Contractor Skillfully Contends With Western Mass. Wetlands EARTHWORKS from page 1
for residents. Now the town will have enhanced access to community solar energy. Western Earthworks is a Florence, Mass.-based construction firm. The company prepared 12 acres in Lunenburg in anticipation of the new solar farm. Jack Henderson-Adams, owner of Western Earthworks, said that, as with any project, this one presented some unique challenges. “Working near wetlands in Massachusetts, we face strict guidelines and regulations,” he said. “Some of these wetland areas in our projects are fragile. We need to approach them as such.” Western Earthworks performs a variety of construction tasks. “You have to be versatile when you’re working in western Massachusetts,” Henderson-Adams said. The company is not willing to run from a challenge and has experience constructing solar farms like the one in Lunenburg. “We strive to become a leader in this field,” HendersonAdams said. “We welcome the challenge. Although these challenges can make our job difficult at times, it is 100 percent there for our future. And it’s for the wellbeing of our ecosystems that we work around.” Henderson-Adams started operating equipment at a young age. That led to selling heavy equipment for a manufacturer of processing equipment. His time being around equipment gave him added insight into how to approach his projects. Clearing, Grinding Being aware of his surroundings, Henderson-Adams and his crew set out to clear the future solar farm area of native trees. It started by building an approximately 3,000-ft. access road from the nearby street. That entailed a sensitive and careful wetland crossing. Leading the way and constructing the road was a Doosan DX170LC-5 crawler excavator. It came equipped with a dangle harvesting head attachment. “The equipment needs to be flexible,” Henderson-Adams said. “The dangle head hangs and freely swings from the

excavator’s quick coupler. It’s paired with a bucket-thumb combo, which allows us to fell and buck the wood onsite. Then we go into excavating.” Once Henderson-Adams built the road to the main area for the solar farm, he cleared trees with the excavator and dangle head. Left in stacks, the crew processed the trees with a horizontal grinder. A second Doosan excavator, a DX225LC-5, lifted and fed the knocked down trees in the grinder. The DX225LC-5 was later used to extract the tree stumps from the area, using a bucket and thumb pair. When the operator grabbed and pulled the stumps, most of the dirt fell through the thumb’s tines. This sped up the stump removal process and minimized material handling, Henderson-Adams said.
After processing the trees into mulch, another excavator loaded it into an articulated dump truck (ADT). The truck traversed the rough terrain to deliver the mulch to assigned areas. There, the employees placed the mulch for erosion control purposes.

During the job, the blasting company carefully prepared an area of the job site for the ledge rock removal. A DX350LC-5 excavator placed large mats covering the blast area. Once blasted, the DX350LC-5 operator used the see EARTHWORKS page 12

Work Begins On $23M Addition to Conn. School in Fairfield By the end of 2021, Mill Hill Elementary School in Fairfield, Conn., will be more than 30 percent larger than it is today. Construction is under way on the school’s more than $23 million expansion project, which was a hot topic in town last year when the specifics of the addition were being decided. Fairfield officials gathered Oct. 9 outside Mill Hill for a groundbreaking ceremony. “This is a long time in coming,” First Selectwoman Brenda Kupchick said to the small crowd of local leaders, as well as several students equipped with hardhats and shovels, who were on hand to assist with the groundbreaking. In 2018, a committee was created to facilitate the renovation, and the project was approved by town bodies the following year. The addition will allow the school to accommodate a capacity of 441 students. An expansion option that would have had space for a 504-student capacity also was considered. “It’s very important to us that the kids get a very modern, up-to-date school,” committee Chair Tom Quinn said at the event. Mill Hill’s 45,000-sq.-ft. building is 50 years old. The 15,000-sq.-ft. addition will
include four new classrooms, music and art space, offices and resource rooms, according to Principal Kevin Chase. The added square footage will eliminate the school’s need for portable classrooms, three of which are currently in use, he explained. The project’s heating, ventilation and air conditioning system will enhance classroom air movement and use ultraviolet light to minimize bacteria. The addition is budgeted at approximately $23.4 million, according to school district Director of Communications Andrea Clark. The Connecticut General Assembly recently approved approximately $5.7 million in previously budgeted state funding for the renovation, according to state Rep. Brian Farnen. The remainder of the costs will be funded using bonds. In addition to Kupchick, Quinn, Chase and Farnen, Superintendent Mike Cummings, Board of Education Chair Christine Vitale and many others involved in the expansion attended the groundbreaking ceremony at the school, located at 635 Mill Hill Terrace in Fairfield. Work first began on the project in early July. It is expected to be finished in November 2021.

Western Earthworks Founder’s Woods CRW Delivers First Mentality: Never Stop Learning Crane of Its Kind for Project
The DA30 proceeded to the land-clearing area to haul materials onsite. EARTHWORKS from page 4
bucket teeth to pick up the mats by a ring affixed to the mats. The operator efficiently placed the mats in a stack next to the blasted area. Next, the DX350LC-5 built a temporary path over the blasted ledge rock for the DA30 ADT to make its way over the area. The DA30 proceeded to the land-clearing area to haul materials onsite. Dirt Work Following the land clearing, HendersonAdams’ crew switched to excavating and grading mode. They performed a 5,000-yard cut and a 5,000-yard fill. Then, they dispersed 6,000 cu. yds. of topsoil onsite, aided by a DL220-5 wheel loader. The entire area also needed to be free of stone larger than 6 in. Western Earthworks precisely graded it according to the project specs. Yet another excavator — a DX235LCR5 — trenched the area for underground utilities. Western Earthworks paired it with trenching and digging buckets to match the required excavating specs. Employees completed approximately 3,000 ft. of trenching to support the solar farm utilities. Working in tandem with the DX170LC-5, the two excavators performed the trenching work. “The DX235LCR-5 excavator’s zero tail swing is great for digging around panels and racking,” Henderson-Adams said. “When we trench, this is our go-to for maneuverability and breakout force.” Henderson-Adams purchased the wheel loader and other heavy equipment at Barry Equipment, the Doosan construction equipment dealer in Webster, Mass. As part of the solar farm project, Western Earthworks poured several thousand feet of
concrete. Upon completion of the clearing, dirt work and concrete pouring, HendersonAdams and his crew hydroseeded the area. They hydroseeded approximately 550,000 sq. ft. for erosion control purposes. Always Keep Learning Henderson-Adams founded Western Earthworks on a mentality of never stop learning. “Instead of facing a task that might seem petty, we take the time to educate our workforce. We teach them about the value and importance of the task at hand,” HendersonAdams said. “We also take the time to explain the consequences of a job not done right. Being part of something much larger can help carry us all through the day to day challenges on the job site.” When challenges present themselves, Henderson-Adams takes a positive approach to the situations. “As a business owner, you have to get comfortable operating in a day-to-day environment that can be very uncomfortable at times,” he said. “We face thousands of different variables every week, and you have to keep focused on the big picture.” A recent challenge for Western Earthworks was building an air bridge to span a gas pipeline. The air bridge allowed Western Earthworks to access another three acres of land for clearing. In the five years the company has been performing construction, HendersonAdams said there have been ups and downs. “I never thought that we would be where we’re at today in such a short time,” he said. “It’s any dream I’ve ever had, I’ve accomplished those and then some. From here on out, it’s all a bonus.” For more information on Doosan products, visit DoosanEquipment.com.
The PC Construction crane operator was pleased with the crane and said that he encountered no problem getting it onto the site. He also liked the “SmartFly” feature that allows boom pins on the jib to be screwed in with an impact wrench and not from a ladder with a hammer. VERMONT from page 1
for the job at hand and was going to be made available just in time for the project. “The Link-Belt 120RT is rated for 120ton base rating and offers a 164-foot main boom, a 58-foot bi-fold fly and weighs under 95,000 pounds with the counter weight removed, which made it easily transportable in just two loads, thus making it the perfect fit for this project. This crane is in a class of its own,” Palmer said. The Link-Belt 120RT comes with a host of features, including: • Simple operation — four boom extend modes • Link-Belt Pulse 2.0 — total crane operating system with V-CALC and telematics • Counterweight consists of three 9,600lb. (4354.5 kg) counterweight for multiple transport and life scenarios • Link-Belt’s SmartFly option features four offset positions (0, 15, 30 and 45 degrees) • Boom wear pads have teflon pucks that lubricate the boom sections (greaseless boom) • Vision Package with full LED lighting package with three on-board cameras • Transports at under 95,000 lbs. (43,092 kg) • 0 to 20-degree tilting cab • Bluetooth AM/FM radio with auxiliary input • Time delayed wipers • Internal rated capacity limiter bar
• Integrated air conditioning with automatic temperature control — standard • Single or dual axis controller options • All gauges and switches are backlit for enhanced visibility in low light conditions • 24 Volt electrical system • Greaseless 4-link suspension on the rear axle with an optional hydro-gas ride system • 4 steering modes • Full-length flat deck with integrated steps and handholds After weighing several factors, Woods CRW made the decision to add the Link-Belt 120RT to the rental fleet specifically for PC Construction and the dam project, making it the first crane of its kind delivered in the northeastern United States. According to Palmer, several factors played into the decision. “Certainly, our long-term relationship with PC Construction was part of the formula,” he said. “We always want to be in the position of being a part of the problem-solving equation when it comes to working with key partners. However, down the road, we see a lot of rental opportunity for this machine. A rough-terrain crane with this amount of boom and great capacities at radius. certainly opens up a lot of new rental opportunities. “The economics of transportation and setup was another driving factor in our decision,” he added. “Until now, a 120-ton crane that can be transported in two loads has been virtually unheard of. see VERMONT page 14

After weighing several factors, Woods CRW made the decision to add the Link-Belt 120RT to the rental fleet specifically for PC Construction, making it the first crane of its kind delivered in the northeastern United States. VERMONT from page 12
Add to that assembly literally in a matter of minutes, the combined effect is savings measured in the thousands of dollars every time this crane gets moved. That translates to savings for our customers/partners every time they rent this unit. There is no doubt that as our customers see these savings and convenience there will be an increased interest in purchasing the 120RT.” The PC Construction crane operator was pleased with the crane and said getting it onto the site was great. He also liked the “SmartFly” feature that allows boom pins on the jib to be screwed in with an impact wrench and not from a ladder with a hammer. “Yesterday I was lifting a 4,300-pound concrete bucket and setting at a 110-foot load radius. Instead of using the 164-foot main boom I have been using 137-foot of main boom plus the 34-foot fly to pour concrete,” he said. “When I set the 9,200-pound drill on the crest of the dam at 110-foot radius I was able to improve capacities by reducing the boom length down to 111-foot plus the base fly by simply reducing the main boom length.
“This is the first pin and latch telescopic boom I have operated. I found it very simple to run, and I like the Pulse 2.0 total crane operating system. It even allows me to ramp up or down the sensitivity of the controls through the computer.” He said he also found the audible winch drum indicator to be very useful when working deep in the hole.
