Clinton, Tenn., is getting a new bridge. Rather than replace the existing, aging truss bridge, Mark Nagi, Tennessee Department of Transportation community relations officer of Region 1 in eastern Tennessee, said “replacement was the preferred alternative to a restoration [or] repair for the crossing,” in part because this option imposes a less significant impact on the motoring public, but also because a new bridge will enjoy a longer service life than a restored older bridge. Known officially as the Hon. William Everette Lewallen Memorial Bridge, or “the green bridge,” as locals call it, the bridge spans the Clinch

A replacement bridge will avert anxieties about the integrity of the bridge. Contract Charles Blalock and Sons Inc., based in Sevierville, Tenn., won the bid at $27,735,269.72.

NCDOT Planning to Widen I-95 in Robeson County Plans to widen Interstate 95 in Robeson County still are in motion, with all of them fully funded and construction scheduled to begin in 2022, said a spokesman of the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT). The widening project within the southeastern North Carolina county in is the development phase, with construction scheduled to start in 2022 and finish in 2026, according to the NCDOT’s website. The project is divided into four sections encompassing mile markers 13 to 21, 21 to 29, 29 to 37 and 37 to 40. “For all the above projects, we plan to widen to a total of eight travel lanes, four in each direction,” said Andrew Barksdale with the state agency. “And with the exceptions of exits 13 and 22, we will replace and rebuild the bridges and interchanges, and modernize the ramps that, in some cases, includes adding roundabouts.” But projects have experienced delays because of budget cuts related to COVID-19, he said. In April, NCDOT announced an anticipated shortfall of at least $300 million for the 2019 fiscal year ending this past June 30 because of the lack of vehicles on the roadways during Gov. Roy Cooper’s stay-at-home order. Because NCDOT’s revenue stream relies on the motor fuels and highway use taxes, and DMV fees, the budget took a big hit, which caused the department to delay many projects across the state, including at least two in Robeson County. One delay was the design-build contract for the upgrade and widening of I-95 from mile marker 21 to 37, Barksdale said. The state agency now plans to award a bid in August 2021, eight months later than planned before the COVID-19 pandemic, with project construction projected to start by 2022. Another delay was in the construction of a roundabout at N.C. 710 and Deep Branch Road in Pembroke, he said. The issuance of a contract for the $3 million project has been delayed until August 2022. The NCDOT’s I-95 widening from mile marker 13 to mile marker 21 will include the replacement of bridges and interchanges at exits 17, 19 and 20, Barksdale said. The Carthage Road interchange at Exit 19 will remain the same, but intersections at its access ramps will be controlled by roundabouts instead of stop signs. The contract should be awarded in the summer of 2021, and the project completed in 2026. “We’re excited we are able to fund these widening projects along I-95, and we are still finalizing the plans and designs for most of them,” Barksdale said. “When construction gets under way in a few years, this will be a long work zone, but we’ll continue to maintain four lanes of traffic while the improvements are being constructed.” The NCDOT does not have any funded projects to widen I-95 south of Exit 13 through the year 2029, he said. “We hope to do that in the future,” Barksdale explained, “but we are focusing on widening the parts of I-95 that need the improvements the most, due to higher traffic volumes and congestion and higher crash rates.” The widening project extends from Lumberton north to Fayetteville. Estimated costs within Robeson County amount to approximately $897.6 million. 

Before starting the work in the mountains, Riley Lecka and Wildlands made sure they had the right construction equipment for the project, like this Volvo ECR235E excavator.

Riley Lecka grew up in Banner Elk, a small resort town high in the Blue Ridge Mountains of the Tarheel State, where as a kid he loved being around the nearby rivers and streams that flow off some of the tallest peaks east of the Mississippi River.

Young Expert Leads N.C. Stream Restoration Construction By Eric Olson CEG CONTRIBUTING EDITOR

The practice of engineering stream and wetland restoration has been in use for thousands of years — ever since humans first realized they needed to keep their waterways healthy to drink and safe to travel upon. But doing so in an ecological sense using highly trained engineers and professionals is a relatively new discipline, one that has gained much more growth and prominence in the past several decades. Stream, or river, restoration is a set of activities that aim to improve the environmental health of free-flowing waterways by bringing them back to their original states in support of biodiversity, recreation, flood management, landscape development or a combination of these goals. In the Southeast, one company quickly making quite a name for itself in this line of work is Wildlands Engineering, founded in 2007 and based in Charlotte, N.C. Made up of a team of dedicated, motivated and skilled hydrologists, ecologists, geographic information system (GIS) analysts, stream designers and wetland and riparian buffer restoration experts, Wildlands has years of experience in all aspects of stream and wetland restoration, watershed planning and assessment and water quality best management practices. Years of Experience To help in its efforts, the company also has a subsidiary, Wildlands Construction, operated by a young, but very experienced environmental stream restoration expert. At 34 years old, Riley Lecka has been working in the field for more than half his life, having started waterway repairs as a teenager in his native western North Carolina, following several hurricanes and storms that roared through the region in the early 2000s. It was during this time that he met what is now senior leadership at Wildlands Engineering. These early relationships led Lecka to join forces with Wildlands in 2019 to form Wildlands Construction. He serves as the firm’s director of construction services. Lecka grew up in Banner Elk, a small resort town high in the Blue Ridge Mountains of the Tarheel State, where as a kid he loved being around the nearby rivers and streams that

flow off some of the tallest peaks east of the Mississippi River. “When I was 15 years old, I got my first itch for rivers and how they worked, but also just the creative solitude that I found working on them,” he said. “The rivers and streams have allowed me to find the delicate craft of creating features, living habitats, natural channels and enabling me to become who I am today.” Natural systems, such as streams and wetlands, can become degraded over time due to human manipulation often exacerbated by catastrophic natural events such as tropical storms. Restoring those ecosystems gives nature a boost in regaining stability and establishing a self-maintaining natural system — exactly the type of work Lecka has been trained to do. “I got into a program to start doing stream restoration and repairing small areas blown out due to a hurricane or high water,” he said. “I had learned to run equipment at a young age and realized it was a specialized industry, it was creative and I could build something that was very natural, unlike a highway. Those qualities are what made me fall in love with

this type of work.” Since then, he has been involved with many different types of projects across 47 states where he has helped install, by Lecka’s own count, about 300,000 linear ft. of stream restoration. Wildlands Offers Mitigation Services There are several different ways to go about repairing a damaged creek, stream or small river, he said, but what Wildlands does is apply its highly developed mitigation processes. In doing so, it is often helping to progress the local or regional development while offsetting impacts to the affected waterways. “We are a turnkey company that locates, say, a farmer who owns 500 acres of property that has seen a natural waterway damaged by a road project,” Lecka said. “We will buy a conservation easement on his property and do a needed stream restoration there — completely reconstruct the entire stream, including the banks, the bed surface, the slopes, grass and timber vegetation.” see STREAM page 30

Houma Navigation Canal Project...

La. Secures New Funding for $366M Flood Protection Louisiana officials have announced that construction on a $366 million flood protection project will begin using an alternative financing plan approved by the state legislature earlier this year. The Louisiana Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA) said Dec. 9 that the plan will be used for the flood-protection lock project in the Houma Navigation Canal (HNC). It will allow the agency to incur debt or issue bonds to pay for projects. The lock will play a critical role in Terrebonne Parish’s hurricane protection system. The project also aims to shield inland communities from storm surges. CRPA officials said the first phase of the construction will begin next year. CPRA is utilizing recent legislative authority via Act 89 of the 2020 Regular Legislative Session, giving the department the authority to finance coastal restoration projects by entering debt obligations within the regulatory and oversight process of the State Bond Commission set out in existing law. The HNC Project is currently proposed to be funded with RESTORE Bucket 3, and CPRA is finalizing the grant process. The alternative financing plan is intended to provide gap financing during the HNC Phase 2 construction period and until CPRA receives the annual RESTORE Bucket 3 payments. The Authority anticipates starting the competitive process for securing capital market financing a few months prior to

the bid of Phase 2. “We are aggressively finding ways through funding and delivery methods to advance more projects to implementation as quickly as possible,” said CPRA Chairman Chip Kline. “HNC is a critically important hurricane protection and ecosystem restoration structure, and we are thrilled to have identified a way to expedite its construction. We are leaving no stone unturned in order to make our Coastal Master Plan a reality.” CPRA’s traditional approach involved waiting until the entirety of allocated funds was available before moving projects to construction. “As a result of this new legislation, we will be able to advance construction of this important project by about four years,” said CPRA Executive Director Bren Haase. “This is a truly integrated project in that it provides both ecosystem restoration and hurricane protection benefit for Louisiana’s coastal citizens.” The HNC Lock Complex Project is contained in the Louisiana Coastal Master Plan and 2021 Annual Plan (Project TE-113) as a hydrologic restoration project and is needed to reduce saltwater intrusion and distribute fresh water within the Terrebonne Basin, an area which is experiencing one of the highest rates of land loss in coastal Louisiana. The restoration will help limit the intrusion of salt water into freshwater marsh systems allowing for the maintenance of thousands of acres of wetlands which serve as

critical wildlife habitat and nurseries for fisheries. Additionally, HNC also will provide crucial flood protection by blocking storm surge as a key component of the Morganza to the Gulf Hurricane Protection Project. “The saltwater intrusion and freshwater diversion aspects of the HNC Lock System are huge environmental wins for Terrebonne Parish that will forever positively impact the ecosystem,” said Terrebonne Parish President Gordy Dove. “This is also a major economic win in that it will improve the nonstop navigation of the marine industry which is the economic backbone of Terrebonne.” In 2013, the Terrebonne Levee & Conservation District (TLCD) constructed a $50 million barge floodgate known as the HNC “Bubba Dove” Floodgate with combined state and local funds. The new lock project will incorporate the existing floodgate as part of the complex. “The HNC Lock Complex is the main anchor and most important structure of the entire 98-mile Morganza to the Gulf Hurricane Risk Reduction Project,” said Reggie Dupre, executive director of TLCD. “In addition to the environmental benefits of the lock complex, we will now be able to better provide mariners with safe harbor when we are facing tropical weather threats.” CPRA anticipates beginning Phase 1 in 2021, while Phase 2, the construction portion of the project, is expected to begin in 2022. 

Equipment Manufacturers Pledge to Work With New Admin. Construction industry associations are beginning to weigh in following the inauguration of President Joseph R. Biden Jr. as the 46th President of the United States on Jan. 20, 2021. Association of Equipment Manufacturers Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) president Dennis Slater congratulated President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris on their inauguration and pledged that equipment manufacturers will actively support the efforts of the new Administration to confront our nation’s many challenges, chief among them, ending the pandemic and ensuring a safe and rapid economic recovery: “On behalf of the equipment manufacturing industry, we congratulate President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris and express our sincere commitment in working with them to help unite our country after this historic election. “President Biden has pledged to revitalize U.S. manufacturing by building back better, and we look forward to working with him to fulfil that promise. Equipment manufacturers believe the best way to build a bridge

toward economic recovery is by putting policies ahead of politics and working together to lift everyone up and leave no one behind. “President Biden has laid out a positive and optimistic vision for our country, and we look forward to working with him and his Administration to mobilize the talent, grit and innovation of the American people to bring about a better, stronger and more prosperous America.” Associated Equipment Distributors Brian P. McGuire, president and CEO of Associated Equipment Distributors, issued the following statement: “AED and its members are eager to work with the Biden-Harris administration to put the United States on track for long-term economic growth that creates well-paying jobs and prosperity for all Americans. “The United States faces enormous challenges as the country continues to deal with a pandemic, economic uncertainty, and unrest, both at home and abroad. The obstacles may seem insurmountable, but I’m confident that with strong, bipartisan leadership we will emerge as a stronger nation.

“I encourage President Biden to find areas that unite Democrats and Republicans, such as providing long-overdue investments in our nation’s crumbling infrastructure and developing the next generation of skilled workers. The future prosperity of the United States hangs in the balance and equipment distributors are ready to play a vital role to ensure a robust and sustained recovery.” American Concrete Pavement Association Following the approval of a resolution pledging support and formally congratulating President Joseph R. Biden and VicePresident Kamala D. Harris, the American Concrete Pavement Association is expressing optimism the new Administration and the 117th Congress will deliver robust and well-funded legislation to invest in our nation’s surface transportation infrastructure. “We are optimistic about President Biden’s vision for infrastructure investment,” said 2021 ACPA Board Chair David Howard (of Koss Construction Co.). “While we appreciate the scope of past highway and transit bills, the perspective shared by many people in both the public and private sectors is that investment levels for more than 20

years have fallen critically short of the amounts needed to meet the current and future needs.” He expressed optimism in the President and Congress moving forward cohesively and quickly to enact legislation that will provide much-needed funding. “We support the proposed $2 trillion ‘Build Back Better’ clean energy and infrastructure campaign proposal and are encouraged by both the jobs creation and infrastructure investment aspects of the proposal. “With the passage of HR2 in the House last year, the 117th Congress has a considerable advantage in advancing legislation and gaining bipartisan support,” he said, adding, “There will necessarily be additions and refinements to the plan, but we are encouraged that the House-passed bill sets a positive course toward the President’s stated goals. “ACPA is ready and eager to provide the Administration with the concrete pavement industry’s expertise and advice regarding the development and implementation of highway infrastructure investment,” Howard said. 

Kenny: The Oldest Dozer Operator How His Love of Dozers Led to His Logging More Than 110,000 Lifetime Hours As a young boy, Kenny Nichols was no stranger to hard work. His dad passed away in 1934, when Nichols was four years old, leaving the youngster, his mother and older siblings to eke out a living from the land during the Great Depression. It meant long days and back-breaking work with few rewards. Beginning of Caterpillar Love Affair One particular day, some 84 years ago, seven-year-old Nichols was on an errand, walking a county dirt road in rural Missouri, when a man driving a Caterpillar Ten crawler came down the way. “The county had the machine. They were bringing it up the road from Cedar Grove to work on some hills near the Palmer Banks [near Jadwin, Mo.]. I was just a kid walking along the road. The driver stopped to give me a ride,” Nichols said. “And he let me drive it about a half a mile.” That brief encounter began Nichols’s lifelong love for Cat dozers.

said. So, Nichols began using his own dozer and working for himself. Through the years, he has worked on every type of job imaginable. From clearing land for buildings and roads, to moving dirt for stock ponds and lakes — you name it, and he has probably done it using a Cat dozer. Over the years, he’s owned only Cat machines and currently owns a D6C, a D6D and a Cat backhoe. When asked why he chooses

Cat machines, Nichols replied, “I wouldn’t have anything else. If you’re going to use heavy equipment, just get Cat — they’re dependable. And I think they’re prettier, myself. “I’ve dug so many new house basements around Salem, Missouri, — more than were dug with backhoes. And lakes — big lakes! It would take me a lot of time to tell you about all the jobs I’ve worked on,” he said.

Just Like They Took Care of Us Throughout the years, “Why quit something you like doing,” Kenny the Nichols family fared Nichols said. well, supported by Nichols’s extraordinary operator skills and passion for operating a dozer. But it’s the Nichols family’s love for each other and their Cat dozers that makes the story special.

UMA Geotechnical Supports South Carolina Manufacturer’s Expansion Specialty subcontractors like UMA Geotechnical Construction Inc. (UMA) rarely get the credit, but the work they do often lays the foundation for stimulating the global supply chain. The North Carolina-based contractor worked two shifts to install more than 300 micropiles to support a fabrication facility addition for a manufacturer in Goose Creek, S.C. Unique Bidding Process UMA’s Team overcame the odds by procuring the project through a high-pressure process called the Japanese Reverse Auction. While common overseas, this was new territory for a geotechnical contractor serving the Mid-Atlantic United States. The first step was for all interested contractors to email a proposal to the owner. The owner then posted the highest bid on the internet for all to see. The Japanese Auction leaves bidders in the blind, so UMA’s Team had no information on the other bidders. Every minute, the bid would drop by $10,000, and bidders would be asked if they were willing to accept that number. Once they confirmed, the timer would restart before the price was lowered again. This process was repeated until the lowest possible bid was achieved. UMA had to determine how low it was willing to go. “Our approach was to predetermine our rock bottom number,” said UMA President Brian DeSpain. “After finding out the bidding process, we went back to our estimate sheet and

UMA secured two of the three phases of the project in November 2019, including an addition to the fabrication building (Building F) and an expansion to accommodate the massive turntables used to coil high-voltage cables (Building J).

we creatively found the most cost-effective and productive route to install the piles.” Installing Micropiles in Two Phases UMA ended up securing two of the three phases of the addition in November 2019, including an addition to the fabrication building (Building F) and an expansion to accommodate the massive turntables used by the manufacturing facility (Building J). Among the complexities of the project was the sheer volume of micropiles to be installed — 304 to be exact. The first phase, Building F, contained 290 piles, and Building J contained 14. Team UMA hit the site during Christmas of 2019. The first test pile was installed in late December and load tested in January. Two load tests were conducted at 480 kips. UMA designed piles to achieve loads of 240 kips for Building J, and 200 and 240 kips in Building F. UMA started production shortly thereafter, installing (or drilling) 20-plus piles per day and working two shifts. The job was finished before the February deadline. Once the micropiles in Building F were completed, UMA left for a month before returning to finish up the 14 piles in Building J. True Design-Build UMA was initially supplied with a geotechnical report from Charleston, S.C.-based Terracon. Although it was thorough, geotechnical borings are only guaranteed accurate at the boring. The distance between borings can vary and so can the soil characteristics. “They basically said, here’s the geotechnical report and the spacing we want to try to utilize,” said DeSpain. “Our job was to come up with the diameter, depth, and means and methods used to install the piles. UMA worked with general contractor Fessler & Bowman Inc. and the owner’s engineer to select a design-build deep foundation system that would meet their needs. The selection was a 7-inch Outside Diameter (O.D.) casing. The casing was installed the full length of the micropile for structural capacity, and the bond zone was pressure grouted through the casing. A 14 by 14 by 2 in. plate was attached to the top of each pile with a non-structural bar and nut and embedded in the structural concrete slab. Team UMA laid out the micropiles 20 feet apart and in a perfectly aligned grid pattern. Fessler & Bowman followed up by pouring a multi-layer reinforcement slab for the foundation. “With a caisson or a drilled pier, you would assume an end bearing pressure at the bottom and then you could also use frictional strength between the grout and the ground,” said DeSpain. “With micropiles, the design standard for end bearing capacity is zero, so you rely strictly on the friction between the grout and the ground.” UMA’s design-build skills were unexpectedly tested when its work was more than half-way completed. The contractor was informed that an additional four columns in the middle of the building would require support. “They had us add four micropiles for each of the four columns,” DeSpain said. “We continued construction, did a see MICROPILES page 37

UMA installed 304 micropiles during two phases; 290 were done in Building F (pictured), and 14 were completed in Building J.

Drilling in proximity to the existing structure was required for Building F

President Joe Biden signaled changes in climate and energy policies when he signed a slew of executive orders on his first day in office. Though some consider this a positive move toward reducing global warming and carbon footprint, others see it as adversely affecting the construction sector and a threat to the economy, which President Biden campaigned to support. The American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) noted three major executive orders (EOs) that will affect the construction industry. Biden signed a “regulatory freeze,” halting agency activity until all appointees are installed. “In practical terms, this action stops agencies from moving forward on any proposed rules, which have not yet been finalized,” said Nick Goldstein, ARTBA vice president of regulatory and legal issues. “This includes the USDOT implementation of the updated National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) modernization, which ARTBA supported.” Goldstein also noted Biden revoked the federal permit for the Keystone XL pipeline. Shutting the Pipeline The 1,700-mi. Keystone pipeline has been on-again, offagain, depending on which administration held United States office. A massive project, it would carry roughly 800,000 barrels of oil a day from Alberta, Canada, to the Texas Gulf Coast. In 2013-14, the project was criticized by Native Americans, environmentalists and ranchers. In 2015, President Barack Obama shut down the northern leg of the project after outcry from the public. President Donald Trump signed an executive order in 2017 approving permits for the northern end of the project. The pipeline would pass through Montana, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma. Energy service provider TC Energy decided to terminate more than 1,000 construction jobs as a result of the permit revocation.

“The project’s suspension will result in several job cuts even when it intended to use renewable energy sources to power the pipeline system,” the company said in announcing its displeasure with Biden’s action. “Earlier, the company announced its plan to wipe out more than three million tons of CO2 equivalent,” said the company. The plan was an attempt to convince Biden that Keystone XL fits into his ‘Build Back Better’ agenda, according to TC Energy. Industry Reaction “ARTBA and industry allies have supported the project, citing its potential for creating significant economic benefits, including much-needed jobs in the transportation construction sector,” said Goldstein. Brian Turmail of the AGC was not so optimistic about Biden’s swift actions. He said his association hopes the actions are not part of a broader plan. “It’s not a positive sign that someone who claims to be a union president killed 1,000 union jobs when he came into office,” said Turmail, vice president, public affairs of the association. “We hope this was done to placate the radical wing of the democrats and not a foreshadowing of a broader infrastructure agenda by the president.” Turmail said the moves give association members pause for concern. “We wonder whether this president is focused on rebuilding

infrastructure or placating environmental activists.” The irony, he said, is the Keystone revocation won’t stop the shipment of fossil fuels but will instead create more environmentally damaging methods of moving the oil. It will require the oil to be moved via rail or truck, requiring “far more energy to move than by pipeline.” The association’s position is the revocation “doesn’t make a lot of sense” environmentally, Turmail added. “From an infrastructure point of view, it’s troubling.” And from an economic point of view, “it’s not a direction our economy should be heading right now,” he added. Turmail did say it’s still too early to forecast long-term effects of the revocation, especially “when one project has such an effect on a broader market.” But, he added, AGC members expect the majority of construction will contract in 2021, and this doesn’t help. “It’s an already-difficult economic climate. We don’t need difficult and unfriendly political environment as well,” he added. The Associated Equipment Distributors (AED) is just as concerned by President Biden’s actions. Daniel Fisher, vice president, government affairs of AED, said association members have provided “a lot” of equipment in the United States and Canada for the project. They’ll be hit hard by the Keystone Pipeline permit’s revoca-

tion, he said. Revoking the permit “effectively kills continuation of construction in the U.S. and Canada, unless President Biden decides to reverse his actions at some point.” In the very near future and longterm, it will likely mean contractors working on the pipeline will no longer have need for equipment, said Fisher. That means purchase orders and rental agreements for equipment out there will be cancelled or delayed. “We also wonder how this could impact future large pipeline projects,” he said. Fisher noted that this project had been reviewed for 10 years by previous administrations. “It represents virtually no environmental impact.” The pipeline construction work would be performed by union workers and run entirely on renewable energy, he said. “It’s one of the more environmentally-friendly pipeline projects, so I doubt the future of any larger pipeline project as long as we have this current administration for the next four years or so,” Fisher added. He said AED as a whole is hopeful the administration will reconsider its stand on these issues, for the sake of the construction industry and the economy. “We hear a lot of buzz” in the industry, he said, noting there was been broad support for the Keystone project. “We’re in shock, but we’re holding out hope the Biden administra-

tion will take another look at its climate and energy policies,” said Fisher. Other Biden Orders Biden also repealed multiple Trump administration deregulation executive orders. One EO he repealed was the One Federal Decision, shortening national EPA reviews to two years. He also repealed the two-forone EO mandating that two rules be repealed for every one that is enacted, said Goldstein. “Additionally, the EOs will start a review of dozens of federal regulations enacted by the Trump administration, including many supported by ARTBA,” he said. Beyond NEPA modernization, ARTBA backed the Navigable Waters Protection Rule, which replaced the Waters of the United States rule. The association also supported reforms to the Endangered Species Act and recent decisions to retain current Clean Air Act standards. “While the results of this review are unknown, any changes made to these rules are subject to the public comment process,” said Goldstein. “The EOs also show how President Biden will incorporate his priorities into future rulemakings by asking agencies to ‘identify ways the regulatory process can promote public health and safety, economic growth, social welfare, racial justice, environmental stewardship, human dignity, equity and the interests of future generations.’” For transportation projects, “this could mean an increased focus on studying how proposed projects impact minority and other underserved communities.” Goldstein noted that the Biden administration also issued an EO directing OSHA to evaluate whether an emergency temporary standard (ETS) covering all employees and all industries is necessary to combat COVID-19. “ARTBA will evaluate all proposals from the new administration on their merits,” Goldstein said. The association will also “continue to push for a regulatory environment that promotes efficient, safe and cost-effective delivery of transportation improvement projects,” he added.  CEG

Charles Blalock and Sons Builds Eight New Structures Contractors are using: a Manitowoc M250 3501; a Case foundation drill; a Link-Belt HC-238A track crane; a Mantis track crane 14010; a Link-Belt 118 track crane; and an American HC-80 crane.

Blalock began excavating for footings for the new bridge in late 2018. The foundation pilings — steel beams — are driven down 20 to 30 ft. until they reach bedrock. The steel beam pilings are wrapped with rebar; concrete forms were placed; and concrete was poured to create the abutment. BRIDGE from page 1

plant. When his sons joined the company in the 1960s-70s, they added road construction and expanded to include an asphalt division, concrete structures division and a utilities division. The different companies under the Blalock banner began selling ready-mix concrete and concrete block, and building materials and hardware to local contractors. Today, Blalock is a leader in commercial and residential site prep from initial clearing and grading to final paving. In addition to site excavation and utility work, it does highway and bridge construction, asphalt paving, concrete and precast construction and more. Often winning TDOT bids, it completed the largest highway contract ever awarded in Tennessee, SmartFix40. Significant sub-contractors on the job include Case Foundation Company, a foundation specialist; Rogers Group Inc., the largest privately-owned construction aggregate in the United States; Progression Electric LLC, an electrical contractor; Planet Inc., a painting company that offers deck refinishing, interior plastering and wood staining; and Pipeline Construction, a directional drilling company.

After clearing right of way of brush, Blalock began excavating for footings for the new bridge in late 2018. The foundation pilings — steel beams — are driven down 20-30 ft. until they reach bedrock. The steel beam pilings are wrapped with rebar; concrete forms were placed; and concrete was poured to create the abutment. It takes about one week to drill each column hole, build the rebar steel cage insert and pour the concrete. A largediameter steel casing will sit on a shoulder 2.5 ft. into the bedrock. A drill bit turns inside the steel casing to create a hole 9 ft. wide by 25 ft. deep into bedrock. The steel rebar cage will be inserted and concrete poured to create the column, which is tested to ensure it meets TDOT specifications. Once testing is done, crews will extend the columns upward by building forms and connecting steel reinforcement. Pier 1 is on dry land and includes three 6-ft.-diameter columns of steel-reinforced concrete. Columns sit on individual footings; each footing has 42 steel beams (pilings spaced 3 ft. apart) driven into bedrock.

Work Detail “This project includes the grading and drainage of SR-9 and Riverside Drive,” Nagi said. It also involves water, gas and sewer utility relocations; replacement of the existing bridge over the Clinch River with a new bridge; and demolition of the existing structure. The new bridge will consist of seven spans, for a total length of 1,136 ft. Nagi said, “Six of the seven spans will be 66-inch steel girders, and the remaining span will utilize pre-stressed concrete beams.” In total, eight structures are being built: an abutment at each end, with six piers between them. Digging It The project started in September 2018 after a brief delay while TDOT struggled to obtain the necessary permits from the Tennessee Valley Authority and the Coast Guard that would allow the work to begin. Nagi said the project is expected to be completed late fall 2021. The 36-month project will see the Lewallen Bridge’s replacement constructed right next to it for minimal interruption of traffic, according to The Oak Ridger.

Contractors are using: a Manitowoc M250 3501; a Case foundation drill; a Link-Belt HC-238A track crane; a Mantis track crane 14010; a Link-Belt 118 track crane; and an American HC-80 crane.

Piers 2 and 3 each have one underwater column located in the river inlet beside the concrete walking trail. Piers 4 and 5 are entirely in the river, each supported by twin underwater support columns. Bridge Foundation The bridge is designed with a composite concrete deck, Nagi continued. “The bridge foundation utilizes spread footings, pile supported foundations and 6.5-foot and 9.5-foot drilled shafts.” Rebar-reinforced concrete columns are placed on top of the foundation pilings. A concrete cap is then poured across the exposed tops of the steel beam pilings to bear the weight of the steel girder beams. Each span between piers will have nine girder beams that sit on top of the structures. The longest span is 190 ft. and stretches over the river channel between piers 4 and 5, which will rest on twin columns in the water. According to TDOT, installation is technical and labor-intensive, requiring several months to complete. The first girder beam installed weighed 52,000 lbs. The project requires 72 of them. Once all the girder beams have been placed, crews will begin installing bridge decking and reinforcement steel across them in preparation for concrete pours. A sub-contractor will place a grid system of epoxy-coated steel rebar (weighing 1.5 million lbs.) across the girder beams and deck pans. Galvanized steel deck pans on the girder beams and building overhangs that accommodate 5-ft. sidewalks on both sides serve as permanent concrete forms for a 9-in.-thick concrete slab to be poured over the deck pans. An engineered sequence of concrete pours will create the deck slab, which will become the driving surface. Approximately 3,400 cu. yds. of concrete will be pumped to create it. The bridge deck length is 1,136 ft. long. Thousands of shear bolts will be welded to the tops of the girder beams to prevent the concrete deck slab from sliding. Placed 6 in. apart, they will serve as dowel pins that tie the concrete deck slab to the support beams. “The construction of the project will require roughly 1,200 tons of steel bar reinforcement; 3,300 cubic yards of Class A concrete; 3,400 cubic yards of Class DS concrete; 1,200 cubic yards of SCC concrete; 5,900 linear feet of 12inch piles; 3,500 linear feet of 10-inch piles; 140 linear feet see BRIDGE page 68

Volvo Equipment Instrumental On Wilkes County Project STREAM from page 8

In that scenario, Wildlands obtains wetland or stream mitigation credits used to offset ecological losses in the same wetlands due to urban and suburban development. The company can then sell the credits to groups that need to impact streams to build their projects, such as a state transportation department or commercial developer, to satisfy their environmental permit needs prior to impacting wetlands or streams. “Any time there is an action, like building an interstate through a wetland or someone disturbing the flow of a stream, we are the reaction,” Lecka said, adding, “but the reason why we restore streams is to prevent sediment loss from eroding streambanks and restore habitat for the fish and bugs that live in them.”

shed,” Lecka said. The contract’s challenges, he said, are many: Staying on schedule because of the project’s large size, the different types of soil on site that are not always ideal for growing grass, the ever-present wet ground, working with high, steep stream sections within the wooded areas and finding the right timber that Wildlands can harvest for reuse in the stream. His crews’ efforts were tested severely this past fall following a hurricane that plowed through the western part of the state, dumping almost six inches of rain on the project in about five hours. The flooding that resulted swamped Lecka’s project, causing a great deal of damage. “The challenge after that was to stay on task, stay on schedule and stay on budget,” he said. “It also created more equipment wear and tear, longer hours of use, issues with servicing, and planning/scheduling for any kind of breakdown.” Ascendum Provides Aid, Comfort But with Ascendum Machinery keeping watch over Wildlands Engineering’s Volvo equipment on the project, Lecka knew that everything would turn out right.

Tree Service Finds Stability With Black Splitter S2 800 Out on the Limb Tree Service LLC has built up a large contingent of trucks and equipment over its 21 years in business, but the acquisition of a Black Splitter S2 800 cone splitter from Ransome Attachments in 2018 has brought a new level of versatility to this tree service operation. The company provides a range of services including tree removal, pruning, chipping, and stump grinding to residential, commercial, and government customers within a 35-mi. radius of its Seymour, Conn., headquarters. “We have land clearing guys with shears, but we didn’t have an excavator large enough to bust up big wood,” Owner Adam Lieder said. “We looked at other avenues that would allow us to process some of our bigger wood into more manageable pieces.” The landscaper found the Black Splitter through an internet search. After making a positive connection with owner Eric Ransome, the company was convinced that the S2 800 was the right fit for its machine and operation. Out on the Limb’s previous process needed improvement, according to Lieder. “We were basically cutting it down to firewood size and putting it on the log splitter.” The S2 800 is designed to fit all sizes of compact excavators, but Out on the Limb has it mounted on a Bobcat E45 mini excavator. A quick coupler allows for a quick switch between machines as needed. The Black Splitter can usually be found processing wood in the company’s yard, or in tow on a trailer to a local work site. Most onsite removals and cuts are done with a rotating grapple, but Out on the Limb often uses the Black Splitter to breakdown larger, gnarlier trees and stumps. Seymour and surrounding towns are heavily wooded with an abundance of mature trees so Out on the Limb often takes down and disposes of large, off-size timber. Logs under 8 ft. cannot be sold, and yet they’re also too large to dispose of easily. “With the Black Splitter, we can take these large, knotty sections, bust them down into a manageable size, chip it, and sell the chips,” he said. “We can also break down six-footers into four sections and drop it off at someone’s house for a pack of cheap firewood.” The S2 800 is in its glory back at the yard when processing and feeding wood to a Morbark 20/36 whole tree drum chipper. The crew usually sorts garbage wood and logs into separate piles and begins breaking The Black Splitter S2 800 cone splitter Out on the Limb Tree them down when the mound gets too large. Service acquired from Ransome Attachments in 2018 has “When we’re in processing mode, we throw the brought a new level of versatility to its tree service operation. Black Splitter on and hammer down,” said Lieder.

The increased productivity is noticeable but the greater value for Out on the Limb is in being able to turn once unusable materials into a new revenue stream. “We’re taking byproducts that we couldn’t do anything with and turning them into a usable product,” Lieder said. Out on the Limb re-grinds wood chips and dyes them to make mulch. The finished product is sold to commercial customers and given to homeowners for free because there is no demand for the chips with the abundance of trees in this part of Connecticut. “These chips are usable product to somebody somewhere, and they’re easy to get rid of because homeowners like them,” he said. “Now I can keep Joe Smith happy because he gets a free load of wood chips and I don’t have to look at this big, gnarly piece of pine that I have no use for.” Lieder said his crews deal with virtually every type of northeastern tree including Pine, Oak, Ash, Hickory, Maple, Spruce and Hemlock. Out on the Limb has not encountered any wood that the Black Splitter could not handle, but they find Hickory to be the most challenging because of its stringiness. In these cases, the excavator operator simply engages the spinning motion of the S2 800 and sweeps between the log sections to break the strands. Out on the Limb’s use of the Black Splitter is sporadic. “We don’t run the S2 800 every day, but a few weeks ago we ran it for a week straight,” Lieder said. “I couldn’t even tell you how many hundreds of yards of wood chips we produced.” The S2 800 also helps with a trend among homeowners that’s resulting in increased processing for Out on the Limb. Homeowners in decades past often asked for firewood to be left on site, as opposed to today’s homeowners that want everything hauled away. This means less time in the field breaking down wood and cleaning up sawdust and more time hauling and processing it. “It’s cheaper for us to just haul it offsite and try to figure out something later than it is to sit there and cut up firewood and sawdust in someone’s yard,” Lieder said. “It’s a win-win because I don’t have to clean up sawdust in the yard and we’re making a bad byproduct into good byproduct, which is obviously the number one goal.” Lieder sees the possibility of buying a larger excavator and Black Splitter model in the future. “If we keep on growing, we’ll probably add another bigger Black Splitter and keep on doing what we’re doing,” he said. “It seems to be working.” 

Hultdins Introduces Fixed Mount MG Grapple Saws Hultdins’s fixed mount MG grapple saws are available in three sizes for excavators from 6 to 27.5 ton (5.5 to 25 t) capacity. This new grapple saw configuration does not require an extra dedicated auxiliary circuit for the saw function as it is operated off the grapple close circuit. The only hydraulic requirements are the standard auxiliary “hammer” circuit and a low flow rotation circuit. The saw unit is based on the SuperSaw 555S, which is popular on Hultdins SG forestry grapples and many other manufacturers of grapple saws, according to the company. The saw unit features automatic chain tensioning, proportional chain lubrication, and fast and easy replacement of the saw bar or chain. The MG grapples are based on the same design as the SG SuperGrip log grapples. MG grapples are equipped with the Indexator XR rotator, which offers a compact low-profile design with extremely high load capacities. Boom adapters are available to match any machine hydraulic coupler or direct mount. For more information, visit www.hultdins.com. 

Telestick Extends Reach of Gradual Telescoping Boom Gradall extends the productivity of Series V excavators with the Telestick attachment, allowing for a boom reach to as much as 50 ft. Equipped with ditching, grading and dredging buckets as well as a grapple, the Telestick is ideal for cleaning canals, grading and shaping the edges of drainage ditches, cleaning out culverts and removing debris after severe storms and flooding. “The Telestick is very popular with irrigation districts and water departments, particularly in the southwest where directing and controlling water flow is so important,” said Mike Popovich, vice president of Gradall excavator products. “In Texas, they’ve found that Telestick versatility comes in handy to reach out and clean up debris that’s been pushed up against bridge pillars in rivers.” Telesticks are popular attachments for XL 5100V and XL 4100V model excavators with highway speed undercarriages, as well as XL 5200V models on crawler undercarriages designed to operate on very rough terrain. With a Telestick, XL 5000V Series machines are able to reach out 50 ft., while XL 4000V Series models have a 45-ft. reach. The Gradall-engineered high-pressure, load-sensing hydraulic system efficiently powers the entire boom movement as it reaches across waterways, deep into ponds and canals, and tilts 220 degrees to productively address slopes and even reach under bridges and in tunnels, according to the manufacturer. The Telestick can typically be installed in less than 30 minutes using the standard boom-end bucket adapter and

UMA Utilizes Specialty Crawler Drilling Rigs on Project

Drilling Through Cooper Marl After penetrating a layer of black organic, silty sand, UMA was drilling through Cooper Marl, which is a soil formation prevalent in South Carolina’s Lowcountry Region along the coast. The contractor is no stranger to drilling in this material. “Seashells, organic matter and sand layered on top of each other, and compacted more and more over millions of years, and formed this really dense sand layer that is commonly referred to as Cooper Marl,” explained DeSpain. “It’s interesting when you drill in it because this mixture of material from millions of years ago comes up out of the ground.” The bond zone for the micropiles fell within the Cooper Marl layer. UMA drilled the piles to an average depth of 70 feet, although it fluctuated because the layer was 50 feet down on one side of the site and 25 feet in the other section. The Cooper Marl acts like a degradated rock during drilling so the hole will stay open. The wet sandy overburden layer above; however, collapses into the hole. This required UMA to tap OCI Division of Global Drilling Supply in

Brookville, Pa. to make a special drill bit it has used several times since 2011. OCI also supplied all casing for the project. UMA worked closely with OCI on the size of the bit. The length that the cutting teeth projected from the casing was critical to ensure that the outside diameter of the bit was larger than that of the casing. This dimension was critical to ensure that drill cuttings returned to the surface effectively; the casing did not get locked into the sand by friction; and the grout could fully encapsulate the casing. “When you drill below the water table, the pressure required to overcome the hydrostatic head pressure increases by approximately one atmosphere every 33 feet,” DeSpain said. “You want to be able to push fluid out of the bit, but you don’t want fluid or cuttings to come back in the bit. This bit only lets the water go out, which allows us to flush the cuttings from around the outside of the pipe back up to the surface.” Fessler & Bowman had covered the entire site with a mud mat before UMA fired up the drilling rig. This was basically a concrete slab to serve as a stable working platform on this muddy site. The sediment removed by the drilling rig accumulated on the mat as the drill cuttings were expelled from the hole. UMA deployed a skid steer to plow that waste off the mat and into a pile where Fessler & Bowman allowed it to dry out before removing it from the site. UMA’s team worked from the inside to the outside of these U-shaped parcels. “Once we got about halfway done, Fessler & Bowman came in and blocked off half of it the parcel and started tying all the rebar cages,” DeSpain said. “They had already poured the first half of the concrete at about the same time we finished drilling the last pile.” When all was said and done, UMA had completed 304 micropiles by the February 2019 deadline. It took Team UMA working a double shift, deploying its fleet of specialty foundation equipment, and its past success working with the unique Cooper Marl Formation. The result was a strong foundation that would allow this global manufacturer to increase production and further stimulate the economy. “The key to this job was installing a lot of micropiles at a high production rate,” DeSpain said. “The owner had a really strict timetable and Team UMA delivered.” 

An excavator with EZ Spot UR attachment fed casing sections to the Casagrande C7 during micropile installation.

UMA utilized a Penndrill cement silo to reduce labor and increase production. Positioning it above the grout plant allowed cement to be loaded directly from truck to silo without breaking open and dumping each bag.

design and got it approved, and then implemented the new design while we were on-site without delay.” Specialty Drilling Equipment UMA used one if its specialty Casagrande C7 XP-2 crawler drilling rigs for all micropile drilling. It worked in tandem with an excavator with an EZ Spot UR attachment, which fed casing sections to the rig. A positive displacement pump supplied water to the C7 during drilling to flush the casing sections down to depth. The benefit of such a pump was that it supplied a constant flow and pressure of fluid throughout the process. UMA’s goal was to use the longest sections of steel possible. The C7 is equipped with a 30-ft. stroke so the team was able to install a 30-ft. section for the first piece, followed by two 25-ft. sections. UMA utilized a Penndrill cement silo to reduce labor and increase production. Positioning it above the grout plant allowed cement to be loaded directly from truck to silo without breaking open and dumping each bag.

UMA worked two shifts to install more than 300 micropiles to support a fabrication facility addition for a global manufacturer in Goose Creek, S.C.

UMA used its specialty Casagrande C7 XP-2 crawler drilling rig to drill all micropiles to 70 ft. through a formation called the Cooper Marl.

The first test pile was installed in late December and load tested in January. Two load tests were conducted at 480 kips.

Adamo Unlocks New Efficiencies With Sennebogen Fleet Richard Adamo and his team feel a little irked that they did not bring purpose-built material handlers into their demolition business sooner than they did. Adamo is the third-generation president of Detroit-based Adamo Group, which has been a leader in the demolition industry for more than 50 years, taking on large decommissioning projects throughout the United States and Canada. But he still shakes his head ruefully at the days before he began building his fleet of Sennebogen material handlers to extract scrap metal from demolition debris and to load the material into trucks and barges. With the new equipment, Adamo has created a valuable new revenue stream, increased loading and logistics efficiency and even improved relations with landfill operators.

All of this used to be unrealized revenue to Adamo Demolition.

Unrealized Revenue Like most demolition contractors, Adamo was accustomed to using specially-equipped longreach excavators to tear down structures and then machines with a grapple followed up to pick through and load the debris for disposal. It was in 2004 that the firm first experimented with attaching a magnet to an excavator to pull out rebar and other ferrous scrap from the piles of rubble. “We were floored by the amount of scrap we were recovering,” Adamo said. At the time, he had a team working on an automotive factory project, with a large volume of metal in the structures. “Look at the recovery we can get — all this material we’ve been sending to the landfill, picked as clean as you can get it.” In one job, metal recovery added significantly in revenue to Adamo’s bottom line.

New Way of Maging A short time later, Adamo took advantage of an opportunity to acquire a used material handler and decided to “give it a shot at maging the site.” Maintaining that machine proved to be problematic. However, it demonstrated the advantages of replacing excavators with purpose-built material handlers. It was just a question of finding the right material handler for this application. This is when Alta Equipment, an equipment dealer in Michigan, connected Adamo with its Sennebogen line-up of material handlers. “I attended an open house at Alta and I saw an 821 M on their lot. I thought ‘That’s really cool. I’m really interested in that machine.’ It’s a good little unit; very mobile; it could suit a specific need.”

Adamo took down more than 1,400 homes in less than three months. Adamo describes that program as a unique project. “Each house is a job. It calls for significant resources for continual management. We had to move quickly and we able to get it done with no complaints from the neighbors.”

Support Adamo had two priorities in mind when he saw the 821: mobility and dealer support. With projects scattered across the country, the ability to transport equipment efficiently is a key point in planning. Larger sites also call for machines that travel quickly between work zones under their own power. And, as in any major project, reliability through long operating shifts is essential to meet deadlines. “Sennebogen made a great decision when they partnered up with Alta,” said Adamo. “The dealer support is through the roof. We have had no issues with downtime or parts availability. We rely on factory-certified technicians for all our equipment service. Alta works well with our dealers in other regions to give us a strong support network. We used to have our own certified mechanics on our staff but

they could only take it so far before they had to call the dealer. Now Alta supplies the techs as we need them through an ‘onsite’ labor agreement.” Mobile, Productive Adamo is just as pleased with the other machines that Alta has supplied. He purchased an 825 M soon after seeing his first 821, then larger 830 M models were added for new projects. “I’m pretty critical of equipment,” he said. “Our excavators were challenging at times to move. The 825 is night and day better.” Each of these models, up to the 830, can simply drive themselves on and off a lowboy to transport with greater ease, according to the manufacturer. The firm was recognized by the NDA for its work in Detroit to clear its blight of abandoned homes. At the peak of the program,

Effortless Reliability One 830 spent more than three years on a major industrial project in Muskingum, Ohio. “We had no problems in all that time — we learned something from that. Reliability is very high with Sennebogen.” “The effortless way the wheeled material handler works running on solid tires are certainly less troublesome than tracks to maintain. We leave the magnet on it rather than using an orange-peel grapple. This way, we avoid contaminating the various types of ferrous scrap in each load. Our biggest maintenance items, in fact, are the magnets. The way we use them, to sweep through piles means the ‘whips’ get frayed and need repairs. But there have been no major issues with our Sennebogen, just routine preventative maintenance at the regular intervals.” Bigger Machines for Bigger Jobs The fleet was expanded recently to include even larger material handlers. A Sennebogen 840 M was acquired for a power plant project in Ohio, where barge loading operations required a heavier machine with longer reach. The laydown area is located near the barge facility, a considerable distance from the demolished structures on the site. Using a 67 in. lifting magnet, the 840 loads off-road trucks with the see ADAMO page 46

Forestry Equipment Market Could Reach $17B By 2026 Rising incidences of wildfire across the world will have a major impact on forestry equipment market outlook over the next decade, according to a report by Global Market Insights Inc. Further, foresters and loggers are heavily dependent on these equipment to manage the task assigned to them. There are several machines designed specifically for specified tasks such as forest road construction, fuel treatment, logging and various other forest management activities. They are often called heavy equipment and are specialized machines that are purpose-built, designed and sized for the large number of forestry tasks. These equipment are often used to manage wildfire in forests as well as the wildlife and sanctuary to preserve the ecosystem in countries across the world. With the growing change in the climate due to heavy carbon dioxide emission, as well as some other factors, there has been an ostensible increase in the wildfire instances. They tend to consume millions of acres of land that destroy millions of homes for humans and animals alike.

Growing construction activities supplemented by increasing disposable income in the Asia Pacific region has proven to be beneficial for forestry equipment providers. British Colombia had registered a fire across 100,277 hectares of Lutz Creek in August 2018, while a campfire in California had burnt about 142,000 of acres of land in the same year. For the past decades, the United States has witnessed some of the largest recorded fires that poses a threat millions. Efforts to tackle these calamities will bolster forestry equipment market trends in the near future. Major industry players are involved in the development of more efficient forestry equipment and introduce innovative techniques that make performing tasks efficient

and more effective. They also indulge in various activities that help them develop newer and improved products with collective resources and ideas. Canada-based Tigercat Industries had acquired the U.S. based Ragnar Original Innovation in 2019, that manufactures a multi-use machine used in forestry, construction and recycling. Tigercat also will be adopting the latters Carbonizer product line that is capable of converting the processed and unprocessed wood debris into a product known as biochar, attracting major demand form forest departments. Similar acquisition efforts will impact global forestry equipment industry size. Recent instances like the fire that consumed half of the Amazon forest, as well as the Australian bushfire in 2019, had left innumerable animals either homeless or close to extinction. Forestry equipment was one of the things that was majorly required in such situations. The Forest Service, which is a part of the USDA, is planning to spend more than 50 percent of its main budget to control the wildfires that often occur in the country.

The infrastructure sector has been witnessing major demand for wood pellets and timber for construction activities of residential and commercial complexes. With growing urbanization and a steady rise in the disposable income at hand, there has been an escalating demand for wooden walls, roof and flooring designing in the living or working spaces. Growing construction activities supplemented by increasing disposable income in the Asia Pacific region has proven to be beneficial for forestry equipment providers as well. Wood pellets also include sawdust, peanut shell, saw shaving, straw and stalking among various others. They are used in industries as they help reduce pollution. Facilities are adopting CHP-models wherein these pellets will be playing a key role. They also are used for heating systems and hot water supplies as one of the best options for fueling the domestic supply. North America and Europe are the forerunners of wood pellet energy use as they have been exposing the product to notable applications, fueling forestry equipment demand to ensure a sustained pellet supply.

recovered material, which delivers the scrap to the laydown area. Once enough material is accumulated, the 840 is driven to the river to fill the barge. When it’s not loading trucks, the 840 continues maging out the debris piles. According to Adamo, due to Sennebogen’s elevating Maxcab his operators also appreciate the visibility they get, looking into the barges. “I always get good feedback from the operators; they just raise the cab and go to work. The machine doesn’t stop.” Unexpected Rewards The maging application gets unexpected kudos from landfill operators as well. As Adamo explained, the concrete material from their projects is commonly used as “hard fill” to cover the service roads in landfill sites. However, scrap metals mixed into the waste frequently takes a toll in flat tires for trucks on those roadways.

Since Adamo began cleaning metals from the debris it ships out, complaints about flats have gone down appreciably, he said. “Our biggest accomplishment, really, is segregating the metal to recycle,” said Adamo. “We were among the first to use the magnets for sweeping and cleaning the piles. We are now getting paid for material that otherwise would have been a cost for tipping fees at the dump.” “We have been engaged with Sennebogen and Alta now, for eight years and the experience has been great. Constantino Lannes [President of Sennebogen LLC] came to town a while ago and I was happy to tell him that Sennebogen is hands-down the best material handler in the market. They are all outstanding units: durable, reliable; the dealer support is remarkable. As we grow our business and our fleet, we won’t go anywhere else.” For more information, visit www.sennebogen.com/en/. 

The laydown area collected up the material and when ready, it all gets loaded on the barge.

John Deere Rolls Out New Performance Tiering Strategy Developed in response to evolving customer needs and expectations, John Deere launched its Performance Tiering Strategy, delivering a range of products at different levels of capability and user experience. Available first on the wheel loader lineup, the Performance Tiering Strategy supports customers by providing machine solutions built for various applications and jobs to enhance profitability and efficiency. Moving away from the traditional series letter designations, the Performance Tiering Strategy provides three tiers of machines — G tier, P tier and X tier. “Every job site is unique, and customers want machine solutions that can be personalized to meet their diverse needs, including performance, price and comfort,” said Jason Daly, global director, production systems, technology and marketing, John Deere. “By offering three tiers, customers can move up or down the spectrum to find the right mix of features, performance and innovation for their business and application.” The Performance Tiers are defined as: • Adding a premium edge, the X-tier models are built with the most innovative John Deere technology and features, delivering the highest levels of productivity, efficiency and customer experience. • P-tier models can be counted on to produce at high levels, day in and day out. Advanced features deliver exceptional performance, efficiency, comfort and service life in demanding, high-production applications. • The G-tier models are practically equipped and economical, providing proven capabilities with the reliability and ruggedness expected from John Deere. These

standard parallel lift Z-Bar loader linkage, high-lift plus option, electrohydraulic controls and dual return-to-dig settings. A highly productive and efficient 5-metric-ton wheel loader, the 644 X-tier features E-Drive technology, comprises a diesel-electric drivetrain and exemplifies the type of innovative features that distinguish the X tier, according to the manufacturer. The 644 G-tier is the first model to be available in the lineup of G-tier wheel loaders. Leveraging proven components and technologies, the 644 G-tier is equipped with an all-new cab designed to boost operator comfort and productivity. Customers can customize the machine through a variety of base-level packages, including axles, tires, ride control, seats, radio and rear chassis work-light selections. With the 644 G-tier machine, John Deere delivers a solution ideal for light to medium

construction jobs, such as stockpiling, short load-and-carry, truck and hopper loading, and material handling. Designed and manufactured by John Deere, all tiered machines are backed by the same level of support that customers have grown to rely on — including John Deere Connected Support and a five-year subscription to JDLink. Customers can distinguish the different levels of tiering by not only the attributes and capabilities, but also by the distinct branding and design cues on the machines. The John Deere X and P machines are now available for purchase in the United States and Canada, and the 644 G machine is available in Canada and other global markets. Other product categories will follow the Performance Tiering Strategy over time. For more information, visit www.JohnDeere.com/Findyourfit. 

XL Specialized Trailers XL 120 HDG 3+2 Trailer Is Adaptaple

The XL 120 HDG trailer features several different configuration options to haul equipment. This includes setting up with a 3+2 or 4+1.

XL Specialized Trailers has introduced the XL 120 hydraulic detachable gooseneck (HDG) 3+2 trailer. Boasting a 120,000 lbs. in 10 ft. concentrated capacity rating and a low 18-in. deck height, this new trailer is versatile and adaptable, allowing drivers to haul a wide range of construction equipment across the country. The XL 120 HDG trailer features several different configuration options to haul equipment. This includes setting up with a

3+2 or 4+1. The power booster also can be removed to run three, four or five axles in a row. Additionally, a modular deck connection adds deck sections or swaps out deck designs and allows for shimming when needed. The trailer is 53 ft. long overall. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The ability to adapt to the userâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s equipment makes this a very versatile unit for transportation,â&#x20AC;? said Tom Hiatt, director of sales at XL Specialized Trailers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The 18-

inch loaded deck height on a 120 hydraulic lowboy is a major benefit for those moving taller equipment.â&#x20AC;? The 13-ft. low-profile hydraulic gooseneck has a swing clearance of 107 in. and 36-in. flip neck extension. The neck also offers a five-position ride height. The 26-ft. long main deck offers a loaded deck height of only 18 in. with a ground clearance of 6 in., allowing the model to haul tall and heavy equipment.

The main deck possesses seven bent drings along with 13 chain drops per side for worry-free transportation. The rear deck is 14 ft. long with a 41-in. loaded deck height. The power booster on the XL 120 uses hydraulic pressure, accompanied by a nitrogen accumulator, to transfer weight from the trailer, while allowing the booster to be flexible for uneven terrain.

Virginia’s Museum of History & Culture’s New $30M Expansion Continues With Renovation The Virginia Museum of History & Culture (VMHC), at 428 N. Arthur Ashe Boulevard in Richmond, closed to the public Dec. 14 for its $30 million expansion and renovation project. The museum plans to remain shuttered until early April. The renovation will bring a new entrance and great hall to the VMHC as well as a new café with indoor and outdoor seating, a second-floor event terrace, a new immersive theater, exhibition spaces, a research library featuring a rare book and manuscript suite, and a bigger parking lot. “Our work to reimagine your state history museum is gaining momentum by the day — running ahead of schedule in some areas,” Jamie Bosket, president and CEO of the VMHC, said in a statement. “We are also mindful of surging COVID-19 cases regionally and dramatically-reduced visitation to the museum — both of which also informed our decision to move ahead more quickly with our work.” Online programming will continue at the museum, such as virtual gallery walks, talks with creators and educators, and the online shop will remain open. The VHMC broke ground for the expansion in October. Several weeks later, the museum removed a large grove of 100-year magnolias lining Sheppard Street, to the dismay of some residents. But the museum said that the Southern magnolias were nearing the end of their typical lifespan of 80 to 120 years and plans to replace them with trees of the same variety. More than 40 will be planted next year.

The museum also is changing its layout, expanding the parking lot, and moving its green space from the center of the parking lot to an area adjacent to the museum. The new green space will have seating, lighting and landscaping and will feature a grand staircase leading up to the new secondstory terrace. The VMHC has assembled a talented team to make the museum’s improvements, including Richmond architectural firm Glavé & Holmes, and the Whiting-Turner Contracting Co., based in Charlotte, N.C. The renovated museum will stay roughly the same size at 250,000 sq. ft., but it will have many new features including an immersive theater where the floor will be a screen and a new exhibit space called “Our Commonwealth,” designed to be a companion to “The Story of Virginia” exhibit at the VHMC. “Starting with our name change in 2018, we’ve been reinventing who we are and what we do,” Bosket said in September when announcing the expansion project. The museum began as a research library and study facility, but has changed over the years, especially in the last few decades, to become a museum to display Virginia’s rich history. “It’s our goal to be a welcoming, community-centered cultural attraction — a place for all Virginians,” Bosket said. 

Fabick Keeps Kenny’s Cats Running KENNY from page 12

Caterpillar and Fabick team behind them — Dad couldn’t have cared for Mom. And the machines enabled him to make enough money to pay her medical bills. “So, growing up, those dozers were like members of the family. We cherished them and took care of them, just like they took care of us.” Willadean passed away nearly 24 years ago, but her love for life and remarkable legacy lives on. Today, at age 91, Nichols continues working every day at the job he has loved for a lifetime. The family estimates that he’s spent more than

110,000 hours operating dozers — possibly claiming the record for logging the most hours operating a bulldozer. And those Cat machines? They just keep on running. “You can’t find machines that are any better. You can afford to pay more for a Cat machine because it’s cheaper in the long run. They last longer and they handle better. They prove themselves,” said Nichols. Does he think about retiring anytime soon? “Why quit something you like doing,” Nichols said. This story was reprinted with the permission of Caterpillar Inc. 

While the pilings are going up, sanitary sewer pipe and water line and natural gas line are being relocated below the existing bridge because they created a conflict with the proposed structures. Sliding Into Home While Nagi said there haven’t been any challenges he considered “unusual to bridge construction,” in December 2019 heavy rain produced a slide near the proposed location of abutment 1, which required crews to stabilize the site. More than 50 soil anchors, each 50 ft. long, were horizontally drilled through a retaining wall and secured with concrete grout. Clinch Avenue in Clinton also required repairs after heavy rains in November caused the road bed to fail in the northbound lanes just north of the Lewallen Bridge, according to the Clinton Police Department. In June 2020, after several months of delays, abutment 1 saw precast concrete sections installed around the existing steel beam pilings to create the structure. Using precast mate-

rials was chosen because it’s faster than building forms, pouring concrete and removing the forms. Because the new bridge does not feature steel trusses exposed over the road surface like the old bridge did, there’s no need for a protective coating of paint. The steel girder support beams will be visible only from beneath the bridge and feature a “weathered steel” surface designed to oxidize to a predetermined depth, forming a protective rust surface coating that eliminates the need for painting — and longterm maintenance that includes sandblasting and repainting. The driving surface, sidewalks and parapet walls will all have a concrete finish, but as a nod to the old bridge, the 38 LED light fixtures and poles will be painted green. Lighting and bike lanes were requested by the city. Additional Work After the bridge deck, sidewalk and parapet walls are complete, plans include building a road connection at the south end of the new bridge, aligning with Clinch Avenue; adding traffic control signs and pavement markings; installing the light fixtures; building the road connection, rebuilding Riverside Drive; adding a new parking area and sidewalks; installing a new storm sewer system; and demolishing the old bridge. Blalock estimates that traffic will begin crossing the new bridge in spring 2021.  CEG
