C.E. Rentals Family Mourns Its Founder, Stanley R. Sloan

Stanley R. Sloan, founder of Contractors Equipment Rentals in Elmhurst, Ill., passed away on June 28, surrounded by his family. He would have been 91 on July 4.
A native of Detroit, Mich., where he spent his childhood and young adulthood, he was an Air Force Veteran of the Korean war with four years of military service.
Mr. Sloan graduated from Hillsdale College before moving to the Chicago area as an accountant with Montgomery Ward. He met Joanne Kulinski and they married in 1963. They moved to St. Paul, Minn., where they began their family of four children.
Eventually, Chicago called him back and the family settled in Elmhurst, Ill., for the rest of his life.
Everyone always knew how proud he was of his family. He made sure to spend time with them at the family cottage on Lake Erie in Canada for relaxing summers at the beach and later in life during winters inside around the fireplace.
Mr. Sloan had a great love for his country and especially his adopted hometown of Elmhurst and the Chicago Land area. He found the city to be a dynamic and growing source of business opportunities and he loved to discuss business, markets and new entrepreneurial ideas. These discussions led Mr. Sloan to launch Contractors Equipment Rentals (C.E. Rentals), which he ran with his son, Robert, for more than three decades.
In January 1990, Mr. Sloan attended the ARA show in Chicago and purchased $40,000 dollars of equipment at the Wacker Neuson booth.
“When they asked him where to ship the equipment, he said ‘I'll get back to you; I need to find a location,’” said Robert Sloan.
CE Rentals found its first home on Rt. 83 in Elmhurst and opened for business in May of that year. Mr. Sloan worked from his home office until the day before his death.
He could be found each morning reading the Wall Street Journal, catching up on the news of the day. Mr. Sloan, a child of Detroit, grew up in the shadow of the “Big Three” automakers, worked for the companies during high school summers and never lost his love of cars.
He followed each new change with great interest — for instance when the bigger cars became smaller and more efficient, when the manual transmissions moved to computerized and automated. Every five years, he traded in for a new one, carefully choosing each cars’ name according to the alphabet. Throughout his life, he got through the alphabet A-Z as he raised the family and was well into the second round with his current car.
Mr. Sloan was a curious and well-read citizen who cared deeply for his large and extended family and was generous with his time when help was needed. Mr. Sloan was the beloved husband of Joanne, nee Kulinski, for 59 years; much beloved father of Suzanne (Jonathan Eichman), Julianne, John (Debbie) and Robert (Sheryl) Sloan; loving grandfather of Andrew, Julia, Anna, Christopher, Amanda, Daniel, Joseph, Thomas, Jacob, and Matthew; dear son of the late Stanley and the late Julia (nee Surowicz) and brother of Michael (Jane) Sloan and the late Suzanne Sloan.
A Mass of Christian burial was held July 2, 2022, at Visitation Catholic Church in Elmhurst.

The high reach used a LaBounty MDP 20R multi-demolition processor to crush the top concrete segments of the panel while the bracing held the panels in place.

Photo courtesy of Company Wrench Removing the pre-cast 47-ft. tall panels presented a challenge. Doyle Burgess, Company Wrench’s territory sales manager, recommended a Kobelco SK300 excavator with a 50-ft. high reach front.
The day after a March fire engulfed a large distribution center, local authorities called Casey-Bertram to provide immediate support to the fire department. The Indianapolisbased demolition contractor traveled to Plainfield, Ind., to drag semi-truck trailers away from the 1.1 million sq.-ft. building, which allowed firefighters to concentrate their efforts on areas that were previously inaccessible and safely mitigate the fire.
After the fire was extinguished, CaseyBertram was tasked with the teardown of several concrete pre-cast panels near key utility systems. Casey-Bertram’s proven track record over the last 30 years made it the perfect candidate for this project.
Teardown Challenge
Removing the pre-cast panels was challenging for two unique reasons — they were 47 ft. tall and within 30 ft. of critical utility systems that supported an adjacent distribution center with more than 1,000 employees. These utility systems included two 300,000gal. water tanks; a three-story battery recharging station for the center’s forklifts; and multiple electrical transformers. It was imperative to remove the pre-cast panels within their footprint to avoid disrupting operations at the nearby distribution center.
Normally, the Cat 330 and two Komatsu PC300s in Casey-Bertram’s fleet are enough to support a safe demolition project. However, in this situation, Casey-Bertram’s co-owner and president, Scott Casey, knew he needed a high reach excavator to meet the unique challenges of this job.
Acquiring High Reach
Casey contacted Company Wrench, a specialty equipment dealership headquartered in Carroll, Ohio, to inquire about renting a high reach excavator. The company offers a variety of high reach fronts ranging from 50 ft. to 100 ft.
Doyle Burgess, Company Wrench’s territory sales manager, recommended a Kobelco SK300 with a 50-ft. high reach front with a LaBounty multi-demolition processor (MDP 20R). Casey stressed the importance of getting the machine onsite as quickly as possible to avoid critical damage to the utility systems.
“Doyle bent over backwards for us,” Casey said. “I told him what the situation was, and I sent him some information. He selected the machine, the tool and the height. Then he arranged trucking, and the machine was delivered within a few days. He went above and beyond to get it onsite as soon as possible.”
Executing Plan
Once the high reach excavator was delivered, Casey-Bertram initiated its plan to safely remove pre-cast panels from the building within their footprint. This process required all four machines and metal bracing to ensure the panels would collapse as intended. The high reach used the MDP 20R to crush the top concrete segments of the panel while the bracing held the panels in place.
The other three machines used buckets to support and reposition the bracing as the high reach continued to make cuts with the MDP 20R. Once debris accumulated on the ground, Casey-Bertram’s excavators used shears, processors and buckets to clear a path to allow the high reach to continue moving forward.
The process took about a week, avoided damage to the utility systems and did not interrupt the operations at the neighboring distribution center. Without this timely teardown, the unstable pre-cast panels may have fallen off the building, potentially creating large utility costs and impacting more than 1,000 employees.
Next Steps
It was ultimately determined the entire building needed to be demolished due to the damage caused by the fire. The next step is to remove the remaining pre-cast panels, which span approximately one mile in length. This process will not require the same pinpoint accuracy that was used previously because the remaining sections are not close to utility systems. The timetable on the complete demolition of the building is unknown due to several outside factors, but this first step of the process was considered a success by all parties involved.

CEG CORRESPONDENT
Due to a $25 million naming gift from Kiewit Corporation, along with donations from individuals, corporations and foundations, construction is well under way on an academic hub for undergraduate engineering education at the University of NebraskaLincoln (UNL). The $115 million Kiewit Hall project, the largest academic building effort in the University of Nebraska’s history, will include classrooms, instructional labs and an outdoor plaza for the university community. It also will house Lincoln-based construction management programs.
A construction crane is among the heavy equipment being used on the job site. The project totals 182,080 sq. ft.
Preliminary work began in fall 2020, with an estimated completion date of 2023. Clark & Enersen and Ballinger were selected as architects for the project, while Kiewit serves as construction manager.
“In our company’s earliest days, Peter Kiewit came to the University of Nebraska to find the engineers that made the company what it is today, and the university has remained incredibly important to us,” said Rick Lanoha, Kiewit Corporation president and chief executive officer, quoted in a UNL news release highlighting the June groundbreaking. “When this opportunity came along to build this world-class facility, it was a unanimous vote at our board of directors meeting.”
The facility is being built on the east side of UNL’s existing engineering complex, east of Othmer Hall and across 17th Street, which is now closed to traffic. Kiewit Hall was designed to connect to Othmer Hall via a skyway. This allows for an expanded complex that also includes Scott Engineering Center, the Link and Nebraska Hall.
“It will help educate generations of engineers who will lead teams, who will use their engineering principles to solve practical and important issues and challenges, engineer other facilities like this and engineer infrastructures that will really help change lives and save lives in our communities,” said Brian Hastings, president and CEO of the University of Nebraska Foundation. “Every project needs champions, and without our principal benefactors, this project wouldn’t be a reality, but without the 734 individuals and organizations who have given so far, we wouldn’t be here today.”
The new Kiewit Hall is part of a $170 million expansion and facilities transformation for the College of Engineering. Scott Engineering Center is being renovated, as well as the new, not yet completed Link building that will feature enhanced spaces for research labs, graduate students and academic departments.
A groundbreaking ceremony for the project was held in June 2021. The event, detailed on the school’s website, was held adjacent to the building site at 17th and Vine Streets at the College of Engineering in Othmer Hall.
“This is a big day for us, the University of Nebraska, for the state of Nebraska and for the field of engineering as we turn ground on the largest academic facilities project in the 152-year history of the university,” University of Nebraska-Lincoln Chancellor Ronnie Green stated to reporters during the ceremony.
“As someone who has spent my career at this university, I can’t tell you how gratifying it is to see that kind of investment in the College of Engineering,” said Dean Lance C. Pérez.
Other lead contributors recognized were the Suzanne & Walter Scott Foundation, Abel Foundation, Peter Kiewit Foundation, Robert B. Daugherty Foundation and Acklie Charitable Foundation.
UNL offers the only College of Engineering in the state, providing engineering education and leadership in technologybased economic development for the state and beyond. CEG

AEM Hosts Milwaukee Officials for Infrastructure Discussion
The Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM), in collaboration with Brookings Metro, convened public and private stakeholders for a discussion about how to leverage the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to make generational investments in our nation’s infrastructure and create economic opportunity for every American.
The event, titled Rethinking Milwaukee’s Infrastructure: The Challenges and Opportunities, is the second in a series of events that AEM will host across the country to highlight policy recommendations outlined in the Rebuild With Purpose: An Affirmative Vision for 21st Century American Infrastructure, a Brookings Institution report released in collaboration with AEM last year.
The event featured a fireside chat with Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson and Amy Liu of Brookings Metro, who discussed how the city is leveraging newly created federal grant programs to design infrastructure projects that will create greater economic opportunity in the area.
“Infrastructure investment has lagged across America, and in cities like Milwaukee there are pressing needs,” Johnson said. “We now have new resources at hand to start the work that’s needed. In my city, we are prioritizing the replacement of lead pipes that carry drinking water to individual residences. And with aging roadways, sewers and streetlighting, we have goals that new resources will help us meet. I appreciate the insight on this topic offered to us by our friends at the Association of Equipment Manufacturers.”
The fireside chat was followed by a panel discussion that featured Lafayette Crump, Milwaukee Department of City Development commissioner; Kathryn J. Dunn, Greater Milwaukee Foundation senior vice president and chief strategy officer; Kevin Shafer, Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District executive director; and Tim Sheehy, Metropolitan Milwaukee Association of Commerce president; and was moderated by Adie Tomer, Brookings Metro senior fellow. The group examined the challenges and opportunities facing communities such as Milwaukee and how the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act will help create a modern, sustainable and equitable infrastructure for all Americans.
“For years, the Association of Equipment Manufacturers has been leading the charge for a generational investment in our nation’s infrastructure. With the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act signed into law, we are partnering with state and local leaders to ensure that we leverage this historic legislation to rebuild roads and bridges, invest in water and wastewater systems, upgrade ports and inland waterways and expand broadband networks,” said Megan Tanel, AEM president.
“The United States is well-positioned to rebuild our nation’s infrastructure, but this cannot be accomplished without leaders who are committed to shepherding federal funds to the right infrastructure projects,” said Austin Ramirez, chief executive officer of Husco and chair of AEM’s Infrastructure Vision 2050 Task Force. “The Rebuild with Purpose report can serve as a road map for policymakers for how to leverage federal funding in ways that expand opportunities and improve the quality of life for Milwaukee and the state of Wisconsin.”
“We value AEM’s support of our Rebuild with Purpose report and the ensuing collaboration to bring a forward vision of infrastructure to communities across the country, including greater Milwaukee,” said Liu. “The important conversation with Mayor Johnson and local stakeholders revealed that leaders in greater Milwaukee are in vigorous agreement that clean water, infrastructure jobs and equitable investments are key to the region’s future economy and quality of life. Further, this is a region eager to partner with the state to realize this shared purpose.”

Volvo CE Delivers Its First Fossil-Free Steel Articulated Hauler to Customer
In the latest step on its path toward carbon neutrality, Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) became the first manufacturer to deliver a construction machine built using fossil-free steel to a customer.
This demonstrates the fast-tracking of innovation to real-world solutions as companies across the value chain come together to drive change, the company said.
The A30G articulated hauler built using fossil-free steel was handed over by Volvo CE President Melker Jernberg to long-standing customer NCC on June 1, 2022, at a ceremony hosted by LeadIt — the Leadership Group for Industry Transition — in conjunction with the United Nations environmental meeting Stockholm +50. It was attended by John Kerry, US Special Presidential Envoy to Climate and Annika Strandhäll, Swedish Minister for Climate.
The move comes just nine months after the company unveiled the world’s first vehicle concept using fossil-free steel, as part of the testing of the implementation in an ordinary production setup.
While commercial introduction is expected to be gradual with selected customers, this speedy first handover is an important milestone in the group’s ambition to drive industry transformation towards global climate goals.
The A30G is produced at Volvo CE’s Braås facility in Sweden, using the existing manufacturing process, with fossil-free steel from Swedish steel company SSAB.
Jernberg said, “We are sure that to succeed in decarbonizing the construction industry, actors in the value chain will need to collaborate and act. Thanks to our strong partnerships with other driven and forward-thinking companies, we are now able to lead the change towards fossil-free construction and be the first to deliver a machine built using fossil-free steel to a customer. Turning commitments into actions is key to building the world we want to live in.”
Tomas Carlsson, CEO and president of NCC, said, “NCC has a firm commitment to contribute to sustainable development. We are working determinedly and systematically to reach that target, which includes selecting machines that live up to our high demands. As demonstrated in this great example, it takes strong and proactive partnerships between several players to make the sustainable shift possible.”
As part of its Science-Based Targets commitment, Volvo CE is set to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040. Alongside the electrification of its machines, the company recognizes the importance of reducing its carbon footprint across its entire value chain. This includes the raw materials used in its products, of which steel is a major component. The production using fossil-free steel in Volvo CE’s machines and components will be gradual and depend on aspects such as steel availability.

Aaron O’Shaughnessy
Connect Work Tools announced that Aaron O’Shaughnessy has joined the Connect Work Tools team as regional business manager — Midwest.
“I am super excited to join the Connect Work Tool team,” said O’Shaughnessy. “I started my career with a different division of Exodus, but the essence is the same: do the right thing and have a good time doing it. It’s been a smooth process transitioning over to Connect Work Tools, and it’s been a blast meeting our customers and learning about our breakers and demolition tools. I’ve got a great team around me, and I’m excited to absorb everything I can about our products and the industries they serve, so I can become a real resource for our end customers and dealer partners.”
O’Shaughnessy was brought on to Exodus as inside sales specialist — BladeCore. There he immersed himself in all aspects of the business, including customer service, order entry and even packaging and shipping blades.
“I am thrilled to add Aaron to the sales team in the Midwest. The work ethic Aaron demonstrated and his ability to learn fast in his position at BladeCore made him an easy choice to move into outside sales,” said Geordie Stewart, director of sales. “He is genuine, a hard worker and is willing to go the extra mile to get the job done. He has all the skills you can’t teach, and customers will really appreciate what he has to offer.”
Connect Work Tools, located in Cleburne, Texas, is a division of Exodus Global, a privately owned company. Founded in 2015, Connect Work Tools offers premium attachments — hydraulic breakers, compactors, rotating grapples and pulverizers for the construction, demolition, recycling and mining industries.
Additionally, Connect Work Tools offers rebuild services and reconditioned equipment.
Exodus Global’s additional divisions include ShearCore, BladeCore and OilQuick Americas.
