In Marion County, Mississippi, construction crews are replacing two aging bridges over the Pearl River on U.S. 98. Work on the $57.7 million project began in January 2024.

“The U.S. 98 eastbound bridge over the Pearl River was built in the 1930s and is rather narrow,” explained Jordan Whittington, Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) District 7 construction engineer. “Motorists will enjoy wider lanes once the new bridge is finished. The

Tampa Bay’s Howard Frankland Bridge to Open in Early 2025 Drivers could hop on the new $865.3 million Howard Frankland Bridge over Tampa Bay as early as this coming January or February.

That is the word from the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), which confirmed in mid-August that the last of the major construction phases is under way.

Pending no delays from the busiest months of Florida’s hurricane season, construction is expected to wrap up in early 2025.

The new, 5.8-mi.-long bridge, which carries Interstate 275 from Tampa southwest to St. Petersburg, will feature four toll-free lanes headed south, plus two toll-express southbound lanes. Two toll lanes headed northeast toward Tampa will be divided by a barrier wall. In addition, pedestrians and bikers will have a 12-ft.-wide walkway spanning the structure.

The Tampa Bay Times reported that the current southbound bridge, built in the 1990s, will switch directions, offering four toll-free lanes from St. Petersburg to Tampa. The current northbound bridge, which opened in January 1960, will be closed and demolished in 2026.

Right now, the Howard Frankland has two spans: a southbound and a northbound side, each with four toll-free lanes.

Previous reports projected the new express lanes could cost drivers between 15 cents and $2 per mile.

Most of the structural work underpinning the bridge’s surface is complete. All the concrete pilings that comprise its foundation have been driven, and all but five of the horizontal beams that will connect spans of roadway are laid flat, noted David Alonso, construction project manager of FDOT. The deck, or concrete roadway, is a little over three-quarters complete, the agency said. By January or February, the road will be smooth and ready to go, said Marianne Brinson, senior project engineer of AtkinsRéalis, a Canadian firm overseeing the Howard Frankland construction.

Following that, crews will apply the bridge’s finishing touches, including barrier walls, signs, message boards and lighting.

The project’s completion in 2025 will cap off a process that began in November 2020.

Last summer, the most visible component of the project began with concrete pours to construct the bridge’s roadway decks.

“Most people are shocked at all the progress, but it’s kind of funny,” Alonso said. “We’ve been working for way longer than a year, it’s just most of the project was invisible underwater.”

Pending no delays from the busiest months of Florida’s hurricane season, construction is expected to wrap up on the Howard Frankland Bridge in early 2025.

In early August, the waters of Tampa Bay lapped dozens of feet below huge gaps in the middle of the bridge where beams are planned to be set. At the same time, aluminum and steel rebar were ready to bear the weight of cars, but concrete had not yet been poured. Alonso told the Times that that work will be done by November or December.

The middle of the Howard Franklin and its roadway approaches from the land need the most work, he added.

Fending Off Storm Damage Brinson said that the projected completion window for the new bridge could change if forecasts for an “extremely active” hurricane season this year hold true.

Still, a newly completed Howard Frankland is designed specifically to withstand worsening storms. High waters from Hurricane Debby, which recently lashed through Tampa Bay as a tropical storm, damaged the seawall and shoulder of the current northbound section of the bridge,

according to the Times.

While parts of the old span sit on top of sand, stone underlies the new bridge’s most vulnerable portions, a protection against erosion, Alonso said.

But storms also are the enemy of progress.

Days before Debby hit Florida in early August, construction on the new Howard Frankland halted in preparation for the storm. Tugboats pulled floating cranes away from the bridge and amassed them in a structure dubbed “crane island.”

If crews spend more days meticulously protecting the new bridge from storms, construction may last longer, Brinson said.

When finished, the new Howard Frankland structure will be 168 ft. wide — nearly three times the width of its southbound predecessor — and the largest by surface area of any other bridge in Florida. 

Balfour Beatty Wins North Carolina Airport Expansion Project Balfour Beatty has been selected to deliver the runway expansion at Albert J. Ellis Airport in Jacksonville, N.C., on behalf of Onslow County.

The project includes extensive renovation and expansion of the airport’s taxiway and runway to provide a transformative travel experience for travelers of Jacksonville, Wilmington, New Bern and Eastern North Carolina area.

Balfour Beatty serves as the general contractor for the airport’s new runway expansions which feature a new 900-ft. runway and taxiway extension to accommodate larger aircraft. The project team will install a new MediumIntensity Approach Light System with Runway (MALSR) to assist pilots’ departure and arrival queues.

Additionally, Balfour Beatty will deliver a new entrance to the

airport’s roadway and realign North Carolina Highway 111 (NC 111) to accommodate the extended runway.

“Balfour Beatty will leverage its extensive experience in the delivery of runway expansions to deliver these exciting new additions to Albert J. Ellis Airport,” said Josh Taylor, Balfour Beatty project executive in North Carolina.

“Once complete, the revitalized airport will provide a convenient

travel experience for passengers and the driving public who come to and from Onslow County.”

Balfour Beatty has experience with some of the most complex and recognizable airports over the past 75 years. In the Carolinas, the company has delivered various renovation and rehabilitation projects at Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU), and recently broke ground on the airport’s Runway 5L/23R

Replacement Program, which involves building a new primary runway and transforming the existing runway into a taxiway.

The approximately $30 million construction agreement was approved by the county in summer 2024 with full contract award expected in spring 2025.

Construction activities will commence at the end of 2024.

Joey Walker, a 23-year veteran of the Harrison Construction, currently serves as the company’s equipment manager and shop supervisor in eastern Tennessee.

Harrison Construction bought its newest Volvo L120 a few months ago for one of its concrete plants.

Volvo Wheel Loaders Critical to Harrison Construction Co.

By Eric Olson CEG CONTRIBUTING EDITOR

Any aggregates business that operates concrete plants, asphalt facilities and quarries can only be successful if it uses the best machines to move its heavy materials from one place to another.

One such firm is Harrison Construction Co., with offices in Knoxville, Tenn., and Asheville, N.C., that not only supplies and delivers construction aggregates in eastern Tennessee and western North Carolina but is itself a major paving contractor in the area.

Through its almost three dozen facilities, concrete plants and quarries scattered across the two states, Harrison helps builders create a full range of construction and development projects by supplying crushed stone, ready mix concrete and asphalt.

Founded in 1928 in Alcoa, Tenn., Harrison decades later became a division of CRH, a worldwide conglomerate and leading provider of building materials solutions.

A sister company to Harrison Construction is Harrison Aggregates, which operates all seven of its stone quarries in the mountains of southwestern North Carolina. In addition, the construction business runs a sand quarry in Monterey, near Cookeville, Tenn.

Harrison Favors Volvo Loaders Through ASCENDUM So just what type of equipment and brand has Harrison found to be one of its most valuable tools?

The man to answer that question is Joey Walker, a 23-year veteran of the company who currently serves as Harrison’s equipment manager and shop supervisor in eastern

Tennessee. His company has come to rely heavily on products made by Volvo Construction Equipment (CE) and purchased from the ASCENDUM Machinery branch location in Knoxville, he said.

More specifically, Walker noted that Harrison has come to increasingly rely on the Volvo L120 wheel loader over the past four years.

“We just bought our newest Volvo L120 a few months ago for one of our concrete plants, and that is the fourth L120 we have bought since 2020,” he said. “We have also purchased a Volvo L70 loader for another plant in Morristown, Tenn., because the people there needed a smaller loader bucket to fit into their bins.”

The latest L120 loader in Harrison’s fleet now works at the company’s concrete facility in Lenoir City, Tenn., and joins other Volvo loaders at Harrison-owned plants in Tennessee on Topside Road in Louisville, at the Lovell Road site in Knoxville, and at a nearby construction site.

Walker said Harrison enjoys using the Volvo wheel loaders because of how they are engineered to be both dependable and rugged.

“Since we bought the first two from ASCENDUM in 2020, we have not had to have any major repairs in that time, and that is hard to find,” he said. “With a lot of new machines, you can buy them and two months later start having problems.

“Volvos are also a very good fit for our concrete plants,” Walker added. “They are just the right size to get under the aggregate bins and take care of everything for us. Plus, the operators like them because of how easy they are to run. Their size and reliability are the best things about our Volvos. We put about 750 hours on them each year.”

He said that the operator of the last Volvo L120 that Harrison bought immediately noticed a stark difference between that machine and an older loader she had been using. The operator is now much more comfortable running the Volvo model.

ASCENDUM’s Service Backs Customers As Walker acts as both Harrison’s equipment manager and shop supervisor in the Knoxville region, his combined duties include taking care of the service department’s day-today operations where, he said, “if a piece of equipment breaks down, I either send out one of my mechanics or call one of our vendors to get them to make the repairs. I also monitor a five-year plan for the company to see what equipment we are going to need for the future and then purchase those machines.”

One of those vendors that Walker contacts in Knoxville, for both sales and service, is ASCENDUM, the N.C.-based distributor of Volvo CE and other construction equipment brands.

“I mainly deal with Brandon Grant in the service department at ASCENDUM,” Walker said. “He always gives us excellent care and is easy to work with. One day, I called him because we had a machine that was de-rated. He didn’t have any service techs available, so he went himself to where the equipment was, diagnosed the problem, ordered the part and it came in the next day. Soon, the machine was up and running again.

“A lot of times you can call a shop and they tell you they can’t get you in for two weeks, but Brandon always tells us that he can work on our machines either that day or the next to get us back and working quickly.” see HARRISON page 78

The Italian-based manufacturer offers six categories of all-terrain telehandlers in North America — small range, FS compact, FS middle, heavy-duty, big range and electric powered.

“We are extremely excited to represent a powerhouse like Faresin telehandlers because of the quality of its equipment and compatibility with our current product portfolio,” said Mark Bobo, Sound Heavy Machinery owner.

“Our ultimate goal is to serve our customer base with a total package of new and used equipment, rentals, parts and service, so Faresin fills a unique market gap for us and will be an ideal complement to our other construction, landscaping, agriculture, and forestry machines.”

Bobo founded SHM in 2010 and has shown steady growth since then. The Wilmington, N.C., firm offers other name-brand construction and landscaping equipment such as Anaconda, AUSA, ASV, Kobelco, XL Specialized Trailers, Terex rough terrain cranes, Lamtrac and Steel Systems Installation. Besides renting equipment and selling new and used parts, SHM services all makes and models of equipment for both the field and its service shop.

Faresin Industries, headquartered in Breganze, Italy, designs, manufactures and markets mixer wagons and ration analysis instruments for the livestock sector and telescopic handlers for agricultural and industrial use. The company was founded in 1973 by Sante Faresin, company president.

“Sound Heavy Machinery is a well-known dealer in the Carolinas and mid-Atlantic region who has made great strides in growing its customer base and services despite less-than-ideal market conditions the past few years,” said Austin Bailey, vice president Faresin photo of sales. “Mark and his staff took the time to understand the market and its customers, The Italian-based manufacturer offers six categories of all-terrain telehandlers in North so they are now poised to be a market leader. We feel like our all-terrain telehandlers America — small range, FS compact, FS middle, heavy-duty, big range and electric pow- will speed up the aggressive growth plans both organizations are implementing.”

Jupiter, Fla.’s U.S. 1 Bridge Construction Nearing Completion Construction on the new $122 million U.S. Highway 1 bridge over the Loxahatchee River and Intracoastal Waterway in Jupiter, Fla., has passed a milestone as crews work to reopen a lane in each direction this fall.

Two-thirds of the northern Palm Beach County project is complete, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) announced in early August. Motorists can see it jut out toward the other side of the river, with its lanes and control house taking shape.

One lane in each direction on the bridge’s southbound side — its western half — is currently targeted to open to drivers on Sunday, Nov. 10, along with its bike lane and sidewalk, explained Scott Case, the project’s senior engineer, in speaking with the Palm Beach Post.

The structure’s remaining lanes are scheduled to open after the new year, and the entire project is on track to end in the spring of 2026.

More than 100 construction personnel are working around the clock on weekdays and weekends, FDOT said.

During August, crews will continue to pour concrete — with about 350 tons poured so far — on the bridge tracks as well as install steel parts on the bridge’s piers and sidewalk slabs, and set concrete beams on its approach spans, the Post learned. Workers also are installing foundations for light poles.

Case said that heat is the biggest challenge for crews at the bridge site right now, noting that the summer’s 90-degree days and high humidity have made it difficult for the contractor, Johnson Bros. Corp., to keep up with production levels.

The team has kept water stations, fans and coolers handy and encourages crew members to take breaks.

He told the Post that if a hurricane threatens the Jupiter Inlet area this storm season, crews will secure parts of the bridge already in place and lower their construction cranes, a process that can take time, Case added. Barges also would be tied together and moved to a protected area.

Construction will not stop in the days leading up to a storm, he promised.

The U.S. 1 bridge closed for construction on March 13, 2023. The previous bridge linking Jupiter and Tequesta, just to the north, was built in 1958 before its condition deteriorated over time, leading to its demolition.

The new U.S. 1 bridge will have two 11-ft. vehicle lanes in each direction with 8-ft. sidewalks and 7-ft. bike lanes on both sides. That is in stark contrast to the old span, which had only a 2-ft. shoulder with no sidewalk.

While the new roadway structure is designed to be safer for pedestrians and bicyclists, it also is meant to be safer for boaters, with more room for vessels to pass beneath it, the Post reported. The old bridge had a vertical clearance of 25 ft. for boat traffic; the new one will rise to 42 ft.

Throughout the project, crews kept the 90-ft. delineated channel near the bridge open to boaters. By the time of its completion, though, it will widen to 120 ft. according to FDOT. That change will allow for 44 percent fewer bridge openings, which the state agency said will improve the flow of traffic on U.S. 1. see BRIDGE page 27

FDOT Begins Replacing Peace River Bridge in Polk County Crews working for FDOT began rerouting traffic Aug. 5 on Florida’s County Line Road on the Polk-Hardee county border near Bowling Green prior to the start of an effort to remove a 66-year-old bridge over the Peace River, the Lakeland Ledger reported.

The $5.3 million project is located 1.3 mi. east of the Bowling Green city limits and is expected to take about 13 months to complete, pending weather or other unforeseen circumstances during construction, the transportation department said in a press release.

The existing bridge has two 12-ft. travel lanes, FDOT noted. The new bridge will continue to have a pair of lanes, but with 8-ft. shoulders on each side. Additionally, a maintenance connection road will be built on the north side of County Line Road west of the structure, and new guardrail installation is planned.

The bridge, constructed in 1958, needs replacement due to the poor condition of the substructure. FDOT said the new structure will be built to modern standards and significantly reduce maintenance. 

Crews Drill Shafts With Goal of Decreasing Columns in River BRIDGE from page 1

westbound bridge is a more modern bridge, built in the 60s or 70s; however, the foundation of it has been impacted by periodic flooding of the Pearl River. Therefore, the decision was made to replace both bridges as part of one project.”

About 16,000 vehicles travel this major route for the nearby city of Columbia each day. Like many highways, traffic is heaviest during peak morning and evening commute times.

“The U.S. 98 eastbound bridge closure has caused more congestion in the area, but most motorists understand the need for the project, and accept the temporary inconvenience that comes with improvements of this nature,” said Whittington.

“Currently, a head-to-head traffic configuration is in place on the westbound bridge while the eastbound bridge is being replaced. No wide loads exceeding 10 feet are permitted over the westbound bridge. Once construction is completed on the eastbound bridge, traffic will be shifted to the eastbound bridge in a head-to-head configuration, while the westbound bridge is closed for replacement.”

The new bridges will be up to modern standards and will feature wider lanes and shoulders. Also, drill shafts and steel spans will be used in the construction, making it possible to lengthen the span and decrease the number of columns in the middle of the river.

“Fewer columns will improve marine traffic, making the Pearl River easier to travel, while also decreasing the likelihood of a bridge strike by a marine vessel. Additionally, seasonal flooding brings debris such as downed trees into the river channel. This debris tends to collect on anything located in the main river channel to the point where we have had to let contracts for debris removal.”

T.L. Wallace was the lowest bidder for the project.

“The company is based in Columbia,” said Whittington.

“The close proximity of the project to the contractor’s headquarters means that general mobilization to the project site takes place more quickly, saving time and money on the project.

“The contractor also will stabilize the channel north of the

bridge sites in an effort to prevent erosion and scour issues that have impacted the current bridges.”

Whittington explained the work is going well overall, with no major issues.

“Though construction is progressing smoothly, one aspect where crews have had to make adjustments is due to an environmental concern with fish in the Pearl River. So as not to disturb the breeding season for the Gulf sturgeon, the contractor paused the bridge removal process.”

The contractor was able to resume removing the old bridge’s columns in the Pearl River in June.

To keep the project on pace, work shifted to other tasks during that time. Crews assembled steel reinforcement cages for the trial drill shaft.

Regarding site work, earthwork and bridge and pavement demolition have been required, as well as riprap placement on the north riverbank.

“Portions of the eastbound bridge have been removed and bank stabilization work has begun. Bank stabilization efforts involve the placement of riprap in the channel and riverbank to prevent erosion and scour that can cause damage to the

bridge foundations.”

Whittington noted the importance of mitigating erosion in the area.

“To protect and maintain infrastructure, the land underneath must be stable. The Pearl River has a strong current, and mitigating erosion and scour is necessary to stabilize nearby infrastructure over the long term.”

Whittington said, so far, the elements have not been an issue.

“The project began in the late winter/early spring, which is typically rainy in Mississippi; however, we haven't had see BRIDGE page 62

Calder Brothers Holds Fourth Annual Echoes of Emma Event

E

mma Calder, daughter of Dave and Sally Calder, passed away on Sept. 15, 2020.

Emma’s dream was to go to Clemson University with her sisters.

In memory of Emma, the family set up a scholarship fund with Clemson to allow students in need to achieve their dream of a college education. To support this scholarship, the fourth annual “Echoes of Emma” golf tournament was held Aug. 19, 2024; a silent auction was held the evening before.

The fundraising goal was high, but everyone came together and doubled the size of the golf tournament from the year before. There were 8:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. shotgun starts to accommodate all the players and nearly 300 members of the community attended the silent auction fundraiser. The family was and continues to be overjoyed with everyone’s generosity and support.

“If you didn’t know Emma, she was 16 years old and a junior at Wade Hampton High School,” her family said. “She was funny, shy, tender-hearted,

wild, untamable, smart and a million other things. She loved nature, animals and the Earth, in general. She loved the ocean and wanted to become a marine biologist, maybe even move to Hawaii someday.”

Emma truly looked forward to being a Clemson Tiger.

“So many people wanted to help after the accident, and this scholarship gave the family a unique opportunity to channel this into something positive that can both honor Emma as well as help someone else,” said David Calder. “They truly believe that this is what Emma would have wanted. She was so kind and had an unmatched compassion and empathy for others.”

“Thank you all for your support in our efforts and for everyone helping us on this project,” said Carly, Ellie, David and Sally Calder. “Emma is always on our minds, and we want to share her memory and her kindness with as many people as we can.”  CEG (All photographs in this article are Copyright 2024 Construction Equipment Guide. All Rights Reserved.) see EMMA page 40

(L-R): Sally, Carly, Ellie and David Calder were thrilled to see so many of their friends attend the silent auction party.

Many of Sally and David Calder’s friends worked very hard assisting the family in putting on the auction and golf tournament. The team (L-R) included Jenni Hayes, Georgia Luquire, Shannon Spurrier, Brandee Sponseller, Tripp Edwards, Tim Hayes, Brett Sponseller and Buddy Spurrier.

Looking forward to a pleasant day on the course are Cameron Calder (L) and Brian Dona.

XBroom Sweepers’ special edition Raised On Blacktop sweeper.

Promoting the brand American Pavement Specialists has always been a high priority for Bill Stanley, the company’s owner. Thirty years ago, when he started the company, the name American Pavement Specialists came about partially as a result of the fact that the “A” in the American Pavement Specialists name would put them at the top of the list of the Paving Category in the Yellow Pages.

But that was 30 years ago, and the Yellow Pages have all but disappeared. In the early 2000s, Stanley saw that the trends had shifted, and it was time to put more emphasis on Web-based marketing.

“My vision was a website that would help customers understand what we offer and what various aspects of their project would look like,” he said. “I envisioned a website that would have a ‘Paving’ tab and give a video of what paving looks like. The same idea with ‘Milling,’ ‘Striping,’ and any of the services that we offer.

“Unfortunately, Web development at that time was very expensive and it was difficult to accomplish exactly what I

was looking for,” he added. “It didn’t really have a name at the time, but we were one of the first companies to use social media to promote ourselves. There was no Instagram, Tik Tok or YouTube, but what was out there was a site called Facebook that was wildly popular with young people, and that’s where our social media presence started.

Connecticut Business Promotes Paving Industry Via Social Media Campaign PAVEMENT from page 44

“We made up our own Facebook business page account and we started by taking pictures of trucks, primarily because my kids were at an age when they thought trucks were really cool and would get a lot of attention. We then started to put pictures of projects that were completed or in the process of being worked on. In no amount of time at all our Facebook became wildly popular. The best part was it was free.

“Over time we loaded Facebook with pictures and videos of everything we do. If we were quoting a milling job and the customer asked about the milling process or what equipment we use, we could send them straight to Facebook. When Instagram came along, we immediately got involved with project pictures and in no time at all we had 10,000 followers. Instagram, with its heavy emphasis on photographs, turned into an overnight sensation for us. We currently have 143,000 followers on Instagram.

“YouTube has been another big success for us. We just keep feeding it videos of our projects. The YouTube channel has been a big hit within the industry. I am constantly amazed by how many of our fellow contractors and people involved in paving equipment manufacturing are tracking our posts on YouTube.”

Stanley’s sons have been involved in the business since a very young age, and they take a lot of pride and an active role in the company’s Web marketing — they developed the idea of becoming social media influencers within the paving industry. They also developed the phrase “Raised on Blacktop.”

The idea was to create a forum that promotes the asphalt and paving industries as well as giving information on how paving contractors can improve their businesses. Once again, it became nearly an overnight sensation, Stanley said. see PAVEMENT page 50

LeeBoy 8520 Raised On Blacktop edition.

PAVEMENT from page 48

Today “Raised On Blacktop” has 75,000 Instagram followers as well as several thousand followers on Facebook. In fact, the “Raised on Blacktop” concept has become so popular it now has its own apparel line. There is a daily stream of orders for branded hats, t-shirts and hoodies. In 2023, they had hundreds of thousands in just t-shirt sales. Orders come from across the world, including Paraguay, Australia and Saudi Arabia.

The company is even currently working on a deal to create “Raised on Blacktop” work shoes.

According to Stanley, the Raised on Blacktop theme has become so popular that companies like LeeBoy, Mauldin, John Deere, Bagela, Wirtgen, Trout River Trailers, XBroom Sweepers and Shoulder Master sweepers have released special “Raised on Blacktop” editions of their equipment.

“They pay us to operate their equipment and then promote it on our social media platforms,” Stanley said. “As an example, Mauldin released a Raised on Blacktop motor grader that includes the Raised on Blacktop logo prominently displayed on the machine and a number of upgrades to the machine that we worked with Mauldin to develop, including a special lighting package, a more comfortable seat and a special paint job.

“Trout River Trailers worked closely with us to develop an auger truck for an asphalt transfer trailer. It features an 8foot auger for unloading in specific spots, particularly in hard-to-reach areas, and the auger is completely operated by a remote control to give very precise delivery and allowing your worker to see exactly what is going on. The end result is something that looks a little bit like a hybrid of an asphalt trailer and stone slinger. “Trout River was amazing to work with. We had a concept of what we wanted but did not have the capacity to create it and their engineers worked very closely with us to create a new product to help us specifically meet some of our needs.” see PAVEMENT page 52

‘Raised On Blacktop’ Shares Tips On Best Practices for Paving Businesses PAVEMENT from page 50

XBroom, a sweeper company, also has gotten onboard with a Raised on Blacktop special edition. Like the others, it features the Raised on Blacktop logo and then some added features that aren’t included in its standard lineup.

“The LeeBoy special edition model is a LeeBoy 8520 paver, again with the Raised on Blacktop logo and some extra features that we worked with LeeBoy on. For instance, we made a tool carrying kit that holds shovels, rakes, etc. It has a special color scheme, additional LED lighting and strobe lights for visibility. More than 250 machines have been sold thus far.

“This machine is so popular that LeeBoy has them on backorder. LeeBoy was the first company to work with us on special edition machines. We have a great history with LeeBoy; we’ve done business with them since we opened our doors and I’ve probably bought 20 LeeBoy machines in the past 25 years. We’ve stayed very loyal to the LeeBoy brand. They demonstrate a huge commitment to the paving industry, and they are leaders in innovation. Just about every year there are improvements to the machines that were close to perfect to begin with.

Raised On Blacktop Shoulder Master broom, which was introduced by Shoulder Master and Bill Stanley at the World of Asphalt.

“Raised on Blacktop is designed to accomplish that, but also to help encourage a new generation of people coming into this industry and make sure that they are well suited to do excellent work.

“We consider ourselves a premium contractor. We do extremely good work and as a result we get paid a premium price. We are showing other contractors how to achieve getting themselves into this premium contractor position. It is to our advantage at American Pavement Specialists to have as many paving contractors as possible doing premium work.

The reason, if everyone is doing premium work, the industry can maintain work at healthier pricing levels because they’re not competing with competitors that do inferior work.

“I have been in this business for 45 years, where I started with a pick and a shovel. We have a lot of experiences to share. We are always looking for ways to do a better job and when we find them, we use Raised on Blacktop and its social media presence to share that information.

“We try to instill in all of our followers the importance of giving your employees as good a working environment as you can possibly have, considering the extreme conditions we work in. For instance, we have started ordering our asphalt rollers with a heated and air-conditioned cab. It’s critical these days to keep your employees as happy as possible.

We don’t find ourselves in the polarizing position of not being able to find help.

“Through things like putting cabs on rollers, we make our employees’ working environment as pleasant as possible.

The machines in our fleet are new or like-new, which is a pleasure for an employee to operate. After every job, we clean and service every piece that’s been used so that our employees have good and reliable equipment to go out and work with. American Pavement Specialists has built a brand that people want to work for.”

The service and maintenance of the equipment fleet does a lot more than just keep employees happy. The equipment in the fleet is typically worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. Keeping machines in peak working order is a part of the company’s philosophy that pays off with significantly longer life of the machines, which in turn pays big dividends.

Stanley’s heavy emphasis on marketing his company, producing excellent quality work and taking good care of his equipment has all paid off. In Connecticut, Stanley said, he is known as the guy you want doing your job. It’s not unusual for potential customers to immediately say, “yes, I’ve heard about you guys, you do really good work.”

American Pavement Specialists is a marketing-driven company, and it does far more than market its website and its social media platforms. For example, at one time it sponsored a car in the NASCAR truck series that was driven by Spencer Boyd. Another aspect of its marketing vision is having every machine in the fleet carefully detailed with the company’s logo, and then making sure that every machine looks as shiny and clean as the day it was purchased when it is delivered at the job site, further enhancing American Pavement Specialists’ image.

EMR Helps Determine Workers’ Compensation Premiums

By Lucy Perry

CEG CORRESPONDENT

Many construction contractors are overlooking a partner in their quest for jobsite safety: their insurers. Taking advantage of safety analysis programs provided by insurance carriers can result in immediate premium discounts for fleet liability plans.

However, insurers are not pushing their clients often enough to make simple changes to mitigate the safety risks on the job.

Contractors know company safety directly impacts insurance rates. Insurers assess the risk of covering contractors based on their safety practices.

“A strong safety record can lead to lower premiums,” said New York contractor GTL Construction.

A comprehensive employee safety training program should start with the proper use of equipment, hazard recognition and emergency procedures.

Regular safety audits and inspections can help identify hazards before they cause harm, said GTL. “By addressing these issues proactively, firms can maintain a safer work environment and demonstrate their commitment to safety to insurers.”

So can ensuring that all workers use appropriate PPE such as helmets, gloves and safety glasses.

Not only do PPEs reduce the severity of injury, but they demonstrate a proactive approach to risk management, believes GTL. The construction company advises contractors to promoting a culture of safety. The culture should make every employee understand their role in maintaining a safe work environment that can lead to fewer accidents and injuries.

“This culture should be supported by management and include regular safety meetings and open communication about safety concerns.”

The Experience Modification Rate (EMR) is a crucial metric used by insurance companies to determine workers’ compensation premiums.

GTL explained that the rate is a numerical representation of a company’s past injury claims compared to the injury average.

An EMR of 1.0 is considered average; below 1.0 indicates a better-than-average record. And an EMR above 1.0 means a worse-than-average safety record.

The EMR is calculated over a three-year period and considers the number of claims, their severity and the industry average, said GTL in a company blog.

“The EMR directly affects the cost of workers’ compensation insurance,” according to the blog. “A lower EMR results in lower premiums, as it indicates a lower risk

Contractors and insurance providers must work together to reduce jobsite safety risks and lower premiums.

of future claims. Conversely, a higher EMR leads to higher premiums.”

Contractors can improve EMR by implementing robust safety programs, promptly addressing hazards and effectively managing claims.

“Reducing the frequency and severity of workplace injuries will lead to lower EMR over time,” said the construction company.

Controlling Insurance Rates The topic of contractor-controlled insurance packages was discussed at a 2023 International Risk Management Institute

conference.

These packages can be structured to produce premium discounts when fewer claims are filed, according to risk management experts.

Writing for Insurance Journal, William Rabb said insurers are hands-off a lot of the time when it comes to advising their contractor clients.

“To a large degree, workers’ compensation and commercial liability insurers leave it mostly to contractors to vet their operations for safety,” wrote Rabb.

“It’s usually not until after the fact, after

Some insurance providers will require a loss control specialist inspect a construction site for potential risks.

something happens,” said TJ Lyons, a safety consultant who spoke at the construction risk conference Contractors across the country are overlooking crucial changes in safety practices, said Lyons.

In fact, Rabb noted that unsafe practices in the United States contribute to approximately 2,000 construction worker fatalities each year.

Lyons believes the best way to foster safer job sites is to adopt best practices and insist on their consistent use. He thinks best practices and safer equipment should be part of any contracts between contractor and subcontractors.

Safety innovations should be built into a project at the design stage, said Lyons adding that safety folks are rarely involved at this point.

A strategic approach to improved safety and lower EMR needs management commitment, employee engagement and continuous improvement, believes GTL. Start by developing a comprehensive safety program, suggests the company. “A well-structured program should include clear policies and procedures.”

A solid program also means regular training sessions and a system for reporting and addressing safety concerns.

“This program should be reviewed and updated regularly to incorporate new safety standards and best practices,” said GTL. Involving employees can raise their commitment to a safe work environment, said GTL. Safety committees, suggestion programs and recognition of safe behavior can engage employees.

Identify patterns and areas of needed improvement by tracking and analyzing detailed records of safety incidents. With this information, targeted interventions that reduce the risk of future incidents can be developed, said GTL. Modern safety technology as well as effective injury management and return-towork programs can reduce the impact of incidents on EMR. “Investing in safety and reducing the EMR can lead to significant financial benefits for construction firms,” said GTL, offering points to keep in mind: A lower EMR results in lower workers’ comp premiums, leading to substantial cost savings over time. Companies with strong safety records and lower insurance costs can offer more competitive bids on projects, increasing their chances of winning contracts. A safe work environment leads to higher employee morale and retention, reducing turnover costs and increasing productivity. Fewer accidents and injuries see SAFETY page 66

Environmental Issue Brings Demolition to Temporary Halt BRIDGE from page 34

unusual weather so far that has affected the project.”

Dirt quantities are relatively small, with the project calling for approximately 10,000 cu. yds. of unclassified and excess material which is mostly around the bridge ends.

Also, approximately 25,000 cu. yds. of borrow material is being used to build the crossovers for swapping traffic, as well as building out the slopes to current federal standards.

Heavy equipment being used on the project includes multiple size cranes, track excavators, dump trucks, milling machines, skid steer loaders, concrete pump trucks and specialized drilling equipment for drilled shafts.

According to Whittington, fabrication of steel members can be one of the most timeconsuming tasks for crews. Additionally, setting up adequate work bridges/platforms can take time before actual construction on the bridge takes place.

While it’s still early in the process, Whittington said construction is on schedule to be completed in 2027 and will make for a

smoother driving experience.

“The project will bring the bridges up to modern standards, enhancing safety for both motorists and marine traffic.”

He added, “As a longtime resident of Columbia, I'm proud to serve the community by ensuring this bridge is well built and meets the needs of the next generation.”  CEG

Expert Lends Advice On Power of Preventive Maintenance

Mike Daves is a service writer at Wilson Equipment in Central Point, Ore.

Meet Mike Daves, a seasoned service writer at Wilson Equipment in Central Point, Oregon. Mike brings more than 20 years of experience as a field service technician after graduating from WyoTech trade school.

Today, Mike handles service inquiries, generates work orders and coordinates with the service team. He’s seen it all.

DEVELON asked Mike about the most commonly overlooked maintenance tasks and how you can minimize your service needs.

What are the most overlooked maintenance tasks you see?

Monitoring fluid levels. Customers often neglect daily checks. They might say “It’s good. I checked it.” What they don’t know is that it could have developed a serious leak during operation, and now the machine doesn’t have the oil they thought it had. Inspect fuel and hydraulic fluid levels daily for optimal machine performance.

What else do customers commonly miss?

Customers often miss our maintenance matrix, which is displayed in a circular format on every machine. This unique layout provides a clear guide to essential maintenance tasks, including locating greasing

points, to ensure optimal machine care.

What are the most critical daily maintenance tasks?

During morning inspections, it is crucial to recognize such warning signs as unusual track movements or new noises like clinking or squealing. These indicate potential machinery issues. Ignoring a $400 roller replacement can turn into a $14,000 repair.

Any advice for operators?

Allow the engine to idle for 5 to 10 minutes before operation. Warming the fluids is crucial, especially with modern machinery’s tighter tolerances. This practice applies not only to cold climates but also to hotter regions of the United States. I consistently warm up every machine before use.

What’s the best source for maintenance info?

The best place to find preventive maintenance schedules is in the Operation and Maintenance Manual. Familiarizing yourself with the manual ensures self-sufficiency and minimizes the need for assistance.  (This article originally appeared in the Summer 2024 edition of Onward Magazine, a custom publication of DEVELON.

Ask Insurers How to Mitigate Risk, Reduce Insurance Premiums SAFETY from page 60

reduce the risk of legal action and regulatory fines, leading to further cost savings. A strong commitment to safety enhances a company’s reputation, making it more attractive to clients, partners, and potential employees.

American construction contractors could easily adopt safety products and best practices they’re currently overlooking, he said.

Simple steps include getting rid of ladders on construction sites. “Falls from ladders are a leading cause of serious injuries and injury claims,” said Lyons.

He believes only mechanized lifts should be used on job sites, and stilts, currently illegal in some states, should be banned for risk of injury from falls.

Safety managers and site supervisors should prevent the use of heavy equipment in blind spots.

“Some cranes and boom trucks have the lift arm at a resting position to the side of the driver compartment, blocking the lateral view,” said Lyons.

Electrical panels should readily indicate if, and when, they are energized instead of forcing a worker to open the panel to check.

Lyons said some units are designed with windows on the panel itself; other manufac-

turers offer light-up devices.

“Don’t use powder-activated fastener systems that contain lead,” he advised. “Put it in the contract — guns with no lead.”

With the nation’s diminishing workforce, drop-arrest hoisting systems should be used.

Better than a rope to lift heavy loads to height, drop-stop load arrestors prevent material and equipment from falling onto workers if the rope is released.

Have systems pre-assembled and delivered. Load electrical cables into conduit offsite and build rebar mats in the shop, saving time in the process, said Lyons.

Looking to Your Provider Ask your insurer for advice on how to mitigate risk, improve EMR and reduce the cost of insurance premiums.

Many workers comp insurance companies hire third-party vendors for jobsite inspections, said Mordechai Kamenetsky of Kickstand Insurance.

Representatives can inspect a construction site for potential risks, which they then discuss with the contractor in charge of the job site.

“These loss control specialists can provide employers with recommendations regarding what changes may need to be

made,” said Kamenetsky.

In fact, insurers may require certain actions be taken to reduce risk after the loss control inspection is completed, he said.

“Typically, they are going to look for potential issues that could cause harm to workers [and] end up causing workers’ compensation claims in the future.”

You can ask your insurer to work with you by providing you with a list of best practices to follow. The goal is to reduce claims in the future.

Site visits and loss control surveys are often required by insurance companies as a part of your workers’ compensation policy.

“Those who are happy with their current insurer should strive to make any changes discussed with the inspector,” said Kamenetsky.

He urges contractors not to ignore calls from loss control inspectors. It can be a “huge” mistake.

“It will make it appear to your insurance company that you aren’t willing to go through the inspection and make changes,” he said. “Remember, their recommendations are not usually a suggestion. They need to be adhered to if you hope to keep your current workers’ compensation policy.”

If you ignore the calls and e-mails the inspector will be forced to report to the insurer your failure to comply with policy — considered grounds for cancellation.

“Although some businesses might feel that insurance companies are overstepping … it’s important to remember that it benefits everyone,” said Kamenetsky.

Business owners don’t want workers injured and insurers don’t want to pay out claims if there are preventable measures that can be taken instead.

He said in some instances, insurance companies might even offer incentives to businesses that take certain actions to reduce risk.

If a business is deemed high-risk for some reason and they don’t remedy the issues, the insurer could increase the cost of the policy or not offer a policy at all.

“Of course, you will also find that loss control inspections end up being good for the employees, as well,” Kamenetsky said.

Working with your insurer by complying with inspections can help to ensure your company is taking action to make the workplace safer, he said.

“This cuts down on injuries, time out of work and claims. Everyone will benefit.”  CEG

Takeuchi-US Hires New Director of Operations for South Carolina Facility Chris Burdette has been named director of operations at the Takeuchi-US compact track loader production facility in Moore, S.C. Burdette will oversee all functions at the facility, including safety, production, maintenance, procurement, financial control, budgeting and human resources. He will lead and mentor his staff, as well as work with the Takeuchi headquarters office to develop annual plans and policies for the Moore location, along with other duties as required.

“Takeuchi has such a bright culture that places safety and quality at center stage,” Burdette said. “I am so excited to join an organization that’s focused on innovation and scale but also works diligently to stay grounded, with transparency and integrity at its foundation.”

Burdette comes to Takeuchi-US with more than two decades of experience spanning logistics, continuous improvement initiatives, manufacturing operations and quality integrations. His most recent role was as director of operations for a global instrumentation company, where he improved on-time delivery by 25 percent and the accuracy of customer communications by 50 percent.

“Chris has spent nearly 20 years working in a wide variety of manufacturing environments,” said Jeff Stewart, president of TakeuchiUS. “Not only is he passionate about providing customers with the highest quality products, but he’s also a leader who brings people together and encourages collaboration and growth. I’m looking forward to the positive energy he will bring to our South Carolina facility and its staff.”

Spectacular Mountain Roads Among Harrison’s Projects Beyond its network of quarries and concrete plants, Harrison Construction’s other work involves running its own road paving and concrete crews, Walker said, a switch from its many years working primarily in earthmoving.

One of the company’s projects was a paving job on eastern Tennessee’s Foothills Parkway, a scenic road similar to the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina and Virginia’s Skyline Drive that offers spectacular views of the Great Smokies Mountains at its southern end.

The Foothills Parkway has been in the works for approximately 75 years, and is likely to last another two decades, but Walker said that his company completed a major, 16-mi. portion of the route a few years ago near Walland, Tenn.

Currently, Harrison is working on repaving the formidable Tail of the Dragon, an often-challenging stretch of U.S. Highway 129 that starts in Blount County, Tenn., and crosses southeast through the Great Smokies to Robbinsville, N.C. The roadway gets its name from the 318 sharp curves — resembling a dragon’s tail — that motorists must maneuver within just 11 mi. of the two-lane route in Tennessee.

“It is a really popular road for motorcycle and sports car enthusiasts,” Walker said. “We are paving from the North

Carolina-Tennessee state line down to the end of it in Robbinsville.”

Harrison’s repaving of the Tail of the Dragon project will make it easier for tourists heading to the serpentine roadway from the Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge area in Tennessee via the completed southern sections of the Foothills Parkway.

The construction company is currently working on Interstate 75 in Tennessee’s Anderson County, an approximately 5.5-mi.-long project from Tennessee Highway 61 southeast into Knox County.

All this work can, at times, greatly increase the volume of asphalt that Harrison puts on roadbeds in a single year, Walker said.

“For instance, I know in 2022 we put down about a halfmillion tons of asphalt,” he said. “We typically run three to five paving crews a year, based on market opportunities. In 2022, though, we had to run five crews to keep up with all the work he had.”

Among other contractors in the region, though, Harrison Construction is best known for the broad category of course particulate material it produces — everything from decorative landscaping chips to base stone for foundations in roads and railroads as well as key components of composite materials such as concrete and asphalt.  CEG (All photographs in this article are Copyright 2024 Construction Equipment Guide.

Jeff Martin Auctioneers Holds Sale in Kissimmee, Fla.

J

eff Martin Auctioneers held an auction Aug. 20 to 21 in Kissimmee, Fla.

The Jeff Martin Auctioneers Brown Farm site in Kissimmee is home to the company’s largest sale of the year in February during the Florida Auctions and continues to be a successful auctioning site throughout the year, as well.

Both onsite and online bidders vied for a nice selection of heavy iron, lifts and mini/compact machines. An air-condition big top tent kept onsite bidder cool during the hot, humid Florida day.  CEG Craig Wilson (L) of Palm Bay Concrete & Materials in (All photographs in this article are Copyright 2024 Melbourne, Fla., talks with another registered bidder Mark Yarbrough of Intrac Corporation in Lake Wales, about his test run on a Takeuchi TB216 mini-excava- Fla., inspects a couple of wheel loaders he was consid- Construction Equipment Guide.

ering buying.

If you needed a lift, this was definitely the sale to attend.

Looking over some of the big machines, which he may be hauling out for customers, is Craig Clausnitzer of Valley Transportation, Grand Meadow, Minn.

Interested in a John Deere 350G excavator in the auction lineup are Adam Turnbaugh (in cab) and Shawn Wiebelt, both of SAW Enterprises, Melbourne, Fla.

A bidder inspects and tests a Cat 312D excavator.

Bidders showed up early to get some inspection time before the auctioning started.

The auction featured eight 2021 John Deere 310E articulated trucks in very good condition.

New ride-on mini-compact track loaders are becoming a huge seller at auction and are a landscaper’s and rental house “must have” machine.
