Remember Team or School Pride?

Are Companies Missing the Boat?

If you played team sports in High School or College, you know that pride was a tool the coach used to build team cohesion and school spirit. Pride in what you do, who you do it for, and for people in the same organization builds respect, strengthens teamwork, and creates loyalty.

Pride gives us a tangible benefit that is hard to give up.

Having said that, I see more and more candidates who are not disgruntled by low pay, lack of benefits, or limited advancement opportunities, but that they feel unimportant to their company as an individual. They do not see management or fellow employees as part of their success. That there is no recognition or pride when it comes to their job is pushing them to leave and makes their departure easier.

Sure, times are tight and money is limited, but that is my point. Instilling pride starts with management setting goals, values, and expectations. Igniting pride takes recognition from management when goals are met. Keeping pride in your organization has to be a part of daily culture, but does not require money.

I would argue the opposite. When employees have pride, they work harder, stay longer, and produce more. They are less likely to leave for a small increase in pay or watch the clock and beat the buzzer out the door.

Does your organization instill pride or use money as the primary tool to motivate? Did pride You have two options with our new eMagazine, 1 or 2 page display.

Lamco Forest ProductsEWP // Produits Forestiers Lamco-Bois d'ingénierie Picture & Testimonial provided by Sam Yoder & Son of Delaware.

"RELAM SOLD THE JOB !"

"A contractor came to us with plans. Originally, due to the long spans, he had planned to use relam for rafters. The more we looked at the plan, the more we realized that we could truss this project using relam in the bottom cord of the truss and accomplish what the customer wanted. The plan called for a 32 ft room, which cannot be designed using dimensional lumber. It was also cost prohibitive to use L.V.L material. Relam sold the job, and the contractor is very pleased. He also ended up using RELAM for the headers on all the porches, which again, was more cost effective than using L.V.L. for the beams. The contractor is sold on the product, and has already ordered it for headers on another job that is starting next week!"

Weekly updates on the solid wood market in Canada and the US provided by Keta Kosman, publisher and editor of Madison’s Lumber Reporter. Madison’s is a North American lumber and panel commodity price guide and market analysis newsletter, which has been published every Friday out of Vancouver, BC since 1952. For more information please visit http://www.madisonsreport.com

Massive storms in large parts of the US last week did nothing to slow the recent increase in lumber trading activity. The worst of the storms occurred late Friday or early Saturday morning, after the week’s business had been transacted.

The mid-week storms, however, provided serious indication of US weather forecasts. This year will go down in history as ‘the winter that never was’.

As Madison’s had suspected the previous week, North American panel prices rebounded strongly in response to recovering market conditions. In fact, OSB and plywood traders were so busy they supplied very little information during the market survey phone calls. Since there is no reason for a drop in demand this week, in fact quite the contrary, Madison’s expects an even sharper climb in panel prices.

This situation is a very clear indicator of better times ahead. Panel producers are more disciplined than are their colleagues in dimension lumber. Speaking simply; anyone can make 2x4’s, that’s easy. But running OSB and plywood is much more involved, so there are fewer players each with greater market share. That prices for this commodity are doing so well so early in the season, and producers can barely keep up with the phone calls placing orders -- not to mention running the boards -- bodes very well for the next two quarters in the lumber business.

Benchmark OSB 7/16” Ontario again rose $11, for the second week in a row, to land at C$215 msf. While an improvement of the flatlined $190 msf that product held for two years, it is important to remember that the recent historical high for 7/16” OSB is $705 msf. That price held for several weeks toward the end of summer 2003.

Cost of production for OSB, as a loose average, is around $180 or $200 msf so there’s a long way to go yet for true profitability. Expect that corner to be turned very soon.

In dimension lumber, benchmark WSPF KD 2x4 #2&Btr continued its steady rise, increasing by $2 to US$273 mmfbm. This momentum was caused mainly by an ongoing resurgence of demand following Chinese New Year for the #3/Utility grades favoured by new customers out of Asia, specifically China.

Low grade 2x4’s were hotly sought-after once again last week, across all species. WSPF KD 2x4 #3/Utility shot up $20, while West Side KD Southern Yellow Pine Utility 2x4’s gained $10, and green Douglas fir 2x4’s jumped $15.

The run on low grades even translated into studs, with benchmark WSPF KD 2x4 PET studs gaining $20 on the week.

Christina Huerta - Friday, March 02, 2012

Look around you – Look up, down and out the window. Do you see a series of triangles? Did you look up at the roof, down at the floor or out the window at a building or bridge? Whether or not you can see the triangles, the structures around you likely contain a truss. In the most basic terms, a truss is a structure that is composed of one or more triangles.

Why a triangle? Well, think about a triangle’s geometric shape – it’s so 1999 Sullair LS-10 Compressor simple, yet its shape and design are structurally stable. with SR Dryer A technical definition of a truss is, “A rigid framework composed 25 hp Sullair rotary screw air compressor, of members connected at joints model LS-10. Rated 111 CFM @ 100 PSI. Also includes Sullair SR-175 dryer. The and arranged into a network of compressor is 230/460V and the dryer is triangles.” Steven Ressler, Ph.D., 230V, 1 phase power. $8,000 FOB AL. Wood Truss Systems U.S. Military Academy at West 765-751-9990 Point Trusses are made from various materials, including the most popular: light and heavy gauge steel and wood. Trusses come in two and three-dimensions and the triangles are connected with various types of materials such as screws for steel trusses or metal plates for wood trusses. One of the most famous structures in the world, the Eiffel Tower, is a truss – a series of inter-connected triangles. Trusses are also used to construct bridges, roofs, floors, and even the Statue of Liberty.

Trivia: He designed both the Eiffel tower and a portion of the Statue of Liberty. (Cue the Jeopardy theme music). Answer: Who is Gustave Eiffel? The Eiffel tower was designed by Gustave Eiffel and the Statue of Liberty was designed by Frédéric Bartholdi, with the help of Gustave Eiffel who designed the interior structure.

Some historians have stated that trusses date back to 18th century Greece, and others argue that there are 13th century structures in Italy that contain trusses. I have not been to Italy or Greece (yet) so I cannot verify these facts for myself. However, I have an amazing resource at Keymark that I can call upon for assistance, Bill Bolduc. Bill is our resident Structural Engineer who has a vast amount of valuable information to share about trusses and their structural stability. Recently, Bill presented Part 5 of his “Introduction to Structural Design” series, which included a review of “What is a Truss?” Bill is an internal resource that I am extremely grateful for as I learn more about trusses and structural engineering. In addition, Bill introduced me to a great external resource for learning more about trusses and structural engineering, Col. Stephen Ressler, Ph.D., P.E., U.S. Military Academy at West Point. You can review Ressler’s video series at: The Great Courses.

What internal and external resources have been most valuable to you in learning about trusses?

Safe Lifting Techniques

The back is a network of fragile ligaments, discs, and muscles which can easily be thrown out of order. The back’s complex design breaks down when it’s forced to perform activities it was not designed to do. Lifting with the back twisted or bent just begs for a pulled muscle or ruptured disc. One sure way to risk injuring the back is to lift heavy or bulky loads improperly or unassisted. Never be afraid to ask for help with loads that you know you cannot lift safely. Lift with good sense and a little extra help from a co-worker or mechanical aid when necessary.

las cuales no ha sido diseñada. Levantar objetos pesados con la espalda doblada es una forma fácil de estirarse un músculo o romperse un disco de la columna vertebral. Una manera sin falla de lastimarse la espalda es levantar un objeto pesado o voluminoso incorrectamente o sin ayuda.

Nunca tenga temor de pedir ayuda para levantar objetos que usted sabe que no es capaz de levantar en forma segura por sí solo. Levante los objetos pesados aplicando el buen juicio y con la ayuda de un compañero de trabajo o ayuda mecánica cuando sea necesario.

Si usted decide que es capaz de levantar una carga ligera, asegúrese de levantarla de la forma correcta.

If you decide you are capable of lifting a light load, make sure you lift correctly.

•

Move in so that your feet are close to the base of the object to be lifted.

•

Face the object squarely.

Bend your knees and squat over the item to be lifted.

In this position, the back gets added lifting strength and power from the legs and arms.

• Colóquese de manera que tenga los pies cercanos a la base del objeto a levantar.

• Sitúese directamente de cara al objeto. Doble las rodillas y haga cuclillas sobre el objeto a levantar. En esta posición, la espalda recibe la potencia de izar adicional que le brindan las piernas y los brazos.

• Colóquese cerca del objeto, porque la columna vertebral debe funcionar como una columna de apoyo, y estando cerca del objeto recibe menos esfuerzo.

•

Move up close to the item, because the backbone must act as a supporting column, and it takes the least strain close in.

•

Tilt the item on edge with its long axis straight up so that the center of the weight is as high as possible above the ground.

•

Still squatting, the feet should be set with legs pointed right at the load, with the back straightened, the worker may then grasp the load with both arms and slowly stand up with it, pushing up with the leg muscles. If you can’t lift slowly, you can’t lift safely.

A good way to learn the right from the wrong way to lift is to practice lifting correctly a few times. You will notice that the correct way to lift is the easiest way to lift the load, with the least strain and awkwardness.

To lift the wrong way will, over time, cause injury and pain. The back can be damaged quickly but can take a long time to heal.

• Gire el objeto hasta tener el eje longitudinal vertical para que el centro de gravedad esté lo más alto posible sobre el suelo.

•

Aún de cuclillas, los pies y las piernas deben estar apuntando a la carga, con la espalda recta, el trabajador debe sujetar la carga con ambos brazos y pararse lentamente, haciendo la fuerza con los músculos de las piernas. Si no se levanta lentamente, no se está levantando de manera segura.

Una buena manera de diferenciar entre el método correcto y los incorrectos de levantar es practicar la forma correcta varias veces.

Observará que con el método correcto es más fácil levantar la carga, con el menor esfuerzo y menos torpeza. Con el tiempo, el levantar objetos pesados incorrectamente puede ocasionar lesiones y dolor. La espalda se puede lastimar en un instante y tomar mucho tiempo para sanar.
