“For CVCC, we have several programs that fall into this area such as electrical, welding, maintenance, solar, and other renewable energies, electrical vehicles and related programs there,” he said.

“Our infrastructure workforce demands are growing daily, and initiatives like the [VIA] will help ensure that skilled and qualified people are available for hire, leading to a best-in-class workforce in Virginia.”

To give a financial lift to the VIA, the Lumina Foundation is funding the acade my’s start-up costs with a two-year, $400,000 grant. The gift will support an initial review of existing infrastructure pro grams across Virginia’s community col lege system, a plan for program growth through in-person and virtual offerings, and outreach to potential students, accord ing to a news release.

to receive at least $10 bil lion from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, passed by Congress and signed into law by President Biden last November, with more funding expected to come through competitive grants and other measures. Companies within the commonwealth already are struggling to fill more than 100,000 infrastructure jobs, the Augusta (Va.) Free Press reported.

“The availability of a trained, skilled workforce continues to stand out as a sig nificant challenge to infrastructure con struction and maintenance industries in the commonwealth,” Sharon Morrissey, inter im chancellor of VCCS, explained in a statement. “Through the VIAinitiative, we will continue to leverage resources, expand collaboration and provide short-term industry training and credentials leading to employment for thousands of Virginians.”

Private Funding Also Boosting VIA’s Efforts

Students Need to Understand Their Options

Ferguson added that CVCC will contin ue to try to meet the labor requirements of businesses as they are looking toward the future.“As businesses let us know what those [wants] are, then it’s our job to try to figure out how to meet those training needs,” he noted.

The Virginia Infrastructure Academy, or VIA, announced Aug. 11 that it will coor dinate, scale up and replicate successful infrastructure-related community college training programs from other areas of the country, which now produce 4,000 gradu ates each year, with a goal of producing a total of 35,000 qualified workers over the next five Virginiayears.isset

According to Morrissey, the VIA aligns community colleges with business leaders to ensure that existing training programs are addressing urgent community needs and identifying future requirements for expansion.Among the programs are heavy con struction and maintenance, focusing on road, bridge and tunnel building; broad band expansion; and on- and off-shore wind and solar energy infrastructure and distribution — all of which lead to highpaying jobs, and better career advancement opportunities, she said.

“This is vital to the success of many Virginia businesses,” noted Virginia Secretary of Labor George “Bryan” Slater.

Lumina is an independent, private foun dation, based in Indianapolis, Ind., that is committed to creating opportunities for students who want to learn beyond high school.VCCS noted that people who choose to pursue training in a high-demand infra structure field may find them to be among the most affordable options in higher edu cation today..

Virginia’s Community College system (VCCS), made up of 23 school across the commonwealth, introduced a new program to train thousands of workers to help rebuild the state’s aging roads and bridges and bring much needed upgrades to air ports, ports and utilities statewide.

Jason Ferguson, associate vice president of professional and career studies at Lynchburg’s Central Virginia Community College (CVCC), told the Lynchburg News &Advance that it is a matter of mak ing sure students have information about VIA and its benefits.

Financial aid programs like FastForward and G3, among others, often allow stu dents to pursue and complete these pro grams for little or no out-of-pocket costs, according to VCCS.

Unique Geometric Shaping Techniques

Bette Poblete, a graduate research assistant in civil engineering at UA who was conducting the stress test, noted it was one of the more interesting beam shapes she had encountered.“Ordinarily, we test rectangular beams,” she said. “There are a couple reasons we do this: it simplifies some of our calculations and makes the construction more straightforward. In terms of calculations, we rely on the geometric dimensions to help predict the strength of the beams. Before we test any member, we calculate the predicted load at which it will fail. Then, we’ll compare our predicted loads to the actual loads. Since we use simpler shapes ordinarily, it makes the entire process easier.”

Baker is both an Arkansas graduate and a current assistant professor in the Fay Jones School of Architecture and Design, while Harriss is a clinical assistant professor in math in the university’s Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences. Together, they have been working on what they have dubbed the “Zip-Form” system. It arose out of an art project Harriss created through the Honors College, which ultimately became the 12-ft.-tall Curvahedra sculpture outside UA’s Gearhart Hall — a spherical structure composed of a few curving steel strands.

“I am deeply interested in exploring and innovating new ways of making physical objects and buildings,” Baker explained.Assuch, making Harriss’ sculpture a reality posed a fun challenge for her. She ultimately created a jig, or clamping setup, to allow flat sections to be successfully attached, or “zipped,” into curving steel forms. This method, paired with Harriss’ computational formulations, became the basis for their Zip-Form construction system, producing highly accurate 3D curves with simplified fabrication techniques.

In terms of testing Ismail’s beam, Poblete added, “This beam was longer than we usually test, so getting it into our load frame posed a fun challenge. We ended up using our crane and forklift simultaneously to place it on our supports. Also, since the beam was trapezoidal at the ends, we had to be especially careful not to chip the corners.”

The efficient and economical software and manufacturing process proved so novel that the university, through its Technology Ventures office, later filed a provisional patent.

On a recent July day, representatives from the University of Arkansas (UA) and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) gathered at the Harvell Civil Engineering Research and Education Center on the UA campus in Fayetteville to conduct a stress test on a concrete beam.

UA System Creates Formwork for Test Beam While the Zip-Form system was clearly innovative and could produce pleasing structures, Baker and Harriss knew there were more practical applications.

Harriss, whose primary work is in geometry, also holds an appointment in the School of Art. His stated desire is “to put mathematics in a playful, choice-driven space where people can play with or appreciate mathematics through art and sculpture.”Whenhe needed someone who could help fabricate the shapes he was dreaming up, using complex geometry, he reached out to Baker for help.

“You’re looking at places where there’s going to be a need for high density construction,” he explained. “So that means going up, going vertical and doing it safely. And, really, the only material that’s widely available and accessible to most of those regions is concrete, so concrete’s expected to be the number one material we use today. And it’s expected to just go up in use because we really haven’t found [any other] material that’s able to meet demands and still be safe.”

Among Ismail’s research interests is increasing the structural efficiency of building materials. In the case of concrete beams, that means minimizing the amount of concrete and steel used, including removing concrete from where it is not needed, and retaining it where it is. This resulted in his beam having a flat top but a base that curved in unanticipated ways.He estimated that the beam in question contained 40 percent less embodied carbon — the amount of carbon burned to produce the concrete and steel used in the beam — than standard rectangular beams. This is important for reasons of both sustainability and economy, Ismail noted, as he has his eye on the developing world, where urban growth is expected to surge.

The fruits of research are not always immediately clear, but the nature of the test — hydraulic press versus concrete beam — brought out the various colleges’social media staff, who recognized strong visual content when they saw it, according to a recent news article on the UA website.

Although there are undoubtedly similar testing facilities closer to Boston, where Ismail lives and is a doctoral student at arguably the best research university in the world, he came to UA to crush his beam for two reasons: Emily Baker and Edmund Harriss.

Goal Is to Become More Efficient With Less

Now, such tests typically do not attract many onlookers, but this demonstration was meant to showcase a collaborative new approach to beam design and optimization.

The man responsible for the beam’s design was Mohamed Ismail, a Ph.D. student in building technology at MIT — a discipline existing at the intersection of architecture and engineering. He was on hand to witness the crushing test in person and seemed vaguely nervous that the beam might not perform as expected — a feeling heightened by the unusual degree of attention the stress test was receiving.

Designed to carry 8,500 lbs., the beam eventually cracked after 12,000 lbs. of load were added.

Rebuild Process

The Cleveland Brothers exchange program is a unique program where components, like the engine and transmission, are rebuilt ahead of time and stored in its warehouses until it fits the right customer’s needs. This gives the customer a time advantage by already having a like-new engine

A CPT Rebuild follows a step-by-step process to transform the life of a power train. Once the D8R arrived at Cleveland Brothers’Lancaster, Pa., shop, the service team conducted an extensive evaluation where more than 200 tests and inspections were performed. Cleveland Brothers follows all rebuild processes and procedures from Caterpillar to ensure customers receive a consistent standard of excellence with the rebuild. After technicians performed an inspection, the machine was completely disassembled and the components of the final drive, like brakes and steering, were sent to the Indiana, Pa., facility to be rebuilt. All other components were rebuilt right at the Lancaster shop. The inspection revealed a list of additional items that needed to be repaired outside of the CPT, which ensured Lyons & Hohl Site Contractors were receiving a like-new machine. Those findings were restored, including the electronic control modules, hoses, sensors, pumps, switches and cooling packages. To improve productivity and safety, the team also performed engineering updates and upgrades.

Once the machine was evaluated and received the stamp of approval by the customer on the job site, the D8R Cat Certified Powertrain rebuilt was considered complete.

During this rebuild, Cleveland Brothers swapped out the customer’s existing engine for a Cat exchange engine and the transmission for a Cat Reman transmission.

The company realized it was time to give its D8R a second life as it was reaching 19,000 hours. After Lyons & Hohl Site Contractors discussed how they wanted to transform its D8R, Cleveland Brothers’ service team began the process.Utilizing its extensive rebuild capabilities and specialized facilities, it was able to perform the entire rebuild to transform the life of the D8R.

Cat machines can withstand multiple lifetimes with a rebuild, which is the best way for machine owners to get the most out of their investment.

Lyons & Hohl Site Contractors did just that by trusting Cleveland Brothers to restore the original performance and productivity of its Cat D8R Dozer with a Cat Certified Powertrain (CPT) Rebuild.

The Post reported that the expansion of I66 outside the Beltway is among Virginia’s largest and most expensive transportation projects in history, sporting a price tag of about $3.7 billion. The project has been built through a public-private partnership between the state and I-66 Express Mobility Partners, a consortium of investors that will support and operate the toll lanes under a 50-year concession. The interstate’s enlargement will keep three general-purpose lanes eastbound and westbound, adding two HOT lanes in each direction, and 10 through-travel lanes, the latter of which will connect with 10 mi. of rush-hour, peak-direction toll lanes that opened in December 2017 between the Beltway and the District. They also are the latest addition to the region’s growing network of express lanes, of which more than 60 mi. are in northern Virginia.

VDOT officials told the Washington Post that they expect the improvements to interchanges, ramps and transit connections will provide muchneeded relief along the traffic-choked corridor.Drivers are starting to see some of those upgrades, as new bridges and ramps are nearing completion. In addition, traffic patterns along the corridor are changing, with lane closures and split traffic in several stretches. Ramps that recently have opened include those at I-66’s interchanges with Virginia Route 123 and Va. 234.

First Exit Ramp From Capital Beltway to I-66 to Open

Construction is finally winding down on Interstate 66 in northern Virginia where a multibillion-dollar widening of the freeway, along with new express lanes, are slated to debut in AheadDecember.ofthat,anew exit ramp carrying the Capital Beltway’s northbound traffic onto westbound I-66 was planned to open around Aug. 25, the Washington Post reportedAug. 18. It marks the first ramp and bridge in that area to carry traffic as part of the overall project. Road crews have been busy to complete I-66’s high-occupancy toll (HOT) lanes, stretching from University Boulevard in Gainesville to the Beltway, by the end of the year, exactly five years after construction first began, the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) noted on its website.The state agency told the Post that paving and striping will wrap up in the coming months while crews continue working on opening new ramps and bridges, installing signage and toll gantries, and testing tolling technology.Unlikeother major transportation projects in theWashington, D.C., region — such as the nearby Silver Line Metro extension and Maryland’s Purple Line rail project — the I-66 lanes are on schedule and on budget, despite pandemic and supply chain challenges, VDOT officials said. When the interstate’s HOT lanes are opened, they will bring a transformational shift to the busy 22.5 mi. of highway outside the nation’s capital.“We have billions of dollars’ worth of work, and we’re delivering it on time, with everybody working hard together in some very unusual times,” explained Susan Shaw, VDOT’s director of megaprojects.

Elsewhere, a final installation of bridge beams will begin soon on the I-66/Va. 28 interchange — the corridor’s busiest junction after the Beltway — where work also includes the removal of four traffic signals between Westfields Boulevard and U.S. Highway 29 in Centreville to help reduce traffic backups.

Another Big, Expensive D.C.-Area Project Construction crews have worked at 12 interchanges, on 63 bridges and overpasses, and along more than 11 mi. of new bike trails in the corridor, according to VDOT. Workers have collectively put in more than 11 million hours, the agency noted, working with more than three million tons of asphalt and 57 million pounds of steel. At the project’s peak, as many as 2,000 workers were on-site completing about $70 million worth of work each month. As the project ramps down during its fifth year, crews are still working at several different points along the corridor, the Post noted.

Project Opening Just Few MonthsLater Than Planned

An opening this year would be a significant accomplishment for a Washington-area project of this size. The I-66 express lanes originally were expected to open in July, but VDOT officials explained that early in the process, the timeline was adjusted to a late 2022 opening due to delays in financing.

Other major projects in the region also have been plagued by lengthy delays, including an extension of the I-95 express lanes to Fredericksburg,Va., which originally were to open this year but are now projected to be finished in late 2023 at $100 million over Additionally,budget.theSilver Line extension in Virginia and the Purple Line light-rail project in Maryland are years behind schedule and millions over budget, the Post noted.

When that happens, motorists will be able to choose between the general lanes, which will remain free, or the new toll lanes, which buses, carpoolers and motorcyclists can use toll-free. Solo drivers will pay to use the lanes, while carpoolers will need an EZPass Flex transponder to access the lanes without paying. The lanes will utilize a dynamic pricing system, with tolls that rise and fall based on traffic conditions.

Along I-66, drivers will continue to see more traffic splits in different stretches of the freeway as paving operations move forward. Most of the remaining work is in the eastern end of the corridor, as well as at the Beltway and Va. 28 interchanges. The western section has toll gantries up and is ready for testing, VDOT officials said.

“There will continue to be some traffic shifts,” Shaw explained. “Driving through those major interchanges, people need to stay alert and look for new traffic patterns as we finish up.”

I-66Ês Expansion to Be RegionÊs Latest Express Lanes

Nancy H. Smith, a spokesperson of FAM Construction, a joint venture of Ferrovial Construction andAllan Myers, said as many as 1,000 workers currently are on-site.

“We’re kind of sliding back down that hill but still at over $30 million of construction activity a month, which is just massive,” she told the newspaper. “We are looking forward to opening the express lanes by the end of the year and being able to bring more reliable travel options to the corridor.”

In addition, a total of 30 apartments will be developed on the building’s top two floors.The Erie Downtown Development Corp. (EDDC) project is expected to be finished late this year or early in 2023.

The first new structure is projected to be done next year, while the parking deck is expected to be completed this fall.

A separate $5 million grant for Cordova, Ala., will fix 30 mi. of roads, including those damaged by powerful tornadoes in 2011.Christopher Coes, the assistant U.S. secretary for transportation policy, told the Washington newspaper that 52 percent of funding announced is going toward roadway improvements, while adding that a substantial number of those included elements of Complete Streets, an effort pushed by the federal agency to make roadways safer and more inviting for pedestrians. About 7 percent of the funding backed maritime projects, he added, while 4 percent went to rail.

Funding Is Key to U.S.Infrastructure Upgrades Buttigieg and Mitch Landrieu, President Biden’s senior infrastructure adviser, have been traveling to key states recently to herald the grants and the progress they said theyTherepresent.Postnoted that Buttigieg also joined local and congressional officials in Tucson, Ariz., to announce a $25 million grant to uncork freight and pedestrian bottlenecks in that city’s 22nd Street area.The funding will support a new bridge over a railroad, a separate span for bicyclists and those on foot, and an expanded roadway, which transportation officials said will improve connections with an underserved area.

According to project documents obtained by the Post, the planned construction includes a cable-suspended pedestrian bridge, three pedestrian bridges over Pinhook Creek and Huntsville Spring Branch, and a new railroad bridge. Among the goals, federal transportation officials said, are mitigating floods, cutting emissions and improving access to disadvantaged neighborhoods.

The pond closed to swimmers 22 years ago due to often high bacteria levels. Today, there are no publicly owned pools or other recreational water facilities in western Sussex County, according to the 2022 Trap Pond State Park Master Plan. But that is about to change, reported Wilmington’s Delaware News Journal in an article published Aug. 17.

Buttigieg said categorization can be tricky, though, given that road projects can be paired with other improvements, but about 17 percent of projects that received funding included bike and pedestrian elements.

Following more than a decade of efforts by stakeholders, the state has provided $2.5 million for the construction of a splash pad at TrapStatePond.Rep. Tim Dukes, R-Laurel, told the newspaper, “We hope within the next year here, we’ll be moving dirt.”

In addition, Landrieu was in Atlanta to reveal a $25 million grant to fix the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority’s (MARTA) Five Points station.

From Industrial to Recreational Trap Pond started out as a logging pond, transporting lumber cut from bald cypress and Atlantic white cedar trees. Today, it is still home to one of the northernmost bald cypress stands in the country. Later, the pond was used as a mill, noted William Koth, a park interpreter. “It is important to remember, the area spent much more time being an industrial area than a protected resource,” he wrote in a Delaware State Parks blog. It was not until 1936 that the federal government, as part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal, bought the land surrounding Trap Pond and added recreational infrastructure like pavilions and grills, according to Koth. Prior to that, the pond was privately owned.

Big Grant for Small City

But in the era of segregation, there were two separate swimming areas at the park. White people swam in front of where the Baldcypress Nature Center is now, while Black people swam on the other side, at JasonTheBeach.latter became a special gathering place for Black residents in the 1950s and ‘60s. It was used for church services, baptisms, picnics and other social events. A historical marker was placed there earlier this year commemorating that fact. Later, in the 1960s and ‘70s, the Red Cross brought hundreds of children to Trap Pond for free swimming lessons each summer.However, bacteria levels at Trap Pond began to concern health officials as early as the 1980s. When the pond was closed to swimmers for a few days in 1989 due to bacteria levels, a spokesperson of the park said “several hundred” people were swimming there most summer weekends. As bacteria levels went even higher and 2000.lybecamemorefrequent,swimmingwasfinal-bannedatTrapPondforgoodbyMay

From Both Sides of Aisle On Board The Post added that Republican lawmakers, including Sen. Richard C. Shelby (RAla.), also were touting the grants, including one in his state that awarded $20 million to a long-awaited project to link the city of Huntsville with neighborhoods isolated by highways and waterways.

The Berlin, N.H., project will use wasted heat at a wood-burning power plant to dispense with snow, while trying to transform a community hit hard by the decline of the paper industry, the Post reported. The Burgess Biopower plant replaced part of a former pulp mill in the city.

“This is a game changer for Berlin,” Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) said in a statement from her office.

“What they’re going to be able to do there, with this funding, [is] really transforms the future of their town center,” he explained. 

“Increasingly, park officials got complaints that swimmers had developed skin rashes or become ill after swimming there,” Steve Schilly, a Delaware State Parks operations administrator told a News Journal reporter at the time. Later that year, Delaware officials announced funding to design and build a “spray ground” at Trap Pond but those plans ultimately fell through. Some of the funding for the “spray ground” was funneled toward planning the Baldcypress Nature Center, according to Koth, which opened in 2010 with room for exhibits, events, patios and spotting scopes.

Plans Call for Multiple Splash Pads This year, Trap Pond State Park encompasses 3,993 acres, and offers RV hook-ups and tent, yurt and cabin camping. There also are more than 12 mi. of hiking trails as well as kayaks, canoes, boats and paddleboards available for rent, along with multiple fishing docks, a playground, volleyball courts and a disc golf course.

“We’re not leaving anybody behind,” Landrieu said. Lawmakers

Buttigieg, who had visited Berlin a couple of years ago to open a campaign office during his run for president, said the $19.5 million going to the project will have a lasting effect, even if the dollar amount might not seem significant by the standards of some major U.S. cities.

“Learning about these projects and providing the funding to help make more of them a reality is one of the best parts of serving in this role,” Buttigieg said ahead of the announcement, which covered $2.2 billion for projects in every state — half in rural areas and half in urban areas.

“I am particularly pleased that Huntsville has been awarded the funds to construct multiple pedestrian bridges that will soon provide greater access to businesses and vital services located downtown,” Shelby said in a statement.

Park Once Divided ByRacial Barriers

“While there is no doubt that recreation such as swimming and fishing took place,” wrote Koth, the pond was not open to the public.Trap Pond officially became Delaware’s first state park in 1951, theWilmington news source noted, and its biggest draw at that time, arguably, was swimming.

“After all this effort, streets and sidewalks are rarely free from snow and ice,” city officials told the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) in a recent grant application. And once spring comes, “on windy days, remnant dust fills the downtownOnair.”Aug. 10, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg announced that Berlin’s idea for solving these problems — a snowmelt system that will pump excess heat from a nearby biomass power plant through condensed water pipes under downtown roads and sidewalks — is one of 166 projects to receive funding under the Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) program, the Washington Post reported Aug. 11 RAISE is a popular but oversubscribed program that itself is receiving an infusion of $7.5 billion over five years under 2021’s infrastructure law.

Berlin, a small city in New Hampshire’s rural North Country, has a problem. Each winter, 7 ft. of snow buries the town’s streets and sidewalks, making them hazardous for tourists and residents trying to make their way downtown. Pedestrians fall and cars crash as a result. In addition, the costly process of plowing, dumping, salting and sanding leaves a mess.

The goal of the work in the Georgia capital, according to project documents, is to rebuild a confusing station by eliminating “long walks to bus transfers in areas that are not adequately monitored,” and to improve safety by helping people avoid crossing streets.The station, where more than half of those living within half a mile are poor, links downtown with Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, a major job source.

Trap Pond in Laurel, Del., has served many purposes in its centuries of existence, but for the past 22 years, it has been missing a key element: recreational-quality water.

The Portal North Bridge project spans 2.44 mi. of the Northeast Corridor line and includes construction of retaining walls, deep foundations, concrete piers, structural steel bridge spans, rail systems, demolition of the existing bridge and related incidental works. The Notice to Proceed (NTP) given to STJV in April signified the start of the construction contract, which is anticipated to take approximately five and a half years to complete.“Today marks another advancement for

The Portal North Bridge project will eliminate the 110-year-old swing bridge, which has been the enduring source of major service disruptions for NJ TRANSIT and Amtrak customers traveling on the Northeast Corridor.

The Portal North Bridge project will eliminate the 110-year-old swing bridge, which has been the enduring source of major service disruptions for NJ TRANSIT and Amtrak customers traveling on the Northeast Corridor.

N.J. Gov. Phil Murphy, alongside United States Department of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Senators Cory Booker and Bob Menendez, New Jersey Department of Transportation Commissioner and NJ TRANSIT Board Chair Diane GutierrezScaccetti, NJ TRANSIT President and CEO Kevin S. Corbett, and several federal, state and local officials and project partners gathered Aug. 1 to celebrate the official physical groundbreaking of the new Portal North Bridge. Construction of the new Portal North Bridge will greatly reduce gridlock caused by critical operation and maintenance issues of the existing 110-year-old swing bridge and improve service, reliability and capacity for rail travel along the Northeast Corridor.

“Safe, reliable and modern infrastructure is about more than just getting to work on time. It’s also about the thousands of goodpaying jobs this project will create and the fixed-spanwithcapacityProgram,calenteringabilitybe,workthisuctforgetItBridgeNewmitmentsymbolizesandcommuters,tunity,tivity,familiestheysupport.Byimprovingconnec-wewillalsopromoteeconomicoppor-notjustforNewJerseyresidentsandbutfortheNortheastCorridorournation.ThenewPortalNorthBridgeourlastinglegacyandourcom-tothewelfareandprosperityofallJerseyans.”“ThisprojectturnsthePortalNorthfromachokepointtoanaccesspoint.modernizesthewaythatpeopleandgoodstoandfromthisregionthatisresponsible20percentofAmerica’seconomicprod-everyyear,”saidButtigieg.“Ihopethatbridgewillnotonlybringpeopletoandlovedonestowheretheyneedtobutbringsrenewedconfidenceinourtogetthingsdonetogether.Weareintoatrueinfrastructuredecade.”ThePortalNorthBridgeprojectisacriti-componentofthelargerGatewaywhichwilleventuallydoublerailbetweenNewarkandNewYork.ThecurrentPortalBridgewillbereplacedanewmoderntwo-track,high-level,bridgethatwillimproveservice and capacity along this section of the Northeast Corridor. The new Portal North Bridge will rise 50 ft. over the Hackensack River and will allow marine traffic to pass underneath without interrupting rail traffic.

The bridge is a major part of the larger Gateway Program and a testament to the prioritization of critical infrastructure investments by the Murphy and Biden administrations.

The project is being funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation, New Jersey, New York and Amtrak. In January 2021, Murphy announced the signing of a Full Funding Grant Agreement, which secured $766.5 million in Federal Transit Administration funding to support the project’s construction. In October 2021, Murphy and NJ TRANSIT announced the approval of a $1,559,993,000 construction contract awarded to Skanska/Traylor Bros PNB Joint Venture (STJV) for the construction of the new Portal North Bridge. The contract represents the single largest construction award in NJ TRANSIT’s history.

“Todayforward.”isagreat day for New Jersey residents. Thanks to President Biden, Governor Murphy, and Congressional Democrats, the Portal North Bridge is now well on its way to becoming a reality,” said Rep. Frank Pallone. “New Jersey commuters deserve safe and efficient transportation when they travel between New Jersey and New York each day, and I’m proud to see this project get started. It will improve the lives of thousands of commuters and will bolster the long-term growth of our region’s“Historyeconomy.”ishappening today. For years New Jerseyans have waited patiently for relief at the Portal Bridge over the Hackensack. Because of congestion and delays at this chokepoint, countless dinners, outings and hours of family time have been sapped by interminable commutes,” said Rep. Bill Pascrell Jr., a longtime advocate for this project and whose district includes one side of the bridge.

“This groundbreaking for the Portal Bridge is the culmination of years of advocacy and hard work, as well as a new beginning for NJ-11 commuters who have suffered through too many arduous daily commutes and ‘summers of hell.’ This project, made possible by federal transportation funding that I’ve championed over the past three years, is going to make a tangible difference to the quality of life and economic opportunities of New Jersey families, and will have a significant positive environmental impact in North Jersey,” said Sherrill. “I look forward to the day we return for a ribbon cutting when the project is completed.”“Iapplaud Governor Murphy and NJ Transit on the groundbreaking of the Portal North Bridge, which is a huge step towards reducing gridlock and improving safety for rail commuters between New Jersey and New York City,” said Rep.Albio Sires. “As a senior member of the House of Representatives Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, I have long advocated for funding to replace the bridge and to complete the other parts of the Gateway Program. We have made tremendous progress, and I will continue working with my federal and state partners to get this project over the finish line.”

“Beginning full construction on the Portal Bridge gives hope to millions of travelers up and down the Northeast Corridor who have suffered from a stuck century old swing bridge,” said Balpreet Grewal-Virk and Alicia Glen, New Jersey and New York Chairs for the Gateway Development Commission.

New Jersey Project to Replace 110-Year-Old Swing Bridge

“Portal will be a visible symbol that this nation and region take 21st Century rail travin infrastructure projects that will deliver long-term customer experience improvements,” said Gutierrez-Scaccetti.

“As all too many travelers are painfully aware, the existing bridge has been a source of countless delays and frustration for the millions of NJ TRANSIT and Amtrak customers who ride along the bridge between New Jersey and New York annually, and its importance cannot be overstated,” said Corbett. “Construction of a new bridge will not only create approximately 15,000 jobs and add billions of dollars to our local economy but, more importantly, it will provide safe, reliable rail service for all Northeast Corridor commuters between Washington, D.C., and Boston for generations to come.”

“After years of hard work, this is a huge win for Jersey — to finally see shovels in the ground and people working on the Portal North Bridge. Projects like this are exactly why I fought to help shape and pass the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill and claw back critically-needed federal investments back from Washington to Jersey,” said Rep. Josh Gottheimer. “This bridge is a top priority for the completion of the Gateway Train Tunnel and it will help residents spend more time with their families by commuting on faster, more reliable trains, create new jobs and ensure Jersey’s economy is stronger and safer — by removing our reliance on a more than 110-year-old-bridge plagued with bottlenecks and delays.”

“This groundbreaking symbolizes the next step in modernizing and maximizing rail service along the highly transited Northeast Corridor improving reliability and capacity for generations to come.”

 PORTAL from page 30

“Today we are replacing a bridge that has slowed down our trains for decades and keeping our promise to bring home the tax dollars we send to Washington,” said Rep. Tom Malinowski. “I am proud of what we did in Congress to get this project approved and funded, and look forward to many more groundbreakings as we move the Gateway Program

“Our groundbreaking today marks a titanic step to keep the Northeast Corridor moving and relieving one less cause of stress for countless North Jerseyans. Our federal, state and local leaders have worked assiduously to reach this moment. I cannot wait for the new Portal North Bridge.”

North Bridge is a significant step in our efforts to create a reliable, world-class rail experience for travelers across the Northeast,” said New York Governor Kathy Hochul.“ThePortal North Bridge is a key component of the Gateway Tunnel Project — the nation’s most pressing infrastructure project — that will spur economic development and deliver fundamentally improved travel throughout the region for generations to come. I thank Governor Murphy, Senator Schumer and the Biden Administration for their partnership, and together we will build a bridge to a new future for NewYork, New Jersey and the entire Northeast.”

“It is an honor to participate in the groundbreaking for the new Portal North Bridge,” said Rep. Donald M. Payne Jr. “When this bridge is completed, it will make life easier for millions of commuters in New Jersey and throughout the Northeast Corridor. It is a critical project to me because I have been an outspoken advocate for the entire Gateway Program and worked tirelessly to support the new bridge. I helped secure $900 million in federal funding for the new bridge and I have written letters to President Biden, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, and House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure Chairman Peter DeFazio urging them to prioritize it for federal approval.“Nowthat we have broken ground on the bridge, I want to focus on approvals and funding for the Hudson River Tunnel project, which is part of the Gateway Program.”

Former Vermeer CEO, Bob Vermeer, PassesAway,Age 78

Bob 35thVermeerAnniversary, 1983

Born in Oskaloosa, Iowa, on July 28,1944, to Gary and Matilda Vermeer, the second child, with brother Stan and sister Mary, Mr. Vermeer grew up on a family farm near Pella. His love for the outdoors and life on the farm was evident, with animals being his favorite. There was always a wellloved farm dog around and even a bottle calf to feed. But it was his grandfather, John Van Gorp, that introduced him to the best of all pets, horses. Mr. Vermeer’s grandfather and mother picked out his first pony, Ruby. He was rarely without a pony or horse from that point forward and enjoyed many fond memories and awards as a result of his horse hobby.Mr. Vermeer attended Wheatgrow Country school through first grade, and then Pella Christian schools through high school graduation in 1962. He enjoyed academics, played intramural sports and was involved with music, singing in various choirs and playing tenor sax in the band. From an early age, Mr. Vermeer loved spending time with his parents and two siblings, Stan and Mary. They grew up watching their father and founder of Vermeer, Gary Vermeer, build a company based on values while innovating better ways to do work on the farm. Even as a child, Mr. Vermeer saw a future in business. For career day at Wheatgrow School, he dressed as a businessman. After high school, Mr. Vermeer attended Dordt College for a two-year degree. There his love for music grew as he discovered his beautiful tenor voice. Interested in economics and business, he transferred to Central College, graduating in 1966. His first job out of college was working at Marion County Bank, working there until 1973, eventually serving as vice president and director. In 1968, Mr. Vermeer married Lois DeJong. Together, they raised their three children — Daniel, Heidi and Allison — in Pella, Iowa. Fond memories included fishing trips to Canada and family vacations to Lake Okoboji and the Lake of the Ozarks. Eventually, regular gatherings at their Lake Panorama home (Meer Huis) is where Mr. and Mrs. Vermeer spent cherished time with their children and grandchildren as they grew. You could also find Mr. Vermeer regularly cheering on his kids and grandkids in their extracurricular activities.Mr. Vermeer generously devoted his time and talents to family, church and community. On the family side, Mr. Vermeer was a leader in promoting succession planning to transition the business to future generations of the Vermeer family. He was committed to countless philanthropic endeavors as president of the Vermeer Charitable Foundation. The Foundation’s efforts have improved the lives of people throughout local communities, the state of Iowa and worldwide. The Vermeers were charter and long-term member of Faith Christian Reformed Church, where Mr. Vermeer served as an elder and often participated in praise and worship. In 2007, the Bob Vermeer Spirit of Caring award began as a recognition of the important company culture Mr. Vermeer helped build. The award celebrates team members who demonstrated that culture both at work and beyond. His business expertise and passion for people resulted in several board roles, past and present, some of which include:

Congress typically considers the Water Resources Development Act every two years.The latest measure includes multiple pro visions that would impact West Virginia, including giving the USACE the go-ahead to study the feasibility of modifying seven dams and lakes to allow hydroelectric power generation or energy storage.

“Along with the investments made possi ble by my Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, this legislation will enable exciting projects to diversify, modernize and strengthen our economy, create new jobs and make our communities safer,” he said.

Congress is closer to sending a measure to President Biden for his signature that would perform work on various water proj ects across the country, including several in WestSenatorsVirginia.overwhelmingly passed the Water Resources Development Act July 25 that authorizes the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) to lead work related to water resources, environment protection, navigation and construction.

Climate change is being blamed for accelerated infrastructure corrosion. Increases in temperature and humidity are weakening construction materials and eating away at America’s roads and bridges. The transportation design and construction industry hopes with President Biden’s major infrastructure bill their structural preservation efforts will gainThetraction.reinforced concrete and steel used not only in today’s roads and bridges but in other transportation venues including airport runways, railways, sewers and tunnels, are threatened by weather and environment.Research has found that in the right environment steel can retain its strength for 100 years. But exposed to salt and wind, it begins to rust and weaken.Coatings that help slow down the effects of water and oxygen can only do so Carbonationmuch. causes concrete failure when carbon in the air mixes with compounds used in cement. Though the resulting carbonates improve the strength and durability of the concrete, they also allow chloride to corrode the reinforcing steel inside.

Considering that aircrafts are also exposed to mechanical stress, it’s important to best understand how they affect corrosion.

Since 2001, MDOT has collaborated with Lawrence Technological University (LTU) on research into carbon fiber reinforced polymer materials in concrete bridge beams.

Not It Down

In 2001, LTU, MDOT and the city of Southfield, Mich., deployed the first three-span carbon fiber prestressed concrete bridge in the country.The Bridge Street bridge was outfitted with sensors so it can be monitored by MDOT until 2025. Since then, more than a dozen bridges have been built throughout the state using carbon fiber components.

The team also is expanding their testing to include accelerated corrosion chambers and field testing related to reinforced concrete applications.Theresearch team also is collaborating with Universidad de Costa Rica and Texas A&M University to test an environmentally sustainable corrosion inhibitor.

Bridge designers have gleaned the information and specifications to predict how carbon fiber reinforced beams will perform under a variety of real-world conditions. With this research data, the team can formulate design tools for future bridge projects.

see PRESERVATION page 42

By Lucy Perry CEG CORRESPONDENT

“Rusting of steel elements is the leading cause of deterioration in our bridges,” said Matt Chynoweth, chief bridge engineer of MDOT. “Since carbon fiber is non-corrosive, we are eliminating that potential for damage. Using a material that will not corrode is a real game-changer.”

Bridging the Future

He said the technology is becoming wildly popular well beyond Michigan’s borders.

“Corrosionenvironment.isasignificant risk to safety in many fields,” Troconis said. “Therefore, I hope our ongoing work generating new knowledge and techniques will positively impact safety across the board.”

MDOT reports that research has reached the field stage and projects utilizing it have beenToday’sdeployed.bridges are built to withstand both the daily loads of thousands of vehicles and decades of extreme temperature changes.Prestressing concrete with high-strength materials is one method of strengthening it. In this method, steel cables inside the concrete are tensioned with a significant force, elongating them. Before the strengthened concrete carries loads, the strands are released, compressing theSubsequentconcrete. loads on the beam have to overcome this built-in compression to actually stress the Prestressingbeam.also reduces or eliminates cracking from concrete shrinkage; it allows thinner and longer spans, according to MDOT. Steel has been the go-to material for prestressing concrete for highway bridges, but it has drawbacks. The material is prone to corrosion and deterioration from extreme temperatures, water and deicing chemicals. Preventing corrosion and repairing damaged areas requires time and money and can limit the lifespan of the structure, said MDOT. But carbon fiber, an innovative alternative to steel, has strands as strong as those of steel, but resistant to corrosion. They also require less maintenance over time, so they offer longer service life.

Chynoweth said MDOT is deploying the materials strategically, using them on highervolume routes. On a span of southbound I75, the carbon fiber-infused beams are some of the longest in the state, at 140 ft. Two bridges are currently being built with carbon fiber reinforced beams as part of MDOT’s massive I-94 modernization project in Detroit. They will use beams with newer 0.7-in. diameter carbon fiber strands, allowing greater initial tensioning than steel, saidTheMDOT.research coming out of the long partnership between the state transportation agency and LTU hopes to optimize the design process and encourage more widespread use. The team has subjected beams to 300 freeze-thaw cycles, combined fire/loading events, severe weather and other trials.

An expert in corrosion in reinforced concrete, Troconis is working with Texas-based Twin Hawk on a commercial grade coating that minimizes corrosion and improves the durability of the reinforced concrete over time.“We have previously demonstrated the efficiency of Twin Hawk’s product and are now bringing the chemical production onto campus to optimize the surface preparation and coating process parameters,” she said.

The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) is tackling carbon corrosion in bridges with a revolutionary method: Carbon fiber reinforced bridge beams.Thegoal is to engineer a 100-year bridge, said Paul Ajegba, state transportation director. “The aim is bridges that last a century with minimal maintenance.”

AASHTO placed the team’s efforts among the highest value transportation research projects in the nation. Named one of the top 16 research projects of 2020, the In the right environment steel can retain its strength for 100 years. Exposure to salt and wind can weaken and deteriorate the construction material.

Researchers Look for Ways to Mitigate Material Corrosion

“All this information can feed structural life management tools and lead to more efficient maintenance schedules.”

This can be done through the evaluation of corrosion and attack on structural alloys in relevant conditions, said Troconis.

The goal is to increase the durability of reinforced concrete in a sustainable way while minimizing risks to humans and the broader

President Biden’s infrastructure bill may stave off materials deterioration as it improves the nation’s roads and bridges — and benefit corrosion professionals in the process.

State DOT Makes Goal to Engineer 100-Year Bridge research also has led to new MDOT and AASHTO design specifications.Onefactorlimiting further deployment of carbon fiber bridge beams is the price tag. Carbon fiber elements can cost as much as three to four times more than comparable steel elements. On the flip side, though, they are anticipated to last much longer than steel, so they may prove to be cheaper in the long run.

Coatings experts weighed in on what the infrastructure legislation means for the corrosion sector as a whole and members of the Association for Materials Protection and Performance (AMPP) specifically.DanAdley, retired CEO of engineering consultant KTA-Tator, Pittsburgh, Pa., said every aspect of the infrastructure bill involves construction materials, where the corrosion and coatings sector has a

“Engage them in the conversation, because all of this funding is going to flow ultimately through the states,” he said. “Some of which they have immediate control over, and others they have to apply for through grants. Those are going to create opportunities for AMPP membership to participate in.”

Adam Christopher,AMPPmanager of government relations, believes the key for coatings professionals and other contractors is to be a part of the process. He said the goal is “to make sure policymakers understand the need for actively planning and engaging and making sure that things are protected.”

Christopher said that’s one of the reasons our nation’s infrastructure is in such a state of disrepair today.

“It’s that we haven’t had that traditional focus of making sure the best policies are in place to make sure that assets are properly maintained.” CEG

On the tail end of the long-term operations and maintenance and management of these facilities, protection and performance professionals “have roles in ensuring the long-term sustainable protection and management of the infrastructure we’re going to be investing in,” said Adley.Asked what sector members can do to prepare themselves and their businesses, he said AMPP members and the sector at large can start by being advocates for their industry. Call local and state representatives for the district you live in or where your business is located in.

“Thatrole.role might be in making certain that the material selection and the physical design of these infrastructure projects is done in such a way that the asset is protected for as long as possible,” he said. “Now, it all needs to be done in a sustainable manner. That has AMPP written all over it, from the front-end design, selection of materials, and the specification for the long-term corrosion protection systems.”

Ask simple questions, said Adley: “How is our state receiving these funds? What’s its vision on how they should be dispersed? And are we incorporating sound corrosion design, management and oversight provisions in the utilization of these funds to ensure that our investment is sustainable?”

Climate change is blamed for infrastructure corrosion as increases in temperatures and humidity can corrode roads and bridges.

Carbon fiber, an alternative to steel, has corrosion-resistant strands. It requires less maintenance over time, so it results in longer service life.

PRESERVATION from page 40

The advice Adley gave AMPP members applies to any construction contractor working on a transportation project that comes out of the infrastructure“AMPPbill. has a role in making sure that the contractors who perform the work, and those that observe the quality of the performance, are trained, certified and can perform that work so that these long-term benefits are achieved.”

“We’ve calculated the break-even point to be about 22 years based on life cycle maintenance,” Chynoweth said. “But since the data points only go back about 20 years, this is a theoretical estimate.”Some reductions in cost and delivery time for the technology’s components have been since one supplier, Tokyo Rope, built a fabrication facility in Michigan.Engineers are now closer than ever to their goal of building bridges with a minimum 100-year service life, which is both a state and national target. With more use in bridge design, carbon fiber reinforced polymer materials will get to prove their mettle with transportation engineers and Michigan motorists.

The Cap project received state, local and private funding in addition to a land match. The project cost $32 million overall, $19 million of that being a federal grant from the Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) program. This money was awarded for the Cap project’s part in reviving the Hill District’s economy. Additional funding came from a long list of sources, indicative of a large amount of support behind this project. Notice to proceed was given on June 24, 2019. AFay spokesperson reported on the history of the area and the project. The Hill District was a vibrant cultural center for As part of the design phase, the city held community sessions and design reviews to gauge input from Hill District residents and stakeholders.

“This project provided upgrades to the drainage system, the interstate, and the city streets,” said Chuck Grabner, PE of Fay. “These improvement efforts have had a substantial benefit to the local Pittsburgh community. A few other cities have built freeway caps in an overall trend to increase sustainability and connectivity for residents.”

Tenna, a construction technology platform, announced the expansion of its construction resource management software with a new schedule product.

While Resource Management enables con tractors to efficiently request and dispatch equip ment and labor resources, Schedule allows for visibility of these resources across divi sions and job sites in a single combined cal endar/Gantt chart view for equipment and labor planning and forecasting.

Tenna Expands Construction ResourceManagementSoftware

Tenna’s new schedule functionality is a compan ion product to Resource Management, which launched earlier this year.

Schedule helps contractors know more about where their assets are, what assets are needed on upcoming jobs and what might delay or impair an upcoming project mobi lization before it begins so they can outfit their projects with appropriate equipment and labor resources while avoiding costly delays.“Beyond the daily operational efficien cies, Schedule also helps construction busi nesses plan for supply chain issues,” said Conti.“While supply chain delays and labor shortages continue to be an industry-wide struggle, leveraging Resource Management and Schedule can help contractors better optimize the equipment and labor resources they have while they face challenges secur ing assets externally. Having visibility into labor and equipment schedules enables themtomanagetheirownedresourcesmore efficiently and source external resources as far in advance as possible.”

By adding Schedule to the Resource Management product, Tenna continues its track record of providing the most complete construction-focused equipment manage ment system for the industry, the company said.The Schedule product is an extension of theresearchanddevelopmentconductedfor Resource Management — which included more than 150 hours of customer interviews to help inform all the nuances the market demanded in this type of solution — further demonstrating Tenna’s commitment to pro viding a usable product that meets a true industry need.

Black residents with easy pedestrian access to downtown, until the urban renewal of the 1960s. This movement ultimately led to the construction of I-579, which divided the two areas.The Cap project aimed to reconnect the Hill District and Pittsburgh’s downtown by repairing the concrete divide that led to social and economic dislocation.Crosstown Boulevard, later I-579, separated the two neighborhoods with retaining walls and loud traffic. Even after the Civic Arena was demolished in 2011, parking lots kept the two neighborhoods apart. These parking lots will be part of later development in connection with the Cap project, which works to heal past social injustice while incorporating local culture, art and sustainability.

According to Doug Thompson, principal assistant construction engineer of PennDOT District 11, the piers were constructed right in the center of the highway with active travel lanes on either side.

Cap Kudos The Cap project earned the following awards: • 2022 AASHTO America’s Transportation Awards NASTO region • 2022 APWA Structures Project of the Year Award — $25-75M • 2022 IBC Arthur G. Hayden Medal • 2022 APC TQI Community Connection • 2021 ASCE Pittsburgh Civil Engineering Achievement • 2021 ESWP Sustainability Project of the Year • 2020/2021 ABCD Outstanding New Special-Purpose Structure • 2021 WTS Innovative Transportation Solutions Award • 2021/2022 ABCD, Susquehanna Chapter Award for Medium Span Category CAP from page 44 see CAP page 110

Fay utilized a Komatsu PC350 excavator to install temporary shoring for the abutment footers. Amelie, a subcontractor, used a Comacchio MC22 rig to drill the micropiles for the bridge foundation. Another subcontractor, McCrossin, drilled the caissons for the pier using an AF180 drilling rig.

“I have managed many bridge projects, but this one will always be special to me,” Grabner said. “With a park on top that has many ESG features, including unique stormwater management and cultural aspects from the neighboring community, it is not only a physical bridge over a highway, but a metaphoric bridge to allow a community to reflect on its culture and have better access to downtown businesses.”

Pittsburgh’s Cap Project Earns Several NationalAwards

“After constructing the bridge with this robust foundation, Fay erected 18 million pounds of adjacent box beams to the main bridge structure using Manitowoc MLC300 VMAX cranes to lift the beams,” Grabner said. “A Garlock safety rail system allowed deck work to progress safely and

The project team formed pier columns using a JLG 460SJ lift to allow workers to access the top and hoist a Garbo bucket to place the concrete.

The I-579 Cap project added Frankie Pace Park, which incorporates local art and sustainability throughout the Hill District. As part of the design phase, the city held community sessions and design reviews to gauge input from Hill District residents and stakeholders. Residents chose the following six themes for Frankie Pace Park: water, green, destination, music, seating and last but not least, connection.The park’s storyboard wall art depicts the lives of important Hill District community figures; Martin Delany, an abolitionist, educator and journalist; and Frankie Pace, a community organizer and business owner. Local union workers collaborated with professional artists to create murals and pavement designs.A music-themed outdoor classroom garden provides a place for learning. As part of the stormwater management system, rainwater gardens benefit visitors and reflect the project’s sustainability.Afterthecity divided the Hill District and downtown, the community lost a significant amount of its peak population. The remaining population experiences notably high unemployment rates compared with the regional average. More than half of the residents use public transportation or walk to work. The Cap project provides a direct walking path to downtown, providing Hill District residents with more job opportunities and a reliable commute. These results demonstrate the project’s larger objectives: convenience to residents and greater community access to jobs.

Grabner said that the Fay team approached this project with the highest safety commitment to workers and the general“Projectpublic.safety was highly critical, with the work site amid an urban environment,” he said. “Specifically, workers constructed the 225-foot by 225foot bridge over an existing PennDOT interstate bordering adjacent city roads, including multiple interfacing ramps in the work zone.

The Cap project provides a safe walking path to downtown, providing Hill District residents with more job opportunities and a reliable commute. Benches and resting areas offer comfortable seating and add to the park’s public amenities. The new path to the Steel Plaza subway station and the new bus stop on CentreAvenue provide safer means of public transportation.“The Fay team maintained its focus on safety when removing the adjacent bridge,” Grabner said. “It used an engineered overhang box suspended by a Volvo ECR235E hydraulic excavator to remove the existing overhang structure adjacent to live interstate lanes below. This approach successfully controlled debris without using standard overhang jacks on fascia girders, which were to remain in Avoidingplace.”the additional waste caused by large hydraulic hammers, the Fay team instead used a wire saw to remove retaining wall sections. The Fay team ensured secure connections during removal by attaching steel rigging brackets to the excavator.

Shade from the trees planted will diminish heat from the pavement and reduce the energy needed to cool down nearby buildings. In addition to the trees, project workers planted 4,000 new plants throughout the park.

The Cap project improved pedestrian and cyclist safety by providing upgrades to the surrounding area. The team removed the Webster Avenue Bridge sidewalk and upgraded the pedestrian crosswalks at Bigelow Boulevard and Chatham Street due to their poor condition.The paths added to the park are entirely ADA accessible, and path lighting helps provide safety to park pedestrians and cyclists.

He added that sustainability is a key focus throughout Frankie Pace Park’s three acres. The park lawns catch stormwater running from I-579 and can absorb up to 6 in. of rainwater. Trench drains work alongside runoff management to collect stormwater and direct it toward the six rain gardens in the northwestern area of the park. Rain is evaporated or absorbed by plants and soil in the rain gardens and park lawns, reducing the stormwater runoff to the sewer system.

“It has become far more common for us to crush on site because there are fewer and fewer facilities that will accept broken concrete and brick,” said Oppenheim. “It’s becoming a ‘Lead Green Item,’where if the site is conducive to taking the material as backfill, a lot of developers and general contractors do want you to crush on site and it saves them money. They don’t have to buy as much gravel and they save money on trucking.”

Equipment Is Backbone of Operation

“Our fleet is made up of Doosan [DL420 loaders and DX420 excavators] that we purchased from Equipment East. The transition to Doosan started several years ago when Kyle Brockway with Equipment East see DEMOLITION page 102 (L-R) are Garrett Arnold, Bob Oppenheim (president) and John Silva, all of Regional Companies, and Kyle Brockway, sales rep of Equipment East. This massive concrete foundation pylon is an example of the digging and lifting power the Doosan DX420 brings to the table.

“It’s so important to have key employees who stick with you over the years,” said Oppenheim. “Guys like John Silva, senior job superintendent, who has been with me 12 years. We’ve been in business since 1994 and we have had our ups and downs. We’re rocking and rolling now and it’s because of guys like John, who care. Guys that push to get the job done but push it within reason to keep the job site safe.”

Other key contributors to Regional’s growth, according to Oppenheim, includes Labor Superintendent Thais DeSouza, who has been with the company for 16 years; Senior Project Manager Larry Hurley, who has logged 30 years; and Vice President Mitch DeLorenzo, who has been with Regional for six Oppenheim’syears.first project was in Attleboro, Mass., taking down the Sturdy Lantern Company to make way for a new Shaws grocery store. By the late ‘90s and early 2000s, he was able to upgrade his equipment fleet and progressively started to tackle larger demolition projects.

Rob Oppenheim’s company, The Regional Companies of Shrewsbury, Mass., proudly proclaims the title of the “Fastest Growing Demolition Company in Massachusetts.” But when Oppenheim started his business, his only equipment was two tired excavators that were nearly ready for the junk pile. Today, Regional has a fleet of 10 machines and employs 27 people.

One of the company’s early breakthrough projects was the demolition of the 600,000-sq.-ft. Sealtest ice cream facility in Framingham, Mass., with 30,000 tons of concrete, 10,000 tons of steel and 5 million lbs. of stainless steel.

Another substantial project was the Draper Mill Factory — an old manufacturer of looms. Regional salvaged more than 1 million board ft. of southern yellow pine and approximately 8,000 tons of steel from the 1.3 million-sq.-ft. facility. The project took 14 months and was completed in 2021.In2013, Regional took down the U.S. steel plant in Worcester, Mass., a 750,000sq.-ft. facility, recycling 9,500 tons of steel and crushing on site 18,000 tons of reinforcedAndconcrete.yetanother important project was at the site of the former Exxon Mobil Tank Refinery in Stratford Conn. There, Exxon manufactured the big tanks used in the refining process working out of a 750,000 sq.-ft. complex. Regional’s demolition work included recycling 25,000 tons on concrete on site as well as material removal and site Onsiteremediation.crushingis not uncommon for Regional. It owns a portable tracked crusher, which has become a very profitable part of its operation.

His beam performed the way he hoped, as it exhibited small cracks and minor bowing, or what Poblete described as “flexural cracking and deflection.” The test proceeded through a series of steady weight increases followed by temporary plateaus, the spidering cracks documented by graduate students wielding black markers crawling under and around the beam.

The judging will take place by a diverse panel of Associated General Contractors of America (AGC) members. Ten finalists identified by the AGC panel will receive recognition within their booth space. On-site at ConExpoCon/AGG and IFPE, show attendees will have the opportunity to visit the 10 finalists’booths and vote for their favorite Next Level product or service in the Contractor’s Choice Award.“AGC is excited to be partnering with the Association of Equipment Manufacturers on its Next Level awards initiative to recognize innovation in the construction industry and to highlight tools and solutions that will enable our members to build safer, more efficiently, and more effectively,” said Steve Sandherr, CEO, AGC of America.

The awards program is open to all 2023 ConExpoCon/AGG and IFPE exhibitors in good standing that have created products or services for the construction industry that have one or more of the following characteristics:

Finally, the load was increased to 12,000 lbs., a weight far above its design strength, at which point an obvious failure occurred when a large chunk finally broke off, according to an article on the university website.

Her method allowed them to make steel formwork with complex curvature like Ismail wanted almost as easily as she could make formwork for a flat beam.

“We are excited to recognize the innovative construction products that are taking the industry to the next level.”

While he is excited about the potential for things like 3-D printed housing, that is decades away, and people need homes now, he said.

While he said there was nothing unusual about the concrete used, he noted “all of the materials were made in Arkansas. The coarse aggregate was quarried in Hindsville, the sand was from the Arkansas River in Van Buren, the cement was made in Foreman, [and] the water was from Beaver Lake. Concrete is inherently a local material.”

Beam Successfully ÂFailedÊ Test as Hoped

Cameron Murray, an assistant professor of civil engineering at UA who advises Poblete, assisted with the pouring of concrete into the formwork the week prior to the test.

Applications are accepted now through Nov. 30, 2022.

The conventionality of the materials underscored Ismail’s larger goal: he is interested in more efficient and sustainable design, but not necessarily revolutionary new materials.

•Addresses a common industry need in a unique and innovative way.

The actual beam test proved uneventful in the way success often does. It was designed to carry 8,500 lbs., and beyond that, the goal was to fail safely, in what Ismail describes as a “slow, ductile manner.You don’t want it to collapse suddenly and in a scary way.”

Emily and Edmund had been working on a method that can be replicated anywhere in the world quite easily.”

ConExpo-Con/AGG and the International Fluid Power Exposition (IFPE) recently unveiled the Next Level Awards Program to exhibitors for the March 2023 show.

“We can apply these principles to materials that already have a flatness to them and manufacture pieces that are more efficient in strength and yet use fewer resources,” he explained.Theopportunity to prove it came when Baker ran into Ismail at a conference, found they had common research interests, and invited him to speak to her class. While Ismail was talking to her class about beam optimization, a lightbulb went off over her head: Maybe the Zip-Form system could be used to help Ismail create a beam of complex curvature? What followed were months of collaboration. Inherent in their discussion was that fabrication methods were inextricable from the design. As Ismail explained, “We’re trying to develop methods that are fabrication-aware. When we’re actually designing and optimizing the structure, we know how it’s going to be built, and the rules of how it’s going to be built go back into the design process so it’s more circular and not as linear. So, we had months of conversations with Emily and Edmund about the actual mathematical principles behind their ZipForm system. What were the limits? What were the constraints?And then we found a way to put that into our structuralFinally,model.”Ismail was ready to see his unorthodox beam design become a reality. Harriss’ computations and Baker’s jig-system were essential to shaping the formwork, which was created at the Fay Jones School’s Build Lab in Fayetteville, where Baker oversees the digital steel lab.

Ismal also believes the stress test’s results revealed the tip of the “There’siceberg.somuch more we can do,” he explained. “There are more complex structures we can design, and then there’s more testing that we can do that gets into much more rigorous things like dynamic loading, testing for vibrations, and all sorts of things that theArkansas structures’lab is definitely capable of. So, this was, in a lot of ways, proof that this idea can work, and now we need to actually develop it further.”

• Benefits the industry across multiple applications for industry wide adoption.

A form designed through the Zip-Form system allowed a concrete beam to be poured using less concrete but maintaining strength.

“Exhibitors, large and small, have an opportunity to be recognized for driving ideas and developing products or services to advance the industry.This is an exciting edition to ConExpo-Con/AGG and IFPE and we strongly encourage exhibitors to enter.”

The ConExpo-Con/AGG Next Level Awards celebrate exhibiting companies that are pushing the boundaries and developing next-level products, technologies and services designed to advance the construction industry. Ten finalists will be highlighted at ConExpo-Con/AGG and IFPE, March 14 to 18, 2023, in Las Vegas, with show attendees voting onsite to determine the Contractors’Top Choice.

“This is a vast improvement on other methods that might be used to make curving formwork,” she said in describing the process.

When the test was concluded, Ismail was relieved that his beam had done what it was designed to do, and with a lot less concrete than usual.

“Our group is interested in what is applicable today, like what can we go out and build right now. And that’s why we’re looking at regular strength concrete, regular strength steel, and fabrication methods that are relatively cheap and affordable, which is why this Arkansas project was so exciting.

J.W. White Contracting of Framingham, Mass., is the lead contractor on the project that has a budget of $156 million that will be paid for by state and federal funding.

Chris Blanchard, a J.W. White project manager, said preliminary work has been completed, including removal of existing wall panels, installation of temporary lighting, access openings and formwork for pending concrete flow materials at existing ducts under box sections. The company is now making concrete wall repairs and removing and relocatingMassDOTutilities.reported that the project will repair chipped and crumbling concrete, rusted reinforcements, cracked wall panels, broken light fixtures and deteriorating roadway surfaces. It also will restore the overhead arch and ceiling, paint interior tunnel walls, add fireproof boards, install new lights inside the tunnel and install new utility conduits and cables.

The restoration of the Boston Sumner Tunnel, which carries traffic under the Boston Harbor, from Logan InternationalAirport and Route 1Ain East Boston, began in February and is scheduled for completion in January 2024.

Accelerated techniques and materials, such as offsite prefabrication and high-performance concrete, will be used to accelerate construction. The design-build approach provides financial incentives for the construction firm to finish the work on time or sooner and penalizes them for delayed timelines.The construction equipment J.W. White is using on the project includes a Bobcat skid steer, Ingersoll Rand air compressors, Honda generators and a water buffalo, which is a water wagon that stores and transports water.

The restoration of the Boston Sumner Tunnel, which carries traffic under the Boston Harbor, from Logan International Airport and Route 1A in East Boston, began in February and is scheduled for completion in January 2024.

J.W. White Contracting Begins Sumner Tunnel Restoration

The contractor, J.W. White, drills core holes for flow fill placements — 12 at each side, East Boston and North End, for a total of 24 core holes.

The construction firm is required to use dust control measures during work, including the use of wetting agents, secure covers for trucks and minimizing storage of debris on site.

The Sumner Tunnel was built in the 1930s and is the first traffic tunnel in Massachusetts and one of the oldest in the nation.“The Sumner Tunnel is well beyond patches and repairs: the only way to keep it in service is with a top-to-bottom restoration,” the Massachusetts Department of Transportation said. “Corrosion and wear-and-tear have deeply impacted wall panels and gutters. There’s exposed rebar on the ceiling, and even after resurfacing, pavement conditions are poor.”

“The original length of the full tunnel closure was seven months,” said MassDOT. “The current construction plan entails accelerated construction techniques and work taking place 24/7 inside the tunnel. This allowed us to shorten the full tunnel closure to only four months with 36 weekend closures leading up to the full closure and 12 weekend closures following it. By coordinating a four-month full tunnel shutdown, we are avoiding 40 individual weekend shutdowns. This helped us to shorten the construction timeline by 10 months.”Thesubcontractors on the project include K. DaPonte Construction Corp., Fall River, Mass.; Taibbi Equipment Corp., Wakefield, Mass.; Patriot Traffic, Braintree, Mass.; Eastwind Corp., Stoughton, Mass.; and Todisco Towing, Boston.“This restoration will provide many public benefits including improved tunnel safety, a smoother, more durable roadway surface, new lighting and security systems and better cell phone, GPS and radio service inside the tunnel,” MassDOT said. “With this work, we expect to keep the Sumner Tunnel in service for another century or more.”  CEG (All photos courtesy of J.W.

Concrete Paving Train for High Quality, Cost-Effectiveness, Flexibility

With lifting columns connected directly to the chassis, the application-optimized configuration of the SP 20(i) enables efficient paving of monolithic concrete profiles with a height of up to 6.5 ft. or concrete surfaces with a maximum width of 8.2 ft.

The concrete is poured evenly over the pre-placed steel rebar in front of the slipform paver and distributed across the entire working width. The SP94(i) slipform paver then compacts and paves the concrete mix.

For more information, visit wirtgen-group.com.

The paving train is set up for a working width of 24 ft. A placer/spreader such as the WPS 102(i) generally comes into play when paving over pre-placed steel rebar. It travels in front of the slipform paver over the pre-placed steel rebar, while concrete is fed to the belt conveyor swung out from the side from a concrete mixer or a tipper truck.

Developed in-house by Wirtgen,AutoPilot 2.0 is a control system for stringless paving that serves as an alternative to the conventional method of mechanically scanning a stringline. The system, which precisely controls both the height adjustment and steering of the machine, is available for all offset pavers and placer/spreaders.

Apart from the SP 15(i) and SP 20(i) offset pavers at this year’s bauma, Wirtgen also is showing a complete paving train for fully reinforced concrete paving. This comprises a WPS 102(i) placer/spreader, an SP 94(i) inset paver, and a TCM 180(i) texture curing machine. Also making an appearance at the show is an SP 124(i) with a new, integrated dowel bar inserter. All compatible machines at the show also will feature Wirtgen’s own, specially developed, AutoPilot 2.0 control system for stringless paving.

SP 124(i) The largest slipform paver on show at this year’s Bauma is the SP 124(i). The 4-track paver can be configured for paving at a working width of 39 ft. and fits seamlessly into the fleet-wide operating concept of slipform pavers from WIRTGEN.Themachine is fitted with the latest generation of the integrated dowel bar inserter. The dowel bars are extracted from the magazine by a chain feed system with an endless chain and automatically transported to the insertion location.

World Premiere of SP 20(i) Offset Paver

The paver at the show, which has a maximum working width of 32 ft., is fitted with a TeleMold system. It enables fast and convenient alteration of the working width by up to 3 ft. on each side, resulting in an overall increase of 6 ft. This increases the flexibility and productive utilization time of the machine by the reduction of down times.

“Smart” cylinders with displacement sensors precisely position the dowel bar inserter at the desired locations. The high degree of automation reduces the proportion of manual work required, increases process reliability, and, ultimately, the cost-effectiveness of the process.

Thegeometries.systemis conveniently operable from a tablet PC, which also supports the generation and editing of terrain models. Wirtgen AutoPilot 2.0 offers machine control and stringless control for concrete paving in one.

The final link in the process chain is the TCM 180(i). This field-proven texture curing machine applies the desired finish to the surface of the freshly paved concrete. It enables the realization of lengthwise and crosswise textures and predefined surface roughness in accordance with project specifications. It also allows the application of a range of different curing agents to the concrete surface, for example a concrete surface retarder.

In the case of the inset pavers, Wirtgen is showing a train of three perfectly coordinated machines for the paving of high quality concrete traffic infrastructure. All three feature concrete paving equipment with the Imperial dimensions typical for the U.S. market.

A GNSS signal and, depending on the configuration, various local sensors (e.g. an ultrasonic sensor on the machine), serve as a reference. The time and effort otherwise required for setting up and removing the stringline is eliminated. It also enables fast and precise paving of tight radii and complex

Wirtgen Brings Innovations, World Premiere to bauma 2022

The production of concrete safety barriers with a height of up to 6.5 ft. and the paving of flat surfaces with widths of up to 8.2 ft. are typical applications for the SP 20(i) offset paver. With the new machine, Wirtgen offers its customers an ideal combination of productivity and mobility, according to the manufacturer. Despite the large paving widths and heights it offers, the machine has a low transport weight and compact dimensions.Thecompact SP 15(i) has been delivering outstanding performance in a wide range of application scenarios around the world for many years. In Munich, it is fitted with a “Curb Depressor Mold”, which enables automated paving of lowered curb profiles, as are often found on driveways. The paving process can proceed without interruption and the need for manual reworking is significantly reduced.

A 24-ft. paving train, consisting of a WPS 102(i), an SP 94(i) with a TeleMold system and a TCM 180(i), offers the entire range of options available for fully reinforced concrete paving.

Adams said at Granite Construction, the Watsonville, Calif.-based infrastructure contractor celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, sustainability is integrated into each project in the form of social responsibility, environmental stewardship and dependable governance because it delivers enduring economic value. She said that incorporation of sustainability principles not only helps them reduce costs and waste, but helps them develop new market opportunities, and attract, engage and retain talent, a key concern among all companies that work in the various trades.

Tips to How Sustainability Works forYour Contracting Company

In other words, it is a smart way to eliminate waste and maximize value at every stage of a project.

3. Educate your stakeholders to generate buy-in. As the saying goes, “A person convinced against their will is of the same opinion still.” Making sure an organization’s stakeholders are properly educated and bought-in will help lead to sustainable success.

Page 66 • August 31, 2022 • www.constructionequipmentguide.com • Paving Section • Construction Equipment Guide

4. Understand the psychology of goal setting. Businesses are no stranger to setting goals for performance but knowing why goals exist will lead to more productive, and attainable, goals being set.

Ultimately, Adams said there were five lessons learned at Granite to both initiating a sustainability strategy, and making it work for everyone:

In its World of Asphalt 2022 session “Developing a Sustainability Program that Works for Your Company,” University of Nevada Reno Professor Adam Hand and Granite Construction Sustainability Manager Raven Adams made the case for asphalt pavement and infrastructure construction companies to develop a sustainability program, and how to approach it.

Initiate Strategy...

...over

1. Lead with the value proposition. Sustainability isn’t just good for the environment, it’s good for the bottom line as 2.well.Connect the right teams. Different teams will have different responsibilities and contributions to both create and implement the plan. Knowing who they are and what they can do ahead of time will lead to a greater chance of success.

According to Hand and Adams, over the past 30 years, a dollar invested in a company with a high commitment in sustainability will have grown 47 percent more than that same dollar invested in a peer company without a high commitment to InWhy?sustainability.thecaseofinfrastructure companies, Adams and Hand cite the Inter-American Development Bank saying, in 2018, that sustainability infrastructure projects “are planned, designed, constructed, operated and decommissioned in a manner to ensure economic and financial, social, environmental and institutional sustainability over the entire life cycle of the project.”

For more education on sustainability, ConExpoCon/AGG, running March 14 to 18, 2023, at the Las Vegas Convention Center, has its own sustainability track for education sessions.  the past 30 years, a dollar invested in a company with a high commitment in sustainability will have grown 47 percent...

5. Understand the organization’s data systems to measure for continuous improvement. Knowing an organization’s data systems will help with understanding what can be measured, and what can be improved.

Sustainability is a growing concern for all segments of the economy, including construction and paving companies. Not only because of the environmental impact on the community, but for the economic impact on companies as well.

The IB Services team were entrusted with the essential task of renewing the plant, scrupulously and spotlessly blast-cleaning the biomass-encrusted kilns. In order to complete this very tough and demanding sandblasting project in time for its tight deadline, the IBS team needed equipment that it knew could perform with the utmost reliability and efficiency, 24/7. As the ideal partner for tough projects that need continuous output, they opted to use Atlas Copco’s zero emission, low cost and ultra-quiet E-Air electric compressors. Proving their ability to perform in the most demanding of applications, the electric compressors powered the maintenance project 24/7, without any requirement to stop and refuel. And running at 61dB, the quiet nature of the compressor allowed those in the vicinity work without noise distraction, enhancing both productivity and noise safety.

The E-Air range turns electricity into kinetic energy by compressing and pressurizing air. The absence of combustion emissions, combined with low noise levels, make the range a perfect match for power plant maintenance where indoor or underground applications are required. It delivers more freedom to users and allows for low-maintenance easy plug and play installation- all while producing zero Poweredemissions.byelectricity rather than fuel, the energy-efficient E-Air also offers savings of up to 50 percent in running costs for the end user when compared to its diesel counterpart- a significant cost-advantage for any sites and applications where there is a ready electric power supply.

It is not always easy, however, to know when maintenance on the CTS system is required or what visual clues are indicative of equipment repairs. This is especially true as one part of the CTS system can often wear at a different rate than the others.Here are a few CTS maintenance tips that will keep contractors digging efficiently and machines hard at work.

Understanding visual clues are imperative to keeping equipment efficient. But, what exactly should contractors look for when inspecting their CTS components?

One answer is an apple core. The main wear component on a digging system is the chain rollers. If the rollers start to look like an apple core — or if the pin is visible — then it’s time to replace it. Because the roller is the one component of the CTS system that is constantly used, operators should be sure to inspect it often. While looking at the rollers, it’s also important to inspect the sprockets. Sprockets are engineered to interact with the trencher chain to enhance the overall performance and wear life of all digging components. When the teeth on a sprocket start “thinning” it is time for a replacement. It is strongly recommended that customers replace the head-shaft sprocket when replacing the digging chain. Not changing the sprocket will likely lead to premature wear on the new chain and will end up costing you more money.

UnderstandLimitationsEquipmentÊs

When it comes to extending the life of a trencher and boosting the bottom line, following best practices and adhering to recommended maintenance routines play a critical role. However, contractors who look for visual clues of wear and tear understand that not all soil is created equal, know that different size trenchers require different chain tension and understand that every piece of equipment has its limitations can keep their trenchers digging deep and ensure jobsite safety and success.

One of the most common causes of CTS wear and tear occurs when a system is forced to perform a task beyond what the machine is designed to do. Many contractors think that if the trencher’s engine starts, then the digging system is ready to work. But depending on the jobsite conditions where the equipment is being used, the CTS components need to be frequently monitored to maintain jobsite efficiency.Toensure that trenchers are in peak condition, it’s important to know the limitations of the machine and correctly match the CTS system to the conditions that they are digging in. Not properly outfitting the CTS system with the correct chain and teeth for the ground conditions can lead to increased wear and tear on the digging system and trencher unit — ultimately causing costly downtime.

Whether operating a ride-on trencher or walk-behind machine, it’s the performance parts — the chain, teeth and sprockets (CTS) — that help keep crews efficient and profitable. To maintain jobsite uptime, it’s important for industry professionals to be diligent with regular CTS maintenance and equipment best practices.

CTSMaintenanceBestPracticesHelpBoostJobsiteSuccess

Maintaining Jobsite Success

Regardless of soil conditions, it’s always best practice for contractors to consult their local Ditch Witch dealer to help ensure they are set up for success.

Look for Tooth Wear, Tear Another indicator of CTS component wear and tear can be seen on the trencher’s teeth.Manufacturers like Ditch Witch often apply carbide to reinforce the strength of the teeth and extend the life of a machine. However, when that carbide begins to wear down to the base steel, the tooth becomes worn and risks breaking off. Aworn-down tooth can negatively impact a machine’s efficiency. For example, when the front tooth begins to thin — and it is not addressed — the other teeth are then forced to take more of the shock load and the brunt of the labor. This can prematurely wear out the other teeth and risk the loss of teeth altogether.Asa best practice, contractors should either replace teeth that have worn down right away or replace all the teeth together. This will help save time, money and minimize additional tooth wear and tear.

Match Tooth Configurationto Soil Conditions Success is all about using the right tool for the job. For trenchers, that means knowing the correct tooth configuration for the kind of soil and ground conditions on the job site. Not only will this help extend the life of the trencher, but it also will keep operators efficient and profitable. For example, a cup tooth is the standard utility tooth for most soil conditions. It is designed for soft and medium-type soils and has a scooped shape. Due to natural wear and tear, cup teeth will often lose their hard surface. Signs of excessive wear are noticeable at the wider points of the teeth, and wear will begin to show into the body of the tooth. In cases of extreme wear, the tooth will shear off, drastically reducingAnotherproductivitytooththatplays an important role in the digging process is the shark tooth. Named for its resemblance to a shark’s tooth, it is designed to pick and break through harder soil. This is ideal for operators trenching through rocky or frozen ground. However, it’s important for contractors to frequently check for fractures or chips in the teeth and replace them immediately to minimize equipment damage and downtime. If a job site is filled with rocky soil, an alligator tooth can help contractors stay efficient. It constantly rotates while in operation, meaning that the teeth chip away at different parts of the soil throughout the digging process. However, if contractors notice any teeth at a standstill, they should inspect the teeth immediately and replace as necessary.

Chain tension plays an important role in how the machine operates. Improperly tensioned chains will lead to premature wear and will not perform as well. To prevent abnormal wear and tear on trencher chains, operators should ensure that the chain has the appropriate tension by regularly checking its fit. This will ultimately improve productivity and prevent any lost revenue from efficiency lags or downtime.

Hardscape, landscape and dedicated green industry professionals know that the productivity of an operation is often determined by theirWhetherequipment.operating a ride-on trencher or walk-behind machine, it’s the performance parts — the chain, teeth and sprockets (CTS) — that help keep crews efficient and profitable. To maintain jobsite uptime, it’s important for industry professionals to be diligent with regular CTS maintenance and equipment best practices.

Stay Vigilant On Visual Clues

The proper tension for a trencher chain can be found in the operator’s manual for the equipment.Chainsare available in multiple sizes for a variety of different trenchers. When checking the tension, contractors should ensure the chain is not sagging or too tight. If chains do begin to sag, they’ll vibrate the equipment and cause unnecessary wear; if chains are too tight, different wear patterns on the sprocket or sidebars will begin to appear.

Check Proper Chain Tension

It’s important for contractors to keep in mind that larger trenchers require bigger chains that will require more sag than smaller equipment. As such, industry experts agree that a good rule of thumb when checking proper chain tension on a standard walk-behind trencher is that two to three fingers should fit between the chain and the lower part of the boom.

The Arbor Day Foundation announced a partnership with ConExpo-Con/AGG and the International Fluid Power Exposition (IFPE), the largest construction trade show in NorthTogetherAmerica.the organizations will work to plant more than 130,000 trees, one for every show registrant, in U.S. forests of greatest need. For the past 50 years, the Arbor Day Foundation has worked to plant nearly 500 million trees around the world. Through a vast network of partnerships, the Foundation facilitates projects that empower organizations of all sizes to reach their ESG, CSR and sustainability goals via measurable, impactful work.

 QUEENS from page 20

The project is part of a $2.5 billion investment made by the city to build a comprehensive drainage system, improve street conditions and alleviate flooding in neighborhoods throughout southeast Queens. The program, the largest of its kind, consists of 44 projects overall, including 18 that are substantially completed and three that are in active construction.

Work in South Jamaica and St. Albans began in June 2020 and occurred on nine individual blocks. To alleviate flooding, 3,190 ft. of storm sewers ranging from 12 to 66 in. in diameter were added to the neighborhoods, plus an additional 230 ft. of existing storm sewers were replaced.

“The opportunity to plant trees in conjunction with one of the largest trade shows in NorthAmerica will have an incredible impact on our reforestation efforts,” said Dan Lambe, chief executive of the Arbor Day Foundation.

Attendees and exhibitors at the show can choose to make an additional contribution to the tree planting effort to increase the impact of the partnership. More information on planting locations and specific project details will be announced in the months leading up to the March 2023 show.

About Arbor Day Foundation

“The early completion of this project has come right on time since we are now in hurricane season.As flooding is one of our major issues, we must continue this kind of forward progress in places like South Jamaica, St. Albans and other communities in southeast Queens to keep us safe,” said State Senator James Sanders Jr. “I thank the Department of Environment Protection, the Department of Design and Construction, and the project team for their diligence and intricate planning to keep this project moving ahead of “Addingtime.” to the resilience of our neighborhoods is a critical priority as once-in-a-hundred-years storms become once-in-a-decade storms,” said State Senator Leroy Comrie. “I welcome this DEP and DDC announcement that upgrades to our water infrastructure mean both South Jamaica and St. Albans are better equipped to cope with flooding and the impacts of extreme weather. As we continue to pursue resilience, it is critical that all our neighborhoods receive the investments they need to cope with potential disasters.”“During every heavy rainfall, residents in southeast Queens have to worry about whether their property will flood. This has become an unfortunate reality for our residents. I am glad to see that the NYC Department of Environmental Protection and the NYC Department of Design and Construction have completed the work for the much-needed infrastructure repair in the communities of St.Albans and South Jamaica. These neighborhoods will be provided with some relief as we enter our rain season,” said Council Member Nantasha Williams.

Thirteen new catch basins were installed and 35 old ones were replaced to better capture stormwater and direct it to the new storm sewers. The holding capacity of the local sewers was increased with the installation of one new underground chamber and the replacement of an old one.

“We know that trees are a key part of the solution to some of the biggest issues facing our planet, and partners like ConExpo-Con/AGG and IFPE can help us achieve the scale necessary to drive meaningful impact in the places that need it most.”Held every three years, ConExpo-Con/AGG, IFPE attracts attendees from all sectors of the construction industry. The partnership with The Arbor Day Foundation is the first of many steps in helping reduce the industry’s carbon footprint and increase sustainability efforts at the show. In addition, ConExpo-Con/AGG’s education will feature 13 different sessions for attendees that focus on sustainability, including tracking emissions, recycling and carbon neutrality.“Our show is about finding solutions to challenges,” said Dana Wuesthoff, ConExpo-Con/AGG show director. “More and more, our attendees and exhibitors are challenged to think of the greater good in their business practices.

Founded in 1972, theArbor Day Foundation has grown to become the largest nonprofit membership organization dedicated to planting trees, with more than one million members, supporters and valued partners. Since 1972, almost 500 million Arbor Day Foundation trees have been planted in neighborhoods, communities, cities and forests throughout the world. Its vision is to lead toward a world where trees are used to solve issues critical to survival. As one of the world’s largest operating conservation foundations, the Arbor Day Foundation, through its members, partners and programs, educates and engages stakeholders and communities across the globe to involve themselves in its mission of planting, nurturing and celebrating trees.

“I look forward to working with the agencies to continue improving the infrastructure and quality of life of my constituents.”“Myconstituents and I are thankful to Mayor Adams, NYC Department of Environmental Protection Commissioner Rohit Aggarwala and his staff as well as the NYC Department of Design and Construction Commissioner Thomas Foley and staff for their urgency in addressing this issue in South Jamaica and St. Albans,” said Assembly Member Alicia Hyndman. “This is the right step on the path of progress to help alleviate the many years of flooding our communities have endured.”

“[DNR] has been in contact withTheAntarctican Society about the salvage efforts of the RV Hero,” explained Charles H Lagerbom, the organization’s archivist. “We have been assured we will receive photos and images of the removal process.” He added that a trucking company stands ready to bring

A project to demolish the research vessel Hero in Bay Center, Wash., is well under way, with the contractor predicting the job will be finished by mid-September. The legendary wooden boat operated in the Antarctic for 16 years until she was decommissioned in 1984. Following that, the RV Hero suffered from neglect before decaying and sinking in Washington’s Palix River estuary in the winter of 2017.

Funds came in a special one-time appropriation by the Washington State Legislature. The project has grabbed the attention of travelers along Bay Center Dike Road, who often slow down or stop on the road completely to watch the heavy equipment in action. Many snap photos as the excavator reaches down, crunches a piece of the legendary boat, and pulls it aboard the barge. Ballard Marine removed the wreck of the RV Hero from the site of its sinking. That is mainly because the project involves rapid aerial work over the street, something that is safest to do without traffic nearby, DNR said.

While the old boat became a major eyesore for the residents of Bay Center and a significant concern of local fishermen and oyster farmers concerned about pollution coming from the RV Hero, not everyone is happy to see the vesselBeforedemolished.itsdemise, the vessel was world-renowned for its research around the globe, including multiple forays to Antarctica.Maritime experts in the state of Maine are proud of the 125-ft. vessel that was built in 1968 and launched by Harvey Gamage at his shipyard in South Bristol.

“They’re currently focusing on getting harmful pollutants out from inside the ship, primarily lead and asbestos, but have begun some demolition,” Joe Smillie, spokesperson of the Washington Department of Natural Resources (DNR), told the newspaper. “Overall, they’re about a third of the way through the project. They will be ramping up demolition efforts in [the] coming weeks.”Aftera public bid, the demolition was awarded to Ballard Marine for $1.8 million, not including hazardous material removal or disposal.The total project is expected to be more than $2.5 million due to the asbestos contaminated material, and lead and toxic PCBs on the vessel, DNR noted.

Crews from Washougal, Wash.’s Ballard Marine Construction have been working on the wreckage for about a month, according to the Chinook Observer in Long Beach, removing hazardous chemicals to pick it apart piece by piece. A massive crane and excavators on a barge have done most of the work.

“Whenpreparation.VolvoCEenters a new size class, we want to meet the needs of our customers while also making an impression,” said Sejong Ko, product manager, excavators, at Volvo CE. “We’ve done that with the EC530E and EC550E excavators. Contractors get the power of a larger machine at a lower weight, along with additional fuel-saving and uptime-enhancing features.”

Fuel Efficiency With IMVT

The EC530E and EC550E are eligible for ActiveCare Direct, Volvo’s advanced telematics service.

Volvo Construction Equipment is entering the 50-ton class for excavators with two models — the EC530E and EC550E — that have digging and lifting forces normally found in 60ton machines, giving contractors the performance they need to excel in heavy-duty digging, mass excavation and largescale site

The EC550E undercarriage has a long and wide lower frame, giving it extra stability when working with heavier loads. The undercarriage on the EC530E, meanwhile, shares the same transportation dimensions — and loading convenience — as Volvo’s 48-ton EC480E. Both machines’ boom and arm boast a larger pin size for added strength. Also, like all Volvo excavators, both models are backed by the Volvo Lifetime Frame and Structure Warranty, which covers the frame, boom and arm for the entirety of the initial ownership period.

When coupled with large buckets, the EC530E and EC550E are perfectly suited to fill articulated haulers in the 30- to 40-ton class, requiring fewer passes to load them and reducing cycle times.

To increase uptime, hydraulic pilot lines have been removed, reducing the number of couplings needed. Maintenance time and costs are further reduced by the recent extension of Volvo engine oil change intervals to 1,000 hours when using Volvo VDS 4.5 oil.

Also characteristic of bigger equipment is the super-rigid reinforced undercarriage, providing durability and strength. This is supported by equally sturdy lower and upper frames.

Volvo Construction Introduces Two

The EC530E and EC550E feature the highest engine power in the class, providing high tractive force and swing torque. When coupled with large buckets, the EC530E and EC550E are perfectly suited to fill articulated haulers in the 30- to 40-ton class, requiring fewer passes to load them and reducing cycle times. This combination can boost productivity by up to 20 percent, according to the manufacturer.

New Excavators in 50-Ton Class Size

Productivity, Uptime Features Operators are further assisted by the optional Dig Assist machine control system, powered by Volvo Co-Pilot and designed to deliver excavation accuracy in a fraction of the time of conventional methods.

The electro hydraulics system contributes to a 25 percent improvement in fuel efficiency due to Independent Metering Valve Technology (IMVT) that, due to intelligent electronic control, offers more precise operation and efficiency than a traditional mechanically coupled hydraulic system. Engine pump optimization lowers engine speed while maintaining power.TheEC530E and EC550E offer high levels of control and efficiency for all applications, including creep mode for precise lift-and-carry work and optional Comfort Drive Control (CDC). CDC helps reduce operator fatigue by allowing the excavator to be steered with joystick rollers instead of pedals.Operators also can select functions like boom/swing and boom/travel priority, which enables one function to take the lead over another. The boom-down speed also can be adjusted, giving optimum control for tasks that require extra precision. New boom-and-arm bounce reduction technology lessens machine shock.

Projects DEMOLITION

Common demolition practices, such as implosions and concrete crushing, send massive amounts of harmful dust particles into the atmosphere. Dust suppression cannons are one of the best ways to combat this hazard.

Bay State’s The Regional Companies Tackles of from page 56

Midsize dust suppression cannons offer the best allaround support because they can control dust on small or large job sites. C.W. Machine Worx (WORX) offers Generac’s Dust Fighter 15000 and 20000 through its dealer, Company Wrench.

Regional’s Doosan DL420 loader has produced thousands of hours of trouble-free service.

The DF 15000 and DF 20000 are two of the most costeffective midsize dust suppression machines on the market and have a number of unique features and safety benefits, according to the company. Health, Safety Benefits

Dust Fighter Offers Midsize Coverage to Demolition Sites

The Dust Fighters emit atomized water to remove dust particles from the atmosphere, bringing them safely back to the ground. This reduces short and long-term health concerns for workers and nearby residents.

Long, Steady List

Regional’s Doosan DX420 excavators load up separated scrap from the Mulberry Street site of what was once the Mount Carmel Catholic Elementary School in Worcester, Mass.

“They are powerful, they are priced right and after thousands of hours of use they’ve proven to be dependable and I get the support I need from Equipment East,” Oppenheim said.Equipment East has nearly every attachment from mechanical grapples to concrete pulverizers and more that is needed to get the job done.

In the demolition business, an excavator is only as good as the tool at the end of the stick and for years Oppenheim has been very particular about what he insists on for his Doosan excavators.Forhydraulic hammers, it’s Ramfos hammers from Equipment East.

There are certain features of the Doosan machines that The Regional Companies are really sold on, including the backup cameras and the transportability.

“The backup cameras are excellent. Great visibility, and in our business of tearing things down in tight quarters, that is very important. We really like the transportability; you don’t have to take the counterweights off to move it. Yet it’s a 100,000-pound excavator that you can move as a one-piece load, far less time consuming when you are transporting.”

The base models of the DF 15000 and DF 20000 are impressive machines in their own right. However, when paired with a trailer and generator, the mobile dust fighting capabilities are endless, according to the manufacturer. This mobile dust suppression package also features automatic oscillation and a remote control when constant change of direction is required. Best Value

Dust suppression is becoming increasingly important across the demolition industry.

This mobile dust suppression package offers one of the best values in the demolition industry, according to the company. Customers benefit from low costs, safer job sites and expert dealer support. For more information, visit www.cwmachineworx.com and www.companywrench.com.

“They have played a huge role in helping return to the Pine Tree State the remains of an important piece of Maine maritime history. Hero’s final chapters are still being written, and we are glad to be a part of it,” he added. Observer photo

Crews from Ballard Marine Construction have been working on the wreckage from research vessel Hero in Bay Center, Wash., for about a month, removing hazardous chemicals to pick it apart piece by piece. A massive crane and excavators on a barge have done most of the work.

Dukes said both men were “very instrumental and supportive” of the idea of a splash pad at Trap Pond. Venables was behind the 2010 addition of a 207-space parking lot next to the future splash pad site.

 SPLASH from page 24

But there is still no swimming. That did not sit well with a pair of since deceased western Sussex County leaders like Sen. Robert Venables of Laurel, and Ron Breeding, a Delaware Parks and Recreation Council member from Seaford, each of whom wanted to bring water recreation back to the area.

He added that some federal funding is involved in the Trap Pond project, too, and Sussex County will be asked to “chip in” monies as well.

The splash pad is set to be built on a 4.5acre area of the park, southwest of the nature center, according to the architect’s master plan. In addition, it will encompass three or four smaller splash pads, each geared toward a different age group. The total splash pad area will be about 5,000 sq. ft., a little bigger than a basketball court, with the rest of the space used for concrete decking, restrooms and other features.

Dukes has been building on their plans and pushing for state funding for the past few years, the News Journal reported.

State ConstructionAppropriatesFunds

Earlier this year, the Delaware state legislature allocated $2.5 million for permitting and construction of the splash park.

NoSwimmingAllowed,ButSome Fun to Return to Trap Pond

“I’m excited,” Dukes told the Wilmington news source. “Sometimes we do things in this state that have nothing to do with what [political] party you’re a part of. This had a lot of support from the Democratic side.”

Lyons & Hohl Site Contractors realized it was time to give its D8R a second life as it was reaching 19,000 hours.

Ciric comes to Tsurumi with 10 years of experience in distribution, warehouse and supply chain operations. She also has considerable experience in managing staff, which will add tremendous help as Tsurumi is at a time of fast growth and expansion, the company said.

“Lyons & Hohl Site Contractors were a pleasure to work with. They engaged with us throughout the process by checking in on the progress and even documented it for social media. During the process they were patient, respectful and enthusiastic, which is the kind of customer that makes doing what we do at Cleveland Brothers all worth it,” said Paul Weston, Cleveland Brothers parts & service sales representative, who worked with Lyons & Hohl Site Contractors from start to finish of the D8R rebuild. For more information, call 866/551-4602.

“She is an effective leader and has experience in working with different teams focused on achieving common results.”

“I believe this closely aligns with Tsurumi’s goals and is a strategy we can execute together,” Ciric said. “In my previous roles, service levels rose to their peak while also driving productivity across warehouse and customer service.

Cleveland Brothers Restores D8R Dozer for Lyons & Hohl Site Contractors and transmission for its machine rebuild.Calibrations were then performed to ensure all components were rebuilt properly, and to ensure a smooth and efficient end result. The engine ran at full load on the Dyno at the Indiana facility, and the other components were tested similarly at the Lancaster shop. Then all components were shipped back to Lancaster and assembled into the machine.Afteradding a fresh coat of paint and new stickers, the machine was transported back to the job site to undergo on-the-job testing and observation from a Cleveland Brothers technician. During this phase, the technician and operator reviewed the machine and performed adjustments. Once the machine was evaluated and received the stamp of approval by the customer on the job site, the D8R Cat Certified Powertrain rebuilt was considered complete and Lyons & Hohl Site Contractors were able to count on its D8R to go back to work.

Ciric developed her warehouse management and supply chain knowledge in previous roles by working closely with sales, operations, customer service, and logistics teams. Her past efforts focused on creating standard work, shortening communication flows, improving warehouse architecture, material flow, and continuous improvement of order execution to drive on-time deliveries.

Michelle Ciric

Once the D8R arrived at the Lancaster, Pa., shop, the service team conducted an extensive evaluation where more than 200 tests and inspections were performed.

“As I got to know the Tsurumi team through the interview process, I was immediately attracted to the culture and positive energy of who are now my coworkers,” Ciric said. “I felt the work environment was open to new ideas and that would allow me to use my experience to flourish in this role.”

Glenn Wieczorek, Tsurumi America’s managing director, said “Michelle will strengthen the company’s team and boost its stock availability and delivery times. She’s a great addition to our team and is already making a positive impact.

Increase Productivity Machine production can be monitored from the office by integrating Smart Construction applications, and as-built and payload data can be collected for progress tracking. With Smart Construction Retrofit you can reduce handling and reworking material which helps drive both productivity and profitability. The payload meter helps prevent overloaded trucks by promoting proper loading weights for on- and off-road vehicles, to reduce the potential for equipment damage and other risks. For more information, visit www.komatsu.com.

• Lets you monitor production from the office Once a conventional excavator is fitted with Smart Construction Retrofit, operators no longer have to set up a laser or bench every time the machine moves. The global navigation satellite system (GNSS) can determine where a machine is on the job site and what the target grade is. The need for additional labor is reduced because the technology collects and delivers information directly to the operator, so fewer people have to be working on the ground, or in an open trench.

A friction drive belt, as implied by its name, is a track that is tensioned to smooth rubber wheels much like a conveyor belt. The tractive force generated for propulsion is the friction between the drive wheels and the roller path of the track.

The drive lug applies unique rubber compound with high hardness and tensile strength. Meanwhile, its inner structure is optimized according to different drive type (friction or positive), allows long service life.

Provides high wear resistance and durability With different angles improve the stability of the track body

The positive drive track is primarily a friction drive belt (most of the time) with metal sprockets that are interlaced with rubber blocks. At the point the friction drive is overwhelmed, the sprocket catches the rubber blocks for a positive engagement without any noticeable difference. Protects the steel cable from the wear of the driving wheel

Provides high strength along the track length

QA HOW DO I MAKE A CLAIM ON A WARRANTY? We accept tracks for recycling at our New Jersey, Texas, and Washington facilities. Once you know the quantity and width of the tracks, please contact us for details and costs prior to shipping them. Keep in mind that all tracks must be strapped to a pallet and we do NOT accept non-metal core tracks or tires.

It usually doesn’t matter which side the A and B tires go on as long as they are on opposite sides! They’re often a 70:30 offset.

Standard orders deliver in 1-2 days to 97% of the continental U.S. with FREE freight on any size order! To locate the shipping company’s tracking number, simply reference your invoice or receipt. HOW FAST CAN I GET MY ORDER AND CAN I TRACK IT?

QA HOW DOES RECYCLING WORK? Most tracks are non-directional. In the event they are not, the side of the track is marked with arrows.

SUMMITANSWERS YOUR FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Yes. The heavy-duty track has 20-30% more material for 10-20% more in cost. This extra material produces in excess of a 30% increase in product life. QA IS A HEAVY-DUTY TRACK WORTH THE COST?

QA A & B TIRES: WHICH SIDE OF THE MACHINE DO THEY GO ON? In the rare event you need to submit a warranty claim, take a minimum of three pictures: the serial number, the entire product, and the failure. Email them to warranty@summittracks.us and your rep. Include the date the product was purchased, the date it was installed, and any other details you feel are pertinent to your claim.

QA SHOULD I MOUNT TRACKS IN A CERTAIN DIRECTION?

Visit summitrubbertracks.com, search by make and model, and check to see if the part is listed as fitting. You can also confirm part numbers by calling us at 888.888.1248 and talking with a product specialist. Remember, at Summit Supply, parts are guaranteed to fit your machine. HOW DO I KNOW WHICH PART GOES WITH MY MACHINE? Our rubber tracks are a blend of natural and synthetic virgin rubber. They’re manufactured with continuous steel cording and hardened steel links for durability and longevity. We do not use any recycled rubber. WHAT ARE YOUR RUBBER TRACKS MADE OF? Place your order by 3pm, by location, or by the time the shipping trucks leave.QA TO ENSURE SAME DAY SHIPPING, ORDERS SHOULD BE PLACED BY WHAT TIME? Reference page 10 for a visual.

Linda B. Customer service was excellent. The gentlemen helped me find a set of tracks for a customer. He went so far as to email me a picture so the customer could see firsthand what he was getting. Got order in a very timely manner.
