Butler MachineryAssociates Compete for ‘Parts Wars’Title

Hosting competition-style events for associates is not new to Butler Machinery. For many years, Butler has participated in Tech Wars, a skills and knowledgebasedcompetitionforservicetechnicians.The success and growth of that program was seen throughout the company, and it wasn’t long afterthatpartsassociateswantedin on the action and expressed interestinacompetitionoftheirown— Parts Wars.

The competition showcases two divisions — construction and agriculture. Each division has four hands-on skills scenarios.

A team of Butler Machinery technical communicators, product support managers and various departments worked to develop simulated skills and challenges replicating on-the-job scenarios such as operating forklifts, parts countersellingskills,hosebuilding and core inspections. “Using realworld situations, Parts Wars builds confidence by challenging them to showcasetheirabilitiesunderpressure,” said Ben Wasserburger, executive director of service of Butler.

Parts Wars participants also had an opportunity to work together in a few team-building exercises. Each group was tasked to build the strongest spaghetti bridge and create a container that would protect an egg from a 20-ft. drop. The extra activities are an invaluable experience for associates to connect and work together towards a common goal.

“One of Butler’s values is ‘Our Team.’Parts Wars is a great example of that value in action. The Parts Wars event is an opportunity for our associates to highlight their expertise, skills and abilities in a fun and challenging environment,” said Mike Sanden, training and development director of Butler.

“It’s another way that Butler highlights the importance of our values in action.”

Parts Wars isn’t about the score. In fact, the scores are never revealed, just the winners.

“I think it truly is a celebration of self, and it’s an opportunity to create relationships across Butler,” saidTwylah Blotsky, president and dealer principal of Butler Machinery.

Parts Wars is meant to be a fun event where team members can be challenged, pushed out of their comfort zone and highlight their dedication and knowledge.

“Aftermarket parts support is the key differentiator of Butler Machinery Company,” said Wasserburger. “Our parts teams work around the clock, ensuring our customers have the right parts attherighttime,whichiscriticalto

their success. This event instills confidence to take back what they have learned to the workplace to better serve our customers with best-in-class support.”

Butler is currently the only CaterpillardealerputtingonaParts Wars competition in 2023. In future years, it’s hoped to have other dealerships participate in Parts Wars, creating a third round of competition and bringing all

dealer finalists together. Congratulations to the Butler Parts Wars Winners:

First — Brent Nelson

ASV Celebrates 40thAnniversary With Event at Grand Rapids, Minn., Facility

Decarbonization Efforts...

Skanska USA,AGC

Create Task Force to Reduce Emissions in ConstructionIndustry

SkanskaUSA,oneoftheworld’slargestdevelopmentand construction companies, announced it has co-created the newly formed Associated General Contractors of America (AGC) Task Force on Decarbonization and Carbon Reporting, to address the challenges around reporting and reducing carbon emissions in the construction industry.

ASV, an industry-leading brand of all-pur pose and all-season compact track loaders andskidsteers,celebrates40yearsofinnova tive product design this year for its anniver sary.

The pioneer in the compact track loader market celebrated the occasion with an open houseeventatitsGrandRapids,Minn.,facil ity earlier in June. The event featured a full lineup of legacy and new ASV models, tours of the factory, food and refreshments and various family activities and give aways.

“Talk to any of our longtime staff — and there are many — and you’ll find that the samepassionfortheproductsexistsnowasit did on day one,” saidTate Johnson, president of the Yanmar Compact Equipment North

America, which encompasses the ASV brand.

“This anniversary and today’s continually innovative ASV products are proof that the brand’s entrepreneurial spirit lives on.” ASV’s drive for innovation has been clear since its founding in 1983.Two forerunners in the early snowmobile industry started the business, developing a pickup-sized rubber-tracked vehicle called the Track Truck as ASV’s first product. The equipment was built for snowmobile trail grooming and was meant for traveling over adverse ground conditions. However, it didn’t take long for the manufacturer to begin using its experience to develop the first Posi-Track rubber tracked compact track loader in 1990.

The Posi-Track loaders’ undercarriages improved quickly, with innovations like a single-rail design, metal-face sealed wheels and internal drive-sprockets. The design provides exceptional traction on soft, wet, slippery, rough or hilly terrain, the company said.

The brand grew in size and reputation over the years, becoming known for one-of-a-kind compact equipment products built to handle all sorts of conditions and locations — from residential backyards to rugged forestry work.

Over the coming year, the Task Force will help standardize carbon reporting by developing an industry guidebook and educational resources on decarbonization best practices. The Task Force is part of AGC’s climate change initiative, which aims to shape climate change policies that impact the construction industry, while reducing the industry’s environmental impact.

Other founding members include Clark, DPR and Ryan Companies, with additional members now including Granite, Kiewit, Mortenson and Turner.

“The AGC Task Force unites some of the biggest construction companies to support the industry’s decarbonization efforts,” said Myrrh Caplan, national vice president of sustainability at Skanska USA Building and chair of the AGCTaskForceonDecarbonizationandCarbonReporting.

“Thecommitteewilldevelopaguidebooktohelpcontractors understand how to calculate and report emissions, and how to set actionable goals as they play an instrumental role in addressing climate change. We look forward to being part ofaprocessthatreducestheindustry’senvironmentalimpact and creates more resilient communities.”

The construction industry and the built environment are responsible for nearly 40 percent of global carbon emissions that impact climate change. Contractors are increasingly exploring efforts that reduce their carbon footprint including changes in their operations, adoption of new policies and investments in new technologies. Skanska understands the construction industry’s responsibility to take action and has consistently led industry decarbonization and sustainability efforts.

Globally, Skanska aims to achieve net-zero carbon emissions along its entire value chain by 2045, with a 70 percent reduction in controlled emissions by 2030. From 2015 to 2022, Skanska achieved a 55 percent reduction of carbon emissions from its own operations (scope 1 and 2). In 2019, Skanska alongside the Carbon Leadership Forum and other partners, helped create the Embodied Carbon in Construction Calculator (EC3 Tool), to calculate and evaluate the embodied carbon within a wide array of building materials. The partnership made the tool “open-source” to democratize data and provide transparency as companies and governments aim to achieve their carbon reduction goals. 

Five Reasons Construction Job SitesAre Going Electric

Electrification of construction machinery is hardly a new concept. For years, electric equipment has been commonly seen in a variety of applications, from demolition and mining to aerial lift and industrial work.

Now, however, electric equipment is becoming increasingly prevalent on and around job sites. Its potential is evident. Its benefits are clear. Its long-term place in the industry is no longer up for debate.And, as electric vehicles continue to be more widely adopted by consumers, all that’s left to do is examine — and try to accurately determine —how the construction industry should prepare for the technology to become fully mainstream in the not-too-distant future.

“Ifyougooutaboutthreeyears,therewill be approximately 700 electric vehicles roadside, and that’s not even getting into construction and agriculture,” said David Knight, CEO of Terbine, a provider of technology for the seamless exchanging of IoT data between the mobility and energy sectors, who spoke on how the construction industry should prepare for the widespread adoption of electric vehicles in the not-too-

distant future at ConExpo-Con/AGG 2023.

According to Knight, there are five main reasonswhyequipmentendusersintheconstruction industry are strongly considering investing (or already have invested) in electric machinery. They are:

1.Loweroperatingcosts —The savings on diesel costs, alone, are significant. Most OEMs cite a range of four to eight hours of runtime for “average” use on electric compact equipment, with an eight-hour overnight charge. And while it’s quick and easytocompareruntimesonafullycharged

electric machine with a full tank on diesel units, there’s no idle on an electricmachine.Therefore,anoperatorcangetadayormoreofproductive work out of it because they’re typically not running a machine for eight continuous hours a day.

2. Lower maintenance costs — Reciprocating engines possess many friction-generating parts, which fail. The friction, and the frictional components and amount of heat generated with an engine running, is really what contributes to parts being replaced and maintained.

3. Federal and state tax credits —Incentivescanoffersavingsinthe tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, across a single fleet. Because they change all the time, it’s important for organizations to stay up to date regarding what’s available, both regionally and nationally.

4. Carbon credits and offsets — Carbon credits, also known as carbon allowances, work like permission slips for emissions. When a company buys a carbon credit, usually from the government, they gain permission to generate one ton of CO2 emissions. When one company removes a unit of carbonfromtheatmosphereaspartoftheirnor-

mal business activity, they can generate a carbonoffset.Othercompaniescanthenpurchase that carbon offset to reduce their own carbon footprint.

5. ESG goals — Many organizations are setting and working toward Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) goals, and it’s a trend that’s only expected to become more common with time. Without goals and corresponding policies, organizations face ESG risk, which includes loss of investors,adamagedreputationandfinesfor regulatory noncompliance.

There is every reason to believe the electricvehiclesandelectricequipmentwillcontinuetodevelopandimproveovertime,said Knight, thus making a greater level of adoption even more likely in the very near future.

According to theTerbine CEO, the architectures of electric vehicles are going to even higher voltages. The higher the voltage, he explained, the less current is needed for a given amount of wattage. That also means less heat.And, while voltages are very good now, they are expected to improve significantly in the coming years.

“They’re going to be really good in three to five years, and that’s going to allow for even faster and more efficient charging than ever before,” he added. 

While voltages are very good now, they are expected to improve significantly in the coming years.

Mecalac Compact Wheeled Excavators Available to NorthAmerican Market

Mecalac, a global designer, manufacturer and distributor of compact construction equipment for urban environments, offers its award-winning MWR Series of wheeled excavators to the NorthAmerican market.

Consisting of three models — 7MWR, 9MWR and 11MWR — the series features a range of benefits to help meettheneedsofoperationsintheconstruction,landscaping and forestry industries, as well as municipalities and utility construction.

TheMWRSeriesofwheeledexcavatorsarepurpose-built to allow for maximum maneuverability in tight working areas, offering the flexibility and versatility of a skid steer or compact track loader in one machine and delivering higher speed and mobility than tracked excavators.

“Traditionally,wheeledexcavatorshaveenjoyedlesspopularityinNorthAmericabecausetheopenspacesandgreater distances to travel favored larger equipment. That is no longer the case. As supply chain challenges continue and trucking costs increase, hauling equipment is becoming more expensive. Compounding that is the fact that job sites are getting smaller and labor shortages plague nearly every industry and business. These trends make it easy to recognize that the North American market needs compact equipment and the specific advantages that the wheeled excavator offers,” said Peter Bigwood, general manager of Mecalac NorthAmerica.

“Mecalac has more than 40 years of experience building and fine tuning our wheeled excavators; and we believe the North American market is ready for this new approach to work.”

Each of the three models in the MWR series offers speed inacompactfootprint.Thesmallestofthethree,the7MWR, offersvariablespeedbetween0and19mph.Twoofthelarger models, the 9MWR and 11MWR, provide contractors standard travel speeds between 0 and 12 mph with an option for enhanced speed up to 22 mph on the 9MWR and up to 19 mph on the 11MWR. The speed in combination with the versatility of these machines provide operations with substantialbenefitsinproductivityandefficiencybysignificantly reducing travel time on the job site and between jobs.

TheMWRseriesmachineshaveacenterof gravity that is 20 percent lower than other models while still maintaining a high ground clearance. The unique combination ensures exceptional stability even while operating offroad and on slopes and simultaneously reducestheriskofundercarriagedamagefrom obstaclesontheground,accordingtothemanufacturer.

With four-wheel steering, the MWR series machines are maneuverable and feature a turn radius 2.5 times more compact than a traditional wheeled excavator.

Although compact, the MWR series does not sacrifice on power. A 75-hp (55.4-kW) engine is standard on each model. Lifting capacity ratio is best in class, with the smallest model able to lift 3 metric tons at 10 ft. (3 m) through 360 degrees.

Using Mecalac’s hydraulic quick coupler,

transitions between attachments such as buckets or forks can be made in under a minute from inside the cab. Equipped with a set of forks, the MWR machines can replace a telescopic handler or rough terrain forklift and another operator. TheMecalacboomsystemevenallowsforunloadingpallets below grade.

“We’re confident that the MWRs will be a game-changer for contractors and operators in North America for years to come,” Bigwood said.

“By combining a compact footprint with a balanced designthatispowerful,versatileanduser-friendly,theMWR Series achieves higher levels of productivity than ever before, making it a valuable addition to any job site. There are wheeled excavators, and there are Mecalac MWR wheeled excavators.”

All MWR models in North America come standard with MyMecalac, the company’s fleet management technology. The onboard telematics system delivers everything from high-level summaries to specific machine details, including maintenance, inspection and damage notifications, to empower fleet managers to boost efficiency and machine uptime.

FergusonEquipmentandTrailerSales Fills Need With Its New High Lift Kit

“See a need, fill a need,” said Craig Ferguson, owner of Ferguson Equipment and Trailer Sales in Dover, Minn.

Craig Ferguson has been in business for 36 years and started out in a small shop with just a torch, grinder, and stick welder. Ferguson specializes in good quality used wheel loaders and attachments and if the company doesn’t have what a customers is looking for, there’s agoodchanceitcanfindit,accordingto Ferguson.

When a customer purchased a lowhour John Deere 444K wheel loader, he wanted to know if Ferguson could find the same machine in a high-lift model, whichcanbeextremelyhardtofindand can command top dollar for a quality used machine.

Ferguson told the customer it would be faster to fabricate a high lift conversion kit for the 444K he had on his lot, and that’s how the C.F. High Lift Kit was born. After securing a patent, Ferguson started a new division and orders are coming in, even from as far away as Uruguay.

“We plan on continuing to expand this part of our business, adding more models all the time,” said Ferguson. “The first one we fabricated for the John Deere 444K is still in use today and working great. Lead times are very reasonable, andwecandocustomwork,aswell.Wecanbuildahighlift kit for any loader we sell.”

The bolt-on C.F. High Lift Kit provides additional reach and is designed to give high lift capabilities to a standard loader,adding12in.to16in.ofextrareachdependingonthe machine. Installation only takes approximately a half-hour and requires no cutting or welding, and the high lift kit attaches to a machine with just a few bolts, according to the company.

The C.F. High Lift Kits include the following:

ï Two boom brackets custom fit to the machine;

ï One extended Z-bar dog bone;

ï Two hardened bolts with bushings for boom arms and dog bone; and

ï Six hardened ¾-in. bolts for side plates.

Ferguson Equipment and Trailer Sales is currently building C.F. High Lift Kits for the following models: Deere 444 H/J/K/L/P, Brazil G; Deere 524 H/J/K/L/P, Brazil G; Deere 544 H/J/K/L/P, Brazil G; Deere 624 H/J/K/L/P, Brazil G; Deere644H/J/K/L/P,BrazilG;Case621D/E/F/G;Case721 D/E/F/G; and New Holland 170-B

The company reported that High Lift Kits for John Deere tool carrier models will be available soon.

The bolt-on C.F. High Lift Kit provides additional reach and is designed to give high lift capabilities to a standard loader.

Installation only takes approximately a half-hour and requires no cutting or welding.

The kit adds approximately 12 in. of additional lift height to most machines.

BRIDGE from page 1

The structure carries U.S. Highways 14 and 83, along with S.D. Highway 34, and is a crossing point over the Missouri River between Fort Pierre and Pierre.

“Residents and visitors to Pierre and Fort Pierre use the bridge, often several times a dayforwork;totravelbetweenthetwocommunities; to transport agricultural and other products; for tourism and recreation; and to travel across the state of South Dakota,” said VanDeWiele.

In 2016, SDDOT performed a bridge replacementstudy,withintentionsofgathering more information to justify a structure replacement. After years of studying and planning, SDDOT decided to move forward with building a new bridge.

“Between Pierre and Fort Pierre, the MissouriRiverisahalfmiletoamilewide,” saidVanDeWiele.“Thetwotownsremained seasonally isolated until the railroad bridge, constructed in 1907, and the first highway bridge, constructed in 1926, joined the two towns. Prior to the bridges, methods of crossing the river depended on the season andthedepthofthewaterthatvariedbyseason. In November or December, the river would freeze over to sufficient depth to create an ice bridge. When the ice broke up in March orApril, various boats, ranging from rowboats to steam ferry boats, were used to move people, livestock and products across the river from 1876 until 1926.”

Decades later, the existing bridge was constructed as a four-lane structure built from steel girders with a steel deck. The bridge has a Jersey-style center divider and a sidewalk on the downstream side. The bridge features a vertical curve to achieve the required clearance above the river. In 2002, the standing bridge was dedicated to World War II hero Lt. Cmdr. John C. Waldon.

Phase 1 construction on the Pierre-Fort Pierre Bridge project officially began in

November 2020. Crews have been working on the replacement bridge throughout the winter, in extremely frigid weather and on weekends, when necessary.

According to VanDeWiele, completing theunderwatersubstructureworkeliminated dealing with variable water depths and having to schedule work accordingly. Roadway approach work will carry through the summer of 2023.

This spring, commuters experienced the installation of two-way traffic in the eastbound lanes from the U.S. Highway 14/83 junction in Fort Pierre to Charles Street in Pierre. Closure of the westbound lanes is necessary for construction of the new bridge superstructure, berms, concrete paving and intersection work.

see BRIDGE page 98

VolvoUnveilsCompactAssistPackagesforSoilCompactors

Two entry-level packages for Volvo Construction Equipment’s (Volvo CE) intelligent compaction system Compact Assist have now been introduced to best match the varied demands of its customers on its line of Volvo soil compactors.

Designed for customers who need some of the existing system’s functionality — but not all of them — the new ‘Lite’ and ‘Start’ packages unlock varying degrees of access to the core functions of Pass Mapping and Compaction Measurement Value (CMV) Mapping, all powered by the 10 in. Volvo Co-Pilot touchscreen. With these tailored solutions, customers can now more easily unlock the benefits of intelligent compaction, receiving only the information that is most useful to them and in turn achieving optimum compaction results.

Packages to Fit Your Needs

Customers can now choose from three packages from Volvo CE’s suite of CompactAssist tools — whether they are looking for simple compaction measurements right through to complete tracking of both the coverage and compaction of the material — ensuring the most cost-effective and relevant solution, specific to their needs.

ï Lite — The first of the two new bundles, this is the perfect optionforthosetakingthefirststepstowardsimprovingthequality of their compaction work. It integrates a simple compaction gauge and rear-view camera within the Volvo Co-Pilot monitor, allowing see VOLVO page 72

The packages are designed for customers to choose their preferred levels of functionality.

The Lite package is practical for those taking the first steps in Compact Assist.

Compact Assist enables the creation of reports on the finished job.

The Start package offers increased functionality.

Intelligent Compaction Made Simple

Since its launch, Volvo CE’s

Compact Assist has been an industry standard when it comes to intelligent compaction tools. Available on the company’s SD75B and SD115B soil compactors in North America, Europe and other selected International markets — and the larger SD135B and SD160B soil compactors available onlyinEuropeandotherselectedinternationalmarkets—itfacilitatesamore successfulcompactionprocess,helping operators understand where the ground has been adequately compacted and wheremoreattentionisneeded–information that is especially useful when working on large job sites.

One of its essential features is Pass Mapping, where customers can visualize the whole job and keep track of where they have compacted, making it easy to see where work is still required and in turn saving time and money.

Another key tool is CMV mapping, whereby customers are given a completeimageoftheloadbearingstrength of the jobsite allowing them to identify

a soil mixture that is too wet, for example, or any buried infrastructure. This helps operators to identify areas which require additional compaction or further investigation.

With these new more-tailored packages, customers can better integrate the Compact Assist solution into the dayto-day work of their Volvo Soil Compactors, all the while assured of the same great compaction results.

Whilethesepackageshavebeencreated for Volvo Soil Compactors, Compact Assist also is available for Volvo asphalt compactors, including Pass Mapping, Temperature Mapping, as well as Density Mapping and Stiffness (CMV) Mapping tools.

These packages are available in select North American, European and international markets.

Cratos Offers Its Solution to Help Combat Labor Issues

Labor shortages remain a primary concern in the construction industry, including demolition contractors. According to the Associated General Contractors of America’s (AGC) 2023 Construction Outlook National Survey, supply chain issues, rising costs and labor shortages rank among the top concerns business owners are facing in 2023. All three problems, when combined, can result in project delays, leading to a decrease in revenue.

This forces business owners to look for solutions to combat the issue head on, and rightly so — decreases in revenue aren’t minor inconveniences; they can put an end to a business if these problems aren’t addressed quickly. Solutions for labor shortages can include making job positions more appealing, or according to the AGC survey, offering higher pay rates for the positions they seek to fill.

There is another option the demolition industry can take that not only benefits their businesses in the short term but expands their businesses success over the long term, according to Cratos Equipment.

Battery-Powered Equipment Helps Solve Labor Shortage

How can buying more machines help you? It’s simple, according to Cratos Equipment. One machine does the work of three to five laborers. With the right equipment, says Cratos, contractors can have all

the labor they need, which leads to having the capability of accepting contracts over other contractors who are not equipped efficiently to surmount labor shortages, and even complete projects more quickly.This, in turn, leads to being able to take on more work.

And when labor shortages are no longer an issue, contractors now have the equipment that amplifies the work that an increased workforce can accomplish. In every way, introducing battery powered equipment, such as the 100ECO battery-powered skid-steer, is a massive benefit to

a contractor’s demolition arsenal, according to Cratos Equipment.

Is It Safe to Use Skid Steers Indoors?

Whentheyare100percentbattery-powered,theyareperfectly safe, according to Cratos Equipment. The company added that its mini-excavator also can be safely operated indoors to greatly increase productivity, all while not exposing laborers to harmful toxins. Battery-powered means no emissions, which is highly important when doing interior demolition jobs. Cratos said if battery-powered equipment is not used for those jobs sites, contractors either need to spend time preparing ventilation systems to keep workers safe or hire even more workers.

How Much Maintenance Does Battery-Powered Equipment Need?

According to Cratos Equipment, “next to nomaintenanceisneededawithbattery-powered equipment.

“Simply charge your machine and get to work,” the company said. “We can’t say no maintenance will ever be needed — eventually, you’re going to need to replace a part here and there — but in comparison to gas- or diesel-powered machines, our machines are a cost/time saver in every way.”

CaterpillarAdds New Industrial Power Units to Help OEMs

Caterpillar has announced the introduction of two new high-efficiency industrial diesel power units (IPUs) that enable original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to minimize engineering and assembly costs forconstruction,material-handlingandother off-highway applications in the 74 to 134 hp power range while meeting the emissions standards of higher regulated markets.

Now available from Cat dealers in North America, Cat C2.8 and Cat 3.6 IPUs are equipped with factory-installed ECM sensors, radiators, cooling packs, filtration, control systems and aftertreatment hardware.

These new IPUs meet the emissions standardsofEUStageV,U.S.EPATierIVFinal, China Non-road IV, Korea Stage V and Japan 2014. With the addition of these power solutions, Caterpillar currently offers IPUsfrom48to950hpaddressingtheemissions standards of higher regulated markets.

“OEMs with restricted engineering resources can shorten their design and assembly timelines with Cat IPUs,” said Steve Ferguson, senior vice president Caterpillar Industrial Power Systems. “These new drop-in packages offer design flexibility, power density, emissions compliance and field-proven durability in an integrated package that can help off-highway

manufacturers accelerate their speed to market.”

Advanced Engineering, Outstanding Performance

The flexible and innovative designs of the newCatC2.8andCat3.6IPUsoffernumerous features to address the demands of offhighway equipment owners.

They feature a common rail direct-injec tion design with a turbocharged C2.8 or tur bocharged aftercooled C3.6 air system.

The ECM and aftertreatment hardware are mounted on the IPU and, along with the fuel filter, are validated to perform in harsh work environments. A new wiring har ness also has been developed to allow for a simple hookup to machine wiring.

For fast installation, an optional engine control panel for engine mon itoringandspeedcontrolalsoisavailable.

To provide minimal downtime for regeneration, each IPU is equipped with an on-engine diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) and diesel particulatefilter(DPF),whiletheCatC3.6 also has selective catalytic reduction (SCR).

For operations in challenging

work conditions, the IPUs are available with heavy-duty cooling packs incorporating a pusher fan and erosion screen, as well as heavy-duty fuel filters with increased dirtholding capacities.

Cat IPUs enable customers to use renewable liquid fuels such as 100 percent hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) and are

integrated suite of robust software and hardware solutions supplying the insight equipment owners need to make decisions on the fly, secure the health of their equipment and minimize nonproductive time.

All Cat power solutions are fully supported by the global Cat dealer network, which offers genuine Cat parts and services packaged in Customer Value Agreements (CVAs). In addition, dealer technicians are trained to provide a comprehensive range of maintenance and services that help customers maximize the performance and optimize the total cost of ownership of Cat industrial engines.

New Cat C2.8 and Cat 3.6 industrial diesel power units (IPUs) help off-highway OEMs minimize engineering and assembly costs for applications in the 74-134 hp power range while meeting EU Stage V and Tier IV Final emissions standards.

Highway Equipment Company Celebrates Milestone

son, Thom Reynolds, at the helm. Thom Reynolds’ father, Dan Reynolds Jr., joined Highway Equipment Company in 1954, eventually taking over the reins to lead the dealership for more than 50 years. He continued to be actively involved with the company, stopping by to catch up with employees and offer insights and advice, right up until his

passing in August of last year.

From its beginnings as anAllis-Chalmers dealer working from a one-room building in the Pittsburgh area, the company has continuedtogrowbyfollowingitsthree-pointmission statement while keeping an eye on the road ahead to anticipate and address changing market dynamics and customer needs. The company has expanded beyond its Western Pennsylvania market with locations in New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio and

Virginia.

Highway Equipment Company offers equipment sales and rentals, along with parts and service geared to the construction, landscaping, demolition, oil and gas, mining, quarrying and industrial material-handling industries. Equipment lines the company represents at its various locations include Allmand Bros., Anaconda, Astec, Avant, Bell Trucks, Finn, Geith, Gradall, Hitachi, Hyundai, KATO, Kobelco, Koshin,

Kubota, New Holland, Orangeline, Rammer, Sakai, Screen Machine. In addition to its dealership locations, the company’s rental division, Machinery Rental Company (MRC) began operations established in 1951 and continues to thrive as sourceofrentalequipmentthroughoutwestern Pennsylvania.  CEG

ANNIVERSARY from page 12

In addition to the two-way traffic configuration, a 10-ft. width restriction will be in effect around the same time. Overwidth vehicles will be directed around the Oahe DamutilizingS.D.Highway1806, S.D. Highway 204 and S.D. Highway 1804. The width restriction will remain in place through theentire2023constructionseason.

VanDeWiele stressed that river traffic will remain open during the entire construction process.

“Recreation on the Missouri River is not only important to the residents of Pierre and Fort Pierre, but also people from across the state and tourists. Jensen Construction Company, the prime contractor, has developed a river traffic control plan to keep boats awayfromtheworkzoneandkeep the public and construction employees safe.

“Jensen Construction Company is a heavy highway contractor with a primary emphasis on bridge construction. Jensen has more than 100 years of experience ranging in services from bridge construction, railroads, wind tower foundation and marine work. Jensen has completed jobs throughout the central United States with work primarily inthepublicsector,andiscommitted to building quality, design-bidbuild projects that will exceed expectations and be done in a safe and efficient manner.”

There are, however, numerous challenges on the project.

“The river fluctuates up and down approximately four feet every day,” said VanDeWiele. “Also,thecurrentbridgeisonly10 feet away from construction of the new bridge, resulting in limited space to build the roadway on the ends of the bridge.”

Crews are currently focused on erecting the structural steel girders and constructing the Fort Pierreside abutment. Intersection work will soon start at the Highway 14/83 junction, as well as work on the mechanically stabilizing earth retaining walls for the Pierre-side abutment.

Twelve drilled shafts have already been constructed, and considerableworkhasbeenperformed on the Pierre-side abutment. In addition, six bridge bents have been built, which includes

columns, capitals, caps and pedestals.

An oversized steel casing, 13.5 ft.indiameter,wasinstalledfroma floating barge down through the water into the river bottom. A permanent 10-ft. diameter steel casing was installed inside the oversized casing and allowed for the concrete to be placed inside the 10-ft. casing, eliminating concerns about fresh concrete being spilled into the river. “The permanent casings were approximately 49 feet long,” said VanDeWiele. “They were installed into the bed of the river and turned intothe shale,creating a solid foundation.

“The ‘shaft’ was then excavated using an auger to drill deep intotheshalebelowtheriver’sbottom. This occurred in a two-step auguring process. Once the shaft wasexcavatedandcleanedout,the steel reinforcing rebar was inserted into the drilled shaft. These cages were fabricated offshore and taken by barge and lowered into the drilled shaft using a crane on the barge.Specialspacerswereusedto make sure the rebar didn’t come into contact with the bottom or sides of the drilled shaft to ensure the rebar was completely encased by the concrete.”

Upon final inspection of the

placement of the rebar, concrete was then placed in the drilled shaft.Aconcretepumpwasusedto fill the drilled shafts with concrete. Thiswascarriedoutbydisplacing the water in the drilled shaft with concrete using a tremie tube, a long pipe with a length greater than the depth of the drilled shaft.

“Oneendofthetremiewaslowered to the bottom of the drilled shaft, and concrete was placed through the use of the tremie tube,” said VanDeWiele. “Before starting to place the concrete, a foam ball was inserted into the top end of the tremie tube. Once the ball was in place, concrete was placed in the tremie tube abovetheball.Bytheweightofthe concrete on top of the ball, the ball was pushed down the tremie tube which acted as a squeegee pushing the water down and out the bottom of the tremie.

“When the ball exited the tremie’s bottom, the concrete then quicklybegantodisplacethewater in the bottom of the shaft in an upward direction. The tremie remained embedded into the concrete by five feet or more and was liftedatthesameratethatthe concrete came up in the shaft until the tremie reached the top of the permanent casing.”

“Following the placement of the six haunch girders over the bent seven cap, crews have been working on the six span girders at the Pierre-side abutment. The first two span girders for the Pierre abutment were lowered from atop the current bridge using cranes. The remaining four girders were lifted from a trailer on the ground of the Pierre side of the project. Once each span girder at the abutment was lined up with the corresponding haunch girder over the bent seven cap, they were connected using a splice plate and highstrength bolts.”

Numerous testing procedures were used throughout the process to guarantee the highest quality in materials and to ensure the installation was correct. Each drilled shaft contains approximately 365 cu. yds. of concrete and nearly 65,000 lbs. of steel. The concrete obtained a strength of more than 4,500 lbs. per square inch.

VanDeWiele noted that a large amountofrockpileshadtobebuilt during construction. More than 1,100 18-in. diameter aggregate columnswereplacedundereachof thebermfootprintstohelpstabilize the soils and prevent settlement where the berms meet the structure. In review of the project soils, SDDOT geotechnical engineers implemented the aggregate columns into the design.

Regarding girder erection for the new Pierre-Fort Pierre Bridge, VanDeWiele said it’s starting to stretch across the Missouri River.

“Work on the structural steel begantheweekofMarch13,2023.

The six haunch girders were trucked to Pierre/Fort Pierre and lowered from atop the current bridge utilizing two cranes on barges and one along the Pierreside shoreline. The girders were lowered onto the temporary ‘angel wing’ support on the bent seven cap, secured and braced.

As far as excavation, with only 10 ft. of space between the two bridges, the new roadway alignment merges into the old alignment. Therefore, excavation is complicated by the need to construct the new alignment immediately adjacent to the old. Construction sequencing is being done such that traffic can be maintained and funneled through the construction area.

Approximately 36,355 cu. yds. of unclassified excavation and 34,267 cu. yds. of contractor-furnished borrow will be moved duringconstruction.Heavyequipment at the site has included multiple cranes, barges and excavators. Main materials include concrete, reinforcing steel, steel pile, structural steel and rock.

It’s anticipated the new bridge will be open in the summer of 2024. Removing the existing bridge and plaza work under each abutment will then follow.

“In order to build a structure of this magnitude, there’s a tremendous amount of communication, meetings and logistical discussions between SDDOT, contractor, designers, industry suppliers and experts, along with local governments and the Federal Highway Administration,” said VanDeWiele, who added it’s rewarding to see work continuing on such an important project.

“Asthepublicisnowabletosee the work being completed above the water, there is a general excitementwatchingthisprojectcometo fruition. Every week brings a change. This will be further enhanced with 2023 grading, paving, signal work and bridge deck construction.”  CEG

Volvo Construction Equipment Unveils New Service Contracts

Launching in NorthAmerica at ConExpo, Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) is introducing a new portfolio of Volvo Service Contracts, helping customers to manage the repair and maintenance requirements of their Volvo machinery.

The new Gold, Silver and Blue Contracts arebuiltonexistingVolvoCustomerSupport Agreements to provide Connected Services, Extended Coverage, Preventive Maintenance options and more.

ï Volvo Construction Equipment has launched its new Volvo Service Contracts, available in three levels – Gold, Silver and Blue.

ïVolvoServiceContractscanprovidecustomers with total peace of mind when it comes to keeping their equipment working and performing at its best.

ï Customers can choose the right contract to suit their business requirements while being assured their machinery is looked after by Volvo experts.

The three contract levels range from a Blue Contract, which covers preventive maintenance and service, right up to a Gold Contract which includes complete machine repairs and preventive maintenance for max-

imum uptime.

For customers, a Volvo Service Contract means they can leave the maintenance of their equipment in the trusted hands of their Volvo dealer, enabling them to focus on their core business. What’s more, fixed maintenance and repair costs enable much more accurate budgeting and cost management.

José Rosales, head of repair and maintenance product management at Volvo Construction Equipment, said, “The best machines deserve the best back-up, and a Volvo Service Contract gives our customers total peace of mind. They can rest assured their machinery is being looked after by the experts — our Volvo-trained dealer network.

“The Gold, Silver and Blue Volvo Service Contracts provide our customers with three easy-to-understand options when it comes to choosingtherightpackagefortheirbusiness, according to their operational demands and their budget.AVolvo Service Contract is the smart choice for a business looking to take control of their costs and maintain the reliability and performance of their equipment to the very highest standard.”

investment, according to the association’s Transportation InvestmentAdvocacy Center (TIAC).

Arizona approved a $9 billion program focusing on state highways I-10, I-17 and Route 260, to improve safety on these stretches.

“The I-10 expansion is about both today’s traffic demands and what we anticipate in the decades ahead,” ADOT’s Garin Groff said. The state also will preserve 400 mi. of highway pavement rated in fair or poor condition, reported kold.com.

One of the most aggressive transportation packages was signed in Minnesota. It sets a new retail delivery fee, raises sales tax benefitting transit, increases the vehicle sales tax and indexes the gas tax to inflation. It is believed that the recently signed bills will produce $1.3 billion over the next two years, according toARTBA’s TIAC.

The center reported Florida loaded $4 billion into its project general fund, while Hawaiiinstitutedanewusagefeeforelectric vehicles.

Missouri combined almost $3 million in general fund revenue and bonds to renovate and expand I-70 across the state.

Indiana’s gas tax was extended for an additional three years, and new EV fees were instituted in Montana and Texas.

“This funding will … increase the quality of life for everyone in Arkansas,” the state department of transportation told Yahoo Finance. “[It] will provide much-needed funding for improvement and support of our state highway system.”

The agency said the funds will help take care of the existing system and will allow planning for future projects of economic benefit.

Where Money Is Coming From

In addition to IIJA earmarks, statesaregoingthroughsurplusgeneral funds, COVID relief and bonds to get projects off the ground.

Electric vehicle fees are among the most popular categories being explored by state legislatures, noted TIAC.

It tracked 35 bills, or 16 percent of 2023 transportation funding legislation introduced in the first five months of year.That marks a notable increase when compared with the eight bills tracked in the previous year, said the organization.

“The expenditure is influenced by readiness of state governments to move quickly,” Joseph Schofer, Northwestern University, told Yahoo. “Those that were better organized—hadtheirprioritieslinedupandproj-

ects ready to go — will show larger expenditures early.”

He said this large tranche of infrastructure money is making up for insufficient past investment especially in big and growing states.

Funding Floodgates Opened or Closed?

Many in Washington argue that a divided federalgovernmentwillputastoptobigpolicy measures such as infrastructure funding.

“It’s true that a divided Congress should mean a less productive and less ambitious legislative calendar,” wrote the Brookings Institute.“ButWashingtonhasonlybegunto execute all the work created by the previous

Congress — and nowhere is that more true than infrastructure policy.”

Brookings Institute Fellows write that for infrastructure, “the era of big government isn’t over — it’s just getting started.”

Most of the $1.25 trillion earmarked is still sitting in the federal government’s bank account, said the fellows. The funds are just waiting to strengthen and modernize the country’s economy and communities.

“Yet even at this early stage, governments and industry partners have little time to get their infrastructure plans in place,” wrote the Brookings staffers. “And achieving their goals won’t be easy — any one of multiple challengingeconomicconditionscouldlimit the number of projects that get completed.”

The organization observed that Pres. Biden has framed the next 10 years as America’s “infrastructure decade.”

“The chances of it being remembered that way may well be decided in the coming year, and there’s no time to lose,” according to Brookings.

The IIJA’s one-year anniversary rolled aroundlastfall,markingalowpointinterms of expected annual spending, said Brookings. Funding recipients have had to update capital spending plans to higher levels and write rules for the many new federal

programs.

“Still, the initial tranche of awards confirms just how much power Congress gave to the states and other major formula grant recipients.”

Measured by total funding awarded by federal agencies, formula programs received 92 percent of the IIJA’s first-year awards. Everystatesawmorethan80percentoftotal awards distributed through formula programs. And state governments are the primary beneficiaries of these formula programs.

Statesdirectlyreceivethesefundsthrough Federal Highway Administration programs and the EPA. State-controlled funding will grow as the $42.5 billion Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment (BEAD) formula funding starts to move, noted Brookings. The institute pointed out that that’s not to say competitive grants aren’t sizable or important.

“Major awards … are all significant projectsthatcaninfluenceeconomicactivityand environmental performance for decades to come.”

Competitive grants also are attractive for cities, counties and other local governments, said Brookings. These government entities

States have discretion on prioritizing the transportation safety and efficiency needs within their boundaries.

The bipartisan IIJA, which marked its one-year anniversary last fall, will be the impetus for new transportation projects for the next five years.

prize direct access to federal funding, without the need for allocations from their states.

“And there’s plenty more of the competitive money coming,” wrote Brookings staff members.

By October 2022, only 7 percent of competitivefundinghadbeenawarded. Brookings advised that if local practitioners want to maximize their chances to receive federal funds, they should partner with states.

“State officials control larger pots of funding and may not require detailed applicationstoaccessthatfunding,”the institute said. “By contrast, federal competitive programs are typically smaller and over-subscribed.”

State funding received by federal formula also can serve as matching funds when localities need to qualify for federal funds.

“With state capital budgets still adjusting to IIJA’s increased funding levels, now is the time for local leaders to build strong ties with their counterparts in state capitals.”

Industry Helping Push Funds Along

Theconstructionindustryitselfhasa big part to play in the transition from numbers on paper to boots on the ground. Contractor organizations, such asARTBA,arepullingachairuptothe funding table in praise of IIJA.

The association reported to Congress this past spring that more than 36,000 transportation improvement projects have moved forward.All this in the past 16 months as IIJA implementation continues, said Paula Hammond,ARTBAchair.

She acknowledged that inflation is a huge stumbling block for states trying to deliver on projects.

“Increased material costs and supply chain challenges have had a dilutive impact on the law’s investments,” Hammond said. “This situation would have been dramatically worse had Congress opted for another flat-funded extension of surface transportation programs. Our analysis shows there has been real market growth over the last year.”

Newandwell-meaningIIJArequirements related to expansion of Buy America are creating challenges of their own, added Hammond.

“If Buy America provisions are not pursued with stakeholder input and articulated clearly, it could have the opposite outcome and result in unnecessary project delays.”

She concluded that the initial data reveal IIJA’s highway, bridge and public transportation investments are working as intended.

“Many more benefits for the American people are still to come,” added Hammond.

Industry’s biggest headache remains attracting and keeping the massive labor force numbers needed to make state projects a reality.

“Government, infrastructure companies and workforce development must work together to expand the talent pipeline,” said Brookings.

The Biden administration has spent two years talking about the importance of workforce development within infrastructure industries.

“The reality is that Congress mostly left state and local infrastructure owners and operators to solve talent issues on their own.”

Brookings added that the list of workforce-related issues is long and difficult. It’s a two-fold challenge:

“First, they cannot find enough new talent — particularly younger workers, whomaynotknowthesecareersexist.”

This same pool of potential workers may lack flexible training pathways to

enter the field. Workers under the age of 24 represent only 11 percent of the country’s infrastructure workforce, the institute noted.

“Second, employers are struggling to hold onto existing talent,” said the Brookings researchers.

It’s projected that 1.7 million infrastructure workers will either retire or permanently leave the industry annually over the next decade.With 16.6 million infrastructure workers employed nationally, that means the entire workforce will essentially turn over in the next 10 years.

The result will be huge gaps in knowledge and retention — as well as potentially productivity.

“State and local leaders must shift from short-term, business-as-usual approaches,” said Brookings.

These leaders should instead “focus on longer-term strategies to enhance opportunities for workers and meet employer demands.”

That means planning and addressing workforce needs over time rather than throwing money at individual projects in the short term.

States must find ways to utilize the flexibility of federal funding and invest in worker training and retention.

Brookings believes these efforts also need to involve community outreach, support services and reskilling, to start. 

States are starting to release IIJA funds for much-needed infrastructure improvement projects across the country.
