By Chuck MacDonald CEG CORRESPONDENT

When a tanker truck explosion collapsed part of an I-95 bridge June 11 in Philadelphia, PennDOT sprang into action with an aggressive

plan for the crucial roadway. In just two weeks, Penn DOT and contractors C. Abbonizio and Buckley & Co. battled rain and the schedule to put a temporary roadway in place.

Dan Gleason, assistant construction engineer of Penn DOT explained the importance of this

project.

“The road has an average volume of 160,000 vehicles per day, making it one of the heaviest traveled sections in the country,” he said. “We were committed to getting the section that was see REOPENING page 74

States Opening Infrastructure Wallet Projects to Improve Highway

Safety, Efficiency Increase Across Country

Funding for transportation projects through the bipartisan IIJA act is starting to flow at the state level. The amount of funding being doled depends on the state, its size and how much of a priority it puts on its infrastructure programs. Tracking the flow of funds, ARTBA reported 19 states have approved 24 measures. That equates to $13.5 billion in new transportation revenue during the first five months of 2023. Other states are considering upping their see INFRASTRUCTURE page 86

Pa.toRepairThreeAgingDam/LockSystemsOnOhioRiver

More than $857 million from the federal Infrastructure Investment and JobsAct (IIJA) will help fund the repair of Pennsylvania’s three aging locks on the upper Ohio River to prevent failures that could result in a halt to river traffic.

The grant helps fund a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) contract to expand and replace the chambers at a trio of key facilities on the Ohio River and ensure the availabilityofwaterformunicipal and industrial purposes as well as relieve traffic congestion.

Obtaining the money needed to upgrade the three locks, the oldest and smallest on the river,hasbeenatoppriorityfor stateandfederallawmakersfor decades as each structure has beguntoshowsignificantdeterioration; in fact, one of the dam and lock systems is already leaking, according to the Center for American Progress, which added that there exists a 50 percent chance of the system failing by 2028.

Additionally, the upper Ohio River supports 76,500 jobs and its locks are key to the region’s economy.

All three systems are located in the Pittsburgh region. They include:

• The Emsworth Locks and Dam, only 6 mi. northwest of downtown Pittsburgh, has been operational since 1922 while the original dams were rebuilt into gated structures, one on each side of Neville Island in the middle of the Ohio River. It features one lock for commercial barge traffic that is 600 ft. long by 110 ft. wide, and a recreational auxiliary lock measuring 360 ft. by 56 ft. Emsworth averages about 470 commercial lock throughs per month and 350 to 400 lock throughs monthly on the recreational auxiliary lock.

• The Dashields Lock and Dam opened in 1929 after a two-year-long construction.The fixed-crest dam is located 13 mi. downstream of Pittsburgh. It, too, has two locks, one for commercial barge traffic that is 600 ft. long by 110 ft wide, and the recreational auxiliary lock is 360 ft. long by 56 ft. wide. Dashields averages about 450 commercial lock throughs every month and 200 to 300 lock throughs a month on the recreational lock.

• Finally, situated 32 mi. downstream from the Steel City is the Montgomery Locks and Dam, which, like the others in the

Pennsylvania system of Ohio River dams, has a pair of locks for commercial and recreational use, and encompasses the same dimensions. The Montgomery system averages around 300 commercial lock throughs every month and 150 lock throughs on the recreational auxiliary lock. Engineers, however, have discovered leakages within the 87-year-old Montgomery facility.

Mary Ann Bucci, the Port of Pittsburgh’s executive director, told the Beaver County Times in 2022 that a crack was leaking water between the two walls of Montgomery’s chambers.

“If that wall collapses, both chambers would be non-functional and you close the Port of Pittsburgh," she explained, adding such an event would also completely shut down regional commerce and could affect municipal drinking water.

According to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the primary factors supporting the upper Ohio River navigation system project are the poor structural conditions and inadequate lock capacity for modern navigation tows on the waterway. With the Emsworth, Dashields and Montgomery locks and dams being so old, they are reaching the end of their service lives. Built prior to air-entrained concrete, each facility experiences condition fatigue of the concrete causing unreliable structural integrity of the

lock walls. The new structures, however, will meet modern design criteria. Additionally, the current lock chamber sizes of each are now well below the size needed to accommodate the larger, more powerful modern barges that lock through the lower Ohio River. Many barges must “double-lock” through the upper Ohio’s main chambers, which takes longer and causes more wear and tear on both the lock structure and operating machinery.The three undersized lock chambers in Pennsylvania also increase economic inefficiencies and, in the end, cost consumers more.

Work on the Montgomery system’s project will include replacing the facility’s 360ft.auxiliarychamberwithawiderandlonger 600-ft. chamber that can fit up to nine barges at once. The district expects to begin work on the new lock construction in 2024, which will last at least eight years to complete.

Major Rehabilitations Ahead

The structural issues found at the three facilities were temporarily addressed during major rehabilitations undertaken in the 1980s and early ‘90s. These efforts were intended as stop-gap measures designed to extend the useful life of the dams and locks for another 25 years.

Given the effects of weathering and age, however, there were concerns over the con-

tinued reliability of the facilities, the USACE said.Anchoring and other temporary solutions were implemented to extend their life until more permanent repairs could be evaluated and implemented. The rehabilitation initiatives were limited in scope and were guided by expediency, considering lock closure time constraints, costs and feasibility.

The USACE reported that many known issues were only corrected in part; some were left untouched because repairs were found to be non-feasible, and others similarly were left uncorrected because they were not considered to be critical.

As an example, deteriorated concretewasleftinplaceinstead of being removed and was mostly covered over. Thus, while the top surface of the lock walls appears to be in good condition, hidden below that surface are most of the problems that have existed for years.

The Upper Ohio Navigation Project is part of the National Economic Development (NED) plan for improving navigation on that end of the river by replacing each auxiliary lock chamber with a new one almost doubling their size to 110 ft. by 600 ft. per facility, capable of fitting up to nine barges at once.

Following their completion, the finished structures would serve as the new main lock chamber for each dam and lock system.

“The Army Corps of Engineers has invested $934.7 million in funds across [Fiscal Year 2022 and Fiscal Year 2023] in the Upper Ohio Navigation System as part of a $2.1 billion project to upgrade the Emsworth, Dashields and Montgomery locks and dams,” said a statement released from the White House earlier this year. “Regionally, the larger project is expected to support more than 21,000 full time jobs. Transportation through Emsworth, Dashields, and Montgomery is expected to support another 3,800 full-time jobs annually.”

The new lock chamber at Montgomery Locks and Dam received significant funding as part of the IIJA, also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Investment Bill of 2021.The first preparatory construction contract for the Montgomery lock was awarded in 2020, with more contracts planned this year, and the awarding of the new lock chamber construction contract is scheduled to occur in 2024 and take as long as eight years to complete. 

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Pittsburgh District manages the construction work at Montgomery, currently in the preconstruction phase. The current phase helps prepare the worksite for an upcoming multi-year construction project.

Pat DiCicco, Eagle Power Sales Representative, PassesAway

With tremendous sadness, Eagle Power & Equipment announced the sudden passing of a beloved member of their company, Pat DiCicco.

Gifted with a tremendous heart and appreciation for others, there is hardly anyone in the industry working in the Delaware Valley whom he has not touched in his more than 50-year career, said the company.

Born in the Philadelphia area in 1947, Mr. DiCicco started as an assistant parts manager of State Equipment Corp. in 1967. Seeking to move into capital equipment sales, he joined CASE Power Equipment in 1971 as a trencher salesman. His attention to the needs of customers allowed him to take responsibility over a full CASE line territory in 1973. He was one of the many who formed the independent Eagle Power and Equipment in 1996 after the company’s purchase by Jerry McDonald. Throughout it all he was the personal connection customers had with the brand and organization — always greeting folks with a smile, a joke and an unwavering commitment to doing right by them, said the company.

To his coworkers, Mr. DiCicco had always been a constant warm presence. Whenever he came into the office, everything changed a bit and became a little brighter and the mood a little lighter. He always seemed to be the main attraction at all the company’s sales meetings, picnics and Christmas parties.

“Pat [DiCicco] was an extraordinary man, an amazing salesman, a great friend and a mentor,” said Matt McDonald, president of Eagle Power & Equipment. “Like all of us, I have many great Pat stories. But the thing I will always remember about Pat is how he always began and ended our conversations. He always started with ‘You good? Everything OK?’ and ended with ‘I love you Bud.’ It didn’t

matter what the conversation was about or if it was pleasant or an argument, they always began and ended the same way. The beauty of Pat was that he made you feel special, and that was your unique greeting and salutation.”

Mr. DiCicco was the beloved husband of Kathleen for 57 years, with whom he spent his life since they were childhood sweethearts. Together, they had four children and welcomed many grandchildren and great grandchildren into their family. He was a member of the Barren Hill Volunteer Fire Company for 30 years servicing such roles as a driver, safety officer and board trustee. One of his proudest responsibilities was being Santa during the company’s annual Christmas runs.

The company said, “Words cannot fully express what he meant to all who knew him. ‘Pat, all is good, and everything will be OK. We love you too Bud.’”

About Eagle Power & Equipment

Eagle Power has been the DelawareValley’s construction equipment leader for more than 25 years, representing leading manufacturers CASE, Kubota, and more. Eagle Power has locations in Montgomeryville, Pa., West Chester, Pa., and New Castle, Del. 

In January 2021, Pat DiCicco celebrated a major milestone— 50 years working for CASE Power & Eagle Power.

The annual Montgomeryville, Pa., Christmas decorating party was always an event where Pat DiCicco’s personality and dedication would shine.

“Pat, all is good, and everything will be OK. We love you too Bud,” said his friends and colleagues at Eagle Power.

“Pat [DiCicco] was an extraordinary man, an amazing salesman, a great friend and a mentor.”

Woods CRW Holds Mecalac Demonstration Event in Pa.

Woods CRW held a Mecalac demonstration event June 8, 2023, in Carlisle, Pa.

Contractors from across the central Pennsylvania region were given the opportunity to see each Mecalac product put through its paces, have questions answered by factory representatives and get behind the controls of eight different equipment models.

On display and available to operate included:

• 7MWR wheeled excavator;

• 15MWR wheeled excavator;

• 6MCR crawler skid excavator;

• 8MCR crawler skid excavator;

• 10MCR crawler skid excavator;

• 12MTX wheel excavator loader;

• AX850 wheel loader; and

• AX1000 wheel loader.

Woods CRW has been carrying the full Mecalac line for three years at its Carlisle branch. Applications for both the MCR and MWR series include construction, hardscape, infrastructure, landscape, municipal maintenance, septic work, supply yards and utility work.

The MWR Series of wheeled excavators are purpose-built to allow for maximum maneuverability in tight working areas, offering the flexibility and versatility of a skid steer or compact track loader in one machine and delivering higher speed and mobility than tracked excavators. The MCR Series of crawler skid excavators are designed to combine the speed of loader with the rotation of an excavator.

Andy Baker of J.G. Baker Inc. Excavating in Manheim, Pa., was on hand to see the Mecalac equipment in action.

“I want to learn about it and see about it,” he said. “I’ve seen some ads about Mecalac and I want to be able to look at it firsthand and put some hands on it.”

Baker added what most intrigued him about the Mecalac line was the equipment’s reach and lift ability and capacity.

“Some of the optional abilities you have with this equipment you do not have with a regular excavator,” he said, adding that he was most interested in the 8MCR crawler skid

excavator.

Dan Potteiger of C&S Mulch & Stone, Mechanicsburg, Pa., is already the owner of a Mecalac AX1000 articulated loader and visited Woods CRW to check out other Mecalac models.

“I get everything done loading my trucks a lot more efficiently, quickly and quietly,”

he said about hisAX1000. “It is easy to get in and out of and the visibility is better. I was running a skid machine compared to a wheel loader … this is a night and day comparison.”  CEG

Anderson Equipment Showcases MecalacinBridgeville,Pa.

Mecalac, a global designer, manufacturer and distributor of compact construction equipment, recently signed Anderson Equipment Company as its authorized dealer serving Western Pennsylvania, New York and West Virginia.

The announcement was quickly followed by an equipment demonstration open house event held June 13, 2023, at Anderson Equipment Company’s headquarters location in Bridgeville, Pa.

“The addition of Mecalac compact wheeled excavators and compact crawler skid excavators expands the range of our equipment offerings and strengthens our market position as an equipment-based solution provider for our customers,” said John Boy Jr., finance and sales administration manager of Anderson Equipment Company. “In addition, the design and build quality of Mecalac machines fits with the caliber of world-class equipment Anderson is known for.”

Although a fairly recent entry to the U.S. market, Francebased Mecalac has been manufacturing its line of wheel excavators, crawler excavators and wheel loaders for more than 40 years, building a strong reputation and gaining wide distribution in Europe. The manufacturer’s first foray into the United States came in 2016 when it signed Lorusso Heavy Equipment as its first dealer in the United States. A Mecalac equipment exhibit at the 2017 ConExpo followed, garnering significant interest from both end users and equipment dealers at the show.

Anderson Equipment Company had several models of both wheeled and crawler Mecalac machines on display and demonstrated during the event.Area contractors and municipal maintenance personnel attending Anderson Equipment Company’s demonstration event were impressed.A common theme was the versatility of the machines, with one machine capable of doing the work of both an excavator and a skid steer. Attendees also noted the speed at which the machines got around the worksite, combined with Mecalac’s hydraulic quick coupler, which allows the operator to switch out attachments in under a minute.

One of Anderson Equipment Company’s customers, in particular, was especially thrilled that the dealership has added the Mecalac line. Five years ago, Dave Hapchuk of Hapchuk Inc., a septic and wastewater management company, purchased his first Mecalac 6MCR crawler skid-excavator after learning about the machines online. At the time, Hapchuk had to travel to New Jersey to reach the nearest Mecalac dealer to purchase his machine. Hapchuk said soon after purchasing his first Mecalac, he knew he needed another.

“These machines didn’t increase productivity in terms of hours — we gained weeks,” he said. “These machines are incredibly fast and versatile and they have impressive lifting capacity and exceptional reach. I’ve worked with Anderson Equipment Company for years, and now having a Mecalac dealer I know and trust right around the corner is a real plus.”

According to Hapchuk Inc. operator, Jason Dever, who spends a lot of time on job sites with the company’s Mecalac 6MCR crawler skid-excavator, “The functionality of an excavator combined with skid steer capabilities provides outstanding versatility. With fork attachments, it can even function as a telehandler.”

Demonstration machines included a Mecalac 6MCR

crawler skid-excavator. Depending on how the boom is deployed and the attachment used, the MCR series can function as a skid steer loader or an excavator. With a total operating weight of 12,600 lbs./13,500 lbs. and powered by a 75 hp Deutz engine, the 6MCR can move around the job site at 6.2 mph, twice as fast as a comparable excavator.

The speed, stability and lifting power of Mecalac’s 9MWR wheel excavators also were demonstrated at the event. The MWR wheel excavator series, consisting of 7MWR, 9MWR and 11MWR models, offer speed in a compact footprint. The smallest of the three, the 7MWR, offers variable speed between 0 and 19 mph. Standard travel speeds for the 9MWR and 11MWR range between 0 and 12 mph with an option for enhanced speed up to 22 mph on the 9MWR and up to 19 mph on the 11MWR.

Combining speed with the series’ versatility offers significant benefits in terms of productivity and efficiency. With a center of gravity 20 percent lower than other models, the MWR’s high ground clearance doesn’t sacrifice stability and four-wheel steering features a turn radius 2.5 times more compact than traditional wheel excavators. A 75-hp (55.4-kW) engine is standard on each model. All of the MWR series are capable of an impressive lifting capacity ratio, with the smallest model able to lift 3 metric tons at 10 ft. through 360 degrees.

Applications for both the MCR and MWR series include construction, hardscape, infrastructure, landscape, municipal maintenance, septic work, supply yards and utility work.

Founded in 1935, Anderson Equipment Company has steadily grown beyond its Western Pennsylvania beginnings and currently operates 18 locations spanning Pennsylvania, Maine, New Hampshire, New York, Vermont and West Virginia. Along with the new addition of Mecalac to its equipment offerings, Anderson Equipment Company is the authorized dealer for Komatsu, Takeuchi, Dynapac, FAE, Gradall, Hydrema, Morooka, Sennebogen, Rotobec and a wide range of application specific attachments and its various locations.

Corey Berkheimer has been promoted to executive vice president/chief sales officer.

Berkheimer was appointed to his new role on Jan. 1, 2023. He will oversee all sales, rental and marketing operations throughout the 12 Groff Tractor & Equipment branches.

Berkheimer has more than 20 years of experience with Groff Tractor & Equipment leading and managing successful sales teams, developing and executing sales strategies, building strong customer relationships and driving revenue growth.

Berkheimer started as a compact sales representative in 2002, moving into a key account manager role, then regional sales director, and ultimately into the position of regional VP/GM of central Pennsylvania.

Steve Weikert

SteveWeikert is the senior vice president/general manager who oversees four branches in central Pennsylvania.

Weikert has been with Groff Tractor and Equipment for 21 years. He started as a territory sales manager in 2002, moved to sales manager in 2005, and became general manager of Ephrata for several years. He was promoted into the VP/GM role for all aspects of the business within his four locations.

When customers visit any of Highway Equipment Company’s seven locations, they’ll likely see a sign posted with an abbreviated version of the company’s mission statement; Solution Partners,UrgentAboutUptime,andAJoyto Work With.

While the signs are relatively new, the philosophy has been the driving force behindthecompany’scontinuedsuccessand growth since its doors first opened 90 years ago.

Highway Equipment Company celebrated its 90th anniversary with a two-day open house event at its headquarters location in Zelienople, Pa., on June 2 and 3, 2023. The family-friendly event served to thank the dealership’s loyal customers and dedicated employees while showcasing the dealership’s equipment lines. Visitors were invited to visit with Highway Equipment

Company’s sales, service and administrative personnel and meet with manufacturer representatives from the dealership’s many equipment lines.

Those wishing to get a hands-on experience operating some of the equipment were encouraged to visit the demonstration area set up in the back portion of the property. The “Take Your Child to Work” portion of the event provided entertainment for children with face painting and a play area complete with toy construction equipment. A hearty lunch was available for all in attendance.

Established by Daniel “Lee” Reynolds Sr. in 1933, the company is now in its third generation of family ownership and management with Lee Reynold’s grand-

WirtgenMachinesRehabilitateCircuitdeSpa-Francorchamps

The challenging Spa-Francorchamps race track in Belgium was rehabilitated with the aim of enhancing its attractiveness to spectators and, above all, of improving the safety of racing drivers.

The Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps construction project posed particular challenges to all involved, as the track was not a design fresh from the drawing board, as is usually the case, but has been in existence for more than 100 years and includes ordinary roads.

CEO Jarno Zaffelli, whose company Dromo Circuit Design delivered the project, emphasized how very demanding this rehabilitation task is — due in particular to the undulating nature of the circuit.

There are extreme sections featuring gradients of 20 percent, such as the legendary combination of the Eau Rouge and Raidillon corners. A further challenge was presented by the hairpin bend La Source (“the spring”), because spring water gets on to the road surface there.

To ensure maximum driver safety on the tough Circuit de SpaFrancorchamps, extremely stringent conditions in terms of evenness and grip were applied to the

asphalt surface course.

Experience, Know-How Key to Winning Race for Quality

Belgian company Bodarwé was contracted to complete the asphalt paving. The variations in level around the winding race track

presented a challenge to the paving team, as well as to racing drivers.

“We have been working with contractors that use Wirtgen Group machinery for many years. We know the machines very well, and are familiar with what they deliver in terms of quality and reliability,” said Zaffelli.

Stringent Demands Deliver Optimum Results When Paving Surface Course

The project was to pave a new surface course extending 553 yds. from the Eau Rouge valley up to the famous sweeping Formula 1 corner at Raidillon. Another 225 yd. section was to be paved in the area of the T9Car Formula 1 corner to the north, as well as 767 yds. of surfacing for the new T8Moto and T9Moto motorcycle race corners.

The following requirements were imposed on the paving team to ensure that the sections were completed to the best possible standard:

• Paving had to proceed nonstop, at a rate of between 9.8 ft. and 13.1 ft. per minute.

• The temperature of the asphalt mix was set at 356 degrees in order to maintain a sufficiently large compaction window even at the low ambient temperatures prevailing at that time.

• A further requirement was that the temperature of the paved surface course should be fully monitored and documented.

The Benninghoven TBA 4000 plant was the first to be produced at the new Benninghoven facility in Wittlich.

The legendary Raidillon uphill sweeping Formula 1 corner, with its 20 percent gradient, is one of the great challenges for the paving operation. The new spectator stand is at the top of the hill. Three SUPER 1800-3i pavers paved the surface course without joints using the hot-to-hot process. see WIRTGEN page 40

Crews Use SpecialAsphalt Mix On Formula 1 Track Surface

Industry for 30 Years

Benninghoven: Special Plant for Special Mix

The composition of the asphalt mix is key to the quality of a Formula 1 track surface. The formula, code-named “Le Noir,” was developed by Dromo especially for Spa-Francorchamps in accordance with the regulations of the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile Internationale (FIA). It is a well-kept secret.

The material was mixed in the asphalt mixing plant belonging to Bordarwé subsidiary Boreta S.A. The Benninghoven TBA4000 plant is characterized by the highest quality and production standards, as well as by a wide range of options.

Three Vögele SUPER 1800-3is Equipped With Big MultiPlex Ski

Once the surface course in the relevant sections had been removed by a Wirtgen W 220i cold milling machine complete with LEVEL PRO ACTIVE milling depth regulator and 3D controller, three Vögele SUPER 1800-3i machines were deployed. The task was to pave three 13.5 ft. to 14.1 ft. strips without joints using the tried-and-tested hot-to-hot method.

The three pavers were each equipped with an AB 500 TV extending screed and a Big MultiPlex Ski to ensure maximum longitudinal evenness. Three multi-cell sonic sensors were fitted to the variable carriers of the Big MultiPlex Ski, each scanning the binder course and adjacent surface course to ensure precision paving.

Full Control With WITOS Paving Docu, Roadscan

The three pavers were equipped with WITOS Paving Docu, incorporating the RoadScan temperature measurement sys-

tem, to monitor and document the paving temperature. The system not only recorded the asphalt temperature, but also the other paving parameters: geometry, area, distance and volume of asphalt paved.

Bodarwé’s construction manager Sébastien Dandrifosse was very pleased: “WITOS Paving Docu is ideal for monitoring temperature directly on-site; where we need the information, so that we can counteract any deviation immediately.”

Teamwork for Supreme Class Machines and people worked together at the highest levels on the legendary race track in the BelgianArdennes. The demands were great, but the operators were able to master all the challenges with their machinery and the technology. The race track design team were also impressed by the support provided by the Wirtgen Group, as summed up by Jarno Zaffelli.

“The backup from their technical team was very good, and extremely important. It is very reassuring to have experts like that by your side when running a paving operation that can’t easily be redone.”

BOMAGAmericas Raises Money for ConstructionAngels During ConExpo

BOMAG Americas raised more than $6,400 during the ConExpo-Con/AGG 2023 show to support Construction Angels, a 501(C)3 non-profit organization.

ConstructionAngels was founded by Kristi Gibbs and its mission is to provide immediate financial assistance and grief counseling to the children and spouse left behind when a construction worker has a fatality on the job site. ConstructionAngels offers construction scholarship opportunities to qualified applicants, and additional scholarships to surviving children of fallen workers. The organization also focuses on promoting job site safety awareness.

To support Construction Angels, BOMAG Americas dedicated a portion of its ConExpo 2023 booth space to run a t-shirt campaign. BOMAG asked attendees to give a minimum five-dollar donation in exchange for a BOMAGbranded t-shirt.There were five different t-shirt styles available, and they all featured the outline of a BOMAG machine or service icon on the front and a fun product- or

service-related saying on the back. Some of the sayings were “I Eat Asphalt for Lunch” (Mills), “Keep Rollin’ Rollin’ Rollin’” (Asphalt Rollers) and “Who Needs a Manual?” (Service).

“BOMAG is excited to be partnering again with ConstructionAngelsandlooksforwardtofuturecampaigns as well. It’s amazing being able to represent such a great foundation on top of collecting over $6,400 in donations to help families of road construction workers who have lost their lives in work-related accidents. It’s a great cause and it reflects BOMAG’s core initiatives promoting jobsite safety awareness,” said Dena Jenkins, BOMAG manager, marketing & communications.

BOMAG plans to continue its relationship with Construction Angels.

Rosco’s Electric Maximizer 2 Reduces Carbon Footprint

does not require an additional battery, and has proven performance with the generator that is being used as it is the same generator featured in the LeeBoy 8520 asphalt pavers.

“This machine was specifically designed to reduce the use of diesel and help contractors lower their carbon footprint,” Broome said. “We are taking power off of the engine and converting it into electricity for the two heating elements.”

Flameless, Reliable Heat = Improved Productivity

Not only is this flameless heat reliable, it will also help contractors improve their productivity each day, the manufacturer said.

“With flame type burners, whether they’re propane or diesel, you can’t heat while you’re driving and one of the big bonuses with the Electric Maximizer 2 is you’ll be able to run the generator to heat or maintain heat while you’re driving to the job site,” Broome said. “This will all but eliminate the downtime needed to heat material once you’ve arrived at the job site.”

Once the truck is powered off for the night, the machine is plugged into 240 VAC (50 Amp) single phase shop power. The electric elements will maintain material temperature without the use of diesel.

“The material temperature is thermostatically controlled so it’s only heating when it needs to, keeping the material at the target temperature at all times,” Broome said.

Electric Max 2 Asphalt Distributor at a Glance

• 12 ft. fully circulating folding spray bar

• 13 kW generator powering two 6KW heating elements

• Maintains heat during travel, overnight and on the job

• 77.7K BTU oil cooler

• On-board heat control panel

• Automatic in-cab controls

• 400 gallons per minute Viking asphalt pump

• Enviro-Flush clean out system

Mecalac Compact Wheeled Excavators Available to NorthAmerican Market

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

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

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

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

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

Each of the three models in the MWR series offers speed in a compact footprint. The smallest of the three, the 7MWR, offers variable speed between 0 and 19 mph. Two of the larger models, the 9MWR and 11MWR, provide contractors standard travel speeds between 0 and 12 mph with an option for enhanced speed up to 22 mph on the 9MWR and up to 19 mph on the 11MWR. The speed in combination with the versatility of these machines provide operations with substantial benefits in productivity and efficiency by significantly reducing travel time on the job site and between jobs.

The MWR series machines have a center of gravity that is 20 percent lower than other models while still maintaining a high ground clearance. The unique combination ensures exceptional stability even while operating offroad and on slopes and simultaneously reduces the risk of undercarriage damage from obstacles on the ground, according to the manufacturer.

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

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

Using Mecalac’s hydraulic quick coupler,

transitions between attachments such as buckets or forks can be made in under a minute from inside the cab. Equipped with a set of forks, the MWR machines can replace a telescopic handler or rough terrain forklift and another operator. The Mecalac boom system even allows for unloading pallets below grade.

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

“By combining a compact footprint with a balanced design that is powerful, versatile and user-friendly, the MWR Series achieves higher levels of productivity than ever before, making it a valuable addition to any job site. There are wheeled excavators, and there are Mecalac MWR wheeled excavators.”

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

FergusonEquipmentandTrailerSales Fills Need With Its New High Lift Kit

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

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

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

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

“We plan on continuing to expand this part of our business, adding more models all the time,” said Ferguson. “The first one we fabricated for the John Deere 444K is still in use today and working great. Lead times are very reasonable, and we can do custom work, as well. We can build a high lift kit for any loader we sell.”

The bolt-on C.F. High Lift Kit provides additional reach and is designed to give high lift capabilities to a standard loader, adding 12 in. to 16 in. of extra reach depending on the machine. Installation only takes approximately a half-hour and requires no cutting or welding, and the high lift kit attaches to a machine with just a few bolts, according to the company.

“For decades, the L350 has been our flagship loader,” said Eric Yeomans, product manager, wheel loaders, Volvo CE. “We’ve taken a tried-and-true machine and built upon the features that have made it one our customers rely on day after day. These upgrades make it even more efficient and productive.”

Evolution of Excellence

One of the more notable improvements on the updated L350H wheel loader is a more responsive hydraulics system featuring new lift and tilt cylinders, and an increased hydraulic working pressure for 10 percent faster work cycles and higher productivity.

The upgraded driveline features new Volvo axles and an all-new Volvo transmission, which enables the third-generation OptiShift to be equipped as standard. Already found on Volvo L110H to L260H wheel loaders, this proven technology integrates the Reverse by Braking function and the lockup function in transmission to boost fuel efficiency by up to 15 percent.

Efficiency is further enhanced by an optimized gear shifting ratio and a new converter that delivers outputs of up to 22 percent more tractive force depending on the selected gear and machine speed.

The machine also boasts an even tougher form with a more robust upper center hinge bearing and updated frames to accommodate the new axles and transmission.

The L350H comes equipped for heavy-duty applications as standard, due to the proven Z-bar lifting arm with double sealing on each of the pins, and strong frame structure, which is joined by a reinforced upper center hinge and new Volvo axles. Customers can take advantage of specialized packages that come with specific features for log loading, rock loading, rehandling, block handling or slag handling.

Partner in Productivity

The updates also include extended service intervals that increase uptime and reduce maintenance costs. The engine service interval has doubled to 1,000 hours, and axle oil

New TechAvailable for DEVELON -7 Series Wheel Loaders

DEVELON is introducing new innovative technologies on its next-generation -7 Series wheel loaders in North America. Technologies previewed during ConExpoCon/AGG 2023 help to improve operator productivity, visibility and safety.

Technologies including the transparent bucket, around view monitor (AVM) camera system and object detection are offered as standard on all next-generation machines, from the DL200-7 through the DL580-7, helping operators get the job done in the most challenging conditions today and in the future.

“DEVELON is the only construction equipment manufacturer in the industry with the transparent bucket technology,” said Bill Zak, wheel loader product manager. “When it’s paired with theAVM, our 2023 -7 Series wheel loaders will help operators and owners be more productive while increasing their visibility and safety.”

Exclusive Transparent Bucket Technology

The exclusive transparent bucket technology is an innovative construction equipment technology that helps minimize blind spots for wheel loader operators when the bucket is raised, the manufacturer said.

“The transparent bucket technology offers a supplemental view from a monitor inside the wheel loader cab,” said Zak. “The system has two cameras with protective guarding, one mounted high on the cab and one mounted low on the axle on the front of the machine. The system’s processor automatically adjusts the camera inputs into a single image that makes the bucket appear transparent on an in-cab monitor.”

With an unobstructed view in front of the

wheel loader bucket, operators can see objects such as large rocks, construction materials, obstacles and even people in front of the machine — objects that would otherwise be obstructed from view by the bucket. Since operators can “see through” the wheel loader bucket, it helps them efficiently dig into and precisely place material where it needs to go. This technology helps maximize productivity on the most challenging job sites.

According to a report published in March 2023 by the Center for Construction Research and Training, 17 percent of fatal injuries in construction from 2011 to 2021 were “struck by” fatalities.This type of fatality is defined as an “injury in which a person is struck by a vehicle, object or equipment.”

New technology from DEVELON can potentially help reduce these fatalities with increased operator visibility to the job site.

Around View Monitor Camera System

For additional visibility and safety on job sites, DEVELON -7 Series wheel loaders have an AVM camera system. Three cameras and several sensors are mounted on the rear of the wheel loader, giving operators up to 270 degrees of enhanced visibility.

“If there’s an object eight to 12 feet behind the machine, a flashing green caution box will appear, notifying the wheel loader operator,” said Zak. “A yellow caution box will show up if the object is four to eight feet and a red triangle and red border notification if the object is closer than four feet.”

When wheel loader operators combine the AVM camera system, floor-to-ceiling side cab windows and the transparent bucket technology, they have nearly 360 degrees of visibility. This level of visibility can help reduce the possibility of the operator hitting

another object on a busy job site.

Other Smart Technologies

The 2023 -7 Series wheel loaders are designed with other smart technology features that owners and operators can use to make meaningful improvements to the productivity of their operations.

• DEVELON Fleet Management telematics system makes it easy for owners to monitor their fleet and manage maintenance to reduce operating costs. Using a smartphone, tablet or computer, owners can check machine location, operating hours, fuel usage, engine idle versus work time, error codes, engine and hydraulic oil temperature and various other data points.

• SituationAwareness Technology (SAT) automatically monitors the machine’s activity and adjusts the wheel loader engine’s output to match real-time requirements of the hydraulic system and drivetrain.

• Smart Guidance System analyzes operator driving habits and provides tips during operation on the Smart Touch display to improve their efficiency.

• Load Isolation System (LIS) improves wheel loader stability while moving, which can reduce cycle times, increase productivity and boost fuel efficiency.

• Smart Load weighing system tells the operator the weight of material in the buck-

In addition to smart technologies, the 2023 -7 Series have cabs equipped with comfort features, increased bucket capacities and new fuel-saving technologies. 

change intervals have been extended to 4,000 hours due to an axle oil cooler with filtration fitted as standard.

Customers can further minimize machine downtime and increase component life with durable features that include heavy-duty axles with fully floating shafts, planetary hub reduction and maintenance-free rear axle trunnion bearings.

Productivity features like the Load Assist suite of apps that are accessed from the incab Volvo Co-Pilot display further improve efficiency and uptime. The optional Tire Pressure Monitoring System enables the pressure and temperature of the tires to be checked from the comfort of the cab; this extends tire life and saves on fuel consumption. The On-Board Weighing app provides real-time insight into the load of the bucket and payload of the load receiver. And the Operator Coaching app provides real-time information and guidance to operators, helping them deliver optimum productivity while cutting back on fuel use and machine wear, the manufacturer said.

Aportfolio of complementary Volvo serv-

ices, including EcoOperator training and ActiveCare Direct advanced telematics, also provide valuable insights for lowering cost per ton and making impactful changes to the way the machine is run.

Comfort Guaranteed

The upgraded L350H wheel loader provides an enhanced operator experience with top-of-the-line comfort, convenience and safety. In addition to a standard remote-controlled door, air conditioning and secondary steering system, the L350H offers outstanding visibility complemented by optional electrically adjusted heated rearview mirrors, a rearview camera and a radar detect system.

Operators can configure the L350H for the job at hand with a choice of three hydraulic modes, customizable lockup engagement and rimpull control. Plus, the bucket leveling function automatically returns the bucket to level — from both dump and curl positions — helping to reduce operator fatigue.

destroyed back open so commerce and travelers could resume their lives.”

This aggressive schedule meant bridge reconstruction would be impossible. Instead, project planners decided to have the debris and bridge removed and an asphalt road built where the destruction had occurred.

Cleanup in Three Days

PennDOT called on C.Abbonizio Contractors to handle the first step. The contractor, headquartered in nearby New Jersey, handled clean up in just three days. The north deck of the bridge had collapsed on the roadway, so Abbonizio cut the deck into pieces and hauled it away. Workers for the firm then cut up the otherdamagedsectionsandhauledit off site for crushing and later recycling. The heat from the original accident and the explosion was so intense that much of the material, including the rebar was pulverized.

“Abbonizio got in and got out quickly, so we could rapidly move on to the next step,” said Gleason.

To get a rebuilt roadway open in record time, workers constructed three lanes, each 11-ft. wide with a shoulder. The highway will have a standard construction for the median. The traffic is being pushed to the inside, while the outside lanes are being built. The final stage will move traffic to the newly built asphalt lanes to allow sufficient room for constructing the other lanes.

“This is a temporary fix, and we are already making plans for a more permanent solution,” said Gleason. “We have ordered the beams and have done the design for a new bridge, but with supply chain issues, we are not sure when we will be able to start on

a new four-lane road.”

The old road was just 10 years old and PennDOT plans to mimic construction of similar roads in the state.

The work for rebuilding a new road will require ordering the new beams, cleaning up the parapet walls and doing hydro demolition to remove inadequate material. Once this is complete, work crews will rebuild the back wall and pedestals. The team will then do more demolition to the remaining approach slabs before installing new dams, new bearing pads and new beams.

The next steps will include Installing the new deck with rebar. The workers will pour new concrete slab and approaches. They will then form the rebar and pour the new parapet walls and median barrier. This is all on the outside portion of the bridge. Finally, workers will restripe the lanes and open them to traffic on the new outside lanes. This work will be repeated on the inside lanes and full traffic on the new roadway will resume.

The current work required 200 tons of steel and more than 1,500 tons of reinforced concrete. The road used 15,000 cu. yds. of lightweight recycled glass aggregate. This lightweight aggregate was mainly used to reduce the dead load, since there are two storm sewers underneath the Cottman Ave. roadway.

Gleason and the project team considered manyoptionsbeforedecidingtobuildaroad with flexible pavements as it looked like the fastest solution.

“It will be tricky making the proper tie-ins from asphalt to the concrete roadway, but our contractor is prepared for it. That team

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

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

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

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

The center reported Florida loaded $4 billion into its project general fund, while Hawaii instituted a new usage fee for electric vehicles.

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

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

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

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

Where Money Is Coming From

In addition to IIJA earmarks, states are going through surplus general funds, COVID relief and bonds to get projects off the ground.

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

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

“The expenditure is influenced by readiness of state governments to move quickly,” Joseph Schofer, Northwestern University, told Yahoo. “Those that were better organized — had their priorities lined up and projects ready to go — will show larger expenditures early.”

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

Funding Floodgates Opened or Closed?

Many in Washington argue that a divided federal government will put a stop to big policy measures such as infrastructure funding.

“It’s true that a divided Congress should mean a less productive and less ambitious legislative calendar,” wrote the Brookings Institute. “But Washington has only begun to execute all the work created by the previous Congress — and nowhere is that more true than infrastructure policy.”

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

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

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

challenging economic conditions could limit the number of projects that get completed.”

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

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

The IIJA’s one-year anniversary rolled around last fall, marking a low point in terms of expected annual spending, said Brookings. Funding recipients have had to update capital spending plans to higher levels and write rules for the many new federal programs.

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

Measured by total funding awarded by federal agencies, formula programs received 92 percent of the IIJA’s first-year awards. Every state saw more than 80 percent of total awards distributed through formula programs. And state governments are the primary beneficiaries of these formula programs.

States directly receive these funds through Federal Highway Administration programs

and the EPA. State-controlled funding will grow as the $42.5 billion Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment (BEAD) formula funding starts to move, noted Brookings.

The institute pointed out that that’s not to say competitive grants aren’t sizable or important.

“Major awards … are all significant projects that can influence economic activity and environmental performance for decades to come.”

Competitive grants also are attractive for cities, counties and other local governments, said Brookings. These government entities prize direct access to federal funding, without the need for allocations from their states.

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

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

“State officials control larger pots of funding and may not require detailed applications to access that funding,” the institute said. “By contrast, federal competitive programs

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

JESCO, Rutgers Form Partnership to IntroduceAthletestoConstructionIndustry

JESCO, a John Deere, Wirtgen Group, Ditch Witch and Topcon dealer in New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia and New England region, and Rutgers Athletics announced a new partnership in conjunction with JESCO’s mission statement of strengthening the communities we serve.

Jon Robustelli, president of JESCO, said “Jersey is in our name so the chance to partner with New Jersey’s state university is in itself exciting, but what separates Rutgers Athletics is their focus on not just developing world class athletes but world class individuals.”

As part of this new relationship, JESCO has committed to working with Rutgers Athletics to develop a “Life After Athletics” program

focused at helping graduating athletes transition to the work force via internship and professional development opportunities both during and after their athletic careers. Additionally, JESCO is committed to helping introduce the next generation to the con-

struction industry.

According to Robustelli “there are a lot of great careers within the construction industry both with JESCO and our customers.”

He went on to say, “just look at ConExpo and how quickly the industry has and will continue to evolve — this next generation has a lot to be excited about within the construction industry.”

“We are excited to welcome JESCO on board as a valued partner,” said Lisa Tirrell, Rutgers associate athletic director, brand marketing and business development. “This will prove to be a great partnership between the state university and a great New Jersey company. We look forward to working with JESCO.”

will also be working around the leftover bridge supports, as well.”

The paving aspect of the project proceeded on schedule, using a standard 10 in. of base, 2.5 in. of binder, topped with a 1.5-in. wearing course. The temporary asphalt paving was Superpave.

Workers used Gravix retaining wall system to construct firm retaining walls quickly and smoothly. The system uses cranes to position decorative precast blocks, much like a stone mason would build a traditional stone wall. The approach is in contrast to a traditional concrete pour for retaining walls.

“This is a remarkable project to get done so quickly,” said Gleason. “I’m not sure that it has ever been done before in PennDOT history.”

The brainpower and muscle power on the project helped make

Pennsylvania Gov. Shapiro’s hopes possible that he spoke at the beginning of the project.

“We have worked around the clock to get this done, and we’ve completed each phase safely and ahead of schedule,” he said. “That’s all due to the

incredible coordination with our local, state and federal partners — and thanks to the hard-working men and women of the Philadelphia Building and Trades, who are making this happen.” 

ARTBA: More Than 36K Projects Have Moved Forward

are typically smaller and over-subscribed.”

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

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

Industry Helping Push Funds Along

The construction industry itself has a big part to play in the transition from numbers on paper to boots on the ground. Contractor organizations, such asARTBA, are pulling a chair up to the funding table in praise of IIJA.

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

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

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

New and well-meaning IIJArequirements related to expansion of BuyAmerica are creating challenges of their own, added Hammond.

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

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

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

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

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

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

“The reality is that Congress mostly left state and local infrastructure owners and

operators to solve talent issues on their own.”

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

“First, they cannot find enough new talent

— particularly younger workers, who may not know these careers exist.”

This same pool of potential workers may lack flexible training pathways to enter the field. Workers under the age of 24 represent only 11 percent of the country’s infrastruc-

ture workforce, the institute noted.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Cratos Offers Its Solution to Help Combat Labor Issues

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

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

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

Battery-Powered Equipment Helps Solve Labor Shortage

How can buying more machines help you?

It’s simple, according to Cratos Equipment. One machine does the work of three to five laborers. With the right equipment, says Cratos, contractors can have all the labor they need, which leads to having the capability of

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

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

Is It Safe to Use Skid Steers Indoors?

When they are 100 percent battery-powered, they are perfectly safe, according to Cratos Equipment. The company added that its mini-excavator also can be safely operated indoors to greatly increase productivity, all while not exposing laborers to harmful toxins. Battery-powered means no emissions, which is highly important when doing interior demolition jobs. Cratos said if battery-powered equipment is not used for those jobs sites, contractors either need to spend time preparing ventilation systems to keep workers safe or hire even more workers.

How Much Maintenance Does Battery-Powered Equipment Need?

According to Cratos Equipment, “next to no maintenance is needed a with battery-powered equipment.

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

Decarbonization Efforts...

Skanska USA, AGC Create Task Force to Reduce Emissions in ConstructionIndustry

Skanska USA, one of the world’s largest development and construction companies, announced it has co-created the newly formed Associated General Contractors of America (AGC) Task Force on Decarbonization and Carbon Reporting, to address the challenges around reporting and reducing carbon emissions in the construction industry.

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

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

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

“The committee will develop a guidebook to help contractors understand how to calculate and report emissions, and how to set actionable goals as they play an instrumental role in addressing climate change. We look forward to being part of a process that reduces the industry’s environmental impact and creates more resilient communities.”

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

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

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

CNH Industrial N.V. Announces New Senior Leadership TeamAppointment

ASV, an industry-leading brand of all-purpose and all-season compact track loaders and skid steers, celebrates 40 years of innovative product design this year for its anniversary.

The pioneer in the compact track loader market celebrated the occasion with an open house event at its Grand Rapids, Minn., facility earlier in June. The event featured a full lineup of legacy and new ASV models, tours of the factory, food and refreshments and various family activities and giveaways.

“Talk to any of our longtime staff — and there are many — and you’ll find that the same passion for the products exists now as it did on day one,” said Tate Johnson, president of the Yanmar Compact Equipment North

America, which encompasses the ASV brand.

“This anniversary and today’s continually innovative ASV products are proof that the brand’s entrepreneurial spirit lives on.”

ASV’s drive for innovation has been clear since its founding in 1983. Two forerunners in the early snowmobile industry started the business, developing a pick-up-sized rubbertracked vehicle called the Track Truck as ASV’s first product. The equipment was built for snowmobile trail grooming and was meant for traveling over adverse ground conditions. However, it didn’t take long for the manufacturer to begin using its experience to develop the first PosiTrack rubber tracked compact track loader in 1990.

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

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

CNH Industrial N.V. announced the appointment of Friedrich Eichler as chief technology officer (CTO). He will preside over the R&D community with direct responsibility for technology, innovation, quality, design and their related divisions

Eichler will provide functional governance for the agriculture and construction segments’ product development — coordinating closely with Segment Presidents Derek Neilson (agriculture) and Stefano Pampalone (construction). He also will work hand-in-hand with Marc Kermisch, chief digital & information officer, to seamlessly integrate the precision, digital and autonomy solutions across the company’s equipment portfolios.

Eichler has more than 30 years of experience in automotive engineering with some of the world’s biggest carmakers, including Volkswagen Group and Mercedes-Benz Group. He has grown to roles of increasing responsibility, including leading the development of advanced powertrains and innovative technologies.

He assumes his CTO role in CNH Industrial from Kermisch, who previously served on an ad interim basis.

“We are delighted to bring Fredrich’s expertise to CNHIndustrial. I am confident his leadership and technical acumen will further enhance and accelerate improvements across our R&D organization to further propel our advanced engineering capabilities and overall platform strategy,” said Scott W. Wine, chief executive officer at CNH Industrial. For more information, visit www.cnhindustrial.com. 
