The Port of Albany, located in upstate New York, is an important transportation center 160 mi. west of Boston and 124 nautical mi. from

New York City.

Sitting astride the Hudson River, the port has 5,400 ft. of wharf, houses machinery capable of heavy lifting of cargo from ships and all manner of railroad connections and warehouse space. The river is 700 ft. across and 31 ft. deep at

Albany.

The Port’s location and capabilities have positioned it as the center of an important wind energy project. Two parcels of land consisting of approximately 100 acres will be the site of a see ALBANY page 24

How to Exploit Benefits of Estimating, Takeoff Software

By Lucy Perry CEG CORRESPONDENT

An erroneous project quote can cost a contractor plenty. If an estimator is wrong on the figures or off on the timeline, it can be corrected, but at what cost? The price of materials may cost the company in profits, and mistakes can cause the client to lose faith in the contractor. The answer may be found in your project management technology — estimating and takeoff software, to be exact.

Estimating and takeoff are just two aspects of a project bid, and it’s important to know the differences between the two.

With estimating software, a contractor can provide the client with more accurate figures a lot sooner.

A construction takeoff is an extensive list of material amounts and costs for a project. All materials including raw and manufactured items are accounted for before a construction takeoff is considered a success.

A takeoff software program allows the contractor to provide the client with a morecomplete construction plan. Of course, takeoff and estimating software aren’t the only two software options for construction businesses, said Collin Couey of softwareadvice.com.

Other construction software options will integrate with project scheduling, project management or even accounting software.

Which type of software is the most practical investment for your construction business? Do you need both?

“It all comes back to knowing what issues you need your software to solve in order to find the best software solution for your business,” Couey said.

Getting Estimate Right

Though the client understands an estimate is not the final number, if it’s “way off the mark,” you could lose your credibility as a contractor.

Couey said estimating inaccuracies can be the result of incorrect pricing data, faulty schedules or manual errors.

Manual estimating requires extensive research. Project details and client needs have to be figured into pricing lists before numbers can be set. The estimating phase is a time-eater when you’re flying without technology and can cost your company if the client rejects your bid.

“If you’re facing these issues and are constantly worried that your quotes aren’t accurate, it’s time to consider using construction estimating software.”

Estimating software allows the user to formulate the exact cost of project material quantities and labor, said Couey.

“What might have taken you hours to put together will instead take minutes,” he said. Some estimating software can even scan material costs from a large database from your area of the country. The user simply provides the system with a zip code or geographical location, and the technology pro-

vides them with the best price options.

Couey added that this process not only saves the contractor time, it also ensures they’re able to provide an accurate estimate as quickly as possible. Using estimating software can increase the accuracy of your construction quotes and provide your business

an edge over your competitors. Plus, the quick turnaround “will net you more work and happier clients,” he said.

The user no longer has to worry about complex codes or formulas because the software will do all the calculations for them.

“Also, if your client wants to add or subtract something [in] the initial bid, you can make adjustments on the fly,” said Couey.

SmoothEnsuringTakeoff

The size and scope of a project can determine how simple or complex the takeoff phase of a project will be, said Meghan Townley of Buildertrend.

“Using takeoff software is one of the best ways to start your construction estimate,” she said.

Townley believes the technology can improve accuracy, save time and money, increase efficiency and give the contractor a competitive edge.

“At a time when material costs are at a premium, the margin for error is small,” she said. “It’s essential to ensure the measurements for your construction projects are as comprehensive and accurate as possible.”

see SOFTWARE page 94

The process of choosing whether you need estimating, or takeoff, or both forms of software, boils down to knowing what issue or issues you need your software to solve.

Estimating software allows the user to formulate the exact cost of project material quantities and labor.

Baltimore Leaders Propose $4B Plan to Build Two Regional Transit Corridors

A proposal to reimagine Maryland’s long-awaited Red Line transportation system could connect Howard County to eastern Baltimore County as part of a 25-year regional plan released by the Baltimore Metropolitan Council (BMC).

According to a May 29 report by Maryland Matters, a news site that covers the state’s government and politics, the plan also includes a multi-billion-dollar transit corridor connecting Towson to Baltimore City.

“The Baltimore Regional Transportation Board is concerned about the lack of progress in the region,” said Regina Aris, assistant director of transportation planning for the council, during a recent virtual briefing. “They see a lot of money going to Washington, D.C., area jurisdictions, [including] a lot of money going to the Purple Line.”

A long-range plan for the central Maryland region dedicates nearly $4 billion to two major transit lines, according to the online news source.

The East-West Transit Corridor system is one of more than 90 major transit routes that are a part of the council’s Resilience 2050 plan. The document highlights a 25-year plan of regional road and transit projects in the central Maryland region.

The BMC is made up of leaders from seven major jurisdictions:AnneArundel, Baltimore, Carroll, Harford, Howard and Queen Anne’s counties, as well as Baltimore City. The panel is mandated by federal law to develop transit and transportation plans based on population and other trends.

“Planning the transportation system for 20-plus years is a complex task,” explained Zach Kaufman, a senior transportation planner at the council. “We consider many factors and trends that may affect the regional transportation network in the future. Planning for the future requires forecasts of where people might live and work over the time period covered” by the plan.

Over those two decades, the population of the Baltimore region is projected to grow by 358,000 people or about 13 percent. Concurrently, the number of households in the region is expected to increase by 15 percent, with the result being smaller household sizes.

The region also is expected to add 374,000 jobs, an increase of about 26 percent, Maryland Matters noted.

The cost estimates for the proposed transportation corridor projects are based on projected available funding over the next quarter century.

Huge Costs to Be Spread Over 25 Years

The BMC plan includes 56 road and 36 transit projects — all considered priorities for governments in the region — totaling more than $70 billion over the 25-year period, according to Kaufman.

Each of the road projects involves widening or improvements to existing thoroughfares, he said.

Projects in the proposal include:

• An express bus line connecting Columbia to the National SecurityAgency (NSA), nearAnnapolis, at a cost of $45 million.

• A $147 million interchange along Interstate 695 to support the redevelopment of the Sparrows Point area of southeastern Baltimore County.

• Replacing 95 percent of the existing Maryland Transit Administration (MTA) bus fleet with zero emission vehicles by 2050. In the first phase, the state is looking to spend almost $1.6 billion to replace 50 percent of its 760-vehicle fleet by 2030. A second phase would bring the total to 95 percent at

an added cost of more than $2.2 billion. The expenditure includes buying new buses and building charging facilities.

In an initial phase, officials envision the development of an East-West Transit corridor. A second phase would include a north-south transit corridor.

The East-West project is the heir to the Red Line light rail project killed in 2015 by then-Gov. Larry Hogan (R).

The 14.1-mi. light rail project would have connected Bayview Hospital in East Baltimore to Woodlawn in western Baltimore County.

But current Gov. Wes Moore, a Democrat who took office in January, has promised to bring back the project.

He said an east-west transit system would connect underemployed areas of the Baltimore region to job centers and has tied the efforts to his focus on social and economic justice and reducing childhood poverty.

Moore and Maryland Senate President Bill Ferguson, DBaltimore City, and other officials have at times referred to the future project as both the Red Line and more generically an east-west transportation system.

Details On Proposed Efforts Are Hard to Come By

So far, though, only scant details about it have been made available, said Maryland Matters.

The regional transportation plan offers only broad strokes for a project expected to commence between 2028 and 2039.

“There are several major transit projects that were submitted by the [MTA],” said Aris, before adding that the MTA is not more specific with its plans at this point because the agency is currently in a planning phase and does not yet know what type of alignment or what kind of mode it will use, such as light rail, rapid bus, express bus, etc.

“So, there are reasons why some of the projects aren’t better defined at this point, but it’s a long-range plan,” she said. “We do update it every four years. Hopefully, there will be better descriptions [in the future] and definitely by the time they move into the short-range document for the Transportation Improvement Program.”

The transit plan includes alternatives for an up to a 17-mi.long rail line connecting eastern Baltimore County to destinations west of the city that could include Woodlawn or Ellicott City. Additionally, the route would take commuters through Baltimore City.

The exact path of the project is yet to be determined and it is unlikely it will follow the path of the original Red Line project because of development over the last eight years. It is also unclear whether the project will use light rail, as envisioned in the original Red Line plan, or a less costly rapid bus service.

The projected price tag is based on an average per mile cost of the seven potential corridors identified in a 2022 study.

The BMC also wants to build a north-south transit corridor connecting central Baltimore County to Baltimore City. This 14-mi. project would also connect Towson to the city, while some proposals extend as far north as Lutherville and as far south as Port Covington. The corridor’s path, though, has not been decided and officials are not sure if it will use light rail or rapid bus.

The council estimates the effort would cost more than $2 billion. Right now, construction is not slated to begin until sometime between 2040 and 2050. 

Recent SCOTUS Ruling May Herald Faster

Transportation Project Approvals

The U.S. Environmental ProtectionAgency’s (EPA) campaign to regulate all U.S. ditches hit another roadblock May 25. The U.S. Supreme Court agreed with theAmerican Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) and the National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association (NSSGA) that the agency exceeded its authority in developing new wetlands regulations.

The decision potentially means EPA will need to rewrite its “Waters of the United States (WOTUS)” rule, which has led to permitting delays for transportation projects.

At issue in Sackett vs. EPAwas whether the agency could require a permit for any area with a “significant nexus” to a navigable waterbody, such as a river, lake or stream. The EPA never defined “significant nexus,” causing confusion for the entire transportation construction industry.

The Court called the “significant nexus” test “particularly implausible” and held the EPA has “no statutory basis to impose it.”

In their brief to the Court, ARTBA and NSSGA critiqued the “significant nexus” test, noting it has “no inherent limiting principles” and empowers federal agencies to assert federal jurisdiction “well beyond the limits set by Congress.”

ARTBA and NSSGA maintained that defining WOTUS in such an expansive way improperly creates permit obligations for features such as roadside ditches, which serve the necessary safety function of collecting water during and after rain events. This type of overregulation serves only to delay critical infrastructure improvements and increases costs without providing any environmental benefits, the groups say.

“Today’s Supreme Court decision removes un-necessary and un-supportable impediments to transportation improvements across the country,” said ARTBA President and CEO David Bauer. “With Sackett as a guide, we urge the EPA to pursue common sense strategies that complement our nation’s infrastructure and environmental goals.”

“Today’s opinion in Sackett v EPA is a victory for our industry and is a major step towards a more reasonable definition of WOTUS, which our members have struggled with for years and was exacerbated by the premature and confusing Biden administration rule. With the end of significant nexus, we hope that the agencies heed this decision and work for a truly durable rule,” said NSSGA President and CEO Michael Johnson.

“A clearer WOTUS definition is necessary for our industry to provide the materials needed to build and modernize our country’s infrastructure in an environmentally friendly manner.”

ARTBA and NSSGA have been working together on the issue of CWA jurisdiction since 2005, along with other national association coalition allies. The groups also have been involved in federal district court litigation on the WOTUS rule since 2015. With the clarity provided by Sackett decision in hand, the groups will continue their efforts to repeal the WOTUS rule and work towards a clear definition of the CWA’s reach. 

Five Reasons Construction Job Sites Are Going Electric

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

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

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

distant future at ConExpo-Con/AGG 2023. According to Knight, there are five main reasons why equipment end users in the construction industry are strongly considering investing (or already have invested) in electric machinery. They are:

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

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

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

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

4. Carbon credits and offsets — Carbon credits, also known as carbon allowances, work like permission slips for emissions. When a company buys a carbon credit, usually from the government, they gain permission to generate one ton of CO2 emissions. When one company removes a unit of carbon from the atmosphere as part of their nor-

mal business activity, they can generate a carbon offset. Other companies can then purchase that carbon offset to reduce their own carbon footprint.

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

There is every reason to believe the electric vehicles and electric equipment will continue to develop and improve over time, said Knight, thus making a greater level of adoption even more likely in the very near future. According to the Terbine CEO, the architectures of electric vehicles are going to even higher voltages. The higher the voltage, he explained, the less current is needed for a given amount of wattage. That also means less heat. And, while voltages are very good now, they are expected to improve significantly in the coming years.

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

Pittsburgh Bridge Collapse Spurs Call for Corrosion Checks

Investigators looking into the 2022 collapse of a Pittsburgh bridge want transportation officials nationwide to examine more than 10,000 other spans in the United States with similar construction to ensure they do not have the same kind of corrosion that was found on that city’s Fern Hollow Bridge.

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) said in a report released May 18 that drainage problems on the weathered steel bridge that failed allowed the metal legs to deteriorate over time. It also found that for years maintenance needed to clear the debris, dirt and leaves that were causing the problem at the Fern Hollow Bridge site was not properly done, the Associated Press reported, even though inspectors noted the issue.

Rust that caused the deterioration of the Pittsburgh bridge’s steel legs and allowed holes to form in the structure was noted on every inspection done since 2005, including one completed just four months before the Fern Hollow Bridge fell into a ravine on Jan. 28, 2022.

Work was done in 2009 to clear the debris clogging the bridge’s drainage system, but that was not repeated in the years since even after inspectors noted on all reports between 2011 and 2021 that the drains had become

clogged again.

Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) spokesperson Alexis Campbell said in a statement that the agency is still reviewing the NTSB report, and the state will continue cooperating with the investigation. Last fall, PennDOT issued a safety bulletin focused on the maintenance issues with these steel bridges in response to the NTSB’s preliminary findings.

“Safe, reliable infrastructure is a top priority of the [Gov. Josh] Shapiro administration, and we are committed to ensuring Pennsylvanians and all motorists can travel across the Commonwealth safely,” Campbell said. “To that end, PennDOT remains proactive in its review, analysis and maintenance of its bridges.”

Feds Urge States to Properly Maintain Steel Bridges

The Pittsburgh bridge span that fell last year dropped a bus and four cars some 100 ft. into a ravine, injuring several people just hours before President Joe Biden was sched-

uled to visit the city to promote his massive infrastructure law. The span carried Forbes Avenue over Frick Park, Fern Hollow Creek and Tranquil Trail.

A new bridge opened to traffic last

developing a protective patina that would have kept the corrosion at bay. The federal agency’s investigators looked at 10 other steel-framed bridges in Pennsylvania and found similar maintenance problems, although none were as severe as what was discovered at the Fern Hollow Bridge.

It is unclear how widespread these issues are nationwide, but the NTSB wanted to urgently call them to bridge owners’ attention even though it has not completed its investigation of the Pittsburgh bridge collapse.

The NTSB said in its report that it is critical for bridge owners — usually cities and states — to clear any “accumulation of water and debris on bridges with weathering steel components.”

December after its design and construction were fast-tracked.

The NTSB said that these types of steelframe bridges can last for decades if they are properly maintained.

In the Pittsburgh case, however, the drainage issues prevented the steel from

The agency wants the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to help bridge owners identify similar problems and complete the needed bridge safety work. In addition, the FHWA will review the NTSB recommendations and work with bridge owners to carefully study inspection reports to decide what needs to be done. 

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

“Safe, reliable infrastructure is a top priority of the [Gov. Josh] Shapiro administration, and we are committed to ensuring Pennsylvanians and all motorists can travel across the Commonwealth safely.”

StuyvesantCoveParkReopensWithNewRecreationAreas

NYC Department of Design and Construction (DDC)

Commissioner Thomas Foley and NYC Economic Development Corporation

(NYCEDC)

Executive Vice President and Chief Infrastructure Officer Josh Kraus joined elected officials and community leaders May 31 to open the northern section of the new Stuyvesant Cove Park along the East River in Manhattan between East 20th Street and East 23rd Street.

Theremainderofthepark,from East 18th Street to East 20th Street,willopenlaterthissummer.

The park is the second section of East Side Coastal Resiliency (ESCR) to open to the public.The original Stuyvesant Cove Park closed in late-2020 when construction began on ESCR and the roughly 1,400-ft.-long park has beenrebuiltwithnewplantingand seating areas, new paths and railings as well as a new floodwall and flood gates that are part of ESCR’s flexible flood protection system.

A newly rebuilt section of the Manhattan Greenway also has beenaddedontheothersideofthe park’s floodwall and new lighting has been added under the FDR Drive near the park. Two new flood gates have been installed, a swinging gate at East 23rd Street which is 42 ft. long and weighs 16 tonsandaslidinggateatEast20th Street which is 77 ft. long and weighs 47.5 tons.

The gates are designed to remain open to allow continuous access to the waterfront but will be shut before future storm or flood events. Eventually 18 gates total will be installed under ESCR.

“Preserving and enhancing public spaces with waterfront views, must be an objective for all coastal resiliency projects,” said Deputy Mayor of Operations Meera Joshi. “The opening of this phase of ESCR comes at a time when residents will benefit from its design the most, and not just because it’s the start of hurricane season, but also because the warm weather is here.”

“New York City’s newest park serves a dualpurpose,helpingtheCityrespondtoclimatechangeandthethreatofstormsandrising seas while also being a world-class waterfront recreation area,” said Foley.

“Stuyvesant Cove Park is now integrated with 1,400 feet of new floodwalls and two new flood gates that can be closed when

needed to protect the 128,000 people who live in the area that will be protected by East Side Coastal Resiliency. The design truly is the most advanced in the country for flood protection projects that also maintain waterfront access and provide leisure and exercise areas.”

“The opening of the northern part of Stuyvesant Cove Park furthers the Adams Administration’s commitment to expanding and improving our public realm across New York City,” said New York City Economic Development Corporation President and CEO Andrew Kimball. “These much needed renovations will not only provide improved outdoor spaces, but they will also add flood protections for the surrounding community.

“Continued public realm investments like Stuyvesant Cove Park are part of our commitment to making New York City a great

place to live, work and play.”

“East Side Coastal Resiliency, spanning fromMontgomeryStreettoEast25thStreet, protects a diverse community of more than 110,000 New Yorkers from the extreme weatherbeingdeliveredbyourchangingclimate,” said New York City Chief Climate Officer Rohit T. Aggarwala. “With the start of hurricane season upon us, I thank our partners at DDC for completing this complex stage of the work which also provides the community with a rebuilt Greenway and new lighting, plantings, paths and benches.”

“New York City is leading complex, ambitious work in a dense environment to protectNewYorkersagainstrisingsealevels and more intense storms while reimagining open space and our relationship to the water,” said Victoria Cerullo, acting executive director of the Mayor’s Office of Climate & Environmental Justice. “The

opening of the second public section of the East Side Coastal Resiliency project, with the innovative partnership of Solar One, is animportantmilestoneaswehead into the summer and for many years to come.”

“Stuyvesant Cove Park is a beloved green space near and dear to me and many in the community,” said City Council Majority Leader Keith Powers. “As summer begins, I am pleased to see it reopen with millions of dollars’ worth of upgrades, including a new flood wall and gate. These critical investments will keep over 100,000 New Yorkers safe from floods and rising sea levels as we confront the realities of climate change.”

“The communities of the East Side are on the frontlines of the climate crisis, and I am proud to stand with colleagues as critical flood protection improvements are unveiled at Stuy Cove Park. This ribbon cutting represents an important milestone in an ambitious resilience project that will provide flood protection for more than 110,000 New Yorkers and can serve as a national model. I commend the Department of Design and Construction and NYCEDC on their steadfast commitment to protecting vulnerable communities and enhancing waterfront access on the East Side for generations to come,” said Councilmember Carlina Rivera.

“Asglobaltemperaturescontinue to rise, we know the frequency and intensity of flooding events will increase. New infrastructure should not only increase coast resiliency but must also focus on an essential quality of life issue; access to open space. The newly opened Stuyvesant Cove Park gives residents access to new and improved park space, while also serving to protect the community from future storms. I applaud the work that has been done on Stuy Cove Park, and hope it canserveasamodelforfutureinfrastructure around the city,” said State Senator Kristen Gonzalez.

“New Yorkers deserve a coastline as resilient as its people,” said Congressman Jerry Nadler. “I commend DDC, EDC and its partners on the reopening of Stuyvesant Cove Park North, now equipped with new floodwalls and flood gates that will provide climate resilient open space along the East Side’s waterfront to

Crews Ready Land for Wind Tower Manufacturing Facility

manufacturing facility that will construct massive wind tower components. The towers when completed will stand 450 ft. tall, approximately the size of a 34-story building. The wind towers will be outfitted with huge propellor blades 150 ft. long.

The massive size of the tower components, too large to be transported by truck or train, will be shipped down the Hudson River by barge to the Atlantic Ocean. The towers will be erected on a rocky shelf on the ocean floor, 10-20 mi. out to sea.

The buildings and company will be one of the first offshore wind tower manufacturing facilities in the country. In addition, the com-

pany, a joint venture of Marmen/Welcon will provide hundreds of manufacturing jobs and give the local economy a boost. The manufacturing space will use four buildings in Bethlehem, N.Y., and a fifth building will be in the Port.

The Port ofAlbany owns the property and is working with Empire Wind, a joint venture of Equinor and BP.

New York State has been a strong proponent of renewable energy, including solar, geothermal and wind. The state has welcomed the project.

“The Port is unusual in that it is located on a body of water suitable to move the large sections of the equipment and towers,” said

Port ofAlbany CEO Richard Hendrick. “It is also located close to parcel of land large enough to build the manufacturing facility. The is a once-in-a-generation type of project.”

Preparing the Ground

The manufacturing facility will be located on Beacon Island. Site preparation began in 2022 with clearing the land, grubbing and earthwork. Roddy Yagan is managing the project.

“The island was historically created using fill from river dredging,” said Yagan.

The biggest job so far has been bringing in one million tons of crushed stone and

embankment to surcharge the site. These heavy stone piles will compact the soil and settle for several months before the foundations can be built.

Delivering massive amounts of stone on a property that already has industrial deposits of coal ash has caused some concern.

“We are required to monitor and control dust,” said Yagan. “We want to make sure none of that ash is kicked up and leaves the site, so we have air monitors to help us keep that to a minimum.”

Once permitting was completed, William J. Keller & Sons moved in to import and

Hoffman Equipment Showcases Volvo Electric Product

Hoffman Equipment hosted a Volvo electric equipment demonstration event June 1 at the dealership’s main location in Piscataway, N.J. There, contractors from around the area had the opportunity to not only learn about how Volvo Construction Equipment’s new electric models can help them do their jobs efficiently, productively and quietly, but also to get behind the controls of several different models.

“The message we are trying to send to our customers is not only technical information about the machinery itself — the advantages of electric vs. diesel power — but, more importantly, how Volvo has become the leader among all construction equipment manufacturers in the rapidly expanding electric-powered machine segment,” said Tim Watters, president of Hoffman Equipment. “And, if Volvo has staked that leadership, then, we also need to be the leader among distributors.”

He added that Hoffman Equipment wants its customers in New Jersey, New York and eastern Pennsylvania to understand that if they are in the market for a top-shelf electric machine to use on their job sites, either for a specific application where electric machines may work better than diesels, or simply because they want to run a more eco-friendly operation, Volvo and Hoffman Equipment have the best available models.

One of the star attractions at Hoffman Equipment’s demo day was Volvo’s new EC230 excavator, the first medium size, in-house designed electric excavator in the industry. The 27-ton machine is currently being rolled out in the United States, although it has been for sale in Europe for the

past year or so, according to Watters.

It is powered by four 66 kW lithium-ion battery packs, resulting in zero direct emissions, less noise, reduced maintenance and lower total cost of ownership.

The Volvo excavator publicly displayed at Hoffman Equipment on June 1 had only arrived in the Piscataway store the day before and was one of only seven EC230s in the country at the time, but “another boat load of them is on its way” to the United States, Watters said.

“The EC230 is a 600-volt excavator, a commercially available machine that nobody else has in that size.”

The mid-size excavator joins a stable of Volvo electric models that include several smaller machines being marketed in the United States, including three compact excavators,

two compact wheel loaders and an asphalt roller due to come to market this fall.

Dan Hankinson, a technician of Hoffman Equipment, said that in the brief time the dealership has been marketing the Volvo electric machines, no issues have been reported with them.

“All the guys in the yard here are Level 4 technicians, so we can decommission a machine if it needs any kind of major repairs,” he said. “The only difference with the Volvos is that the diesel engines have been replaced with electric ones. Performing diagnostics is a little different now because we must read amperages and things like that, and they have some hydraulic features, but besides that, everything else is the same. It’s just new technology.”

Volvo Partners With Mobile Battery Maker

Also on hand at the Hoffman Equipment event was Ray Gallant, vice president of product management of Volvo, to explain the capabilities of the company’s electric construction equipment. In addition, he answered questions from contractors and operators about the brand’s electric machines and reliance on rechargeable batteries.

One of his key topics was Volvo’s use of a Voltstack 30k portable power station to charge a piece of construction equipment in the field. The unit is made by Portable Electric, a Canadian manufacturer partnering with Volvo to provide its customers with Voltstack charging stations.

“Here, we have the Voltstack hooked up to an electric car and to a Volvo electric machine to show that it is charging them both the same way using identical protocols,” he said during the demonstration. “There are 80 kilowatt hours [kWh] of storage in the portable power unit. Volvo’s compact excavator has a 20 kWh battery and the loader has 40 kWh in its battery, meaning the power station will charge two Volvo loaders or four small excavators a day.”

The Voltstack has two alternating current (AC) charging ports, which makes the unit a slow, Level-2 charger, Gallant noted, from which a contractor can draw the power needed to run his or her job site, including lights, computers and cell phones, in addition to the Volvo excavators and wheel loaders.

“We are also working with Portable Electric to produce a fast-charge version of the Voltstack, so instead of an AC charger, it would be a direct current [DC] charge from battery to battery,” he said.

Turning Skeptics Into Believers

technology’s skeptics to see its benefits, both to them and the planet.

What tends to pique the interest of oldschool construction professionals when they check out these more technologically advanced machines, Watters was asked at the demo day event. Are they surprised to learn the comparable power of the electrics to the diesels, or that the length of time needed to charge an electric Volvo wheel loader is lower than what they may have heard?

“I would say that it probably has more to do with a specific application that drives them to say, ‘Hey, that could work for us,’” he said. “If, as a contractor, you are working on a job inside, like interior demolition, tunnel work, a transfer station — that type of work — electric obviously makes more sense than diesel. The companies that perform that work also have a financial reason to look at electric machines.”

Watters added, though, that with electric construction equipment still in its infancy, the technology is being driven not by the contractor; rather, by his or her customers.

“There are many people out there that want to make a difference in terms of climate change, especially on the corporate level, and they are saying, ‘Hey, we have company policies now that we are trying

to follow to make positive impacts on climate change. Therefore, we want our contractors using electric machines powered by reusable energy sources.’”

People concerned about the environment, especially in a congested metropolis like New York City, where many of Hoffman Equipment’s customers work on building projects, understand the huge advantage that Volvo’s electric excavators, loaders, and other pieces can make in such a setting, Watters noted.

Among the exhaust fumes and constant noise from other equipment within the city’s endless canyons of tall buildings, Volvo’s electric machines have a relatively light impact on New York’s atmosphere.

“Let’s say you are working to tear up or rebuild streets in a residential urban environment like Greenwich Village,” Watters said. “If you are using these Volvo electric machines, they produce no noise or pollution to irritate the neighbors — it is dead quiet.

“If your customer wants that, you will need to come into Hoffman Equipment and figure out how to work electric machines into your fleet.”  CEG

Original Hoffman Chevy Pickup Truck Finds Its Way Back Home

People attending Hoffman Equipment’s June 1 demo day for the new Volvo EC230 electric excavator and other models may have been surprised to see another vehicle on display in front of the Piscataway dealership, one that uses a far different technology from an electric machine.

But the cool part of this story is not that the 1949 Chevrolet pickup truck at Hoffman Equipment still runs and serves a useful purpose, according to the company’s Tim Watters, but that it is back home after many years on the road.

In fact, this very truck was once part of the company’s fleet of what we think of today as service vehicles. It was used for several years in the 1950s and ’60s when the company was known as Hoffman Rigging and Crane Co., and even has the old name emblazoned on its side after than 70 years.

“Back then, though, we didn’t have service vehicles like we have now because we were a rigging and crane business. Instead, companies had pickups simply to carry stuff around,” Watters said.

For decades, though, the truck was lost to Hoffman Equipment after it was likely sold in the early 1960s, he believes.

“We don’t know what happened or where it was for so long, but my cousin, who has worked at Hoffman Equipment and is familiar with the company, was recently online looking for antique cars,”

Watters said. “He happened to see it available for sale, called me and we practically ran down to Tennessee where it was being offered and bought the truck. We brought it up here and found that it still runs. It’s a great truck.”

When Watters and his cousin were down south to buy the 1949 Chevy truck, they initially decided not to tell the seller that their family were its original owners. After looking over a few other trucks on the lot, they finally closed the deal on the one they wanted. Only then did they tell the owner who they were and their connection to the pickup.

“He was surprised and shocked at first, saying, ‘Are you kidding me?’ Then, as it sank in, he said he was thrilled that we got it back,” said Watters.

With the old Hoffman Rigging and Crane pickup back in its original home, the truck now represents the connection between Hoffman Equipment’s successful past and present.

GT Mid Atlantic Holds Grand Opening for New Facility

GT Mid Atlantic held a grand opening May 25, 2023, for its new Essex, Md., facility, outside of Baltimore. Contractors from around the area helped the equipment dealer celebrate the achievement and were treated to facility tours, lunch and more.

In early 2023, GTMidAtlantic decided to combine two of its Maryland stores into a brand-new main location in the Baltimore suburb of Essex.The company shut down its store in Halethorpe, near Interstate 695 — the Baltimore Beltway — southwest of downtown Baltimore, at the beginning of December, as well as itsAberdeen store and opened the new location on Jan. 2, 2023.

GT Mid Atlantic now has eight total dealerships, with three in Maryland, another three in New Jersey and one each in Delaware and the Philadelphia area.

Eric Marburger, vice president and general manager of GT MidAtlantic’s sales territory in Maryland, Delaware, the District of Columbia and northern Virginia, described the decision to close the two branches as one the company did not take lightly.

But Marburger said that GTMidAtlantic has overcome its initial fears about how the changes would affect its customers as most have lauded the new facility.

“People are coming in here and telling us that they enjoy such a nice facility, that it is welcoming and conducive to their doing business,” he said. “They also say that the drive is not too cumbersome and does not take up as much time as they thought it would. They are used to coming here now; it has become a secondhand thing for them.”

Marburger enjoys hearing his customers comment on the new 20,000-sq.-ft. Essex branch being so nice and clean because that was exactly why the decision was made to replace the Halethorpe and Aberdeen locations in the first place.

“All of the buildings that we moved out of were old and antiquated, and, quite frankly, they were not designed for what we are doing anymore,” he said. “We were more geared toward smaller machines at one time, but we are now more of a full-size equipment dealer in addition to utility-size pieces. In fact, the Halethorpe facility was not set up for anything having to do with construction equipment; rather, it was more of a freight transfer station built in the 1930s or ’40s.

“So, the new Essex branch is an upgrade for us all the way around in the sense that we now have a state-of-the-art facility that is useful in terms of service, parts and sales. It is better suited for doing business.”

He noted that the company worked 20 months to design, build, staff and move parts and equipment from the other now-shuttered Baltimore-area branches to the new location.

The building and equipment yard at GT Mid Atlantic’s new dealership occupies five of the company’s 7.5 acres at 8404 Kelso Dr. in Essex.

Although the new dealership has been open for six months, the official grand opening for the GT Mid Atlantic headquarters and dealership took place May 25.

Approximately 40 people work at the branch, Marburger said, with five employees in the parts department and another 15 service technicians and support professionals in the shop. In addition, the company keeps seven service trucks at the ready for whenever its customers need help on the job site.

He describes the new service compound in the Essex store as “massive,” and well suited for both large and small machines.

“It is really so much larger compared to our other locations,” Marburger said during the grand opening. “There are eight service bays out there, along with one 5-ton overhead crane.We also have the service department quartered off into a utility equipment side and a heavy equipment side.”

He added that with larger shop space at GT Mid Atlantic Essex, the dealership’s service techs could handle many more machines at once, if needed. For instance, he said it would be possible to work on as many as 20 of the smaller pieces — compact loaders and mini-excavators — on the utility

side of the service area.

GT Mid Atlantic shuttled guests from the main facility to the crushing and screening equipment spread a little ways down the road of the new location’s grounds.

Charlie Bagnall, regional sales director of Astec Industries, is eager to discuss crushing and screening equipment needs.

Alan Craft, regional account manager of Towmaster, was ready to tout his company’s line of trailers to event guests.

Eric Booth, regional sales manager of Sakai, was poised to discuss roadbuilding equipment with guests.

Takeuchi had a display during the grand opening. Mark Alcorn, product specialist of Avant Techno, was happy to be a part of the grand opening event.

“As far as the larger machines that we have, we could easily fit two off-road trucks inside the one overhead door,” Marburger added.

The roster of equipment that GT Mid Atlantic is led by Case Construction, which Marburger regards as the company’s “linchpin” product line. Another of its more prominent product lines is Takeuchi.

“In our yard, you will also find milling and paving equipment from Astec Industries, which we are happy to partner with because of all the road building happening right now,” he said, adding that the dealership carries each of its manufacturers’ full line of available machines.

GT Mid Atlantic also sells and services machines made by:

• Rubblemaster

• Epiroc

• Etnyre

• Terramac

• Avant Techno

• Robak

• Sakai

• IROCK

• Towmaster

• Tana Landfill

• FAE Group

• Midland

• Eager Beaver

• Spaleck

• MGL

• CBI

• LaBounty

• Superior Broom

• Transtech Systems

• Leica Geosystems

• Bagela

• Virnig

Now that GT Mid Atlantic has settled into its streamlined Essex dealership, Marburger said he feels a profound sense of satisfaction with what the company has accomplished in creating it.

Additionally, he is excited to see what the future holds for the branch and is certain it will enhance GT Mid Atlantic’s customer experience in the Washington-Baltimore metropolitan area.

“The long and short of it is we invested into the company and to the benefit of our people,” he said. “We thought that our employees and customers deserved a better facility than those we had. So, we designed a building with an atmosphere where customers can visit and feel welcome in a nice environment, and our employees can take care of their needs more efficiently with a larger service space and parts warehouse.”

United Construction & Forestry Celebrates New Facility

United Construction & Forestry — a relatively new name to Northeast contractors — has expanded its footprint as a John Deere Industrial and Forestry equipment distributer over the past several years through the acquisition of Schmidt Equipment and Nortrax.

Simultaneously, United Construction & Forestry’s sister company, UnitedAg &Turf, has been acquiring John Deere Agriculture and Turf product distributorships across the northeast.

On May 12, 2023, United celebrated the opening of a new facility in Clifton Park, N.Y. This spacious 27,000-sq.-ft. facility, located at 20 John Deere Lane, offers a blended representation of all the John Deere products available through United Construction & Forestry, as well as United Ag & Turf, including construction equipment, forestry, agricultural and turf equipment. From the Clifton Park facility, United will serve the Capital Region, as well as the North Country region of New York State.

The new facility features a modern shop that includes 10 service bays, a wash bay, a 15-ton and 10-ton overhead crane, four service trucks and a staff of certified master technicians. The site sits on 13 acres, which provides plenty of room for future growth and includes a 7,000 sq.-ft. cold storage building, as well as a demonstration area for customers to try out anything from a string trimmer to a 5-yd. loader.

“We are a progressive dealership that is focused on building the best team of employees to support our customers,” said Mark Kuhn, president of United Construction & Forestry, who was on hand for the grand opening celebration. “United is investing in training, updating service trucks and building new facilities. Clifton Park is an example of one of the new facilities and we have four additional building projects in motion.”

United Construction & Forestry has 14 C&F locations across Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts and

New York.

“When it comes to John Deere compact construction equipment, we provide sales, parts and service in over 50 locations,” Kuhn added. “We accomplish this by utilizing our United Ag & Turf & United Construction & Forestry locations. Combined, United provides the largest dealer network for support in the Northeast and separates us from the competition.

“As we update and build new facilities, we are demonstrating to our customers our commitment to support them at the highest level. These combination stores are an ideal situation. So many of our customers use multiple products from various divisions of John Deere. Landscapers will often grow from using mowers and trimmers to needing small to mid-sized earthmoving equipment. It is not unusual for a contractor to need a tractor in his fleet, and municipalities will run virtually everything that Deere offers.”  CEG

community for generations to come.”

“We at Solar One are thrilled to see Stuyvesant Cove Park reopen to the public,” said Stephen Levin CEO, Solar One. “As the stewards of Stuyvesant Cove Park, in partnership with EDC and the community, over almost two decades, we remain committed to seeing Stuyvesant Cove Park serve as a vital and long term resource for teaching resiliency and sustainability to many generations of New Yorkers to come.

Congratulations to Mayor Adams, Councilmember Powers, Councilmember Carlina Rivera, Assemblymember Epstein, Senator Gonzalez, Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine, DDC, EDC, Solar One staff and board of directors, and the countless people who worked to make this reopening a reality.”

Stuyvesant Cove Park

DDC managed construction of the new park for EDC, which will operate it. When completed, the entire new Stuyvesant Cove Park from East 18th Street to East 23rd Street will include 7,095 cu. yds. of soil, and will have 75 newly planted trees and 579 new shrubs throughout. There will be 1,180 ft. of concrete precast seating areas that are also designed to break up the force of any waves that may

approach the floodwall from the East River, along with benches and tables and chairs for park users. Along the sea wall, 1,345 ft. of new decorative railings will have been added.

The floodwall in the park is 1,340 ft. not counting the gates and rests on 173 piles driven up to 125 ft. below ground to support the wall, using 3,349 cu. yds. of concrete and 333 tons of reinforcing steel. An additional layer of sheet piling installed up to 60 ft. deep blocks water from the East River that may infiltrate the neighborhood from underground during future storm or flood events.

East Side Coastal Resiliency

ESCR is a $1.45 billion climate resiliency project that will provide flood protection and improve open spaces for more than 110,000 New Yorkers, including 28,000 residents in NYCHA housing. The project is building a 2.4-mi.-long flexible flood barrier consisting of walls, gates, berms and raised parkland from Montgomery Street at the southern end up to Asser Levy Playground between East 23rd and East 25th streets, areas that were severely impacted by Superstorm Sandy in 2012. Managed by DDC, it also will upgrade existing sewer systems to capture and manage precipitation during storms. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development provided $338 million for the project.

Construction of ESCR began in November 2020 in Asser Levy Playground, and in July 2022, Mayor Adams joined with numerous city agencies and local officials to reopen the playground, which was rebuilt with a 45-ton sliding flood gate, a floodwall and new resilient play areas and equipment.

In addition to Stuyvesant Cove and Asser Levy, ESCR also is upgrading East River Park, Corlears Hook Park, Murphy Brothers Playground and other open spaces in the area, making them more resilient and accessible while adding new and improved amenities, including improved waterfront access through reconstructed bridges and entry points.

East River Park will be elevated approximately 8 ft. with upgraded recreational facilities, new passive-use areas, and approximately 2,000 trees — including 50 different species selected for their ability to withstand salt spray and extreme weather.

ESCR also will build footings for a future pedestrian bridge elevating the Manhattan Greenway over its narrowest point along the East River, improving community access to the park.

The end date of ESCR has been extended to 2026 in order to accommodate local residents’ request that construction in East River Park be phased so that roughly half the park remains open throughout construction.

In October 2022, Mayor Adams and other officials broke ground on a companion project to ESCR’s south called Brooklyn Bridge — Montgomery Coastal Resiliency (BMCR). BMCR will construct a 0.82-mi. long system of flood gates that will flip up from the ground in the event of a storm or flood event, and will also improve recreation areas along its route.

Together, ESCR and BMCR will form a 3.22-mi. system of flood protection from the Brooklyn Bridge north to Asser Levy Playground. In August 2022, ESCR received an “Envision Gold Award” from the Institute For Sustainable Infrastructure.

Buckley & Co. to Lead Emergency I-95 Reopening Project

the highway open quickly and safely.

He added that the first loads of backfill are expected to arrive on site June 15 from Delaware County, south of Philadelphia, and will be escorted to the accident scene by the Pennsylvania State Police (PSP).

The “backfill and pave” process was recommended by road experts as the safest and most efficient way rebuild the highway, Shapiro explained.

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) will supervise the around-the-clock work to get three lanes open in each direction as a temporary solution while crews build a permanent bridge to replace the section that collapsed on June 11. PennDOT plans to construct one bridge first, and direct traffic over it while the other overpass is built.

The agency named Buckley & Co., a Philadelphia builder, as the project’s general contractor.

“We will build it to the highest standards,” PennDOT Secretary Mike Carroll assured reporters.

PennDOT rated the 104-ft. highway span as being in good condition earlier this year, with another inspection set for 2025.

The accident occurred when a tanker truck filled with gasoline crashed and exploded underneath the overpass, causing it to fall onto the vehicle, killing the driver. The southbound I-95 bridge over Cottman Avenue in Northeast Philadelphia also sustained enough damage that the state closed the highway in both directions until it could be replaced.

The demolition of both overpasses will be completed by June 15, Shapiro said, rather than the following week as originally thought.

The steel, rebar and concrete are being broken up and hauled away by New Jersey-based C.Abbonizio Contractors Inc., which already had big machinery nearby working on a sewer line project before the accident, according to WTFXTV FOX29 in Philadelphia.

Shapiro and other officials noted that the work will continue “around the clock,” but gave no timeline for its completion.

“We will get this job done as quickly as possible,” he said in response to several questions, adding that a live feed online will be set up so that area residents can watch the repairs to I-95.

The governor also refused to be lured into estimating the cost of reestablishing the highway connection beyond the $7 million in state funds he made available for the reconstruction through a disaster emergency proclamation he signed earlier in the week.

Truck Driver Lost His Life in Accident

Officials say the tanker truck’s driver, Nathan Moody, died from blunt trauma of the head, inhalation and thermal injuries. His manner of death was ruled an accident, reported WPVI-TV in Philadelphia.

He was hauling 8,500 gallons of gasoline on June 11 while trying to navigate a left-hand turn after exiting at the Cottman Avenue offramp of I-95.

According to Carroll, Moody lost control through his turn, and the tanker fell on its side and ruptured its own tank. Once ignited, the fuel burned at a high enough heat to structurally compromise the concrete and steel I-beams of the overpass.

PSP said video of the crash and explosion is now part of the investigation.

According to family members, Moody worked for TK Transport in Pennsauken, N.J, and was described as an experienced truck driver.

While touring the wreckage the afternoon of June 11, Shapiro described the scene as “remarkable devastation.” He and officials from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation cautioned motorists to expect detours and called for Philadelphia residents to embrace public transit for an unknown period as the highway is rebuilt.

Just before noon June 12, Shapiro signed a proclamation of disaster emergency allowing the state to dip into federal funds and cut red tape to hasten repairs on one of the busiest interstates in the region. Interstate 95 typically carries about 160,000 vehicles through Philadelphia each day.

The conditions to create such a calamity are so rare that highway bridges are not typically built to be fireproof like buildings, an engineering expert at Philadelphia’s Drexel University told the Washington Post.

“We don’t design them for fire resistance because we don’t expect to have any types of fire incidents,” said Amir Farnam, who studies reinforced-concrete infrastructure and estimated that it would take temperatures of 500 degrees Celsius to cut the steel used in highway girders in half.

Tanker Slammed Into Wall While Exiting I-95

The inferno began after the tanker driver took an off-ramp and crashed into a wall while trying to go around a curve at about 6:20 a.m. June 11, state officials said, causing the overpass on I-95 northbound to fall onto the truck.

Anorthbound slice of the road cratered and the southbound overpass became structurally unsound after the tanker exploded, billowing huge plumes of smoke, and burning with such intensity that steel girders supporting the highway bridge melted.

After reaching the scene at I-95’s Cottman Avenue exit about 10 minutes after the first alarm, it took Philadelphia firefighters about an hour to get the blaze under control, PFD said, and stayed on the scene during the day as a precaution.

From June 11 overnight into the next morning, demolition crews worked to clear the collapsed section of the road.As the sun rose June 12, heavy equipment could be seen hauling away some of the ruins of the collapsed roadway structure.

Interstate 95, a major north-south artery that carries freight and goods from Maine to Florida, functions as a key connection to other primary highways including the New Jersey Turnpike or Interstate 295, which splits off in Delaware to carry travelers passing through the region around Philadelphia as they continue up and down the Eastern Seaboard.

Federal Officials Promise Swift Response

While crews work around the clock clean up the debris, CNN reported that federal investigators are probing the tanker truck fire that led to the collapse.

Examiners are also monitoring the emergency response as crews sift through rubble to get to the tanker truck — a focus of the investigation, said Jennifer Homendy, chair of the National Transportation Safety Board.

The tanker was carrying fuel bound for delivery at a local Wawa gas station, she added.

“We have to get in and see what we think happened with the tanker truck,” Homendy explained, underscoring the chain of events will remain unclear until investigators can examine the truck’s cab. “There are lots of different scenarios.”

Investigators also could consider the structural makeup of the bridge, she noted.

NTSB spokesperson Sarah Taylor Sulick told CNN that the agency’s “investigators are specialists in motor carrier and hazardous materials safety, highway and technical reconstruction, and emergency response.”

properly place the stone and to prepare the ground. Keller used numerous large excavators including a Caterpillar 365 and John Deere 450. The job also required multiple dozers and rollers to move the soil and rock and compact it into place.

The Keller construction team worked through the winter to complete the massive work in six months. In addition to trucking in one million tons of stone and embankment soil, Keller hauled off 15,000 tons of petroleum contaminated soil, 10,000 cu. yds. of unsuitable soil and 14,000 cu. yds. of stumps and woody debris. Keller recycled the woody debris and used existing soil to cut and fill, which saved the need for importing some 100,000 cu. yds. of fill to construct embankments.

Keller did some creative thinking to protect buried gas utility lines on the property.

“Some of the final design and engineering on the project was still being figured out when we had trucks rolling,” said Jameson Phillips, vice president for Keller. “We brought out timber matting to protect the utility lines when we were transporting the material. We also used air bridges to protect the large gas mains from the heavy equipment and trucks.”

A hazard of working in the winter

was the frost build up in areas where the fill had to be placed.

“That didn’t take us long to fix,” said Phillips. “We brought in a milling machine to grind up the frost.”

The Keller team used technology to properly position the enormous volume of rock and soil on the island.

“We used our new Propeller Aero Trimble drone to track real time cut/fill,” said Phillips. “The drone allowed us to track disturbance limits (for SWPPP), low topography for ponds and site management throughout the winter.”

The Keller team had to contend with

lots of dirt and mud kicked up by hauling rock through winter across some saturated ground.

“We kept two sweeper trucks busy all the time to prevent trucks from tracking the mud across public roadways,” said Phillips.

Although the project is still in its early stages, the work at Port ofAlbany promises important advances in renewable energy for New Yorkers. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul summed up the project by saying, “Welcome to the future.”  CEG

Aggregate Production and Recycling Section

For SBM Mineral Processing, Hybrid Continues ‘By Nature’

For almost 40 years, SBM Mineral Processing has been consistently using diesel-electric drive systems and is a supplier of cross-technological hybrids for trackmobile jaw and impact crushers from under 50,000 to 350,000 lbs. operating weight.

Due to their sophisticated drive concept, the JAWMAX and REMAX plants rank at the top of their respective machine classes regarding crusher dimensions and production output without making any compromises concerning their mobility between sites or on the site, the manufacturer said.

Homogeneous Concept for All Types of Machines

SBM pursues a homogeneous concept for all of its plants to ensure the significant benefits of diesel-electric drive systems in all power classes. Depending on the market region, this also includes a plug-in option that enables the all-electric complete operation of the plants via mains power or external generators.

In addition to significantly lower onsite emissions in terms of exhaust gases and noise, all-electric operation brings considerable operating cost savings, the manufacturer said.

Parallel to the expansion of its global sales activities, SBM is working at full speed to make the plug-in option technically avail-

able in important regions, such as the North American markets.

The centerpiece of all hybrid electrified SBM mobiles plants consists of a diesel-generator-unit with emission-optimized Cummins diesel engines and directly flanged low-maintenance generators. The compact drive units are positioned outside of the dust-intensive machine zones.

As standard, the control cabinets are additionally overpressured and can be heated/airconditioned for extremely difficult operations. In optional plug-in operation, the plant

is supplied by the grid or by alternative external power sources (gen sets) at the control cabinet — activation is easy and safe by simply switching the central master switch before starting the plant.

From this moment on the central SBM plant control system Crush Control automatically starts, monitors and controls the individual machine components during crushing operations. Depending on machine type and

equipment (scalpers, discharge conveyors, additional screens, etc.), up to 20 electric motors with a power input of 750 W (sprinkling) up to 250 kW (crusher) are used in the SBM plants.

The working hydraulics system (crusher gap setting, hydraulic cylinders, etc.) and the proportional traction drive are energized by two electrically operated pumping systems and circuits that are activated separately. This improves the energy footprint, for example by eliminating the unnecessary stand-by status of the track motors, and assures full functionality of the systems in all-electric operation.

In contrast to diesel-electric plants equipped with significantly more on-board hydraulics, SBM minimizes the oil quantities required on board to for example only 20 gal. compared to about 50 gal. respectively more than 160 gal. required by fully dieselhydraulic models in the 40-ton class.

Instead of using complex hydraulic pipings meaning high thermal losses resp. costly oil cooling, all other drive systems and appliances in SBM plants are connected via break-proof cables, which practically eliminates environmentally critical leaks

The BL1/SSL/VT can be used for vegetation maintenance along roadsides, railroad tracks, the banks of canals, rivers, lakes, managing and protecting wildlife habitats, maintaining vineyards and orchards, commercial and residential green areas and sports grounds.

FAE introduced a new forestry mulcher for small skid steers: the BL1/SSL/VT for vehicles from 45 to 65 hp, which can shred vegetation, shrubs, and trees up to 4 in. in diameter.

It can be used for vegetation maintenance along roadsides, railroad tracks, the banks of canals, rivers, lakes, managing and protecting wildlife habitats, maintaining vineyards and orchards, commercial and residential green areas and sports grounds.

The head is designed for high productivity, durability and easy maintenance.

The BL1/SSL/VT’sVariable Torque (VT) piston engine boosts mulcher performance compared to a fixed-cylinder engine, increasing torque when an extra boost of power is needed and minimizing rotor stalling, according to the manufacturer.

In the field, the mulcher operates with the maximum torque needed, for enhanced performance while optimizing fuel consumption.

The Bite Limiter technology on this head is ideal for high productivity in managing vegetation, with reliably efficient shredding. The rotor with Bite Limiter technology comes

The new BL1/SSL/VT can be equipped with MINI BL blades or MINI C/3 teeth and is available in a width of 49 in.

with special wear-resistant steel profiles that limit the reach (bite) of the teeth. This cuts down on power demand and promotes a consistent working speed, for enhanced performance when mulching any kind of wood.

The Bite Limiter technology also minimizes rotor stalling and helps optimize fuel consumption, the manufacturer said.

The Spike Pro counter blades ensure low power absorption and a finer final product. Spike Pros are interchangeable offset counter blades that enable finer shredding and a smoother flow of wet material. The special design also makes them efficient with very rigid and more flexible vegetation.

The flagship features of the BL1/SSL are completed with a high-visibility profile, helping the operator to optimize work, and interchangeable and adjustable skids for greater precision.

The new BL1/SSL/VT can be equipped with MINI BL blades or MINI C/3 teeth and is available in a width of 49 in. For more information, visit www.fae-group.com. 

Metso Gains Big Order for Mining Customer Project

Metso’s AF18 apron feeder is one of the largest feeders that Metso has ever produced.

Metso has been awarded orders for a gyratory crusher and apron feeders including related services and spare parts to support a mining customer project in the Americas.

The value of the orders is approximately EUR 20 million, of which 80 percent were booked in Minerals segment’s first-quarter orders received and the balance in Minerals segment’s second quarter.

Metso’s scope of delivery includes an impressive apron feeder package featuring Metso’sAF18 apron feeder, one of the largest feeders that Metso has ever produced. The apron feeder supplies material downstream to a Metso Superior MKIII primary gyratory crusher.

The gyratory crusher accepts the largest top size feed in the market, allowing it to provide higher capacities, which makes this crusher the most cost-efficient primary gyratory crusher in the industry, according to the manufacturer.

“We are excited to be able to support our customers to ensure their needs are met. It is especially rewarding when we are able to demonstrate our capabilities for flowsheet synergies such as crushers and apron feeders as this equipment works hand in hand for minerals processing,” said Guillaume Lambert, SVP, Crushing at Metso.

Metso has the capability to design and deliver even the largest apron feeder systems with high project quality. Combined with its advanced line of mining duty crushers, Metso offers complete solutions providing flexible and reliable material processing to meet high demands and ensuring the success of its customers, the company said.

Superior Industries Reveals New Look for Its Well-Known Chevron Wing Pulley

Superior Industries Inc., a manufacturer and global supplier of bulk material processing and handling systems, revealed a new look for its well-known Chevron Wing Pulley at ConExpo-Con/AGG 2023.

The CEMA-rated model is now designed and manufactured without a rounded cap on the wings.

“Users are going to get the same benefits of the original design, but the CEMA class gets a bit of a price reduction without that rounded bar,” said Mary Erholz, vice president of marketing and conveying product manager at Superior. “It’s also going to increase the service life of Chevron Pulleys, since the bare wings offer so much more wearable material.”

The v-shaped Chevron Pulley revolutionized expectations for wing performance after being invented by Superior in 2007. Traditional straight wing pulleys were always prone to trapping material, bending prematurely and notorious for damaging conveyor belting, according to Superior.

The Chevron Pulley’s benefits:

• Deflects oncoming fugitive material

• Fewer rocks trapped between wings

• No trapped rocks to puncture belting

• Constant contact between pulley and belt reduces noise

• Less abusive to belt splices and clips

CEMADuty Chevron Pulleys are manufactured in diameters up to 36-in. and face widths up to 78-in. Mine Duty, Super Duty and custom engineered classes also are available.

SBM Pursues Homogenous Concept for All of Its Crushing, Screening Plants

and corresponding breakdowns, according to the manufacturer.

Without the detour via hydraulic control blocks, electric activation ensures continuous quick response of the various plant components and facilitates easy and simple adaptation of feeding rates, screening capacities, or frequency-converter-controlled “extras” such as the automatic dedusting of chutes.

Efficient, Eco-Friendly

The degree of efficiency of dieselelectric drive systems can be considerably increased if energy-intensive hydraulic drive components are eliminated.At about 80 percent, the efficiency exceeds that of diesel-electric systems without or with optimized loaddependent control (ca. 40 percent / ca. 50 percent); and with grid connection the efficiency factor comes to more than even 90 percent. And this of course directly influences fuel con-

sumption: The diesel engines of the SBM plants operating at a speed of 1,500 to 1,800 rpm adjustable in steps consume more than 40 percent less than all-hydraulic systems.

Compared to models with directly driven crushers, consumption is still reduced by 20 percent, the manufacturer said.

Given the sharp increase in fuel prices and in spite of varying electricity costs, it can be assumed that the 60 percent benefit in energy costs due to allelectric grid operation still rating as a rule of thumb has long ago further shifted in favor of hybrid technology. By now SBM anticipates that due to saving operational costs, diesel-electric hybrid plants with a high all-electric workload will — due to lower maintenance costs resulting from less wear and a longer service life — fully pay off even over a few years only.

With full flexibility in diesel-autarkic operation where SBM hybrids provide further environmental benefits on top of the reduced hydraulic volume

and the consumption-based low emissions of their EU-stage-V-power plants: Thus, the elaborately enclosed diesel-generator units win over due to low noise emissions without loaddependent fluctuations. If switched over to all-electric operation, the noise generated by the same plant will decrease by another 6 dB significantly reducing noise emissions depending on geographical surroundings, the manufacturer said.

Even in all-electric “zero-emission” operation, possible effects on the immediate working environment are paramount: In tunnel construction or indoor recycling they are quite obvious, but for city-center demolition tenders technologies efficiently reducing exhaust emissions are becoming more and more important. This grants hybrid electrified plants a key competitive edge — not to mention the great image bonus of a company reducing its CO² footprint.

Attachments International Introduces Several New Models to Product Lineup

By Katherine Petrik CEG EDITORIAL ASSISTANT

Attachments International (AI) of Pelican Rapids, Minn., announced its new lineup of attachments, including the rotating powerhead, barrel handler, bale handler, pole handler, rotating pallet forks and straight-arm clamp.

AI attachments feature high-strength alloy steel, fully welded seams, reinforcing gussets and T-1 plate lips. The company’s attachments fit most manufacturers and various types of machines, including skid steers, backhoes, excavators, mini-excavators, telehandlers, agriculture machines and more.

Rotating Powerhead

The rotating powerhead is the mainstay of all AI rotating hydraulic power attachments. This unit features hydraulic motors designed for large conveyer systems and used wheel vehicles that use direct wheel drives.

This attachment is designed for skid steer and compact wheel loaders in the 90-110 hp range. They also are used on TLB’s and can rotate 12,000 lbs. with oil flow of 8 to 30 gal.

Barrel Handler

The barrel handler is designed for easy and safe transport. It features a non-sparking neoprene liner, necessary when maneuvering hazardous materi-

als. The neoprene reduces friction that causes sparking.

The AI barrel handler is designed to handle 35-, 55- and 85-gal. drums. This attachment is available for use with the optional hydraulic rotating mount.

Pole Puller

The pole-puller is perfect for tight quarters such as alleys where large equipment is not recommended. It also is useful in soft, swampy conditions where large equipment can’t be used.

TheAI pole puller features three axis positioning — horizontal, vertical and angled, making it adaptable to almost any conditions.

Kenworth Announces T680 Hydrogen Fuel Cell Plans

Kenworth announced it will beginproductionofitsClass8zero emissions T680 hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV), powered by Toyota fuel cell technology.

Initial customer deliveries are planned for 2024, with serial production planned in 2025. Kenworth dealers in the United States and Canada are now accepting deposits for the first of these T680 FCEV builds.

Kenworth and Toyota Motor North America, Inc. collaborated closely on developing the T680 FCEV. Kenworth integrated Toyota’s latest advancements in hydrogen fuel cell technology into its flagship T680 on-highway truck.TheT680 FCEVhas a range of up to 450 mi., depending upon driving conditions.

“The T680 FCEV was engineered to offer one of the longest driving ranges of any zero emissions trucks on the market,” said Kevin Baney, Kenworth general manager and PACCAR vice president.

“With quick refueling, this

broadens our zero-emission product offering to include round-theclock operations in regional haul and demonstrates FCEV potential for long haul.”

The truck is equipped with Toyota’s 310kW Dual Motor Assembly, capable of providing

415 hp continuously at a maximum payload of 82,000 lbs (GCWR), and the Toyota Gen 2 Dual Fuel Cell Module.

“After years of research and development with Toyota and product testing the T680 FCEV in real-world operations, it’s an excit-

ing time in Kenworth’s history to bring this technologically advanced truck to market,” said Baney.

“Kenworth is proud to be an industry leading producer of zero emission transportation solutions for our customers. The T680

FCEV is a great addition to our lineup of Class 6, 7 and 8 batteryelectric models that are available today.”

Last year, Kenworth and Toyota completed a joint pilot program at the Port of Los Angeles, where Kenworth customers operated 10 prototype T680 FCEVs in a realworld setting. The program’s success laid the foundation for Kenworth and Toyota engineers to develop the T680 FCEV that is the focus of the commercialization plans.

“Toyota is excited to take the next step in this joint effort with Kenworth to provide a zero-emission powertrain kit to its customers,” said Matt Stich, general manager Fuel Cell Solutions, Toyota Motor North America. “This proven hydrogen-powered fuel cell electric technology will allow commercial customers to help reduce carbon and operate more sustainably.”

Using takeoff software is the contractor’s “key to success” when it comes to estimating and bidding precisely. Consider how many interruptions happen in the middle of figuring quantities of construction materials.

“How long did it take you to get back to where you were? Did you have to start over?” asked Townley. “With takeoff software, you’re able to measure directly from the blueprints using a scale tool.”

She said, in fact, the software’s digital, color-coded calculations can keep your estimates organized and accurate, so nothing gets missed. Using digital blueprint features mean less miscommunication and rework. No more manually hunting for discrepancies or changes in blueprints.

“Instead of hunting for the differences between revised blueprints, the digital overlay feature highlights the changes for you,” said Townley. “With paper blueprints, it’s easy to miss the little details that may have shifted, but with digital drawings, you’ll catch mistakes before they happen.”

The benefits are reduced labor costs, fewer risks, a higher bid win ratio and happy clients, she said.

“This competitive advantage won’t just save you money but will hopefully bring in some new business.”

Digitizing blueprints means the contractor no longer has to worry about continuous reprinting of the project plan for various teams and crew members. The entire operation can have access to updates in real-time, “so everyone’s on the same page,” said Townley.

“In an industry as competitive as construction, the more you can do to stand out, the better,” she said.

Being able to create estimates quickly allows the contractor more time to review and even present bids ahead of schedule.

“Implementing takeoff software will give you an advantage over your competitors who are still using a manual estimating process.”

Determining What You Need

Couey suggests that if you’re shopping for the best type of software for your construction business needs, focus on “specific pain points” you want alleviated.

“For instance, if you find yourself unable to provide quotes to potential customers in a timely fashion, you might be losing out on revenue.”

Additionally, you might find that the quotes you’re giving out aren’t accurate, he said.

“Generally, as a business owner, you will need to figure out what part of your business is lacking automation.”

Ask yourself what part do you spend the

most time on. If it’s scheduling, invest and focus on software suites with more robust scheduling features. During your workday, note the parts of your job that eat up the most time. Is it managing the project schedule? Calculating quotes? Measuring the takeoff?

“That’s how you’ll figure out what you need your software to solve,” said Couey. Based on the quantity of projects you’re completing or the estimates you’re providing, you might not need the added efficiency takeoff software provides. But if you’re overwhelmed and unable to keep up with the demand, takeoff software will provide more complete, detailed construction plans with less effort.

In selecting software, Couey advised contractors to try multiple free trials and product

demos. He also suggests having a backup plan if your first choice doesn’t offer a free program trial.

“Free trials aren’t always available, so it’s important to have a game plan if your top choice doesn’t let you take a test drive before purchasing.”

Keep in mind, as well, that you can almost always get a hands-on demonstration with the software before making any decisions, he said.

And “utilize free trials with intention,” said Couey. “Use the free trial during your next job to see if it helps alleviate the pain points you need it to.”

Write down any questions you might have so that you can ask the vendor about them.

“With a free trial, you’ll be much more

informed and equipped to go into a demonstration with a vendor to maximize the information you get.”

Also be sure to provide the vendor with specific use cases. Think through what makes your job inefficient and provide a specific, real-world example. That way the vendor can show you exactly how their software can help solve that issue, said Couey.

Complete multiple demos before you decide. The first can just be you and the vendor. But bring in other potential users of the software for subsequent demos.

“They might have different questions or concerns that you hadn’t considered before,” said Couey.

Consult peers in your software search. Even if you start from ground zero, so many resources are available to help you out, he continued.

“The first place you can start is asking your colleagues what software they use.” Word of mouth is “king” when it comes to finding solutions.

“Don’t tackle software selection alone,” said Couey. “Listen to the advice from your peers who have gone through the same struggles. Ask for help.”

He also suggested reading reviews, talking to vendors and trying out multiple options.

“As long as you utilize the resources available to you, you will almost certainly be in a better position once you’ve acquired software.”

In the end, you’ll be more efficient operationally and you’ll be able to provide more accurate quotes in a quicker time frame.

“You’ll spend less time worrying about takeoff or estimating, and your project management will be more smooth,” said Couey.  CEG

Project management technology, namely estimating and takeoff software, can provide a more efficient planning process.

A construction takeoff is an extensive list of material amounts and costs for a project. Takeoff software allows the contractor to provide the client with a more-complete construction plan.

Approximately15KCu. Yds. of Fill to Be Used

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg visited the site June 13 and will help local officials swiftly address the extensive disruption caused by the collapse.

COLLAPSE from page 46 followuson @LyonAuction!

“To be clear, swiftly is not going to be overnight,” Buttigieg told reporters at an event hosted by the American Council of Engineering Companies. “We’re talking about major structural work.”

He added that the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is working with adjacent states to alert drivers about the collapse and help with traffic plans. He urged travelers planning to cross through the region to pay close attention to local traffic alerts as “we expect significant regional impact.”

While the exact cost of repairing the crucial roadway is still unclear, Shapiro said Pennsylvania is working with federal officials on a “speedy rebuild of I-95.”

The governor said Buttigieg “has assured me that there will be absolutely no delay in getting federal funds deployed to quickly help us rebuild this critical artery.

“I-95, of course, is a critical roadway that supports our economy and plays an important role in folks’ everyday lives,” Shapiro said.

All lanes of I-95 are shut down between the exits for Woodhaven Road in Northeast Philadelphia and Aramingo Avenue in the Port Richmond section of the city. Some surrounding streets also are closed for the emergency response.

As a result, commutes have moved slowly on nearby streets as drivers tested new routes around the closed highway.

A ‘Dip’ Seen On Overpass Just After Accident

Mark Fusetti was driving south on I-95 to pick up his son from the Philadelphia airport early June 11 just before the collapse when he saw large plumes of dark smoke and used his cellphone to begin filming, initially thinking there was a brush fire.

The video he recorded appears to show his car and other vehicles driving over a “dip” along I-95 as smoke billowed from under both sides of the highway. He told CNN he was startled by the dip, saying, “it felt like you drove off a curb.”

“I realized what happened when I looked in my rear-view mirror,” he added. “I see I-95 — all of the cars stopping — and then I learned shortly after that the road had just collapsed.”

Some of the gasoline from the tanker truck spilled into a drainage system that ends in the nearby Delaware River, where the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) used a boom to contain the spillage. USCG Ensign Josh Ledoux, though, said it did not appear that the contents were spreading into the environment.

“As far as waterways go, it’s being contained, and it seems like things are under control,” he explained.

USCG officials later confirmed to WPVI-TV that there was no sheening on the Delaware River, which signals no gasoline reached the river from the truck. There was a small amount of sheening in a cove next to the river, but none in the river itself.

Gov.Shapiro:‘WeWill GetThisJobDoneas Quickly as Possible’

COLLAPSE from page 99

I-95 Drivers Will Have to Endure Traffic Lights Again

Shapiro said that due to the expected time it will take to make repairs to the highway, his office was looking into “alternatives to connect the roadway beyond detours.”

Most drivers traveling the I-95 corridor between Delaware and New York City use the New Jersey Turnpike rather than the segment of interstate where the collapse occurred.

Until 2018, drivers did not have a direct highway connection between I-95 in Pennsylvania and I-95 in New Jersey. Instead, they had to use a few miles of surface roads, with traffic lights, to get from one to the other — an alternative that they may have to rely on again, at least for a while.

Rep. Brendan Boyle, a Pennsylvania Democrat whose district includes the damaged section of the highway, told CNN that “you are literally going to have millions of people in what is one of the largest population centers in the country impacted in a significant way.”

In speaking with CNN June 12, PennDOT’s Carroll said officials from New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland have been “quite helpful” managing I-95 traffic in the wake of the bridge collapse. 

Caterpillar Helps OEMs Reduce Engineering,Assembly Costs

Advanced Engineering, Outstanding Performance

The flexible and innovative designs of the new Cat C2.8 and Cat 3.6 IPUs offer numerous features to address the demands of offhighway equipment owners.

They feature a common rail direct-injection design with a turbocharged C2.8 or turbocharged aftercooled C3.6 air system.

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

For fast installation, an optional engine control panel for engine monitoring and speed control also is available.

To provide minimal downtime for regeneration, each IPU is equipped with an onengine diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) and diesel particulate filter (DPF), while the Cat C3.6 also has selective catalytic reduction (SCR).
