Terex CC 2800 Crawler Crane Quickly Changes Power Station Filters Between Jobs Heavy crane lift specialists, Havator of Tornio, Finland, maintains a heavy booking schedule for one of its oldest, more versatile and most reliable cranes in its fleet, a 2001-vintage Terex CC 2800 lattice boom crawler crane. Often the 600-tonne (660-US-ton) crane moves from job to job, never receiving a reprieve at the lifting company’s home office. Last lifting season is a prime example of just how much business Havator books for the CC 2800 crane. Over a relatively short period of time, the company moved the versatile Terex crane three times, logging over 350 km (217 mi), for three very different applications. Havator first used the crawler crane in an industrial application, changing 62-tonne (68-US-ton) process washers at a paper mill in Pietarsaari, Finland. Crew members then loaded the crane on 15 trailers, plus three heavy haulers

for the crane superstructure and crawlers, and led the convoy 250 km (155 mi) north over a three-day journey to Oulu for changing electric plant filters at the Toppila Power Station. The third leg of the trip saw the crane moving another 100 km (62 mi) north by land and then barged to an island for a windmill project to switch out turbine gears. “The CC 2800 crane is fast to assemble and disassemble, quite easy to transport and flexible enough to be used on many different projects,” says Logistics Manager for Havator, Matti Simola. “We use it for industrial and windmill projects, but the lumber industry is where we use it most. This is just one of 60 Terex cranes we have in our fleet,” he continues. Low Load & Confined By far the most challenging of the three projects was the power station job. The four, 20-m (65.6ft) tall, 20-year-old filters

offered some excitement for Havator’s lifting crew and the CC 2800 crane. “The new filters weigh approximately 200 t (220 US tons) each,” explains Simola, “but the weight and condition of the old filters can be a bit of a mystery.” One of the largest peatfired power stations in the world, the Toppila Power Station generates 210 MW of electric power and 340 MW of thermal power. The four massive air filters pull from the airstream the particulate matter generated by the peat-burning process. The filters are changed on a 20-year cycle. “The filters are typically covered with dust, rust and other items, which can increase the filters’ weight,” comments Simola. The 600-t (660-US-ton) capacity Terex crane was up to the challenge posed by the unknown. Havator configured the crane with its heavy boom segments, constructed the 42 m (138 ft) long main boom and

added a 30-m (98-ft) luffing jib to reach the required 65-m (213-ft) hook height for filter removal. To help boost the crane’s lift capacities, Havator’s crew added 160 t (176 US tons) of counterweight to the main body of the CC 2800 crawler crane and another 275 t (303 US tons) onto the variableradius Superlift tray. “We used the Terex Superlift wagon with wheels, which allows the tray to smoothly move back and forth as the crane works,” says Simola. “This helps to boost lift capacities as well as efficiencies.” Since space was at a premium at the electric plant site, Havator chose the short boom/jib configuration and worked at a relatively narrow radius, ranging from 24- to 27-m (79- to 89-ft). “At the minimum radius in this configuration, the CC 2800 crane offers a lift capacity of up to 227 t (250 US tons) and 205.5 t (226.5 US-ton) capacity at the maximum working radius, so we built in extra lift capacity to account for the possibility of additional weight with the used filters,” adds Simola. Once on site, Havator’s

limit. Even though the crane’s weight is spread over its large crawler tracks’ 31-m2 (332-ft2) area, the CC 2800 crane Continued on page 6

John Foreman

(Feb. 23, 1947 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Nov. 22, 2015)

John was born and raised in Belfast, Northern Ireland. A true adventurer he moved to Canada with his wife and two young sons in 1976. Shortly thereafter he started selling Powerscreen equipment in Ontario, where to this day his old customers still ask about him. John moved west to British Columbia in 1984 to set up his own Powerscreen dealership (Powerscreen of Canada Western Ltd.). John was a true pioneer in the mobile screening and crushing market and was the first to start selling track mounted screening and crushing equipment in B.C. and Alberta.

Chilliwack club assisting with their many fundraising activities that supported not only his local community but also their many causes throughout the world. Most of all John cherished his family and loved spending time with them, whether holidaying in Mexico, skiing at Hemlock or relaxing by the oceanside in Gibsons. He especially enjoyed spending time with his seven grandchildren. John has left a lasting legacy in the equipment industry in B.C. with Foreman Equipment Ltd., which is run by his two sons Adam and Ryan and a long time staff of employees that shared his vision of growth and outstanding service to the industry. John Foreman was a pioneer in the aggregate industry in Canada. Right from his first days of business in BC, John was a tremendous supporter of the Supply Post and we were deeply saddened to hear of his sudden passing. We wish the Foreman family our condolences. b

John was also a founding member of the B.C. Stone, Sand & Gravel Association, formerly the Aggregate Producers Association and a strong advocate for the aggregate industry in B.C. An avid musician John had a passion for playing drums and enjoyed performing with his classic rock band as well as with the local Chilliwack Rotary Club band. John was also a collector of classic British cars and was always keeping an eye out for a gem that needed polishing, especially Jaguars. A proud Rotarian John also worked with his local Source: Foreman family

The used filters were placed on a special Havator trailer that carried them over to the assigned storage location, approximately 300 m (984 ft) from the lift area.

could not reach the relatively low load limit for the job. “We had to strictly adhere to the ground load pressure limit, because of the risk of damaging the many pipes and canals running under the ground,” explains Simola. “We placed multiple special kinds of pontoon plates under the lifting/ driving area. They are approximately 6.5-m-long by 3.5-m-wide by 0.6-mthick (21.3- x 11.5- x 2.0-ft).” For contractors that often face applications with low ground load pressure restrictions, Terex offers 1.8-m (4.9-ft) wide crawler tracks, so weight can be disbursed over a wider area. Over the next week and a half, Havator’s two

After the Kemi windmill project and an extended period away from the office, the CC 2800 crane made its way back to Havator’s Torino yard for a scheduled inspection. “We had Clemens Marx (Field Technician for Terex Cranes) visit our office to conduct a thorough, 10-year inspection of our CC 2800 crane,” mentions Simola. “Based on his findings, we renovated the winches, boom sections, engine, sheaves, bearings and pendants, and it’s now operating like a new crane.” b Source: Terex

Manitou Introduces Mustang 550Z Compact Excavator Since entering the excavator market in 1987, Mustang has focused on providing the right mix of compact excavators for the market. The brand new addition to Mustang’s compact excavator line, the 550Z, enhances their North American excavator offering with its 5.5 metric ton size. This new model provides excellent performance while lowering fuel consumption and operating costs. The new 550Z is equipped with a 47.6 hp (35.5 kW) Yanmar Tier IV-certified, turbocharged diesel engine which features an electronic throttle for precise control. Cost savings are made possible with the ECO mode and auto deceleration features. When activated by the flip of a switch inside the cab, ECO mode will reduce the engine speed by 10% without sacrificing power, while auto deceleration decreases the engine speed to idle after four seconds without hydraulic move-

ment. These two features provide a combined result of 20% reduction in fuel consumption. The operator’s station has many features to enhance productivity and controllability. The controls on the 550Z include a proportional auxiliary hydraulic rocker switch which enhances attachment options. This allows the operator to adjust the hydraulic flow for optimal attachment performance. The operator can easily select standard ISO or an optional backhoe control pattern with a turn of a mechanical lever. A boom offset swing of 68 degrees in both directions allows for digging a square hole without repositioning the machine. An integrated digital display located in a highly-visible area features recordable maintenance history with adjustable time intervals and reminders. The display unit also records hours used for the

past 90 days and can be monitored without starting the engine. An angle blade with float and bolt-on cutting edge is a factory installed option. Using the rocker switch on the blade lever, the hydraulic angle blade can be angled 25 degrees to push material aside as the machine moves forward, eliminating the need for repetitive repositioning. The blade can be simultaneously angled and raised or lowered to reduce the amount of time backfilling. The operator’s station offers multiple ergonomic and convenience features. A 4-way adjustable seat offers custom height, weight and backrest positions with a retractable belt. An optional cab enclosure, with heat or heat/air-conditioning systems, provides comfort and protection in extreme weather conditions. The front window can be stowed overhead for additional air flow when weather permits, and also increases visibility and communication with bystanders when needed.

Peterbilt Seat-Integrated Rollover Protection In Production Now in production for Peterbilt’s flagship onhighway Model 579 and vocational Model 567 is the RollTek protection system integrated with the premium Atlas II driver seats, Peterbilt Motors Company recently announced. “The RollTek safety system helps protect drivers in the event of a rollover,” said Scott Newhouse, Peterbilt Chief Engineer. “A sensor located under the seat constantly monitors the angular position of the vehicle and activates when it detects an imminent rollover. When activated, RollTek deploys side-roll airbags, tightens the safety belt and lowers the seat to help reduce injury risk and maximize safety for operators.” The Atlas II seat with the RollTek system is a factory-installed option fully integrated with the truck’s electrical and air systems. “Peterbilt continues to expand the safety features

on its vehicles through initial design – such as panoramic visibility – and through complementary systems, such as our new RollTek offering,” said Newhouse. He noted that Peterbilt is the only truck manufacturer to offer both front air-disc brakes and electronic stability control as standard equipment on its Class 8 conventional trucks. Other standard, safetyoriented features on the Model 579 and 567 include LED lamps for all marker lights; staircase-step design for cab entry and egress; an impact-resistant stainless steel grille reinforced by a hood protection bar; a hood blowdown prevention lock; and industryleading forward lighting. Several optional safety features include rear air-disc brakes, collision mitigation systems and high intensity discharge headlamps. b Source: Peterbilt

Momentum Rental and Sales, an Atlas Copco dealer in Port Lavaca, Texas, opened two new facilities — one in Corpus Christi and another in Richwood, Texas. With the new locations, Momentum extends Atlas Copco’s equipment and support offering to the growing petrochemical and refinery customers in those areas. “Our mission is to be there for our customers through every phase of their projects with high-quality equipment backed by exceptional customer service,” said Joey Barrett, Momentum Rental and Sales chief executive officer. “Our two new facilities help us accomplish this mission by making us accessible to more customers, particularly in the growing petrochemical and refinery markets.” The new facilities bring Momentum’s number of stores to three. The company rents, sells and services

and retains a higher resale value since it will not corrode and resists dents and fading. “Contractors depend on their equipment day in and day out, which is why reliability and durability are a key priority for all of our products, whether they are rented or purchased,” said Clint Blair, Atlas Copco business development manager, oil and gas. “And offering contractors a complete breadth of equipment that requires minimal servicing gives them peace of mind when it comes to their bottom line and meeting tight deadlines.” Barrett added that Atlas Copco’s rental-focused equipment and full breadth of products allows the company to serve nearly any customer for any application. “Having a large variety of reliable equipment is what helps us serve growing markets and enhances our productivity, trust with customers, and ultimately our success,” Barrett said. “We look forward to growing relationships with new customers and our markets.” b

John Deere Unveils New High-Hp 4-Track 9RX Series Tractors The 9RX tractors are designed with a mechanical Parallel Plane Four-Bar Linkage system with 4 inches of vertical travel. This helps to control movement and isolates the cab and operator from sudden impacts and vibration.

After years of design, field trials and customer feedback, John Deere introduces its first-ever 4-track tractor, adding to its extensive line of high horsepower 9R Series wheeled and 9RT Series 2-track tractors. The four new 9RX Tractor models – which range from 470 to 620 engine horsepower – feature a large, robust undercarriage and

track system engineered to provide superior power, durability, and improved ride quality, especially when handling large implements in the field. Jerry Griffith, John Deere product marketing manager, 6-9 Family Tractors, says the new 9RX Series Tractors offer customers three distinct advantages compared to

similar 4-track models. “The 9RX has a superior undercarriage with a positive-drive track system that effectively delivers power to the ground; it features the outstanding comfort of our CommandView III cab with a new cab suspension system for improved ride quality; and it is designed with integrated performance features already

available on our 9 Family of tractors.” These other features include built-in, fully integrated AutoTrac guidance and JDLink Connect information management, the e18 Transmission with Efficiency Manager, and increased hydraulic flow for optimal field performance. “The 9RX has been designed with our customers in mind to provide the performance, manoeuvrability, comfort and reliability to operate large, heavy equipment under a wide variety of soil conditions and terrain,” Griffith adds. The 9RX Tractors feature either a John Deere PowerTech PSS 13.5L engine (9470RX and 9520RX models) or Cummins QSX15 engine (9570RX and 9620RX models) to provide the torque and power needed to handle the toughest field conditions. The engine powers a large diameter drive sprocket and drive lugs that, along with optimally placed idlers and mid-rollers work to deliver exceptional horsepower to the ground with less track slippage. The tractors are equipped with rugged, puncture-resistant Camso

Page 11

Duradrive 3500 and Camso Duradrive 6500 (with Durabuilt technology) rubber tracks for optimal loadbearing performance in the field. The track belts are designed for increased life and durability, and are

available in 30-inch and 36inch widths. Like its 9R/9RT siblings, the new 4-track tractors are available with the responsive, smooth-shifting e18 Transmission with EfContinued on page 12

January 2016 Product Manager, Terex AWP. “This allows the Terex RL-4 light tower to be loaded on a truck sideways, across the truck, instead of down the truck’s length.” Previously, the Terex RL-4 light tower had a 30-gallon tank and provided approximately 60-hours of run time. The new RL-4 light tower has a 45-gallon tank and an efficient engine which extends the run time to as long as 90 hours. The RL-4 light tower also has an optional autostart feature which uses a photocell or timer to turn on the unit automatically and run when you need it without having to manually start it. “By increasing the run time by up to 50 percent, the unit can provide light up to seven nights on one tank of fuel. That’s a tremendous efficiency,” said Engstrom. The new Terex RL-4 has a Kohler KDW1003 3-cylinder diesel, liquid-cooled engine with a 6.0kW power configuration. “This engine is considered to be one of the most popular workhorses in the industry and now it’s part of the Terex solution,” said Engstrom. Kohler has worked to make this engine quieter with less vibration. Terex and Kohler worked together to provide the RL-4 with a larger oil pan so it can go about 500 hours between oil changes. Combine the Terex service team with over 2,000 Kohler parts and service locations worldwide and service to reduce downtime is never far away. The Terex RL-4 light tower is now in production and available worldwide. b

Terex is pleased to introduce its newly-redesigned RL-4 light tower. Already known for its reliable and cost-effective performance across jobsites varying from building and highway construction to oil field applications and sporting events, the newlyredesigned Terex RL-4 light tower has significant improvements that make it an even stronger performer. “Our RL-4 redesign focused on providing greater efficiency and improved performance for our light tower customers,” said Karen Stash, Senior Director, Global Marketing and Product Management, Terex Aerial Work Platforms (AWP). “By pairing the vertical mast and larger 45 gallon fuel tank with the ability to get 17 units on a trailer, customers will see the benefits from day one.” The Terex RL-4 light tower is 23.4 ft (7.13 m) in height with a width of 59 in (150 cm), and a stowed length of 85 in (215 cm). It

has a dry weight of 1,461 lbs. (663 kg) and has four metal halide 1,000 W lamps. High density polyethylene covers eliminate corrosion and dents, and vertical mast with an internal mast brake offers 359 degree non-continuous tower rotation and a retractable mast cable. The light tower’s new vertical mast dramatically cuts set up time by using only one winch for quick operation. Being able to stow the mast on top of the unit instead of hanging over the end reduces the potential that the unit will be damaged in transit. The light tower also offers a smaller footprint which lets you haul up to 17 units on a 48 ft trailer instead of the 10 units you were limited to with the previous model, resulting in significant cost savings. “We’re able to reduce the footprint thanks to the vertical mast and the added benefit of the foldable tongue,” said Marie Engstrom, Associate Source: Terex

4 inches of vertical travel. This helps to control movement and isolates the cab and operator from sudden impacts and vibration. The intuitive, easyto-use Generation 4 CommandCenter with custom-built pages and green-on-green integrated technologies provides fingertip control of tractor and implement functions. “We’ve also redesigned the hydraulic system in the new 9RX, which includes up to eight SCVs and delivers a standard 58 gallons per minute of flow, or an optional 115 gallons per minute of flow. It easily meets the speed and high

ficiency Manager for automated control of the engine and transmission. This industry-leading transmission responds quickly and automatically in the field for improved performance and increased fuel savings. The tractors also feature an articulated steering system and the optional Active Command Steering™ (ACS), which improves manoeuvrability in the field and line-holding ability at transport speeds. For improved ride quality, the 9RX tractors are designed with a mechanical Parallel Plane FourBar Linkage system with

hydraulic power demands of the large implements our customers often use in the field,” Griffith says. “The 9RX brings to the market John Deere’s 20 years of track-tractor expertise and field knowledge gained from our popular 8RT and 9RT tractors,” he adds. “Customers tell us the 9RX has the most comfortable ride, is easier to manoeuvre in the field, is easier to maintain and service, and more importantly, provides the power they need to get field work done faster and more effectively.” b Source: John Deere

OHMPA Awards The Best Of The Best At 2015 Fall Asphalt Seminar The Ontario Hot Mix Producers Association (OHMPA) recognized the best and brightest at its annual Fall Asphalt Seminar held on December 2nd at the brand new Universal Eventspace Conference and Event Centre in Vaughan. Four asphalt plants received the 2015 Trillium Awards and eight plants were recertified. Introduced in 2002, the Trillium Award recognizes the best of the best in the production of asphalt. Recipients must meet exceptionally high standards in seven categories which are appearance, operations, environmental, safety, permitting and compliance, community relations and industry participation. The four newly awarded plants are Miller Northern Limited – Boeing 300 Portable Drum Plant, Miller Northwest Limited – Cedar Rapid 8-28 Portable Drum Plant, C. Villeneuve Construction

by industry regulations. To date, 68 plants have earned the Trillium Award and 47 have been recertified. That speaks highly of our members and Ontario’s asphalt industry.” Also presented was the Dr Norman McLeod Award for Innovation in Road Building. The award, named in honour of Dr McLeod, Canada’s most accomplished asphalt innovator, celebrates the pursuit of innovation in the hot mix asphalt industry. This year it was awarded to the late Keith Davidson, who was the Director of Technology and Product Development for McAsphalt Industries Limited. The award was accepted by John Carrick Jr., president of McAsphalt. Mr Davidson was heralded for his dedication to the science of asphalt research and engineering support which has led to the introduction of several asphalt emulsion technologies in Canada. OHMPA congratulates this year’s award winners and heartily thanks them for their passion and commitment to quality asphalt pavements. b

Co. Ltd. – Astec Plant (in Hearst, ON), Dufferin Construction – London Asphalt Plant. Trillium Award status is granted for a three-year period at which time the plant may reapply for recertification. Asphalt plants named for recertification were Miller Northeast Limited – Terex Drum, Miller Paving Limited – Markham, Richmond Hill and Brechin Asphalt Plants, Miller Group Norway Astec Double Drum Plant, Smith Construction CMI 300, Huron (Chatham) Asphalt Plant and Miller Northwest Limited – Sandy Beach Drum Plant. “OHMPA producer members work hard to ensure that they are good neighbours and stewards of the environment,” said OHMPA executive director Vince Aurilio. “The Trillium award was created to recognize those plants that go beyond the ‘gold’ standard already required Source: OHMP

This year’s fourth quarter included $69 million in restructuring-related and impairment charges; $40 million in pre-existing warranty adjustments; and $14 million in debt refinancing fees and costs. As a result, adjusted fourth quarter 2015 EBITDA was $209 million, equating to a fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA margin of 8.4 percent. Revenues in the quarter declined 17 percent compared to fourth quarter 2014. Higher Class 6/7 medium and bus char-

geouts in the company’s Core (U.S. and Canada) market were more than offset by reduced volumes in the company’s export and global operations, lower Class 8 truck chargeouts in its Core market, and Navistar’s exit earlier this year from the Blue Diamond Truck joint venture. “We delivered on our adjusted EBITDA end-of year run rate target of 8 percent or better, thanks to a favourable mix of truck sales and record parts profitability in our core North America market in the fourth quarter,” said Troy A. Clarke, Navistar president and chief executive officer. “We also benefited

from our continued focus on cost management across our operations, marked by a $74 million improvement in structural costs in the quarter.” Navistar finished the fourth quarter 2015 with $1.01 billion in manufacturing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. During the quarter, the company announced a long-term agreement with General Motors Co. (GM) to develop and assemble medium-duty, conventional cab Class 4/5 commercial vehicles, allowing Navistar to strengthen its product line-up. The trucks, which are scheduled to go into production in 2018 and will be built at Navistar’s Springfield, Ohio plant, will be jointly developed using Navistar’s expertise in commercial vehicles and manufacturing capabilities, and GM’s commercial components and engines. As for full-year 2015 results, Navistar reported a net loss of $184 million, or $2.25 per diluted share, versus a net loss of $619 million, or $7.60 per diluted share, for fiscal year 2014. Fiscal year 2015 adjusted EBITDA was $494 million versus $306 million adjusted EBITDA for 2014. Revenue for fiscal year 2015 was $10.1 billion, compared to $10.8 billion in fiscal year 2014. Chargeouts in the company’s Core North America market increased by 3,500 units, or 6 percent, in 2015, reflecting an 18-percent increase in Class 6/7 medium trucks, a 10-percent increase in school buses, and a 7-percent increase in Class 8 severe service, partially offset by a 4-percent decline in Class 8 heavy truck. Total market share for Class 6-8 and bus for the year was 16 percent. Operationally, the company reduced its total costs by more than $300 million in 2015, including $114 million in structural cost reductions, with the remainder coming from reduced material and logistics spending and lower manufacturing costs. “For the third consecu-

tive year, we generated around $200 million in adjusted EBITDA improvement, and we expect this improvement trend to continue in 2016,” Clarke said. “We are building the best products we’ve ever built, and we are winning back customers. We have identified and begun implementing actions to further lower our material spend and structural costs, while driving greater efficiencies in our manufacturing operations. As a result, we expect to build on our 2015 progress, and our goal is to achieve profitability and be free cash flow positive in 2016.” The company provided the following guidance: • Forecasts retail deliveries of Class 6-8 trucks and buses in the United States and Canada will be in the range of 350,000 units to 380,000 units for fiscal year 2016. • Full-year 2016 revenues to be between $9.5 $10.0 billion. • Full-year 2016 adjusted EBITDA of $600 - $700 million. Summary of Financial Results: (Unaudited) • Quarters Ended October 31, Years Ended October 31, • (in millions, except per share data) 2015 2014 2015 2014 • Sales and revenues, net $ 2,488 $ 3,008 $ 10,140 $ 10,806 • Segment Results:

Truck Segment – For the fourth quarter 2015, the Truck segment recorded a loss of $36 million, compared with a year-ago fourth quarter loss of $40 million. This year’s fourth quarter results also reflect $26 million in restructuring charges, primarily related to reduction-in-force initiatives initiated at the end of the quarter, as well as $40 million in pre-existing warranty charges, while last year’s results included $27 million in restructuring related charges and $11 million in pre-existing warranty benefits. The year-over-year improvement was driven by cost management activities, favourable mix in its Core market, and improved margins, which

more than offset the lower chargeouts in its Core market. For the fiscal year 2015, the Truck segment recorded a loss of $141 million, compared with a fiscal year 2014 loss of $380 million. The yearover-year improvement was primarily driven by a favourable shift in product mix in Core market, improved margins and lower structural costs, partially offset by an increase in used truck reserves and higher accelerated depreciation charges related to the company’s exit of the foundry business. Parts Segment — For the fourth quarter 2015, the Parts segment recorded record profits of $163 million, compared to a yearago fourth quarter profit of $150 million. The increase was primarily due to stronger margins in its Core commercial markets. For the fiscal year 2015, the Parts segment recorded record profits of $592 million, compared to a fiscal year 2014 profit of $528 million. The 12-percent increase was primarily driven by higher revenues, margin improvements in its commercial markets and cost-reduction initiatives, partially offset by the performance decline in its Blue Diamond Parts business due to the decrease of serviceable units in operation.

Wisconsin Concrete Innovation Makes Seattle Skyscraper Stable A University of Wisconsin–Madison engineer’s solution for streamlining the construction of skyscrapers is having a skyscraper moment in one of the most seismically active regions of the country. All coupling beams in the 1.5 million-square-foot Lincoln Square Expansion —which includes luxury condos, a hotel, dining, retail and office space in two 450-foot towers in the heart of Seattle suburb Bellevue, Washington — are made of fibre-reinforced concrete using a unique design co-developed by Gustavo Parra-Montesinos, professor of civil and environmental engineering at UW-Madison. These concrete coupling beams span doorways and windows, helping walls with such openings in them to function as a single structural unit, while bolstering the building as a whole against earthquakes. Traditionally, coupling beams are reinforced with a labyrinth of rebar, adding a great deal of time, cost and complexity to the construction process. “Placement of the rebar in these link beams can sometimes control the construction schedule,” says Cary Kopczynski, whose Seattle-based firm is the structural engineering company for the project. “Most of the west coast of the U.S., of course, is a highly seismic area, so when you’re building concrete structures, they require a lot of intricate rebar to carry the seismic loads.” As an alternative to excessive amounts of rebar,

Parra-Montesinos’ solution incorporates steel fibres into the concrete mix, and he and University of Michigan collaborator James K. Wight engineered that approach to create beams that equal or exceed the performance of cumbersome rebar designs, yet simplify and speed up the construction process. The first real-world implementation of the coupling beam solution occurred a few years back. Kopczynski incorporated the fibre-reinforced coupling beams into a portion of The Martin, a 255-foot, 23-story apartment building completed in Seattle in 2013. Kopczynski credits The Martin’s owner and developer for taking a chance on a technology grounded in research, simulation and laboratory-scale testing, but not yet implemented in the field. “They were very interested in being innovative and embracing new technologies,” he says. “That project was viewed as being a huge success because it reduced the level of uncertainty that existed prior to actually using it.” This time around, the teams behind the Lincoln Square Expansion embraced the coupling beam technology because of the overwhelmingly positive feedback they received from crews who worked with it on The Martin project, says Kopczynski. “The reason we’re using the new coupling beams is that they’re faster, less expensive, and reduce the potential for field mistakes,” he says. “With traditional

coupling beams, it’s very common to have placing mistakes in the field because of all of the intricacy. Now, not only can we build the building faster and more simply, but we can reduce the potential for field errors.” Because the new technology is not yet included in the American Concrete Institute’s building code — which sets the agenda for the concrete construction industry and its regulators — both buildings have had to pass muster with outside peer reviewers engaged by local officials. Parra-Montesinos hopes it will be included in the next edition of the code, which is due out in 2019. “I think we’ve come up with a very robust design,” he says. “We just need to be able to specify the minimum performance requirement for the fibrereinforced concrete based on standard material tests.” Currently, with funding from the Charles Pankow Foundation and other industry partners, ParraMontesinos and his students are studying other types of steel fibres incorporated into the concrete in various quantities. “Ultimately, we expect to establish a link between material behaviour and seismic performance of the coupling beam so that users are not required to use the same fibre and in the same amounts as we used in our past research,” Parra-Montesinos says. “This is a required step to develop design provisions for the building code.” His research emphasizes large-scale physical testing, an approach that is helping the construction world catch up to the promise of fibre-reinforced concrete. Kopczynski recognizes that potential, and he looks

Page 15

forward to seeing the new coupling beams become more widely adopted in skyscraper construction. However, he says, a greater payoff will occur when innovative structural engineers like ParraMontesinos develop ways to incorporate fibre-reinforced concrete into other key building components.

“Then, we could potentially start reducing the reinforcement-bar requirements throughout the entire core of the building, and that would have an impact in a very positive way on the way we build concrete buildings,” Kopczynski says. b

crease of $16 million, the Global Operations segment improved year-over-year performance by $74 million, primarily due to lower year-over-year manufacturing and structural costs. Financial Services Segment— For the fourth quarter 2015, the Financial Services segment recorded a profit of $26 million, equal to fourth quarter 2014 profit of $26 million. For the fiscal year 2015, the Financial Services segment recorded a profit of $98 million, comparable to a fiscal year 2014 profit of $97 million, as an increase in revenue and a decrease in the provision for loan losses were offset by lower interest income from intercompany loans. b

Global Operations Segment — For the fourth quarter 2015, the Global Operations segment recorded a loss of $27 million, compared to a yearago fourth quarter loss of $56 million. The year-overyear improvement was primarily driven by on-going actions to lower the company’s cost structure in its South American engine business, to offset the impact of the on-going downturn in Brazil’s economy. For the 2015 fiscal year, the Global Operations segment recorded a loss of $67 million compared to a year-ago fiscal year loss of $274 million.

Return Home To Atlantic Region A Struggle For Oilpatch Workers As the days go by with no phone calls offering work in the Alberta oilpatch, Jared Park worries about how he’ll pay for his son’s leukemia medicine. “It’s a struggle. You don’t know when or if you’re going to make it back to work. You just hope you get that call,” said Park as five-yearold Mason wriggled and bounced on the sofa in his tidy Truro, N.S., bungalow. “For Mason, it’s important because part of our drug plan covers the medicine for his chemotherapy.” The 30-year-old father of three is among a wave of East Coast workers who have returned home from the Western oilfields after a downturn in the economy. Many are hoping for higher hydrocarbon prices and a return to the West in 2016, but others have begun trying to seek a living closer to home. Kerry Morash, a former provincial cabinet minister, said rural parts of the Maritimes have been hard hit by the fall in the oil prices from about $95US to current levels of less than $40US.

Morash joined the migration west after the paper mill near Liverpool, N.S., where he worked as a health-and-safety consultant closed several years ago. He was hired on contract at the Kearl oilsands project north of Fort McMurray, Alta. “There wasn’t a lot of work back home, and there certainly wasn’t a lot around Liverpool ... I was very fortunate to be able to go out there,” he said, recalling his two-week shifts of 12 hours per day. He said some maintenance jobs continue to draw East Coast tradespeople, but since the completion of Kearl, the former Progressive Conservative politician said he couldn’t find another oilpatch job despite a resume that included a stint as Nova Scotia’s minister of labour and environment. Gradually, he’s starting to hear about opportunities in the rural area of Nova Scotia where he lives. And he said he may be staying on the East Coast. Some industries in the Maritimes, meanwhile, are using the opportunity to recruit skilled tradespeople to

work in their hometowns. The Halifax shipyard has been recruiting workers from the West as it builds Arctic patrol ships for the federal government. Spokeswoman Mary Keith said by early December the Halifax site had 33 employees who had been working in Alberta, British Columbia or Saskatchewan. Some workers are retraining to begin fresh careers that will keep them on the coast. Twenty-three-year-old Jacob Stepaniak, who grew up in Margaree Valley, N.S., came home from Alberta last year after working intermittently in the West since 2011. He returned to care for his 85-year-old grandfather, who was ill with cancer, and decided to stay home despite the attraction of salaries of over $90,000 a year in the oilpatch. “You miss all those little things, the small-town way of life ... You run into someone here, you’re guaranteed to strike up a conversation,” he said. “You really miss that.” Stepaniak is retraining in marine engineering tech-

nology at the Nova Scotia Community College and expecting to begin a life at sea, possibly in the offshore oil sector. He and his girlfriend have been hunting for a home in the Margaree Valley, where they plan to settle. But for Park and his partner Jenny Mosley, 30, the West remains the family’s best hope for a secure future. Each time Park departs, Mosley joins the boys every day in writing down on a blackboard how many “sleeps” until Dad returns,

knowing his absence means the bank account will fill up. Park recalls sitting in an airport two years ago feeling helpless as a distraught Mosley called him to say that Mason had been diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. He said he longed to be home to hold his boy, but also realized work in the oilfield derricks would bring in $80,000 a year, along with a benefits plan for medicine and treatments. Park’s company plan provides full coverage for

Terex CTT 91-5 And CTT 161A-8 Tower Cranes At Hamburg Piers On behalf of Köster AG, Trittau-based Proschwitz GmbH used its Terex CTT 91-5 and CTT 161A-8 flat top tower cranes while helping build the new seven-story BOA VISTA office building in Hamburg. The two Terex tower cranes spent about twelve months in view of the world-famous St. Pauli Landungsbrücken Piers in Hamburg while working under unique conditions. “Projects in urban downtown settings are always associated with special challenges, and that’s especially the case when it comes to a big, lively city

like Hamburg,” explains Proschwitz GmbH General Manager Detlev Proschwitz. Pressed for space, pressed for time The first challenge was the lack of space around the areas where the two Terex tower cranes would be erected. In fact, just getting the cranes from Proschwitz’s headquarters in Trittau to the work site with 13 trucks was already a small logistical challenge despite the short distance of 35 kilometers – after all, cramped downtown areas are hardly the natural habitat of heavy goods vehicles.

between $600 and $1,000 in monthly drug costs, while the province’s pharmacare program requires that families contribute a portion of costs depending on their income level. Meanwhile, there are two other boys, Mason’s twin brother Maddox and nine-year-old Grady, to provide for. “When there’s no work, there’s no planning on getting ahead. It’s just planning on getting by,” said Mosley, as Mason wriggled into her lap. b Source: Energy Now Despite this and the limited space conditions at the actual work sites, however, the Proschwitz team was able to erect the two cranes on time, with each one taking only one day and three assembly technicians. “We didn’t have any more time available anyway, as we had to keep the necessary road closures to a minimum. That’s where the CTT cranes’ ease of erecting really came through for us,” Proschwitz emphasizes. And it is one of the key reasons why his company consistently relies on Terex products when it comes to tower cranes: The Proschwitz Group’s rental fleet features a total of over 100 flat top and hammerhead tower cranes – all Terex models. “The feature with the transfer masts that Continued on page 22

Front Page Story

New Brunswick’s Key Transport Corridor Gets Upgrade After years of discussion, work finally began this past summer on the first phase of twinning a section of New Brunswick’s Route 11 highway that connects Shediac to Miramichi. By Jennifer Gouchie-Terris

nfrastructure upgrades to this section of Route 11 will focus on promoting economic growth, improving mobility in the Shediac region of New Brunswick and increasing safety for all those who use the highway system. The $60-million, threeyear project will see an overhaul of on-and offramps and the twinning of 6.8 kilometres of highway from Route 15 to the south side of the Shediac River. The federal government’s share of $27 million is coming from the New Building Canada Fund while the province is kicking in the remaining $33 million. The total cost of twinning Route 11 between Route 15 and Miramichi has been estimated at about $1 billion. Improve-

ments to Route 11 will be completed in phases over the next 10 years, with the most heavily traveled sections to be twinned and the rest of the route upgraded as funding becomes available. The first step in the Shediac area included one new highway interchange and modifications to three others as well as a new grade separation, along with the twinning. The 6.8-kilometre stretch and the highway bypass upgrades will be done over three construction seasons and is expected to be completed in fall of 2017. New Brunswick’s Transportation and Infrastructure Minister Roger Melanson tells Supply Post strategic infrastructure investment is a cornerstone

of the government’s plan to create jobs and stimulate New Brunswick’s economy. “As part of the National Highway System, Route 11 is a key transportation corridor for many businesses from all regions of our province,’’ he says. “The section of highway being twinned in the Shediac area has a traffic count of about 19,000 vehicles per day with seasonal peaks exceeding this volume. These upgrades to Route 11 will facilitate the movement of people and goods making our businesses more productive and competitive and improving highway safety.’’ In addition to the sustained economic benefits, Melanson says New Brunswick companies will see

from reduced shipping times and vehicle operation costs, the direct and indirect impacts from construction work are expected to generate $37.2 million in GDP and approximately 590 jobs. According to information provided by DTI, Phase 1 included twinning 6.8 kilometres of highway from Route 15 to the south side of the Shediac River, construction of one new interchange, as well as a new grade separation and modifications to three other existing interchanges. The 2015-16 provincial capital budget allocated $19.2 million to begin this work through the provincial government’s Strategic Infrastructure Initiative. The Route 11 twinning project was selected to re-

ceive funding for up to half of the eligible costs, to a maximum of $27 million under the federal government’s New Building Canada Plan. There were a few weather days that affected operations but compared to previous construction seasons, the project is said to have gone went exceedingly well and on time. As of December 4, all three of the grading contracts were substantially completed and girders were installed to the structure during the week of December 7-11. There will be no work over the winter months. A total of four tenders were awarded in 2015 including three grading projects and a structure for the new Route 11/Route 133 interchange. The contract to grade 2.1km from Bateman Mill Road to Shediac River and to build 2.1 km of subgrade and subbase for new Route 11 southbound lanes was awarded to Restigouche Construction Co. Ltd. out of Saint-Andre, New Brunswick. The approximately $2 million contract was for the most part a fill project which included over 200,000 m3 of local “borrow” material and approximately 35,000 tons of subbase crushed rock.

Page 17 Restigouche began working on the project on August 1 and completed their work in mid-October. The company had 10-15 employees working on the project at any given time using an array of equipment including more than half a dozen company and 20-25 private truckers from the Shediac area. Other equipment included excavators, bulldozers and compactors. Meanwhile, Dexter Construction Co. Ltd. was the successful bidder for the approximately $4.4 million contract for the grading 1.2 km to realign Route 15 westbound lanes. This project was located just west of the existing Route 15/Route 11 interchange. The work was mostly a cut project with about 85,000 m3 of excavation but also included approximately 30,000 tons of subbase/base crushed rock. The new realigned westbound lane is now about 4.5m lower than the old westbound lane it replaces which will in part accommodate a future structure that will pass overtop of Route 15 eastbound traffic to access the new northbound Route 11 alignment. This grading project also included installation of new 3,000 mm x 3,000 mm box culverts for the existing Route 15 eastbound lane and the new Route 15 realigned westbound lanes. These two 75 m long box culverts complete with fish weirs were produced by Shaw Precast Solutions. A new open channel was also built in the median area. Due to installation of these new box culverts, logistics was required for traffic control in the form of building temporary median crossovers. The contractor began work on this project September 1 and worked seven days per week. Dexter completed the paving, shouldering and new guiderail installation of the new westbound lanes by mid-November and opened brook flow to the new box culverts in late November. The third tender was for grading for new Route 11/Route 133 interchange ramps, access road and service road. This also included 1km of new Route 11 northbound and southbound lanes subgrade and subbase. Awarded to Dexter Construction Ltd., the approximately $2.2 milContinued on page 18

lion contract was mostly a cut project with about 200,000m3 of excavation. Work also included approximately 60,000 tons of subbase/base crushed rock. Some rock excavation was done in the new ramp from southbound Route 11 to new Route 133. This was a cut of approximately 6 m depth with blasting operations undertaken by the contractor to aid with the excavation. More than 30 company and private local truckers worked on the project using a long list of machinery including CAT 490 excavators, D8, D6 and D4 CAT dozers, 349, 320 and 321

CAT excavators and a 90 ton excavator as well as half a dozen 40-ton rock trucks, compaction equipment and CAT 14 and 16 graders. New Route 133/ Route 11 underpass structure is a two-year project. The first phase in 2015 was construction of abutments and pier column and installation of girders and is expected to be completed by March 2016. The second phase of deck construction is to be completed by August 2016. The approximately $2.7 million contract was awarded to Dunbar Construction Ltd. of Fredericton, New Brunswick. The 14 precast pre-stressed

concrete beams for this structure were produced by Strescon Limited of Saint John, NB. The project involved a dozen or so company employees along with two large 125 and 200 ton cranes, diesel pile hammer, 624 loader, 330 excavator and rock trucks. The New Building Canada Fund will provide $53 billion over the next decade in infrastructure money to provincial, territorial and municipal infrastructure. Over the next 10 years, New Brunswick will see approximately $866 million in federal funding, including almost $394 million under the New Building Canada Fund. b

This latest product development demonstrates our ongoing commitment to continually serve our customers’ needs and responding to market demands. The machines are manufactured at the company’s sate of the art Terex facility in Banglaore, India and the project is the first step in a much bigger conveyor project aimed to serve the bulk material handling industry.” One of TWS distributors, Allan Kane, General Manager, Blue Machinery Scotland Ltd added “As a distributor for TWS the introduction of the new line of conveyors helps position us to better serve our customer needs in terms of providing them with a complete TWS solution. The new conveyor range adorns many features such as containerization for shipping, track in/ track out and hydraulic controlled functions which will undoubtedly be attractive to our customers.” To find out more on the New Terex AggreStac Conveyor Range or to discuss your specific washing requirements, contact us at TWS.Sales@terex. com or visit our dedicated website which provides an overview of the full product offering at www. terex.com/washing. b

ing, radio control movement and setup where required. In addition the Terex AggreStac Conveyors are designed so they easily integrate with existing electrical and hydraulic control systems on TWS equipment. In addition it removes the need for TWS customers to use third party suppliers of auxiliary equipment and instead provides high quality, cost effective stockpiling equipment to complement TWS full range of washing and screening equipment. This makes for more manageable and effective project management, installation and commissioning of one complete washing solution for the customer. The Terex AggreStac Conveyors have been developed in response to market research, whereby both global distributors and existing TWS global customer base were consulted as part of an insightful research program. Part of the research identified the need for enhanced stock pile solutions, which is now available through the new range as we continually aim to better serve customer’s specific requirements. Sean Loughran, Director TWS commented “This is yet another exciting venture for TWS and Source: Terex

ing the city grid from unmanageable voltage fluctuations. “If there was one thing we really didn’t want to do, it was to leave the Landungsbrücken Piers without electricity,” as Detlev Proschwitz succinctly puts it. Excellent teamwork For the project at the St. Pauli Landungsbrücken Piers, the Proschwitz team erected the CTT 91-5 flat top tower crane freestanding on a C38 cruciform base, and the CTT 161A-8 flat top tower crane on cast-in-place anchors. With a jib length of 40 meters and a hook height of 49.5 meters, the CTT 161A-8 was perfectly set up to lift construction materials weighing up to 4.15 tonnes from the jib tip. Its maximum lifting capacity was eight tonnes. The CTT 91-5 was set up with a jib length of 30 meters and a hook height of 40.8 meters. With this setup, it was able to pick up loads of up to 3.3 tonnes. With these configurations, the two Terex tower cranes performed their work smoothly and reliably for a total of twelve months, even when exposed to wind and inclement weather. As a result, Construction Manager Robert Friske from Köster AG, the primary contractor on the project, was also completely satisfied with the Terex machines: “The high-pressure deadlines normally involved in this type of construction proj-

ects mean that we can’t afford any equipment downtimes. This means that dependable machinery, such as these two tower cranes, is crucial to a successful project completed on time,” Robert Friske pointed out. Disassembly in record time After the work was completed, the cranes needed to be disassembled quickly, as both the port’s anniversary celebration and the Hamburg Marathon were just around the corner. Due to the extremely constrained space conditions, it was not possible to tear down the CTT 91 crane using a mobile crane. However, the fact that the tower crane can be easily dismantled into smaller components meant that the CTT 161crane was able to take care of the task and safely disassemble its “smaller sibling.” “The option of being able to disas-

Komatsu Introduces The New PC45MR-5 And PC55MR-5 Power, great in tight spaces, easy to maintain and no DEF needs Komatsu America Corp., a leading global heavy equipment manufacturer introduced the new PC45MR-5 and PC55MR-5 hydraulic excavators, two machines with tight tail swing radii, swing booms and convex sliding doors that hug the machine to help with work in tight spaces. Featuring 2.19 litre, 38 horsepower, EPA Tier 4 final, 4D88E-7 engines, the new PC45MR-5 and PC55MR-5 use up to five percent less fuel than their predecessors with no loss to performance or productivity. “The PC45MR-5 and PC55MR-5 are designed for versatility, manoeuvrability, comfort and low operating costs,” said Kurt Moncini, Komatsu America product manager. “For most confined-area jobsites with construction, utility, landscaping or similar applications, this is the right tool for the job,” Moncini said. The new Tier 4 Final engine is not only more fuel efficient, it has an after-treatment system that requires no diesel exhaust fluid (DEF). The

Komatsu diesel particulate filter (KDPF) and other after-treatment components are also specifically designed to work in harmony with the engine for added efficiency and long life. Additionally, the following features and improvements come standard on the PC45MR-5 and PC55MR-5 excavators: working • Enhanced modes that allow operators to match engine speed and pump delivery to the application. • Wide service doors that provide easy access for ground-level maintenance. • A high-strength, X-track frame that deters dirt and debris build-up, saving operators valuable machine clean-up time. • A tilt-up cab for easy access to hydraulic components and the back of the engine. • New auto-idle shutdown and economy modes help save fuel and reduce machine wear. • ROPS and OPG Level 1 certified cab and canopy options provide a durable, secure operator work environment. b Source: Komatsu
