a more than 10 percent increase in thrust and rotation over its predecessor, the D36x50 Series II — helping to maximize productivity. A 104 dBA guaranteed sound power level

With 40,000 lbs. (177.9 kN) of thrust/pullback and 5,500 ft.-lb. (7,458 Nm) of rotational torque, the D40x55 S3 offers a more than 10 percent increase in thrust and rotation over its predecessor, the D36x50 Series II — helping to maximize productivity.

and an operator ear rating of 82.9 dBA make this drill significantly quieter than its predecessor — which makes for a quieter working environment with less neighborhood disturbance and easier communication among the crew. The D40x55 S3 features a carriage speed of 188 ft. per minute (57.3 m/min) — which is 7 percent faster than its predecessor — helping contractors install

more linear ft. per day. Versatility is at the heart of the D40x55 S3, allowing contractors to select the ideal drill configuration for the specific need. They can choose from three drill rod options: 10 ft. (3 m) rod in 2.38 in. (6 cm) or 2.63 in. (6.7 cm) diameters and 15 ft. (4.6 m) rod with a 2.63 in. (6.7 cm) diameter. A 140-hp (104 kW), liquid-cooled, tur-

bocharged diesel John Deere 4045 4.5L Tier IV-compliant engine delivers robust power, while a redesigned excavator-style climatecontrolled cab allows operators better visibility, more legroom and greater comfort in unfavorable climate conditions. A common control system benefits drill operators with the ability to operate a variety of Vermeer drills and lessens the time needed for training. This includes a digital display, improved onboard diagnostics and common joystick controls. The system design uses a power distribution module that reduces the amount of wiring and fuses for greater reliability. A DigiTrak Aurora interactive, full-color touch-screen display delivers real-time, easy-to-view location information, bore plans; and more to help increase operator productivity. An onboard self-diagnostic system empowers contractors to make machine adjustments when required and helps to maximize productivity. The InSite Fleet remote monitoring system comes standard on the D40x55 S3 and is available now. For more information, visit www.vermeer.com.

Huntsville Passed Mobile in 2010 to Become Second Largest Metro in Ala. HUNTSVILLE from page 1

cautious about the prediction. “Bigger is not always better,” said Battle. “No one is in a race to be the biggest city in Alabama. Our challenge is to continue growing and still maintain the high quality of life we have.” And Birmingham disagrees with the Huntsville projections. John Colon, director of community development of Birmingham, said the Huntsville planners didn’t appear to take into account the growth Birmingham has seen in recent years. “This Renaissance is evidenced by the 1,500 new housing units currently under construction as well as those that have already been completed just this year,” wrote Colon. The Huntsville projections extend patterns of last two decades. That basically means city demographers predict that Huntsville will continue to grow, while the other three cities stay level. It’s a prediction mirrored in county projections by Center for Business and Economic Research at the University of Alabama. The Montgomery Advertiser noted the trend at the release of the 2010 Census, when proclaiming that Montgomery was likely to pass Birmingham as the state’s largest city by 2020. But even then, Montgomery was hearing footsteps: “Fourth-place Huntsville, which saw its population climb by almost 14 percent in the past 10 years, could be fighting for the honor of being the state’s largest city by the 2020 census,” predicted the Montgomery Advertiser in 2011. Montgomery now seems unlikely to pass Birmingham. Montgomery leveled off in 2000 and has lost population since 2010. Mobile more than doubled after World War II, but hasn’t expanded much since 1960. Birmingham peaked around 1960 and has lost about 38 percent, or more than 120,000 residents, since then. To come to their conclusions, Huntsville planners project 29,000 new Huntsville residents in the city limits by 2025. Huntsville demographer Connie Graham said the city growth is driven by “jobs, baby boomers and millennials.” The predictions show Montgomery and Mobile as largely unchanged and Birmingham losing about 5,000 people over the next ten years. But that may not happen. Colon mentions the same interest among millennials in living in an urban center. “Another key indicator which is directly tied to our population is the fact that last year, for the first time in over 50 years, we experienced a growth in population,” wrote Colon. Birmingham predicts its city population is about to grow, wrote Colon, adding: “Based on this, we believe the projections below are inaccurate, but we do wish Huntsville well.” Perhaps the Advertiser summed it up it best in 2011: “Other than bragging rights, what does all this mean?” Being the largest city in the state may be without direct financial benefit. But the claim clearly holds a certain appeal. In 2011, the Montgomery Advertiser said even without any tangible benefit, “it would be nice....” Mobile meanwhile still bills itself on its Web site as the “second largest

city in the state of Alabama.” It’s not. Montgomery passed Mobile at the 2010 Census. But second sounds better than third. In Huntsville, Mayor Battle sounded uninterested in becoming the state’s largest city. He warned: “Cities that rapidly outgrow their infrastructure can quickly harm their quality of life.” Of course, there are many ways to rank Alabama’s most populated areas: By city: 1) Birmingham, 2) Montgomery, 3) Mobile, 4) Huntsville. This is the list Huntsville is predicted to climb quickly in coming years. This is a straightforward count of the number of residents living within the city limits. “Everyone wants to be number one,” said Mayor Battle in Huntsville. “I’d rather be number one in the right things such as low crime, easy commute times and a high quality of life. Do it right — not just do it bigger.” By county: 1) Jefferson, 3) Mobile, 3) Madison, 4) Montgomery. Jefferson remains the state’s most densely populated county and that is unlikely to change. Madison County is projected to pass Mobile County in the next 15 to 20 years to become the second largest county in Alabama. That projection comes from the Center for Business and Economic Research at the University of Alabama. Jefferson County is projected to grow by just 3 percent by 2040 to reach 670,000 residents. Mobile County is projected to grow by 6 percent and Montgomery County by 9 percent. But the Center at the University of Alabama also forecasts continued rapid growth in the suburbs outside Birmingham, Mobile and Huntsville. Their projections show Shelby, St. Clair, Baldwin and Limestone each growing by more than half over the coming 25 years. Lee County, home to Auburn, also is expected to grow by more than half. By metro: 1) Birmingham, 2) Huntsville, 3) Mobile, 4) Montgomery. Birmingham’s metro area will remain the largest in Alabama. Birmingham metro spans seven counties to encompass nearly 1.2 million people. No other metro is close in terms of population or land area. Metro areas are defined by the federal government and include counties with a high percentage of people who commute to the city center for work. Huntsville passed Mobile in 2010 to become the second largest metro in the state. Huntsville’s metro area includes Madison and Limestone counties. Decatur on the other side of the river has its own metro area. Metro Mobile is just Mobile County. Fast-growing Baldwin County across the bay also has its own metro designation. The Montgomery metro spans five counties but has still fewer people. Montgomery metro is projected to pass Mobile metro by 2040.

No-Hassle Hose on Vacuum Excavator Saves Time, Energy This fall McLaughlin will introduce the next generation of its most popular vacuum excavator with an update that includes a nohassle hose design that will help save crews time and energy, according to the company. The VX50 Gen 3 vacuum excavator features a hose that can hang on the side of the machine as potholing crews move from hole to hole. Current designs on the market require a hose to either be coiled into place or disconnected and put away. “Hose handling is the top nonvalue-added activity of a potholing crew,” said Jeff Wage, McLaughlin vice president. “With the VX50 Gen 3, an operator simply hangs the hose on the side of the machine, moves to the next pothole location and pulls the hose off when he’s ready to work again. It makes crews much more productive by reducing the time and energy spent handling the hose.” The VX50 Gen 3 vacuum excavator is ideal for potholing jobs by utility contractors. It features spoil

tank capacities of 500 and 800 gal. (1,892.7 and 3,028.3 L). The vacuum hose is 4 in. (10.2 cm) in diameter and has a flow rating of 1,025 cfm (29 cu m/min) at 15 in. (38.1 cm) of mercury. The third-generation vacuum excavator is powered by a 49-hp

(36.5 kW) Kubota Tier IV final engine with a common-rail fuel injection system. The VX50 Gen 3 includes two features McLaughlin customers have come to rely on. One is a 3stage cyclonic filtration system that allows for both wet and dry vacu-

um excavation while prolonging filter life and helping to keep maintenance costs low. The other is the McLaughlin cam-over hydraulic rear door. It provides a 360-degree positive seal, even under reverse pressure, without additional clamping

requirements to keep fluids securely in the debris tank. No components are inside the tank, so maintenance is external. Automatic belt tensioners on the blower and the water pump help to make service simpler and faster. It also has an in-tank washdown system that makes it easier to remove debris and saves on tank cleanup time, according to the company. “The VX50 Gen 3 vacuum excavator was designed with the operator in mind,” Wage said. “The existing VX50 series is a great product, but the new generation shows we want to continuously make it the best, most efficient vacuum excavator for our customers.” The VX50 Gen 3 vacuum excavator will be available through the Vermeer global dealer network.

$109.3 Million…

Ritchie Bros. Reports 2015 Third Quarter Results Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers Incorporated reports results for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2015. During the quarter, the company generated $109.3 million of revenue, a 7 percent increase compared to revenue of $102.2 million in the third quarter last year, and net earnings of $20.3 million, a 118 percent increase compared to $9.3 million and a 40 percent increase compared to adjusted net earnings of $14.5 million in the third quarter last year. Diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) were $0.19, a 118 percent increase compared to diluted EPS of $0.09, and a 41 percent increase compared to diluted adjusted EPS of $0.13 in the same quarter last year. “Our teams continued to focus on driving revenue growth, as demonstrated by our third quarter results, with meaningful improvement in the performance of our underwritten business and continued growth of fee-based revenue. We achieved 28 percent revenue growth from our U.S. operations, and saw strong local currency contributions from Canada, Australia and the Middle East,” said Ravi Saligram, CEO of Ritchie Bros. “We’re also pleased to announce that we’ve acquired a 75 percent stake in Xcira LLC, a leader in simulcast auction technology. Xcira’s market leading platform and approach to online auction innovations were key factors that led to this acquisition. The strength of their systems was, and continues to be, an important contributor to Ritchie Bros.’ success. In fact, nearly $1.7 billion of equipment and other assets sold through Ritchie Bros. auctions during 2014 transacted on Xcira’s ‘Online Ringman’ software platform.” Income Statement Scorecard Analysis for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2015 Gross Auction Proceeds (“GAP”) were $894.5 million for the third quarter of 2015, a quarterly record and a 1 percent increase compared to the third quarter of 2014. EquipmentOne, the compa-

ny’s online equipment marketplace, contributed $30.4 million of gross transaction value (“GTV”) to GAP in the third quarter of 2015 compared to $23.2 million in the third quarter of 2014. GAP for the third quarter of 2015 would have been $75.6 million higher, or an additional 8.4 percent increase, if foreign exchange rates had remained consistent with those in the same period last year. This adverse effect on GAP is primarily due to the declining value of the Canadian dollar and the Euro relative to the U.S. dollar. Revenue grew 7 percent during the third quarter of 2015 to $109.3 million, compared to $102.2 million in the third quarter of 2014, as a result of the record GAP and higher revenue rate achieved in the third quarter this year. Revenue would have been $9.2 million higher, or an additional 8.4 percent increase, if foreign exchange rates had remained consistent with those in the same period last year. The revenue rate was 12.22 percent in the third quarter of 2015, compared to 11.53 percent in the third quarter of 2014. The increase in the revenue rate is primarily due to the performance of the company’s underwritten business. As a percent of total GAP, the volume of underwritten business decreased slightly to 24 percent during the third quarter of 2015 compared to 30 percent for the same period in 2014. Operating income grew 47 percent during the third quarter of 2015 to $29.1 million, compared to $19.8 million in the third quarter of 2014. This increase is due to revenue growth combined with a decrease in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses. Earnings from operations would have been $0.8 million higher, or an additional 2.7 percent increase, if foreign exchange rates had remained consistent with those in the same period last year. Operating income margin was 26.6 percent for the third quarter of 2015, 724 basis points higher than 19.4 percent for the same period last year, primarily due to revenues

increasing and SG&A expenses decreasing. Diluted adjusted EPS for the third quarter of 2015 was $0.19 per diluted share, a 41 percent increase compared to the third quarter of 2014. There were no adjusting items in the third quarter of 2015. The increase was driven by an increase in GAP and revenue combined with a decrease in SG&A expenses, partially offset by a decrease in other income items during the third quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. Income Statement Scorecard Analysis for the Nine Months Ended Sept. 30, 2015 GAP was $3.1 billion for the first nine months of 2015, a first nine months record and a 5 percent increase compared to the first nine months of 2014. EquipmentOne, the company’s online equipment marketplace, contributed $83.9 million of GTV to GAP in the first nine months of 2015 compared to $71.2 million in the same period in 2014. GAP for the first nine months of 2015 would have been $227.2 million higher, or an additional 7.3 percent increase, if foreign exchange rates had remained consistent with those in the same period last year. This adverse effect on GAP is primarily due to the declining value of the Canadian dollar and the Euro relative to the U.S. dollar. Revenue grew 11 percent during the first nine months of 2015 to $380.4 million, compared to $342.6 million in the first nine months of 2014, as a result of the record GAP and higher revenue rate achieved during the same period this year. Revenue would have been $28.6 million higher, or an additional 7.5 percent increase, if foreign exchange rates had remained consistent with those in the same period last year. The revenue rate was 12.22 percent in the first nine months of 2015, compared to 11.53 percent in the first nine months of 2014. The increase in the revenue rate is pri-

marily due to the performance of the company’s underwritten business, which is comprised of guarantee and inventory contracts, consistent with the Company’s strategic focus on this business. The volume of underwritten business during the first nine months of 2015 remained consistent with the first nine months of 2014, at 29 percent. Operating income grew 36 percent during the first nine months of 2015 to $121.2 million, compared to $89.3 million in the first nine months of 2014. This increase is due to revenue growth significantly outpacing the growth of SG&A expenses. Earnings from operations would have been $6.4 million higher, or an additional 5.2 percent increase, if foreign exchange rates had remained consistent with those in the same period last year. Operating income margin was 31.9 percent for the first nine months of 2015, 581 basis points higher than 26.1 percent for the same period last year, primarily due to revenues increasing at a rate higher than SG&A expenses. Diluted adjusted EPS for the first nine months of 2015 was $0.84 per diluted share, a 34 percent increase compared to the first nine months of 2014. There were no adjusting items in the first nine months of 2015. The increase was driven by an increase in GAP, revenue and other income items, partially offset by an increase in SG&A expenses during the first nine months of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. Balance Sheet Scorecard Analysis as at and for the 12 Months Ended Sept. 30, 2015 Operating free cash flow increased 75 percent to $250.6 million during the 12 months ended Sept. 30, 2015, compared to $142.8 million during the 12 months ended Sept. 30, 2014. This increase is the result of more cash generated by operating activities and less capital spending during the 12 months ended Sept. 30, 2015, compared to the same period

ended in 2014. Working capital intensity was minus 18.8 percent for the 12 months ended Sept. 30, 2015, an improvement of 1166 basis points from minus 7.1 percent for the 12 months ended Sept. 30, 2014. This improvement in working capital intensity is the result of increased revenues and decreased quick operating working capital during the 12 months ended Sept. 30, 2015, compared to the same period ended in 2014. The decrease in quick operating working capital is primarily the result of decreases in advances against auction contracts, inventory, and trade and other receivable balances. Significant fluctuations in working capital intensity are primarily the result of the timing and size of auctions just prior to each period end. The fact that the Company’s working capital intensity is negative highlights the minimal amount of working capital required to run the business. CAPEX intensity was 4.2 percent for the 12 months ended Sept. 30, 2015, a decrease of 40 basis points from 4.6 percent for the 12 months ended Sept. 30, 2014. This 9 percent decrease is due primarily to an increase in revenues by $45.0 million, or 9 percent, during the 12 months ended Sept. 30, 2015, compared to the same period ended in 2014. Net capital spending during the 12 months ended Sept. 30, 2015, remained consistent with the comparative period as a result of disciplined capital spending. Return on net assets (“RONA”) for the 12 months ended Sept. 30, 2015, was 26.5 percent, an increase of 1,065 basis points compared to 15.9 percent for the 12 months ended Sept. 30, 2014. This increase was the result of an increase in net operating profit after tax combined with a decrease in adjusted net assets. The decrease in adjusted net assets was driven by an increase in cash and cash equivalents and current liabilities, as well as foreign exchange effects on non-U.S. dollar denomisee RESULTS page 104

Danella Companies Adopts SmartDrive Safety Program SmartDrive Systems, a leader in driving performance solutions that reduce collisions and improve fuel efficiency, announced that Danella Companies Inc., a leader in construction services for the utility industry, has implemented SmartDrive’s video-based safety program across its fleet of nearly 200 vehicles. In the first three months following adoption, Danella saw critical improvements in key driver safety indicators, including a 79 percent increase in driver seatbelt usage, 40 percent reduction in speeding, 33 percent drop in unsafe following and a 29 percent decrease in handheld device usage. Overall, the fleet experienced a 79 percent improvement in its safety score complemented by a reduction in litigation expenses, better driver retention and greater operational efficiency, according to the company. Danella Companies is a Pennsylvaniabased provider of construction services to a broad range of utility and railroad customers. In its New York and Connecticut locations, the company operates a fleet of just under 200 vehicles, ranging from small pick-up trucks, cars and SUVs to tractor trailers, step vans, and dump, box and bucket trucks. Company leadership advocated for the adoption of SmartDrive’s video-

“The Danella team is a stellar example of how to maximize the full value of the SmartDrive solution...” Steve Mitgang SmartDrive

based technology to maximize safety, mitigate litigation risks and minimize accidentrelated financial losses. “Having long promoted a culture of safety at Danella, our deployment of SmartDrive’s platform further enhances and extends the safety programs we already had in place, while also exonerating drivers and positively impacting the bottom line. Additionally, friendly internal competition among our drivers to achieve the best safety scores are testament to their acceptance of the program and commitment to continuous improvement,” said Dave Pancoast, safety director at Danella. “Interestingly, we’ve found that the biggest benefit of the SmartDrive system is the driver education that comes with it — SmartDrive serves up the right business intelligence insights we

need to guide our proactive and constructive coaching.” Like other commercial fleets, Danella faces a number of issues affecting its bottom line — rising insurance premiums, growing expenses associated with claims, compliance with strict and complex safety regulations, and maximizing asset and driver utilization. The company’s decision to equip every vehicle in its fleet — from those driven by construction project managers to those driven by heavy equipment operators — has led to significant safety enhancements, which, in turn, have resulted in fewer collisions, reduced litigation costs and enhanced profitability. “Danella’s results — including bettering its safety score by nearly 80 percent — speak for themselves. The company has

done an outstanding job, effectively and proactively engaging drivers to ensure their buy-in and enthusiasm for the SmartDrive program and the resulting ongoing safety enhancements,” said Steve Mitgang, CEO of SmartDrive. “The Danella team is a stellar example of how to maximize the full value of the SmartDrive solution, from video data capture, to expert risk analysis and scoring, driver involvement, coaching and continuous program refinement.” SmartDrive is a video-based safety program that identifies unsafe driving with an extensible platform, integrating video, vehicle data, audio and driving data for a unified and comprehensive view of risk. The program automatically offloads footage for expert review and analysis, and prioritization for coaching. This saves fleets time and resources, which can then be focused on delivering increased value to their customers through on-time delivery, accuracy and better service.

Ritchie Bros. Reports Seven Percent Increase Over Last Year RESULTS from page 100

nated assets. The increase in current liabilities is primarily due to the reclassification from non-current to current borrowings of a Canadian dollar 60 million term loan in the second quarter of 2015.
