Social Media: Inspire the Next Generation TCC-500 Experience Leads to Purchase in Knoxville...8
Plateau Excavation Inc. Hosts 35th Anniversary Celebration...16
Workforce development — two words traveling around the heavy equipment industry like wildfire. Retirements are accelerating and the pool of motivated and qualified people from the next generation is small. Uncertainty is plentiful as executives and managers work to get a grip on the issue and mull over potential solutions. How can we, as an entire industry, attract talent that’s seemingly disappeared? Why aren’t young people interested in our work? Are there any promising solutions? An apparent solution, according to Turner Mining Group of Indiana, is marketing and social media. While marketing has traditionally taken a backseat to moving dirt, Turner Mining Group places it front and center in its effort to recruit the next generation. Most amazingly, this is more than just theory. Its new marketing is working and it has an impressive team of twenty somethings working at operations across the country to prove it.

The economy will boom — or only the rich will get richer! These were the competing political views as U.S. lawmakers sat down last year and thrashed out an overhaul of U.S. tax policy. In January, a new set of tax laws was on the books. Half a year later, while the political back and forth continues, the impact of tax reform on the economy in general and the construction and heavy equipment industries in particular seems generally positive. “To be sure, we will never know conclusively about the role of tax changes on the economy,” J.D. Foster said in May. The senior vice president and chief economist of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce conceded that different perspectives on tax law will persist. “Whether the economy slides into recession or goes on a 10-year run of historic growth, neither tax reform’s opponents nor defenders will be able to prove beyond a doubt whether tax reform made a difference,” said Foster. Nevertheless, he said signs of positive impact
were popping up like springtime greenery. They included contractors and companies who immediately provided bonuses to employees on sheer anticipation of increased revenues. CEOs who began to augment their heavy equipment fleets to take advantage of new depreciation schedules. Money banked overseas being voluntarily repatriated in response to more favorable corporate tax rates. Associated Equipment Manufacturers and Equipment Dealers Association conducted a survey of members, again in May, for insight about the tax law’s impact. The consensus of dealers and manufacturers was that the lower corporate tax rate and quicker equipment depreciation schedules were driving up demand for their products. “We always believed that tax reform would lead to additional investment in construction and mining equipment, and that belief has been confirmed,” said Trey Googe, president and chief operating officer of Yancey Bros., the Georgia company that bills itself as the nation’s oldest Caterpillar dealer. Yancey was one of the companies giving employees a bonus ($500) shortly after passage of
the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. “Although it will take some time for all of the benefits of the tax reform law to fully materialize, there is no doubt that it has positive impacted business confidence and driven economic growth,” said Googe. In Millersville, Md., Reliable Contracting Co. President Jay Baldwin believes the new tax structure “is going to be of great value. One hundred percent depreciation on equipment in year one, things like that make a lot of difference.” In Baldwin’s case, he and his executives so far this year have authorized spending more than $5 million on heavy equipment, including 10 dump trucks, a backhoe, a dozer and a loader. It’s almost too much of a good thing. Baldwin said the company is prepared to invest even more in equipment, but is having trouble finding it. “We can’t get the equipment. Manufacturers can’t make them as fast as we want them,” he said. Reliable Contracting is a $100 million-a-year company still recovering from the collapse of the construction economy 10 years ago. see TAX page 84

Previous TCC-500 Experience Leads to Purchase in Knoxville Charles Blalock & Sons of Sevierville, Tenn., was awarded contract for a portion of a multi-phase $71 million contract to realign and improve 1.69 mi. of SR115/Alcoa Hwy. south of downtown Knoxville, Tenn. One stretch of the new road requires retaining walls be 65 ft. (19.8 m) tall. In order to handle the steep and narrow access roads at the top of the hillside, Blalock & Sons purchased a 50-ton TCC-500 telescopic crawler crane. When the TCC-500 arrived on site, one of the first requirements was climbing a temporary road used by dump trucks and track hoes moving dirt near the face of the soonto-be shored up wall. “Right out of the gate it had to climb to the top of the hill, which was a 30 percent grade. The book said it could go up to 40 percent so we were confident that it would make it up and it did just fine,” said Tim Payne, project superintendent of Charles Blalock & Sons. “We rented the TCC-500 in Chattanooga on a similar project and liked the way it handled the grades on that U.S. 27 project,” Payne said. “When we got this bid, Blalock
& Sons decided to go ahead and buy it from the distributor [Atlantic & Southern].” Aside from the steep terrain, the other time consuming aspect of the project is the granite formation being drilled through in order to build a soldier pile wall for shoring up 112 ft. (34.1 m) deep soldier pile. Once a hole is drilled out, the TCC-500 suspends a 15,000 lb. H-beam in the hole until it can be leveled. Once it is, the hole is pumped with concrete to be held in place. “We’ve really liked having the TCC-500 on this project, it feathers in with the controls nicely whenever we’re handing off cans or whatever we need to pick,” said Payne. The project is scheduled to be completed by November 2019 with the most amount of time reserved for construction of retaining walls. For more information, visit www.linkbelt.com.

Amazon Transportation, Logistics Executive Shares Vision Katie Thomson, a former Obama-administration U.S. Department of Transportation official who now serves as vice president and general counsel for Amazon’s transportation and logistics operations, offered her perspective on some of the future transportation challenges and opportunities facing America during a speech at the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials 2018 Joint Policy Committee meeting in Spokane, Wash., on July 18. “Safe and reliable transportation is the lifeblood of our nation; it is critical to our economic prosperity,” she said. “Wellplanned transportation provides connections to our urban, suburban and rural communities. That includes passenger and freight rail, airplanes, roads, bicycles and pedestrian modes of transport.” The challenges facing the U.S. transportation, however, are coming from different angles and all at once, Thomson said. For example, she pointed to U.S. DOT research conducted in 2017 that found commuters waste one week per year just sitting in traffic. She also highlighted a report by the American Transportation Research Institute that the cost of traffic congestion to commercial trucking operations tops $63 billion.
The challenges facing the U.S. transportation, however, are coming from different angles and all at once, Katie Thomson said.
Thomson also noted that traffic fatalities have sharply increased over the last several years, while the quality of U.S. transportation infrastructure continues to decline.
“We will need to invest over $1.2 trillion in our nation’s infrastructure over the next decade just to catch up to where we should be,” she said.
Yet demands upon the transportation system will only increase as it is expected to be moving 70 million more people by 2045, with freight volumes increasing 40 percent and air traffic passenger volume going up 50 percent by that year as well, Thomson pointed out. “So what does the future hold? I’m an optimist and I believe this is one of the most exciting times to be involved in transportation,” she said. “We’re seeing innovation in the use of drones and the development of self-driving vehicles. We need to be willing to take informed risks especially with technology to find ways to improve the safety, performance, resiliency and stability of our transportation system,” Thomson said. “There’s a lot of innovation going on, especially with drones and self-driving cars and trucks, and at some point we will need to persuade the public that they are safe; that they are a reasonable risk to take,” she said. “State and local governments are stepping up and addressing some of these transportation issues, but collectively between the public and private sector, we must do more.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)
Caterpillar Inc. Reports Record Second Quarter Results Caterpillar Inc. announced second-quarter 2018 sales and revenues of $14.0 billion, compared with $11.3 billion in the second quarter of 2017, a 24 percent increase. Second-quarter 2018 profit per share of $2.82 was a second-quarter record. Profit per share was $1.35 in the second quarter of 2017. Adjusted profit per share in the second quarter of 2018 was $2.97, compared with second-quarter 2017 adjusted profit per share of $1.49. During the second quarter of 2018, Machinery, Energy & Transportation (ME&T) operating cash flow was $2.1 billion, and the company repurchased $750 million of Caterpillar common stock. In June 2018, the board of directors approved an increase to the quarterly dividend of 10 percent to $0.86 per share. The second quarter of 2018 ended with an enterprise cash balance of $8.7 billion. “Caterpillar delivered record secondquarter profit per share,” said Caterpillar CEO Jim Umpleby. “Our team is doing a great job executing our strategy for profitable growth, focusing on operational excellence, expanded offerings and services.” 2018 Outlook The company is raising its 2018 profit per
share outlook to a range of $10.50 to $11.50. Excluding restructuring costs of about $400 million, the company expects adjusted profit per share to be in a range of $11.00 to $12.00. The prior profit per share outlook range was $9.75 to $10.75, and the adjusted profit per share outlook range was $10.25 to $11.25. “Based on outstanding results in the first half of the year and continued strength in many of our end markets, Caterpillar is again raising our profit outlook for 2018. We remain focused on operational excellence, cost discipline and investing for long-term profitable growth,” said Umpleby. Sales and revenues — Most end markets continue to improve, order rates are healthy, and the backlog remained solid in the quarter. For certain applications, particularly in oil and gas and mining, the company is seeing strong demand and taking orders for delivery well into 2019. Operating profit — The company is raising the outlook range primarily due to the continued strength in many end markets. Recently imposed tariffs are expected to impact material costs in the second half of the year by approximately $100 million to $200 million, and the company expects supply chain challenges to continue to pressure
freight costs. However, the company intends to largely offset these impacts through announced mid-year price increases and using the Operating & Execution Model to further drive operational excellence and structural cost discipline. The outlook does not include a mark-tomarket gain or loss for remeasurement of pension and other postemployment benefit (OPEB) plans, changes to provisional estimates recorded in 2017 for U.S. tax reform, or any impact from future geopolitical risks, including increased trade restrictions above those currently in place. Share Repurchase; Authorization for New $10 Billion Share Repurchase Program In January 2014, the board of directors authorized the repurchase of $10.0 billion of Caterpillar common stock. The current program expires at the end of this year. Under this authorization, the company repurchased $1.25 billion in common stock in the first half of 2018, of which $750 million was repurchased in the second quarter. As of June 30, 2018, $4.2 billion remained on the current authorization. The company currently expects share repurchases during the second
half of 2018 to be in a similar range as the first half, but the amount could vary depending upon market conditions and investing priorities. Aligned with the cash deployment
“Our team is doing a great job executing our strategy for profitable growth.” Jim Umpleby Caterpillar
strategy, the company plans to be in the market for share repurchases on a fairly consistent basis. In July 2018, the board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $10.0 billion of Caterpillar common stock effective January 1, 2019, with no expiration date.

Building a Strong Construction Safety Congress Finishes Record Starts With Creating a Culture Work on Perkins Reauthorization
Safety is improving in the construction industry, according to the National Safety Council, but serious injuries and fatalities still occur. “I think it’s fair to say that while we have been getting better at preventing most incidents and improving safety, in general, there are specific ways in which we have not been improving and we need to do more to address,” said John Dony of the Campbell Institute/National Safety Council. Dony and fellow safety professionals outlined how to build a strong construction safety culture in a recent ConExpo-Con/AGG 365 article. Beyond Compliance: Creating a Culture of Safety Going beyond compliance training is one of the biggest things that organizations in any industry can do, but this is perhaps more relevant in construction than any other industry because compliance training is often mandated, according to Dony. He suggests that training around more advanced safety topics and focusing on creating a culture of safety are what is really critical — not necessarily being able to score 80 percent on a comprehensive test. Creating a culture of safety includes empowering all workers, employees, or contractors to make observations, report unsafe conditions, and have the authority to stop work without retribution. “Until an organization is able to build that sort of a culture and back it with a management system built on the principle of continuous improvement, it won’t get very far with training,” he explains. Consider this example: you can take first aid training a hundred times, but you will never be a doctor. You’ll just be very good at first aid. In the same way, focusing on a basic level of safety training and not paying attention to systems and culture will not fundamentally make an organization any safer, Dony said. Still, there are a number of resources and tools at the disposal of construction companies today. For instance, rainyday and on-the-spot training are available and effective. However, in-person training provides invaluable tools, resources, and information to ensure participants can apply information

learned in the field, said Eric Perry of the American Traffic Safety Services Association (ATSSA). Emerging Technologies Enhance Safety Training Technology, in general, is making training and development both more efficient and effective. Case in point: mobile learning, education and training conducted via hand-held devices. “Training is no longer one and done, check-the-box events,” said David Braunstein of Together for Safer Roads. “Organizations can now offer ongoing, engaging micro-learning events, reaching employees who do not normally work out of an office environment. This means safety training can literally accompany employees to the job site, keeping safe practices and procedures top of mind,” he said. Braunstein suggests one of the most important skills any employee can develop in the construction industry is hazard recognition — and technology can help. Advances in the field of training and development include virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), which are already helping many construction professionals analyze, predict
and prevent hazardous situations. Other emerging technologies that can help with safety training include: • Wearables for monitoring heat stress or limiting access to restricted areas • Sensors for avoiding human and machine interaction • Drones for inspections • Mobile devices for safety reporting and information Dony said the applications for technology that help make workers safer are nearly limitless, and more are being explored by organizations every day. “The key is to consider what technology will have the biggest bang for the buck and also ensure that you don’t add any additional or new risks to a project when you integrate technology as a solution for an existing problem,” he said. “For many employees, acceptance of new technologies can be challenging, so it is important for companies to invest in meaningful training to understand the purpose and successful use of these technologies,” said Braunstein.

On July 25, the House approved the bipartisan Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century Act (H.R. 2353), sending the legislation to President Trump for his signature. This action comes on the heels of Senate passage on July 23. AED made enactment of H.R. 2353 a key part of its legislative agenda this Congress. The legislation reforms, modernizes and reauthorizes the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act. The Perkins Act, which hasn’t been updated in more than a decade, is the principal source of federal funding for the improvement of secondary and postsecondary career and technical education programs across the nation. “Today, Congress took a long overdue step toward addressing the nation’s skills gap by approving the Strengthening Career & Technical Education for the 21st Century Act,” said AED’s President & CEO Brian P. McGuire. “By reflecting current workforce needs, empowering state and local entities, and emphasizing work-based learning opportunities, the bipartisan legislation provides tools to better prepare workers for well-paying careers and ensure that U.S. companies can seize new business opportunities, making the United States more competitive in the global economy. “The greatest strategic challenge facing the construction equipment industry is the scarcity of skilled technical workers that is costing AED members more than $2.4 billion per year in lost revenue and economic activity. H.R. 2353 is an important part of the solution, which along with a commitment by businesses, schools and government officials to collectively tackling the technical education crisis at all levels, will help our nation’s students acquire the skills needed to meet employer demands. Thank you to the bill’s sponsors for their leadership on this issue. The construction equipment industry urges the president to sign this important legislation into law as soon as possible.”
The Legislation Will Help: • Align CTE programs to the needs of the regional, state and local labor markets. • Support effective and meaningful collaboration between secondary and postsecondary institutions and employers. • Increase student participation in work-based learning opportunities. • Promote the use of industry recognized credentials and other recognized post-secondary credentials. These improvements will more effectively spend federal dollars to help our nation’s students acquire the skills that they need and employers — including AED members — are demanding. The AED Foundation recently commissioned two studies by the College of William & Mary quantifying the skilled worker shortage’s impact on the construction equipment industry and analyzing career and technical education (CTE) programs on a state-by-state basis.

Phillips and Jordan’s William Ted Phillips Sr. Dies at 87 William Ted Phillips Sr., age 87, died in Knoxville, Tenn., on July 30, 2018, after an extended illness. He is survived by his wife of 64 years, Avis Shuler Phillips of Land O’ Lakes, Fla., and by two children, five grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. His children are Lesa Phillips Whitson (and her husband, Handy) and W.T. “Teddy” Phillips, Jr. (and his wife, Christy), both of Knoxville, Tenn. His grandchildren are Kelly Baker Henderson (and her husband, Chip), Bart Snider, Chelsey Snider Vaughan (and her husband, Jackson), Piper Phillips Stromatt (and her husband, Tyler) and Sloan Phillips. His great-grandchildren are Campbell Baker, Mary Charles Henderson, Hudson Snider and Patton Vaughan. Mr. Phillips was a member of Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church in Knoxville, Tenn. Ted Phillips was born in rural Graham County, N.C., in 1931 and graduated from Robbinsville High School. Growing up during The Great Depression, he possessed a positive attitude and a penchant for hard work and not much more. His wife, Avis, was also from Robbinsville and they were married in 1953. Always bold and without fear, Mr. Phillips took his first contracting job in 1949 at the age of 17 by partnering with his cousin to perform a $495 land clearing contract for the Tennessee Valley Authority in Mississippi. Ted borrowed his Dad’s car, loaded cross-cut saws and axes, picked up his partner and two other men and headed down 450 mi. of narrow, curvy two-lane roads from the mountains of Robbinsville, N.C. to Philadelphia, Miss. The manual labor was hard, hot and tiring but, after expenses, they finished with a profit. Ted had no idea when he took on this little clearing job that it would become his life’s work and that this work would eventually grow into one of the largest contractors of its kind in the country. In 1952, at the still-young age of 20 and three years after his first contracting job, Ted Phillips partnered with his brother-in-law, Ted Jordan, to found Phillips and Jordan (commonly known as P&J) to pursue larger land clearing and grubbing projects. In 1959, the company was subsequently incorporated and Ted Phillips was elected chairman of the board and president, titles he would hold for more than 50 years. P&J grew dramatically over the following 12 years under Ted’s leadership and, in 1971, he sold P&J to Kaneb Services Inc., a large, publicly-traded energy company based in Houston, Texas, whose stock was listed on the New York Stock Exchange. During the time P&J was owned by
William Ted Phillips Sr.
Kaneb Services Inc., Ted continued to be primarily responsible for its operation and growth. In a bold move typical for Ted, he bought P&J back from Kaneb Services Inc. in 1985. After the reacquisition of P&J, Ted strategically transitioned it into a heavy civil construction and infrastructure company with a national presence. Headquartered in Knoxville, Tenn., and with regional offices in North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Texas and California, P&J has worked in 43 different states since the year 2000. Far beyond merely clearing land, P&J’s primary areas of work now relate to site development for public utilities and rightof-way clearing for transmission lines and pipelines, industrial and commercial site development, construction and repair of dams and reservoirs and disaster response. From a small company formed in the mountains of rural Western North Carolina, Ted Phillips grew P&J into one of the 200 largest contractors in the United States with annual revenues of one-half billion dollars and employing more than 1,200 people. Ted Phillips led the day-to-day operations of P&J until 2010 and served as a director and chairman emeritus until his death. Some of P&J’s notable projects during his long tenure included: • The land clearing for a large portion of the West Virginia Turnpike beginning in 1953.
• The land clearing beginning in 1959 for the Flaming Gorge Reservoir which is still the largest reservoir in Wyoming with more than 42,000 acres of surface area. • The land clearing and canal construction of a significant portion of the TennesseeTombigbee Waterway in Alabama and Mississippi beginning in 1982. • The construction of the Ray Roberts Dam in Denton, Texas, which dams up a tributary of the Trinity River to form Lake Ray Roberts. At 141 ft. high and more than two mi. long, the Ray Roberts Dam was the largest earthen dam in the United States at the time of its construction in 1987. • The cleanup after natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes and floods where P&J has played a significant role in the cleanup after virtually every major hurricane that has affected the United States since Hurricane Andrew in 1992. • The cleanup after man-made disasters such as the 9/11 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York City in 2001 or the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010. In addition to his role at P&J, Mr. Phillips also was a real estate investor and developer of shopping centers. Mr. Phillips had a particular interest in
into the Junior Achievement of East Tennessee Business Hall of Fame in 2010. Ted Phillips always appreciated the many people who came into his life whether in business or as personal friends and he was privately generous to an untold number of people. Although he worked hard and could be demanding when necessary in business, Ted loved to joke and have fun, and he enjoyed telling stories (many times leaving the listener wondering if the story was true or not). Ted was witty and clever and enjoyed a good prank. He loved to buy and sell heavy equipment and marveled at their ability to move the earth. He became a pilot in the early 1960s to better scout out potential land clearing jobs. He survived airplane crashes, car wrecks and other mishaps. Ted served on the Board of Directors of banks and a large, publicly-traded company. He was one of the first businessmen allowed to travel to Russia when travel restrictions were eased near the end of the Cold War and, while there, once taught the Tennessee Waltz to a local band just so they could play it for him. Although he traveled the world over, Ted’s heart was always in Robbinsville, and he especially loved the beauty and serenity of Lake Santeetlah. Among his many personal interests, he really enjoyed hunting and fishing and spending time with his family and friends at his beloved 4G Ranch in Florida. Ted Phillips truly lived a full life. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to either the Ted Phillips Scholarship Fund for Construction Management in care of Western Carolina University, Advancement Department, 201 H.F. Robinson Building, Cullowhee, NC 28723 (www.wcu.edu), or to the Ted and Avis Phillips Endowed Nursing Scholarship Fund in care of Lincoln Memorial University, Attn: University Advancement, 6965 Cumberland Gap Parkway, Harrogate, Tenn. 37752 (www.lmunet.edu). In lieu of food, the family requests that friends privately perform a random act of kindness for a complete stranger in Ted’s honor. The family would appreciate a note describing the random act of kindness so that they can take comfort in knowing that Ted’s legacy of private generosity endures. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)
When Ted took his first clearing job in 1949, he had no idea that it would become his life’s work and that this work would eventually grow into one of the largest contractors of its kind in the country. supporting educational opportunities for young men and women. In addition to supporting numerous other charitable and philanthropic efforts during his lifetime, Ted and his wife Avis also created the Ted Phillips Scholarship Fund for Construction Management at Western Carolina University and the Ted and Avis Phillips Endowed Nursing Scholarship Fund at Lincoln Memorial University. Ted Phillips was honored to be inducted

Denver to Host Transportation Resilience Innovations Summit, Exchange Oct. 9-10
Denver will serve as the location for the inaugural meeting on managing the impact of natural and man-made disasters on infrastructure, bringing together transportation leaders from around the country. The Resilience Innovations Summit and Exchange (RISE) will be Oct. 910, at the Sheraton Downtown Denver. Leaders will share state-ofthe-practice information about how to include resilience practices within transportation system performance activities. The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) will co-host this meeting with the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, the Transportation Research Board and the U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration. The loss of transportation assets, no matter the cause, leads to significant (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment consequences for system users and the Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) economy. Hazardous events and disas-
ters over the years have demonstrated, often with tragic, cascading consequences, that many transportation assets, as well as other public and private assets, are vulnerable to compromise and are at risk of untimely disruptions. Colorado is not immune to events like these and the 2013 floods that affected the state is a prime example. CDOT’s resiliency efforts following the flood have become an example for other states recovering from disasters. “Resiliency has been woven into almost every project we do since 2013. We learned from that disaster but we have more to learn and more to share,” said Michael Lewis, CDOT executive director. “CDOT is proud to co-host this Summit and we look forward to this first-ever exchange of ideas with our peers around the country.” Attendees from national organizations are expected to attend, including: • Transportation executives and practitioners who fund, own, plan,
design, construct, operate and/or maintain transportation systems and facilities; • elected officials and community group participants who are concerned about the impacts of transportation system disruptions on a community; • emergency responders, and security and emergency management officials; • users of the transportation system who require reliable transportation system performance; • non-transportation officials who have responsibilities for resilient infrastructure systems; and • researchers and consultants who study how to make transportation systems more resilient and equitable.

To help you and your crew avoid mosquito- and tick-borne diseases, OSHA has provided some guidelines.
Emily Buenzle CEG WEB EDITOR
For industries that require outside work, like construction and landscaping, this time of year brings forth hazards that could lead to life-threatening illnesses if precautions are not taken. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), vector-borne pathogens including Lyme disease; West Nile, dengue and Zika virus; Plague; and Spotted fever rickettsioses are being transmitted by mosquitos and ticks in areas of the United States, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands and American Samoa, JDSupra reported. Although the CDC said that malaria and yellow fever are not currently seeing transmission in the United States, they could be reintroduced. Between 2004 and 2016, 642,602 cases of vector-borne diseases were reported, the CDC said. Here’s the breakdown: • Tick-borne bacterial and protozoan diseases rose from more than 22,000 in 2004 to more than 48,000 in 2016; • Lyme disease made up 82 percent of all tick-borne diseases reported in the continental United States; • The most reports of mosquito-borne illnesses, including dengue, chikungunya and Zika, came from Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands and American Samoa. However, West Nile virus, which also is transmitted by mosquitos, was reported in
the continental United States, JDSupra reported. All About Prevention To help you and your crew avoid these diseases, OSHA has provided some guidelines: • Stay away from overgrown grass, brush and wooded areas; • Reduce tick, deer and rodent habitats by eliminating leaves, tall grass and brush near your worksite; • Eliminate areas where standing water can collect; • Wear long-sleeved shirts and tuck pants into socks or boots to prevent tick and mosquito bites; • Wear high boots or closed shoes that offer the most possible foot coverage; • Wear a hat with mosquito netting attached to it; • Use insect repellants that contain DEET on any exposed areas of skin (but not the face). Permethrin will kill ticks on contact, so use that on any clothing; • Choose light-colored clothing so you can spot and remove ticks more easily before they bite; and • Perform a thorough body check for mosquito bites and ticks. If you do find a tick, remove it immediately with tweezers— never use petroleum jelly, a hot match, nail polish or other products.

Core Engineering Inc.’s Rototilt Digs Up Major ROI Since 2004, Core Engineering Inc. has specialized in excavation and the installation of underground utility services — electrical, gas, water, sewer, telecommunication — as well as providing its San Francisco Bay Area customers with a range of general building and landscape construction services. “Underground work has become my niche. When you start focusing on one thing and get connected with the right people, business starts building by word of mouth,” said David Lara, president of Core Engineering. In the early years, Lara used a skid steer and mini-excavator for his drainage, sewers and trench work. He also needed two to three temp workers at $50-55/hour on every job site to keep dirt away from buildings, help switch out buckets or tools, grade by hand or keep material piles coned so it could be picked up by the excavator. “I needed two excavators because the big one couldn’t get in tight areas beside houses and the small one didn’t have as much power, so it would take me three times as long as with the big one,” he recalls. By 2016, Lara was looking for a piece of equipment that could maneuver like a human could, without the cost and liability of workers. “I wanted to be able to dig around pipes from any direction and work my way out with a clean site. I started looked at tilting buckets, but I wanted something more,” he said. That’s when he learned about Rototilt, which gives him 40-degree tilt and the added flexibility to rotate all his attachments 360 degrees so it’s easy to position his machine at the optimal angle for every job. “When I first saw Rototilt, I thought, that is awesome. I knew it would make my jobs easier and I had to get one.” He bought the lighter weight, responsive, Rototilt RT20 model, designed specifically for 3 to 6-t excavators and installed it on a John Deere 60. ROI From Day 1 When it comes to estimating projects, keeping track of the numbers is Lara’s top priority. He has always measured and documented every element of the job but when he pulled into the first project with a Rototilt, those calculations went out the window. “In my experience, that first job should have taken me a week. When I showed up with that machine, it only took me a day and a half,” said Lara, adding his client was so impressed, the scope of the project was expanded from $30,000 to $150,000. “I took over 70 percent of the landscaper’s work when he told the client ‘let David do it since he has all the equipment’.” Since Rototilt can tilt and turn, Lara doesn’t have to reposition himself as often. This means less remediation and
clean up of where he tracked, which Lara estimates saves him 70 percent of restoration time. “In 30 days, I can’t see anyone not being able to pay off a Rototilt by just using it.” Dialed in to Control Whether it’s grading and compacting slopes, exposing underground pipes or cables, building retaining walls, or placing boulders, the Rototilt Proportional Control System gives operators proportional control over all functions, and is equipped with specialized modes including a pulse/shake mode to spread material and a creep mode for fine positioning. “Proportional control is awesome,” Lara said, explaining it gives him pinpoint control and accuracy. “It’s like having a robot hand. Anything I think of, I can pretty much do with my Rototilt.” “If I’m next to finished concrete or landscape material, being able to slow down the controls gives us peace of mind we won’t damage anything, especially if someone less experienced or with less skills is at the controls. It gives you that surgical skill you might not have.”
pactor. “The grapple module on the back [of the Rototilt] is amazing for light duty grapple work. And, with proportional controls, you can grab things like a pipe and not damage it,” he said, explaining he uses it to place catch basins, roll out landscape fabric, and for loading and unloading his trailer when he pulls into or leaves a job site. “It saves like, an hour and a half, just unloading attachments and material.” The built-in hydraulic quick coupler also saves Lara time and labor since he can quickly and easily switch from one attachment to another without getting out of the cab, and the conventional coupler mounts let operators use a wide range of other attachments like Lara’s screening bucket, sweeping broom, and drum grapple. “I can switch back and forth with attachments all the time and I don’t have to get out of the machine, so I don’t need a laborer on site anymore.” Lara is constantly looking at new attachments to extend the functionality and has a set of forks on order. He said that, while he bought the optional blade for the John Deere, havsee ROTOTILT page 38
Attachments to Grab and Go In addition to the standard digging bucket and a universal ditching bucket, Lara added several Rototilt attachments for increased versatility including a cable bucket, grapple module, Rototilt multi-use MG20 grapple, and Rototilt C22 com-
The versatile 40-degree tilt and 360-degree turntable means Lara can get at pipes from better angles and dig smaller holes. This translates into less restoration, less slurry backfill and smaller plates to keep the streets open.

Rototilt Helps Save California Contractor Time, Money ROTOTILT from page 35
ing the Rototilt means he rarely needs it. Less Waste In the past, Lara said he needed to dig wider trenches to accommodate excavator placement, which also meant he needed larger plates to cover the holes in the road, it took longer to back fill and he was moving a lot more material around. The versatile 40-degree tilt and 360degree turntable means Lara can get at pipes from better angles and dig smaller holes. This translate into less restoration, less slurry
backfill and smaller plates to keep the streets open. “I was losing material on both sides of the trench every time I back filled, which would become contaminated. Because I can now turn the bucket sideways, I can pour the sand in more accurately and fill a trench way faster. I have 2/3 the waste and I can re-cone my sand piles myself so I don’t need a guy with a shovel.” A Clean Sweep Lara has found site clean up is faster than ever. Being able to rotate and break up
Benefits: • Cuts down on labor • Speeds project completion • Reduces machine wear and tear • Extends contracts By the Numbers: • Project completion dropped from 5 days to 1.5 days • One project saw the scope expand from $30,000 to $150,000 • Onsite labor drops from a high of 3 to 0 • Less movement around a job site cuts restoration time by 70 percent • Material waste when backfilling cut by 2/3
debris and place it in the trailer takes up less room so he can maximize his loads and reduce tipping fees. “Rototilt is enjoyable to use for clean up as well. I will grade on my way out, even if it was disturbed by someone else. It looks amazing when we’re done, and people are like wow, everything is so clean.” With a broom attachment he can quickly clean up driveways, which his clients love. “Before cleaning up was a bit of a hassle but now, it’s like, why not, its quick and easy.” Labor Gets Cut The Rototilt grapple module also gives Lara a big hand removing fabric from between rock and dirt. In the past, he’d have to haul out around 200 yds. of dirt on a typical job because the material would be contaminated as laborers struggled to pull the fabric out of rocky dirt. “Instead of having three guys cut the fabric as I’m loading the truck, I can grab it and pull it out while keeping the rock clean,” he said, estimating this saves him around $1,250 a load for each of the 16 loads he’d send to the dump. “And you are saving like 50 percent of the time and three laborers.” For Lara, the labor savings adds up when
he considers payroll, and workers compensation, as well as the damage laborers can do to site or equipment. “You get rid of a lot of liability,” said Lara, estimating he saves $800 a day because he doesn’t need laborers on most of his sites now. “A Rototilt is not a cost; it is a tool to make your life easier and it saves you on labor and liabilities.” What’s Next Core Engineering is looking at adding a John Deere 30 outfitted with Rototilt RT10 and will also look to equip the new Doosan DX 140 that Lara said he bought for cash from the increased revenue made possible by his Rototilt-equipped excavator. “That was my Christmas present,” he said, laughing. And while Lara admits there are only a few guys in his area with one, he’s never looking back. “A Rototilt is the swiss army knife of attachments. You can get any kind of buckets and tools for them or even custom make attachments.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Felling Receives NATM’s 2018 Green Manufacturing Award Felling Trailers Inc. was presented with the 2018 Green Manufacturing Award this past February at the NATM Conference (National Association of Trailer Manufacturers) in Fort Worth, Texas. NATM’s Green Manufacturing Award was established to recognize manufacturers that have made significant contributions towards improving their environmental impact within their manufacturing processes and facilities. The award celebrates environmental awareness and protection, as well as the business opportunities created therein. Felling’s Green Initiatives Over the course of several years Felling Trailers Inc. has made the reduction of its environmental footprint a prime focus in the operation of its company. It has done this by setting initiatives in place to maximize energy efficiency and minimize waste. The most recent initiative achieved was obtaining ISO 9001:2015 Certification for its quality management system. Felling took steps to maximize energy usage by upgrading lighting systems from the use of metal halide bulbs to T8 fluorescent bulbs. “The benefits of the T8 greatly out weight the transition cost from the metal halide,” said Paul Radjenovich, Felling’s VP of operations. The T8 fixtures use one-quarter of the electricity of the previous metal halide fixtures, have 30 percent less light loss, and provide 40 times longer life expectancy. Better lighting, better work environment, the T8 also provides a higher color rendering index (CRI) of 85 compared to the 65 to 70 that the metal halide bulb provides. The higher CRI makes objects and surfaces in a room appear more as they would under natural lighting, increasing the eye’s ability to see contrast, detail, and reducing eyestrain. This not only creates a positive environmental impact, but also saves the company significantly in operational costs, according to Felling.. The company implemented a partnership with Stericycle, a waste management solution provider, whose services handle pick-up and proper disposal of liquid paint waste, fluorescent light bulbs, metal halide bulbs, and oil absorbent rags to ensure environmental safeguarding, protection of people,

and organizational compliance. In the period of one year, nearly 8,000 gallons of paint waste was reused as fuel in cement kilns, 165 gallons of paint waste was considered waste-to-energy and 500 light bulbs were recycled. Air quality plays a significant part in employee comfort, safety, and performance in a manufacturing environment. Felling recognized this and put into motion their air quality initiative. The company invested in ventilation systems that capture welding fumes and gases at their source and remove them from the worker’s breathing zones. The captured air is then filtered through a high-efficiency canister filter with a 99.9 percent efficiency rate, exceeding OSHA requirements. Felling’s blast booth also is equipped with its own air filtration system that not only filters the air but returns it to the welding shop floor helping to maintain the heat of the manufacturing area and better regulate the temperature. “Our work environment has improved dramatically over the years, not only the air quality but lighting and temperature control as well. The air exchangers allow us to maintain a higher room temperature in the winter
by not sucking out a majority of the heat with the dirty air,” said Lyle Mader, special projects coordinator at Felling Trailers. Felling also implemented a system that utilizes heat produced from the compressor room that houses four large compressors. The system is configured with two modes: summer and winter. In winter mode, the warm air is pulled, filtered and pushed into the drying room supplementing the heat that would otherwise be produced via radiant gas heat from the ceiling. In the summer mode, the warm air is pulled, filtered and pushed outside. The company also took steps to reduce the amount of hazardous air pollutants by using a new paint vendor that offers paint with only 4 percent of the pollutants found in its previous paint. Along with the award from the National Association of Trailer Manufacturers, there is a cash gift that is directed to a charitable organization of the recipient’s choice. Felling selected the mikeroweWorks Foundation as the recipient of the Green Award monetary donation. As part of its efforts to debunk myths about the skilled trades and help close the skills gap, the mikeroweWORKS Foundation provides
scholarships to qualified individuals willing to learn a trade that is in demand. Since its inception, the Foundation has granted, or helped facilitate the granting of, more than $5 million in technical and vocational education in the United States. “As an industry and company who relies heavily on the skills that result from trade schools, Felling Trailers Inc. proudly selected mikeroweWORKS Foundation to receive our Green Award donation. We are grateful to the other vendors who contributed to this cause as well,” said Brenda Felling Jennissen, president/CEO of Felling Trailers Inc. This year’s contributors to the Green Award were: PPG, Optronics International, LaVanture Products Company, The Carlstar Group, Dexter Axle, Marsh & McLennan Agency, and Kenda/Americana Tire & Wheel for a total donation of $8,000.

Sennebogen Offers the Right Combination for CRC Scrap Metal Recycling When Blake Stanley graduated from college, he immediately joined the new metals recycling company that his grandfather Ronnie Strange had started up just months before. Strange launched the business with the help of two other partners, and Stanley soon learned that who you know is often as important as what you know, to get a new enterprise off the ground. CRC was well-equipped for local business with its 750-ton logger/baler/shear and a rubber tired material handler. Building the firm’s supply of whole cars, industrial scrap and residential retail scrap, Stanley became active in his local community, in Duncan, S.C., and he currently serves as president of South Carolina Recyclers Association Inc. (SCRA). Building on Trust When the yard encountered problems with an orange peel grapple, Stanley reached out to a fellow member of the SCRA: Rob Jordan, the Sennebogen material handling specialist for nearby Ascendum Machinery Inc. “We were getting frustrated, then Rob came in and sold us a new Sennebogen grapple that we’ve never had any issues with,” Stanley said. “At that point, we knew we could trust Rob, and if we had a problem, that he would take care of it.” CRC’s business did keep growing. After a few years of operation, Strange acquired full ownership of CRC from his partners. Stanley, his grandfather and Kevin Land, operations manager, decided that a second material handler was needed on the site. “As a young company, we wanted to learn more about different equipment,” said Stanley. “We were ready to look at a different OEM. Based on our relationship with Rob Jordan, we gave him a call and his team from Ascendum Machinery came up with
the right equipment for the job.” Wearing Many Hats While their original machine stays busy offloading trucks at one end of the yard, a new Sennebogen 825 M now feeds the shear and handles loading duties for outbound trucks. “Our crew appreciates the maintenance access they get on the Sennebogen and the fact that it uses minimal electronics. It’s built heavier than our other unit. And our operators appreciate having the lights on the boom for a better look at their loads.” Blake acknowledged that, as a smaller operation, he and his team all wear a lot of hats. However, he found that Jordan was able to help with one of his other key positions, too. Ever safety conscious, he took a lead role in organizing an OSHA training event, sponsored jointly by SCRA and its counterpart in North Carolina. Jordan arranged for the event to be hosted at Sennebogen’s North America head office near Charlotte, N.C. The 100,000 sq. ft. Sennebogen facility includes a fully equipped training center. Complete with classrooms and demonstration displays, the center is actually built around a three-level service bay built for hands-on indoor instruction on complete machines. Ascendum is continuing to work with CRC, providing ongoing maintenance service to the equipment. Like the people at CRC, the new 825 M is proving to be comfortable wearing many hats. “Loading or unloading, sorting and feeding the shear, it’s a very diverse machine for us,” Stanley said. For more information, visit www.sennebogen-na.com. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)
Loading the logger, baler, shear is a primary responsibility of the Sennebogen 825.
The Sennebogen is matched with a Sennebogen grapple that is sized right to maximize the machine’s productivity.

Keestrack’s Remote Plant Control Keestrack-er Ensures Real-Time Info Continuous analyses of operational and productivity data are an important key to provide full availability and optimized productivity of machine fleets and processing equipment in quarrying and recycling applications. On Keestrack’s mobile crushing and screening plants the advanced GSM/Satellite-based monitoring tool Keestrack-er guarantees full real-time location information and status reports and offers access to the plant’s control software for immediate adjustments or larger updates. Two-Way System The Keestrack-er telematic system was introduced as an option on the latest generation of Keestrack screeners and crushers two years ago. Key components are a GSM/UMTS modem and a combined GSM/GPS antenna, which are linked through CAN bus to the machines’ main control unit. Real-time performance values (engine/drive speeds, hydraulic pressures, crusher settings, etc.), stored data and the machine’s accurate position are transmitted via GSM network and the local GSM provider’s internet access to the central Keestrack server. The information memorized and administered on this server can now be safely and reliably retrieved at any time and from everywhere worldwide. The interactive structure of Keestrack-er also allows direct access on the machine’s PLCcontroller to fix or update the plant software.

The two-way communication structure of Keestrack-er allows remote service on the plant’s software.
Customizable Platform According to the varying needs of involved parties — machine owners, service experts at dealers and technicians in Keestrack’s competence centers — Keestrack-er offers different service packages to display, manage or edit the plant values and data. The telematic viewer gives immediate access to all relevant parameters of drive components and installed ancillary equipment. For the ease of smartphone, tablet or laptop users important values are displayed in dashboard style, intuitive graphics inform about activated components (screens, conveyors, etc.) and alert in case of malfunctions and abnormal values. This enables users to react instantaneously to avoid further damages by stopping the operation or reviewing scheduled maintenance to minimize productivity losses. The web portal is the ideal management tool for single Keestrack plants or machine fleets. Individual reports list all relevant data, clearly identified for specific plants, time periods (shift, week, month) and locations. The web-based application can be run password-secured from office desktops or any other access points. All data can be exported into common formats for data compiling and form a perfect base for cost-effective maintenance planning. The integrated processing of operational data (e.g. machine working/idling/travelling), respective consumption and output values (with installed belt weighers) create a perfect instrument to opti-
mize productivity under specific jobsite conditions. The GPS-based tracking tool helps to follow-up on site or site-tosite working plans and to prevent contractual misuse through “geo-fencing” agreed operation areas. The telematic editor offers direct access to the PLC-controller of the screen or crusher. With the machine owner’s approval skilled personnel from Keestrack’s competence centers can run real-time diagnostics and initiate remote software updates to solve problems. Intelligent Future With its combination of proven hardware components — an option on all new Keestrack plants, retrofit-packages are available for selected 2015/2016 screens and crushers — reliable network solutions and attractive annual subscription rates for the different service packages Keestrack-er offers today one of the industry most competitive remote monitoring solutions. Identifying customer needs the in-house platform design department is continuously developing the system’s offering. Next steps will be integral fleet management tools for combined machines and automated maintenance planning according to detected wear characteristics.

Terex Washing Systems Bring Latest Tech to Market The spotlight was firmly on Terex Washing Systems (TWS) at the Hillhead Show in Buxton, UK, with two new products on display — the AggWash 300, a screening, scrubbing, sizing and sand recovery for recyclable aggregates, all on one modular chassis, and Terex AquaClear, the first water management treatment system from Terex. “Terex Washing Systems is focused on bringing to market products that deliver value to our customers and offer solutions that serve their needs. The AggWash 300 and AquaClear we brought to Hillhead do just that. Customers to the stand were excited to see up close these latest innovations and had the opportunity to speak to our technical experts to discuss bespoke solutions for their specific needs,” TWS director Oliver Donnelly said. AggWash 300 — A Game Changer in Wash Recycling The AggWash was designed to address higher production requirements for recycling customers and quarry owners, particularly in the construction, demolition and excavation waste recycling market. The high performance solution brings together rinsing, screening, scrubbing and sand washing capabilities on a single plant. While its readily portable format makes it particularly suitable for green-field applications, contractor use and temporary planning permission sites, operators more used to static installations will still appreciate the small footprint and minimal site preparations required. Paul McWilliams, TWS engineer manager, said, “In all cases, installation time is significantly less than conventional builds thanks to the high level of factory pre-fitting and connections. The no-compromise design ethos ensures maximum serviceability and performance despite numerous innovative features, including easily removed pumps, ready access to screening media and intuitive controls.” AggWash 300 Highlights The AggWash incorporates two 16 by 5 ft. (4.9 by 1.5 m) triple deck Terex Cedarapids LJ-TS Series horizontal screens, incorporating a triple shaft vibrator mechanism that provides high G force along with efficient oval motion. The compact installation height of horizontal screens compared

to conventional inclined circular motion screens is conducive to the condensed working envelope of the AggWash 300. The “rolling chutes” feature provides easy access for maintenance of the screen. The machine boasts a high capacity logwasher with twin shaft angle adjustment to scrub gravel fraction and float out organics and adhered contaminants. There is a 6 by 4 ft. (1.8 by 1.2 m) trash screen for dewatering of lightweight contaminants from the logwasher and the plant has an integrated sand plant incorporating rubber lined pumps and hydrocyclones, available in various configurations and capacities. Critical for ease of servicing and maintenance, the AggWash 300 also features walkaround access for maintenance. AquaClear — The Icing on the Cake In addition TWS showcased its new water management offering, AquaClear, enabling TWS to offer end-to-end solutions for washing and water management from a single supplier. The range includes clarifying tanks, flocculent dosing systems, filter presses and all associated equipment. The first ever installation is currently being fitted in New England, where TWS is planning an Open
Day for its customers later in the year. A new dedicated team is in place to lead this aspect of the business, which will ensure optimum equipment selection and specification for its customers. Efficient Water Solutions Water Management Solutions are typically comprised of three main components; a floc dosing plant and thickener tank can be used to recycle up to 80 percent of the water used in the washing process. This basic method still involves the use of ponds but on a smaller scale as the sludge sent to the ponds is of a much higher specific gravity (1.5 sg). The next stage is to incorporate a filter press which hydrates this thickened sludge even further typically down to 25 percent moisture. The filter press eliminates the need for ponds as the sludge is hydrated to a material/cake, which can be handled by a loading shovel. This cake can be used as a lining or capping material. Raising the Bar “TWS are due to begin manufacturing the Terex AquaClear Water Management Solutions in Dungannon, Northern Ireland, later this year, working alongside strategic alliance partners in the U.S.,” Donnelly said.
“We are already handling enquiries for AquaClear from Europe and North America markets. Through our strategic alliance, [for North American customers] we can send a filter press fully built up, rather than in its component parts in containers. Working with partners who have been in the industry for many years, we are confident that we have the technical capability to devise optimized solutions which present customers with a unique opportunity to maximize their return on investment. “The reaction and interest to TWS new products and our stand presence was simply overwhelming. The flow of traffic onto the stand was incredible throughout the three days. We had the opportunity to meet with existing satisfied customers, prospective new customers, as well as many of our distributors from around the world. We were delighted to receive a large number of orders throughout the show, which is testament to our commitment to providing enhanced and unique washing solutions to meet customers’ needs and demands,” Donnelly said.

Cat S2000/S3000 Mobile Shears Feature Efficient Design The Cat S2000/S3000 Series mobile shears, designed for hydraulic excavators working in scrap and demolition applications, feature optimum force-to-weight ratios that yield faster cycle times and more cuts per hour, compared with predecessor models. Manufactured from alloy steel that has both superior yield- and tensile-strength properties, as well as substantially greater hardness ratings than T1-type steel, the new S2000/S3000 Series shears are engineered for long, productive service, according to the manufacturer. Designed with added structural strength and with advanced jaw-protection features, the shears can be boom- or stick-mounted and are available in both straight and 360degree-rotating configurations. The rotating feature allows the shear to be positioned in optimum cutting positions without moving the carrier. Efficient Cutting, Rugged Design To ensure cutting efficiency, the guide and cross-blade design of the new models assist in maintaining an optimal cutting edge, and the jaw-relief feature reduces material drag across the blades, allowing material to fall away freely so as not to hinder the next cutting cycle. Further enhanc-
Designed with added structural strength and with advanced jaw-protection features, the shears can be boom- or stick-mounted and are available in both straight and 360-degree-rotating configurations.
ing the new shears’ efficiency is the speed valve, designed to provide ample power when cutting, as well as increased speed when opening the jaws for the next cycle. Tapered spacer plates reduce the drag of material being cut, a design feature that both reduces the amount of energy required from
the shear and speeds cutting. The apex-jaw design further assists in ensuring that material is held in an optimum position within the shear. In addition, the solid-plate design of the upper jaw (compared with a series of plates) is much less vulnerable to cracking. A bolt-on piercing tip also affords added
efficiency and protection at the precise point at which cutting pressures can be most intense. Designed for reliability and long-term durability, the shears also feature a fully enclosed cylinder rod to prevent damage caused by material being processed. This protection also extends to the shear’s hydraulic lines and hoses. Pivot points within shear are designed with premium materials for long service life, and grease points are safely accessible from ground level. Knife maintenance, wear-plate replacement, and tip build-up can be addressed quickly and easily, according to the manufacturer. The new shear models, designed for Cat excavators with operating weights from 11 to 85 tons plus, also fit competitive machines of similar weights. Caterpillar supports Cat work tools with a comprehensive range of pre- and after-sales services, including selection advice, operator training, equipment management, and a range of financial and insurance products.

Towmaster Holds Truck, Trailer Education Expo in Minn.
T
owmaster’s Truck and Trailer Education Expo on July 10 drew more than 500 people from all over the state of Minnesota. Departments of Transportation, municipal, county and township workers attended to see new equipment, plow trucks and trailers; visit with vendors; take factory tours; and attend education sessions prior to being served a lunch. More than 30 vendors attended the show, displaying their latest and most popular products. New tech from industries in cameras, plows, hydraulics, plastics, lighting and more
were shown to the people who use them in their line of work nearly every day. The weather didn’t cooperate, but it didn’t seem to deter the people who really wanted to stay on top of new technology. With a short rain delay, vendors had a chance to talk one-on-one with people and get feedback on what is working and what they’d like to see improved. Towmaster’s crew put on quite a show, and they even did Facebook Live videos of the event and interviews with the vendors, which can be found
on the company Facebook page. Towmaster’s Expo happens every two years and is wellliked by the vendors and well-attended by industry professionals. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG see TOWMASTER page 74

clients, potential employees and the general public to get an inside look at our company culture and day-to-day operations,” Turner said. By consistently showing its work to the outside world and broadcasting its culture of young go-getters, the company has tapped into an untouched pool of young people online who are interested in the industry but aren’t sure where to start. With more than 400 applications of employment over the past three months, the results speak for themselves. Even with hundreds of young people applying and being hired on for their work ethic and positive attitudes, inexperience is another major challenge to overcome. “One of the biggest hurdles is the investment in training inexperienced, young employees,” said Turner. “But if we don’t invest in training the next generation of miners, who will?” After finding the right younger people, even if completely inexperienced, Turner Mining Group gives them the chance to prove themselves safely through a new training program.

After seeing a need for a mine services only contractor, Keaton Turner, founder of Turner Mining Group, set out to build a completely new mining company.
enced yet motivated people, they’ve taken it upon themselves to create the workforce they need. With few serious operator training schools and programs still in existence, training is falling more and more to contractors themselves. A twenty-something year old driving a 40-ton rock truck for the first time ever may seem nerve wracking, but Turner Mining Group’s training programs are tailored to the inexperienced. Turner has an extensive staff of experienced managers who oversee each operation and train newcomers along the way. In addition to a robust training program, it also employs safety software to track inspections and meetings as well as mandatory drug testing for all employees before they ever step on site. Due to the new attitude toward sharing work on social media combined with a robust training program geared toward inexperienced but motivated and positive millennials, Turner Mining Group is quickly becoming the example for the entire industry. Current methods of hiring and training are expired and contractors must adopt new principles to attract the next generation of workers to the industry. With the impending labor gap due to increasing retirements, turning to and inspiring the next generation is crucial to the future success of the industry.

Tax Reform Encourages Growth, Offers Hope Throughout Construction Industry TAX from page 1
“It cut our company in half, from $100 million to $50 million,” said Baldwin, who is Mid-Atlantic Region vice-chairman on the Associated Builders and Contractors board of directors. “We lost a lot of good employees.” He said things began to bounce back in 2015 and ’16. “2017 was better yet and we’re counting on 2018 being even better.” Economist Alex Carrick would agree with Baldwin’s assessment about the economy improving even before tax reform entered the picture. Carrick is chief economist at ConstructConnect, a consortium of construction industry data and information services. “I would say the economy was rebounding anyway. The momentum was there,” Carrick said. “Before this administration,” he said, “I was telling audiences that the economy was in much better shape than they thought it was. Things were getting better and better but no one wanted to believe it. What has happened with the new administration is that it altered the way business was thinking. There was a reset in corporate thinking. Two things that businesses wanted — more favorable corporate tax rates and deregulation — came about and business leaders really embraced them.” Googe concurs that the tax bill’s provisions worked in encouraging industry executives to risk investment. “The law created incentives for business to invest and gave business owners additional confidence that the economic outlook would remain favorable in the near term.” In the longer term, too, he added. “The biggest driver for increased equipment sales is more customers with more jobs where they can profitably deploy the equipment. Caterpillar equipment is an investment, and our customers expand their fleet when they have visibility on their ability to profitably deploy that fleet. Growing your fleet isn’t a short-term strategy.” The economy isn’t gangbusters for every segment of the construction industry, though. Residential construction, for example, still lags. Carrick was asked if the tax law provisions created disparate outcomes for different sectors or if the law lessened the differences. “That’s hard to say. It has not been determined at this point. Residential construction is still lower than you would expect it to be.” Commercial building also has been relatively soft, Carrick observed, with nonresidential construction starts down
from a year ago. The greater activity has been in the industrial and engineering sectors — specifically, the petrochemical industry, with plants going up in Pennsylvania, Louisiana and Texas. “And that relates to deregulation more than to the tax cut. Energy sector prices are going up, deregulation has allowed more drilling, and the industry is a lot more optimistic. So, construction starts on the commercial side have not been due to the tax cuts but to other things,” said Carrick. Reliable Contracting projected a 15 percent jump in project revenue in 2018. Baldwin said it won’t reach that level of new business, though it is experiencing a sizeable increase. The weather is to blame. “We had so much rain around here, early on we lost half of our worktime because of rain days,” he said. The Best Laid Plans…. If the construction economy is underachieving so far, Carrick believes one factor is the adoption of new technologies. “If you are an owner of a company contemplating expansion of your business, you have so many alternatives. In the old days, retailers would build their chain by expanding into a shopping mall or by building a new store,” he said. Now, electronic expansion is a possibility. In non-retailing situations, the same impact is being felt, he said, “Something as prosaic as prisons. They put bracelets on people now and you don’t need all those prisons. Office businesses are working at home. Emergency departments in hospitals are being replaced by doctors monitoring their patients wirelessly. It’s a different world. So, creating this tax cut in the expectation that it would launch a whole bunch of construction, well, it’s not entirely clear it is going to have that effect.” Some parts of the industry are indisputably creating jobs as a consequence of the tax law. Carrick cites companies that lease equipment. “Jobs in that sector have been skyrocketing. Rental of machinery and equipment is one of the real standouts in respect to levels of employment. It’s a very positive indicator,” he said. Where everyone keeps looking for a breakout in construction activity is infrastructure — bridges and highways and other earth-moving projects. President Trump has asked Congress for $200 billion as part of a $1.5 trillion funding program for major infrastructure projects.
So far, Congress can’t find it. In 2009, President Obama got a $100 billion “stimulus package” through Congress, only a small part of which targeted “shovel ready” projects, many of which didn’t prove to be ready for shovels. Googe was asked if this administration’s tax reform initiative will fare better than the earlier one to kickstart infrastructure projects. “It’s apples and oranges,” he said. “The tax reform law is a much broader and more significant driver of economic growth than was the stimulus package, particularly when coupled with the administration’s work to improve the regulatory environment. Long term, our country is still underinvesting in critical infrastructure. We believe our long-term competitiveness requires addressing this. We’re hopeful we will see a bipartisan effort on this front next year.” Carrick wholeheartedly endorses more spending on such projects. “I’m a very big proponent of that. I don’t know how you get the kind of economy you need if you don’t build the infrastructure. All model economies are about moving goods and services and people faster, cheaper, safer and greener. If you don’t have the infrastructure to do that, you are not going to keep up.” He includes schools and hospitals in the critical infrastructure base. “It isn’t just altruistic. From a business perspective, you have to have the smartest and healthiest people. Governments have to decide if they really want to spend money on that. There have to be ways found to invest in our infrastructure,” he said. So, construction executives like Jay Baldwin are hopeful that 2018 will be a good year, even if he can’t get all the new machinery he needs, nor find the 50 employees he would hire tomorrow if he could. Backlogs of work have him looking optimistically to the rest of 2018 and beyond, particularly if Mother Nature begins to cooperate. Yet how much of this good fortune is attributable to the new tax code, Baldwin isn’t sure. “Everything in general is positive. How you connect it all to the tax changes, I don’t know how to define that. We are finishing up year-end stuff with our accountant. We’re going to look back and see how we would have done without the tax change and how we did with the tax change and compare the two. It should be interesting,” he said.
