BABA’s Policies Bruising IIJA Benefits Inflation Has Contractors Taking Pass On Federally-Funded Transportation Projects Construction contractors are between a rock and a hard place: What the Biden administration’s IIJA has gifted with a hike in construction work, Buy America policies have taken away by making the work much pricier to perform. Construction costs rose almost 3 percent during the first quarter of 2023, and contractors have seen a 50 percent increase over the past two years. That has the transportation industry nervous for the future.

Last year’s National Highway Construction Cost Index (NHCCI) shows it reached “a new all-time high” in the first quarter of 2023. The Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) reported an increase of

The Arrigoni Bridge connecting Middletown and Portland, Conn., is a 1,200-ft.-long steel through arch bridge that carries Routes 66 and 17 across the Connecticut River. At $3.5 million, it was the most expensive bridge in the state when it opened in 1938.

The Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge is a 3,000-ft.-long, S-curved bridge — a $22 million project, which opened late in 2008. It is one of the longest pedestrian bridges ever to be built, allowing travel over the Missouri River. Part of former U.S. Sen. Bob Kerrey’s “Back-to-the-River” efforts, it connects the Port of Omaha’s Miller Landing to One Renaissance Center in Council Bluffs.

USPS Spectacular Bridges Stamps Highlight Construction

By Ruksana Hussain CEG CORRESPONDENT

The United States Postal Service (USPS) has shown a spotlight on the architectural design and engineering feats of some of the spectacular bridges that have been connecting people and places across the country for years with the release of four new Presorted First-Class Mail stamps. Ethel Kessler, an art director of USPS, used existing photographs to design these stamps, which include the multispan steel through arch Arrigoni Bridge connecting the Connecticut municipalities of Middletown and Portland; the S-curved cable-stayed Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge between Council Bluffs, Iowa, and Omaha, Neb.; the steel truss Skydance Bridge topped by a public sculpture in Oklahoma City; and the basket-handle twin arch Iowa-Illinois Memorial Bridge connecting Bettendorf, Iowa, and Moline, Ill. The bridges were completed between 1938 and 2022 and chosen for being important landmarks in their communities.

“We’re always looking for imaging or sets of stamps that can work. My first job was for an architectural firm and so I am not just sensitive to but enamoured with construction architecture and grand structures,” said Kessler. “Nobody gave me the assignment of doing bridges, it’s been something that I’ve had in my ‘way back burner folder’ for a long time and then it seemed like there was a need for this calibre of stamp.”

Kessler, who has worked at the USPS for more than 25 years, presented 10 different images from a range of places in the country, each bridge offering something unique. Four were finalized. Presorted First-Class Mail stamps are used for bulk business mailers

and must be used with a permit. They’re only sold in self-adhesive rolls of 3,000 and 10,000.

Arrigoni Bridge The Arrigoni Bridge connecting Middletown and Portland, Conn., (photographed by Joe Gowac) also is known as the Portland Bridge. The 1,200-ft.-long steel through arch bridge carries Routes 66 and 17 across the Connecticut River. It features two 600-ft. steel arches which have the longest span length of any bridge in that state. At $3.5 million, it was the most expensive bridge in the state when it opened in 1938.

The bridge underwent safety and pedestrian improvements from 2020 to 2022, which involved new sidewalks; improvements to bridge approaches on both sides; replacing of the bridge deck and bearings; painting; steel and concrete repairs; and other structural upgrades to increase the bridge’s lifespan.

Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge The Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge (photographed by Kyle Henderson) is a 3,000-ft.long, S-curved bridge — a $22 million project which opened late in 2008. It is one of the longest pedestrian bridges ever to be built, allowing travel over the Missouri River. Part of former U.S. Sen. Bob Kerrey’s “Back-tothe-River” efforts, it connects the Port of Omaha’s Miller Landing to One Renaissance Center in Council Bluffs.

The cable-stayed bridge looks like giant sails, standing at 52 ft. above the river and due to the 200-ft.-high single-tower pylons on either side. Dramatic lighting only adds to the visual appeal. The bridge deck has an unobstructed width of 15-ft. over the entire length of the bridge.

Skydance Bridge The Skydance Bridge in Oklahoma City (photographed by Christina Woods) is inspired by Oklahoma’s state bird, the scissor-tailed flycatcher, and soars over Interstate 40. This is a 380-ft.-long pedestrian bridge with a 197-ft.-tall sculpture.

The bridge opened in 2012, connects upper and lower Scissortail Park, and cost $5.8 million. It was named as one of the nation’s top 50 public arts projects by The Oklahoman at that time. The design was the winning entry in a national competition hosted by Oklahoma City. It has a steel hybrid structure with a vertically cantilevered tricord truss and simple span truss bridge as well as durable and recycled construction materials.

“It is an honor for Oklahoma City, and Skydance Bridge, to be represented on this historic U.S. postage stamp commemorating this iconic landmark,” said Shannon Cox, Public Works Public Information Officer.

Iowa-Illinois Memorial Bridge The $1 billion basket-handle twin arch Iowa-Illinois Memorial Bridge connecting Bettendorf, Iowa, and Moline, Ill., (photographed by Miller + Miller Architectural Photography) began construction in 2017 and opened to traffic in 2021.

The gateway to the Quad Cities region on the I-74 corridor spans 800 ft., 6 mi. long and provides four lanes in each direction to address growing traffic concerns in the area.

The final bridge design was completed by leading bridge engineering firm Modjeski and Masters. The westbound span was announced a winner in the major span category at the 2022 Prize Bridge Awards by The American Institute of Steel Construction and

the National Steel Bridge Alliance.

Kessler found the images she worked with and works on Adobe Creative Suite for design. She has, in fact, maintained a folder titled Bridges with samples in it for at least 15 years now.

“One of the first stamps that I worked on was for Frederick Law Olmstead who is the father of landscape architecture and designed Central Park. I had worked for an architectural firm and so I had the sensitivity to that subject and before I started doing stamps, I had a design firm that did work for a lot of architecture construction and landscape architecture firms so it’s right up my alley.”

Four art directors meet monthly with the staff of the stamp staff division (in addition to others involved in visual research, text writing, photo assistance, etc.) presenting the different projects they’re working on. The decision on the number of designs to be released happens then. Suggestions from the public are considered but they are advised to do so at least three years out because it takes quite a while to get through legal clearance for many things especially stamps featuring people but sometimes stamps featuring previously used art.

A significant legal process follows in order to get images and rights to use those images. The Citizens’ Stamp Advisory Committee (CSAC), appointed by the Postmaster General, approves any ideas coming in from the public or the art directors. They determine subjects based on specific stamp selection criteria. Names of current members of the advisory committee as well as detailed information on the process is available on the USPS website.

Parman Holdings Corp. Acquires Cleburne Farm Supply Parman Holdings Corporation, an employee-owned CFS will operate as a second company, is set to acquire Cleburne Farm Supply location for Parman Tractor (CFS) in January 2024. & Equipment.

CFS will operate as a second location for Parman Tractor & Equipment (PT&E), a subsidiary of Parman Holdings. PT&E is prepared to provide the high level of service and support CFS has maintained for years.

Pat Campbell, owner of Cleburne Farm Supply, established the Columbia based dealership on Bear Creek Pike 20-plus years ago. The sales, service and parts departments will continue representing the AGCO brand, a global leader in agricultural solutions.

PT&E will expand the location’s offerings with a fully equipped rental department carrying reliable brands such as Link-Belt, Takeuchi, Sakai, Morbark and more.

Parman Holdings acquired Parman Tractor & Equipment five years ago and has experienced significant growth through the diversification expansion into construction and agricultural equipment. Charley Crichton, Parman veteran, continues serving as president of Parman Tractor and Equipment with support of Colin Hockenberger as general manager.

“I am thrilled with the opportunity to continue the legacy brand and by incorporating our construction lines of that Pat has created at Cleburne Farm Supply in Columbia,” Takeuchi and Link-Belt Excavators, Parman will be well said Crichton. “By leveraging the strength of the AGCO positioned to successfully support both longstanding and

new customers in the southern middle Tennessee region.”

About Parman The Parman name has been synonymous with premium petroleum products and reliable service in Middle Tennessee since the mid-1930s. Parman Energy Group currently operates from locations throughout Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas and Minnesota and continues to look for ways to evolve and grow.

Parman Energy Group, with its subsidiaries, is a sister company to Parman Tractor & Equipment and Parman Properties which are held by Parman Holdings Corporation, an employee-owned company.

Rachel Hockenberger, president and CEO of Parman Holdings Corporation, said, “As an employee-owned company, we aspire to create opportunities.

With the expansion into Columbia, we are increasing our geographical footprint for our existing partnerships and welcoming the opportunity to diversify our offerings with AGCO. We are growing our brand, service offerings, and value for the employee-owners of the Parman Companies.

Raleigh Arena Renovation Plans Take Early Pivot Due to Cost As the Centennial Authority in Raleigh, N.C., begins to move forward with the $300 million reimagining of the city’s PNC Arena, one key pillar of how those plans were originally envisioned has already been set aside.

The arena is home to both North Carolina State University’s Wolfpack men’s basketball team and the Carolina Hurricanes of the National Hockey League (NHL), in addition to hosting more than 400 events each year, including major sporting events, music concerts and business conferences.

Construction over the arena’s north-side loading docks has long been intended to create new offices for the Hurricanes and free up their existing space on the arena’s sixth floor — prime real estate overlooking Carter-Finley Stadium — for other uses.

But in December, the Raleigh News & Observer reported the initial cost of the office complex priced out at more than $45 million and as much as $65 million, which stakeholders — including the Hurricanes and N.C. State — deemed too large a portion of the renovation budget.

“We’ve heard from both Gale Force and N.C. State, and they didn’t believe that made sense from a financial standpoint,” Marc Farha, the CAA/ICON consultant acting as the Centennial Authority’s representative, said during a recent update on the project.

The decision was a shock to a number of authority members who have been reviewing plans to repurpose that area of the build-

ing for almost a decade. When the building was constructed in 1999, the authority spent $2 million — possibly as much as $10 million in today’s dollars, given the increased cost of construction materials — to put foundations in place for an eventual expansion of the arena’s north side.

“I thought a big part of the plan was to go into that space,” said authority member Bill Mullins, voicing concerns shared by many authority members.

“Until we found out the numbers,” added Hurricanes/Gale Force President Don Waddell.

While unexpected, the change in direction is a reminder that the renovation of the 24year-old arena is an ongoing process that will likely alter course several times before work is completed, and that very long journey is just at its beginning.

“We’re all rowing in the same direction.

Everybody’s on the same page when it comes to the things that really matter,” explained Philip Isley, the Centennial Authority’s chair. “Knocking out this little issue…again, it’s unfortunate that we’re not freeing up other parts of the building, but we’re also saving an enormous amount of money that will go to things fans see and feel instead of new office space.”

Renovations to Be Planned in Three Phases Farha told the authority that agreements

have been finalized with two architecture firms, HOK, a global company, and the Raleigh office of Ratio Architects, along with a consortium of three North Carolinabased contractors, Goldsboro’s T.A. Loving, Blum Construction in Winston Salem, and Metcon Buildings & Infrastructure in Pembroke.

He added that 60 potential enhancement projects have been prioritized into three waves.

Those waves correspond with the three payments of $100 million the Centennial Authority was allocated by the city of Raleigh and Wake County in August’s landmark agreement between the body and the Hurricanes to extend the team’s lease and give team owner Tom Dundon a green light to develop the 80 vacant acres around the arena into a multiuse entertainment district.

“The last two months have been a lot of work,” Farha said in December. “There’s not a lot of pretty pictures to show but that’s coming very quickly. We’re constantly pivoting and adjusting and reacting to what we’re hearing as we walk the building and things come up. It’s a fluid situation.”

He added that he imagined the initial planning and programming phase would take another four to five months, which would put the renovations right on the edge of the timeline Isley proposed in August, which was to begin construction in the summer of 2024.

According to Isley, even if the big-picture

renovations do not begin by then, other projects — including the long-overdue renovation of the visiting locker rooms — would be under way.

Cost Increase Is Expected But the initial prioritization and pricing has already thrown up one unexpected development, the News & Observer reported, and there will certainly be more as actual construction approaches.

“Cost is a consideration in everything we do in this building,” Isley said.

On that note, Mullins, who has been the authority’s fiscal conscience for decades, agreed — but with a caveat.

“I’m happy to hear that you just threw $50 million back in the pot,” he said. “But I’m curious to hear how we’re going to do the rest of the building.”

Waddell also confirmed the Hurricanes’ long-rumored plans to purchase the Backyard Bistro restaurant adjacent to the arena and turn it into a temporary sportsbook when sports gambling becomes legal in North Carolina in 2024.

Permanent sportsbooks are planned both within the arena and as a keystone of the development outside it.

PNC Arena currently encompasses approximately 700,000 sq. ft. and has four different seating levels that can accommodate a seating capacity of up to 20,000 patrons. 

Gregory Poole Cat Celebrates Its Latest N.C. Store Opening

G

regory Poole Equipment Company, a Raleigh-based construction equipment company, held a grand opening of its newest store Jan. 22, 2024, in Sanford, N.C., the distributorship’s ninth construction location in the eastern half of the Tarheel State and its first location in Sanford.

Located just southwest of what is North Carolina’s ever-expanding Triangle region, encompassing the cities of Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill, Sanford was identified by Gregory Poole IV, product support director, and other company executives as an area ripe for a new Cat dealership.

Helping them make that decision is the city’s growth and proximity to several industrial parks and multi-billion-dollar manufacturing plants. Among them are the Caterpillar production facility expansion in Sanford, as well as the VinFast electric vehicle and Wolfspeed semiconductor factories, both of which are just a short drive north up U.S. Highway 421 in Chatham County.

“We looked at a lot of different properties, including raw land and various industrial facilities, but when we set foot on this property in September 2022, we immediately knew that this was a really good fit for us,” Poole said. “This building has good bones, and we could refurbish it to be what we needed. In addition, with 15 acres, we also have a lot of room to expand. Depending on customer demand, as well as job growth in this area, we can build more on this property and grow with our customer base to support the broader Sanford area.”

Poole’s associate, Rob Jackson, the company’s sales director, noted that even though the new Sanford branch of the dealership has only two service bays, the plan is to add another pair of “very large” service areas designed to handle machines up to a Cat 308 mini-excavator, in addition to aerial and Allied equipment.

“What we will be offering from this location will be equipment sales, rental, parts and service,” said Poole.

“Additionally, we are going to designate the Sanford location as an operator-training hub, meaning that we will utilize different kinds of simulators here for operator training and offer classroom space. Also, we have a big yard outside that will allow us to demo different machines and train the next generation of operators.”

For more information, call 919/3550511 or visit www.gregorypoole.com. 

Anaconda’s Investment in U.S. Results in Strong Growth

By Eric Olson CEG CONTRIBUTING EDITOR

Over the span of just 15 years, Anaconda Equipment has grown to become a respected manufacturer of material handling products in the industry.

With its headquarters and global manufacturing facility based in Northern Ireland, the mecca of material equipment, Anaconda has been in the American marketplace since 2009. Three years later, the maker established its sister company, Anaconda USA Inc., in Bellingham, Mass., to better serve the U.S. dealer base with technical support and spares.

The cultivation of strong partnerships with exclusive dealers throughout the country has been instrumental in the placement of close to 1,000 units into America over the past decade.

As Anaconda continues to expand its product offering into full-line crushing equipment, it is actively seeking to grow its presence in the market with additional partnerships in several states.

Michael-Paul McCann, Anaconda USA’s marketing and business development man-

Seen here is the Anaconda DF410 scalping screen.

ager, spoke recently on a range of topics, including the company’s products, growth and future plans while visiting Sound Heavy Equipment in Wilmington, N.C., one of the manufacturer’s dealerships.

“When we started out, we were making compact containerized equipment that could inexpensively be shipped to market,” he

As Anaconda continues to expand its product offering into full-line crushing equipment, it is actively seeking to grow its presence in the market with additional partnerships in several states.

said. “We now offer the full range of crushing, screening, mobile conveying and washing products for processing aggregate materials. In terms of screening, we have finishing screens, scalping screens and trommel screens, totaling 11 different models. We also offer a mobile tracked jaw crusher, impact crusher, and the soon-to-be-released C12 cone crusher.”

In addition, Anaconda’s product lineup includes three models each of its mobile feeding, tracked and wheeled conveyors.

And the equipment maker is not content to sit back and admire its current stable of machinery as plans are under way to unveil the new Anaconda cone crusher model in the next several months, McCann said.

“Our new C12/C12R cone crusher is one that is able to recirculate materials back into the feeder again,” he said. “We are working with our engineering team on trying to get a big product launch for it set up in the first half of 2024.”

Anaconda Offers Resourceful Machines, Expert Support McCann noted that customers also are drawn to Anaconda equipment once they learn the manufacturer considers itself as a complete and attentive product, service and support company.

“We understand that when you use our

equipment at a quarry, for instance, or any application where tons of rock and dirt are thrown at the machine for several hours each day, that maintenance will be required to keep the machine operating and eliminate the chance of downtime,” he said. “But the thing to remember is that Anaconda and our dealer network will always back you up with expert service, parts and technical support.

“To me, that would be the main reason to choose Anaconda equipment,” he added.

In 2019, Anaconda received a major boost when it was acquired by the McLanahan Corp., based in Hollidaysburg, Pa., just outside Pittsburgh. The almost 200-year-old multi-industry manufacturer did so just as Anaconda was launching its crushing lines, McCann said, but as the larger company had decades working in the aggregates industry, it brought Anaconda needed experience to that product segment.

In fact, the chambers — or boxes — found in Anaconda’s jaw and impact crushers, he said, are sourced through McLanahan.

“Those chambers are tried and trusted stationary units throughout the industry,” according to McCann. “I think there are 7,000 jaws and 1,500 impactors working in North America in static applications. What we did was take that concept and put it into a tracked solution.” see ANACONDA page 32

Technical Innovations Will Guarantee Efficient Processes Many quarriers or recycling companies wish for plants that can be operated economically, but also as sustainable and emissionfree as possible. Kleemann counts on innovative technical solutions and comprehensive consultation with the customers.

Intelligent Technology Optimizes Processes The technical solutions related to process optimization include precise regulating instruments such as the innovative continuous feed system (CFS), which ensures that the feed material at the crushers is always conveyed with maximum efficiency through the machines.

The fill level of the crushing chamber is monitored continuously and the feed is adapted to the process. This optimized process ensures that material wear is as low as possible. Furthermore, the fuel consumption also is reduced — both of which are good for the environment.

Efficient, Trouble-Free Processes The continuous feed system is an example of how the complete process can be optimized by intelligent technology. Technical innovations, however, are only building blocks. Good planning of a plant train is just as important, if not more. Technical innovations can only fully demonstrate their

strengths when all components closely mesh with one another.

Good Tuning Is Indispensable To work effectively and thus in a resource-conserving manner, the plant must be neither too small nor over-dimensioned.

The selection of the crushing plants with the matching crushing tools is thus decisive, and the screening plants — equipped with the

consumption can be reduced many times over, the manufacturer said. A process optimized in this manner also means that wear is reduced to an absolute minimum. This also is an important point because if components wear quickly, new components have to be produced with a high material and energy input.

Avoidance of unnecessary wear therefore not only help saves money, but also reduces CO₂ emissions to a considerable extent.

Anaconda Equipment Looks to Expand U.S. Dealership Base The cultivation of strong partnerships with exclusive dealers throughout the country has been instrumental in the placement of close to 1,000 units into America over the past decade.

ANACONDA from page 25

He noted that McLanahan focuses much of its time manufacturing major static and washing plants, but beyond aggregates, it also makes an extensive list of other equipment, including those that handle coal, recycle C&D and produce concrete.

Manufacturer Working to Expand United StatesÊ Dealership Base As a business development professional for Anaconda, a big part of McCann’s job is to create long-standing relationships with distributors like Sound Heavy Machinery, located near the southeast North Carolina coast.

“They were working with Anaconda before I came aboard with the company — I would say seven or eight years at least,” he said. “Sound Heavy does a fantastic job in providing outstanding support to customers who use Anaconda products by keeping our

parts on its shelves. The dealership also has talented people to commission our equipment to make sure they properly run for customers and there is little to no downtime. If something does go wrong, they see to it that our machine is up and running in a day, which is essential to the customer.”

One of Anaconda’s key goals over the next few years, he said, will be to continue expanding its dealer base in America because there are many states where the manufacturer does not currently have coverage.

Most of its dealers are found in the eastern half of the country, “but we want to drive into areas where we don’t have any representation, specifically in the western U.S.,” McCann said.

On Jan. 17, during a ceremony in the Montabert AED Summit suite, the company awarded honors for market share to Brandeis Machinery and Power Equipment, which demonstrated outstanding growth in terms of market share.

According to Aaron Scarfia, general manager, Montabert USA, “We are proud to honor these two dealers for their accomplishments in 2023.

Metso Introduces New Generation Reactorwell Upgrade Feed System Metso is launching the Reactorwell upgrade — a new generation feedwell upgrade — for maximizing thickener and clarifier performance while minimizing flocculant consumption and bringing significant operational cost efficiencies.

The first-class feed system upgrade features high solids retention and mixing efficiency. It eliminates feed shortcircuiting and offers low shear for ideal floccule growth and even discharge symmetry. The new feed system upgrade provides optimum feed conditioning for thickeners and clarifiers.

Due to its many benefits in addition to low flocculant usage, the

Reactorwell upgrade is part of Metso’s sustainable Planet Positive portfolio.

The Reactorwell upgrade enables a big leap forward in thickener and clarifier performance as it utilizes maximum settling area due to its high exit symmetry. It also provides improved overflow clarity as well as higher underflow density. Additionally, the Reactorwell upgrade allows better thickener operability with an improved response to process changes.

“The Reactorwell’s design allows it to be integrated into existing mining operations as an upgrade that is compatible with most makes of thickeners.

We offer expertise and support to retro-

fit existing infrastructure without major modifications. The Reactorwell can also be upgraded to a new channel configuration if process conditions significantly change,” said Andrew Mcintosh, senior product manager, thickening at Metso.

The Reactorwell upgrade is easy to maintain due to its intelligent design and modularity. It consistently achieves high unit area throughput and the improved Autodil performance minimizes the need for pumped dilution, leading to lower total cost of ownership.

Tips On Selecting the Right Snow Tool for Your Application Ignite Attachments photo

Snowblade

When it comes to snow removal, getting the job done as quickly as possible is usually a top priority. However, bigger doesn’t always mean better when it comes to snow tools. To maximize efficiency, operators need to ensure they’ve got the right tool for the job and the carrier. Ask yourself these three questions to get the right fit for your snow removal application.

Snowpusher

What Does Job Site Look Like Are you looking to clear a large open space, or do you need something that can get into tight spaces and around obstacles? The layout of your job site will be the primary factor in your snow tool choice: Snow Pusher • Best for open spaces • Move large volumes of snow quickly • Turn heavy snow into a lighter lift for your machine • No hoses or hydraulic hookups Snow Blade • Best for driveways, sidewalks and other precision snow removal applications • More versatility in where snow can go • Push snow out of the way or into windrows • Requires hydraulics Snow Blower • Highly maneuverable and great for precision snow removal • Propels snow out of the way rather than just pushing • Not available for all types of compact equipment You also will want to assess any obstacles that might be hidden under the snow, such as curbs, manhole covers and other immovable objects. As a side note, operators should always wear their seatbelt, and they should travel at a slow rate until they are familiar with the area. Hitting hidden objects that are under the snow could injure the operator as well as damage your machine and attachment.

What Can My Carrier Handle When working with any attachment, it’s important to know your carrier’s limitations. This includes the operating and lifting capacity. Snow can be very heavy, especially when pushing it over

large open areas with a snow pusher. You want an attachment that is wider than your compact tractor, skid steer or compact track loader.

You’ll also need to make sure you have enough tractive effort and horsepower for large volumes of snow. If using a snow blower, you’ll also want to ensure adequate PTO. Your dealer can help with understanding your carrier’s specifications. There also are online tools, like Ignite Attachments’ Fit Finder, that allow you to simply enter your carrier’s make and model for confident online purchasing.

Which Tool Has Best ROI for Situation The best way to maximize ROI on your attachment is to pick the right tool for all or most of your planned snow removal applications. Look for things like: • Durable construction to handle heavy loads and frequent use • Reinforced frame to withstand the weight of heavy snow and impacts • Reversible and replaceable skid shoes • Adjustable spring-loaded blade trip • Reversible, high-strength steel cutting edges to double the useful life of blades • Corrosive-resistant finishes • Top-notch service and support Snow removal is never a fun task, but with the right equipment, you can get the job done quickly and efficiently. 

Volvo Trucks Expands Its Certified EV Dealer Network Volvo Trucks North America announced that Vanguard Truck Centers has completed its Volvo Trucks Certified Electric Vehicle (EV) Dealer program at five locations — Phoenix, Ariz; Atlanta, Ga. (Forest Park); Charlotte, N.C.; and Austin and Houston, Texas — to provide comprehensive sales and service support for customers’ electromobility journeys.

With the addition of Vanguard’s five locations, Volvo Trucks has now expanded its Certified EV Dealer network into three additional states — Arizona, Georgia and North Carolina — bringing its total to 50 certified dealership locations in 24 U.S. states and three Canadian provinces across North America.

“It is inspiring to see Vanguard Truck Centers making the investment to certify multiple locations simultaneously across the United States and continuing the expansion of the Volvo Trucks electromobility ecosystem,” said Peter Voorhoeve, president, Volvo Trucks North America.

“Cost is still a significant barrier to electrification, particularly at scale, and our colleagues at Volvo Financial Services recognize this as well as they’ve introduced new financing options for both our customers and dealers to support them with their shift to zero-emission solutions.”

To become a Volvo Trucks Certified EV Dealer, Vanguard took advantage of a new financing program offered to dealers by Volvo Financial Services (VFS) that enabled its dealerships to install onsite charging stations and dedicated EV service bays, acquire diagnostic tools and personal protective

equipment for technicians working with high-voltage systems, and purchase parts inventory for the VNR Electric model. Similarly, VFS recently introduced new financing options for fleets to support the cost of installing charging infrastructure, as well as service and maintenance plans.

“VFS now offers holistic solutions for customers that combine the entire EV ecosystem into a single, convenient payment. This enables fleets to distribute the cost of transitioning their fleet to battery-electric vehicles, rather than committing all their capital upfront,” said Christopher Roback, vice president of sales and customer experience, Volvo Financial Services.

“This addresses the practical and financial considerations of adopting battery-electric trucks and will have a transfor-

mative impact on the evolving needs of fleets in the rapidly changing transportation landscape.”

Founded in 1989, Vanguard Truck Centers serves the transportation industry with 26 modern facilities spanning Texas, Arizona, Missouri, Illinois, South Carolina, North Carolina and Georgia. To support this demand, Vanguard has trained 10 technicians, two at each location, to perform routine batteryelectric truck maintenance and repairs for customers’ trucks in operation. The first five locations are now prepared with certified EV sales and service representatives to support customers as additional fleets begin to adopt zero-emission vehicles. The dealer group plans to continually evaluate each location for additional training and certification opportunities as market demand grows for zero-tailpipe emission solutions.

“We are very excited with the response from our customers regarding Vanguard’s commitment to supporting electric vehicles. Battery-electric trucks are an important part of the future of trucking and our customers want to be a part of this exciting new technology — we are getting inquiries daily,” said John Thomas, executive vice president of new truck sales, Vanguard Truck Centers.

“We have been having ongoing discussions with customers who have never purchased a Volvo Truck in the past but are interested in the technology and have heard the positive response to the Volvo VNR Electric truck and want to learn more.”

BABA Policy Has Been in Existence Since Late 1970s POLICY from page 1

Adobe Stock photo

Transportation construction inflation has risen by 50 percent over the last two years.

2.7 percent from the last quarter of 2022.

During the 2.5-year span, second quarter 2022 grew faster than any other period, at 11.9 percent.

BTS also noted that highway construction costs jumped in the last 9 of 10 quarters through the first quarter of 2023.

“Over the 10 quarters, highway construction costs grew 53.8 percent,” reported the federal bureau.

Double-Edged Sword The Biden administration has heavily campaigned the Buy America Act (BABA) with a goal of growing the policy into new areas. A proposed new rulemaking project with a goal of applying BABA to manufactured products is scheduled to be published in April.

“Until the proposal is published, we cannot gauge likely impacts,” said Marc Scribner, transportation policy analyst of think tank Reason Foundation. “If the rule is expansive in scope, it is likely to impose significant new construction costs on state departments of transportation.”

Scribner said the fed’s eagerness to leverage BABA’s expansion is “especially unfortunate” for state transportation agencies.

States “have seen highway construction costs increase by 50 percent over the past two years.”

Congress imposed BABA procurement requirements for federally funded state highway projects during the Carter administration. The 1978 Surface Transportation Assistance Act made the use of domestic steel, iron and manufactured products mandatory for federally funded projects.

A general waiver was applied back then to products and materials, other than structural steel, used in highway construction.

Scribner said in 1983 Congress find-tuned BABA requirements and maintained the general waiver for manufactured products.

“In doing so, FHWA agreed that it was ‘very difficult to identify the various materials and then trace their origin’ in complex manufactured products,” he said.

The BABA waiver for manufactured products has held its place on the federal policy books since then.

But labor unions and manufacturers both have opposed the general waiver all this time, citing protectionist issues.

According to Scribner, the anti-trade lobby scored a significant win with IIJA, which included the BABA. “BABA expressed a general policy preference against any ‘waiver … not limited to the use of specific products for use in a specific project.’”

The Biden administration has applauded

If BABA’s domestic-sourcing policies expand further, it’s likely to impose significant new construction costs on states.

the $92 million increase in highway spending that was a major chunk of IIJA. “Unfortunately, it is increasingly likely that inflation will wipe out the entirety of that funding increase,” believes Scribner.

“New Buy America requirements on manufactured products will make this problem even worse.”

He notes the federal Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) has the impacts of BABA on FHWA projects listed as “undetermined.”

Scribner believes this suggests the final rule will determine where annual costs land on the status scale.

It’s a matter of whether costs reach $100 million, considered “major” status, or $200 million, “significant” status.

“FHWA could choose to combine any narrowing or repeal of the general waiver with a more robust and permissive productspecific waiver process.”

Scribner maintains that policymakers need to understand that in the “real world of budget constraints,” cost increases translate to less work.

“Federally mandated cost increases necessarily translate to fewer transportation projects and reduced benefits for Americans,” he said. “The best option would be for Congress to reconsider BABA and instead codify a general manufactured products waiver.”

This would reduce uncertainty and avoid cost increases associated with the “significant” interpretation of BABA’s manufactured products application, he said.

Industry’s Perspective As an example of the tenuous situation, Washington State finds its transportation construction activity hamstrung by construction inflation.

WSDOT advertised a Seattle bridge project with a cost of just more than $800 million.

The agency received only two bids, and the lowest was approximately $1.3 billion.

“Such a massive overshoot of the estimated price tag is cause for concern to lawmakers on its own,” wrote David Kroman of the Seattle Times.

In July, the state awarded a contract for work on I-405 toll lanes that was $230 million over its estimated price. And a contract for related work on Highway 167 was 40 percent over the estimation. The price to convert three ferries to hybrid-electric went up by $30 million, or 25 percent, according to the Times.

The situation has state lawmakers concerned. Washington is on a “15-year sprint” to build out its transportation network.

“It makes it tough to do all of the projects we’ve voted on to pass and to do,” Sen. Curtis King said. “It makes it tough to meet those promises.”

Several factors are at play, including material costs, supply-chain delays — and inflation.

“But WSDOT has raised particular alarm about a trend noticed over the last year and a half: declining competition for large designbuild contracts,” wrote Kroman.

As recently as 2021, the state averaged more than six bids per project. So far in 2023, that number has dropped to around 2.5, he noted.

“It’s certainly a concerning trend because we have a lot of design builds coming up in the next couple of years,” said Chris Christopher, WSDOT. The combined demand for contractors

and labor shortages has created a one-two punch in the gut for the state’s transportation build-out.

“We’ve got a lot of large contracts happening and the contractors who are capable … are not as numerous as they need to be,” said Sen. Marko Liias.

As a result, the state is considering ways to create more appeal for smaller contractors, including breaking these megaprojects into multiple, smaller contracts.

For now, Rep. Jake Fey proposed rejecting Highway 520 bids and revisiting the details of the project. “We don’t have another $500 million laying around.”

FHWA’s Take On Index Results It’s a situation affecting contractors across the transportation construction spectrum and well beyond Washington State.

In analyzing the latest NHCC index results, FHWA reported that for the second quarter of 2023 a 3.8 percent increase continued from the first quarter.

“Compared to the historical quarterly average of 1.4 percent growth, this is still higher than average inflation,” said FHWA. The agency said the numbers are “less than the high inflation observed during 2021 and 2022, where average quarterly growth was 5.2 percent.” see POLICY page 62

enhancing connectivity. All bridges within the project limits will be replaced, including the bridges at County Road (CR) 438, CR 455 and West Orange Trail, and widening the bridges over Jones Road, Old Highway 50 and Blackstill Lake Road. Additionally, the project will replace existing toll booths and canopies at the Clermont/SR 50 entrance and exit ramps with new electronic tolling gantries and buildings, as part of the Enterprise’s ongoing pursuit toward more efficient business operations and customer convenience. Two new roundabouts on either side of the CR 455 bridge enhance traffic flow on CR 455 and Old Highway 50.

Prioritizing safety, the project incorporates new highlyreflective pavement markings, signage, guardrail, lighting and intelligent transportation systems. Pedestrian access also is a key feature with the installation of walkways on the CR 438 and CR 455 bridges and replacement of the West Orange Trail bridge. The new Fosgate Road bridge near the northern project end will allow Lake County to expand its roadway network to provide additional access to residents and growing communities in the area.

The project is at 46.1 percent of contract time and is ahead of schedule. This achievement is attributed to the collaborative efforts between the contractor, Jr. Davis Construction Company Inc., the Construction Engineering and Inspection team, JBS Engineering Technical Services Inc. and the

Enterprise, notably through a proactive Alternate Traffic Control Plan that plays a crucial role in the project’s anticipated expedited completion. Orlando-based DRMP Inc. provided structural engineering, geospatial, stormwater management and ecological services.

“To date, there have been 44 subcontractors who have worked on the project and contributed to its success,” said

Kerry French, communications outreach coordinator.

Acknowledging the potential impact on nearby residents and businesses, construction is being carried out during both daytime and nighttime hours to ensure expedited project completion. The project team maintains an open line of communication with the communities, addressing questions and concerns promptly. Lane closures are strategically scheduled during off-peak hours to minimize traffic congestion and disruptions.

The Enterprise and project team work together to ensure impacts to the surrounding residents and travelers are minimized, and that the project is completed within project time.

Some examples of the benefits to this teamwork include various project successes. The Oakland Avenue and West Orange Trail bridges were reconstructed and opened to the public on time. The Bike Trail along Old Highway 50 and CR 455 was scheduled to be closed for approximately six months during the phased construction of the newly constructed roundabouts and elevation change of the existing roadways but reopened in two months. The CR 455 bridge was closed in late March 2022 and reopen early March 2023, meeting the commitment made to the community.

The project underwent the Enterprise’s extensive project development process, including planning, which involved the efficient transportation decision making (ETDM)

process; corridor feasibility studies and alternative corridor evaluation (ACE) studies; project development and environment (PD&E) study; design; and right of way acquisition.

Despite industrywide challenges such as long lead times and product shortages, the project has experienced minimal delays. The early procurement and stockpiling of materials by the contractor mitigated potential setbacks.

Environmentalists were hired at the beginning of the project to ensure safe removal and relocation of animal species from the project construction area. Bats were removed from all bridge structures, sealing any entry points to ensure they could not reenter the structure prior to demolition.

“Environmental considerations, including the relocation of 55 gopher tortoises, showcase the Enterprise’s commitment to responsible construction practices,” said French.

“The gopher tortoises were removed following authorized capture methods and silt fencing was installed to keep tortoises from entering the worksite after removal.”

Material usage on this project so far includes 660,000 cu. yds. of embankment; 203,000 tons of asphalt; 9,300 cu. yds. of concrete; 53,000 linear ft. of concrete barrier wall; and 30,000 linear ft. of curb and gutter. The project employs cutting-edge technology and equipment for monitoring and installation, ensuring efficiency and precision for wick drains, mass concrete temperature reading meters, retaining wall soil anchor testing, inclinometers and piezometers for surcharge movement monitoring, and GPS surveying.

“With 100 to 175 active workers on-site at any given time, the collaborative efforts of the Enterprise and project team ensure that impacts to the surrounding residents and travelers are minimized, and the project is completed within project time,” said Kerry.

As the project advances, it stands as a testament to the industry’s commitment and crucial role in infrastructure development and safety. The widened Florida Turnpike will continue to serve as a vital roadway in Central Florida, promoting enhanced connectivity and mobility.  CEG

ABC: Construction Adds Nearly 12,000 Jobs in December 2023 The construction industry added 17,000 jobs on net in December, according to an Associated Builders and Contractors analysis of data released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

On a year-over-year basis, industry employment has grown by 197,000 jobs, an increase of 2.5 percent.

In December, nonresidential construction employment increased by 11,900 positions on net, with growth in 2 of the 3 subcategories.

Nonresidential building added 8,100 positions, while nonresidential specialty trade added 4,300 jobs on net. Heavy and civil engineering lost 500 jobs.

The construction unemployment rate fell to 4.4 percent in December.

Unemployment across all industries remained unchanged at 3.7 percent.

“Despite strong construction industry employment growth, today’s jobs report was highly contradictory,” said ABC Chief Economist Anirban Basu. “On one hand, economywide payroll employment expanded faster than expected in December, and the unemployment rate remained unchanged at 3.7 percent, close to the lowest level in over a half a century.

Construction employment increased for the ninth consecutive month, with the nonresidential segment adding jobs at a particularly rapid pace.

“On the other hand, the labor force shrank by 676,000 persons in December, the largest decline since early 2021,” said Basu. “Wage growth also accelerated, with average hourly earnings up 4.1 percent year over year across all industries. That’s faster than expected and a level not consistent with a return to 2 percent inflation. Construction industry earnings have increased at an even faster rate over the past year.

“This is only one month’s data and could contain significant statistical noise,” said Basu. “That said, the combination of faster wage growth and a smaller labor force suggests that interest rates could remain higher for longer.”

Indexes Suggest Easing of Inflation On Material Prices POLICY from page 50

They suggested that elevated inflation in 2021 and 2022 may have been driven by supply chain disruptions and fluctuating oil prices.

“Current trends in the index indicate that as these factors stabilize, the NHCCI may revert to its long-term average.”

Overall changes in such construction-related indexes suggests an easing of inflation on material prices, said FHWA. “Divergence in producer price index [PPI] and NHCCI suggests factors other than material input prices may be contributing to NHCCI inflation,” it said.

“Notably, the PPI for asphalt showed a 20.5 percent increase during 2023 Q2 after showing a 22.2 percent decrease during 2023 Q1.”

Other construction-related PPI such as materials, concrete products and fabricated structural metal showed modest inflation between 0-2 percent.

“The asphalt price volatility

combined with relatively stable prices for other material may partially explain why the NHCCI continues to outpace the PPI.” The Real Numbers, Crunched The Eno Center noted that when FHWA released its latest cost index, it had to admit construction inflation had not slowed.

In fact, the transportation think tank said, the cost of building highways increased by 3.8 percent in the second quarter of 2023. That figure is equivalent to a 15.3 percent annual inflation rate, said the policy organization.

“This shows that, even though inflation had lessened elsewhere in the economy by that point, it was not yet done with highway construction.”

FHWA tracks construction costs quarterly through the NHCC index. In mid-2021, according to Eno, the index began growing rapidly. It peaked in the April-June 2022 quarter, and had a “temporary respite” in the fourth quarter of

Other construction-related materials, such as materials, concrete products and fabricated structural metal, are more expensive to purchase for construction projects.

2022, after which acceleration began once more.

“Since the end of 2020, the NHCCI says that highway construction costs have increased by 59.3 percent,” reported the Eno Center.

The organization is not surprised by the fact that the largest share of

the increase was from rises in the cost of asphalt, dictated by the price of petroleum.

“But the second-largest cause of the quarterly increase was from traffic control, which is particularly labor-intensive,” said Eno policy analysts.

FHWA concluded that while it’s

suggested labor costs are a driving factor in NHCCI inflation, the “relatively low and stable inflation” proves inconsistent “The disparities in growth among the indices underline that each index’s sensitivity to broader events varies,” said the federal agency.

Those factors include COVID19 pandemic, supply chain disruptions, material shortages, and oil price swings, FHWA added.

“New FHWA spending obligations in fiscal years 2021, 2022 and the first three quarters of 2023 totaled $152 billion,” noted Eno. The organization suggests rebasing highway construction costs the last quarter of 2020, then deflate everything after that.

The result is that $152 million in new obligations deflates to a “real” total of $116 billion, according to the Eno Center.

The think tank figures that $35.2 billion in real buying power of the IIJA and regular funding has been lost to highway construction cost inflation since then.  CEG

Electric Mining Truck...

GM, Komatsu Collaborate to Develop Hydrogen Fuel Cell-Powered 930E General Motors and Komatsu will co-develop a hydrogen fuel cell power module for Komatsu’s 930E electric drive mining truck, the world’s best-selling ultra-class haul truck.

GM, a leader in hydrogen fuel cell technology, and Komatsu, a global manufacturer of mining and construction equipment, will jointly design and validate the technology.

Lightweight and quick to refuel, hydrogen fuel cells are ideal for electrifying applications traditionally powered by diesel engines. Hydrogen provides an effective method to package large quantities of energy onboard the vehicle, without compromising payload carrying capacity.

Additionally, fuel cells provide an excellent zero tailpipe emissions solution for vehicles with extreme hauling requirements, like the Komatsu 930E mining truck, with its nominal payload of 320 tons. These vehicles typically operate at a single mine throughout their life, which simplifies the challenges of sizing and deploying an effective hydrogen refueling infrastructure to service the vehicle fleet.

“At GM, we believe fuel cells can play an integral role in a zero-emissions future, helping to electrify heavier-duty applications, beyond passenger vehicles,” said Charlie Freese, executive director of GM’s Global HYDROTEC business.

“Mining trucks are among the largest, most capable vehicles used in any industry, and we believe hydrogen fuel cells are best suited to deliver zero emissions propulsion to these demanding applications.”

Komatsu’s fuel cell-powered mining trucks will provide an additional pathway for decarbonization beyond batterytrolley or battery-static charging solutions, without the need for additional charging infrastructure within mines.

Komatsu has set a target of reducing its global emissions by 50 percent by 2030 and a challenge target of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. The plans for achieving these goals include reducing and eliminating emissions within t h e

company’s product offerings, as well as in the company’s facilities and production of its products. Komatsu also works closely with its customers on reducing and eliminating emissions during product use through optimization programs supported by Komatsu technology and service solutions.

GM’s target is to be fully carbon neutral in both products and operations by 2040.

“Finding new ways to power the equipment our customers need to do the vital work of mining and construction is a critical part of our commitment to supporting a more sustainable future,” said Dan Funcannon, vice president of North America engineering and development for Komatsu.

“This is essential work that requires cross-industry collaboration, and we are excited to be working with GM on this important solution for a haulage offering without tailpipe emissions.”

GM and Komatsu intend to test the first prototype HYDROTEC-powered mining vehicle in the mid-2020s at Komatsu’s Arizona Proving Grounds (AZPG) research and development facility. This vehicle will be powered by over 2 megawatts of HYDROTEC power cubes.

GM has been conducting fuel cell research and product development for more than 50 years and is one of the only companies with advanced, homegrown technology platforms for both lithium-ion batteries and hydrogen fuel cells.

GM and Komatsu believe these complimentary technologies can help spur the adoption of lower-emission mobility solutions and help other industries beyond passenger vehicles meet their sustainability goals.

Deanco Auction Holds Multi-Day Sale in Headland, Ala.

D

eanco Auction kicked off its 2024 multi-day auctioning at its Headland (Dothan) Ala., location on Jan. 25 and 26, 2024.

A big crowd from all over the Southeast came out to bid on a vast array of machines, attachments, farm equipment and much more. A robust online bidding presence also kept the bidding at a frenzied pace.

The next big Deanco auction is scheduled for the Philadelphia, Miss., location on March 27 and 28, 2024.  CEG

(All photographs in this article are Copyright 2024 Construction Equipment Guide. All Rights Reserved.)

At 8 a.m. on day one of the sale, a huge crowd had already assembled as auctioning of the miscellaneous items began in Ring 1.

Checking out the Kubota compact track loaders about to be sold (L-R) are Elmer Lingenfelter of Elmer Links Earthworks, Crestview, Fla.; and Thomas Watkins and Mike Bair of Watree Construction and Land Developing, Ft. Walton Beach, Fla.

Deanco Auction’s Donnie Dean (R) gives a warm welcome to old friend and customer Darril Blocker of nearby Newton, Ala. A great lineup of trucks was auctioned off on day one, including a selection of countyowned 2023 Kenworth T880 dump trucks.

New compact “mini landscape machines” are popping up at just about any auction and have become hot sellers.

Test operating several material handlers for their resale inventory are Todd Ellis (L) and Jason Berry of Northside Equipment Sales, Arab, Ala.

Farmers out looking for bargains on mini-excavators included Miles Langford (L) of Miles Langford Farms, Trenton, Fla., and Ryan Anderson of Ryan Anderson Farms, Chiefland, Fla.

Troy Smith of Douglas Equipment and Supply Company, based in York, Pa., came south to scout out some paving equipment, including a few Hamm compactors about to go on the auction block.

Test operating one of the stars of the show — a 2023 Cat 279D3 compact track loader with only six hours on the meter — are Walt Hallman (L) and Lonnie Washington of WG Miracle Land Development, Vernon, Fla.
