Restoration work is under way on a historic wall along the designated scenic Highway 101 on the Oregon Coast that was originally constructed in 1932. Built some 400 ft. (122 m) above the Pacific Ocean, the basalt rock wall stretches as much as 20 ft. (61 m) deep on the seaward side, but stands only 12 in. to 3 ft. (30 cm to .91 m) in height on the roadway. “They wanted to put something up so people wouldn’t just go over the side into the ocean,” said Sarah Jalving, Oregon Department of Transportation architectural historian. “But they also realized there were very beautiful vistas. It was built for tourists so they could pull off the road and enjoy the vistas. Today, if we were to build something it would be much, much higher to meet safety standards today. But because of the historic feature, we are able to get design exception so we can build to its historic profile.” When constructed more than eight decades ago, the wall was

part of a highway project that was the most expensive mile of highway ever built by the Bureau of Public Roads, and dubbed as the “half-million-dollar-mile.” It is one of four rockwork walls on the coast, and is the second longest

span of the four, stretching fourtenths of a mile from milepost 178.82 to 179.18 on the central coast just north of the city of Florence. The wall features two turnouts and a repeated crenellated parapet design.

The work is being done by contractor HP Civil Inc. of Stayton, Ore. and Tigard, Ore., subcontractor Pioneer Waterproofing Company, a masonry contractor. “It’s just a simple basalt wall,” see ODOT page 16

Obama Signs Infrastructure Spending Bill

WASHINGTON (AP) A 5-year, $305-billion bill to address the nation’s aging and congested transportation systems was signed into law Dec. 4 by President Barack Obama, who said it will put Americans to work and provide states with the federal help they need to commit to long-term projects. The bill, which was overwhelmingly approved by Congress a day earlier, provides a modest increase to highway and transit spending but falls short of the $400 billion over six

years administration officials said is necessary to keep traffic congestion from worsening. Nor does it resolve how to pay for transportation programs in the long term. Obama said he’ll continue to push for greater transportation spending to meet the nation’s infrastructure needs and create jobs. “This bill is not perfect, but it is a commonsense compromise, and an important first step in the right direction,” Obama said in a statement. Despite that, the 1,300-page bill was hailed by lawmakers and the industry as a major accomplishment that will halt the cycle of last-

minute, short-term fixes that have kept the federal Highway Trust Fund teetering on the edge of insolvency for much of the past eight years. Republican leaders pointed to the bill’s passage as evidence of their ability to govern, and Obama can claim progress on addressing the nation’s deficient bridges and crowded highways, a major goal since the early days of his administration. Lawmakers in both parties praised the bill as a model of bipartisan cooperation. Support for the measure was increased by a generous helping of business favors, parochial provisee OBAMA page 32

Alaska’s North Slope...

ConocoPhillips Approves $900M Arctic Reserve Project ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) ConocoPhillips has approved funding for a $900 million drilling project on Alaska’s North Slope. When production begins in 2018 at the field in the National Petroleum ReserveAlaska — an Indiana-sized Arctic reserve — the project is expected to yield 30,000 barrels of oil daily at its peak, The Alaska Dispatch News reports. Production would be the first time oil has flowed from federal lands on the reserve. The Bureau of Land Management oversees the reserve and is working on a broad management plan in the area. “We are pleased to have been able to work through key permitting issues with the Corps of Engineers and BLM that now allows us to move into the development phase,” said Joe Marushack, president of ConocoPhillips Alaska. The BLM permitted the project in

October, after the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers approved a federal wetlands permit in January. The project will require a new gravel pad, a road, facilities and pipelines. Plans call for nine wells initially and up to 33 wells, with oil processing at the existing Alpine Central Facility. Construction is slated for early 2017, with peak winter-season hiring estimated at about 700, according to a company statement. The project will receive a tax incentive through the “new oil” portion of the state’s tax regime passed in 2013. State Revenue Department spokesman Ken Alper said if oil prices remain low when production begins, the project’s tax rate could drop to zero because the minimum tax wouldn’t apply.

Telescope Foes Want Equipment Gone By Jennifer Sinco Kelleher ASSOCIATED PRESS

HONOLULU (AP) Opponents of the Thirty Meter Telescope want construction equipment and vehicles removed from Mauna Kea now that the Hawaii Supreme Court has invalidated the project’s permit. In a Dec. 2 ruling seen as a victory for opponents fighting the $1.4 billion project, the court said the state land board approved a permit that allowed construction on conservation land before a contested case hearing was held. The court sent the matter back for a new contested case hearing. “They have no permit. It’s been vacated,’’ said Kealoha Pisciotta, one of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit challenging the permit. “They absolutely, immediately have to remove all their stuff.’’ But the state attorney general’s office said the equipment can remain because the project has a sublease with the University of Hawaii for a portion of the Big Island mountain. “As long as TMT does not engage in activities that constitute a land use in the conservation district, TMT would not require a permit or be subject to fines,’’ said a

statement from attorney general spokesman Joshua Wisch. Storing large equipment on the mountain is not consistent with conservation district use, said Richard Naiwieha Wurdeman, the attorney representing the permit challengers. He said he’s ready to take legal action to ensure the equipment is removed. Project spokesman Scott Ishikawa said officials are still assessing what to do next, including issues related to the equipment on the mountain. “The ball’s certainly in their court at this point, whether they want to start the process all over again,’’ Wurdeman said. “We’re ready to challenge them every step of the way.’’ If telescope officials opt to proceed with a new contested case hearing, the entire process could take several years. Longtime telescope supporter and Big Island farmer Richard Ha said he hopes telescope officials don’t give up on a project he believes will provide significant economic and educational opportunities. “I know that they’ve done everything they possibly can to do the right thing,’’ he said. “I hope they hang in there.’’ In the meantime, there was a sense

of relief among telescope protesters that they won’t have to worry about construction resuming on land many hold sacred. “I think people are going to want to go [up to the summit] and rejoice and we support that,’’ Pisciotta said. “But we want people to remember that it’s a temple and they need to uphold their best behavior and know that they are walking in the gods’ realm. ... Just have reverence.’’ While some protesters were celebrating the ruling, others were in court for charges related to being arrested for blocking construction crews from accessing the telescope site. Wurdeman called on the governor to urge that all charges be dismissed. “There is no plan to ask the county prosecutor to dismiss those prosecutions,’’ said a statement from Gov. David Ige’s office. “These trials are currently ongoing and we’re not going to interfere with the judicial process.’’ (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.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 con-

Used smartly, Facebook can be a powerful sales, marketing and communication tool for the construction contractor. struction 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 printedpaper 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. In its analysis, San Franciscobased 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, or services they are commissioned to check out and report back on. • Community involvement — see FACEBOOK page 26

Low Level Pumping Station Work Begins on Lake Mead By Irwin Rapoport CEG CORRESPONDENT

As a companion to Intake No. 3 on Lake Mead, the Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) is building the low lake level pumping station, a project whose cost is estimated at $650 million, in the Lake Mead National Recreation Area, just 500 ft. (152.4 m) from the new intake. “To ensure access to southern Nevada’s primary water supply is maintained and water demands are met,” stated a press release, “the SNWA Board of Directors approved an initial construction agreement in May 2015, to begin the development of a low lake level pumping station. The new pumping station, which was recommended for construction by a citizen’s advisory committee, will work alongside the SNWA’s third intake. “The contract to build the station was awarded to Barnard of Nevada Inc., and its delivery is scheduled for 2020. The station is needed to continue supplying water demands at low lake levels. “Ongoing drought conditions in the Colorado River Basin have caused Lake Mead’s elevation to fall by more than 130 ft. (39.6 m) since 2000,” stated the project’s fact sheet. “In response, Colorado River users throughout the basin are working together to increase water conservation and minimize drought impacts. In southern Nevada, conservation has reduced water use by 30 percent since the drought began, despite a population increase of more than a halfmillion people during that same time period. “While southern Nevada continues to do its part, the drought isn’t over,” it added. “Drought forecasts published by the Bureau of Reclamation show that Lake Mead’s water level is at risk of falling below 1,000 ft. (304.8 m) within the next decade. If that happens, the community’s intake pumps, which draw water from Lake Mead, will become inoperable.” The SNWA currently operates two pump stations, both of which are currently 1,221 ft. (372.16 m) above sea level — full lake capac-

ity. The lake’s current level is 1,078 ft. (328.6 m) above sea level, and Intake Pumping Station No. 1 completed in the 1970s, has an operating range down to 1,050 ft. (320 m) above sea level. Intake Pumping Station No. 2, built in the early 2000s, has an operating range down to 1,000 ft. (304.8 m) above sea level. “L3 will ensure southern Nevada maintains access to its primary water supplies in Lake Mead,” states the fact sheet, “even if the lake dips below elevation 895 — the point at which [the] Hoover Dam can no longer release water downstream to California, Arizona, and Mexico. Low-level elevations also may require additional water treatment.” Bronson Mack, of SNWA public outreach and media relations, goes further. “These projects reinforce the importance of ensuring that we as a water agency can continue to pro-

vide water to our customers under any operating conditions in the Colorado River,” he said. “In the event that Lake Mead continues to decline, this is the type of infrastructure we need. We’re really pushing and stretching those limits.” The operating range of L3PS will be down to elevation 875 ft. (266.7 m) above sea level. Erika Moonin, the SNWA’s project manager, explained some of the design features. “We have a 525 feet-plus deep shaft, about 26 feet in diameter to drill and blast,” she said, “and a large underground floor bank — almost 400 feet long that needs to be created, along with nearly 34 — approximately eight-feet in diameter — well shafts to be drilled. Those shafts are going to be 500 feet deep. The equipping of it will include large submersible pumps and the mechanical and electrical systems that go with them. The

pumping capacity is going to be 900 million gallons per-day (MGD).” A key design challenge is the siting of the station due to its proximity to a major, inactive fault line. “The plan was to put it on the Intake No. 3 site and it has to be on that location,” said Moonin, “and we are going to shoe-fly it in between the faults to not encounter any fault issues. On the construction side, we’re looking to minimize the risk of drilling the well shafts, which we know are going to present some major challenges.” On the mechanical side, the pumps are another challenging aspect, “This is very sophisticated equipment: large deep-set submersible vertical pumps and double-section vertical turbines,” said Moonin. “We already purchased some large submersible pumps between 2004 and 2006 and they have been installed in Intake

Pumping Station No. 2. We’re contacting three different manufacturers to provide one pump each and we are going to test them. The station is a unique design at these capacities — 30 million gallons per-day and about 525 feet of lift.” Barnard will be installing the pumps upon the successful completion of the second work package negotiations. The planning for the station began in 2005, the same time as Intake No. 3. Both infrastructure projects were paired. “But in 2008, when the economy took a downturn,” said Moonin, “we deferred the pumping station and it was a good thing because of the continued concern of climate change and Lake Mead’s level going down. That gave us the opportunity to revisit the criteria for the pumping station and now it is deeper than what we originally planned. It’s bigger and see SNWA page 54

ODOT Preserves Historic Rock Wall With Careful Repair ODOT from page 1

Jalving said. “The basalt was mined right on site. Of course it was much easier to get the rock you needed right on site other than having it shipped. Otherwise, you’d have had to put it on flatbeds and have it hauled by donkeys. It would have been quite the situation to get this up there. But it was mined right there. It’s got different depths as it undulates with the topography.” Sections of the wall have fallen into the ocean. Those are being replaced with new rock. But in other places, the rock is being deconstructed, then put back together with new mortar. Much of the work will be done by hand, and what equipment there is on the site is generally small, such as an extendedreach forklift, small propane warehouse forklift, large air compressor, two 40-pound jackhammers and scaffolding. “We’re using equipment,” Jalving said. “But we’re not using big equipment. There is not much land up there, just two lanes and When constructed more than eight decades ago, the wall was part of a highway project that was the most expensive mile of highway ever built by the Bureau of Public Roads, and dubbed as the “half-million-dollar-mile.”

The basalt wall is one of four rockwork walls on the coast, and is the second longest span of the four, stretching four-tenths of a mile from milepost 178.82 to 179.18 on the central coast just north of the city of Florence.

a couple of pullouts. There’s no way we can use super-sized machinery.” They also are doing much of the work by hand because of the historic nature of the wall, which is eligible for listing on National Record of Historic Places. “The biggest challenge is the actual physical deconstruction of the wall, having to find the correct size replacement rock, how the wall needs to go back together so we have a nice strong wall and are doing it in a fiscally responsible manner,” Jalving said. “Also, the challenge of the deconstruction of a historic resource. We have to find the right quarry to get the right stone. We need to think about the mortar mix we are going to use so it’s not going to harm the historic wall.” see ODOT page 36

Built some 400 ft. (122 m) above the Pacific Ocean, the basalt rock wall stretches as much as 20 ft. (61 m) deep on the seaward side, but stands only 12 in. to 3 ft. (30 cm to .91 m) in height on the roadway.

The project calls for the replacement of Jersey barrier, installed in recent years, with rail that is more in keeping with the original historic rail.

The wall features two turnouts and a repeated crenellated parapet design.

CLEANFIX Launches Intelligent Hydraulic Cooling Fans CLEANFIX North America Ltd. announced the launch of its intelligent new hydraulic cooling fans used in a wide range of agricultural, forestry, construction, waste and recycling equipment to prevent problems associated with overheating and inefficiency of the engine. The key benefits to customers are more power on the PTO shaft and on the wheels, fuel savings and noise reduction as engine speed can be reduced. Ben Haegele, CEO of CLEANFIX North America Ltd., said “We invested a lot in research and development and are very pleased to add the hydraulic equivalents of our successful reversible fan series to our existing product offer.” He added that the complete range of reversible fans, (from 12.6 to 51 in. [32 cm to 130 cm]) is now available as a hydraulic version. CLEANFIX now offers the standard reversing fan with hydraulic actuation (HSC-Series) in addition to the standard reversing function, the thermal-controlled variable blade pitch controlled fan (HVPSeries with wax elements) plus a fully electronically controlled CLEANFIX-Hytronic fan (HT-Series). The latter controls the exact blade angle and thus the cooling performance by using CAN bus or the CLEANFIX electronics with an integrated Hall sensor. CLEANFIX electronics also can be replaced by the vehicle or engine electronics. Customer support is provided by the

CLEANFIX customers, this means that either more fuel is saved or that the air flow rate is further increased, according to the manufacturer. Many comparative measurements of customers and manufacturers as well as tests by independent institutes, such as the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (Germany), certify that the CLEANFIX reversible fans save up to 30 percent of the drive power in comparison to electronically-controlled standard viscous fans, while delivering the same cooling capacity. This can be very easily measured for tractors equipped with a dynamometer. Another focus was on small installation space and minimum weight.

new reversible fans. This intelligent sealing system ensures maximum operating safety through the new integrated leakage oil recirculation — both for the piston seal as well as for the rotary intake. Thus, the CLEANFIX system remains tight should leakage occur.

A Revolution That Leaves No Tracks Keeping the system free of leaks in particular at high speeds, high temperatures and pressures up to 50 bar is a challenge that the CLEANFIX smart-seal system meets in the

The Comparison Is Worthwhile The CLEANFIX reversible fans promise maximum efficiency. To reach this objective, the control range has been extended downwards and upwards in recent years. For

Maximum Customer Orientation CLEANFIX offers the right solution, no matter how complex and diverse the demands of off-highway vehicles, according to the manufacturer. For all regulation and control requirements there either is the thermostatic control, an electro-pneumatic or an electronichydraulic solution. Whether the customer wants to activate the cleaning mode by pressing a button or at timed intervals, CLEANFIX will have the best solution.

Bobcat Expands Attachment Versatility With Spreader

Powered by a 12-volt DC drive motor, the new spreader can distribute salt or sand — from 5 to 38 ft. (1.5 to 11.6 m) — from the spinner wheel to melt snow and ice from surfaces.

Bobcat Company has broadened its utility vehicle attachment versatility with a new spreader, available for Model Year (MY) 15 3400, 3600 and 3650 utility vehicles. This is the first spreader attachment specifically designed for use with select Bobcat utility vehicles, and is specially fitted for the cargo box. The spreader is securely mounted in the utility vehicle’s cargo box, and is designed to efficiently spread sand and salt for winter maintenance tasks. Powered by a 12-volt DC drive motor, the new spreader can distribute salt or sand — from 5 to 38 ft. (1.5 to 11.6 m) — from the spinner wheel to melt snow and ice from surfaces. Utility vehicle operators can spread salt and sand on sidewalks, trails, driveways, intersections and parking lots, where larger vehicles often

cannot access because of space restrictions. Precise Placement, Control Bobcat utility vehicle operators can precisely distribute salt or sand without leaving their seat. Two variable-speed dials on the dash-mounted control allow for independent adjustment of the auger and spinner control. A three-stage baffle is another feature that allows operators to adjust the material flow for proper material granularity. The rust-resistant, doublewall poly-molded hopper is ultra-durable and rugged enough for ice and snow applications. It can hold up to 10.6 cu. ft. (.3 cu m) of heaped (7.8 cu. ft. [.2 cu m] struck [level]) salt or sand. In addition, a mesh screen at the top of the hopper allows for large chunks of sand

and salt to be filtered at an even and consistent flow. A vibrator feature also helps reduce the bridging of material for a constant and even flow. Easy Installation Buildings and grounds professionals, homeowners with acreage and snow removal specialists will appreciate how easy it is to install and remove the spreader from the cargo box. Attaching and detaching the spreader can be a one-person job because of the pallet fork slots. A convenient spring-latch locking mechanism easily allows the spreader’s spinner to be removed for storage and cleaning. For more information, visit bobcat.com.

Cool Flow Reduces Cab Overheating The Cool Flow hydraulic oil cooler from Loftness Specialized Equipment greatly reduces the risk of overheating in skid steers and hydraulically powered attachments when operating in demanding applications and hot work environments. The automatic thermostat-controlled fan provides adequate cooling to the system whenever needed to boost machine efficiency, even when an attachment is not being used, according to the manufacturer. Unlike other hydraulic coolers that are mounted near the attachment, the Cool Flow attaches to the roof of a skid steer cab where it is less susceptible to vibration, back pressure, debris and potential impact damage. It is specially engineered to allow full hydraulic flow to the attachment in either direction without risk of damage to the cooler. This feature allows operators to run the attachment in reverse when needed, and it also protects the unit in case hydraulic hoses are accidentally reversed. A self-cleaning design helps the Cool Flow run efficiently. To further simplify maintenance, the bottom screen slides out for easy cleaning, and the hinged fan assembly can be raised to access the cooling core. The Cool Flow has up to 40-gpm (151 Lpm) flow capacity and is compatible with all brands of skid steers. Operators can keep the unit continuously mounted to provide cooling for multiple attachments used on one skid steer. For more information, call 800/828-7624 or visit www.loftness.com.

Contractor Prepares for Demolition of Historic Idaho Falls Nuclear Reactor IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (AP) A cleanup contractor is preparing to demolish a 1960s-era nuclear reactor west of Idaho Falls. Work to remove the Experimental Breeder Reactor-II began in the spring, when contractors successfully entombed most of the reactor vessel in concrete, The Post Register reported. CWI is looking to remove the reactor’s dome by the end of next September. “It’s kind of a landmark,” said Troy Donahue, the CWI director for the program, of the old reactor. “But [the property is] earmarked for other things they want to build to make a world-

class lab.” EBR-II began operating in 1964 at what was then Argonne National Laboratory-West and is now known as Idaho National Laboratory’s Materials and Fuels Complex, about 30 miles west of Idaho Falls. The sodium-cooled reactor was used for research and testing new fuels and materials. Before it shut down in 1994, the reactor produced as many as 20 megawatts of power. CWI has been working to decommission the reactor and related facilities since 2009. Donahue said the next step is to

demolish a massive crane that was built inside the done, which can be seen from U.S. Highway 20. In May or April, the dome itself will come down. For some, the disappearing dome is bittersweet. Former EBR-II worker Sharon Laird said she would be disappointed to see it go. “You would come over the hill and start down and you saw that beautiful dome in the distance to the right,” Laird said. “It symbolized something.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Case Teams Up for Training, Erosion Abatement Project Case Construction Equipment, the National Wildlife Refuge Association, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and Team Rubicon teamed up for an equipment operator training and erosion abatement project at the Laguna Atascosa National Wildlife Refuge in Los Fresnos, Texas. The project achieved two primary goals: Certifying equipment operators with Team Rubicon to work on national wildlife refuges and performing much-needed erosion control at Laguna Atascosa, which sits on 97,000 acres bordering the Gulf of Mexico. Case provided six machines to the effort — three full-sized excavators and three skid steers — and Team Rubicon brought in 18 operators from across the United States for the training. For Case, the project is an extension of its Dire States infrastructure advocacy and awareness campaign. “Public parks and recreational areas are a critical and often overlooked part of American infrastructure,” said Brian Weisbaum, project manager — Dire States, Case. “Refuges and green spaces like Laguna Atascosa are important for

Projects tackled included rebuilding a boat launch, culvert installation and hauling stone for other erosion control efforts on the refuge. “Completing this training certifies a new wave of volunteers with Team Rubicon who will be able to operate equipment within the Refuge System,” said John Blitch, national heavy equipment coordinator with U.S. Fish and Wildlife. “We’re grateful to Team Rubicon for providing that manpower and to Case for providing the equipment that helped make this training possible.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Infrastructure Bill Worth $305 Billion Finally Passed, Signed OBAMA from page 1

sions, safety improvements and union demands. “In the end, there wasn’t really a philosophical problem here,” said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. “The question was, how could we pull together these disparate pieces into one mosaic that actually had a chance to get somewhere?” But Sen. Tom Carper, D-Del., a prominent supporter of increasing transportation spending, said the deals cut to win the bill’s passage caused him to reluctantly vote against it. “While this bill includes some good transportation policies, the way we pay for these policies is unsustainable and irresponsible, offering little more than a grab bag of budget gimmicks that will actually increase our deficit in the long run,” he said. One hallmark of the bill is the creation of new programs to focus federal aid on eliminating bottlenecks and increasing the capacity of highways designated as major freight corridors. The Transportation Department estimates the volume of freight traffic will increase 45 percent over the next 30 years. A big shortcoming in the bill, though, is how it’s all financed. The main source of revenue for transportation is the trust fund, which comes mostly from the 18.4-cents-agallon gasoline tax. That tax hasn’t been raised since 1993 even though transportation spending has increased. But raising the gas tax is viewed by many lawmakers as too politically risky. To make up the shortfall, the bill uses about $70 billion in mostly budget ploys, including one that would move $53 billion from the Federal Reserve Bank’s capital account to the general treasury. It’s counted as new money on paper, but is actually just a transfer of funds from one government account to another, federal budget experts said. Other items in the bill also don’t include the means to pay for them, including more than $10 billion over five years for Amtrak and other rail programs, $12 billion for mass transit and $1 billion for vehicle safety programs. The money for those programs remains subject to annual spending decisions by Congress. Among the bill’s losers are large banks, which would receive lower dividends from the Federal Reserve, with the savings used for transportation programs. Banking officials complained that banks shouldn’t be asked to foot the bill for highways and bridges. The airline and cruise ship industries com-

plained that their passengers also are being asked to pay for improvements unrelated to their travel. The bill ties customs fees to inflation and uses the increased revenue to offset the bill’s cost. It also directs the sale of 66 million barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve in order to raise $6.5 billion. The catch is the sales don’t start until 2023 — three years after the transportation bill it helps pay for has expired.

Senate Majority Leader

The trucking industry was able to persuade lawmakers to order the government to remove trucking company safety scores from a public Web site despite opposition from safety advocates. Industry officials say the government’s methodology is unfair. But safety advocates won inclusion of a longsought provision requiring rental car agencies to repair recalled cars and trucks before renting them. The Amalgamated Transit Union, which represents city bus drivers, won a provision requiring the government to direct transit agencies to take steps to protect bus drivers from assault, a growing problem. The Federal Transit Administration is required to consider whether local transit agencies provide bathroom breaks and access to bathrooms for bus drivers when evaluating the safety of the agencies. A provision sponsored by Rep. Dina Titus, a Nevada Democrat whose district includes Las Vegas, authorizes the creation of a national advisory committee made up of travel and tourism industry officials to develop a national strategy for ensuring that transportation policies address the needs of travelers. Another provision sought by the dairy industry and sponsored by upstate New York, Connecticut and Wisconsin lawmakers allows trucks hauling milk to exceed federal weight limits for interstate highways in some cases.

JCB Backhoe Loader to Help Clinton Foundation Initiative in East Africa A JCB 3DX backhoe will soon be in service in Iringa, Tanzania, as part of the Clinton Foundation’s agricultural development initiative for smallholder farmers in East Africa. The Clinton Foundation is a non-profit organization established by former U.S. President Bill Clinton to convene businesses, governments, NGOs and individuals to improve global health and wellness. The foundation’s agriculture initiative strives to “grow food to feed the world” through the education of soil utilization, yield and soil mapping, hybrid maize seeds, herbicides, crop protection and improved farming practices and processes. The foundation has partnered with JCB and dealer Machines and Tractors Tanzania to drive rural development in East Africa, where inadequate farming techniques and out-of-date equipment have caused insufficient output and failure to meet market demand. Machines and Tractors Tanzania’s parent company, Muscat Overseas, has been a JCB dealer for more than 40 years and is the market leader for agricultural equipment in the area. “We are very pleased that JCB equipment will be used for this initiative in Tanzania and look forward to the positive impact it will have on the community,” said Thom Peebles, vice president of marketing of JCB North America. “JCB has a long-standing philosophy of giving back to communities around the world and the Clinton Foundation development initiative ties in well with our efforts.”

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.)

The wedge ring and upper frame also have had additional improvements. Key features include the inner skirt being The TC1150 has a gross weight of 14 tons (12.7 t) with a nominal cone head diameter of 45.3 in. (115 cm).

better protected to accommodate for larger CSS increasing product size. The TC 1150 also have increased stroke clearance allowing for larger maximum CSS and tramp clearance. Key features to the mantel nut includes a smaller head nut resulting in less restrictive feed opening inclusion of burning/torch ring helps speed up mantle liner replacement. In addition, the new mantle liner top collar gives easier straight lift capability and eliminates need for welding on lifting lugs. The TC1150 has a gross weight of 14 tons (12.7 t) with a nominal cone head diameter of 45.3 in. (115 cm). Maximum feed size of medium course 7.5 in. (19 cm) and extra course 8.6 in.

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.

Two Phases…

Sennebogen Plans to Expand Factory in Southern Germany Sennebogen will expand its Plant II facility in southern Germany, by approximately 350,000 sq. ft. (35,000 sq m). The project also will include a new 67,000 sq. ft. (6,700 sq m) assembly and paint facility. The Plant II factory site is located nearby the Sennebogen head office and Plant I complex at the port of Straubing. Constantino Lannes, president of Sennebogen LLC, welcomed the announcement as good news for Sennebogen customers and dealers in the Americas, too. “Straubing Plant II is focused on production and testing for the larger machines in our line-up. We have seen increased demand for high capacity machines, so this investment shows that the factory will be ready to support future projects.” The factory expansion will be completed in two construction phases. For the first phase, already under way, a paved surface south of the current premises will provide a spacious shipping area for machines and components. It also will be the site for technical approval and testing of new equipment. The second phase, a new assembly and paint shop, will be built by the end of 2016. Erich Sennebogen, managing director of the firm, said, “As a family-owned company, we feel committed to long-term planning and to adjusting our production facilities to the market requirements of the future. This project ensures optimized logistics, enhanced reliability and an even better working environment for our team.” The new assembly and finishing expansion, part of phase 2, also will increase the plant’s quality control area and will feature a section dedicated to customizing machines for special customer requirements.

Screen USA Adds TROM512 to Its Trommel Screen Lineup Screen USA Inc. has introduced the newest model to its trommel screen line-up. The Screen USA TROM512 was developed with easy-access in mind for the screening market. Screen USA Inc. manufactures small and medium sized screening equipment for the soil and organic industries. Nested on seven acres in the quiet town of Smyrna, Ga., since 1973, Screen USA has found success in the portable screening industry. According to Rick Cohen, owner of Screen USA Inc., “We have been working on this new machine vigorously for the past year and we are extremely proud of how it came out.” Cohen emphasized the largest issue with the existing medium sized trommel screens on the market is accessibility. “The second issue is that manufacturers are trying to offer a lesser expensive machine so they are cutting corners on strength and quality to deliver the most inexpensive price.”

Screen USA’s TROM512, proves accessible with two large hinged doors that open up on each side to give complete access to the trommel screen and drive system. Once the doors are open, the entire drum is visible and can be easily removed by pulling it out the side of the machine. In addition to the screen door, three doors (one on each side) allow complete accessibility to the engine compartment. The TROM512 also was designed with access doors for all bearings, so maintenance is easy. The Screen USA TROM512 is equipped with a 3.2 cu. yd. (2.4 cu m) hopper, 39 in. (99 cm) wide variable speed feeder, 5 by 12 ft. (1.5 by 3.6 m) trommel screen and a built-on fines conveyor. An optional built-on overs conveyor also is available. A 60 hp Cat engine is at the heart of the machine. This trommel screen is offered both on wheels and on tracks. “We anticipate the trackmounted trommel to be our number one seller, however, time will

tell,” said Cohen. “As for price, Screen USA is selling factory direct to eliminate the typical 20 to 25 percent mark-up of the dealer. This allows us to offer the best quality at a considerable discount.” For more information, call 770/433-2440 or email rick@screenusa.net.

Terex Fuchs Introduces Fuel Efficient MHL350 F Series The Terex Fuchs MHL350 F Series material handler includes an efficient Tier IV Final (Stage IV) engine and refinements to the hydraulic system and upper carriage design that elevate operating efficiency and machine reliability. Purpose-built to withstand the extreme operating demands of scrap, waste and recycling applications, the new MHL350 F handler offers two different stick/boom configurations to meet customer needs: standard 52.5-ft. (16-m) reach and optional 48.2-ft. (14.6m) multi-purpose stick that includes a second hydraulic cylinder to aid in sorting applications. The machine’s refined hydraulics package delivers quick response of attachment operation and fast work cycles, even under heavy loads. The MHL350 F handler’s hydraulically driven fans for oil, water and intercooler automatically control fan speed to continuously maintain the optimum operating temperature range, even in extreme heat. A new upper carriage design better protects the hydraulic and fuel tanks, while larger vent openings in the metal cowling increase airflow to the engine area to keep the machine running cooler. Powered by a new Tier IV Final (Stage IV) engine, the powerful turbocharged 215 hp (160 kW) diesel engine uses selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology to deliver an advanced, reliable and fuel-efficient method for meeting today’s emissions regulations. The system design eliminates the burner used in active filter regeneration and employs passive regeneration of the diesel particulate filter (DPF) to save on fuel consumption. All new F Series Terex Fuchs material handlers come standard with Eco Mode operation to further reduce fuel consumption and lower long-term operating costs. Control of this feature is located on the machine’s multifunction button panel and allows the operator to match engine power to the task at hand. Operating in the “Eco Mode” or “Eco+ Mode” setting limits engine horsepower to 90 percent or 80 percent respectively, delivering up to 36 percent fuel savings, according to the manufacturer. “While Terex Fuchs material

(16-m) reach and optional 48.2-ft. (14.6-m) multi-purpose stick that includes a second hydraulic cylinder to aid in sorting applications.

handlers are designed to conserve fuel at 100 percent engine speed,” said Terex Fuchs Technical Sales Manager, Steve Brezinski, “Eco Mode allows the operator to finetune power demand based on the need to increase machine flexibility in reducing costs.” Now joystick controlled, the machine’s hydraulically elevating cab raises the operator’s maximum eye level to 18.4 ft. (5.6 m) to substantially improve the operator’s sightline when loading/unloading high-wall trailers and rail cars for increased efficiency. Inside the cab, a new joystick design offers proportional control of grab rotation and open/close functions, places the most important machine functions at the operator’s finger-

tips, and leaves multiple space openings for customized options. An expanded, 7-in. (17.8 cm) touchscreen display advances operating convenience of the MHL350 F handler and displays images from the integrated reversing camera. The machine’s new standard rear-view camera offers night vision to improve vision while operating the machine in low ambient light conditions. A new USB charger and additional storage space enhances operating convenience. When equipped with Terex Telematics, the MHL350 F material handler further improves machine efficiency, productivity and uptime. The system tracks critical operating data such as operat-

ing hours, fuel level and consumption, machine location, service events, and maintenance notifications and transmits this data to a secured, password-protected Web site where it can be accessed at any time and from any location in the world where internet access is available. The user-friendly Web site reports all the data in a logical, easily viewable and customizable fashion. Machine service event reporting can be tailored to provide alerts to specific key technicians who can address the situation. The Terex Fuchs MHL350 F material handler boasts many of the same features found on previous machines. Its double-row slewing ring design disperses forces over two rows of bearings to

improve component service life and durability. Rigid hydraulic pipes on the stick, boom and undercarriage offer protection from damage. Steel plates shielding the hydraulic lines at the end of the stick offer additional protection against damage to improve system reliability. Inverted hydraulic cylinder mounting provides protection during trailer and rail car loading/unloading and reduces exposure to debris and moisture to improve longevity, according to the manufacturer.

IROCK RDS-15 Mobile Crusher Features Return Conveyor IROCK Crushers offers a RDS-15 horizontal impact crushing plant. As the name suggests, the RDS — rapid deployment system — provides exceptional portability and rapid set-up time, according to the manufacturer. The RDS-15 is a versatile, compact crushing and screening system that provides increased efficiency and the precision to produce a uniform product. While it can process a variety of products, the RDS-15 is ideal for processing smaller materials such as reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP). Powered by a 350-hp Caterpillar C-9 ACERT Tier III engine, the unit can process up to 350 tons per hour (317.5 t). The entire plant is self-contained, with on-board power supplying full plant operation. For added convenience, the unit features three outlets for powering optional auxiliary conveyors to sort and stack processed materials. Further, a P.T. electronic hydraulic clutch reduces power loss and increases fuel efficiency. The unit’s closed circuit design gives operators the option to recirculate material requiring further sizing. By closing the flop gate, the two decks can feed onto the 24-in. (61 cm) return conveyor, which drops the material back into the crusher. This design enables 20 percent more production than other machines. The boosted efficiency equates to greater production in less time, lower labor costs, less fuel consumption and lower operation expenses. This feature is ideal for applications such as asphalt recycling, where contractors commonly need a consistent half-inch product, according to the manufacturer. The machine features a 5- by 14-ft. (1.5 by 4.2 m), doubledeck huck-bolted screen frame. By opening the flop gate, the machine can process, screen and separate up to three different sizes of materials, two sized and one crusher run.

Powered by a 350-hp Caterpillar C-9 ACERT Tier III engine, the unit can process up to 350 tons per hour (317.5 t). The entire plant is self-contained, with onboard power supplying full plant operation.

Within the full-length fabricated steel plate hopper, the unit features a heavy-duty, 40-in. by 14-ft. (101 cm by 4.2 m) vibrating grizzly feeder. The two-step, tapered grizzly removes fines and only allows materials that need to be sized into the crusher, reducing potential wear on the crusher and further boosting efficiency. While operators have an option to add IROCK’s Hydraset Hopper, the unit is compact and light enough to be transported without the removal of the hopper. The hydraset hopper is designed to hydraulically attach and remove the hopper/feeder unit in one piece, with just one person, so it does not require the use of any outside lifting device. Performance and production are further enhanced by IROCK’s four-bar impactor design. The RDS-15 provides the ideal balance inside the crushing chamber to optimize production and ease

uneven wear on the blow bars. Blow bars can be removed, flipped and re-installed for a second lifecycle. Adjustable aprons are used to control the size of the crushed material. IROCK’s rock box uses a shelf system with AR-400 steel wear bar. An innovative alternative to discharge chutes found on similar units, the rock box allows crushed material to build up and act as a wear liner, effectively reducing maintenance and cutting down on costly labor and wear parts. IROCK incorporates specialized AR-400 steel plate liners for each material transfer point, which provides enhanced durability over rubber liners used by other crusher manufacturers, according to the manufacturer. To reduce cleaning and maintenance requirements, the RDS-15 features a standard dust suppression system. For further protection from dust and vibration of normal operating conditions, operators can remove the machine’s control panel for operation from up to 30 ft. (9 m) away. For ultimate convenience, portability and quick set-up, the mobile crusher can be hooked up to a truck and hauled as one unit. In addition, catwalks enable easier screen changeouts and provide convenient access to crucial maintenance and cleaning points. IROCK is known for its heavy-duty components, highquality units and exceptional customer service. The company has convenient 24-hour online parts look up and ordering, fast delivery and live service support from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. EST.

facilities, as well as all products built in the United States. We want to do everything possible to create jobs and grow the American economy,” said Morbark President Jim Shoemaker Jr. “AEM’s ‘I Make America’ campaign has provided

us with an opportunity to empower our workforce and give them opportunities to contribute their voices to important issues before Congress that can directly affect the stability of their jobs and our country’s ability to compete glob-

ally.” To be eligible for AEM’s Pillar of the Industry award, a member company must meet a series of qualifications that capture the many ways in which manufacturers can become involved in their

communities and take action in state and national issues. Notable activities in which employees of Morbark participated include a legislative fly-in to lobby Michigan representatives for their support of legislation to reauthorize the funding of the EX-IM Bank and the passage of a long-term highway bill, as well as an “I Make America” supporter sign-up at the company’s summer family picnic. AEM formally honored winners of the award at its annual conference in Key Biscayne, Fla. The awards coincided with the fifth anniversary of AEM’s successful “I Make America” campaign, AEM’s principal grassroots advocacy program, which engages AEM member companies and their employees to become champions for the industry on manufacturing issues.

SNWA Builds Pumping Station for Lake Mead’s Intake No. 3 SNWA from page 12

is essentially going to replace all of our pumping capacity for the future. The station will only operate at the low lake level, between elevations 1060 feet to 875 feet. At 1050 feet and up we can operate station #1 and at 1000, we can operate pumping station No. 2. The new station gives us the flexibility if there is no more water going through the dam.” The ongoing decline of Lake Mead is serious and heightens the need for the new infrastructures. The SNWA cannot delve any deeper into the lake to supply water for the area. “This is the lowest point that we can pump,” said Moonin, “because the new intake is at elevation 860 feet and these pumps will be able to operate at 875 feet, which is only 15 feet above. That’s when we would start getting some vortexing over the intake.” The drilling operations will encounter highly fractured and faulted metamorphic rock. A staff of 20 engineers and inspectors, plus various consultants, is assisting Moonin. Parsons Corporation is taking on the role of the program manager. The pumping station will be 525 ft. (160.02 m) deep, reaching to an operating pumping elevation of 875 ft. (266.7 m) above sea level. That is approximately 52 stories underground. It has two basic levels: the forebay at the bottom, and the supporting equipment at the top. The pumps will sit just below the 875 ft. elevation mark. There also is an electrical building that is about 11,000-sq. ft. The station can be operated and monitored by personnel on site and remotely. It will be connected to the SNWA’s SCADA system. To link the pumping station to the existing water network, 4,000 ft. (1,219.2 m) of pipe — two lines, along with two discharge aqueducts, will be installed in the next few years. “The pipes will be fabricated at a diameter and have welded joint,” said Moonin, “so we don’t expect any leaks. We’re just now discussing the pipe specifications with the manufacturers and looking at the different pipe materials.” Barnard construction crews have been on site since May.

“We’ve been performing preconstruction services for the SNWA,” said Jordan Hoover, Barnard’s project manager, “which involves working directly with their design engineer to help finalize and develop a constructible product and we have been able to analyze the construction risk and select optimized means and methods. We try to prepare in every way possible.” Hoover’s team will drill and blast to excavate the access shaft that will be lined with concrete and then create the 400 ft. forbay cavern via a drill and shoot method. The drilling of the 34 well shafts will be done from the surface by blind bore drilling. The construction of the above-ground pump station will be negotiated in a future contract. The shaft excavation, which should take three years to complete, has to be as precise as possible. “We’ll be drilling 10-foot production rounds — loading and shooting — and then we do a mucking cycle to excavate out the shot material that is hoisted to the surface and dumped,” Hoover said. “We then provide temporary ground support in the rock and repeat the process. In strategic increments we’ll suspend the excavation and install the concrete liner.” Encountering the large fault and smaller ones will be an ongoing challenge. “Especially the large one and those that are bearing of water,” said Hoover. “To be able to predict and intercept them during the excavation process, we’ll be doing a pre-excavation water control probing and grouting program at 100foot intervals. The probe holes will intercept the water and the grouting system will help seal off the flowing water and consolidate any features that are groutable. “The 34 well shafts will be drilled concurrent with the access shaft excavation,” he added. “They will be drilled from the surface using a blind bore drilling method. The shafts will be lined with a steel liner once they are completed. Once those are complete, we will excavate out the rock directly beneath the well shafts in the forbay chamber.” The material from the shaft

excavation, cavern and tunnel work — more than 150,000 tons (136,077 t) of rock, will be used on site to help provide fill areas, develop more yard and site for the pump station, and create a viewshed berm around the completed pump station. The berm, because the station is in a national park, will shield it from view and give the area a more natural appearance. The paved road that Vegas Tunnel Contractors built for the intake project will be used by Barnard to provide clean access to the job site for personnel, construction materials, and vehicles. The work will be 24 hour days, via three shifts. “At peak we anticipate more than 120 craft employees working on the project, as well as 80 subcontractor personnel,” said Hoover. Subcontractors on the project include North American Drillers for blind bore drilling. Barnard is still exploring its concrete ready mix options of either batching onsite or utilizing local ready mix plants. Air will be provided to the crews working in the cavern by a site ventilation system. “Additional precautions include back-up power for life safety systems underground” said Hoover. “Mine rescuers and re-breathers also are on site as an additional safety precaution. The underground monitor detects CO2 levels and air flow to ensure a safe work environment. Barnard onsite safety team and superintendents lead these efforts every day onsite.” Crews also are being trained to protect wildlife, including the endangered desert tortoise. “We are in a pretty remote environment and we’re constantly aware and monitoring for endangered species,” said Hoover. “This also will bring us into contact with everything from scorpions and other insects (some poisonous) to coyotes and roadrunners. We’re making sure to provide protection to the crew and that we’re minimally disrupting nature.” Barnard has a corporate safety program and a site-specific one also is being developed that will be assisted by a safety team and educators, which Hoover said, will “make sure that we proving a safe work environment on a daily

basis.” He added that a work site plan has been developed for all the facilities that are needed. Hoover and Barnard have a lot of experience on such projects, including a 2010 SNWA project that was part of the third intake system, which had Barnard construct the Intake #2 connection and modification — a 375 ft. (114.3 m) deep shaft and installation of an isolation gate and hoist. At this point, Barnard is planning out the complicated and varied operation, and that includes close cooperation with the SNWA in terms of sharing information and developing contract terms. Hoover is the first to recognize that the success of the project depends upon a team effort. “We have a full staff of field engineers, department managers, a general superintendent and shift superintendents, crew foremen and craft personnel,” he said. “They are the ones who are constructing this project every day. It’s a complicated and challenging project and everything through conception to design, engineering, and construction, and ultimately its commissioning and future operations, requires extensive consideration to succeeded. As a contractor we’ll have more than 20 staff members helping to manage and oversee the construction process.” The explosives to be used are pre-packed and overseen, supervised and detonated on each shift by an assigned blaster-in-charge who is certified with a blasting license by the state of Nevada. The amount of explosives and where each blast is placed will be determined by rock and soil conditions and the effect that is desired. “We look at that very carefully and the availability of different product,” said Hoover. “Ultimately we’ll develop a detailed blasting plan that includes the number of hole depths and products loaded in both production and trim holes. The results will be continuously monitored and may be adjusted to develop optional shots each round of production. This is what we have been looking at for the last three months and we’ll be doing that every day for the next three years of construction. “The engineers and geologists

have produced a geotechnical baseline report and that has allowed us to develop anticipated approaches to the ground,” he added, “which allows us to develop our construction techniques and durations and a realistic construction approach schedule and costs.” The equipment to be brought in by Barnard includes a Liebherr 150 ton (136 t) crane to provide most of the mucking and hoisting for the shaft and cavern excavation work, two Atlas Copco hydraulic drills for drilling the blast rounds, a small Caterpillar excavator for the excavations of the mucked material, a Normet shotcrete robot for the shotcrete installation and application, and in the forebay cavern, a drill jumbo and a LHD for mucking. Barnard’s closest equipment yard and shop is 250 mi. (402.3 km) from the site. “We will have a support crew of mechanics that will provide equipment maintenance and fabrication abilities on site,” said Hoover. “It will be a mix of experience with traditional heavy civil equipment and with drilling equipment.” Barnard has been planning for the project for several months. “Because the project site is somewhat remote, our equipment department has to prepare for equipment breakdowns and backup equipment” Hoover said. “We maintain an inventory of spare parts and always maintain contact with our equipment vendors about the availability of parts in the event of a breakdown. “The equipment used underground — Cat mini-excavator, Atlas Copco drills, and LHD — will experience the most daily wear and tear when used underground up to three shifts per-day,” he added. “These are the pieces of equipment that we really focus on having back-ups and are prepared to fix in the event of a breakdown. In addition to repairs, our on site mechanics perform all of the equipment routine maintenance and services. We consider our underground equipment to be a key to success on this project.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG

‘Between the Road and the Load’ — the Right Trailer By Troy Geisler SPECIAL TO CEG

Long before a single load is booked or any wheels turn, someone — usually a fleet manager — needs to determine exactly what is going to separate the road and the load. There’s a lot riding on this decision because, as much as some would like to think otherwise, a trailer is never just a trailer. It can be manufactured to many different specifications, with multiple raw material options, dozens of load and geographical considerations, various top speed requirements and hundreds of possible axle configurations coming into play. And it all comes down to one objective — the ideal trailer for an operation’s specific loads. To select the right trailer, the one that will require the least amount of maintenance, provide the greatest lifespan and deliver the highest possible return on investment, it is vital to understand the most important factor of all — capacity. 50 Tons in the Making There are five contributors to capacity ratings. They apply to any kind of open trailer, from flat and step decks to lowbeds, and each can be varied to meet a carrier’s specifications. It begins, of course, with the

materials used to build the trailer, specifically their sizes and weights. From there, capacity encompasses the overall weight that a trailer can carry, the area of the deck in which it can carry that weight, the speed at which the trailer will generally travel and the safety factor. To make an apples-to-apples comparison, consider one 50-ton (45 t) lowbed alongside another 50-ton lowbed. Because, just as a trailer is never just a trailer, not all 50-ton lowbeds are created equal. • Load Concentration: Half Deck, Full Utilization There are more than 50 manufacturers of lowbed heavy-haul trailers in North America, and they apply several methods of rating the capacity of their trailers. Since there is no industry-set or government-mandated system, it’s up to every buyer to be in tune with the method each manufacturer uses before making a purchase decision. A key difference between manufacturers’ ratings comes in load concentration, or the length of the deck that can handle the rated weight. Obviously, a 26-ft. (7.9 m), 50-ton lowbed can haul 50 tons. But how much of the deck those 50 tons occupy is just as important as the weight itself. Whereas one trailer might need the entire length of the deck to be rated at 50 tons, another can be rated for 50 tons in a 16-ft. (4.8 m) span, and another

If the payload is a 100,000-lb. (45,395 kg) excavator that’s only 13 ft. (3.9 m) long, a trailer rated for the entire deck length, or even for 16 ft. (4.8 m), won’t be right for the load. The ideal trailer will be one rated at half the deck length. These ratings give a more realistic indication of the concentrated loads the trailer will be able to handle safely and without structural failure.

can handle that same weight in half the deck length. For example, a 26-ft., 50-ton lowbed might be rated for the trailer’s entire span with equal weight distribution. In that case, the trailer would need to be hauling materials that run the entire length of the trailer, such as long steel poles, lumber or concrete culvert sections. However, if the payload is a 100,000-lb. (45,359 kg) excavator that’s only 13 ft. (3.9 m) long, a trailer rated for the entire deck length, or even for 16 ft., won’t be right for the load. Even though the load is only 50 tons, that trailer will be overloaded because the weight will not span the entire length of

Carriers can vary gooseneck lengths in the front to achieve the proper steer weight and drive axle weight. Carriers also can alter the distances between axles and axle groups to hit max weights and remain in compliance with various state laws.

the deck; making it too concentrated for the area the excavator covers. For a trailer that’s rated at full deck length or 16 ft. to safely handle the excavator, it would likely need to be rated at 55 or 60 tons (49 to 54 t). So again, using the 13-ft., 100,000-pound excavator as the payload, the ideal trailer will be one rated at half the deck length. Trailers rated for half the deck length can carry a specified load in just that, half the length of the deck. These ratings give a more realistic indication of the concentrated loads the trailer will be able to handle safely and without structural failure. In addition, manufacturers who build trailers with half-

deck ratings often do so with a two-point rigid load base specifically for the tire spacing, or hot spots, of large equipment and heavy machinery. • Load Distribution: Scaling Out How a load is distributed over the deck and the axles can be just as important as the overall weight rating. However, even though the trailers will be operating in the United States, the states are not very united when it comes to axle weight laws and regulations. All across the country, the laws and regulations related to weight change from state to state. Companies operating in Indiana see TRAILER page 56

To make an apples-to-apples comparison, consider one 50-ton lowbed alongside another 50-ton lowbed. Because, just as a trailer is never just a trailer, not all 50ton lowbeds are created equal.

Plan for True Capacity Before Buying Your Next Trailer TRAILER from page 55

deal with one set of laws and regulations, but when they cross the border into Ohio they run into entirely different set of regulations. Pennsylvania has yet another distinct collection of rules of the road and so on along the truck’s route. Fleet managers need to be aware of, and plan for, variances between states and regions where their trailers will be used. It’s important to have the proper trailer configuration to make the load distribution work for a fleet’s particular area of operation. Manufacturers bear some responsibility, too, and should work with buyers to define not just the best trailer for the cargo those buyers will be carrying, but also the best axle configurations for maximizing the load in every one of the states they’ll be hauling through. Clearly, it’s impossible to max out a trailer’s capacity in every state, but the goal of most interstate heavy-haul carriers is to get a trailer as close to the maximum as possible across all the states where the carrier intends to operate. There are many ways to achieve the best possible weight distribution over the axles. It may be as simple as adding a fourth flip axle or as complicated as adding two or three axles and spreading them apart to make sure they can each accept an equal amount of weight from the payload. And there are other possibilities in between depending on the specific state’s regulations and the nature of the load. For example, carriers can vary gooseneck lengths in the front to achieve the proper steer weight and drive axle weight. Carriers also can alter the distances between axles and axle groups to hit max weights and remain in compliance with various state laws. With an East Coast trailer, for example, they can add shims to a rigid spread bar or, if the trailer has a nitro version of a spreader bar, use hydraulics to vary the weight distribution. Yet another way is to move the load closer to one end or the other to properly distribute weight over the axles. And, finally, a carrier can use a jeep dolly to add extra axles, thereby lowering the per-axle weight distribution. • Speed: How Slow Can You Go? Another capacity determinant is speed. While some manufacturers rate their trailers at 55 mph, others rate them at 65 mph. The slower a rig travels, the less added weight or stress is placed on the trailer. That’s due to the fact that, while road dynamics such as potholes, railroad tracks and so on still come into play, the impact on the trailer decreases along with the speed. However, sometimes a 55 mph rating is not as realistic for a carrier as a 65 mph rating. The key is to purchase trailers that will perform at a fleet’s normal operating speeds.

With an East Coast trailer, carriers can add shims to a rigid spread bar or, if the trailer has a nitro version of a spreader bar, use hydraulics to vary the weight distribution.

Apitong decking provides a tougher, longer lasting wood in comparison to other varieties, such as oak or pine. Tightly woven and incredibly dense, apitong is less susceptible to chipping and cracking and provides some amount of traction in comparison to a smooth metal surface.

For the most capacity and smallest impact on the trailer weight, some manufacturers use a T1 material with 100,000 psi minimum yield. T1 not only has maximum strength versus ductility, but also equates to a lighter, stronger trailer frame over other materials.

• Safety: A Crucial Multiplier A trailer’s safety rating also comes into play when discussing capacity. Without understanding the safety rating, it’s difficult for a carrier to get a clear, comprehensive picture of true capacity. A safety rating is an indicator of how much stress a trailer can safely handle. It encompasses the strength of the raw materials and components that a manufacturer has put into the trailer’s design and construction, how the beams and cross members are configured and so on. A widely accepted average magnification of payload weight on a trailer due to road dynamics is 1.8 to 1 ratio. When a driver is rolling down the road, the truck is hitting chuckholes, bouncing over bumps and crossing railroad tracks along the way. On average, the stress placed on a 50-tonrated trailer by a 50-ton load when the rig hits those bumps, chucks and tracks equals 1.8 times 50 tons, or 90 tons. It’s important to keep in mind that the 1.8 multiplier is only an average. On any given haul, the stress placed on the trailer can go above that level multiple times. If no cushion is built in to the trailer to handle those spikes in stress, there will be more potential for longterm, progressive structural damage. Since there is no universally prescribed level for safety ratings, they vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. They range from a safety factor of 1.8 to 1, which allows for no margin, to an industry high of 2.5 to 1, which is considered an ample cushion for even the most extreme road dynamics a trailer might encounter. Not only does the safety rating tell a carrier how strong his trailer is, it’s also a very good indicator of potential life. The greater the difference between the static design safety factor, be it 2.5 to 1, 2 to 1 or some other

factor, and the dynamic 1.8 average multiplier, the longer one can expect a trailer’s useful life expectancy to be. Most trailer manufacturers do not like to advertise safety ratings, often for good reason. To understand why, it’s helpful first to comprehend what a safety rating is not. A safety rating should never be used to determine how much weight can be added over the capacity rating and still keep the load, the driver and other drivers safe. In other words, a 2.5 to 1 safety rating on a 50-ton lowbed should not be used to justify loading a trailer with 125 tons of cargo. Just as the deck rating indicates, that trailer can safely handle a 50-ton payload under dynamic conditions. • Materials: The Sum of the Parts Safety factors are strongly related to the quality of the components incorporated into the trailer, and that gets down to the nittygritty of the steel and the deck material. Manufacturers have several options when choosing steel. For the most capacity and smallest impact on the trailer weight, some manufacturers use a T1 material with 100,000 psi minimum yield. T1 not only has maximum strength versus ductility, but also equates to a lighter, stronger trailer frame over other materials. A trailer’s decking is continually exposed to the elements, making durable decking with a long wear life also crucial. Apitong decking provides a tougher, longer lasting wood in comparison to other varieties, such as oak or pine. Tightly woven and incredibly dense, apitong is less susceptible to chipping and cracking and provides some amount of traction in comparison to a smooth metal surface. Overload at Your Own — and Others’ — Risk Sometimes trailer owners or operators

don’t completely understand the capacity rating and mistakenly put more weight on the trailer than it is built to handle, or more weight in a concentrated area than it can handle. Overloading a trailer once is not likely to make it break. Overloading it twice probably won’t either. But do it consistently over time and eventually it will likely fail. When a trailer breaks, the manufacturer hears about it. But often the complaint will be that a 50-ton trailer broke when it was hauling less than a full payload. For example, a 50-ton trailer might break when it’s only hauling a 40-ton payload. The reason is not in that 40-ton load, but the number of times the trailer previously was overloaded and by how much each overload exceeded the yield strength of the trailer’s load-bearing beams and cross members. Yield strength refers to the amount of stress that the steel can withstand and still return to its original shape when unloaded. The first time a trailer is overloaded, the steel will return to something close to the shape it was in when it came off of the manufacturing line, but not exactly to that original shape. Each time it’s overloaded, the steel will return to something less than the shape it was in the time before. Eventually, the steel, and therefore the trailer, will break. So in our example, even though the trailer only carried a 40-ton payload, it is likely that it had been overloaded to some extent at one or more points in its past. That’s when the damage was done, and that is what ultimately caused the failure. The steel got weaker and weaker and, on the day the trailer failed, it happened to be rolling with 40 tons on the deck. Help to Be Had It can be tempting to look at a trailer’s capacity rating and stop there. But for a true sense of how much a trailer can handle and how it will hold up under the stresses of a specific operation, with its individualized loads, geographies, weights and other variables, fleet managers need to consider everything that goes into that rating. Purchasing the right trailers for updating a fleet can be complicated and, clearly, the decision is an important one. But there is help available. Many manufacturers have sales people who know capacity from top to bottom and can help fleet managers select exactly the right trailer with the optimal combination of load concentration, load distribution, speed and safety rating for specific applications and load types. And having that knowledge about each specification will help ensure an investment that leads to a long, smooth ride.
