Surestrike Breaks Glacier Granite for Ambrose Brothers When contractors need to break rock, they’ll often turn to a traditional hydraulic hammer. But when the rock in question is glacial granite boulders, something more powerful is required. Ambrose Brothers Inc. had such a need at its gravel pit in Sandwich, N.H., and found a solution in the Surestrike rock breaker. Located near the White Mountain National Park, not far from Lake Winnipesaukee, the site — a natural gravel deposit of mostly granite — is approximately 200-

progress. Whitney and Son introduced us to the Surestrike model 4000 52,000-foot-pound rock breaker. This breaker is very strong. It hits with a lot of impact and can strike the rock up to 20 times per minute,” said Bob Ambrose, owner. “The Surestrike has been breaking these granite boulders nearly effortlessly. With this ready supply of boulders scattered across our pit that we were previously unable to harvest, our production numbers increased significantly. The only

continued. “We purchased the Surestrike in May 2009, so it has been operating for well over a year. Thus far we have only needed to replace the large nylon strap inside the unit every couple of hundred hours,” he added. The Surestrike operator, Joe Ballou, an employee of Ambrose Brothers, also is impressed with the Surestrike. “I have never seen anything like it. We have tried all sorts of approaches to breaking these gran-

(7,212 kg), with no seams. It is the seams, cracks or fractures that make the breaking of a rock relatively easy with the use of a hydraulic hammer, according to Ambrose Brothers. “Over the years we have tried to break these boulders with hydraulic hammers. If we were able to break them at all the amount of time it took and the amount of wear that it put on the hammer and the excavator was not worth the effort to continue trying.

The striker pin diameter is 8 in. (20 cm) and the striker pin length is 33 in. (83.8 cm). Back to Nature A natural reclamation process is taking place inside the areas of the Ambrose pit where gravel is no longer being harvested. Due to a

very high water table, there is a natural underground aquifer just below the surface in the gravel pit. The holes that have been left from excavating are quickly filled with a tremendous quantity and quality of water. As area birds have visited these ponds their droppings, which contain cranberry seeds from other regions of the state, have started a natural organic cranberry bog.

They had developed their construction trades doing construction work such as building runways in the Army during World War II. Their sons, Paul (Bud) and see SURESTRIKE page 21

Southern Maine Bridge Work Planned DISPLAY ADS/ PORTLAND, Maine (AP) The Maine Transportation Department said pedestrian, cycling and motor traffic will be affected by construction on busy Veterans Memorial Bridge, which connects Portland and South Portland off Route 295. Work began June 21. The bridge’s southbound sidewalk and shoulder are closed, affecting motorists, cyclists and pedestrians. There also will be daily southbound lane closures as necessary during off-peak traffic hours for construction activities. Traffic

during peak hours on weekdays from 4:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. will not be affected. The new bridge is scheduled to open to traffic in summer 2012, when the old Veterans Memorial Bridge will be removed. The entire project will be complete by December 2012. Project manager Jeff Folsom said that since the existing bridge will remain open during construction of the new bridge, disruption to traffic is expected to be minimal.

Portland, FEMAReach Flood Agreement PORTLAND, Maine (AP) Officials in Maine’s largest city and the Federal Emergency Management Agency have reached an agreement that keeps most of Portland Harbor from being classified as a high-risk flood zone. On June 4, FEMAreleased revised flood maps that allows new structures to be built along Commercial Street. New flood maps that FEMA had proposed would have

reclassified most all of Portland Harbor as a high-risk flood zone. It would have prohibited new construction on the waterfront and reconstruction of any structure that was more than 50 percent destroyed. The changes come after city and state officials had spent months encouraging FEMA to reconsider its flood designation for Portland harbor.

Gorilla Silverback Series Fits Wide Variety of Machine Sizes The Gorilla Hammers Silverback series hammer is designed for contractors who work with concrete, stone, granite and ledge. With an enlarged piston for maximum energy, the series has a simplistic design with only two moving parts: the piston and the shuttle valve. Less moving parts leads to less breakage and less maintenance, according to the manufacturer. The Silverback series fits on machines starting from a skid steer with a 600 ft. lb.

hammer to a 100,000 lb. excavator carrying a 14,000 ft. lb. hammer. The series includes the GHB60, 70, 75, 90, 100, 120, 135, 150, 155, 160, 165 and 180. After assembly, the hammers are field tested and evaluated, including a cycle test, a pound test, an energy output test and a structure test. Lifetime technical assistance is available.

Company Tackles Endless Variety of Massive Projects STERLING from page 1

‘Masters of the Extraordinary’ There is no end to the type of projects that Sterling has tackled. “We did a project that involved the heavy lift (mobilization) of huge gas generators (turbines) — 250 tons each — that were delivered by rail to the Charlestown (Mass.) navy dock where they were picked (by crane) by Sterling Equipment and moved to Raytheon,” said DeCrescenzo. “We moved the old Coast Guard base — from land to a barge — and transported the building itself here to our yard in Quincy,” he added. “We off-loaded and transported the jacking system for the dismantling of the Goliath crane that was located here in the old Naval Shipyard,” said DeCrescenzo. “We assisted Horizon with plowing and support of a pipeline job — providing service at both ends with tie-ins, Beverly to Weymouth, Massachusetts, quite a haul,” he added. Having played a key role in many of the area’s other most prominent large-scale, in-water and water’s edge construction projects, including Boston’s Deer Island Treatment Facility and the Central Artery Tunnel, Sterling’s team stands out as “masters of the extraordinary.” For pile driving, waterfront property rehabilitation, shoreline facilities, bulkhead and pier projects, soil stabilization jobs, beach and shoreline work and much more, Sterling can tow the line. In addition to the facility in Quincy, at the old Naval Shipyard, Sterling also has a full service/rental repair yard located in Staten Island, N.Y.

The Quincy yard has ample pier space, water depths to 30 feet, 300-ton (272 t) crane service and easy access to metropolitan Boston.

Different Kind of fleet Sterling provides unique equipment for specialty jobs and diverse projects throughout New England and the rest of the U.S. “We have specialized in marine equipment for over 20 years. Continuing with our tradition of excellence, we fill the changing needs of our customers by updating and expanding our heavy civil and marine rental divisions. We provide cranes, excavators and buckets through our Heavy Division and barges, dredges, scows and tugs from our Marine Division,” added DeCrescenzo. “Not only is our equipment in top-notch condition, but it is provided at reasonable rates and from various locations up and down the Eastern Seaboard.” Sterling’s Marine Division boasts barges from 90 to 300 ft. (27.4 to 91.4 m), both inland classed and ABS classed, tugs from 250 to 2,200 hp (186 to 1,640 kW) and scows from 1,500 to 4,000 yds. (1,371 to 3,658 m). Its Heavy Division includes cranes and heavy lifts from 65 to 350 ton (59 to 318 t) and a full line of excavators. The Quincy yard has ample pier space, water depths to 30 ft. (9 m), 300 ton (272 t) crane service and easy access to metropolitan Boston. It is also home to a full service mechanic shop — staffed by highly qualified mechanics to meet all heavy equipment needs and repairs. The East Boston location has a head wall 250 ft. (76.2 m) long, water to accommodate barges and most tugs, 300-ton crane service and easy access to metropolitan Boston. The Staten Island location also has a head wall 250 ft. long, water to accommodate barges and most tugs, 300-ton The Quincy yard’s full-service mechanic shop.

crane service and provides easy access to all New York areas, and the Hudson River and New Jersey ports. The yards are manned by mechanics, welders, fitters and operators and managed by marine personnel. The company is capable of assembling equipment of all sizes, and walking onto barges at all of its facilities. Sterling rents fork trucks and cranes in its yards on land and on the sea and offers man lifts, welding services, Bobcats loaders and trucking. Filling a Niche DeCrescenzo recognizes that Sterling’s speciality is unique, but sees the potential for growth as ongoing. “Yes, the marine equipment/construction industry is a special niche, requiring expertise and experience. But, as the world looks to its oceans for more resources, our business must expand to meet the needs of the demand.” Currently, Sterling employs approximately 15 people on staff for the rental division and daily operations. However, that number can increase significantly depending upon ongoing projects, domestically, as well as internationally.

ees work to the best of their ability to provide excellent service to the customer and to promote Sterling on all levels.” Precision and attention to detail are common threads in every Sterling Equipment job, but when the focus is on marine construction, the power and unpredictable nature of the sea also dictates an experienced, specialized approach. Winds, tides and the corrosiveness of salt water, all have an impact on construction specifications so specialized equipment and experienced personnel are a must. The equipment fleet is owned and operated by Sterling. This fleet includes the largest inventory of marine support equipment on the east coast, with each piece carefully maintained and with the constant updating and expansion of the fleet, the equipment is among the most technologically advanced available. “Our mission and philosophy at Sterling Equipment is simple,” said DeCrescenzo. “We strive to provide the best equipment and the best possible service on every project for every company.” For more information, call 1-888MRBARGE or visit www.sterlingequipment.com.

Water Offers Unique Challenges DeCrescenzo has been with the company since its inception, and is one of the primary CEG reasons for its growth and success. General manager Mark Quinn joined Sterling in 1999 and has provided leadership for more than 10 years. Along the way, Sterling purchased Coen Marine Co. in New York, incorporating them into the existing business. “Our company’s success has been established through a team effort,” said DeCrescenzo. “All employ- Sterling Equipment’s jack up barge.
