By Lucy Perry CEG CORRESPONDENT

The construction industry remains wide open and inviting for just about anyone seriously considering a rewarding career opportunity. The jobs are plentiful and employers are hot to hire committed workers. In fact, contractors are working hard to come up with new and inventive ways to attract and retain young skilled workers not only in the field but in the office. That’s encouraging news for those charting a career path.

Competition for skilled trades workers is at an all-time high, said staffing firm Skinner Construction Services. see JOBS page 31

Electricians are in demand on practically every building construction project, but these trade workers are key to charging station and transmission line installs and maintenance.

USACE Seeks Bids to Complete $954.4M Chickamauga Lock The new and bigger lock being built at the Chickamauga Dam in Chattanooga is designed to expedite the flow of barge traffic on the Tennessee River but building the replacement chamber has proven to be anything but expeditious for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), the facility’s operator.

The Chattanooga Times Free Press reported May 11 that after more than two decades of development, construction and cost overruns that have more than tripled the original projected cost, the USACE is preparing to award what it said will be the last major contract for what has become Chattanooga’s longest construction project.

The largest congressional earmark in 2024 was added to the federal budget to pay for the final $237 million of work to build the upstream approach walls and finish other elements in and around the new and bigger lock.

“This lock, as part of the nation’s inland waterway system, is critical for providing safe, reliable, efficient and environmentally sustainable waterborne transportation for the movement of commercial goods for national security needs and for recreation,” Lt. Col. Robert Green, commander of USACE’s Nashville District, noted in a news release. “There is a need to reinvest in our aging inland navigation infrastructure, and we are thankful to our elected officials and partners for the strong push to fund this final milestone.”

Joseph Cotton, a captain with the USACE, and project manager of the new Chickamauga lock, told the Chattanooga news source that nine construction companies have expressed interest in bidding on the contract to complete the lock.

He expects to begin receiving proposals in June before awarding a contract for the final approach wall and other work later this year in time to have the new lock built by 2026.

However, the entire project, including the closing of the existing, smaller lock and reclaiming the property around the dam with the addition of a new section of the Tennessee riverwalk, is not expected to be finished until 2029, Cotton said.

“During construction, [the] safety of our contractors, followed by mitigating impacts to navigation, are our top priorities,” he noted, adding, “Throughout this contract, the old lock will remain in operation until the new lock is open for public use, so no outages are expected.”

Delays, Cost Overruns Have Plagued Construction Several factors have delayed the lock’s construction, putting it years behind to open it for river traffic.

The USACE previously projected the new Chickamauga lock had enough funding and would likely be in operation by now.

President Biden did not request additional funding for the lock in 2023, but the federal agency told the Chattanooga newspaper that extra costs caused by COVID-19, material inflation, tight labor markets and supply delivery problems boosted the total cost of the project from the previous $757 million completion cost to the new total cost of

was unable to complete the work within the original timetable, Shimmick asked the USACE for another $96.3 million and 590 days to finish the job.

According to the Times Free Press, the contractor has had as many as 450 workers on site excavating the riverbed and building the downstream approach walls with concrete transported to the new lock chamber via a conveyor belt from Shimmick’s cement batch plant along Access Road.

$954.4 million.

Even with the higher price tag for the lock, Cotton said it will deliver at least as much economic value for the region as what it cost to build the lock.

Oakland, Calif.-based Shimmick Construction is the prime contractor behind the new lock chamber below the Chickamauga Dam. When the company

The effort also is aided by two of the biggest construction cranes anywhere in the country, the news source added.

At the same time, on the upstream side of the dam, C. J. Mahan Construction, from Grove City, Ohio, is working to build a new approach wall above the barrier.

The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), which was created in 1933 to harness the

power and navigation of the Tennessee River, originally built the Chickamauga Dam and Lock using nearby rock aggregate that has since developed structural problems, forcing prolonged maintenance outages and expensive repairs to the lock.

The dam remains a TVA project today, but the lock is maintained and operated by the USACE and is funded with both congressional appropriations and proceeds from diesel taxes paid by river barges on America’s inland waterways.

New Lock to Keep River Commerce Flowing Congress first authorized the current lock project in 2003 after the USACE requested a larger, 110-ft.-by-600-ft. replacement lock to allow up to nine barges at a time to pass through the Chickamauga Dam. By contrast, the existing 60-ft.-by-360-ft. lock allows only one barge through at a time.

“The bigger lock at Chickamauga will align with the size of other locks downstream on the Tennessee River and help the shipment of many goods along this important inland waterway,” Tracy Zea, president and CEO of the Waterways Council Inc., said in a telephone interview with the Times Free Press.

U.S. Representative Chuck Fleischmann, R-Tenn. 3rd District, and chair of the energy and water appropriations panel that helps fund the USACE, pushed for the extra $237 million to finish the lock after he was approached last year by Corps’ officials who said more funds were needed.

The USACE had not previously requested such funding, but after learning of the latest problems with the project, Fleischmann used congressional earmarks to include the work in his overall energy and water appropriations package.

Fleischmann told the Times Free Press that he was surprised by the amount of extra funding needed to finish building the lock but recognized the need to maintain river navigation on the 318 mi. of navigable river upstream from Chattanooga and to ensure that goods and products can be delivered to major industrial users as well as for national security and energy needs at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the Watts Bar Nuclear Plant in East Tennessee.

About 1 million tons of freight a year is moved through the Chickamauga lock, and a modern chamber is projected to reduce commercial transit times by 80 percent. The facility also is the most active lock on the Tennessee River for recreational vessels, with more than 3,500 vessel lockages annually.

The USACE also projects the lock will help keep up to 150,000 trucks off nearby Interstate 75. 

Georgia’s Dustcom Limited Perseveres to Become Prosperous

By Eric Olson CEG CONTRIBUTING EDITOR

When the Great Recession swept across the United States in 2008, it destroyed or damaged countless businesses in its wake. Construction companies, too, were not immune to economic disaster, no matter the size of their operations.

As might be expected, smaller family-operated companies took the brunt of the damage, and, of that group, the outfits that managed to not only stay open, survive and prosper were the ones that found creative ways to pull themselves through the crisis.

A perfect example is Dustcom Limited, a contractor in the Savannah, Ga., suburb of Garden City, specializing in excavation, utility installation and site preparation for residential developments.

Today, Dustcom is recognized as a top provider of these services to several notable homebuilding companies in Georgia, South Carolina and Florida, including D.R. Horton, Beazer Homes USA, Pulte Homes and Smith Family Homes, the latter of which is one of the Savannah area’s largest builders.

In addition, Dusty Williams, the owner and operator of Dustcom, said he and his team also are in the process of establishing relationships with other residential companies, including Mungo Homes, Ryan Homes and Lennar.

“Typically, we handle sites from 30 to 70 acres in size,” he said. “We also do some commercial projects and perform some of the utility work needed for municipal roadwork. I subcontract the curb-and-gutter work and the asphalt, but other than that, we self-perform every other piece of the site preparation work, including all clearing, erosion control, utility work, mass excavation and grading.”

Earlier this spring, Williams noted that Dustcom had approximately 10 different projects running at one time — all within a 50-mi. radius of its southeast Georgia headquarters.

(L-R) are Dusty, Sue and Johnny Williams, all of Dustcom Limited.

Keeping projects running smoothly are Matt Campbell (L) and Brian Moore, both superintendents on the Waterside at Rice Hope project.

Older Company Reborn as Dustcom Limited Years before the recession, Dustcom was incorporated in 1997 as a relatively small offshoot of a larger company called Dixie Contracting, operated by Dusty’s father, Johnny Williams, since 1983. In the beginning, Dixie was a utility-only business, and it remained that way until approximately 20 years ago.

“When my dad’s Dixie Contracting customers told him that they didn’t want to deal with both a utility contractor, and then a grading contractor, he decided to put everything under one umbrella,” Williams said. “So, he came to me and said, ‘Hey, what do you think about doing your own grading?’ I had never run a motor grader and had rarely operated a bulldozer, but he bought me one of each as well as the latest GPS equipment at the time from Topcon. He literally handed all that stuff to me and said, ‘Now, go figure it out.’”

Dustcom was originally started as a business to allow the teenaged Dusty Williams to operate a wet-tap machine to drill into a water line.

“At the time, it was a $25,000 to $30,000 machine with a gasoline-powered hydraulic motor,” he said. “I would charge $600 to $700 apiece for jobs in places like Dublin, Macon, Brunswick and Pooler — all in Georgia — as well as Bluffton and Hilton Head in South Carolina.”

As the recession progressed, the Williams family had to take its lumps like nearly all U.S. small business owners and figure out a creative way of keeping their lights on.

“Everyone was sent scrambling, but we were able to be rebuilt even better and continue the family atmosphere and culture that makes people want to be part of our group,” he said. “That led us to start operating Dustcom full time in 2011.

“So, that little company that drilled holes in water lines when Dixie Excavating was irreparably damaged was what eventually saved us,” Williams added. “We knew we had to start over, and soon we realized Dustcom was who we were now.” see DUSTCOM page 26

Virginia DOT Finishes Widening Project in Washington County When the work zone barrels were removed May 8 along U.S. Highway 58 in Washington County, Va., a major milestone in the effort to widen the route between the towns of Abingdon and Damascus was finally achieved.

The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) and its partner Kanawha Stone Co., a contractor from Poca, W. Va., finished the project before embarking on cleanup and finishing work that should only take a couple more weeks, the state agency noted.

The completed work also included relocating a portion of U.S. 58 and constructing two new bridges over the South Fork Holston River in Washington County. The new structures are located just to the north of the old bridge.

Beginning in the late fall of 2021, crews from VDOT and Kanawha Stone first got under way on the 3.3-mi. widening effort, stretching from just east of Va. Highway 708/Bethel Road to 0.2-mi. east of Va. 858/Hollyfield Road near Damascus in the state’s southwestern corner.

“This milestone means opening the gateway to Damascus and its natural beauty and recreational opportunities,” VDOT Bristol District Engineer Tabitha Crowder, said in an agency statement. “We also wish to thank those who drive the corridor daily for their patience during this effort.”

Additionally, VDOT worked with the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources (DWR) and the state’s Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) to permanently establish a South Fork Holston River access point for kayaks and canoes, located adjacent to the former U.S. 58 bridge that crossed the scenic mountain waterway.

A temporary construction access road used by VDOT to remove the old bridge was left in place so that DWR, which will manage the site, can upgrade the road to include vehicle parking and river access for the public.

Long, Winding Road to Completion Lasting more than 20 years, the endeavor to widen U.S. 58 through the Watauga Valley between Abingdon and Damascus now provides a modern and safe four-lane highway along a highly traveled area for both recreational and commuter traffic.

The construction along U.S. 58 in the area began near Abingdon in 2003, and was built in four phases, each one longer than the last. The first three encompassed: • Phase I, which saw the construction of 1.1 mi. of roadway from just east of U.S. Highway 11 to west of Watauga Road before its completion in Spring 2006.

• Phase II picked up from there and stretched over 1.8 mi. to a point east of Va. 638. It opened for traffic in the fall of 2012.

• Phase III was 2.6 mi. in length and had crews working on site until the summer of 2015 from just east of Va. 638 to near Va. 708/Bethel Road.

The entire widening of U.S. 58 between Abingdon and Damascus was roughly 9 mi. long and cost approximately $120 million, according to VDOT. 

Thompson Tractor Hosts Next Gen Cat CTL Demo in Montgomery, Ala.

T

hompson Tractor held a demo event May 9, 2024, at its Montgomery, Ala., location.

(L-R): Getting an early morning start to operate the next gen Cat CTLs are Derick Freeman, Thompson Tractor-Opelika, Ala., and John Barron and Blake Lomenick of Bailey-Harris Construction Co., Auburn, Ala. Bailey-Harris was the GC on the all-new Thompson Rents Hanceville, Ala., location that recently opened.

Thompson Tractor’s Jackson Callaway (L) and Cat customer Robbie Frazier of Frazier Land Works, Opelika, Ala., discuss some of the used machines at the demo site.

The event introduced customers and prospects to the next generation Caterpillar 255 and 265 compact track loaders.

The demo was combined with a used equipment red-tag sale, which included more than 90 machines and many new and used attachments.

Cat representatives, as well as Thompson Tractor machine specialists, showcased the new machines and provided a catered lunch for its guests.

Cole Davis of Southern Dirt, Harpersville, Ala., said both the 255 and 265 were quite impressive. He said that he was able to pick up two blocks weighing a total of 4,500 lbs. and was able to efficiently hold it over the cab while operating the machine.

“The overall lift height and weight capacity of these machines is far better than anything else we’ve tried,” he added.

Jim Clark, Clark Brothers Construction, Wetumpka, Ala., said, “It’s very capable and has a lot of great features built in that I can utilize and benefit from in my operations. The lift was great, it rides smoothly with a load and it’s really com-

Carolina Cat Welcomes Guests to Its Officials in Statesville, New, Improved Asheville, N.C., Store N.C., Break Ground On Airport Terminal

Carolina Cat welcomes customers in Asheville, N.C.

Officials in Statesville, N.C., held a groundbreaking ceremony May 8 to mark the beginning of construction of a new terminal for the city’s regional airport. Elected leaders and city staff were among those on hand for the kickoff event.

Statesville is located approximately 41 mi. north of Charlotte in the state’s western Piedmont region.

The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) awarded the city a grant to help cover the price tag for the new three-story facility, which will cost about $12.5 million.

In speaking with the Iredell Free News, airport Manager John Ferguson said that the project was the “embodiment” of perseverance.

He explained that Statesville’s airport has helped the city land several industries over the years, including Cheney Brothers, Sherwin-Williams, Ashley Furniture, Briggs and Stratton, and Kohler.

Statesville Mayor Costi Kutteh agreed.

“This airport is an 80-year overnight success,” he said.

“Over the past [eight decades], this airport has received $60 million in federal, state and local support.”

State Sen. Vickie Sawyer and her N.C. House colleague Rep. Jeffrey McNeely, both of whom are Republicans representing the Statesville-Iredell County area, were instrumental in securing the state grant for the new terminal.

Sawyer said advocating funds for Statesville Regional Airport is important, adding, “It’s in our DNA in Raleigh to invest.”

McNeely also shared his aspirations for the airport with the local online news source.

“We’re talking to Elizabeth City State University to bring their flight school here,” he told the Free News. “We could be the aviation hub of Western North Carolina or for the whole state. This can change generations for this part of the world.”

C

arolina Cat recently welcomed more than 200 customers to its Asheville, N.C., location for a re-introduction to the company’s newly improved storefront.

Guests were greeted by the entire Carolina Cat and Carolina Cat Rental Store community and enjoyed an afternoon of branch tours and complimentary lunch.

Carolina Cat has been a cornerstone in western North Carolina for nearly a century. In addition to markets in both the Greensboro and Charlotte areas, the company has served customers in Asheville since the 1930s.

According to Carolina Cat, it remains committed to supporting customers with new, used, rental and power generation equipment needs throughout western North Carolina.  (All photos courtesy of Carolina Cat.)

Attendees had the opportunity to meet with vendors during the event.

All customers attending the event could do some operator training in the simulator.

Carolina Cat recently welcomed customers to its Asheville, N.C., location for a re-introduction to the company’s newly improved storefront.

Guests register for the event.

Alongside equipment offerings, Carolina Cat provides equipment service, a vast parts inventory, construction technology solutions, fleet management services and operator training and more.

Airport Offers Additional Transportation Advantages Statesville Regional Airport (KSVH) is a general aviation facility owned by the city, which has approximately 30,000 residents.

Its 7,003-ft. runway and full parallel taxiway can handle all sizes of corporate aircraft. The airport provides corporate aviation facilities for Fortune 500 companies as well as several NASCAR motor sports teams.

Additionally, several aviation parts and equipment manufacturers make their home in the region. KSVH is now home to Jet East Gama, a national company and one of the largest maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) providers in the United States.

The airport’s proximity to a pair of major interstate highways, I-40 and I-77, which intersect northeast of the downtown area, gives Statesville outstanding transportation advantages. In addition, each one provides direct access to other important U.S. highways.

For instance, I-40 Eastbound connects with I-85 in Greensboro, N.C., which, in turn, takes drivers north to I-95 in Petersburg, Va. Travelers on I-77 Northbound can reach I81 near Wytheville in southwestern Virginia, while southbound I-77 intersects with I-20 in Columbia, S.C. 

For years, Volvo CE has been developing innovative services that improve customer uptime, productivity and safety. These include ActiveCare Direct advanced telematics, Assist machine control systems and productivity services like Connected Map, Task Manager and Connected Load Out. “Volvo CE recognizes that services are growing to be just as important to fleets as their machines, and our investment in VizaLogix extends our commitment,” Young said. “It’s by combining the right machine with the right services that users get the best solution for their unique needs.”

Dustcom Specializes in Excavation, Utility Installation DUSTCOM from page 12

In the early days, when he spent time becoming proficient in operating various machines, Williams also trained other ambitious employees how to take over that part of the business once he took on other duties.

He added that since then, he has been blessed to be able to attract people to Dustcom that want to work, succeed and buy into its culture.

ASCENDUM Extends Williams Helping Hand As it turned out, one of the more critical moves that the reconstituted contracting firm made was turning to ASCENDUM Machinery, the Huntersville, N.C.-based dealership — specialists in Volvo Construction Equipment (CE) — to lease Dustcom the equipment it would need to successfully complete its projects.

Williams said that ASCENDUM, through its branch office near Savannah, was the first distributor after the recession to give him the financial credit that he needed to start rebuilding and growing Dustcom.

That lifeline was just the boost that Dustcom needed.

“They had flex lease programs that were amazing, were short-term and had great value,” he said. “We were damaged goods financially as a result of the recession, like everyone else, so I was humbled by the fact that they gave me the opportunity first over everyone else. I decided at that point that they were my guys.”

Williams now has his own fleet maintenance director in Will Mallard to handle all new equipment purchases and leasing through ASCENDUM. “He is the guy that gets phone calls and deals directly with ASCENDUM,” he said. “And they have done a very good job of taking care of our needs when they arise. I am also very happy with the Volvo CE machines we use.”

Recent Restructuring Improves DustcomÊs Operation Williams said he has always prided himself on being a very hands-on owner.

In 2023, though, he realized that to keep all facets of the company running smoothly, he needed to put more structure in place “where I am not the center of the universe here to

(L-R) are Sue, Johnny and Dusty Williams and Timmons Herring, all of Dustcom Limited.

everyone at all times.”

For instance, he enjoyed identifying employees who were skilled in a particular area, such as site clearing and connecting them with customers that needed that type of work done.

“As I find people who show drive and initiative, I don’t hold them down and make them just stay as a laborer or as an operator,” Williams said. “If someone shows me they can run a job or can lead other people, I will make them a supervisor. We do a lot of promotion from within and if they display initiative, I am going to capitalize on that by putting them in a position to make our company bigger and better.”

In that respect, he ran Dustcom the same way his father operated his contracting company 40 years ago, Williams said.

But, in 2023, Williams discovered that Dustcom, while still growing, would be better off if he relinquished some of his duties as the decider about every aspect of the business.

“At the end of last year, we enlisted the help of a management consulting service to assist us in putting a more effective structure in place,” he said. “And that has been an amazing journey.”

Williams freely admitted that at times, though, he was not always happy about hearing that he needed to loosen the reins at Dustcom.

“I don’t sit in this office very often; rather, I prefer to be out on that job site. But for about 11 weeks I was here for 10 hours every single day working and talking with consultants and saying things like, ‘What do you mean I need a general manager? Wait, a what? An operations officer? I need to do all of that! This is my business!’

“But they broke me down and told me that I could not continue to do everything well all by myself,” he said.

The consultants also helped Williams surround himself with other talented people from the Savannah market to assist in making key decisions.

“My general manager, Jeff Andrews, came from what is now APAC-Atlantic,” he said. “Plus, we have put project managers in place, and our new operations manager, Timmons Herring, had been a superintendent for me for about three years.

“As of the first day of January, we have the proper structure, we have order and we tell our people, ‘This is your job, this is your role, and these are your responsibilities,’” Williams said. “We are holding it all together now with a structure of managers and operations officers that do their jobs better than I did. They assist me greatly and are highly valued.”

At Andrews’ suggestion, the contracting firm moved some of its long-time veterans out of their supervisor positions and into superintendent roles because they had proven themselves to be so well-versed in their trades.

The turnaround in gross sales and in customer satisfaction at Dustcom since the changes were implemented, Williams marveled, has far surpassed his expectations.

“We saw the results in less than 90 days,” he said. “It has been nothing short of amazing and made me ask myself why I didn’t do this five years ago.”  CEG (All photographs in this article are Copyright 2024 Construction Equipment Guide. All Rights Reserved.)

Volvo Drives ‘Toward Zero’ By Fueling New Trucks With HVO Volvo Trucks North America has announced a significant advancement in its sustainability efforts by fueling newly assembled trucks with Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO), a renewable fuel, as they depart from the Volvo Trucks New River Valley Assembly Operations (NRV) in Dublin, Va. All Volvo trucks for the North American market are produced at the NRV plant, including the all-new Volvo VNL that will begin production later this summer. This initiative is part of Volvo Trucks’ broader strategy to decarbonize the industry through a three-pillar approach: enhancing internal combustion engine (ICE) efficiency and drop-in renewable fuels to make the largest immediate emissions reductions while continuing to scale the Class 8 Volvo VNR Electric and developing hydrogen fuel cell trucks.

“Today and for the foreseeable future there will not be a one-size fits all approach to decarbonizing transportation,” said Peter Voorhoeve, president, Volvo Trucks North America. “That is why, at Volvo Trucks, we are focused on the three-pillar strategy with battery electric, hydrogen fuel cell and renewable fuels in the internal combustion engine.

“With the all-new Volvo VNL and by utilizing HVO, we can make the most substantial and immediate impact today. There is a future for the ICE and we’re happy to be doing all factory fills with renewable fuel, an important step towards walking the talk in our sustainability journey.”

HVO is a renewable fuel that can be used in the same engine as fossil-based diesel without requiring engine modifications.

Produced from renewable sources such as waste vegetable oils and animal fats, HVO has the same chemical structure as fossil-

Volvo Trucks is fueling new trucks leaving the NRV plant with 20 to 25 gal. of HVO per tank, with full tanks provided for trucks destined directly to customers. This initiative is expected to replace 1,125,000 gal. of fossil-based diesel annually, achieving an estimated 75 to 85 percent reduction in CO2 emissions for Volvo Trucks’ operations in North America.

With increasing demand from shippers for sustainable transport options, HVO offers Volvo Trucks’ customers a viable solution to meet these challenges today.

Construction Ranks Among Three Most In-Demand Jobs JOBS from page 1

Contractors are devoting a lot of time to exploring new ways to hire. Some are boosting compensation, others investing in professional development.

“Construction workers in this landscape are empowered to select employers who support their career growth and align with their values,” blogged Skinner.

Career Minus Diploma What’s considered the hottest construction job titles these days depends on who produces the list.

What’s consistent is the fact that the highest paying in-demand jobs don’t require a college degree. For young job seekers, that opens more doors to strong career choices and is why the job security that skilled labor currently offers is so attractive.

Continuing labor shortages worsened by disruptions from the COVID pandemic, have created more competition for talent, said McKinsey & Co. Add to that the fact that more construction workers are retiring each year and the industry is constantly working to attract young people to fill their places. As a result, wages for skilled trade jobs have risen by more than 20 percent since the first quarter of 2020,

noted the global management consultant.

“Demand for skilled tradespeople is expected to increase over the next decade and remain high in the U.S.,” said McKinsey.

The consulting firm attributes this to infrastructure needs, a surge in real estate redevelopment and investments in renewable energy.

Construction is among the three most indemand job fields that companies are hiring Adobe stock photo

New infrastructure calls for ironworkers. Federal funding is driving the growth of transportation, bridge and highway projects, increasing the need for skilled ironworkers.

for this year. In the mix are manufacturing and plumbing.

Specific titles Payscale and ZipRecruiter shared with CNBC include construction superintendent, production manager and journeyman plumber.

ZipRecruiter tracked a 16-percent increase in all of these jobs between October 2023 and March 2024.

Construction superintendents have seen the largest uptick in demand, with openings

surging more than 128 percent, according to the CNBC report.

The survey found other high-paying trade jobs that have seen slightly less demand, “but are still hiring at a good clip, include fleet managers.”

Construction careers, prioritizing skills over degrees, offer some the best chances to earn six figures without a college degree, said Payscale’s Ruth Thomas.

Though more companies are dropping degree requirements, skills-based hiring has still not become common practice across all industries, she added.

Jonathan Jones of Construction Coverage said despite inflation, high interest rates and recession fears, the outlook for construction is bright.

The construction software developer noted a recent AIA report that a 4-percent growth in non-residential construction is expected this year.

That follows an already impressive 22percent hike in 2023. Job growth in construction will be steady into the future, said Jones.

“High demand for construction across the board has helped boost the industry over the past three years,” he said. see JOBS page 32

Demand for Skilled Tradespeople to Rise Over Next Decade JOBS from page 31

That demand could help construction companies weather a potential recession, Jones said, noting the fed has invested heavily in infrastructure.

The series of COVID relief packages in 2020 and 2021 sent billions of dollars flowing to the industry, as well.

But the fed investment centerpiece is the IIJA, funding major new transportation construction projects and driving labor demands, noted Jones.

Plus, the construction industry bypassed the pandemic layoff hits that many other industries saw. So, it recovered jobs more quickly, said Jones.

“Construction employment had a strong bounce-back after lockdowns and other restrictions began to ease in the late spring of 2020,” he said.

And the market has only continued to grow since. In fact, construction hiring passed pre-COVID levels three months before the economy as a whole.

Future Is for Skills Jones predicts industry technological changes will streamline many processes, in turn changing the composition of jobs in the industry.

“As the industry modernizes, many professions set for the greatest rate of growth are in fact jobs not commonly associated with construction,” he blogged.

Demand for construction market research analysts, software developers, logisticians and financial managers is projected to be robust in the coming years.

“But construction industry jobs with the greatest projected growth rates are related to renewable energy, including wind and solar,” added Jones Skilled trade workers “are striking gold in the job market” said job placement firm Skinner in a spring report. The company attributes the strong job market to singlefamily housing and industrial construction which are currently in high demand.

“Trillion-dollar public infrastructure projects are taking shape,” said Skinner, also crediting an expected “historic” boom in the remodeling market.

“These days, it seems like every industry needs tradespeople — and as the skills gap grows, pay may rise as fast as competition.”

The company believes trade workers are experiencing some of the fastest growing wages in the country. As a result, contractors are strategizing to recruit high-demand workers, said Skinner, “especially if a tight-

ening budget is a concern.”

Skilled trade workers can take this time to shift into much-needed roles, the company advised. This are the firm’s top in-demand construction jobs: • Electricians “Electricians are needed for practically every building construction project — but that’s far from where the demand ends,” said the company.

As the United States goes green, trade workers will be key hires for charging station and transmission line installs.

Maintenance brings demand as well.

“We’re also seeing ongoing demand for low-voltage technicians, driven by new fiber optic networks, alarm systems, rewiring projects and other work.”

Skinner believes that’s why the BLS expects the electrician job outlook to grow much faster than average through 2032.

• Pipefitters Industrial development is driving demand for pipefitters, said Skinner, as semiconductor businesses and automakers build facilities.

Predicted resurgences of oil and gas production could boost demand even further, believes Skinner.

“We’re already seeing pipefitter salaries

exceed what electricians make, and turnover and retirements will increase job openings and pay in the U.S.” • Ironworkers Where there’s new infrastructure, there will be ironworkers. These professionals “are expected to thrive in the coming years,” said Skinner.

Federal funding is driving the growth of transportation, bridge and highway projects, further ramping up ironworker hiring, the firm noted.

• Masonry Workers “You may have heard masonry is a dying trade, but demand for this traditional skill isn’t going away,” said Skinner.

Bricklayers, stonemasons and other mason workers — crucial for building fences, walls, walkways and more — are still in short supply.

Simply put, schools and companies still struggle to build interest in masonry among the next generation of workers, said the firm.

“The aging workforce, as well as the growing number of masons switching careers, will keep the number of these skilled trade positions high.”

Citing the AGC, Skinner noted that bricklayers and cement masons are the most difsee JOBS page 62

Concrete Pile Foundations Complete On Cado Bridge Project CADO from page 1

old bridge dictated its closure early in the project.

“The decision was made with the safety of the traveling public at the forefront. Once the old bridge was closed, it was removed, as construction continued on the new structure, which is being built on a slightly adjusted alignment. This also allowed work to be expedited, and came with a significant cost savings, as there was no longer a need to maintain traffic control for motorists through the work zone.”

The new structure is a precast prestressed concrete girder span bridge with precast concrete piles. The length measures 2,050 ft. and the width is 40 ft. of clear roadway.

Jensen Construction Co., based out of Des Moines, Iowa, is overseeing the project. Jensen is a heavy highway contractor with an emphasis on bridge construction. Work on the $17.2 million project began in September 2021.

Early work for crews included clearing and grubbing, and a lengthy utility relocation. A total of 300 days was allotted for relocation of electrical utilities within the project limit.

Buchanan said construction is progressing well, with roughly 70 percent of the work finished.

“This project has been in some phase of development for about 17 years, so to be at the point of wrapping up construction on a new structure to serve the community is extremely exciting. Funding for infrastructure projects is limited and must be prioritized across the state with a strategic use of those dollars.

“Louisiana has more than 12,000 bridges, most of which are located on state highways, and many of which are aging.

This new Caddo Lake Bridge will serve the needs of the communities along LA 1 for many years to come.”

Buchanan noted that LA 1 is the longest numbered highway in Louisiana and remains one of the primary northsouth corridors that stretches across the entire state.

“It runs through hundreds of cities and towns, and despite the construction of Interstate 49 through this area, is still heavily used for both daily commutes and those who are traveling through.

“This project is critical, because this bridge is one of only two that cross Caddo Lake, which is extremely large and

stretches into Texas. The other is a short bridge on LA 538, to the west of LA 1.”

During construction, motorists are being detoured using LA 538 if their destination is through the town of Mooringsport. I-49 is the other viable alternate route.

According to Buchanan, with all concrete pile foundations now in place, crews feel a sense of accomplishment.

“It’s difficult to have a bridge without a foundation, and completing the pile driving portion of the construction means we’ve moved that much closer to a finished bridge.

It’s important to mark these milestones for the public as well, so they can understand where we are in the process, and how much there is left to do.” see CADO page 56

Work on the $17.2 million project began in September 2021.

The original structure, accommodating approximately 5,000 vehicles per day, was constructed in 1940, and has served as an important connector between the towns of Mooringsport and Oil City.

Approximately 1,750 cu. yds. of existing material is being excavated for this project, with roughly 12,170 cu. yds. of embankment material being utilized.

Screencore Orbiter Trommels, Stackers Handle Organic Material Processing The Screencore range of Orbiter trommels is available in a variety of sizes, encompassing features making them ideal for landscaping and organic material handling applications.

In addition to the trommels, Screencore has developed a range of stackers equipped with a purpose designed mulch hopper and high-speed auger. These features make them both ideal for composting applications and processing organic materials for reuse in a variety of applications, according to the manufacturer.

Screencore has since its inception used its extensive expertise to develop and introduce a range of modern, mobile crushing, screening, stockpiling and pugmill solutions. The range has in a relatively short period found that its modern productivity and environmentally friendly attributes are highly suited to aggregate production on a truly global scale.

In addition to the processing of virgin rock and the recycling of construction materials, the Screencore Orbiter trommel range and purpose developed stackers, also have proved to be ideal for processing organic materials.

“Screencore continuously engages with our dealers and end-users to innovate and refine our products,” said director Ciarán Ryan. “As a result, we have developed a range of Orbiter trommel screens and stockpilers that are specifically designed for the efficient handling and processing of organic materials. Like all our products, these new additions prioritize ease of transport and user-friendliness, ensuring that they meet the practical needs of our customers while setting new standards in the industry.”

Global Recognition The Screencore trommel and stacker ranges have rapidly gained recognition in both Europe and the United States. In France, an Orbiter 237 trommel, distributed by Screencore’s partner Starloc Auvergne, has been instrumental in processing various organic materials at a specialized site. This model is particularly suited to large-scale operations with its 23 ft. drum length and radial fines stacker. Additionally, the Orbiter 237 features a 18 cu. yd. dump-hopper and is tailored for the largest operators in the industry.

“The [48 in.] wide feed belt connects to a load-sensing drum, ensuring that the machine maximizes productivity autonomously,” said Ryan. “Each element of the Orbiter 237 is specifically designed to ensure continuous operation without the need for constant operator input.”

The Orbiter 125 is designed for work sites where space is at a premium and ideal for a contractor who needs to relocate quickly and often.

Versatile Range, Features The Screencore range of Orbiter trommels consists of three base machines ranging from the powerful yet compact 125, to the 237, which is aimed at the larger producers. The Orbiter 125 is designed for work sites where space is at a premium and ideal for a contractor who needs to relocate quickly and often. The Orbiter 175 delivers high productivity from a compact chassis and features hydraulic folding conveyors and drum angle adjustment with a large infeed hopper and a Cat 130hp engine.

Designed to work on their own, but also designed to work alongside the Orbiter trommels, Screencore stackers have proved ideal for dealing with organic material due to their unique features. Specifically, the option of a high-speed auger in the hopper.

The auger fulfils multiple roles: it conditions material by flipping and rotating allowing the material to separate, aerate and untangle as well regulating the flow of material and preventing material bridging at the loading point. Furthermore, the auger presents material to the drum in such a way as to aid the screening process by ensuring no surging.

Low Cost, Low Emissions Screencore’s stackers also come with power solutions to suit various customer requirements. Now Screencore has added to its flexible cost-effective environmentally friendly range as both the 470 and 480 stockpilers come with an electric motor and can be run attached to the Orbiter trommel.

With this Dual-Power, the screener itself supplies the power to drive the machine. This means that the screening and stockpiling operation is significantly less expensive and more environmentally friendly as only one power source is being used, the manufacturer said.

Furthermore, if the trommel is powered from the mains or a gen-set, or is electric powered for example, then emissions are negligible and operating costs are a fraction of a traditional set-up.

“With their sturdy construction, accurate sizing and penny-pinching running costs, Screencore’s Orbiter and purpose-built stackers have proved on numerous occasions to be the ideal solution for composting and processing organic material. In addition to flexible power solutions, including Dual-Power, we now also offer a complete range of bespoke electric trommel systems for indoor operations,” said Ryan.

Cado Lake Bridge Nears Completion After 17 Years of Development, Planning CADO from page 34

Approximately 1,750 cu. yds. of existing material is being excavated for this project, with roughly 12,170 cu. yds. of embankment material being utilized. Buchanan said the main concern for workers is the site itself, with construction taking place over a lake.

“Because this is in a somewhat rural part of the parish, supplies and materials must be hauled over a long distance to reach the job site.

Other challenges include having to work on barges to drive the concrete piles, install the girders and pour structural concrete for the sub and superstructure.”

Currently, the contractor is working on forming and placing the concrete decks. Completed tasks include all components of the bridge substructure.

Tasks remaining include finishing the concrete deck, installation of barrier rail, necessary earthwork, building the asphalt roadway to tie in to the new bridge and installation of guardrail.

As far as pouring concrete for the bridge deck, said Buchanan, “The contractor will place the metal stay-inplace forms, then they will place and tie the reinforcing steel [which adds strength to the deck], the concrete is then poured, followed by screeding and finishing the concrete.

As with other types of roadway work, construction of the approach slabs for the roadway to tie into the bridge will involve putting in place the base course, forming the slab, placing reinforcing steel with road iron and pouring and finishing the concrete. This assignment, and other tasks, are dependent on a favorable forecast.

“Weather conditions for any project have the potential to impact the progress of work,” said Buchanan. “Historically,

Louisiana’s climate lends to heavy periods of rainfall in the winter and spring months, so these seasons have the capacity to require construction timelines to be adjusted as necessary.

In January 2024, the northern portions of Louisiana were hit with a winter storm that impeded progress on the project for several days.

“In general, it’s not uncommon for construction projects to encounter unforeseen challenges and circumstances.

These can include a variety of factors, such as changes to contractor personnel, difficulties in obtaining necessary supplies and materials and encountering environmental or earthen complications.”

A variety of heavy machinery is being used on the project, which calls for pile driving equipment (hydraulic hammer), a crane, tracked excavators, work barges, a concrete pump truck and ready mix trucks. The contractor also is using precast, prestressed girders and piles, concrete and steel. These are fabricated off site and then transported and erected into place at the job site.

The project’s anticipated completion is this fall.

Buchanan said it will make a tremendous difference to the traveling public.

“LA DOTD considers the methodical replacement of our aging bridge infrastructure to be one of our top priorities, while also managing the limited funding in a manner that is meaningful and strategic for the use of our communities and visitors.”

This project is an example of one that worked its way through several years of the development process, and its status as nearing completion in the next few months is a milestone that should be highlighted and celebrated.  CEG

Many Job Categories Will Be Seeking Workers Due to Technology Advances JOBS from page 32

ficult tradespeople to recruit regionally. Recognizing this, organizations are hosting workshops in hopes of closing the widening skills gap.

“Workers with the skills needed to fill mason positions now can find plenty of lucrative opportunities.”

Construction Coverage used BLS data to form its list of the fastest-growing jobs in the construction industry, across 190-plus occupations.

The list includes: • Market research analysts and marketing specialists “Software companies have transformed the construction industry in recent years by automating processes that used to require hours of manual work.”

The developer said the most noteworthy new products include takeoff, estimating, construction accounting and field service management software.

This job category is expected to see

8 percent growth over the next 10 years, adding 1,300 new workers.

• Electricians The 10-year projected employment growth for electricians is more than 8.5 percent, resulting in a projected employment growth of 46,400 over that period.

• Telecommunications line installers and repairers An employment increase of 9.3 percent over 10 years is expected for line installers and repairers. This will add 2,900 workers to the job field.

• Occupational health and safety specialists The 10-year employment growth forecast is 11.9 percent for health and safety specialists. The job field will grow by 1,900 workers.

• Logisticians Logisticians will see a 10-year projected employment growth of +12.1 percent. The job field will draw 200 workers over that time span.

• Radio, cell and tower installers and

repairers Over a 10-year period this job category is projected to grow by 13.6 percent. It will bring 300 workers into the construction market.

• Solar photovoltaic installers The 10-year projected employment growth for solar installers is 29.0 percent, seeing 4,800 more workers take this job title.

• Wind turbine service technicians Over the next 10 years, the job of wind turbine technician will grow by 50.8 percent, adding 900 more workers over that span.

Skinner said beyond these highdemand positions, the shortage of skilled trade workers across all fields and roles continues.

“Companies that rely on tradespeople need to start stepping up their recruiting efforts and compensation packages.”

In the meantime, said the placement firm, workers can leverage the current market to elevate their careers.  CEG
