The supply shortages hitting the cement and concrete sector are consistent with nationwide construction materials bottlenecks, but are more severe in certain parts of the country. The Portland CementAssociation (PCA) reports shortages in 18 states and attributes the issue to increases in global product demand and residential construction here at home.
Supply-chain issues have long plagued the construction industry, dating back to before the

Increased global demand is another reason for shortages in both cement and concrete nationwide.

Kentucky Transportation Cabinet photo American Bridge assembled the 700-ft. blue steel structure on four jumbo barges at the Paducah Riverport. The truss was floated 14 mi. upstream on the Ohio River to the construction site near the mouth of the Cumberland River in Livingston County.
With two of the four jacking towers removed, the flotilla that transported and placed a 700-ft. truss on the new $63 million U.S. 60 Cumberland River Bridge at Smithland, Ky., has moved away from the constructionsite.Thedepartureoftheflotilla allowed commercial towboat traffic and pleasure boat traffic to resume on the lower Cumberland River at navigation mile point 2.7
An American Bridge Company crew completed the removal of two of the four jacking towers that lifted the 5.1million-lb.truss into place about 90-ft. above the river. Lowering of towers on the upstream side of the new truss allowed the flotilla to move away from the construction site.
Completion of the work also allowed a lanerestrictiontoberemovedfromtheexisting U.S. 60 Cumberland River Bridge at Smithland — returning traffic to normal flow at the north edge of Smithland.
The truss will have to sit atop the piers for about a month before Jim Smith Contracting (JSC) can start placing a concrete deck on the structure. That work is expected to take about six months which would allow traffic to be moved to the new bridge in late spring of 2023.
American Bridge assembled the 700-ft. blue steel structure on four jumbo barges at the Paducah Riverport, then transported it upstream to the construction site.

Remaining work on the span includes:
• October through November 2022 — prep and start deck concrete pour on main span.
• April through May 2023 — U.S. 60 highway connections final tie-in; traffic moved to new bridge; and demolition of the old bridge.
• June throughAugust 2023 — final roadway driving surface and finish work.
Target completion date for all work is Dec. 1, 2023
The new bridge will have a 40-ft.-wide, two-lane deck with 12-ft. driving lanes and 8-ft. shoulders that will allow clearance for most farm equipment to cross without stopping oncoming traffic.
To aid river navigation on the Cumberland River, the new bridge will have no piers in the water during normal river conditions.

On Sept. 15, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg and local Detroit leaders announced that Michigan won a $105 million competitive federal grant to fund the I375 modernization project in Detroit. The project will replace the outdated I-375 freeway with an accessible boulevard, spurring economic development and linking adjacent areas of Detroit.
Getting this done will create good-paying jobs and support local small businesses, reconnecting prominent Black communities split apart by highway construction nearly 60 years ago. Earlier this year, Whitmer announced that the project was cleared to move forward after the Michigan Department ofTransportation (MDOT) concluded its environmental review process with extensive community input.
“Today, Michigan competed for and won funding for the I-375 modernization project to replace a mile of highway in Detroit with an accessible boulevard, expanding opportunities for local small businesses and reconnecting communities split apart nearly six decades ago,” said Whitmer. “In the 1950s, I-375 paved through two prosperous Black communities and displaced over 130,000 Michiganders and hundreds of businesses. While we cannot change the past, we can work together to build a more just future, and that’s exactly what today’s grant empowers us to do.We fought hard to secure this funding to create a corridor of economic opportunity in Detroit and build on the city’s growing economic momentum.”
“This stretch of I-375 cuts like a gash through the neighborhood, one of the many examples I have seen in communities across the country where a piece of infrastructure has become a barrier,” said Buttigieg. “With these funds, we’re now partnering with the state and the community to transform it into a road that will connect rather than divide.”
“For several years, my team has been working hard to reinvent this corridor with the goal of acknowledging mistakes of the past, reconnecting neighborhoods and spurring economic growth. This grant marks a significant move forward,” said Paul C. Ajegba, director of the Michigan Department of Transportation.
“I’m ready to fill in the ditch called I-375 and make it a beautiful, bustling boulevard, connecting the city of Detroit,” said Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan. “We all know the painful history of I-375, and the city’s planning staff is having ongoing conversations with the community on how we’re going to transform I-375 together.”
The new street-level boulevard will begin south of the I-75 interchange and continue to
Atwater Street. It will use the city’s existing road grid to ensure a smooth flow of traffic by facilitating additional connections to the Detroit riverfront, Eastern Market and Brush Park. It will be six lanes for most of its route, not counting turn lanes, and four lanes between Jefferson Avenue and Atwater Street.
In addition to new lanes for automobiles, there will be a two-way cycle track on the east side of the boulevard connecting the riverfront to the Montcalm Street extension and extend west to Brush Street and east to Gratiot Avenue, where it will connect with the Dequindre Cut bicycle path.
I-375 was built nearly 60 years ago. During construction, prominent Black neighborhoods Black Bottom and Paradise Valley were demolished to make way for the freeway. Constructed through a thriving Hasting Street, the new I375 opened in 1964 and created a barrier between the central business district in Detroit and the neighborhoods to the east, resulting in decades of underinvestment and a lack of opportunity for the predominantly Black communities on the other side of the freeway.
Several blocks of commercial and residential buildings also were levelled to make way for the freeway and urban renewal.
Although I-375 has a number of crossbridges, many properties declined due to reduced connectivity and especially because the community’s economic and residential base was substantially dislocated.
Today, almost three generations later, Michigan can eliminate this obstacle and provide easier access to better jobs, services
and quality of life to the residents of adjacent areas of persistent poverty. After nearly 60 years of use, I-375, the I-75/I-375 Interchange and associated bridges are nearing the end of their useful service life and require modernization.
that the transformation from a freeway to a boulevard was feasible. The conclusion of the PEL lead to an Environmental Assessment (EA) study to document the human and natural impacts associated with any proposed improvements. Guided by the study’s purpose and need, as well as extensive public outreach, a preferred alternative was developed and presented at both a virtual meeting and an in-person public hearing in January 2021.
MDOT and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) have documented and thoroughly reviewed the public comments submitted in the FONSI, which is the final National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) decision document and describes why the I-375 improvement project will not have any significant environmental impacts expected to occur upon implementation of the selected alternative design. NEPA is about people and places and balances engineering and transportation needs with social, economic and natural environmental factors.
MDOT added measures to be taken that acknowledge the impacts on residents and business owners in the former Black Bottom and Paradise Valley neighborhoods. These measures include:
• Implementing a process for the community to provide meaningful input that can be incorporated into the final design. The process will begin with the formation of a new community-based local advisory committee.
• Preparing and implementing a community enhancement plan, land use framework plan and aesthetic design guidelines with the new advisory committee.
• Using the value of the excess property to fund community priorities that will be identified during outreach efforts.
Since taking office through the end of 2022, Whitmer and Lt. Governor Gilchrist will have fixed, repaired or replaced more than 16,000 lane mi. of road and 1,200 bridges, supporting more than 89,000 jobs without raising taxes by a dime.
Extensive research was conducted starting in 2014 with a Planning and EnvironmentalLinkage(PEL)studytoidentify and evaluate alternatives for the corridor that would meet the transportation needs of all users in a cost-effective manner and improve connectivity. The PEL determined
These and future repairs are made possible by the Rebuilding Michigan plan, a fiveyear, $3.5 billion investment in highways and bridges, and the bipartisan Building Michigan Together Plan, the largest onetime investment in Michigan’s infrastructure in state history. These strategic investments in Michigan’s infrastructure ensure that future Michiganders will have safer roads and bridges to run errands, travel and strengthen the economy.

Bobcat has unveiled its most powerful loaders ever produced — the T86 compact track loader and S86 skid steer loader set new standards for productivity, attachment versatility, speed, control and weight-tohorsepower ratios.
Only Bobcat offers a compact loader that delivers three hydraulic flow options in one machine, setting a new industry benchmark in performance and attachment versatility. Also setting the T86 and S86 apart is Bobcat’s exclusive Premium Power Performance, a power management system that distributes power more efficiently on loaders equipped with high-flow and superflow hydraulics, according to the manufacturer.
“Bobcat has redefined best-in-class performance with the toughness, productivity and capabilities of the new T86 and S86 loaders,” said Jorge De Hoyos, Bobcat senior product manager of loaders. “We’re expanding our equipment lineup to support our customers’ most challenging jobs. With these compact loaders delivering more usable engine and hydraulic horsepower than ever before, we are empowering customers to accomplish even more.”
The T86 and S86 loaders offer more attachment versatility and productivity than ever before. Each component — including the engine, pumps and hydraulic system — is engineered to deliver maximum hydraulic
performance so operators can work quicker, lift more and take productivity to new heights.
The three hydraulic flow options are:
• Standard Flow (23.0 gpm, 3,500 psi) (Standard) — Select standard flow to operate attachments that require lower hydraulic horsepower.
• High Flow (36.6 gpm, 3,500 psi) (Optional) — This system provides additional hydraulic power to boost production of attachments like the Bobcat flail cutter, trencher, planer and stump grinder.
• Super Flow (42 gpm, 4,061 psi) (Optional) — Tackle the most demanding attachmentapplications,includingpavement milling and clearing land of trees and heavy brush, with attachments designed specifically for super-flow hydraulics.
Bobcat attachments are engineered to be fully integrated with the carrier’s electronics, hydraulics and geometry. This ensures the best possible work is achieved on every job site, every time, according to the manufacturer. And, with these 80-platform loaders, operators have more attachment versatility than ever before.
The T86 and S86 can power a wide variety of attachments including those specifically designed for super-flow hydraulics such as super-flow snowblowers, cold planers and forestry drum mulchers.
Several attachments require control of more than one function, and Bobcat’s small, seven-pin attachment harness activates power and fingertip control functions while eliminating the need for the mechanical relays used on other loaders. The T86 delivers more usable engine and hydraulic horsepower than ever before with 105 hp and 3,800 lbs. rated operating capacity.
Equipped with the latest Bobcat technology, the T86 and S86 loaders are among the industry’s most powerful, maneuverable and efficient loaders in their class size. Bobcat boosted the horsepower for the T86 and S86 while optimizing machine weight.The result is greater lifting capacity, impressive breakout forces and leading maneuverability for fast cycle times, the manufacturer said.
Bobcat tailored every component of these new loaders with the operator in mind. When jobsite demands are tougher and more complex, the Bobcat T86 and S86 perform as true worksite champions. Compatible with high-power attachments, along with multi-tasking functions and heavier loads in fewer cycles, these loaders combine speed and productivity like never before. In turn, operators can achieve greater lifting capacity and machine speed for the most efficient work cycles yet.
Bobcat’s T86 and S86 feature Premium Power Performance, a power management system that distributes power more efficiently on loaders equipped with high-flow and super-flow hydraulics, according to the manufacturer. Bobcat boosted the horsepower for the T86 and S86 while optimizing machine weight.Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) has seen a buzz of construction projects recently. The airport continues to make waves in the area with an annual economic impact of $6.8 billion. CVG welcomed more than nine million passengers in 2019. It is the seventh busiest cargo airport in North America.
Airport planners and workers completed the rehabilitation of runway 9/27 last year with continuing work on adjacent taxiways in 2022. This runway is critical for cargo operations and is used extensively for nighttime operations. Due to impressive planning and execution, plus on-time availability of funding through the FAA, the fix was accomplished in one year rather than two. Runway 9/27 is one of four runways at CVG. Rehabilitation work included new asphalt, concrete and lighting.
“By completing the project in a single season, rather than two, it minimizes impact to nearby communities, cargo operations and the overall effectiveness at the airport,” said Angel Ramos, vice president of planning and development.
The runway needed rehabilitation after some 30 years of service and bearing the brunt of many takeoffs and landing.
“The runway was concrete with an asphalt overlay,” said Ramos. “Our team milled 6 inches of asphalt and removed 18-inch panels of concrete. We replaced the joints, P-501 concrete and P-401 asphalt, which is the standard required by the FAA.”
The runway is heavily used for both passenger and cargo traffic. Cargo traffic grew during COVID.
Theairporthandlescargorelatedto e-commerce activity, so planners found it necessary to make the runway active as soon as possible. That meant long days for workers.
“Our team had to work 24 hours a day for two weeks straight during September of last year,” said Ramos. “At one section the runway intersects with another runway. So, our team had to get that section completed as quickly as possible.”
Workers were able to crush the old runway materials on site and use them in the rebuild.That meant fewer truck trips to bring in new material. That also meant less carbon emissions and saved time.
Another time saver was the use of an oversize milling machine, capable of milling a 20-ft.-wide swath of pavement.
“If we mill faster, we can pave faster,” said Ramos. “We were able to use a lot of activities to speed up
the process.”
Ramos sees lots of improvements in the new surface.
“The runway is smoother, with no cracks or bumps. And it’s back to daily service.”
A high-speed job like this requires excellent cooperation between the airport and contractors.
“One of the highlights for me was the chance to work with people who could problem solve and
make things happen in a hurry,” he said. “In construction there are always unexpected issues that come up. Our team reacted well and dealt with challenges in the right way.”
The project came in at just under $70 million and included many savings through recycling.
• 14,000 tons of millings from the old runway were used in the new pavement

• 36,000 tons of concrete was crushed and recycled for use as a subbase
• 60,000 tons of excavated soil and 65,000 tons of topsoil were reused on site
The project required 120,000 tons of asphalt and 10,000 cu. yds. of concrete.
Some 170,000 cu. yds. of dirt was excavated on the project.
In addition to paving, the rehabilitation of the runway included installing more than 2,400 lights and nearly 200 illuminated signs. The lighting installation comprised fully one third of the project. The new LED lights are more energy efficient, producing 350 fewer metric tons of carbon dioxide per year.
The LED lights have a life expectancy of approximately 10 years, rather than a few months with the former lights.
Samantha Kleem, vice president of operations at The Harper Company, highlighted the cooperation between her team and Eaton Asphalt, who performed half the milling and the asphalt paving. Bansal Construction was another key partner, handling the electrical installation.
“The level of coordination required in this project was intense,” she said. “Sometimes one of us would complete a phase of the work and a partner would be on the runway within minutes. Frankly, we are all relieved to have met the deadlines. It was a great sense of accomplishment for our team,
for the airport and for the engineering firms.”
For 18 days, the construction teams were on the hot seat as they worked on an area where two runways intersected. Two of the four runways at CVG were out of commission.
“This timing was very important as we needed to get everything done by mid-October when the e-commerce activities start ramping up for cargo operations,” said Kleem. “During that window of time our contractor had to mill and resurface all the asphalt paving, complete electrical and drainage operations. We also had to rebuild the shoulders. Not only did we have to get the work done, but we had see AIRPORT page 46

to meet high quality standards for the material we were placing and for the compaction levels.”
With the new runway all but complete, officials at CVG can tick off several jobs that will increase the airport’s impact on passenger or freight needs in the area.
Last fall, CVG opened a new rental car and ground transportation center. The project cost $175 million to complete. The 1.5-million-sq.-ft. facility will encompass 2,700 parking spaces and will be used by 11 rental car companies.
“This facility is connected to the terminal and will save time for our travelers and enhance the CVG experience for the future,” said Candace McGraw, CEO of CVG.

Construction teams from The Harper Company and Easton Asphalt used some 120,000 tons of asphalt and 10,000 cu. yds. of concrete to rebuild runway 9/27.
The continued expansion of cargo and e-commerce operations at CVG is highlighted by DHL and the Amazon Air Hub located at the airport. By the end of last year,Amazon’s 600-acre facility was operating a dozen flights per day, including millions of packages every week. The Hub represents a $1.5 billion investment in the northern Kentucky region.
FEAM AERO is constructing a second hangar at CVG. The $40.2 million facility will encompass 150,000 sq. ft. of hangar and storage space. The facility will be able to accommodate wide-body aircraft types up to a 767 fully enclosed and have three parking spots. The project will be completed by the end of 2023.

Workers harvested 14,000 tons of millings from the old runway for use in the new pavement.
“This new operation will provide ample aircraft maintenance capacity for CVG’s growing cargo operations,” said Fred Murphy, CEO of FEAMAERO. “This need for expansion confirms that we are in the right place, at the right time with the right partners.”

Keeping one of the biggest construction equipment stories of 2021 under wraps was not an easy task, so how did Paul Douglas, managing director at Rokbak, and his team keep the rebranding of Terex Trucks a surprise for so long? The answer lies in good old-fashioned hard work from a dedicated and highly-skilled team.
“I was amazed that it didn’t filter out, I kept thinking I’d see something on social media,” said Douglas. “As the project progressed it pulled in more employees and more departments — there wasn’t a single function in the business that didn’t have to get involved.
“For instance, we had to try the new color scheme out in the paintshop, we said it was a customer-specific color — which is something we’ve done for our customers before. Then, before the launch, we had to take the RA30 and RA40 to a quarry to take photos for the marketing materials. It was incredible how everyone in our team, the dealers and our external partners worked together to ensure it remained confidential. It just goes to show what a fantastic team we have, everyone pulled together and did their bit.”
The COVID-19 pandemic and the essential lockdowns that came with it were obviously extremely difficult, but ironically the pandemic actually helped to keep the news under wraps. With no events or exhibitions to attend, and no customers or journalists visiting the Motherwell factory, the risk of anyone finding out was greatly diminished.
“We didn’t have to drop the Terex Trucks name but we had overrun on the initial agreement,” said Douglas. “For the first few years changing our name wasn’t a high priority, as we focused on stabilizing the business and investing in the product, manufacturing and our people. But after we’d made such significant performance improvements to our articulated haulers, it was a natural progression to rebrand — the Terex Trucks name was holding us back. Our customers and dealers also expected and supported a name change to reflect the new machines, so the rebrand was set in motion about four years ago.
“The Volvo Group is extremely brand aware. Originally we investigated whether there would be any mileage in resurrecting one of the group’s sleeping legacy brands, until the practicalities and legalities outweighed the benefits. This was the first time Volvo had created a new global brand from scratch, so they were heavily invested in its development and success. We got a lot of help and support from the Volvo Group and Volvo Construction Equipment in particular.
“On top of the significant investment they made in the Rokbak brand, we also benefited from shared resources and support when it came to things like design, branding, marketing and legal work — they really helped us bring the brand to life.”
With a small focus group put together from marketing, branding, commercial, sales and dealer development backgrounds, the task of selecting a new name could begin.
“Some of our original shortlist names turned out to be similar to those used elsewhere, but the team came up with one that we all loved and was truly unique and impactful,” said Douglas. “We were told by Legal that they had never seen anything as clean as it, and that we should grab it with both
hands.”
The team then consulted a handful of select dealers across Asia, Europe, the Americas and Oceania in an attempt to understand how different cultures would perceive the most critical aspects of the new brand.
“One piece of dealer feedback was that it was important to ensure our eight decades of hauling heritage was embedded in the new brand, which was essential for us too,” said Douglas. “One way we incorporated this is through a ‘Made in Britain’ element within our machine branding for certain markets.
“Of all the dealers we initially tested the Rokbak name and new color on, the majority were immediately enthusiastic, leaving just a couple of individuals who needed to see a little bit more to be convinced. I wasn’t remotely surprised at how quickly they changed their minds at the launch.
“Two dealers in particular immediately flipped 180 degrees — they were literally jumping for joy, and couldn’t wait to start promoting the new haulers. I’d never seen them as enthusiastic when they were selling the previous machines. They are now some of our biggest champions.”
That enthusiasm must have been contagious because when the Rokbak brand was finally revealed on Sept. 1 2021 — gratifyingly taking the media, customers and the competition by surprise — the public reaction was music to Douglas’ ears.
“I was delighted by how well it was received externally,” he said. “The momentum built quickly, with customers and dealers alike eager to get their hands on Rokbak-branded products, whether that was haulers, work wear or coffee mugs. Seeing the news bouncing around social media was great too, perhaps the best feedback you can get.
“When people see the new Sand paintjob in real life they are blown away — it looks incredible on the iron. We’ve been out at a few trade shows and open days this year — including Hillhead, Balmoral Show and ScotPlant — and the feedback has been that our haulers were the best-looking pieces of equipment on site.”
The success of the entire rebranding project also was recognized by a wider audience when the company walked away from the Star Awards 2022 with five accolades from the Marketing Society, as well as a CeeD Industry Award at the start of the year.

Hyundai Construction Equipment Americas announced it is entering the articulated dump truck market with two new models — the HA30 and HA45 articulated dump trucks — targeting the popular 30- and 45-ton segments. The first of the new ADTs are now available for order through Hyundai’s North American network of authorized dealers.
With rated payloads of 28 and 41 tons respectively, the HA30 and HA45 articulated dump trucks provide an ideal haul truck match for Hyundai’s larger crawler excavators and wheeled loaders. Designed primarily for high-volume earthmoving projects, highway construction, and mine and quarry operations, Hyundai’s articulated haulers provide maximum drive and traction in the worst site conditions, maintaining productivity.
Hyundai Heavy Industries Group in 2021 purchased the Doosan business, which now operates — along with Hyundai Construction Equipment — as a separate division within Hyundai Genuine. While maintaining their respective management and dealer network structures, the two divisions plan further integration in R&D, design, engineering, procurement and manufacturing.
The new Hyundai HA30 and HA45 trucks are built around a full-time six-wheel drive concept, with front and rear limited slip differentials and a longitudinal differential that can be manually locked, for maximum drive and traction on difficult terrain.
The trucks have a compact chassis design, to aid maneuverability, with a sloping rear frame and a front-mounted differential integrated into the ZF transmission, allowing for a shorter front frame section. This results in the smallest turning radius in the vehicle class and outstanding stability, according to the manufacturer.
Self-leveling hydro-gas suspension on the front axle further supports a comfortable ride, delivering maximum tractability in tough ground conditions.
The turning ring is mounted in front of the chassis articulation point, resulting in an equal weight distribution to the front wheels in all driving situations, for increased stability and traction.
Tandem reduction gearboxes on the two rear axles enable maximum oscillation of the rear axles to maintain ground contact on rough terrain. The single central differential increases ground clearance beneath the truck.
The trucks are supplied with a gradient meter, with flipover protection and a Body Over Center of Gravity function, to assist drivers when operating on rough terrain.
The HA30 has a 22 cu. yd. heaped body capacity, that rises to 23.3 cu. yd. when fitted with a tailgate. The larger HA45 offers a 32 cu. yd. heaped capacity, rising to 34 cu. yd. with a tailgate. Both dump bodies can be optionally heated by the engine exhaust gases to prevent freezing and sticking of materials when operating in colder temperatures.
Internal wear plates are available as an option when work-
ing in applications with heavy and hard rock.
Tier IV Final Scania diesel engines power both trucks. The HA30 uses a five-cylinder, 9.3-L DC9 turbocharged diesel, producing 375 hp and 1,876 Nm of torque. The larger HA45 uses a six-cylinder, 12.7-L DC13 diesel engine, producing a maximum 500 hp and 2,476 Nm of torque.
Both engines drive through eight-speed ZF automatic transmissions. The torque converter has lock-up in all gears, reducing fuel consumption and increasing efficiency.

Ground level service points are designed for maximum efficiency and improved safety.
The engine canopy tilts forward for access to filters and fill points, while the complete cab structure also can be tilted towards the rear of the truck, to provide access for repair and maintenance.
Hyundai’s Hi-Mate telematic monitoring system is standard, with satellite and GSM connectivity, to reach the most inaccessible construction and mining sites across the world. This enables remote monitoring of productivity, fuel consumption, system warning and maintenance status, reducing unplanned downtime and improving fleet utilization.
With the most spacious ROPS/FOPS cab on the market, the Hyundai ADT features an ergonomic layout to the controls, a high-quality air-suspended operator’s seat, an internal sound level of just 72dB(A), MP3 and Bluetooth-compatible radio, USB charger, all-round safety rails and a footrest. Interior cab storage includes room for an optional cool/hot box and 12V power sockets for operator phones and other accessories. Full cab climate control is standard on both models for maximum comfort throughout the working day.
A comprehensive monitor panel provides an integrated payload meter to prevent overloading and to record productivity. Diagnostic functions are included within the monitoring system, and the operator can remotely check hydraulic and transmission oil levels from the cab.
A gradient meter ensures that the truck is driven safely within its limits, while an integrated rearview camera and large mirrors provide excellent all-round visibility when reversing under an excavator or into the dumping area.

Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) continues acting on its commitment to drive change towards a net-zero future. Following the completion of a multi-stakeholder research project aimed at breaking new ground in hydrogen technology, the company has started testing of the world’s first fuel cell articulated hauler prototype, the Volvo HX04. The results of the project will provide important insights into the possibilities provided by hydrogen and fuel cells as Volvo CE continues research for its future product development programs.
Acting on its Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) commitment of net-zero value chain greenhouse gas emissions by 2040, and driving industry transformation towards carbon neutrality, Volvo CE has accelerated its work into sustainable power sources.
Besides battery-electric solutions, where Volvo CE is already offering the largest range of commercial products, the company’s efforts also include exploring the potential of electrification through hydrogen fuel cell technology. Now, an important milestone has been reached with the testing of a world-first emission free hydrogen fuel cell articulated hauler prototype, the Volvo HX04.
The Volvo HX04 is the result of a research project running between 2018 and 2022, with funding from FFI, a national collaboration between the Swedish InnovationAgency VINNOVA, Swedish Energy Agency and Swedish Transport Administration, to support sustainable vehicle strategic research, innovation and development. Partners include Volvo CE, RISE Research Institutes of Sweden, who provided specialist competence on driveline development and safe-
ty, and PowerCell Sweden, a developer of fuel cell-based hydrogen-electric power solutions.
The development and building of the six-wheel prototype has largely been carried out at Volvo CE’s facility in Braås, Sweden — the same location where Gravel Charlie, the world’s first articulated hauler, was born back in 1966, giving the Volvo HX04 the nickname “Electric Charlie”.
Engineers at the Technology Center in Eskilstuna, Sweden, have contributed with software development and knowledge gathered through its fuel cell test lab. While not commercially available, valuable insights from the concept will inevitably inform future production, the company said.
Infrastructure for hydrogen is still in development, which means refueling the Volvo HX04 is an important aspect to solve in the project. Shell installed a hydrogen refueling station at the Volvo CE test track in Braås. Both Shell and Volvo
Group are founding members of H2Accelerate, a collaboration of companies working to foster conditions for the mass market roll-out of hydrogen trucks in Europe.
Oliver Bishop, Shell’s general manager of hydrogen mobility, said: “Providing the fueling infrastructure for this innovative project gave Shell the opportunity to demonstrate our technical capabilities in hydrogen and enabled us to support one of our key global collaboration partners in taking another step forward in their decarbonization journey, which goes to the heart and intent of Shell’s Powering Progress strategy.”
The fueling process for hydrogen vehicles is fast — the Volvo HX04 is charged with 12 kg hydrogen in circa 7,5 minutes, enabling it to operate for approximately four hours. Fuel cells work by combining hydrogen with oxygen and the resulting chemical reaction produces electricity which powers the machine. In the process, fuel cells also produce heat that can be used for heating of the cab. Fuel cells only emit one thing — water vapor.
In principle, a fuel cell works much like a battery except that it generates its own electricity from the hydrogen onboard as needed rather than being charged from an external source. Vehicles with fuel cell electric powertrains have an uptime, range and fueling time similar to that of combustion engine powered vehicles.
While battery-electric vehicles and biofuels are commercially available today — as more sustainable alternatives to diesel — commercialization of hydrogen-powered machines is expected during the second half of this decade.

Delivering performance with a 1,580 gross hp (1180 kW), Tier IV final Komatsu SDA16V159E-3 engine, the HD1500-8E0 helps drive high levels of productivity.
Does your operation need an efficient 150 ton haulage solution that can deliver performance on grade while providing energy-saving technologies to help achieve lower fuel consumption? Komatsu’s rigid frame off-highway haul truck, the HD1500-8E0, is purpose-built for mining, quarry and aggregate applications.
Delivering performance with a 1,580 gross horsepower (1180 kW), Tier IV final Komatsu SDA16V159E-3 engine, the HD1500-8E0 helps drive high levels of productivity. The redesigned cab, combined with a MacPherson strut-type and hydropneumatic suspension, gives operators the smooth and comfortable ride they need for long shifts.
• Net horsepower: 1,570 hp (1,171 kW) @ 1,900 rpm
• Operating weight: 550,229 lbs. (249,579 kg)
• Rated payload: 153.2 tons (139.0 t)
• Rated Capacity (SAE Heaped 2:1): 102 cu. yd. (78 cu m)
In addition to speed on grade, the HD1500-8E0 is equipped with hydraulic, wet multiple-disc brakes on all four corners. The continuously cooled, large-capacity brakes also act as a highly responsive retarder, providing operators with confidence at higher speeds when traveling downhill. Downhill descent also can be controlled by setting a desired travel speed with the automatic retard speed control (ARSC), which applies the brake retarder to maintain the desired setting and descend the road with confidence.
With a tight turning radius (36 ft. 9 in.), operators in the HD1500-8E0 can easily maneuver in and out of tight spaces when spotting to be loaded or positioning to dump. The MacPherson strut-type independent front suspension features an A-arm wheel-to-mainframe design for wide spacing and easy access to the engine bay.
Komatsu’s traction control system (KTCS) provides enhanced control in loose or slippery haul road conditions by monitoring the rear wheels for slippage and automatically applying pressure to the independent wheel brake assemblies.
The HD1500-8E0 has a 7-speed, fully automatic trans-
mission with two configurable reverse speeds. Komatsu’s advanced transmission with optimum modulation control system (K-ATOMiCS) provides electronic shift control with automatic clutch modulation, promoting optimized clutch engagement at every gear to provide smooth shifting without losing torque, offering a comfortable ride while helping to reduce material spillage.
Enhance payloads, promote productivity and control the life cycle costs of your truck with the HD1500-8E0‘s integrated payload meter (PLM). It manages the payload of each hauling cycle, analyzing production volume and the working conditions of the machine.
Designed with a convenient control layout, the ergonomic operator cab is equipped with an air suspension seat to help dampen vibrations. Seat heater and ventilator are equipped as standard. To help improve operator comfort, hydropneumatic suspension provides a smooth ride over rough terrain, while the low noise engine, fan clutch and cab sealing provide a quiet, low decibel operating environment.
Give your operator greater visibility to the work-area with features like KomVision, a 360-degree monitoring system that uses six cameras for a real-time view of surroundings. Two screen mode allows your operator to view the 360degree bird’s eye view and any of the six cameras to be viewed simultaneously, on a dedicated monitor.
Designed for convenient preventative maintenance and servicing, a ground-level service center is located at the bottom of the HD1500-8E0‘s hydraulic tank, putting engine, transmission, brake control and hydraulic oil filling evacuation ports accessible in one central location. The standard, automatic greasing system helps minimize maintenance time by automatically supplying grease at predetermined intervals. A battery disconnect switch, located on the left side of the vehicle, is accessible from the ground level. For security during maintenance, there are tie-off anchor points for safety harnesses.
The cold weather package includes electric heating elements for engine oil pan, coolant, steering and hoist oil tank, transmission oil pan and brake oil tank, which plugs into an external power supply. The engine also is equipped with a cold weather ether starting aid system, standard for the HD1500-8E0.

“The project will transform the road through a complete reconstruction and make it much more convenient to access the communities the project serves,” said Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) project manager Cat Seely. “The project will add capacity and increase safety along the interstate by removing the weaving movements that are currently occurring at the I69 and I-465 interchange.”
Numbers show I-69 and I-465 is one of Indiana’s top three busiest interchanges. INDOT said this project will support the future national I-69 corridor.
“I-465 in Indianapolis is where the existing I-69 north to Canada meets the new I-69 extending southwest,” said Seely. “The new I-69 Finish Line section between Martinsville and Indianapolis is under construction and expected to open at the end of 2024. The I-69 Ohio River Crossing at the Kentucky state line is moving toward construction, which will complete the corridor through Indiana.”
The project was split into two contracts to optimize the bidding environment with construction firms.
“The first contract also allowed for completion of right-of-way acquisition, building demolition and utility relocations prior to the start of the second contract” said Seely. “Construction and traffic plan development is being completed for Contract 2 to be advertised for bid late this year and begin construction in 2023.”
Clear Path 465 is being built through traditional construction contracting. E&B Paving of Anderson, Ind., Rieth-Riley Construction of Goshen, Ind., and Gradex of Indianapolis joined forces in a unique triventure to bid on the first contract.
Said Seely, “When you’ve seen a project through the design phase, it’s exciting to see construction under way and progress being made. I’m happy to have been able to be part of the team delivering a project that will increase safety and mobility for travelers through this major interchange. and help with overall flow of traffic in the Indianapolis area.”
Mark Perron, Parsons Corp. project manager, said the project team has coordinated with emergency responders, school districts and local officials to develop a construction traffic plan that keeps interstate traffic flowing and minimizes the use of local roads as alternate routes.
“Some long-term interstate entrance ramp closures are needed to make this happen. Road and ramp closures will be minimized for first responders, bicyclists and pedestrians,” he said.
“Travel lanes were added to I465 and I-69 through the interchange since its original construc-
tion nearly 50 years ago, but much of the original pavement, bridges and design remain. The interchange has not kept pace with significant traffic growth. The existing cloverleaf-style loop ramps have an advisory speed limit of 25 mph and require traffic to merge and weave.”
Modifications will be made primarily near the I-69 and I-465 interchange. High-speed ramps connecting I-465 and I-69 will be built typical of a new interstate-tointerstate system interchange.
Local traffic movements will be separated from express through movements using concrete barriers, new bridges and the existing cloverleaf ramps.
Perron noted that the project required the relocation of four businesses and demolition of seven buildings.
“The state purchased the needed land and relocated four businesses over the past two years along I-69 south of 82nd Street. The new I-69 southbound ramps to I-465 and Binford Boulevard will be built in this area.”
Under INDOT’s noise policy, the Clear Path 465 project will build seven noise barriers. An existing section in Contract 1 is being removed and replaced for the construction of added lanes on I-465 and the regrading of slopes and ditches. Plans also call for building 14 new bridges. Most of the new structures will be located at the I-69 and I-465 interchange as part of Contract 2.
According to Josh Lea, E&B Paving project manager, limited access to the job site requires many operations working in the same area.
“At East 71st Street, for example, we have crews moving noise barriers, grading for MSE wall and stockpiling materials. We’re working to minimize the impacts this has on the public. Maintaining traffic also presents constructability challenges, such as replacing drainage structures on new alignments.”
Currently, crews are completing temporary ramps at the I-69 interchange, removing noise barriers and building MSE wall to widen the I-465 bridge at East 71st Street. Six lanes of I-465 traffic, three in each direction, are being maintained during construction. This requires the road to be widened and rebuilt in pieces with traffic shifted between phases.
As part of the first contract, crews have cleared the right-ofway, replaced state highway fencing, shifted I-465 traffic, installed

pandemic.
But the concrete market in particular has been hit hard as a result of several factors.
Today, cement mix is in short supply creating problems reported in areas such as northeast Indiana and northwest Ohio
Some contractors are estimating double the cost of completing projects while others report delays in scheduling that mean the loss of state funding.
According to a report by wpta21.com the shortage is causing backups for contractors relying on concrete mixers to make the concrete.
The mixers are limited in how much product they can supply for lack of ingredients.
“The concrete shortage is showing no signs of letting up anytime soon,” reported the Indiana television station.
That situation is causing continued delays for both major local construction projects and home improvements.
In Evanston, Ill., Kelvin Co. owners Paul and Kimberly Boynton report that increasing demand for concrete, coupled with the supply chain issues, have affected their business.
They told Evanston RoundTable that a local IUOE strike this summer slowed down work all over the Chicago area, including their customer territory.
A built-up demand for concrete on priority highway projects has hit an already-sluggish supply chain and forced suppliers to cut production.
Kelvin’s concrete supplier Ozinga served notice it had to close plants on Saturdays.
By late summer, the plant had started taking fewer orders and limited the amount of concrete customers could order.
“We need to pump the brakes in order not to put ourselves in a position of running out of material mid-pour,” Justin Ozinga said.
Companies in the Louisville, Ky., area were struggling to get enough cement this summer.
Ron Hartman, vice president of sales of Ernst Concrete, told wdrb.com that the Louisville area was facing challenges in acquiring the material.
“Cement is the one thing you’ve got to have to make concrete,” said Hartman, vice president of sales. “There’s only so much of it being made right now, and the current demand is pushing supply to its limits.”
He said though the situation was serious, Ernst was not hit as hard as other companies.
“In our area, the issue is mainly due to one of the cement suppliers having a breakdown,” he reported back in May. “It’s caused issues with the people that were buying directly from them.”
Ernst is in a situation “where our suppliers are able to keep up with their commitments to us, which has allowed us to keep up with our commitments to our customers,” said Hartman.
He said his company has been able to keep up with demand but has been put on allocation. Patience is key.
“You may not get what you want when you want, but you are going to get it,” he said. “And that is the main thing right now. Just be patient, work with us and everybody in the industry. All the other producers are doing their best to work with everyone else.”
But other contractors expressed frustration in simply lin-
ing up jobs.
“It’s so hard to schedule jobs because we can’t get concrete,” said Miguel Hernandez, referring to residential pours.
“Not much we can do without a foundation, that’s for sure,” Billy Doelker, owner of Key Homes, told wdrb. “We’re being told there’s a cement shortage. Some concrete suppliers seem to be having more issues with it than others.”
He said historically, contractors could call today and get cement delivered the next day.
This summer, local contractors were having to schedule
delivers five and six days out at a time.
Doelker said he was told to expect the situation to remain for the rest of 2022, but the local industry is hopeful things will turn around before then.
“This isn’t going to last forever,” Hartman said. “Hopefully, it is short-term, and everybody’s doing their best to get everything going again.”
In Woodfield, Ohio, Amy Zwick, county engineer, met with commissioners in early September to discuss delays in a county road project because of higher material and fuel costs.
The timesleaderonline.com reported that among bids received for the project was one set at 55 percent above the original estimate due to cost increases in fuel, asphalt and cement.
She said three stabilization projects were subject to delays because of the shortage.
“The biggest driving factor we think is cement shortage,” said Zwick. “So, cement producers are prioritizing ready-mix plants and any cement they are able to produce and ship are going to ready-mix plants first.”
As a result of the bid amount and the lack of funds to cover it, the county road project was not awarded.
This summer, it was predicted that cement shortages would delay road projects nationwide.
“Traditionally, concrete is fairly easy to line up on a project,” said Kyle Althoff, director of construction of Quality Concrete, Fargo, N.D.
But the traditionally easy-to-schedule task has been difficult this entire construction season.
“Cancel pours, move them back, the schedule just kind of keeps walking in the wrong direction,” he told inforum.com, and the delays are affecting projects.
The delays are what they are, said Dave Grausam, vice president of Kost Materials, who expects concrete paving projects along I-29 to take longer to complete.
Grausam admitted that the company is “burning” through its backup cement supplies this summer, and said he fully expects slow-downs. “It will get done, but there will be delays.”
He expects the cement shortage to start improving a little less than a year from now.
The PCA identified 18 states experiencing a short supply of cement, necessary to make concrete.
The shortages are forcing builders to scramble to be keep projects on schedule.
Edward Sullivan, vice president of economic research of the PCA said that the shortages are being felt “from Massachusetts to Florida with the exception of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware.”
The widening swatch stretches as far west as the Mississippi River, “touching Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana,” he added. “California and Nevada are also affected.”
Sullivan said in a Builder.com article all this must be looked at in the context of a strong economy.
“We assume the supply-chain improvement will be sticky. There are so many factors in place that that improvement will be relatively slow.”
He believes product demand will likely improve, “which
A built-up demand for concrete on highway projects, which take priority in certain regions, has hit an already-sluggish supply chain and forced suppliers to cut cement production. The concrete shortage causing backups this year is attributed to cement mixer availability. The mixers are limited in how much product they can supply because of a lack of ingredients. Contractors can significantly reduce costs and speed up their project timelines by trying innovative construction techniques, such as prefab construction.The Ohio Landscapers Association (OLA) held its annual Snow and Ice Management Clinic and Trade Show at St. Michael's Woodside in Broadview Heights, Ohio, on Aug. 25. The event is designed to provide information, training and resources geared toward improving its memberships’ snow and ice maintenance practices and improving their bottom line.
Educational clinics were conducted by industry experts and covered topics ranging from understanding clients’ expectations to employee training techniques to salt tracking technologies and anti-icing/liquid calibration.
The keynote speaker was Phill Sexton of WIT Advisers, a consulting company founded by Sexton, which provides advice for landscape companies on best practices and sustainable winter management.
Attendees also had an opportunity to meet with representatives from Ohio’s leading equipment, product and service providers along with manufacturer representatives to discuss the latest innovations in winter maintenance in the outdoor trade show area. Breakfast and lunch were provided by OLA at the event.
Established in 1965, the OLA is a nonprofit trade association for landscape contractors and suppliers, encouraging professional standards and promoting the green industry. The association conducts informative meetings, educational programs and
networking opportunities and serves as an advocate for its members’ business interests at both the state and federal levels.

The Indiana Department of Transportation funded the research through itsJointTransportationResearchProgram.A paper about the innovation was published in the peer-reviewed journal Remote Sensing.
Stockpile management is important in roadway maintenance, which uses salt to deice roads to keep traffic flowing safely, and in other applications. Government agencies are increasingly interested in tracking stockpiles to assess their environmental impact,includingeffectsonroadsidevegetation and the salinity of surface water. Salt and sand also may affect pavement durability.
Jeremy McGuffey, statewide winter operations manager of INDOT, said the department has nearly 120 salt storage buildings aroundthestateandthatmostlocationsvisually estimate the volume.
“This is inherently incorrect and will vary from person to person,” McGuffey said. “If I pointed to a pile of stone on the ground, could another person accurately tell me the volume of that stone based on sight alone?
“There are a few locations that use survey equipment to take measurements based on the exterior size — the height and width — of the stockpile, but those don’t account for depth. Many of our buildings are full of salt year-round, and there is no way to reach the back side of the pile to determine how long it is.”
Traditional methods to measure stockpiles use field survey procedures that last several hours and expose surveying crews to dangerous conditions. Modern LiDAR technology — or light detection and ranging technology — is safer and more reliable, but its peak performance is confined to wellplannedscanningandcomplexdata processing schemes when dealing with large indoor sites.
Salt monitoring and reporting technology, or SMART, was createdbyAymanHabib,theThomasA. Page professor of civil engineering, and Darcy Bullock, the Lyles Family professor of civil engineering, both of Purdue's Lyles School of Civil Engineering.
Habib said SMART integrates consumer-grade sensing modalities of imaging and LiDAR units to acquire stockpile data in fewer than 10 minutesperfacility,eveninchallengingenvironmental situations.
“SMART also uses an innovative dataprocessing strategy that can handle this data for accurate evaluation of stockpile volume
as well as provide a visual record of the mapped facility in the form of colorized point clouds,” Habib said.
SMART is more precise, more cost-effective and safer than traditional commercial technologies to estimate the volume of stockpiles of bulk materials.
“The technology estimates volume with less than 1 percent error and costs less than $10,000; existing technologies cost more than twice that,” Habib said. “It also allows for practical, quick and safe data acquisition. Some traditional technologies require an operator to climb the stockpile, which leads to extended and unsafe data acquisition.”
McGuffey said SMART has already brought positive results to INDOT.
“With the system we developed with
Purdue, the empty dimensions of the buildingaresolvedforfirst,andthenthesaltpile’s volume can be easily calculated. The LiDAR system bounces light off the pile millions of times to collect the information we need to determine the volume,” McGuffey said. “The other huge plus is that this system is mostly automated with the only real human interaction being the initial install and then periodic cleaning.”
Habib and Bullock disclosed the information to the Purdue Research Foundation Office of Technology Commercialization, which has applied for a patent from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. For information about licensing opportunities, contact Dhananjay Sewak of OTC at dsewak@prf.org about 2021-HABI-69512.
Habib said the next steps in developing SMART are to package the system so it can be permanently mounted in a storage facility to allow for automated data collection, to strengthen its ability to work in storage facilities with domed rooftops, and to enhance the value of the data by driving colorized points.

Don SmockAuction Company held its 30th annual fall auction at its complex in Pendleton, Ind., on Sept. 16.
The auction drew a crowd of active bidders from Indiana and surrounding states. Online bidding also was strong.
Sourced from a number of consignors, the equipment up for bid included excavators, crawlers, tractors, loader backhoes, scrapers, skid steer loaders, attachments and a large selection of trucks.
Founded in 1990 by Don Smock and now headed by Don’s son, Nic, Don Smock Auction Company Inc. holds four seasonal auctions per year at its all-weather facility in Pendleton and conducts on-site auctions throughout the Midwest. The company is scheduled to conduct a series of INDOT auctions at various locations in Indiana throughout October and into November and its 30th annual fall stateline consignment auction is set for Nov. 17.

temporary concrete barriers and built temporary crossovers and sign foundations in the I-465 median. The deck overlay for the Allisonville Road bridge over I-465 has been completed.
Lea said new ramp or auxiliary lanes will be built alongside the through lanes, entering and exiting at interchanges. This allows more room for traffic to accelerate and enter the interstate or decelerate and exit, minimizing the merging and weaving that slows traffic. He also explained that the I-465 bridge approaches are being replaced at the White River, and the bridge over East 71st Street bridge is being widened to carry added I-465 lanes.
I-465 pavement replacement will occur in phases, along with the addition of new through and ramp lanes. The pri-
mary maintenance work is a bridge deck overlay at Allisonville Road over I-465.
Lea acknowledged that not everything has gone according to plan.
“Some of the existing shoulder pavement was thinner than expected and is being repaved over the coming weekends to maintain traffic during construction. The construction schedule also has been adjusted for delays in obtaining materials for supply chain issues.”
Weather also has been a concern for workers.
“Contract 1 construction mobilized this year as temperatures increased in late winter and early spring. The project area experienced a wetter than normal spring, which had moderate impacts on the construction schedule. Demolition, earthwork, bridgework and small concrete pours are expect-
ed to continue through each Midwest winter, as temperature and soil conditions permit.”
Lea said a mix of heavy machinery is being used on the job.
“Rieth-Riley Construction and Gradex are using a variety of construction equipment to complete the work, including Caterpillar excavators, bulldozers, backhoes, pavers, rollers and front-end loaders. Multiple makes and models of tri-axle trucks and cranes also are being used throughout the project.”
Crews are using asphalt millings and temporary asphalt pavement currently. The final highway will use continuously reinforced concrete pavement and concrete barrier walls. New bridges will be supported with prestressed concrete beams, and existing bridges will be widened with steel beams.
Lea said rebuilding the project in pieces, to keep more than 100,000 vehicle trips through the work zone on an average day, is one of the more tedious parts of current construction.
“Most of the work completed so far is temporary work to maintain traffic. Acquiring construction materials in the current market is also time-consuming. “
Despite the challenges, Lea is proud to be a part of the Clear Path 465 Project.
“Seeing what you’ve accomplished at the end of each year and knowing it will endure and serve the public for generations is a very fulfilling part about working in this industry.”
INDOT from page 78 INDOT photo Work began in early 2022 and should be completed by the end of 2025. INDOT photo The construction schedule also has been adjusted for delays in obtaining materials for supply chain issues.implies inventories will remain lean.”
Right now, though, “about 43 percent of the major areas of U.S. consumption are under shortage conditions,” Sullivan said. “Each one of the areas impacted has shown an increase in demand or a heavy reliance on imports.”
Ongoing supply issues have builders exploring alternative strategies, including ordering early.
“We are having to order concrete 16 to 18 days in advance, when two to three days is typical,” said Tony Fitzgerald, vice president of purchasing of Morrison Homes. “And concrete block orders have to be made eight days in advance of need.”
Fitzgerald is working to establish a new foreign supply for his concrete suppliers.
“The material is available, it is a matter of obtaining the ships,” he said.
Tool and equipment app developer OneKey suggests taking a proactive approach to navigate the supply-chain crisis.
“These tactics may not eliminate supply issues, but they can limit the blast radius of setbacks, delays and shortages.”
Traditional onsite construction methods have established processes and systems throughout the industry, but delays and price surges have plagued the conventional building approach.
“Contractors can significantly reduce costs and speed up their project timelines by trying innovative construction techniques, like offsite construction,” said One-Key.
Prefabricated construction methods in which project components are mass-produced, assembled and transported to the building site, offer immense potential for the current situation.
The process maximizes the use of materials by minimizing waste and reducing prices.
Offsite assembly, especially for mass-produced components, is quick and streamlined without the delays caused by inclement weather.
Positive real-world results from prefabricated construction indicate that contractors could offer lower prices and faster turnaround times by utilizing prefab construction.
This is especially beneficial when used in conjunctionwithtoolslikebuildinginformation modeling.
Many contractors have already begun adapting by placing orders months in advance.
Planning for one- to six-month delays can end up saving trouble in the long run because it allows contractors to create more reliable schedules, and it also makes additional delays less likely.
These advance orders may help suppliers plan accordingly, which could help the supply chain catch up down the road.
It is crucial for contractors in today’s construction industry to be straightforward about delays and setbacks due to supply-chain issues.
They need to be honest about how long a project will realistically take when offering estimates to potential clients, even if it is longer than they would prefer.
The reality is that virtually all construction projects are experiencing significant delays right now
Clients will ultimately be more satisfied when something is completed on time, even if that timeline is longer than usual.
Offering a client a realistic project time-
line will dodge the need to have challenging conversations down the road when delays do inevitably occur, said One-Key.
“In fact, the No. 1 cause of construction project delays is a lack of upfront planning, which includes predicting likely obstacles such as supply chain delays.”
Contractors may need to brush up on their project planning skills in addition to communicating with clients about project expectations.
Similarly, it can be helpful to anticipate materials becoming unavailable during a project.
Working with clients to choose alternatives ahead of time can help prevent additional delays.
Green building techniques have become more popular over recent years, but they are more valuable today than ever.
Contractors may want to consider appealing to nontraditional demographics to address the labor shortage.
Shifting recruiting strategies to cater to these groups could help attract more people to the industry’s many rewarding roles.
