Construction Firms Add Jobs in 41 States Over Year ARTBA Warns DOT of Job Cost Increases Even as construction firms added jobs in 41 states between March 2014 and March 2015, construction employment declined in 29 states and the District of Columbia between February and March, according to an analysis of Labor Department data by the Associated General Contractors of America. Association officials cautioned that ongoing D.C. gridlock over how to pay for needed infrastructure improvements and declining demand for oil-related projects likely contributed to so many states shedding construction jobs in March. "While the year-over-year data remains relatively positive, it is troubling to see so many states losing con-

struction jobs during the past month," said Ken Simonson, the association's chief economist. "As energy firms cancel or delay projects and Congressional action on transportation and other infrastructure measures remains stalled, many construction firms appear to be reducing headcount, at least temporarily." California added more new construction jobs (46,300 jobs, 6.9 percent) between March 2014 and March 2015 than any other state. Other states adding a high number of new construction jobs for the past 12 months included Texas (39,300 jobs, 6.2 percent), Florida (37,400 jobs, 9.7 percent), see EMPLOYMENT page 56

A U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) pilot program that would allow state and local transportation agencies to utilize local hiring preferences on federal-aid highway and transit projects will increase costs, decrease competition, and could actually result in less frequent hiring of minorities and women, according to the American Road and Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA). U.S. Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx announced the one-year pilot program on March 3. The agency said allowing the local preferences will enable “disadvantaged workers in the communities where projects are located to benefit from the economic opportunities such projects represent.” State or local transportation agencies would need to initiate a hiring preference and seek approval from see ARTBA page 54

Hawaii Considers Changing Gas Tax as Funds Decline By Cathy Bussewitz ASSOCIATED PRESS

HONOLULU (AP) Hawaii lawmakers are pushing a plan that could increase the fuel taxes that drivers pay at the pump. The proposal comes as states throughout the nation are dealing with crumbling roads and infrastructure at the same time that federal funds for highways are declining. Nationwide, the total amount of money available to states from the Federal Highway Trust Fund has declined 3.5 percent during the five-year period that ended in 2013, according to an analysis by The Associated Press. In Hawaii, per capita spending of those federal dollars declined 1.6 percent during that period of time. But while the funds are deteriorating, so are the roads. And the cost to fix them is mounting. “It’s not only disturbing, but it’s downright irresponsible,’’ said Rep. Matthew Lopresti, D-Ewa Beach, vice chairman of the House Committee on Transportation. “States are going to have to step in to cover the gap ... we have a crumbling infrastructure in this country, and I know it’s not just in Hawaii, it’s all across the nation.’’ A proposal in the Hawaii House of

“Due to the limitation of funding, the overall priority for the department is to improve safety and preserve the system of roads and bridges that we currently have.’’ Tim Sakahara Hawaii Department of Transportation

Representatives seeks to fill some of that gap by shifting the way the fuel tax is calculated. The tax is currently set up to draw down 17 cents for each gallon of regular fuel sold. The bill would shift the emphasis away from the amount of fuel sold and instead focus on the price of the fuel — a significant distinction in the age of fuel-efficient cars, when individuals’ consumption levels may be declining. The proposal states that the fuel tax would be either 17 cents per gallon or an unspecified percentage of the wholesale price, whichever is greater. It passed out of the House Committee on Finance, with the percentage left blank. Rep. Kyle Yamashita, who introduced the bill, didn’t return phone calls for comment.

“People who voted for it were voting for a blank check,’’ said Rep. Gene Ward, RHawaii Kai, the only member of the House Finance Committee to vote against the proposal. “We keep talking about helping the middle class ... and we’re going to stick them with another fuel tax. It’s unfair.’’ Aloha Petroleum Ltd. was among the companies that opposed the bill, saying they’re against “any attempt to increase taxes because they are ultimately passed on to consumers.’’ The State Department of Transportation said in written testimony that it appreciates the intent of the bill, but that the proposed solution would create confusion for taxpayers and administrative challenges.

Meanwhile, the Department plans to increase its budget for special maintenance projects by $70.9 million in both fiscal years 2016 and 2017, according to Gov. David Ige’s budget proposal. The majority of those maintenance funds are going to be used for road resurfacing projects, minor bridge repairs and major tree trimming, said Tim Sakahara, spokesman of the Department of Transportation, in an email. But there won’t be money left over to work on alleviating Hawaii’s traffic problems — which are often cited as among the worst in the nation. “Due to the limitation of funding, the overall priority for the department is to improve safety and preserve the system of roads and bridges that we currently have,’’ Sakahara said. “As such, we are prioritizing roadway and bridge improvement projects over capacity and congestion relief moving forward.’’ A less-bumpy ride would be welcome relief to many Hawaii drivers. “It’s shocking how bad some of the roads are here,’’ Lopresti said.

Craig Taylor Equipment Company

AED Chairman Calls on Congress to Work on Multiyear Highway Bill “Federal road and bridge spending creates about $2.4 billion in demand for construction machinery each year and directly supports about 4,000 equipment dealership jobs nationwide,” he said. “All that economic activity — and the livelihoods of those 4,000 families — is in jeopardy as Congress once again waits until the last minute to kick the can down the road.” Shilling said that AED members have one message for lawmakers: “You were sent here to govern, so get to work! Put aside your partisan differences, roll up your sleeves, compromise, fix the HTF, and pass a fully funded, long-term highway bill. “The men and women of the construction industry are standing by to build the roads, bridges and transit systems America will need to compete and prosper in the 21st century,” he continued. “But Congress needs to do its job before we can do ours.” Shilling pledged that he and his equipment industry colleagues would keep up the political pressure “until Congress gets the job done.” For more information, visit www.aednet.org.

When it comes to infrastructure, Washington, D.C., is failing the American people, said AED Chairman Don Shilling at a Capitol Hill press conference today. Shilling is president of General Equipment & Supplies, a heavy construction equipment dealership based in Fargo, N.D. The event was organized by Senate Environment & Public Works (EPW) Chairman James Inhofe (R-Okla.) and Ranking Member Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) to remind their congressional colleagues that authorization for federal highway spending expires at the end of May and that the Highway Trust Fund (HTF) will run out of money late this summer. With the clock running down, Congress has made little progress on how to pay for a new multiyear bill and restore the HTF’s long-term solvency. “It’s difficult to put into words just how frustrated AED’s members are with Washington,” Shilling said. “Watching from a distance, there seems to be unlimited time for partisan bickering but not enough time to do the people’s work.” Shilling thanked Inhofe and Boxer, saying they were rare exceptions who were working hard and collaborating across party lines to keep Congress focused on the need to fix the HTF. Shilling noted that Congress’ failure to fix the program has real-world economic consequences.

Trophy Tractor Hosts Traditional Southern Crawfish Boil

It’s important to get the right mixture of ingredients. Ron Julian (far L) and Jeff Biggs (far R) of 4X Construction in Mansfield, Texas, teach Caleb and his mom, Erin Dupee, of REMU USA Inc. in Old Orchard, Maine, the art of eating crawfish.

etween 40 to 50 Trophy Tractor customers met at its location in Grand Prairie, Texas, to enjoy a traditional Southern Crawfish Boil. Trophy had the Arrington Crawfish Boil catered by Chris and Kim Arrington as well as Randy Hubbard. The crawfish boil was acquired at a charity auction for the purpose of entertaining their customers. The auction monies were donated to Irving Cares out of Irving, Texas. Along with the 70 lbs. of fresh crawfish there were copious amounts of shrimp, boudin sausage, new potatoes and corn on the cob — a Southern tradition. Included were soft drinks and water as well as various entertainment beverages.

Dana (L) and Lori Nollette of HOLT CAT in Irving, Texas, get a great start to their weekend with a big tray of crawfish.

Crockett Boney (far L) and his dad, Mike Boney of Jet Underground Utilities in Balch Springs, Texas, have the nice company of Candace Gillespie while making their way through the crawfish.

Steve Martin (C), Valley Transportation in Grand Meadow, Minn., enjoys the company of Charla Cabe and Daryl Crear of Rumpke Recycling Service in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The crawfish put up a good fight, but to no avail in the end.

Workforce Warrior 2015 AED Chairman Don Shilling Is Future-Focused and Passionate About Plugging the Next Generation Into the Industry, The Association and His Own Business. By Kim Phelan SPECIAL TO CEG

Even though Don Shilling has a long and active history with AED, he’s keenly focused on the future of both the industry and the association. One of his top priorities as 2015 Chairman is to continue building the number of AEDaccredited technical school relationships through the United States and harnessing the power of The AED Foundation to attract young people to careers in equipment distribution. “Dealers have a tendency to focus on sales. In my opinion, with equipment getting more sophisticated, we have to have the service capability or we will never get the second sale, and price will not dictate whether or not you get deals,” said Shilling, who is president of Fargo, N.D.-based General Equipment & Supplies. “We need to have a small army of fresh faces coming through those [school] programs or our future will not handle growth — and will stagnate.” It’s more than words — he hired a full-time recruiter at his dealership; and both he and members of his staff serve on advisory boards at three schools near their business, too. “Not every dealer can afford a recruiter, but every dealer can and should afford the time to connect with the schools that give us those fresh faces,” he added. Keeping the workforce development pot well stirred has been his passion for a while. He’d been an employee-education advocate at his company for many years, but Shilling’s focus on developing new industry talent started heating up in 2002 when he joined The Foundation Board, following service on the AED Board back in the mid-’90s. He said he had always assumed the primary work of The Foundation was solely centered around training, but after a few meetings he began to see how important workforce is, as well. He ended up leading The Foundation

as its Chairman from 2005 to 2007. As Shilling takes the helm as AED 2015 Chairman, he is the first to have chaired The Foundation prior to chairing the association. Other Work to Be Done As Chairman, Shilling recognizes the need to keep public policy advocacy on the front burner, too, and he’s ready to step out of his “comfort zone...working on workforce development,” and do whatever it takes to keep the pressure on Congress to act on AED’s top legislative priorities, including long-term highway funding, water infrastructure, simplifying the tax code, and reducing excessive and unnecessary regulations. “To be effective in workforce and political advocacy, we need a strong AED,” he said. “We are committed to growing our membership — we intend to do that by retaining current members and demonstrating the value of AED.” That includes drawing in the next generation of lead-

ers. He added, “My company is managed by people under 40. AED needs participation of young people under 40, as well. We need to be that resource young people look to, as well as the experienced managers. Fresh ideas and the energy

Don Shilling is AED 2015 chairman.

of the young people.” He never strays far from his focus on the future — which, off course, belongs to the young. Shilling reflects on his first AED convention in 1981. “I was in awe. I was 30 years old and meeting dealer principals twice my age, and interesting owners and managers.” He’s been to every annual Summit since, and he says, “I still enjoy the networking and rubbing elbows with some of the most interesting people in the industry.” A Good Future Takes Planning Today at 63, he’s all about pumping the energy and enthusiasm of young minds into the industry through workforce programs, into AED through new Future Leaders engagement, and — living proof of his future-focus — he keeps it real right at his own company with a smoothrunning succession plan that has moved a group of under-40 guys into ownership, including Shilling’s son Jonathan.

Whereas some owners procrastinate succession planning, Shilling and his partner Jerry Kern turned their attention to creating a strong plan a few years ago, knowing it would take time to enable their successors to buy them out. The two had acquired the company from its third and senior owner, Orvis Stockstad in 2000, and over the course of several years enjoyed growth that ultimately doubled the size of General Equipment & Supplies. “It became obvious to Jerry and me that if we were going to pass the business on, whether to key employees or family members, that we were going to have to start a long ways in advance — otherwise we were going to have to say, ‘Forget it,’ and sell to a third party conglomerate with enough cash to pay for it, “ Shilling explained. “We didn’t want the company to change a great deal from what we had. A lot of dealers probably have the same concerns,” he added. “After we’ve grown this thing it’s like your child. We don’t like the idea of selling to somebody who’s going to make wholesale changes, fire a bunch of people, and run it totally differently.” So for two years they worked with a consultant and set in motion a 12-year buyout process whereby the senior owners have sold stock to the young team, who are making payments back to Shilling and Kern in semi-annual installments. When they do retire in a couple of years, the pair will remain on the board and basically “kind of check on things and then pick up a check and go home,” said Shilling. “It’s like a weight’s off our shoulders now, because we know what’s going to happen and everything is running pretty close to how we had hoped. It’s a giant relief.” Living Values Shilling’s dad was a contractor who had worked in construction at the end of the Depression, then in the Army Corp of Engineers during World War II, and he was part of the post-war boom.

When a 5,000-Acre Test Site Shuts Down, What’s Next? By Paul Posel SPECIAL TO CEG

News headlines such as “GM to Close Proving Grounds” and “GM Site Reborn as Housing Development” tell only part of the story. The people of General Motors and their test vehicles are gone, relocated farther south in Arizona. What remained after their departure — 60 buildings, 74 mi. of test track and the huge water tower — has disappeared, too. What happened? Hank Manning knows.

Fitted with a 7,500-lb. hydraulic breaker, the excavator was used in the demolition of a concrete foundation for test equipment and a basement. It also assisted in pulling down the iconic water tower and then breaking up the foundation footings. During much of the time the equipment was working at the proving grounds, Manning was using some of the same heavy equipment on other projects as well. Zain Resources’s first job was environmental reclamation at the Asarco Ray mine, one of the largest open copper mines in Arizona. The company had to clean up containment ponds and make them environmentally sound for water. It involved a great deal of specialty piping and excavation. One wheel loader was used to screen rock, grade and compact processed material into water drainage fields, and load and unload trucks and move concrete highway barriers. Two excavators excelled at rip-rap mining and trench excavations. A third excavator was paired with a 7,500-lb. (3,402 kg) hydraulic breaker to cut a trench in a rock ledge. “This was our first experience with Doosan equipment and it was a good one,” Manning said. “My operators — a seasoned and critical group — are now asking for the Doosan machines instead of our other equipment; very impressive products.” As Manning looks to the future, he sees plenty of opportunity helping government agencies and companies deal with environmental issues. “After successfully handling the diverse and very complicated proving grounds project and working in tough mining conditions, I think our two firms are uniquely qualified to continue to do well in these areas, and others as well,” he said. “Our experience, employees and equipment have us well positioned for the future.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Federal Funding in Short Supply for AGC Honors Three Rural Water Projects in New Mexico Schools With Top By Susan Montoya Bryan ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) A pipeline project intended to bring billions of gallons of water a year to a drought-stricken section of eastern New Mexico represents a lifeline to parched communities that are quickly running out of water. The lifeline, however, might not reach the region for more than a decade, even though officials say some areas don’t have that long before wells dry up. The slow pace of construction in what would be the state’s most expensive infrastructure project to date underscores the challenges faced by a number of states eyeing such projects. During the widespread drought, officials are struggling to finish large-scale water infrastructure projects while populations are growing, drinking water resources are dwindling, and federal dollars are diminishing. The federal government is responsible for paying about $3 billion to complete several rural water projects around the country. The amount — expected to grow by the time the work is done — represents a fraction of the more than $600 billion needed to address the nation’s water and wastewater needs over the next 20 years. That has left states and local water authorities scrambling to fill the financial void. Of the many pipeline proposals in the West, one calls for moving water from four remote valleys in eastern Nevada to Las Vegas to reduce the region’s reliance on the Colorado River. Others call for piping water from Lake Powell to southeastern Utah and for taking water from Wyoming across Colorado’s Front Range and on to Denver. In New Mexico, officials are desperate to head off the shrinking of the Ogallala aquifer, an underground supply of water that stretches through eight states and is being rapidly depleted along the Texas-New Mexico border. “People are going to have to understand that in the West, that old saying ‘whiskey is for drinking, water is for fighting’ — that’s where we are right now,’’ said Gayla Brumfield, chairwoman of the Eastern New Mexico

Water Utility Authority. Some studies show pockets of eastern New Mexico might have less than a decade before wells run dry. Others could have 40 years, but all signs point to demand outpacing supply as surface and groundwater sources dwindle across the West. The pipeline would funnel more than 5.3 billion gallons of water each year from the Ute Reservoir south to Clovis, Portales, Cannon Air Force Base and other small communities. It includes a $19 million intake system at the reservoir, pump stations and more than 150 mi. of pipe that will serve about 70,000 people. The price for the Ute project has ballooned to more than $550 million, and the federal Bureau of Reclamation acknowledges it could end up costing $750 million. The lure for communities to pursue these costly infrastructure projects has been the promise of federal funding, said Denise Fort, a water law expert and professor at the University of New Mexico. “It’s like a shiny red apple and that can be hard to turn down,’’ she said. Critics say the Ute project will do little to solve the region’s drinking water woes and has only given way to bigger questions about the benefits and sustainability of high-dollar rural water projects that depend on shrinking rivers, reservoirs and aquifers. Funding for rural projects managed by the Bureau of Reclamation has been shrinking, forcing Brumfield and others to make regular trips to Washington, D.C., to fight for whatever money is left. It’s no different for Red Arndt, chairman of the Lewis and Clark Regional Water System. That $570 million project is designed to supply drinking water to 300,000 people in more than a dozen cities in South Dakota, Minnesota and Iowa. The states and local water authorities have contributed their share of close to $154 million. Some customers are getting water now, but the pipeline comes to a dead end in a field near the Minnesota border. Arndt said the Obama administration talks about improving the nation’s infrastructure and boosting economic development but hasn’t followed through with any meaningful invest-

ment. If a business comes to the area, local leaders must ask how much water they’re going to use. If it’s too much, Arndt said the businesses are told to move on. “They want infrastructure and they want economic growth and what’s more important than anything? Water. If you don’t have water, you don’t have growth of anything,’’ he said. In January, Vice President Joe Biden announced steps the administration would take to attract private investment. He told reporters: “It’s one of the hardest things to deal with because it costs so much money, and it is not anything that the people can see.’’ The federal Bureau of Reclamation has about $36 million for rural water projects for the next fiscal year. In its most recent analysis, the agency estimates the projects could be completed by 2029 with a total federal investment of about $3 billion. The federal government is obligated to pay for three-quarters of the Ute pipeline. For the amount of water being moved and the population served, the Natural Resources Defense Council estimates it’s one of the most expensive projects in the West. Critics question whether it’s worth the effort given the cost and the uncertain supply of water. They cite the situation facing the $390 million San Juan-Chama Project, designed decades ago and completed in 2008 to funnel extra water through the Rio Grande Valley for Albuquerque and Santa Fe to keep from sucking local aquifers dry. Due to years of drought, this is the first year the project will see a shortage of water. Those who live near Ute Reservoir fear a similar situation and see the project as a boondoggle. The town of Logan, for example, lives and dies by the reservoir, and persistent drought has reduced its levels. “It seems like there is just such tunnel vision in Portales and Clovis,’’ said Warren Frost, an attorney for the village who also owns property near the lake. “They’re hell-bent to do this project regardless of whether it makes sense and I don’t understand that.’’

Chapter Awards

California State University-Chico, Boise State University and Oregon Institute of Technology are home to the nation’s top collegiate construction associations this year, according to an analysis of award applications conducted by the Associated General Contractors of America. As a result, the three student groups each received the association’s Outstanding Student Chapter award. “These chapters completed projects that will help people and improve communities, and in the process they gained new skills and experience that will strengthen our industry for years to come,” said Chuck Greco, the association’s president and chairman of Houston, Texas-based Linbeck Group. “These students represent the next generation of construction industry leaders, and based on their accomplishments the future looks very promising.” Greco noted that the California State University, Chico AGC Student Chapter was selected as the top student group, largely for its work building the “Ann and Emmett Skinner Transitional Living Center” for the Salvation Army. The project required vigorous design, pre-planning coordination and pre-construction to complete the build in the 10 days the chapter allotted. In just eight days, the team was able to build two 1,600 square-foot duplex units each with four units that had two bedrooms and one bathroom. Due to their accomplishments, the student chapter received $1,500 from the national association to help finance their operations. Boise State University Construction Management Association was selected as the second-best student group due to its work reconstructing the guard tower that once sat at the entrance to the Minidoka National Monument near Jerome, Idaho. The student chapter brought together many local organizations to reconstruct the tower as historically accurate as possible using all available historic photos. As a result, the group was awarded $750 from the association. Oregon Institute of Technology, AGC Student Chapter was named the nation’s third-best student construction group for its work designing and building three greenhouses for Klamath Tribal Health and Family Services. The purpose of this project was to assist in a USDA-funded research project to determine whether a greenhouse maintained within a community would produce more crops than a greenhouse maintained by an individual. The association provided the chapter with $400. A panel of six judges representing a cross-section of the construction industry evaluated the applications for this year’s Student Chapter Awards contest. School groups were rated based on their accomplishments during the 2013-2014 school year. There are approximately 200 university-level student construction groups nationwide.

Don Shilling Keenly Turns Focus to Future of Industry WORKFORCE from page 12

model, Don says he learned the value of being conservative with resources and money, a strong work ethic, as well as an attitude that dares your competitor by doing the job faster, safer, cheaper and better. Construction is a different brand of brutal out in the Rough Riders state — with maybe seven or eight months of good weather, deadlines get intense and contractors work holidays, weekends, and two shifts to meet promised completion dates. As a kid watching dad under pressure, he saw that “when something broke down, it really threw a monkey wrench into the schedule,” he said. Which actually prepared Don for the empathy needed for his dealership’s customers. When they call up and say, “This loader is down again for the second time this week, this is killing me,” Shilling gets it. His mentality: “We’ll figure out what we can do to cover this for you.” You might say it was that empathy for the customer that triggered GES’ launch of a new holding company across the Canadian border. Over time, GES had developed a strong sales business with Canadian contractors who bought in the U.S. and transported their machines back North. But selling, renting and supporting the customer was getting gnarly — for example sending a technician over the border is an ordeal fraught with technicalities and penalties. In the end, the solution was to set up a

Canadian division, but even that had its challenges. Forming a corporation in Canada requires Canadian citizen ownership, with the exceptions of two provinces, Nova Scotia and Alberta. So in 2008, GES started doing business through its new General Aggregate Equipment Sales ULC based in Nova Scotia. They’re able to do business in

Don and Kay Shilling celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary on Aug. 3, 2014 and took their first cruise, which departed Fort Lauderdale and sailed through the Caribbean to St. Thomas, St. Martin and Puerto Rico.

Winnipeg, Manitoba, and Regina, Saskatchewan, their Canadian target markets, by filing necessary government paperwork. “Our mantra has always been to take care of the customer; that’s the most critical thing that we need to do after he buys something from us,” said Shilling. “So it was important for us, rather than to just broker equipment across the border and be done with it, to be able to support it once it’s over there, selling parts, selling service.” Meanwhile, back in the U.S., GES takes care of customers from facilities in Fargo, Bismarck, Minot and Williston, N.D; Shakopee, Minn., and Sioux Falls, S.D. The company had a lot to celebrate on the occasion of its 30th anniversary last April — employing 250 people, the Komatsu dealership approaches $200 million in annual sales and has $75 million in inventories. It doesn’t take a genius to deduce what keeps the dealer chugging at such a successful pace. “Energy is everything,” said Shilling. North Dakota has long been an agriculture-based economy, which tends to insulate the state from large swings and overly painful cycles. But on top of that, in 2009, while the rest of the U.S. was falling off a seemingly bottomless cliff, North Dakota’s oil boom was just revving up. At the same time, commodsee WORKFORCE page 54

Shilling’s partner, Jerry Kern, is vice president of GES. The two bought out a third, older partner, Orvis Stockstad, in 2000. The three men formed General Equipment & Supplies in 1984 after purchasing the liquidated assets of General Diesel, a former AED member distributorship.

The TC120 provides great flexibility with its hydraulic rotation capabilities and 5 in. (12.7 cm) wide jaws. It exerts 75 tons (68 t) of cutting force at 7,250 psi to easily cut through .5 in. (1.3 cm) thick steel plate.

Brokk Introduces TC120 Tank Cutter Attachment Brokk Inc. releases the TC120 Tank Cutter attachment. Manufactured by their sister company, Darda, this attachment delivers maximum cutting control and ultimate versatility for continuous steel cutting abilities. The 47-by-17-in. (119 by 43 cm) TC120 tank cutter can be used with the Brokk 160, 260 and 400 models. The TC120 brings flexibility to the job site with its hydraulic rotation capabilities and 5 in. (12.7 cm) wide jaws. It exerts 75 tons (68 t) of cutting force at 7,250 psi to easily cut through .5 in. (1.3 cm) thick steel plate. Although this attachment can be used in a variety of applications, such as in salvage yards and balers, it’s commonly employed for cutting steel tanks, pipes and vessels. The most common method of cutting steel, an open-flame torch, poses a fire hazard when cutting into flammable tanks and vessels, and it can raise the risk of exposure to harmful emissions. By using the electric Brokk machine with the TC120 instead, operators reduce the risk of exposure to toxic emissions as well as prevent fires. “This revolutionary product defines versatility. It combines power, efficiency and, above all, safety,” said Mike Martin, Brokk Inc.’s vice president of operations. “Safety is vital. When cutting tanks, you never know what you’ll run into. You don’t have to worry about that with the Brokk machine and TC120 combination. Since

it’s electric, you reduce the risk that comes with cutting into potentially flammable tanks.” In addition to heightened safety, the TC120 improves productivity by continuously cutting steel. “For the first time in the industry, there’s a safe, easy, high-productivity option for cutting steel,” Martin said. “Combining the Brokk machine with the TC120 attachment is like powering a giant scissors — it slices through steel like a scissor to paper.” The TC120 attachment also benefits contractors with its extended reach. Brokk machines’ remote capabilities, coupled with arms that extend as far as 27 ft. (8.2 m), easily reach places others can’t, improving efficiency while minimizing labor costs. Because it’s attached to a Brokk machine, it reduces the risk of injury to laborers by eliminating the need to climb scaffolds and ladders with torches to get to hard-to-reach spaces. The TC120 is one of many Brokk attachments that can be quickly interchanged for greater versatility on a job site. Brokk Inc. supplies a wide range of remote-controlled machinery and attachments, maximizing productivity, improving efficiency and promoting safety.

Fake City for Driverless Cars Could Change Entire Construction Industry By Lori Tobias CEG CORRESPONDENT

For several months, backhoe, dump truck, grader and other heavy equipment operators worked to transform 32 acres at the University of Michigan into what will eventually look like a typical little city. Nothing unusual about that. “This called for extremely conventional techniques,” said David R. Lampe, executive director, strategic communications, University of Michigan Office of Research. “Asphalt roads were constructed the way asphalt roads are constructed. We landscaped so it would have the appropriate amount of straightaways and hills. What’s unusual is not its construction, but what it is being used for.” And that’s something that one day may impact everything we know about urban living, including the way we operate construction equipment. The mini-city at the Ann Arbor campus, dubbed M City, is being designed to test connected and automated vehicle systems — that is, driverless cars that can “communicate” with each other and via the city infrastructure. “Certainly this will change the urban environment and urban planning,” Lampe said. “How you think of laying out a city. I think maybe the tools that make it may be in for the same changes. It can change the way a city works. There’s a whole trend toward better sensing and better automation, and it could well affect the construction see M CITY page 28

The Hlavinka Equipment Company, headquartered in East Bernard, Texas, will be opening a new division, Hlavinka JCB, in Victoria, Texas. Founded in 1939 as Boettcher-Hlavinka Co., the company currently has 156 employees spread throughout eight locations on the Texas coastal plains, including East Bernard, Rosenberg, Nome, El Campo, Bay City, Taft, Victoria and Angleton. Hlavinka’s JCB division in Victoria, Texas, will sell both new and used JCB agricultural and construction equipment, including skid steers and compact track loaders with side-entry door. Hlavinka also will provide equipment rental, service, support and financing. “We’re very excited to begin offering JCB’s quality equipment to our customers,” said Terry Hlavinka, general manager of The Hlavinka Equipment Company. “We’ve always strived to provide quality products and service, and by opening this new JCB

division in Victoria, we’re better positioned to give our customers in both the construction and agricultural equipment markets the solutions they need.” Hlavinka JCB in Victoria will feature JCB-trained construction and ag equipment parts and service personnel, as well as a JCB operations manager. “We’re very pleased to join forces with such a well-established, family-owned organization with a loyal customer base,” said Dan Schmidt, JCB North America’s vice president of agriculture. “Hlavinka’s 75-plus years in the southeastern Texas market shows the company’s dedication to serving the people of this area, and we look forward to a long and prosperous relationship in the years ahead.” For more information, visit www.hlavinka.com or www.jcbna.com.

M City Could Lead to Fewer Traffic Accidents, Fuel Consumption, Pollution M CITY from page 24

industry.” More than 41 companies from around the world, including Hitachi, have signed on with the University to develop the program. The goal is by 2021 to have a working system of connected and automated vehicles that is commercially viable. Sounds futuristic? It is. “It won’t look futuristic, but the transportation is super futuristic,” Lampe said. “First, we build this city. It has everything, park benches, four lanes, two lanes, single lanes, 13 intersections, fire hydrants, store fronts, traffic lights, bus facilities, streetlights, parked cars and pedestrians. You can do things like change the traffic signals, have pedestrians step out in front of cars. It’s controlled systems without the danger. Autonomous vehicles carry all the sensing and decision making equipment on the car itself. In M City, you will be able to leave the driver out and test it because that way it is safe. The car can only respond to what it sees. If it is snowing, it can’t see. If there is a building between you and another car, it can’t see it. With the connected system, if there is something you need to know, your car will know by speaking to each other through infrastructure.” Outside of M City, there are currently about 3,000 cars on the road communicating with each other in Ann Arbor. None, of course, are automated. “We’re going to expand to 20,000 cars all across southeast Michigan,” Lampe said. “It does allow you to test warning the systems. It can warn the driver that there is ice two miles down the road. Warn the driver that someone is passing too closely. Some of these things are being implemented in cars. The connectedness allows you to see beyond what you can see yourself.” M City costs about $6.5 million to build. When the project is complete, it is expected to cost about $100 million. There’s little doubt that the new system of transportation is coming, Lampe said. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has recently ruled that it will come up with regulations governing how such a system would work. But there are many challenges to be overcome first.

M City starts running on July 20, and the $6.5 million facility will be outfitted with 40 building facades, angled intersections, a traffic circle, a bridge, a tunnel, gravel roads, and plenty of obstructed views.

“Our goal is to figure out how to accelerate progress,” Lampe said. “The barriers to success include cyber security, massive data management challenges, the whole business of liability, regulations. There is the whole business of social acceptance. We’re working on all aspects. “If you do this right, you can reduce

traffic accidents by as much as 80 percent, fuel consumption by as much as 80 percent and pollution by as much as 80 percent. It changes the whole notion of car ownership.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG

Takeuchi: The Right Way for Right-of-Way Clearing We’ve all seen our lights flicker on and off, or have come home to see the clocks on the stove flashing twelve o’clock — this is usually due to a short-circuit on a local power line. Trees and vegetation that come in contact with power lines can cause short-circuiting and other problems. If the vegetation remains in contact with the power lines, it can cause much more than just your house lights to blink or clocks to reset; it can trigger blackouts and potentially start fires, especially in dryer regions. Fortunately for us, there are companies like Nordstrom Vegetation LLC of Redmond, Ore. that specialize in right-of-way clearing. Founded in 2010, Nordstrom Vegetation is a small privately owned forest management company of 10 employees. The company works exclusively on power line right-of-way re-clearing, and do so throughout Idaho. An experienced group, safety is always at the forefront of what they do on a daily basis. One little slip or mishap is something they can ill-afford. Whether severe storms cause trees to fall across the lines, or surrounding trees and vegetation grow into the lines, it is important to get out ahead of it. Nordstrom Vegetation is required for trees to have a minimum clearing zone of 30 ft. (9 m) from each side of the power lines they work on. If the tree branches come within the zone, they will be trimmed back to the trunk of the tree. Working with power lines is a dangerous job in itself, but it escalates to an even higher risk when adding in equipment to cut trees down and remove shrubs around the lines. Despite a high-risk job, right-ofway clearing is necessary to eliminate the potential costs that trees or growing vegetation could do to power lines. One of Nordstrom Vegetation’s latest projects required them to do right-of-way clearing of 230 transmission power lines in the mountains of North Idaho. It was a major re-clear throughout the mountain’s 30-mi. (48 km) stretch of transmission power lines. The six-month job required a hand crew, tree climbers, and a Takeuchi TB285 excavator with a Fecon mulching head. They went through and mowed all the brush, and removed

formed so well on the job, that Nordstrom Vegetation ended up buying it. “I am hooked on Takeuchi products, they really do a great job for us,” said Paul Nordstrom, owner of Nordstrom Vegetation Services. “We use our Takeuchi machines exclusively for mulching. They are very reliable and have all the power we need for running our mulching heads. The operator comfort is also very good — overall it’s just a great package.” To further their efficiency on the job, Nordstrom went back on the market for an additional excavator to go along with the TB285. FMI recommended one of the newest Takeuchi models, the TB290, which Nordstrom recently purchased in late October. “In the limited time that we have had the TB290, it has performed very well for us,” said Nordstrom. “I have a very good relationship with Dave [Kopp] and FMI Equipment — they are always there to provide whatever needs that I have. We really listen to their advice, so I did not hesitate when Dave suggested the TB290. We are happy with the results the excavator has given us so far.” With an operating weight of nearly 19,000 lbs. (8,618 kg), the TB290 is the second largest excavator offered in the Takeuchi lineup. It features a powerful and efficient turbocharged, Tier IV Final engine, and offers precise control of the load sensing hydraulic system. The versatile machine also has a digging depth of 15 ft. (4.6 m) and can reach over 24 ft. (7.3 m). Next time a storm blows through your neck of the woods and your lights start to flicker, just remember there are companies out there who are working hard to prevent that from happening. While it can be a treacherous job without the right preventive measures in place, it’s one that saves money. Right-of-way clearing professionals like Nordstrom Vegetation, work to eliminate the threat of trees and vegetation wreaking havoc on power lines and cables. Like the old adage, a little preventive maintenance can go a long way.

“I am hooked on Takeuchi products, they really do a great job for us,” said Paul Nordstrom, owner of Nordstrom Vegetation Services.

any trees or branches from underneath the power lines. They also cleaned all of the big timbers along the edges to create a 100-ft. (30 m) right-of-way. Nordstrom Vegetation has been running Takeuchi equipment for the past three years. Initially, the company went to FMI Equipment in Spokane, Wash., because they needed a compact track loader with a mower attachment. FMI Equipment was the only dealer around the area that provided rentals with the full package. After a recommendation from FMI Equipment’s President Dave Kopp, Nordstrom Vegetation rented the Takeuchi TL10 compact track loader for a project. Following that project, they needed an excavator with a mulching head attached to it and decided on renting the Takeuchi TB285 compact excavator after having success with the TL10. The TB285 per-

shaping. Offered as direct feed or a prescreen version to achieve higher production with dirty feed, it has a hydraulic folding system to convert to direct feed in seconds. It offers a choice of strokes and three liner options for a wide variety of applications and accepts an all-in-feed up to 8 in. (20.5 cm). It is powered by a Scania DC 13 engine. Chieftain 2200 mobile screen features a drive system with four-bearing screen drive for each screen box. This concept builds on the Chieftain 1400 efficiency combination of high screen angle and four-bearing drive system. The Chieftain 2200 screen can easily convert from four-bearing to two-bearing drive for many applications in sand/gravel, slags, quarry de-dusting, etc. at very small bottom deck apertures, according to the manufacturer. Trakpactor 260SR compact mobile impact crusher is available as standard with no post-screen, or with optional post-screen and recirculating system as displayed. Primarily used for recycling and demolition for one-stop production of sized aggregate from raw feed material, it is equally suited as a small primary crusher for quarries. Operator benefits include extreme versatility due to high mobility, rapid setup and retractable post-screen system. Warrior 2100 mobile scalping screen includes Powerscreen’s triple-shaft technology for high productivity, especially in sticky scalping applications and single-size

screening. It offers exceptional performance in aggregates, overburden, processed ores, topsoil, compost, biomass, construction and demolition and other wastes. Numerous stroke and feed settings allow the Warrior 2100 screen to excel in the most challenging applications, according to the manufacturer. Premiertrak 300 HA mobile jaw crusher features a highly aggressive and robust 40 by 24 in. (100 by 60 cm) crushing chamber and a low engine RPM for fuel efficiency and low noise. Large bypass chute clearance and full tunnelling enhance material flow and reduce blockage with sticky materials. The hydraulically lowering conveyor allows for good access if blockage occurs. It is also available with hydraulic release jaw chamber for difficult recycling applications with tramp metal. Warrior 600 mobile screen is the smallest Warrior, but with plenty of punch. It makes the Warrior range the widest in the market, with six machine sizes. The Warrior 600 screen is designed for versatility, maneuverability and is easy to transport and setup. It has high strength, high amplitude, two-bearing, 8 by 4 ft. (2.4 by 1.2 m) screenbox with up to 6g acceleration. Fuel consumption is approximately 1-1/2 gal/hr (6 L).

Great Falls Clinic Will Feature Reduced Operating Costs CLINIC from page 1

Anderson Construction and L’Heureux Page Werner are working with Birmingham, Ala.headquartered general contractor Brasfield & Gorrie, along with the architectural firm Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood Inc. and project developer Capital Growth MedVest, to build the new hospital. Construction is scheduled to be complete in fall 2015. Brasfield & Gorrie broke ground on the structure in August 2014. “We have completed structural steel, concrete, exterior sheathing, roofing and most of the site work,” said Lynn Jones, Brasfield & Gorrie senior project manager. “We are ‘dried in’ with the exterior envelope and working on exterior finishes and the interior build-out. The interior build-out includes mechanical, electrical and plumbing roughin work, as well as interior partition work. We should start hanging drywall in mid-March.” Still to be carried out are taping and finishing drywall, painting, ceilings, flooring, millwork, specialty items and paving. Jones said a variety of equipment has been used on the project. “We utilized a large crawler crane for structural steel and roofing. A series of all-terrain fork lifts were used for the exterior skin, windows and canopies. We placed most of the concrete with 157 to 197 ft. (48 to 60 m) concrete pumps, and a series of track front-end loaders, excavators, bull dozers, and back hoes were used to perform site excavation. Materials being used include 2,500 cu. yd.

The contemporary building shell was designed by the Montana firm, L’Heureux Page Werner, and includes building materials such as EIFs, masonry and glass. “Designing a health care facility is completely different from designing any other type building,” said Parham. “GMC has a dedicated health care department that allows its architects and interior designers to work specifically in health care, as they have for many years. In good health care architecture, decisions are based on credible medical research using evidence-based design. Lean health care principles are leveraged to maximize a caregiver’s time with patients and to eliminate excessive steps. Patient and family-centered care models provide the basis for creating health care environments that empower patients, as well as support staffing efficiency, and increase patient safety and healing. Alby said, “Many additional factors must be considered in health care design, including stricter requirements and regulations, patient experience and privacy, increased need for wellness promotion, medical equipment, operational efficiency and staff flow. All these considerations, in addition to the complexity and variance of clients, make health care design a dynamic field that differs greatly from standard architecture. “Lights at the patient head wall create a homier ambiance than most patient head wall lights that create a sterile-looking environment.

Talbert Launches Updated Traveling Axle Trailer Series Talbert Manufacturing updated its traveling axle (TA) series by increasing its hauling capacity by 5 tons (4.5 t). Three of the new trailer models — the 4048TA, 4050TA and 4053TA — have a 40-ton hauling capacity, and the new 5548TA and 5553TA trailer models haul as much as 55 tons (50 t). The five new trailer models will replace the others within the TA Series. The added capacity on the new TA Series trailers equates to increased hauling flexibility. For example, the 4050TA now has an 80,000-lb. (36,287 kg) evenly distributed capacity or a concentrated load capacity of 50,000 lb. (22,679 kg) in 10 ft. (3 m). This allows haulers to expand their range of load opportunities and maximize transportation efficiency, while complying with U.S. state and Canadian province hauling requirements. The TA Series trailers feature a

36-in. (91 cm) loaded deck height, which provides additional clearance for bridges and tunnels when transporting tall equipment. The 4050TA was the first model released in the updated TA Series with this low deck height feature, and it also is Californialegal, making the 4050TA an ideal west coast hauling trailer. The five new TA Series trailer models feature Talbert’s signature piggy-back cylinder, now with a larger diameter for faster axle travel. The new models also have an increased number of keyholes across the rear of the trailer for additional flexibility for tying down loads, an improved, lockable curbside gooseneck toolbox that includes a weather resistant door seal, as well as a chain rack and other hardware upgrades. Another key advancement with the new TA Series trailers is the standard metal e-chain for the

air and electrical lines, which now makes it both easier and less expensive to add optional dock levelers as an aftermarket option. The TA Series trailers feature key trailer components for easy loading on its 7-degree load angle. Talbert’s standard equipment for the series includes a 15,000-lb. (6,804 kg) planetary winch with a two-function, wireless remote. It assists in moving equipment on and off of the trail-

er by making it possible for one person to load a piece of equipment without leaving the vehicle. Talbert also offers two other upgrade options; a six-function remote and a 20,000-lb. (9,072 kg) planetary winch. The sixfunction remote provides the operator with the ability to adjust the movement of the axles, winch and deck while loading. The TA Series trailers come standard with double keyhole tie-

down slots on top of the outside beams and recessed in the center of the main deck. For recessed tie-downs, Talbert includes a metal basket that is mounted below the deck to protect the main cylinder from excess chain. Talbert has multiple, optional features to enhance the TA Series trailers. Available coating selections include the standard Valspar R-Cure 800 paint in Talbert’s signature red and optional Valspar Aquaguard for corrosion protection. Additional optional equipment includes a 48-in. (122 cm) aluminum/steel bulkhead with strobe and work lights, a centralized lubrication system and a right weigh load scale.

General Tire Rolls Three New On-Highway Truck Tires In celebration of 100 years of innovation, experience and reliability, General Tire launched three new highway truck tires at this year’s Mid-America Trucking Show (MATS) in Louisville, Ky. The General HS is a new long haul steer tire featuring an enhanced tread design, fuelefficient compounding and an upgraded casing platform. The five rib tread pattern, including a straight groove bottom design, promotes even wear and high removal mileage. Additionally, the grooves feature pyramidal shaped stone ejectors to prevent stone retention and increase retreadability. Upgraded compounding in the General HS leads to longer removal mileage while still delivering optimal fuel economy. The casing features an enhanced bead to belt package increasing overall durability for

maximum retreadability. All of these components utilize proven technology and combine to deliver optimized long haulage performance, according to the manufacturer. The launch of the new General HS tire will begin in May 2015 with the release of the 295/75R22.5 (Load Range H) and will continue with the following sizes: • 11R22.5 (Load Range H) • 11R24.5 (Load Range H) • 285/75R24.5 (Load Range H) The General HD, long haul drive tire, features a deep 32/32nd closed shoulder tread design that offers high mileage and optimal fuel economy while also delivering traction in demanding applications. The tread block geometry promotes stiffness in the footprint which reduces excess block movement lead-

ing to lower rolling resistance and improved fuel economy. The groove bottom ejection system reduces stone retention and casing penetration leading to higher retreadability. The launch of the new General HD tire began in April 2015 with the 11R22.5 (Load Range G) and will continue with the following sizes: • 295/75R22.5 (Load Range G) • 11R24.5 (Load Range G) • 285/75R24.5 (Load Range G) The General HT, long haul trailer, tire delivers optimal removal mileage and flexibility through an improved tread pattern. The improved scuff rib protects the sidewalls from curbing and cutting therefore reducing damage to the tire and increasing retreadability.

Isuzu Announces Start of Production of 2015, 2016 Models Isuzu Commercial Truck of America Inc. has announced start of production for its line of 2015 and 2016 N-Series diesel models. The diesel-powered 2016 NPRHD, NPR-XD, NQR and NRR meet stringent new EPA greenhouse gas emissions standards a full year before they go into effect. These models, as well as the 2015 NPR ECO-MAX, offer upgraded interiors, new exterior styling, and new optional driver’s suspension seat and keyless entry. “This is our strongest — and cleanest — line of diesel trucks ever,” said Shaun Skinner, executive vice president and general manager of Isuzu Commercial Truck of America. “This reflects our continued commitment to provide the best trucks for our customers in the low cab forward market.” The 2015 NPR ECO-MAX and 2016 NPR-HD, NPR-XD, NQR and NRR benefit from all of the following enhancements as they enter their new model years:

The diesel-powered 2016 NPR-HD, NPR-XD, NQR and NRR meet stringent new EPA greenhouse gas emissions standards a full year before they go into effect.

• Onboard diagnostics (OBD) improved with a new particulate matter sensor • A new high-output 140-amp alternator generating 30 more amps than the equipment it replaces • Stylish new front grille, available in white (standard) and chrome (optional) • Redesigned steering wheel • Comfortable and durable new fabric seats

• An optional driver suspension seat that increases comfort as it reduces driver fatigue • An optional keyless entry system with two key fobs that lock and unlock driver and passenger doors • An optional lockable DEF fill cap that will help prevent tampering, possible contamination and/or theft of DEF fluid (diesel exhaust fluid)

All Truck Parts & Equipment Opens Western Star Dealer After 50 years in the used truck sales and parts business, All Truck Parts & Equipment has joined with Daimler Trucks North America as the South’s newest dealer of Western Star Trucks. “It’s a market we’ve been looking to enter for some time. We have always catered to the vocational market so the Western Star is a perfect complement to our business. And with Western Star expanding its product offerings with the all new 4700 model and now the 5700, the timing couldn’t be better,” said Scott Culotta, owner/CEO of All Truck Parts. “We’ve long wanted to enter the new truck market but we Scott Culotta (L), owner and CEO, and Dwayne wanted the product to be the perfect Pitre (R), truck manager, both of All Truck Parts & Equipment, sold the company’s first Western fit for our company.” Star tri-axle dump to J.H. Sanders and his son. As a Western Star dealer, All Truck has expanded its service bays, added It soon will be adding certified services for factory-certified technicians and updated its Cummins diesel engines. (This story also can be found on facilities to accommodate the new customer base. It’s now a full service truck dealership Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at and a Detroit Diesel certified service center. www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

2016 NPR-HD, NPR-XD, NQR and NRR Diesel Models In addition to these improvements, the Isuzu 4HK1-TC 5.2-L turbocharged diesel engine powering the 2016 NPR-HD, NPR-XD, NQR and NRR has been enhanced to deliver improved fuel economy and to meet tough new EPA standards restricting the emissions of greenhouse gases.

2016 NPR-XD The weight of the newest member of the Isuzu N-Series family, the 16,000-lb. (7,257 kg) GVWR NPR-XD, has been reduced, allowing an increased payload capacity across all wheelbases and in both standard cab and crew cab configurations. “In 2014, we celebrated the 30th anniversary of Isuzu trucks in the United States,” Skinner said. “These improvements to our range of diesel-powered trucks demonstrate clearly that we are not resting on our laurels. When it comes to power, performance, economy, driver comfort, low cost of operation and environmental friendliness, we intend to be the leading low cab forward truck for the next 30 years.” For more information, call 866/441-9638 or visit www.isuzucv.com.

New 70,000-Sq.-Ft. Center to Conjoin Existing Clinic

Located adjacent to the existing Great Falls Clinic Specialty Center, a new 70,000-sq.-ft. (6,503 sq m) project is taking shape in Great Falls, Mont. CLINIC from page 44

elevator to create a more Montanalike aesthetic. This fixture supplements one of the interior finishes, chosen to look like grass on the Montana plains. Said Brooks, “Health care design aesthetics should support hospital functionality. Natural lighting and soothing colors are important design elements in a care setting. These components ease the stress of a hospital visit and accelerate recovery, which is important in a high-anxiety environment. A good health care design team understands that aesthetics plus functionality is actually a symbiotic relationship.” Said Alby, “The ultimate goal is for the patient’s surroundings to feel familiar and comfortable, while simultaneously reassuring them they are in a state-of-the-art medical facility.” The facility will be owned equally by Great Falls Clinic, a multi-specialty medical practice with primary, related secondary and urgent care service offerings, and Surgery Partners, a company that partners with hospitals and health systems to develop and operate short-stay surgical facilities. According to Joseph Baugh, managing partner of the Alabama firm Capital Growth MedVest, “MedVest prides itself as a real estate solution driven company, and we’re very pleased to work with one of the nation's largest and

The site had some sub-surface rock that was excavated, without blasting.

Crews placed most of the concrete with 157 to 197 ft. (48 to 60 m) concrete pumps, and a series of track front-end loaders, excavators, bull dozers, and back hoes were used to perform site excavation.

successful surgery center/hospital companies in Surgery Partner Group. Great Falls needed a dynamic partner that could buy some of their assets to free up capital, as well as a group that could bring the best team to the table in order to produce the best solution to replace their current hospital. By working with a proven team in Goodwyn Mills Cawood Architects and Brasfield and Gorrie, we were able to design/plan the most cost-efficient and effective design. “The current hospital had a price target, as well as a defined timeline they had to make in order to not interrupt operations or put capital constraints on the operations. Through a team effort, we were able to meet both the cost and timelines needed, while still keeping with the goals of the tenant/client. Our biggest concerns and goals

were to meet the expectations of the client as it relates to budgets/timing, while at the same time keeping with the size and scope of the plans.” Great Falls Clinic has been serving the needs of citizens in Great Falls, Mont., for nearly 100 years. Great Falls Clinic, founded by four general practitioners in 1917, was the first group practice in Montana and the fourth oldest west of the Mississippi River. It currently offers services to roughly 225,000 residents in seventeen counties. By recruiting and retaining physicians through the delivery of the latest medical technology, Great Falls Clinic officials believe the replacement hospital is positioned to help continue meeting that goal. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG

The new construction adjoins an existing clinic that the hospital owns. The clinic also has several independently owned buildings surrounding the project site.

Construction is scheduled to be complete in fall 2015. Brasfield & Gorrie broke ground on the structure in August 2014.

Atlas Copco Raises Nearly ARTBA Calls on U.S. DOT to Act $31,000 for Nonprofit Group ARTBA from page 1

the Federal Highway Administration or Federal Transit Administration through the pilot program. Previously, U.S. DOT prohibited these provisions on all federal-aid highway and transit projects, which require the competitive low bid process. Under the department’s long-time interpretation of this low-bid requirement, hiring preferences could negatively influence competition by disfavoring or eliminating contracting firms unable to meet local hiring requirements. In April 3 comments, ARTBA said it agrees with U.S. DOT’s assertion that “transportation investments and policies can improve access to jobs, education, and goods movement, while providing construction and operations jobs.” However, contrary to the agency’s assertions, ARTBA observed that local hiring preferences can actually function as barriers to facilitating economic and job growth. The association said that preferring one group of individuals over another based on residency would almost certainly limit competition in the bidding process and warned such requirements could disrupt the stability of transportation construction jobs by forcing companies to lay off workers that do not live in the preferred geographic area.

Atlas Copco USA employees raised more than $30,000 during a three-day sales conference to support its Water for All organization, which sponsors clean drinking water projects around the globe.

Atlas Copco USA raised nearly $31,000 in individual and company-matched contributions for its employee-led Water for All charity organization. The company raised the funds during a three-day, annual sales conference, and more than doubled the amount of new employee contributors. “As a responsible corporate citizen, our company realizes how important it is to give back to the markets we serve,” said Sofie Gielen, Atlas Copco marketing communications director. “This is just one way our company wants to make a difference in the world we live in.” The charity organization also gained 51 new employee members during the conference. Two Atlas Copco employees, Torgny Rogert and Peter Hakansson, founded Water for All in 1984 after seeing how an ongoing drought created harsh living conditions in Peru. In just the past four years, the Atlas Copco USA Water for All initiative has helped more than 10,000 people gain access

to clean water and sanitation and has donated more than $500,000 to 15 projects around the world. “What started as a one-time project to raise money to combat drought-stricken communities in Peru has grown into a worldwide initiative that allows our employees to act on their commitment to global sustainability,” said Jim Levitt, president of Atlas Copco North America. “We are proud to support organizations that raise awareness and take action around the issues of unsafe drinking water and global water scarcity.” Water for All celebrated its 30-year anniversary in September. During the past 30 years, the global Atlas Copco charity organization has helped more than 1.5 million people gain access to clean drinking water. For more information, visit www.atlascopco.com.

ARTBA urged U.S. DOT to consider the pilot program’s safety implications — an unintended consequence of geographicbased preferences could force companies to hire individuals for positions in which they have no qualifications. If training them within the project’s time frame is impractical and unsafe, then they may be given job duties that are safer and more peripheral, but largely unnecessary to the project itself. As a result, the association said, the transportation project would cost taxpayers more. ARTBA also noted that geographic-based preferences could dilute existing regulatory requirements aimed at increasing the employment of minorities and women in transportation construction. In its conclusion, ARTBA called on the U.S. DOT to focus its energies on developing and building political and public support for a long-term, stable proposal to grow federal Highway Trust Fund revenues. Such a course, the association said, would allow the nation to improve its transportation infrastructure and grow the size of the workforce building and maintaining it.

AED Chairman to Engage Millennials in Workforce WORKFORCE from page 18

ity prices on the agriculture side were ramping up, too. That double whammy — coupled with the wisdom and balance instilled by former owner and mentor Orvis Stockstad — caused GES to double in size between 2010 and 2012 and it’s been growing ever since. But there more to the energy market in Shilling’s territory than oil and gas. Out on the prairie of North Dakota, the wind blows all the time, he says, so construction of wind farms as well as supporting manufacturing has been another boon. Coal, too, has been an economic staple for the state for 60 years, Shilling adds. Four mines yield cheap, lowgrade lignite coal, which is exported to Great River Energy in Minneapolis and to Montana Dakota Utilities, as well. Narrow Escape Shilling loves the equipment business and wouldn’t trade it for anything, but he almost missed out on all the fun. As a college student at North Dakota State University, the young Don Shilling was

working on a bachelor’s degree in Political Science with the intent on going to law school. Luckily, one day his dad asked him to help return some water pump parts over to General Diesel, the company whose liquidated assets Shilling eventually purchased to form GES. “My dad struck up a conversation with one of the owners and asked if they were looking for someone to help out,” Shilling recalled. Next thing you know, he was their next wash bay laborer — and first day on the job he helped hook up a Hotsy Steam Cleaner and was asked to drive a Terex TS24 scraper into the bay and clean it. “The work was wet and a little dirty, but for some strange reason I loved. I was starting at the ground floor of my life’s career and didn’t even know it.

ALL Erection & Crane Rental Corp. Calif. Adds More Promotes Garrity to Sales Director New Jobs Than The ALL Erection & Crane Rental Corp., part of the ALL Family of Companies, announced the promotion of 20-year sales veteran Mike Garrity to the position of new equipment sales director of the company’s entire 37branch enterprise. Garrity began his career in the sales of aerial lifts and later moved into broader lift equipment sales. For the past 20 years, he has worked as a sales and rental representative of ALL out of the company’s Cleveland headquarters location. “I’m proud of the high-quality equipment we sell,” said Garrity. “ALL is committed to keeping their fleet up-to-date and in perfect condition, and to offering a rigorous training program for their crane professionals.” Garrity also is a certified Level 2 user for 3D Lift Plan, the lift planning software ALL uses to map out every detail of a job prior to commencement of work. This complex program requires hours of training, a dedicated skill set and deep understanding of the logistics of lift planning and execution, which translate directly to his ability to

recommend the right cranes for his customers. ALL is not only the largest privately held crane rental and sales company in North America, it also is an authorized dealer of many top brands of lift equipment. It is an authorized Terex tier-one dealer in Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Wisconsin. It also is an authorized dealer of industrial and carry deck cranes from Broderson and Shuttlelift; the full line of JLG boom lifts, vertical and scissor lifts and telehandlers; Genie aerial work platforms, boom, scissor and vertical mast lifts, materials lifts and telehandlers; Skyjack scissor lifts and boom lifts, National Crane and Manitex boom trucks; and Landoll trailers. With the depth and breadth of the ALL fleet, Garrity said he can find a crane for any purpose that will fit any budget — “even a crawler, and that’s not easy. ALL can find the right, costeffective and reliable equipment because of the size and quality of the fleet. And who else can offer such extensive support after a sale?” Many

customers buy equipment after a period of rental from ALL, as they know the servicing and maintenance record is beyond compare, according to the company. “When customers invest in a piece of equipment from ALL, they’re also buying a piece of the company legacy — outstanding support, expertise and maintenance acumen developed over the 50-year history of the company,” said Garrity. “We believe in Mike,” said Michael Liptak, president of ALL. “It’s employees like Mike that make ALL a strong resource for our industry in both the sales and rental space. He has proven himself time and again to be a skilled, intelligent and dedicated employee, and we know he will continue to represent the company and serve our customers well in his new position.” For more information, call 800/2324100 or visit www.allcrane.com.

IronPlanet Names Schleicher Officer IronPlanet announced financial veteran Debbie Schleicher as the company’s new chief financial officer (CFO). Schleicher joins IronPlanet with more than 27 years of experience helping dynamic organizations meet their compliance and reporting obligations, as well as driving strategy and growth for global public accounting firms. “I am pleased to welcome Debbie Schleicher to the IronPlanet team as our new CFO,” said Gregory J. Owens, IronPlanet chairman and CEO. “IronPlanet will benefit from Debbie’s vast experience in building reporting and tax processes, as well as her client management and implementation skills. Debbie is an important and strategic addition to our executive team as we continue to drive our business and expand our online platform for buying and selling heavy used equipment.” At IronPlanet, Schleicher will be responsible for its finance function, including accounting, financial reporting, compliance, planning and analysis, treasury and tax. “I am thrilled to be joining IronPlanet,” said Schleicher. “I have tremendous confidence in our executive team and in the strength of IronPlanet’s platform, which provides great service, value and agility to sell-

ers and buyers of used heavy equipment and trucks.” Schleicher has worked in a number of international public accounting firms, including Arthur Andersen, PricewaterhouseCoopers and Grant Thornton. She most recently served as the national partner in charge of Grant Thornton’s Tax and Finance Optimization and Global Compliance and Reporting practices, where she led teams that worked to enhance compliance and reporting processes and controls, improve finance and tax function operational performance, and manage tax and reporting risk. Prior to her nearly eight-year tenure as a partner at Grant Thornton, Schleicher was a partner at SC&H Group and a managing director with PricewaterhouseCoopers. Schleicher started her career at Arthur Andersen and worked there for 15 years, where she was a partner in corporate tax with a focus in corporate transactions, financial reporting for income tax, and business process outsourcing.

Mississippi (2.3 percent, 1,100 jobs) had the highest percentage increase for the month, followed by Delaware (2.0 percent, 400 jobs), Nevada (2.0 percent, 1,300 jobs) and Illinois. Association officials said the industry's recovery was at risk amid weakening demand and urged Congress and the Obama administration to act quickly to figure out a way to pay for and pass legislation to repair aging roads, bridges and transit systems, as well as other public infrastructure. They added that road users should visit www.DriveBetterRoads.org to share their stories of bad road conditions and urge Washington to act. "The construction industry has clearly hit a soft patch," said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association's chief executive officer. "Passing needed infrastructure measures will certainly help keep construction employment levels from backsliding."

“Hey man! I have my track! Let me report great service from the truck driver. and exceptional follow up from you. Pass on as appropriate. In the customer service business everybody has ‘stuff’ that happens. Its what’s done to mitigate that separates service providers from bozos. I’m tickled and my cows will get fed (needed track for skidloader which loads the hay). Happy cows = happy cowboy. “

Customer Testimonial

I called 6 companies to get prices and availability for tracks for a TB125. I do business with the company that gives me the best customer service. Mr. Darryl Race has great customer service skills. He answered every question I had without any hesitation and very pleasant to do business with. So for that fact I choose your company to order from. More companies should have such great customer service.

Customer Testimonial

First, thank you so much for your years of providing great service. Your professionalism surpasses most in your market. I had a machine down, Morooka (out of town job) ,due to a track being split in half. I called you and you quoted me a track based upon # of links and width. You replied within minutes to my request, not even the dealer could match your service and knowledge as well. You promised me a delivery date, I got the tracks the morning promised, we scheduled a mechanic to come and install and we are up and running with minimal downtime! You turned a painful Thursday morning phone call of distress from my superintendent on the job to the machine back up and running within 3 days, including freight time…OUTSTANDING. You have always supplied me the correct track (which is more than a notion), and second to none customer service. Your team you have built around is to be highly commended as well. This past purchase for our Morooka made me look good to my boss as they had never used you in the past and will continue to purchase from you in the future…I wanted to take the time to say thank you and job well done! Look forward to future business with you and your company.

LOEGERING VERSATILE TRACK SYSTEM (VTS)

USED TRACKS

Convert your wheeled skidsteer into a tracked machine with a Loegering Versatile Track System (VTS)! The patented VTS torsion hub provides both independent and bi-directional suspension. The Loegering VTS is equipped with steel Bogey wheels, Idler wheels and Tension Rollers which are engineered to minimize de-tracking. The chassis on VTS is adjustable to fit many makes and models of skid steers (currently over 100). The chassis should be in the proper configuration for your skid steer at the time of purchase and only need adjustment in the event that you need to put your VTS on a different machine. Given that the machines are compatible (similar wheelbase and horsepower) you can take the Loegering VTS off your current machine, reconfigure and bolt on to your new machine.

Used Systems Available, Parts in Stock!

• Fully sealed bearings for minimal maintenance. • Operates with 2-speed machines. • Improved ride and traction with propriety multi-fit design. • Independent bi-directional torsion suspension • Improved operator comfort and increased traction. • Adjustable components designed to fit wheelbases from 35 – 55 inches.

500 + Used Tracks in Stock at All Times!!

Please Call to Confirm Availability (888) 888-1248

Customer Testimonial

We chose VTS track because we need the flexibility that they offer. Being able to switch from track to tire quickly to meet job requirements was essential for our business. However, parts could be difficult to find, until we started working with Summit Supply. They have a great inventory, staff is knowledgeable, professional, prompt and dedicated to keeping you moving. We do some jobs that have a very small window for completion. I ordered parts late on Friday and had them by 11:00 a.m. the next morning and we normally don’t get UPS on Saturdays. Basically, they said I’d have them and they arrived on time. - Thank you for the support Summit.

“I called a few companies looking for a VTS system, and they either didn’t know what I was talking about, or they didn’t have any in stock. One call to Summit and within a few days, I was back in business. Give them a call if you’re in the market, and I’m sure they can help you out!!!”
