He was a month shy of cele bratinghis93rdbirthday.Heissurvivedbyhisloving wife, Patricia, daughters Kathleen Palmer (Philip Palmer) and Jennifer Dirkes (Michael Smith), grand children Kyle Palmer (Maggie Palmer) and Emma Palmer (Nathan Fisher), and great-granddaughter Abigail Palmer.

Mr. Dirkes was born in Chicago on Nov. 14, 1929, to John and Ella (Walsh) Dirkes. After living a short while in Bellwood, Ill., his parents then settled into Brookfield, Ill., with four children: Virginia, the remaining sibling and oldest of the four, John Dirkes, Donald Dirkes, and George. The family attended St. Mary’s Parish in Brookfield.

After graduating from Riverside-Brookfield High School in 1947, Mr. Dirkes followed his parents to Lyndon Station,Wis. He worked to gather money for college and attended the University of Wisconsin — SuperiorashecouldbutenlistedintheArmytoserve in the Korean War from 1951 through 1953.

Part of his military training instruction was in Fort Chaffe, Ariz., with the privileged honor of being selected to train in Army Intelligence. He had an excitingtimeinKoreaonthefrontlinesacquiringand analyzing ariel intelligence for the ground troops. He holds a patent on a discovery of black and white imaging perception. Once back from Korea, he returned toWisconsin, where he was off again to col lege but this time at UW Madison.

During the more difficult timesneartheendofhislife,theWisconsinfightsong was something that would rouse him from a reverie like a call to action, and his feet would move in time with the music.

Mr. Dirkes worked his way through several mines and construction companies, working both locally and interna tionally. He often spoke of several interesting projects he

headed for Lester Crown, one of the founders of Material Service, and for Cunningham Kiewit Company out of Lincoln, Neb.

His independent pet projectwasawhitemar ble quarry, Michigan Marble, which he estab lished in Iron Mountain, Mich. It was one of his “rock hobbies” that he occupied himself with throughout his life. He retired in 1997 from the organization but remained as both a sup port and influence to many. After retirement, Mr. Dirkes kept busy with various consulting projects and even some volunteer work with the United States Geological Survey.

While living with his brother, John, and his wife, Evalyn, in the southwest suburbs of Chicago, a sassy, cute gal from the Hinsdale area caught his attention. He went on to marry Patricia (StorkeHesler) and lived first in Brookfield, then moved to the Burr Ridge area, then La Grange Park, and even tually built their home in Indian Head Park where they resided for nearly 50 years. They were Florida “snowbirds” for many years, and had a second home in Fort Myers, Fla. They were married for 61 years, sharing many adventures, travel, laughter and won derful memories.

Mr. Dirkes loved Wisconsin football, watching the Bears play, travel, golf, enjoying a nice glass of whiskey, eating chocolate daily, discussing geology, the company of friends and having a good laugh.

BobcatAdvances Operations WithAutonomous Mower

Bobcat Company is accelerating its innovations in the landscaping and grounds maintenance industries with the announcement of its new autonomous mowing system. The company also is announcing the advancement of its autonomous technology and operations through a strategic investment in Greenzie, an autonomous software company for commercial lawn mowers and outdoor power equipment.

“Innovation is part of the Bobcat DNA. We invented the compact equipment industry more than 60 years ago, and we continue to reimagine the future of the industry today,” said Joel Honeyman, vice president of global innovation of Bobcat Company.

“Through this investment with Greenzie, we can accelerate our development of operator-assisted and automated solutions to help our customers be more productive on the job site or their backyard.”

The collaboration supports Bobcat’s introduction of its new autonomous, zeroturn mower, which offers game-changing efficiency and productivity by completing repetitive mowing tasks without the need for an onboard operator, according to the manufacturer.

Designed to operate with software developed by Greenzie, the Bobcat autonomous

mower has a ride-and-repeat feature, where operators can plot a course and mark areas for the mower to avoid during autonomous operations. Able to detect objects, known or unknown, the zero-turn mower travels its prescribed path while the operator can take on other tasks and maximize their jobsite efficiency. The machine utilizes mapping to execute an exact route that can be repeated; all of which can be managed or edited on a simple smartphone app.

Through this investment, Bobcat and Greenzie will join forces to accelerate Bobcat’s development of the autonomous capabilities and solutions across its product line-up.

“We are thrilled to close our largest investment round to date with a strategic investment by an industry leader like Bobcat,” said Charles Brian Quinn (CBQ), co-founder and CEO of Greenzie. “Our customers are desperate for solutions that help them overcome their biggest challenge: labor shortages. Our software helps crews be more productive, and will run on reliable, rugged Bobcat equipment they trust.”

The mower will have a limited launch in late 2023 with more details forthcoming.

BOMAG Innovation Days Showcases

Road Products, Capabilities

BOMAGAmericas Inc., a division of Fayat Group, a European-based manufacturer of several lines of road construction equipment, recently held an event at its Ridgeway, S.C., headquarters and factory to highlight its latest products to contractors and dealers.

The BOMAG Innovation Days demonstration introduced the equipment maker’s latest technologies as well as the capabilities of its new equipment in what BOMAG Global President Ralf Junker calls a “real life” jobsite setting.

By allowing more than 150 of its construction customers fromacrosstheUnitedStatesandCanadatoseeitsmachines working up close, rather than in immovable displays at trade shows, BOMAG officials believe people can better see and understand what the products can do.

Among the equipment for building professionals to inspect at the BOMAG event, north of Columbia, were its compaction, milling, paving and reclaiming/stabilizing machines for roadbuilding and other construction projects.

“Today, we are introducing a number of new innova tions,” Junker said, adding that upgrades were made to its compaction line’s newest small tamper, the BT 50, and a modern design has been applied to its light rollers. “From there, we have our new baby, the high-end BM 2000/65 large planer, BOMAG’s largest milling machine and already a best seller launched a half-year ago.”

Customer Feedback Valuable to BOMAG

After having held BOMAG Innovation Days events in Europe and Asia for years, the company began to hold the same events in the United States, a source of pride for the company.

Junker and other BOMAG executives stage these events tobetterunderstandtheneedsandgoalsofitscustomers,and it has always worked to lead the industry in groundbreaking new developments, he said.

A meet-and-greet reception opened BOMAG’s Innovation Days, followed the next day by what Junker called “more theoretical training” of the equipment, and an informativetourofboththepartswarehouseandtheproduct assembly line. Later, many of the manufacturer’s diverse set of road-building machines were put to work for the assem bled contractors.

In addition, a static equipment exposition at the factory allows customers to meet with and ask questions of BOMAG’s product managers and marketing personnel.

“People tell us quite precisely what they are demanding and looking for,” said Junker. “We need to meet our cus tomerstoexchangeideasandbeclosetothemtoknowwhat they need to be happy with our products. Their feedback is really a huge value for all of us in our work.”

To end each BOMAG Innovation Days gathering, BOMAG entertained its guests with a demonstration of the power of its compaction equipment, he said.

“People really enjoy seeing how easy it is to destroy up to four cars at the same time with one of our 60-ton com pactors,” Junker said, laughing.

National Pavement Expo Sets Schedule for Event in Charlotte in January 2023

Educational Advisory Board (EAB) members for the National Pavement Expo (NPE)And Conference completed their work this summer, pouring over proposals and selecting compelling educational topics and knowledgeable speakers. It’s all part of the run-up to the event, which is scheduled for Jan 25 to 27, 2023 in Charlotte, N.C.

For EAB member Todd Eichholz, owner and CEO of A&A Paving, Roselle, Ill., the process of choosing educational sessions became a bit easier due to a slight shift in submission rules.

“We used to put out a call for speakers and everybody would submit classes they wanted to teach,” Eichholz said. “This year we gave guidance on the types of classes that we wanted. These are the topics that we believe can really help contractors move to the next level of their business. We then got to pick the best of that class and really determine the best speakers and the best content.”

The show brings together vendors and contractors who make their living from asphalt and concrete paving, sealcoating, striping, sweeping, crack repair, pavement repair and snow removal.

Early registration rates are in effect for NPE through Oct. 28, 2022. After that, Advance Rates will be on offer until Nov. 31. Ultimately, the cost of registration amount to a wise investment that can have tangible effects on business, according to NPE.

“Since I started attending NPE, I’ve grown my business five times the size it used to be, because I’ve made relationships with other owners and contractors throughout the whole country,” Eichholz said.

“These are guys who I can call and I’m texting every single day asking, ‘How did you do this? What worked for you?’ I’m learning from guys who have much larger companies and I’m always trying to help guys who are still in the early stages — because I’ve already made the mistakes. The relationships I’ve made at NPE, coupled with what I’ve learned from speakers and equipment manufacturers, is why my company is five times the size it was when I first started attending.”

The potent combination of structured educational sessions, show floor interaction and networking events are all in place and a great way to start the

kind of relationships that can help the business.

NPE recently announced that a networking party at the NASCAR Hall of Fame has been confirmed for Jan. 26 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. NPE also will introduce the 1st Annual Driveway Games, an area on the expo floor devoted to children-at-heart competitions including three-point shooting, big wheel drag racing and axe throwing.

Porscha Brooks, marketing manager, added “NPE 2023 isn’t just serious business, it’s serious fun.”

Eichholz has a message for contractors who’ve never made the trip to NPE, or those who have not been back for a few years; Now is the time to gather inspiration, knowledge and contacts.

“Pavement maintenance will always happen,” he said. “We’re a very important industry and there will always be

the need for work. Contractors must learn how to adapt and evolve so they can stay relevant and profitable. That’s why you need to come to NPE. If you can’t adapt and evolve, you’re going to be left in the dust.”

While the billions spent on infrastructure don’t necessarily filter down to the NPE audience, there’s a silver lining that bodes well.

“When there’s not a lot of infrastructure and road work, the bigger companies start playing in our sandbox,” Eichholz said. “They’ll tend to take work very cheaply just to keep busy. If thoseguysarebusy,there’slesscompetition for our type of work. We want to keep those infrastructure guys busy doing what they’re best at, and leave the work that we’re the best at to us. The Infrastructure Act will keep them busy.”

HAMM Enters Electrical Machines Market With New Tandem Rollers

Rudd Equipment Company www.ruddequipment.com

Corbin, KY 606-528-9440

With eight models in the HD CompactLine, HAMM is entering the market segment for tandem rollers with electric drives.

Electrified tandem rollers, hybrid solutions and ECO mode: For many years, HAMM has been developing fuelefficient machine technology in order to achieve an efficient and, in turn, resource-conserving workflow on the construction site.

One milestone included the Power Hybrid roller from the HD+ series. With eight electrified tandem rollers, HAMM is now entering the segment for fully electrical construction machines.

Resource-Conserving Power Train

In all current series, the power train has been continuously optimized and designed for operation at reduced speeds. The operating companies therefore save fuel each day.

The automatic engine stop also reduces consumption: It automatically switches off the engine after a few minutes of downtime, while also taking into consideration the requirements for the exhaust gas cleaning systems. The ECO mode, which is integrated into all series, also helps the driver to compact in a way that they can easily save fuel.

Quiet Power Hybrid Rollers Save CO2

Back in 2016, HAMM was already the first manufacturer in the world to combine a diesel engine with a hydraulic accumulator for the development of alternative drives. With this Power Hybrid roller from the HD+ series, it was possible to reduce the fuel expenditure by approximately 15 percent — all without having to compromise on compaction power. This also was coupled with a reduction in noise emissions.

Emission-Free Compaction

With Electric Tandem Rollers

More and more municipalities are demanding low-emission or completely emission-free construction machines.

In the future, wherever compaction must be carried out free of emissions, the electrically powered tandem rollers in the HD CompactLine series can take over the compaction. When operating the electric tandem rollers, there are no differences to the diesel-powered models, and even the compaction power is identical, according to the manufacturer.

Fully Electrical Solution

Conceptually, HAMM is relying on a fully electric solution: Due to a high degree of electrified components, the compaction specialists achieve an optimal energy yield.

Upon demand, with the Power Hybrid rollers from HAMM, the hydraulic accumulator supplies up to 20 kW more than the diesel power unit in a short time.

A maintenance-free Li-ion battery with a capacity of around 23 kWh supplies the components via a 48 V onboard power supply. Furthermore, the energy released from the drive engines and vibration motors when braking is used via recuperation.

The bottom line is that the battery can be used to tackle an entire working day. To charge the permanently installed battery, plugs for 230 V and 400 V mains power are included on-board.

Electric Combination Roller With Oscillation: Quiet, Low-Vibration, Emission-Free

The electric drive also drastically reduces the noise emissions since there is no longer any noise from the engine. This makes the electric tandem rollers ideal for all areas in which you want to compact with as little noise as possible.

Since, in these environments, a low load with vibrations is often required, the compaction specialist is presenting electric vibration and oscillation rollers, as well as an electric combination roller with oscillation.

Operating With Biodiesel, HVO

Most of the HAMM rollers that are currently on the market can already be operated with non-fossil fuels. This includes biodiesel, i.e. diesel fuel that is derived from plants, as well as HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil). These can be mixed in with the diesel fuel or can replace it entirely. This also includes biodegradable hydraulic oils for the standard product range.

The Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities received more than $1.4 million to support the Alaska Railroad Corporation in replacing a howitzer-based avalanche control method with a RemoteAvalanche Control System above ARRC’s Portage Tunnel Door 4 in Portage Valley, Alaska, a remote location approximately 50 mi. southeast ofAnchorage.

The South Dakota Department of Transportation gets more than $1.8 million to help construct two 1,500-ft. transload tracks to transport lumber and aggregate, plus a 558-ft. industrial lead track and a concrete maintenance pit in an existing locomotive maintenance building for the Ringneck and Western Railroad.

A second South Dakota DOT rail project is receiving $800,000 from the FRA to help improve safety along the Rapid City, Pierre and Eastern Railroad by upgrading and installing eight culvert structures.That project will help those structures better withstand future flows from the storm water basins at their location.

Doosan DD100 Dozers in Full Production, On Way to N.A.

he new Doosan DD100 dozers are being produced at the manufacturing facility in SouthKorea.Customerscanexpecttoseean increasing number of Doosan dozers in North America as more machines arrive at dealerships.

Doosan Infracore North America unveiled its first dozer at a media event last December in Arizona: the 10-metric-ton DD100. The pre-prototype machine gar nered significant interest from the media, and Doosan moved ahead with finalizing its first pilot machines.

In June of this year, Doosan shipped its first DD100 dozer from South Korea to North America. The machine arrived in August and was delivered to a customer in Pennsylvania. Shortly upon its arrival, the customerquicklyputthemachinetoworkat its topsoil production facility.

“It’s been an exciting 10 months since we announced our first dozer, then proceeded to manufacture our first DD100,” said Moo Young Park, engineering manager, Doosan Infracore North America. “We expect our dealers and customers to embrace the new Doosan dozers and to see more of them on job sites yet this year.”

Looking ahead to 2023, Doosan plans to offer a larger model — the DD130 — in North America. The 13-metric-ton model is expected to launch in Q1 next year.

DD100 Highlights

Doosan entered the North American dozermarketwithasmallerdozersize,com petinginthe140-hpandundercategory.The newDD100dozerisatthetopofitsclassfor operating weight and horsepower. Ideal for residential and light commercial construc tion, the dozer’s main task is fine grading.

“The under 140-horsepower size class presents the biggest opportunity for Doosan based on North American dozer sales vol ume,” Park said.

Setting the DD100 dozer apart from other manufacturers in the under 140-hp size class is the machine’s power-to-weight ratio. This design was intentional; Doosan planned to make a machine that can offer more power to the ground and superior tractive effort.

Productivity

Productivity is driven by the dozer’s 6way variable angle pitch blade. Customers can choose from two blade options: a stan dard 2.9 cubic yard blade or an optional 3.4 cubic yard capacity blade. The blade moves freely to lift, tilt and angle, and offers twoway mechanical adjustments to change the blade pitch to control how steeply the blade will dig into the ground. Operators can adjust the blade pitch from 54 to 58 degrees. Also available is a blade shake button for operators to quickly remove materials stuck

to the blade.

Technology

Advanced technologies in the new DD100 dozer deliver more precision to help operatorsmeetexactingspecifications.A2D grading system option is available to make precision grading easier, even for novice operators.

For further grading accuracy, Doosan offers a 3D machine guidance and machine control option in partnership with Trimble. The 3D system requires the installation of a second monitor in the cab and uses GPS technology for greater grading accuracy and ease of operation.

Electrohydrauliccontrolisstandard,mak ing the DD100 dozer easier to operate. Operatorscancustomizethecontrolstotheir individual preferences. More experienced operators can adjust the machine for finer control.

The DoosanCONNECT Telematics sys tem is a standard feature on the Doosan dozer, making it easy for customers to remotely monitor and maintain their machine. They can monitor the health, loca tion and productivity of the dozer from a user-friendly mobile app and website. The customer’sdealercanalsoseetheequipment status and notify them when it’s time for service to minimize machine downtime.

Visibility

One of the biggest differences between theDD100dozerandotherdozersisthevis ibility to the machine’s blade. The front engine compartment of the Doosan DD100 dozer offers a narrower design to make it easier for operators to see their work.

ï The precleaner is tucked away in the engine compartment to maximize front visi bility.

ï The electronic cooling system was

moved to the back of the dozer to further improve front visibility.

ï The cab’s low-profile front pillars pro vide maximum glass area ïAll-glassdoorsprovideafullviewofthe working environment.

“Visibility is the name of the game,” said Ray Trainor, co-owner of Ratoskey & Trainor. Trainor and his business partner, Rob Ratoskey, were the first to take posses sion of a Doosan dozer in NorthAmerica.

“In smaller machines, when you’re doing roadwaysandputtingstoneongrade,you’ve got to see what you’re doing, and the visibil ity in the Doosan dozer is good,” Trainor said.

Forfurthervisibilityandsafety,astandard rearview camera provides operators with an additional view of the dozer’s surroundings. Also standard are high-illumination LED lights and four premium wiper blades.

Operator Comfort

Doosan designed the dozer cab to offer best-in-class operator comfort. It starts with a smooth ride, due to an air-suspension arti ficial-leather seat, even when starting and stopping the dozer. The machine’s heating and air conditioning system is designed to keep operators comfortable in every season,

and front and door glass defrost vents help improve visibility.

A user-friendly, multilingual Doosan Smart Touch screen displays all important settings and information on one screen. Operators can easily read the touch screen, monitor critical machine functions and con trol machine settings, such as the rearview camera, heating and cooling, radio and Bluetooth wireless technology. Operators haveaccesstoahands-freeaudiosystemand can connect a Bluetooth device to play music. They also can answer phone calls using the hands-free mode.

Akeypad located to the right of the oper ator has buttons for the operator to control

the dozer’s wipers, air conditioning system, temperature control, fan speed, defrost, trav el alarm and working lamp. Adjacent to the keypad are a USB power socket and a 12V power socket for charging purposes.

For additional operator comfort, an adjustablearmrestcanbemovedupordown to a precise position that’s most convenient for the operator. The dozer’s cab has a sus pension system that dampens vibrations and provides protection against impact. The sys tem absorbs shocks and vibrations much more effectively than a conventional cab mount.

Fuel Efficiency

The Doosan DD100 dozer is powered by a 3.4-L D34 diesel engine and does not require the use of a diesel particulate filter (DPF) to meet current emissions standards. The same engine has been used in other Doosan machines and has performed well. Operators can select the dozer’s ECO mode toreducedailyfuelconsumptionupto5per cent without sacrificing grading perform ance. This fuel-saving feature lowers the pump power output when working in lower tractive conditions.

Additional fuel-saving features include

auto idle and auto engine shutdown. If the machine functions are not used for a prede termined period, the auto idle feature idles thedozerenginetoreducefuelconsumption. When the operator moves the controls, the dozer automatically returns to the previous throttle setting.

auto shutdown feature saves fuel and helps lower warranty hours. When the fea ture is enabled, the engine shuts down after it has been idling for a specified period.

shutdown occurs after five minutes of idling but can be set for longer periods by the operator using the Smart Touch display.

Versatility

Doosandozerscomestandardwithpiping for an optional ripper attachment.The ripper attachment features parallel linkage that helps maintain a constant angle to the ground regardless of the height. The attach ment can quickly break up hard, rugged materials prior to grading, and it can be used to install erosion control. Also available as anattachmentisatowingdrawbar,allowing operators to use the Doosan dozer to tow other equipment on a job site.

Durability

One of the dozer’s key features is its

undercarriage design. Doosan developed its dozerundercarriagesystemtohelplowerthe total cost of operation. The design includes both single- and dual-flange rollers for improved durability and long life.

Customers can choose from several track guards to enhance uptime protection. They include general-purpose and full guard options to fit the jobsite conditions. In addi tion, track shoe options are available to help distribute the load to the ground. Thinner tracks are used for rugged, rocky environ ments. A low-ground pressure option is available for sandy soil conditions.

Serviceability

An in-line precleaner helps improve filter life and is integrated with the air cleaner. It’s also more compact to fit in the smaller engine compartment. Self-cleaning and maintenance-free, the intake system can expel a variety of debris, including mud, snow, rain, leaves, sawdust and chaff.

Doosan designed its dozer undercarriage for convenience and cost-effective mainte nance. Areas of the undercarriage that natu rally experience greater wear and tear are easy to access. For example, a removable side panel provides access to an area to add grease to the undercarriage’s tension system.

Customers can order replacement parts through their local Doosan dealer.

To help minimize fuel-related issues, Doosanoffersafilter-typehigh-performance water separator, which captures moisture in the fuel and reduces impurities. Standard pre-filters and dual main filters achieve a high degree of purity that minimize fuel sys tem failures. The fuel filter water separator and the main fuel filter can easily be reached by lifting a panel on the front of the dozer.

Common, everyday maintenance items can be accessed from ground level, includ ing the following components:

ï Electronic main control valve

ï Diesel fill

ï Diesel exhaust fluid fill

ï Hydraulic oil fill

ï Fuel filter

ï Engine oil filter

ïAir cleaner

ï Battery

ï Windshield wash tank

When necessary, owners can tilt the dozer cabin to reach critical components. Even with the cab tilted, the dozer can be started while the machine is being diagnosed or repaired.

Doosan DD100 dozers are designed with a unique hydraulically controlled cooling

system and come standard with a reversible fan.Operatorscansetthefantoautomatical ly reverse at a predetermined time interval. The cooling system is in the rear of the machine instead of the front. This con tributes to better visibility to the blade from the operator’s point of view.

CatOffersCommandRemoteforDozers

To boost jobsite safety in hazardous dozing conditions, Caterpillar announcedtheexpansionofCommand remote machine operation to Cat D5, D6, and D7 Dozers.

Command for Dozing removes operators from the cab and offers remote operating from a safe distance in applications such as overburden/reclamation work, ripping overburden or leach pads, slurry pond dozing, and operation around haz ardous materials or unstable surfaces.

Next generation dozers are shipped from the factory remote ready, making field installation fast with only a few additional parts required. With Command fully integrated with the machine’selectronicandhydraulicsys tems, remote operation delivers quick response, smooth control and virtually no latency.

Companieshavetheoptionofequip ping dozers with line-of-sight (LOS) or non-line-of-sight (NLOS) operation, and a ground-level switch quickly tog gles between manual and remote dozer operation.To help improve jobsite pro ductivity, Command allows production to restart immediately following dis ruptive processes, such as blasting in quarry applications.

Beyond improving safe operation and increasing productivity, Command forDozingoffersapotentialsolutionto worker shortages and added training opportunities for newer operators. By allowing the operator to work outside the machine, Command opens oppor tunities to those with physical limita tionswhichpreventthemfrom climbing into the equipment. It can attract a new generation of worker while increasing the longevityofexperiencedoper ators.

Two PreciseOptions,Control

Portable and lightweight, the command console (LOS) allows workers to work out side of the cab while remaining on site and in direct visual contact with the dozer.Withitsrangereaching437yds., the console positions the user for opti mum visibility.

Requiring no on-site communica tions infrastructure, it is ideal for shortterm and emergency remote operation.

An ergonomic console layout features intuitive controls with ISO symbols that provides access to all dozer func tions,whileanLEDdisplayoffersclear readout of machine status.

The command station provides non-line-of-site operation from the com fort of an air-conditioned office on-site or many miles away, as distance is limited only by the capabilities of the wireless network.

Furthering operation simplicity, the console (LOS) system supports multi ple assist technologies the operator wouldhavefrominsidethecab,includ ingtractioncontrol,AutoCarryandsta bleblade.Unlockingwithanelectronic access card, the console can be config ured to control another machine equipped with Command by simply changingoutanRFIDchip.Itslithiumion battery provides a quick charge and long run times in varying ambient tem peratures.

Built-in safety features stop all dozer movements if the remote shutdown switchispressed,wirelesscommunica tion is lost, or the console is tilted more than 45 degrees.

The command station provides nonline-of-site operation from the comfort of an air-conditioned office on-site or manymilesaway,asdistanceislimited only by the capabilities of the wireless

network. By eliminating the fatigueinducing vibration of machine move ments in the cab, operators can work with less fatigue.

The configurable station features a similar feel to the cab with familiar controls, complete with pedals, joy sticks, adjustable seat, switches and storage. Multiple screen displays offer visuals from the left and right cutting edges, blade top-center and rearview that includes the ripper.

Beyond supporting assist technolo gies offered by the console (LOS), the command station (NLOS) offers com patibility with blade load monitor, slopeassistandGradewith3Dwiththe sameresponsetimeasinthecab.Users can easily switch to operating a differ ent command-equipped machine — dozer, wheel loader or excavator — from the same or different sites with virtuallynodowntimeforshiftchanges or for travel to the job site.

First Potain MDT 489 Tower Crane in N.A. Is Working in Madison, Wis.

The first erected Potain MDT 489 tower crane in North America is now at work on a construction site in Madison, Wis., near the state capitol. Manitowoc President and CEO Aaron Ravenscroft took a trip to meet with the crane’s owners — Nicholas, Nathanael and Mark Reynolds, of Reynolds Rigging and Crane Service — and watch the crane perform on the job site.

“We have recently purchased two MDT 489 cranes to complement our rental fleet. Our expectations have been surpassed with these cranes. They are easy and efficient to haul, fast to erect, and smooth to operate — features that have helped us complete work more efficiently,” Mark Reynolds said. “The flattop design has been very advantageous on a two-crane site. We look forward to continuing to employ these cranes to help us lead the competition and provide the best cranes available for our customers.”

The MDT 489 in Madison is building the Wilson Apartments development that has views of nearby Lake Monona. The project is led by Stevens Construction, a locally-based firm.

The Potain crane is configured with 178 ft. of height under the hook and a 180 ft. jib radius to deliver all the lifting power needed for the construction of the new residential building. The crane was selected for its 20,600 lbs. of tip capacity at 160 ft. to execute the concrete work required by the build.

Reynolds owns a fleet of Potain cranes, including an MDT 389, several MDT 489s and an MD 559. The company is proud to have a Potain-trained technician on staff to serve its customers.

laneineachdirectionforanextendedperiod of time, potentially causing three-to-eighthour backups. This rehab would have only extended the useful life of the bridge by about 10 years.”

Construction is on schedule, with the westboundbridgeexpectedtobecompleted in late spring 2023, and the entire project finished by the end of 2024. The contract price for the design-build project is $218.5 million.

“The Lunda Team, consisting of Lunda Construction Company as the lead contrac tor and Parsons Transportation Group Inc. serving as lead designer, is a very experi enced team that’s successfully delivered several notable projects,” said Lepper. “Lunda specializes in bridge construction, especially major river crossings.”

Lepper noted that motorists have not experienced any major delays.

“So far, traffic has been impacted for nighttime lane closures during rock hauling operations for construction access, and median shoulder strengthening to shift the eastbound and westbound lanes toward the median to allow construction traffic access to and from the site. The only other impact we’ve had are rolling roadblocks with the assistance of highway patrol during blasting operations.

“For the safety of the traveling public, trafficisslowedtoapproximately35mph,to allow a clear blast zone and the ability to clear the roadway of any debris that may have entered the lanes. Those impacts are normally once or twice a week for approxi mately 15 minutes. In the future, rolling roadblocks are likely to continue in the next several weeks. Nighttime lane closures are expected to resume for pavement recon struction and median work later this year.”

Lepper said MoDOT received positive feedback from a virtual public meeting regarding replacement of the bridge.

“Knowing MoDOT was eliminating the extensive rehab project that would cause three to eight-hour backups, the public has always been very positive about the project. During the meeting, learning that they were receiving two bridges each wide enough to carry four lanes of traffic for emergencies or futuremaintenanceworkandreceivingthree lanes in each direction from the UPRR to Rte. BB was received very well.”

According to Lepper, one of the biggest challenges on this project is the Missouri River.

“The water elevation fluctuates signifi cantly in short amounts of time. When con struction started, the river was very low and wouldnotallowbargemovement,theneight months into construction we saw it reach minor flood stage, which slowed our progressondrilledshafts.Theriverhassince gone back to a manageable level.”

Construction is progressing, with major progress being made on the substructure of

the westbound bridge and fill areas on both theeastandwestsideoftheriver.Workcon tinues on the remaining drilled shafts and pipe pile bents for the westbound bridge.

“Included in this work is tying steel cages forthedrilledshaftsandcapsonthepipepile bents and pouring the concrete caps.

Collapses Rarely Survivable; Cu. Yd. of Soil Equals 3,000 Lbs.

This year, the updated A10.12 excavation safety stan dard, Safety Requirements for Excavation, was approved. It details the design of an excavation plan and applies to all open excavations, including trenches. After 22 fatalities related to trenching were recorded, OSHA stepped up its excavation site inspection program.

OSHAcalledonallemployersengagedin trenching and excavation activities to act immediately “to ensure that required protec tionsarefullyinplaceeverysingletimetheir employees step down into or work near a trench.”

Doug Parker, assistant secretary for occu pational safety and health, said in a matter of seconds workers can be buried under thou sands of pounds of soil and rocks in an unsafe trench.

He wants to see the increase in the num ber of workers needlessly dying and suffer ing serious injuries in trenching incidents stopped.

“Every one of these tragedies could have been prevented had employers complied with OSHA standards,” said Parker. “There simply is no excuse for ignoring safety requirements to prevent trench collapses and cave-ins.”

The agency reported that 22 deaths in the first half of 2022 surpasses the total of 15 in 2021.

In June, two workers aged 20 and 39 died in Jarrell, Texas, when the unprotected trench more than 20 ft. deep collapsed upon them as they worked.

OSHA noted that trench shields sat unused beside the excavation. This incident prompted the agency to announce the enhancements.

To stress the dangers of disregarding fed eral workplace safety requirements, OSHA enforcement staff will consider every avail able tool at the agency’s disposal, said the agency.

“These actions will place additional emphasis on how agency officials evaluate penalties, including criminal referrals for federal or state prosecution to hold employ ers and others accountable.”

OSHA compliance officers will perform trench inspections nationwide and may stop by and inspect any excavation site during their daily duties.

Industry Gives Its Blessing

The National Utility Contractors Association (NUCA) marked this year’s Trench Safety Stand Down by reinforcing the idea that safety training is key to an employee’s daily activity.

The association believes safety training also is critical to a well-functioning utility construction job site.

“Time and time again, evidence shows that the key to significantly reducing the risksassociatedwithourindustryisemploy ee training and reinforcement,” said Mike Flowers, NUCA’s director for safety, train ing and education.

This year, according to the association, 23,000 workers employed by 345 compa nies on 1,978 job sites participated in a stand

downtrainingeventtheweekofJune20to24.

The goal of the event is to provide those who work in and around trenches and exca vationswithinformationaboutcurrentexca vation requirements and safety procedures.

OSHA and the North American Excavation Shoring Association (NAXSA) joined forces to host the Colorado Trench Safety Summit in early October.

The free event included classroom train ing, roundtable discussions and live demon strations.

A similar event took place in Southlake, Texas, with the North Texas NUCA chapter in September.

Earlythisyear,ANSIannouncedapproval of the updated A10.12 excavation safety standard,SafetyRequirementsforExcavation.

The standard details how to design an excavation plan, including responsibilities, training and duties, assessing underground utilities, water accumulation and stability of adjacent structures and protecting workers from falls, cave-ins and confined spaces.

It applies to all open excavations, includ ing trenches, made in the earth’s surface that require worker and/or property protection.

Defining Trench Safety

NUCA reported that OSHA’s standard 1926.650, Subpart P on trenching and exca vation requires protective systems for trenches that are 5 ft. or deeper.

The federal agency warns that trench col lapses are rarely survivable because a cubic yard of soil can weigh as much as 3,000 lbs.

“Trench hazards are well-known,” said OSHA, “yet far too many workers continue to be injured or killed during excavation work.”

The agency believes trench collapses, or cave-ins, are more likely than other excava tion-related incidents to result in worker fatalities.

“Itonlytakessecondstobecomeburiedin thousands of pounds of soil.”

But trench hazards can be controlled when employers act responsibly, train employees and follow federal standards.

OSHA lists steps contractors can take to keep excavation work safe:

ï Ensure there is a safe way to enter and exit the trench;

ï Trenches must have cave-in protection — remember to Slope, Shore, Shield;

ï Keep materials away from the edge of the trench;

ï Look for standing water or other envi ronmental hazards; and

ï Never enter a trench unless it is properly inspected

The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) warns that working in an unprotected trench is danger ous.

Ritchie Bros. Focuses On Aerial Equipment Trends in Oct. Report

With its October Market Trends Report, Ritchie Bros. takes a closer look at sales of key aerial equipment categories in North America, specifically boom lifts, scissor lifts and telehan dlers.

Traditionally the company sells more boom and scissor lifts than telehandlers, and that con tinues to be the case in 2022. In comparison to 2021, boom lift sales are relatively flat, while scissor lifts sales have seen a slight increase, and telehandlers a small decrease. In 2022, the com pany sold more than 9,600 boom lifts, scissor lifts and telehandlers in the United States and approximately 1,400 units in Canada.

"We'vesoldmorethan11,000boomlifts,scis sorlifts,andtelehandlersintheUnitedStatesand Canada this year," said Doug Olive, senior vice president, Ritchie Bros. "Aerial equipment is everywhere, on nearly every job site, so it's no surprisehowmuchtheseassetstradethroughour online auctions and marketplaces. In Q3 2022, aerialequipmentpricesintheUnitedStateswere up 3 percent at Ritchie Bros. year over year, while prices in Canada were up 4 percent."

Crews have already installed 24 4-ft. diameter pipe piles at six bent locations. They’ve also drilled and poured two 9-ft. diameterdrilledshaftsonthewestsideofthe riveranddrilledandpouredfour11-ft.diam eter drilled shafts. A strut and two columns have been poured on the bent on the west side of the river. Most of the rock fill has been blasted and placed on both the east and west side of the river for the roadway fill areas.

Lepper said excavation of rock from the east abutment adjacent to the Katy Trail required a great deal of planning.

“Duringblastingoftherock,greatcaution was used to protect the pedestrian traffic using the Katy Trail just below this area. We usedshortdurationclosuresoftheKatyTrail during the blast and clean-up of the area.

There are three open-ended Conex boxes placed on the Katy Trail, so we can keep pedestrian traffic moving safely when we begin construction activities in this area. Temporary closures will be used when any work above the trail takes place.”

The initial blasting was used to remove a significant hill of rock.

“This gave us the area needed to begin excavation for construction of the east abut ment. Additionally, we will be drilling near the Katy Trail for bent 15 drilled shafts.”

Geotechnical testing for the river bridge included boring location plans, subsurface profiles, borings, cone penetration test (CPT) sounding logs, standard penetration test (SPT), seismic analysis, liquefaction analysis, axial resistance analysis, lateral resistance analysis, strength limit bearing resistance analysis, core photos and labora tory testing.

“Thesetestsgiveustheinformationneed ed to design a stable foundation for the bridge. The information also allows us to check soil or slope stability.This assessment is essential for the safety and sustainable development of roadway fill areas.”

Approximately 350,000 cu. yds. of mate rials will be moved during construction. Significant work remaining includes com pletion of the drilled shafts; pouring caps; installation of concrete and steel girders; forming and pouring the deck; and pouring the traffic barriers on the westbound bridge.

“Another key task will be finishing the grading and beginning paving on both the east and west side of the river bridge,” said Lepper. “There also will be median work throughout the corridor installing new drainage, along with the addition grading and paving a third land from Rte. BB to the railroad bridge on the west end of the proj ect. Once these are completed, traffic will be diverted to the newly constructed bridge. Then the existing bridge can be demolished,

and construction can begin on the eastbound bridge.”

Crews also will be keeping a close eye on the weather.

“The rain that we’ve had does affect the river elevation, which in turn slows some workonbridgeelements.However,wehave plenty of work outside the river area that continues during these short times of river fluctuation.We are already making plans for work this winter to protect our concrete pours through the colder months.

“The river always provides us with chal lenging issues. We saw a near record low in theMissouriRiverwhenwestartedourcon struction, which did not allow the barges to float. There were several barges that were actually grounded on the bank during this time.”

Main equipment on the job includes vari ous loaders, skid steers, telehandlers, exca vators, tugboats, small work boats and barges. A Manitowoc MLC300 386-ton lat tice boom crawler crane with a VPC MAX attachment on a 72-ft. by 180-ft. by 10-ft. barge also will play a critical role.

The key is the variable position counter weight, which allows crews to pick heavier loads while on a barge, without the use of a ringer or larger barge platform.Two 300-ton Manitowoc 2250s lattice boom crawler cranes will eventually spend time on barges to set the precast concrete girders over the scour hole.

Othermachineryincludesa275-tonTerex HC275 lattice boom crawler crane on a 60ft. by 160-ft. by 10-ft. barge; a 230-ton Manitowoc 888 lattice boom crawler crane for dock wall support; a 90-ton Grove

GRT8100 rough terrain crane; an APE D125-42 diesel pile hammer for the 48-in. pipe piles; two ICE 50B vibratory hammers (including one with a dual jaw setup for vibrating in the pipe piles and a single jaw setup for sheet piling for the dock wall); and an ICE 110C vibratory hammer with a quad jaw beam setup for driving and extracting drilled shaft casings.

In addition, a Liebherr LB45 drill rig for drilling 9-ft. and 11-ft. diameter shafts is required, along with a Bidwell 4800 bridge deck finisher; 16 10-ft. by 40-ft. by 7-ft.

Shugart sectional barges to make two 80-ft. by 80-ft. floating platforms with power spud packs that can be pinned togeth er for a 80-ft. by 160-ft. platform to store

concrete girders.

Main materials consist of concrete, steel girders, concrete girders, steel rebar, asphalt, rock fill, pipe and drop inlets.

“To this point, working on getting access to the river and access on the river has been the most time-consuming,” said Lepper.

“This work, although not part of the final bridge construction, is essential for both material and equipment deliveries. Because this work is in an environmentally sensitive area, great caution was used during the con struction of our access road to limit the amount of disturbance and to be good stew ards of our environment.”

For Lepper and the rest of the team, the hourswillbelong,butworththeinvestment.

“This project is very exciting, especially when thinking about how the bridge will serve not only the citizens of Missouri, but also freight and travel for people in all the lower 48 states. We’re working to make the entire corridor safer for many more years to come.”

Dealer Emphasizes Trench Safety; Warns of High Fatality Rate

The walls can collapse suddenly and without warning. When this happens, workers do not have time to move out of the way.

“Asmallamountofdirtmaynot seem dangerous, but can weigh more than 3,000 pounds — the weight of a compact car,” said the organization. “This small amount of dirt is enough to fatally crush and suffocate workers.”

Like OSHA, safety experts at NIOSH warn that “workers should never enter a trench that does not have a protective system in place.”

The protective system should be designedandinstalledbyacompe tent person, someone who can identify hazards and is authorized to correct them.

Competent person training is availablefrommanysources,noted NIOSH, including insurance com panies, trade associations, labor unionsandequipmentmanufacturers.

The best way to prevent trench collapse and trenching fatalities is to use other methods, when possi ble, said NIOSH.

Some options include direction al boring, relining the pipe, pipe ramming and utility tunneling and pipe jacking.

Robotscanbeusedonconstruc tion sites to transport, line and join largepipestoprotectworkersfrom serious injuries.

Robotsmayalsoreducetheneed for pipe layers and other helpers to work at the bottom of the trench, according to the organization.

Trenchesmustbeinspectedbya knowledgeable person, be free of standing water and atmospheric hazards and have a safe means of entering and exiting prior to allow ing a worker to enter.

“OSHA stands ready to assist any employer who needs help to comply with our trenching and excavationrequirements,”Assistant Secretary Parker added. “We will conduct outreach programs in all of our 10 regions to help ensure any employer who wants assis tance gets it. The stakes are too important.”

In fact, OSHA’s On-Site Consultation Program for smalland medium-sized businesses will help address trench-related illness es and injuries in workplaces.

The agency also urges workers tocontacttheirlocalOSHAorstate

planofficeiftheiremployerrequires working in or beside trenches that are not sloped, shored or shielded, and are 5 or more feet deep.

Additional Advice

Caterpillar dealer Blanchard Machinery warns that the fatality rate for excavating is 112 percent higher than general construction.

“Trenching is a dangerous job,” said the West Columbia, S.C.based,company.“Butyoucanpro tect yourself and your team from injury with the right precautions. Anticipate the risks before they become hazards and be proactive with these trench safety tips.”

ï Understand proper trenching practices

Blanchard reiterates that the site managershouldimplementtrench ing techniques based on soil, trench dimensions and other sitespecific factors.

“Never work in a trench without supporting the sides with a trench

box, shoring, or combination of sloping and benching methods,” said Blanchard.

ïFollowsite-specifictrenching safety guidelines

Every work site is different, noted the company.

“Accountforenvironmentaland atmospheric conditions, soil type, trench dimensions and the work you’re doing in creating site-spe cific safety guidelines.”

According to Blanchard, these rules should be safety standards across all trench settings. Never enter a trench with standing water oraccumulatingwaterwithouttak ing proper precautions to drain and preventmoreflow.Workersshould not work underneath suspended loadshandledbyheavymachinery. All trenches require safe and sepa rate entry and exit points.

Minimize the chance of falling debris and struck-by injuries by keeping materials and equipment at least 2 ft. away from the trench

edgeandusingretainingdevicesas needed.

Always stay aware of your sur roundings and implement visual and audible warning systems like signs and alarms to know when equipment is in use or nearby.

“Failure to do so could result in injury and costly damage or fees,” warns Blanchard.

ï

Test and inspect trenches regularly

Trenches must be inspected before work begins each day to check for hazardous fumes, oxy genlevels,wateraccumulationand environmental changes.

The inspector should reinspect trenchesafterenvironmentalchanges and natural events, like nearby blasting work or heavy rain.

ï Know the soil, environment Soiltypeandqualityaresomeof the most significant factors to con sider when designing a trench.

Always conduct utility line tests beforetrenching.Markgas,electri cal, water and other lines with cor rect signage and barriers before operating any equipment.

Plus, a competent person should conduct atmospheric testing in all trenches 4 ft. or deeper to ensure proper oxygen levels. Also, sites should have emergency rescue equipment available at all times, according to the Cat dealer.

ï Use a trench box — but don’t rely on it

Trenchboxesareinplacetopro tect workers in the event of a cavein and cannot always prevent the cave-in itself.

Proper barrier placement should include shoring and worker barri ers with enough force to be greater than the force coming from the trench walls.

Avoid using trench boxes for greater depths than the manufac turer has rated them for and never work inside a damaged barrier.
