DOTs Use ‘Dead Space’ Along Interstates to Create Power

By Lucy Perry CEG CORRESPONDENT

The dead space between stretches of interstate is coming alive across the country as states fill these neutral areas with solar panels. California is an early adopter of the concept, putting miles of otherwise empty expanses of land to good use.

The Biden administration likes it as a straight path to reaching net-zero goals and is encouraging other states, such as Florida, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Maine, to join the bandwagon.

A recent study determined that power to more than 250,000 homes could be generated through solar grids at interchanges in just three counties.

The open space between busy traffic does not support wildlife, but in places like southern California it does get a lot of direct sunlight. In fact, Environment California and The Ray found that highway interchanges and off-ramps offer ideal installation sites.

Across the state, that adds up to “almost a gigawatt of potential solar power just from empty land,” the two organizations found.

Tracking Positives An article from electric vehicle news site electrek.co also cited the fact that these neutral spaces are often situated near transmission lines.

State ownership, noted electrek, makes these sites easier to develop than “contracting and leasing for land, building transmission lines and so on.”

Clean energy advocates Steven King and David Peters say there are other benefits to installing solar grids on highway neutral sites. Locating at these spots contributes to a clean energy future, said King, of Environment California and Peters with The Ray. They can mitigate the effects of extreme heat on the electric grid in place, the two told advocacy federation Environment America.

Paired with battery storage systems, they said, these fields “can continue providing clean energy to the electric grid even after the sun sets.”

The technology also can save money and generate revenue at the state level, said King and Peters. It “presents an

More states are filling the neutral spaces in interstate medians and interchanges with solar panel arrays.

opportunity for California to generate revenue while saving money by reducing ongoing roadside maintenance expenses.”

When solar developers maintain their sites along highways, maintenance costs drop for the state. Finally, utilizing these areas to develop solar power leverages existing highways to full productivity, said the two advocates.

FHWA noted in 2021 guidance that these projects also reduce pollution and greenhouse gasses, promote energy security and foster green jobs.

Additionally, the Biden administration considers repurposing rights-of-way for energy infrastructure to be a “netzero game changer” that can help the country meet its climate goals.

The Biden administration likes the idea of repurposing rights-of-way for energy infrastructure and considers it a “net-zero game changer.”

Leading Charge In 2021, FHWA suggested states adopt legislation in favor of utilizing land along the interstates in this way.

The Ray mapped such opportunities on a national level and noted several states, including Georgia, Oregon, Maine, Pennsylvania and Maryland have seen the light. And the sites don’t require massive spans of acreage to shine. In west Georgia, a 4-acre stretch on the shoulder of I-85 has been transformed.

Currently generating energy through 2,600 solar panels, the site was established by The Ray working with state organizations.

Allie Kelly, executive director, told the Columbus, Ga., Ledger-Enquirer that The Ray seeks to combine transportation land and energy needs. The idea is to create clean energy from utilization of the green turf along highways.

“Georgia alone has 19,000 suitable acres for right-of-way solar installation,” Kelly told the Ledger- Enquirer. “This is empty land that the public owns. Using that land for solar is simple and elegant.”

Though the campaign in Georgia is not the only one of its kind, the fact that it’s a collaboration among multiple agencies makes it unique. The state entities came together with The Ray to develop a one-megawatt project featuring native plants and pollinator gardens. The site also encourages bees to perform their pollinating magic under cover of the solar panels.

Kelly said the project had its challenges: “It was like crawling over broken glass to get [the project] done at times.”

In fact, it “nearly died and had to be resuscitated, because the Federal Highway Administration did not have a unified vision” back then, she said.

“Our pain developed a national plan for the FHWA to create consistency vand conformity of how it would treat these projects.” see ENERGY page 41

Ferrovial Lands Nine Construction Takeuchi Donates Contracts Totaling More Than $1B Excavator, Engine to Empower College & Career Center

Work includes the reconstruction of bridges, widening of roadways, and safety improvements for the surrounding communities.

Ferrovial, a global infrastructure operator, announced, through subsidiary Webber, it was awarded nine construction projects in Texas and Florida, totaling more than $1 billion.

Work includes the reconstruction of bridges, widening of roadways and safety improvements for the surrounding communities.

Ferrovial, through its construction subsidiaries, is now working on projects across 10 states, strengthening its growing presence in the United States.

"I am proud of the work our team is doing to improve the safety of our roadways and alleviate traffic congestion in our communities,” said Jose Carlos Esteban, president and CEO of Webber. “These projects position us for continued growth, developing our talent, and expanding our relevant backlog in Texas and along the East Coast."

In Florida, the $79.9 million project is the company’s first large heavy civil project in the state, where it already maintains roads in Orange, Hillsborough and Pinellas counties, and the Port of Miami tunnel.

Webber will reconstruct one of the busiest interchanges in the city of Jacksonville — the interchange of I-95 and U.S. 1, also known as Martin Luther King Parkway. Work is under way and expected to be completed in spring 2025.

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) awarded Webber eight projects throughout the state: • IH-10 Reconstruction Colorado County, $365 million — This project will consist of the complete reconstruction of 12 mi. of IH-10 between Houston and San Antonio. The proposed corridor will consist of three concrete main lanes and two asphalt frontage road lanes in each direction.

Throughout the project, a total of 18 bridges will be completely replaced. Construction is expected to begin in January 2024 with estimated completion in 2027.

• IH-10 Guadalupe County, $245.2 million — Taking place in Seguin, Texas, this project will include a reconstruction and widening of approximately 4 mi. of existing road, along with new bridges and concrete pavement. Other scopes of work include the construction of new frontage roads, a new direct traffic connector between SH 46 and IH19, bridges built over the Union Pacific Railroad and side street reconstruction.

• U.S. 59 San Jacinto, $190 million — With a complete

reconstruction of 6 mi. along U.S. 59, this project will consist of the construction of three concrete main-lanes, two concrete frontage road lanes in each direction, and the replacement of 23 bridges. Construction will begin in January 2024 with an end date in 2028.

• U.S. 75 Collin County, $58.5 million — This freeway operational improvement project of the traffic barrier, signage, illumination and pavement markings will take place along 17 mi. of roadway. Work will begin in January 2024.

• Lubbock County Woodrow Road, $37.9 million — The 2.5-mi. project will reconstruct and widen an existing two-lane FM roadway into four lanes with a dedicated left turn lane from Indiana Avenue to U.S. Highway 87 in south Lubbock County. This roadway is the main corridor for the Lubbock Cooper Independent School District, and with the reconstruction of the roadway, traffic flow and safety will be improved for those in the district. Work will begin in October 2023 and estimated to be completed in 2025.

• IH-27 Bridge Replacement, $24.3 million — With the demo and reconstruction of three existing bridges on IH-27, this project will facilitate cargo movement into and around Lubbock, Texas. Because this area is a cargo route, two of the bridges must remain open to facilitate the movement of cargo, therefore each bridge must be demoed and rebuilt separately from the others.

• U.S. 59 Wharton, $7.1 million — This TxDOT Safety Improvement project that will consist of installing a single slope concrete barrier wall in the median to separate the northbound and southbound traffic. With the Hydraulically Efficient Barrier wall it will also maintain positive drainage should flooding occur in the 100-year floodplain portion of the highway.

• IH-635 Dallas County, $4.2 million — Planned to begin in October and last eight months, the barrier rail project includes the installation of 4.59 mi. of new median barrier to improve the safety for those in the surrounding area.

Webber, a Ferrovial construction U.S. subsidiary, specializes in heavy civil, waterworks, energy and infrastructure services, dedicated to safely providing intelligent solutions to its clients and community. Webber is currently working on more than 50 construction projects and managing 40 infrastructure maintenance contracts in North America. 

“Supporting our local community is a top priority for all of us at Takeuchi-US,” said Susan Dean, director of business technology of Takeuchi-US. “It’s our hope that this donation will give students the kind of real-life experiences that will help them choose and follow the right career paths.

“The construction industry continues to experience a lack of skilled labor, so if we’re able to help these kids discover the value in learning how to operate and maintain heavy equipment, it will benefit us here in Jackson County and beyond.”

Empower College & Career Center (EmpowerC3) is an educational partnership with businesses in Jackson County and the surrounding area. EmpowerC3 engages high school students in career-relevant learning experiences. By working closely with local businesses and industries, higher education and the entire community, EmpowerC3 students are better positioned to reach their college and career aspirations.

“Our goal is to help our students leave high school with authentic experiences that will help them define and refine their choices about college, careers or the military,” said John see STUDENTS page 24

Carolina Cat Returns to Roots With New Salisbury, N.C., Branch

C

harlotte-based Carolina Cat, with locations across western North Carolina, has gone back to its roots by opening its 10th store in the town of its origin.

The new location, at 101 Mooresville Rd., just off Interstate 85 in Salisbury, is part of Carolina Cat’s plan to expand its reach across the region to better serve its customers.

In doing so, Carolina Cat recognized a bit of the dynamic 21st century company’s early history this past April by returning to where the business was formed in 1926 as Carolina Tractor & Equipment.

Eventually, as the dealership became more successful and continued growing, it outgrew its first Salisbury location and established its headquarters in Charlotte, where three of its total number of branches also operate.

Its other stores are in Asheville, Boone, Dillsboro/Sylva, Hickory, Monroe and Greensboro.

Neil Carbaugh (L) of Carolina Cat and Ed Weisiger, chairman Emeritus, Carolina Cat, stand in front of a photo of the team from the early days in the original Salisbury location.

The facility has many Cat compact machines in stock ready for rent or sale.

Salisbury Strategically Located On I-85 Corridor In mid-August, Carolina Cat celebrated its reappearance in Salisbury by holding its third “Burgers in the Bay” event at the store to welcome both new and current customers.

A temporary location until a permanent building can be built, the Salisbury store is geared toward its Cat Rental, compact equipment and parts businesses, according to Neil Carbaugh, Carolina Cat’s vice president of rental services and compact construction equipment.

He added that with the store being close to I-85, it can easily be supported by the larger Carolina Cat parts hub in Charlotte to the south, and secondarily from the Greensboro store to the north. As a result, customers can get parts for any machine, typically within 24 hours.

Via the interstate, the Salisbury facility is approximately 50 mi. from each of the other two dealerships.

According to the company, the new Salisbury location was built to include: • New and used compact equipment, as well as sales and financing.

• A space for customers to rent top brands of aerial, compaction, traffic control, material handling, compressed air, and concrete equipment and attachments.

• Access to the largest and newest earthmoving rental fleet in the state.

• Four service bays to support both rental and customer-owned compact equipment.

• Experienced parts personnel to support all customer ordering needs.

• A stocked parts warehouse and daily shuttles from Carolina Cat’s main warehouse in Charlotte to minimize customer down time.

• A showroom displaying a wide variety of hand tools, consumables, and novelty items.

• Cat and non-Cat hydraulic hose-building capabilities.

“This is a great store for supporting the compact customer that owns equipment as well as anything else that we carry in the rental fleet — anything from a plate tamp, to a scissor lift, to a 100,000-lb. excavator can be obtained from this location,” Carbaugh said. “The excavator may not be housed in Salisbury, but it can be dispatched from here.”

Carolina Cat’s rental fleet is divided almost equally between Caterpillar equipment and those from other brands, Carbaugh added.

“We carry all the things that you would expect to get from any national rental company,” he said.

Larger Branch to Be Built in Next Few Years Carolina Cat’s return to Salisbury was planned to take advantage of the dramatic growth there and in other towns along the interstate in central North Carolina, according to Carbaugh.

The communities of Concord, Kannapolis and China Grove, all between Charlotte and Salisbury, have seen rapid development in Carolina Cat also offers allied prodrecent years, as have the cities of Lexington, Thomasville and High ucts for customers’ rental needs.

Point, located along I-85 from Salisbury to Greensboro.

The new Salisbury branch currently operates out of a building that used to serve as a Food Town (now Food Lion) supermarket, the second such store ever built following the grocer’s founding in the city in 1957.

“This was an easy way for us to get into Salisbury much more quickly before finding land and getting permits to build a brick-andmortar facility, which is what we are eventually going to do,” Carbaugh said. “It is a good way to start getting back to where everything began for our company.”

Carbaugh said that prior to Carolina Cat’s move to the building, it had been home to another equipment rental company for 20-25 years, proving, he said, that it could work for Carolina Cat on an interim basis.

Carolina Cat’s plans for Salisbury include opening a larger, permanent facility that Carbaugh said would be “purpose-built to best serve our customers’ needs. We would just transition from this location at some point in the next three to four years to a building that can better accommodate greater capabilities.”

With the temporary Salisbury facility now open and flourishing, Carolina Cat can concentrate on identifying other possible branch locations in the region to extend the footprint of its equipment sales and rental operations.

When asked if those facilities would simply be rental stores or fullservice locations like those in Greensboro and Charlotte, Carbaugh said, “We are still doing some business planning for that, but for right now, the idea is for them to be full-service branches in the WinstonSalem and Gastonia areas.”

Proud Tradition of Service to Western N.C. In 1929, three years after the founding of Carolina Tractor & Equipment (CTE) — now the Weisiger Group — its owners were told

by Caterpillar that they could not be both a building contractor and a distributor of Cat machines at the same time, meaning they had to sell the distributorship, according to Ed Weisiger Sr., the now retired chairman emeritus of today’s Carolina Cat. “Caterpillar went to my dad, [L.M. Weisiger], who had a dealership in Asheville and a territory that included everywhere west of the Catawba River,” he said. “Dad gave [them] $60,000 in 1930 to be paid over two years for the business, and that’s what it took to get the Weisigers in the Carolina Tractor business.”

Over the next nine decades, Carolina Cat powered its way through the effects of economic depressions, recessions, wars and other market turbulence to establish itself as a well-run business that continues to grow in prosperity, a fact that instills immense pride in Ed Weisiger Sr., who started working for the family business as a young man about 70 years ago.

Today, the company is under the guidance of his son and third-generation leader, Edward Weisiger Jr., who serves as chair and CEO of Weisiger Group (the parent company of Carolina Cat), and Mike Tropsha, senior vice president and general manager of Carolina Cat. The elder Weisiger said that the company has always tried to invest as much of its profits as it could back into the business and worked hard to treat its employees like family.

“My father started the company with 16 employees, and now we have about 2,000,” he said. “You take care of your customers, and your customers will take care of you. There are a lot of families around Carolina Cat for us to feed, and we take pride in that.”

As the 100th anniversary of Carolina Cat approaches in three years’ time, the Weisiger family’s wise decision making, and financial stability is undoubtedly why the company has literally stood the test of time.  CEG (All photographs in this article are Copyright 2023 Construction Equipment Guide.

CGA Initiative Releases PILOT: New Visionary GIS Case Study Common Ground Alliance (CGA), the national nonprofit trade association dedicated to protecting underground utility lines, people who dig near them and their communities, recently released a groundbreaking case study as part of its Next Practices Initiative titled “PILOT: Improving Efficiency and Reducing Damages by Providing TicketLevel Visualizations of Underground Facilities to Designers, Locators and Excavators.”

The case study introduces the ambitious Minnesota Utilities Mapping Project (MUMP), which aims to provide real-time, ticket-level mapped visualizations of underground utilities to accredited designers, locators and excavators to improve the damage prevention system’s efficiency and outcomes. The pilot project leveraged widely accessible technology to create a first-of-its-kind tool that has the potential to revolutionize viewing of underground utility maps for major stakeholder groups.

The pilot program was led by Gopher State One Call (GSOC) with input from the Minnesota Geospatial Advisory Council to address the persistent challenge of inaccurate or incomplete maps, which contribute to a significant number of damages to buried utilities.

The pilot program uses an open-source software solution that connects to the GSOC ticketing system and captures all relevant ticket information, including the geographic area indicated on the ticket. The program then returns a digital report of the area of interest in the form of a visualization of buried facility data, which can be accessible to end users, including designers, locators, excavators and others, for the life of the 811 ticket.

“We are proud to have designed a scalable tool that will improve the safety of industry stakeholders and communities, as well as the longevity of our vital underground infrastructure,” said Barb Cederberg, chief operations officer of Gopher State One Call. “We’re excited about the possibilities that this technology has to improve damage outcomes as we look to build out the program on a state and then possibly national level.”

This case study was documented by CGA’s Next Practices Initiative, which seeks to encourage innovation and new practices to address the most critical challenges facing the damage prevention industry. The Next Practices Initiative identified “pursuing an accurate, accessible GIS-based mapping system/database,” as one of the opportunities for improvement in the damage prevention system with the greatest potential return on investment for the industry. In an effort to encourage the deployment of new technology, CGA provided a small grant to MUMP to help develop an opensource software module for broader use based on the unprecedented pilot program. see CGA page 27

Cat Celebrates 130 Years of Earthmoving Innovation in Wis. The year — 1893. Only 44 of today’s 50 states formed the union, and Grover Cleveland was elected the country’s 24th president. College basketball was in its infancy, holding its first official game, and the Bucyrus Steam Shovel and Dredge Company opened a new manufacturing facility in South Milwaukee, Wis., to improve and expand its production facilities.

Since this point in history, the management decisions and equipment produced in South Milwaukee have not only changed the construction and mining industries but also the course of history.

In the early 1900s, Bucyrus-produced equipment was a major contributor to the monumental excavation projects of the time.

“Dredges were used as part of the California gold rush, and shovels were a part of the vast Mesabi Iron Ranges,” said Shawn Paap, commercial manager of Cat electric rope shovels (ERS). “The New York State barge canal enlargement project, the largest U.S. earthmoving project between 19021912, also used Bucyrus dredges.”

The company’s 40- to 50-ton steam-powered shovels played a significant role in building the Panama Canal, one of the most exciting projects in human history. Over the course of the project, 77 shovels produced in South Milwaukee were used to construct the canal. When combined with the shovels produced by Marion Steam Shovel Company, a Bucyrus heritage company, 101 of the 102 shovels used in the project were from Bucyrus.

World War II saw unprecedented demand for excavators in Europe, and virtually 100 percent of the company’s entire output from 1942 to 1945 was devoted to the war effort.

Post-war, the company embarked on a $2 million project to increase plant capacity by 20 percent.

By the middle of the 20th century, Bucyrus was a global company with an expanded product offering, and more than 74,000 Bucyrus machines had been produced and used in more than 166 countries.

Important Innovations Central to the strategy of moving production to South Milwaukee was to increase manufacturing efficiency of its core large machinery, such as rope shovels and draglines. Over the last 130 years, more than 32,000 machines have been produced at this location, and to this day, massive Cat electric rope shovels are being produced by the plant.

The heritage of today’s Cat 7495 and 7495HF models used for the mining industry began as railroad shovels. Between 18821930, more than 1,850 railroad shovels were produced. Those first models weren’t mobile by today’s standards, being pushed on rails or rollers. This manual process to move the

massive machines didn’t meet the efficiency needs of mining.

A series of early innovations originating from the South Milwaukee facility helped to improve rope shovel efficiency and durability. Borrowing Caterpillar’s technology of the 1920s, the steam-powered shovels adopted track-style rotating belts to significantly increase mobility. Prior to the 1930s, the entire rope shovel structure was riveted, but those rivets were replaced by welds to improve durability.

A major transition for rope shovels and

the industry was the shift from steam power to electric. Bucyrus pioneered the use of electricity as a power source more than 100 years ago, as early as 1917. The advent of a new DC electrical power system in 1919 ushered in the infancy of today’s modern ERS design, and the transition from steam power to electric was completed by 1939.

“As today’s mining industry increases its focus on the electrification of equipment to reduce carbon emissions and boost efficiency, Caterpillar is proud to be the leader in a product that has been electrified for several

The company’s 40- to 50-ton steam-powered shovels played a significant role in building the Panama Canal, one of the most exciting projects in human history.

decades,” said Caterpillar Product Value Stream Manager Flor Rivas.

Revolutionizing the market for Bucyrus and the industry at large, machine design transitioned to much less complicated AC electric motors from the rudimentary DC drive system.

“AC drive motors were simpler, lasted longer, required less maintenance, worked faster and more efficiently, and delivered greater power than DC motors,” said Mike Haws, technical steward of Cat electric rope shovels.

“The introduction of insulated gate bipolar transistor [IGBT] fuseless technology led to the evolution into digital gate turnoff [GTO] systems. And a partnership with Siemens in the 1970s put Bucyrus on the cutting edge of AC drive technology, pushing drive system availability upward to 99 percent.”

Caterpillar Continues Rich History Since Caterpillar acquired the Bucyrus product line in 2011, an excellent ERS product has been elevated to the next level of safety, productivity and reliability by making the machines safer, easier to access and maintain, perform better under extreme conditions, efficiently integrate technology and deliver higher availability, the company said.

Caterpillar introduced a liquid cooled motion regulator cabinet shortly after the acquisition to more efficiently dissipate the heat generated by electrical components.

This enabled the global product to reliably operate in extreme temperatures ranging from -40 F to 120 F and at altitudes reaching 17,220 ft. without derating. The company also introduced a faster propel transfer switch to cut lag time by 70 percent, improving productivity. see CATERPILLAR page 70

Construction Takes Zoo’s Environment Into Consideration

By Cindy Riley CEG CORRESPONDENT

Scheduled to open in 2026, the highly-anticipated Asia continent marks the North Carolina Zoo’s first major expansion since its North American wing opened in 1994. When complete, the $75 million expansion will feature a variety of animals and include a 300-seat indoor café overlooking the tiger’s habitat.

“The addition of a new continent has been a dream of ours for many years,” said Patricia Simmons, zoo director and CEO. “The residents of North Carolina and beyond will have this beautiful experience for decades to come. Families and children will learn and connect with wildlife and wild places in new and interactive ways. I’m also excited guests will see animals in progressive, novel habitats designed and built by experts.”

Simmons said the undertaking would not be possible without a great deal of planning and coordination.

“This unique construction project requires expertise and partnership among various disciplines. We are fortunate to work with Rodgers Builders and have found them to be a professional and responsive partner.”

The popular tourist attraction, located on 2,600 wooded acres just south of Asheboro in Randolph County, is the world’s largest natural habitat zoo. Committed to wildlife conservation and community education, it’s one of two statesupported zoos in the state, and is an agency of the North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources.

Diane Villa, director of communications and marketing, said reaction to the new addition is one of excitement and anticipation.

“The community, including the state of North Carolina, has been very positive and supportive. The Asia region will be 12.5 acres once completed, including a new tram stop.”

Komodo dragons, warty pigs, otters, cranes, king cobras, vultures and gibbons are among the planned species visitors will have the opportunity to view once the ribbon is cut. Asia continent also will include an overhead tiger walk.

Work on the project began in August 2022. Those taking part in the groundbreaking ceremony included North

As crews continue the tasks needed to bring Asia continent to life, they are ever mindful of the zoo’s sensitive environment.

Carolina First Lady Kristin Cooper; Secretary Reid Wilson, N.C. Department of Natural and Cultural Resources; Secretary Pamela Cashwell, N.C. Department of Administration; N.C. Senator Dave Craven; N.C. Representative Allen McNeill; and zoo officials.

Some of the biggest challenges for crews on the job are the logistics of the project in relation to the overall operation of an active zoo.

“The main road for the tram to transport visitors daily to various locations of the zoo is now being shared with large trucks transporting materials to the construction site,” said Eric Teckenbrock, senior superintendent of Rodgers Builders. “The project is being constructed on a mountain, requiring a strategic thought process for rock removal and a steady flow of the project timeline. see ZOO page 66

Western N.C.’s Valley Precast Supplies MagnumStone to Region

Valley Precast gets ready for another busy day at its Waynesville, N.C., operation. The Cat wheel loader loads the sand and gravel where it will be mixed with water, cement and admixtures into the cement trucks. The products will be mixed and placed into the forms.

By Eric Olson CEG CONTRIBUTING EDITOR

Since he was a youngster, Jason Ball always enjoyed being outside and using equipment, whether it was for farming or construction. By the time he had become a young adult, he decided that construction was the career for him, and he wasted little time getting started.

“I had an opportunity when I got out of high school to purchase my first dump truck,” Ball said. “I bought it with money I had saved, and my uncle helped me by cosigning a note, something for which I am very thankful. From there, I went from dump trucks to trackhoes to dozers.”

With that equipment, he successfully built his first company, Appalachian Siteworks Inc. (ASI) in Waynesville, N.C., southwest of Asheville, into one of the region’s best site development firms.

ASI is noted for delivering reliable sitework and civil construction services with projects across the state. Additionally, the company is an unlimited licensed general contractor and an approved prime contractor for the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) as well as for multiple local municipalities. Its bonding capa-

bilities also allow ASI to take on commercial infrastructure and underground utility work.

Then, in 2021, with ASI in top form, Ball started a sister company to it that also seems well on its way to a successful future.

Valley Precast was formed by Ball, its president and owner, to be the regional producer and supplier of MagnumStone Retaining Wall systems. Based in Canada, MagnumStone is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of these super-strong, dependable, and eye-pleasing concrete block walls.

Ball’s curiosity about MagnumStone was piqued when he saw an advertisement online about the product, leading him to read all he could about its advantages, he said, before calling Alain Michaud, the president of MagnumStone, about becoming a franchisee.

Ball describes the precast business, and MagnumStone specifically, as a business that he and his group of approximately 25 employees have really enjoyed working in.

Joining him in running the business is his wife, Brandy, who serves as vice president, and Jackie King, Valley Precast’s estimator.

“We purchased the production rights for western North Carolina to make the blocks here at our site on Jonathan Creek Road in

The husband-and-wife team, Jason and Brandy Ball, have built a thriving business.

Waynesville,” he said, noting that ASI is also within the same building. “Currently, Valley Precast is the MagnumStone producer for the area between Knoxville, Tenn., east to Hickory, N.C., but we sell them across both the Carolinas and Tennessee.”

MagnumStone’s big block retaining wall system offers high-strength, everlasting solutions due to its advanced hollow core block design. These engineered large precast blocks also use 40 percent less concrete than solid block systems to deliver supreme versatility that easily fits any retaining wall design or application, according to the company.

Ball added that the retaining walls are an ideal fit for the mountainous area that makes up his MagnumStone territory and have a tremendous curb appeal to people. Plus, expert engineering goes into the design of gravity-walls, which provide a built-in stability.

For instance, MagnumStone’s gravitywall extenders that Valley Precast uses are designed to strengthen complex block walls that contain tight corners with limited space and varying loads.

“If it is a gravity-wall system you are building, you can install those extenders and that wall is not going anywhere,” he said. “In

addition, the weight of the material on top helps hold it in place. Engineers really love and work well with this product.”

Various Elevations No Problem for MagnumStone Walls The geography that encompasses Valley Precast’s territory, which includes eastern Tennessee and western North Carolina, ranges from low hills to high mountains and deep valleys — just the type of area where a product like MagnumStone would seem to be in demand.

As a result, Ball and his crew at Valley Precast have built gravity walls for both commercial and residential clients across the region.

“Very often, a retaining wall is built right against a slope or a bank,” he said. “These blocks are filled with crushed gravel that allows any water behind the wall to drain through it so that there is no pressure on the structure. We have retaining walls next to creeks, around houses, in commercial areas — anywhere you can think of. Some of these walls are used to hold home developments on one level that are 40 feet higher than another level.

“The possibilities are endless due to the see VALLEY page 36

Rotastar Boasts ‘Revolutionary’ Polyurethane Flexible Stars The Rotastar screening bucket is designed with revolutionary polyurethane flexible stars mounted to heavy-duty steel shafts that agitate and rotate material with no pinching or crushing inside of the rugged heavy duty steel bucket. Working on a concept very similar to a trommel screen, complete material separation is achieved.

The Rotastar screening system has applications that are limited only by the user’s imagination, including topsoil production, separating waste, turf, roots, gypsum, wet heavy clay and many other materials. The ability to adjust the rotation speed of the polyurethane stars as well as adjusting the star spacing allows users to customize the output size of the material to meet their needs.

Because the polyurethane stars are flexible, they absorb a tremendous amount of energy; as a result, the screening process is very quiet and larger particle sizes are handled with ease.

The unit is not designed to crush or beat materials; rather, it’s designed to separate materials. Therefore, if you are working with separating dirty materials that includes paper, plastic or other garbage, it does not pull the garbage through the fingers and attempt to shred it.

Instead, it separates the garbage and leaves it in

the bucket with the tailings.

The Rotastar design is so advanced it only takes one pass through the screener to achieve complete separation of the desirable material from the unusable tailings, the manufacturer said.

The owners of A & D Equipment are second-generation excavating contractors who use the product every day and are confident of the high production and durability that the product brings to the table.

A & D Equipment is confident that the Rotastar will bring the following advantages: • Eliminate conventional excavating costs — When utilizing the Rotastar technology, the costs of loading, transporting, tipping and processing are significantly reduced. It is the first excavator-mounted polyurethane star screener in the United States.

• Gain access to the toughest job sites — Compact and easy to transport, giving you great site access. Easy installation with no case line necessary and only one-way hammer circuit required.

• Rugged construction with easy maintenance — Built with the best materials for reliability. Easy to remove transmission guard, simsee ROTASTAR page 34

Donna LaFata, president, and Anthony LaFata, vice president, bring more than 50 years of excavating experience to A & D Equipment. Their first Rotastar is still in use on their job sites every day.

Lightweight and flexible polyurethane stars rotate in one direction and agitate the materials without pinching or crushing, allowing for complete separation and quiet operation.

The Rotastar is manufactured with exceptional materials and added wear plates to further extend longevity.

ple heavy-duty chain drive and the unique Rotastar design prevents shaft wear.

• Screen wet or dry materials — The flexible Rotastar is gentle on fragile material and ideal for topsoil, waste, turf, roots, gypsum and many other materials. The Rotastar is ideal for utility contractors and pipeline contractors to create bedding right on site, eliminating the cost and space of bringing in a screening plant or paying to have bedding material brought on site. If you are doing some excavation but have no need for topsoil, you can use the Rotastar to make topsoil for resale.

• Custom solutions available — You can tailor your output size with a variety of star, collar and spacer options, enabling any size company to take advantage of the right fit for them.

• Add the Steelwrist tiltrotator — Achieve 360degree attachment rotation with 45-degree tilt, high flow hydraulics and the safety of Front Pin Lock technology.

Valley Precast Unmolds 30 MagnumStone Blocks Per Day VALLEY from page 30

various elevation changes found in western North and South Carolina.”

The concrete blocks that Valley Precast makes are not currently used on highways and interstates, he added, because the company is still in the process of getting state certified to do so.

“Once that happens at our concrete plant, we can start marketing to the states of North Carolina and Tennessee,” he said.

MagnumStone is not the only precast wall system available, but to Ball’s mind it has a few advantages over its competitors.

“Number one, I think our blocks are the best-looking ones on the market, and, secondly, we have an edge in that our gravity-wall system has the mass extender that holds each block in place,” he said. “Plus, you can set this entire block-wall system with just a mini-excavator — there is no need for a larger machine to do that. I feel like that makes our product very efficient.”

Installation of MagnumStone’s hollow core system also is easier as each large precast concrete retaining wall block covers 8 sq. ft. Individual concrete blocks are 2 ft. high, 4 ft. long and 2 ft. thick, Ball added, while the extenders come in 2-ft. and 4-ft. sizes “so you can use them at differing intervals depending on the engineering of the wall.”

The forms are lined with a release agent and are ready for the cement to be added. After a cure time of 12 hours, the blue forms are removed and the product is ready.

The finished blocks are ready for shipment.

Young Production Company Making Great Strides After Valley Precast took the necessary steps to produce MagnumStone’s products, the result was that it used a block-mold package to turn out 30 blocks per day, said Ball.

“First, we bought a concrete and its own concrete truck.

After that, we went to a Redi-Mix plant and picked up the concrete to turn it into blocks,” he added. “We investigated making concrete ourselves on site, and once that got going it helped us tremendously in terms of time. Later, we built our own concrete plant to produce MagnumStone blocks in house and with that plant, we increased our block production to 40 per day now, all of which we sell each week.

“That is a good number for us, but I also feel that there is some potential for growth,” he added. “People love the product and having it installed where they need it.

Valley Precast uses a form in which to pour its concrete to make a finished MagnumStone block. Assisting the block manufacturing are wheel loaders to load the hoppers at the concrete plant, he said, along with a front-discharge concrete mixer truck.

Although still in its early years of operation, Valley Precast is likely on an upward surge in popularity with more people discovering both the strength and the beauty MagnumStone Retaining Walls can bring to their home, business or development.

“We truly believe in these products and enjoy working with the people that set the walls,” Ball said, adding that he attributes his company’s growth and success to the fact it has “so many good people, such a good product, and the good Lord has blessed us — that is the number one thing.”

“I currently don’t have a CDL,” said Miller, who also does not carry a HAZMAT endorsement. “That was my first concern when I interviewed. But, with the Thunder Creek MTT 920, we’re at 115 gallons of fuel per tank, which is under the 119-gallon threshold. Just to make sure, we filled the trailer up completely and put it on a scale. It’s under the [CDL] weight limit, which is great for someone like me with just a regular driver’s license.

I can get the job done without having to worry about any extra qualifications. It’s also great for a lot of business owners, because the demand for workers is extremely high right now.”

Miller put more than 12,000 miles on his truck and trailer in the first four months the company owned it — and it has been front and center in keeping the company’s equipment fueled and greased.

“On some of our bigger jobs, things can get busy,” said Miller. “At one job I’m thinking of, we started with a D-11, 330, 336 and a 380 all moving on the same site. I was dumping 600 gallons of fuel every day and filling a 1,000-gallon tank that was there. I would make a run once a day — no matter what — and sometimes twice a day. To keep machines moving at full potential, I had to be on my toes.”

The focus also is not just on the big equipment — each site includes countless pieces of compact equipment that are critical to uptime, even if they take lower quantities of fuel.

Thunder Creek multi-tank trailers allow business owners and fleet managers to haul bulk diesel to their job sites without requiring a CDL or HAZMAT endorsement from the driver.

Since 1962, the James A. Rogers Excavating company near Little Rock, Ark., has been providing developers with site preparation, planning and earthmoving services.

The continued success and growth of the company has led to more job sites spread further apart — which creates all new challenges for two of the most important tasks that face heavy equipment fleet managers: greasing and fueling.

Stellar: OTR Tire Service Truck MTT920 Multi-Tank Trailer The Stellar TM16160/28000 OTR tire service truck fits the needs of OTR tire service technicians who need something that can handle the largest, heaviest tires.

A 315-degree turntable rotation system driven by a worm gear and pinion system ensures solid performance. This carrier features a lifting capacity of 28,000 lbs. at 10 ft. and 17,200 lbs. at 16 ft. 3 in. of total reach without the tire manipulator.

Stellar’s modified A-frame stabilizer design is an industry first, the manufacturer said.

The Stellar TM16160/28000 OTR offers the stability and durability of A-frame stabilizers with the diversity of out-and-downstyle outriggers. Modifying the A-frame geometry and using dual cylinders allows Aframe stability at differing widths.

The tire manipulator offers more than 143 degrees of articulation and 315 degrees rotation, along with continuous rotating pads.

With a clamping width of 158 in., it can easily handle tire and tire rim combinations up to 16,500 lbs. The parallelogram design gives it considerable clamping width, but also the ability to clamp tires as small as 40 in.

Keeps Iron Fueled, Greased ROGERS from page 38

Service body features include a 20 ft. long body, heavy-duty steel construction, stainless-steel rotary slam latches, slide-top doors on all tool compartments, recessed skirtmounted halogen floodlights and rubbermounted running lights. The flat body has 8 D-ring tiedowns, and the entire body is undercoated.

Carrier features include a fully enclosed extension boom cylinder, hexagon-shaped secondary and extension boom, integralmounted pump and PTO on the chassis and load-holding counterbalance valves. There is a standard fully proportional radio remote control and manual controls on the TM16160/28000 with the ability to do multiple functions at once. Rotation is accomplished through a turntable bearing.

“There are also lots of job sites where we have small equipment running and there aren’t enough service trucks to fuel them,” said Miller. “Every one or two days, I swing by those jobs and fill up the smaller equipment.”

The rear utility box with air compressor and 35-lb. greasing kit also has been critical for the company’s fleet management activities. While built primarily for fuel, the Thunder Creek trailer helps considerably in daily tasks critical to keeping equipment up and running — especially in hot and dusty Arkansas summers.

“I’ll get set up and they’ll bring me a piece of iron,” said Miller. “The operator will jump off, grab the fuel, I’ll grab filters. I’ll blow filters. They’ll usually put the filters back in as I’m greasing the equipment. So, me and an operator basically attack it. I think the most I’ve done is 27 to 30 machines in a day.

It was a good day. And then some days I get 10 to 12 just depending on my traveling. So, with the amount of equipment we have, you could do this every single day and it still take you three days to touch the machine again.”

It also has helped Miller serve as a good Samaritan from time to time.

“I actually was pulled on the side of the road to change the tire for somebody one day,” he says. “There was an older couple pulling in — they needed a tire change. So, I used my Thunder Creek to do a tire service.

It was funny because I wasn’t trying to get caught, but I got caught, and the boss drove by and snapped a picture of it. I said ‘Sorry, boss.’ He’s like, ‘No, I wasn’t mad at you — that was awesome.’

Whether pumping thousands of gallons of diesel over the course of a busy day or helping save the day for local elderly couples in need of a hand — the addition of the Thunder Creek MTT 920 has only helped James A Rogers Excavating do good.

“It would take at least two employees all day to fuel the same amount with service trucks. I can do the same work in a single day with the Thunder Creek. It only took me about 45-minutes to read the manual and understand what I needed to do. The trailer is very user-friendly. It looks complex, but it works with common sense. Plus, it looks great with the truck. I love it.” 

FHWA Offers Resources to Aid DOTs With Energy Projects

The move to right-of-way solar infrastructure saves states money, creates green jobs and contributes to a clean energy future.

ENERGY from page 8

The Georgia project became a model for the FHWA to set a consistent national program to encourage and support these types of projects, said Kelly.

Tina Hodges, an FHWA environmental protection specialist, and Amy Plovnick, a USDOT community planner, foresee technological advances. The two tracked solar highway infrastructure programs across the country and highlighted advanced DOT programs for an article in Public Roads magazine.

They found that once Maine DOT got on board, the result was three solar projects in Augusta, Maine, developed with Central Main Power. The three will generate eight megawatts of energy, enough to power 1,850 homes and reduce state electricity costs by $5.5 million over the next 20 years.

They should reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 8 million lbs. annually, the equivalent of 8,393 barrels of oil.

Instead of shelling out funds to mow green turf, the Maine DOT receives $56,000 a year from the solar developer, Synergy, who leases the property.

In 2007, Oregon directed state agencies to meet 100 percent of their electrical needs in renewable energy by 2025.

That pushed the state DOT to implement the first large-scale solar roadway projects in the country as demonstration projects, noted Hodges and Plovnick.

By the next year, the state completed a 104-kilowatt, 594panel project at the interchange of I-5 and I-25 outside of Portland, Ore. Because of a successful deal with Portland General Electric on that site, four years later the partners installed a large-sale project at a rest area along I-5. A 1.75megawatt project, it features nearly 7,000 solar panels on a 7-acre state-owned site. The solar field produces about 2 million kilowatt-hours of renewable energy each year.

Massachusetts DOT researched the potential of ROW solar in 2012, identifying and vetting approximately 60 potential sites in the process. A contract was awarded two years later for a 6-megawatt solar ROW project across mul-

tiple locations.

The majority of Massachusetts ROW sites are along the state turnpike, I-90. One site is located on Route 3 in Plymouth.

“MassDOT’s solar projects were public-private partnerships and required no upfront funding from the state,” said Hodges and Plovnick.

The state leased the sites to the developer for 20 years and agreed to purchase all the energy generated through power purchase agreements (PPA).

“MassDOT also benefits from a net metering policy in which the agency receives credits on identified utility accounts,” the two said. “The developer benefits from the guaranteed sale of electricity to MassDOT and through state renewable energy credits and federal tax incentives.”

As of August 2018, the eight sites combined produced 10,750 megawatt-hours of electricity, saving MassDOT more than $1 million. The state agency expects to save approximately $525,000 annually, in addition to $75,000 coming in from annual lease payments.

Maryland DOT began installation of solar power at 35 MDOT sites including buildings and parking lots. The state agency licensed land to the developer who constructed, owns, operates and maintains the renewable energy infrastructure.

“MDOT will buy power at a fixed rate for 20 to 25 years, and expects electricity cost savings of 30 to 40 percent,” said Hodge and Plovnick.

In addition, the program is expected to generate 298 construction and 28 operations and maintenance jobs, with more positions added as solar expands.

“This project allows MDOT to save money, support jobs and create a renewable energy source,” said Pete K. Rahn, then Maryland transportation secretary.

The 35 sites generate 46,000 megawatt-hours per year, or approximately 12 percent of the state’s annual electricity usage. The energy will be used at MDOT facilities or by neighboring residents or businesses that are part of Maryland’s Community Solar Pilot Program.

Full Federal Support This past spring, the fed added $2.5 billion to the $5 billion in place to support installation of electric chargers every 50 miles of interstate.

Kelly sees forward movement: “The transportation sector is now intertwined with the energy sector,” she said.

FHWA fully supports highway renewable energy. Through resource development and workshop funding, the agency encourages information sharing.

Early right-of-way solar users and those exploring renewables provide lessons based on their experiences for those considering future options.

“By sharing their challenges and successes with their peers, state DOTs are learning from each other,” said FHWA. Most state renewable energy projects are ground-mounted panels along the right-of-way (ROW) and on the roofs of carports and buildings at rest areas. Some small wind turbines can be spotted at rest areas. FHWA foresees solar roadway surfaces, photovoltaic noise barriers and under-bridge turbines.

“As technologies advance, opportunities may arise to incorporate additional types of renewable energy beyond pilot projects,” Hodges and Plovnick said.

Examples include solar roadway surfaces, photovoltaic noise barriers, tidal turbines under bridges or micro-wind turbines.

“We’re thrilled to see DOTs generating clean, renewable energy on their properties where feasible,” said Michael Culp, FHWA sustainability team leader. “This gives us an opportunity to help them save money and also protect the natural environment.”

In fact, FHWA offers resources designed to aid state DOTs in developing renewable energy projects, including solar power infrastructure. As interest in right-of-way renewable energy grows at the state level and available technologies expand, the agency plans to be visible and accessible to DOTs.  CEG

Cedarapids Celebrates Century-Worth of Innovation Established in 1923, the Cedarapids of today has been built upon an impressive century-old history that, from the solid foundation laid by founder Howard Hall, has seen it grow through The Great Depression of 1929 and World War II, continuing to evolve through multiple acquisitions, pioneering innovations and steadfast dedication to its customers, employees and community.

The brand now sits within the Terex MPS business of Terex Materials Processing, a global manufacturer of materials processing and lifting machinery with a leading portfolio of specialty equipment brands serving the aggregates, environmental, concrete, materials handling and lifting markets.

The roots of Cedarapids were planted in the 1920s, a period that saw a concerted effort from the government to improve infrastructure across the United States — through the “Good Roads Movement” of 1922 — to cope with the rising popularity of automobiles. Back then, Iowa had only 334 miles of paved roads.

“Get Iowa out of the mud” was a slogan heard throughout the state and echoed across the country.

Recognizing the demand for the construction of paved roads, Howard Hall and his business partner, John Jay, saw an opportunity and established Iowa Manufacturing Co. in 1923 to develop road construction equipment.

Early road construction equipment was clumsy, hard to transport and costly.

Multiple machines ground aggregate, a basic road construction material consisting of crushed gravel, stone and sand. Hall and Jay discovered a young engineer Guy Frazee to develop the “One

Piece Outfit”, a portable aggregate plant that combined crushing, conveying and screening.

Consolidating all stone processing into one machine increased efficiency and alleviated much of the work required to process aggregate at road construction sites. It also

enabled stone to be crushed right at the construction site and dramatically reduce the cost of transporting equipment to different sites.

This signature piece of equipment streamlined road construction and played a vital role in this industry throughout the first half

of the twentieth century.

While innovation, durability and quality spurred Iowa Manufacturing’s initial growth, the company’s commitment to customers distinguished it from competition.

New Impact Crusher Features All-Electric Drive Concept With the mobile impact crusher MOBIREX MR 130i PRO, Kleemann presents a new family member from the PRO line. The plant is used as a primary and secondary crusher and combines output, precision and sustainability.

Powerful in Natural Stone, Recycling The new impact crusher covers a very wide range of applications: from soft to medium-hard natural stone to the widest possible range of recycling applications, such as the processing of concrete, rubble and asphalt. With an hourly output of up to 661 tph, the plant meets the requirements in the high-performance range.

With its heavy rotor and powerful electric 335 hp drive together with efficient pre screening, the crushing unit impresses and guarantees a very high and stable throughput, the manufacturer said. Due to the Continuous Feed System CFS, continuous crusher utilization is provided.

The mobile impact crusher MOBIREX MR 130i is used as a primary and secondary crusher in natural stone and recycling and is the new family member from the Kleemann PRO line.

Sustainable Solutions Protect Operators, Environment Due to its all-electric drive concept EDRIVE with the option of an external power supply, the MR130i PRO from Kleemann can be operated on site free of emissions and thus guarantees a low power consumption per ton of final product. A further advantage of the electric drive: hydraulic oil is only required for setting and setup functions, which reduces the environmental risk and maintenance costs.

If the plant is operated via the diesel generator, the power- and load-dependent fan reduces not only the noise emission also the fuel consumption. The optional power pack housing guarantees a further significant noise reduction.

Due to water spraying at relevant points such as the crusher inlet, the discharge conveyors and the post screening unit as well as various belt

covers, the dust development can be reduced considerably, the manufacturer said.

flow can be controlled depending on the material.

Optimum Final Product Quality Top product quality is expected from an impact crusher. This is what the MOBIREX MR 130i PRO delivers together with a high production capacity. This is guaranteed not only by the tried-and-tested robust crushing unit with its two impact toggles and versatile rotor ledge options, but also by the 11 sq. yd. large, optional double-deck post screening unit (in the upper deck). This makes it possible, with a single machine and without an additional screening plant, to produce two classified final grain sizes.

The use of optional wind sifter can optimize the final product quality even further by removing contamination in the material such as the lightweight materials wood and plastic. The air

Smart Operating Concept for Simple Plant Operation The operation of crushing plants is becoming more and more sophisticated.

With the intuitive holistic operating concept SPECTIVE from Kleemann, the operator receives different tools to facilitate his typical workday. The 12 in. touch panel is characterized by simple user guidance and visualization. With the large SPECTIVE radio remote control, the plants are moved from the low loader and the setup procedure can be carried out conveniently and at a safe distance from the machine. The small SPECTIVE radio remote control can be used to execute all relevant functions comfortably from the excavator.

The digital solution SPECTIVE CONNECT facilitates the work site digitalization of the MOBIREX MR 130i PRO. All important plant data is transferred to the smartphone and reporting is made easier. This means less downtime, higher productivity and more revenue.

MOBIBELT Mobile Stackers Optimized for Logistics Nowadays, modern crushing and screening plants regulate material streams within the plant to a large extent automatically.

Nevertheless, machine operators still have a strong influence on the final product quality and the daily output. They control the input with their excavators and wheel loaders, i.e. the loading of stone or recycling material.

Users also play the main role with regard to output: They co-ordinate the final products by means of building up stockpiles, intermediate storage areas and loading.

With the new stackers MOBIBELT MBT 20i and MBT 24i from Kleemann, logistics can now be organized flexibly and adapted to the respective situation, the manufacturer said.

Short Set-Up Times, High Feed Capacities The mobile stackers MOBIBELT MBT 20(i) and MBT 24(i) from Kleemann make large stockpiles and improved work site logistics Both stackers are equipped with a large possible.

Superior Industries Reveals New Look for Its Well-Known Chevron Wing Pulley Superior Industries Inc., a manufacturer and global supplier of bulk material processing and handling systems, revealed a new look for its well-known Chevron Wing Pulley at ConExpo-Con/AGG 2023.

The CEMA-rated model is now designed and manufactured without a rounded cap on the wings.

“Users are going to get the same benefits of the original design, but the CEMA class gets a bit of a price reduction without that rounded bar,” said Mary Erholz, vice president of marketing and conveying product manager at Superior. “It’s also going to increase the service life of Chevron Pulleys, since the bare wings offer so much more wearable material.”

The v-shaped Chevron Pulley revolutionized expectations for wing performance after being invented by Superior in 2007. Traditional straight wing pulleys were always prone to trapping material, bending prematurely and notorious for damaging conveyor belting, according to Superior.

The Chevron Pulley’s benefits: • Deflects oncoming fugitive material • Fewer rocks trapped between wings • No trapped rocks to puncture belting • Constant contact between pulley and belt reduces noise

• Less abusive to belt splices and clips CEMA Duty Chevron Pulleys are manufactured in diameters up to 36-in. and face widths up to 78-in. Mine Duty, Super Duty and custom engineered classes also are available.

For more information, visit www.superior-ind.com.  CEMA Duty Chevron Pulleys are manufactured in diameters up to 36-in. and face widths up to 78-in. Mine Duty, Super Duty and custom engineered classes also are available.

Present for Cedarapids Milestone RAM Course Covers CEDARAPIDS from page 45

Manufacturing worked with customers to prevent repossession of equipment by extending loans and accepting debtreduction payments as low as $50. The Works Progress Administration sustained the company by financing road building, a precursor for later infrastructure development.

The next significant chapter in Iowa Manufacturing’s history was the role it played in World War II. It contributed to the war effort by manufacturing and shipping equipment all over the world to build roads and landing strips for the military. Many employees fought in the war, and after the first employee fell in combat, co-workers volunteered their day off and labor to construct the Spirit of Cedarapids, a crusher donated to the military in honor of their late friend.

In 1944, the War Department presented Iowa Manufacturing with the Army/Navy E (Excellence) Award in recognition of the patriotism exhibited

by Iowa Manufacturing and its employees. A ceremony was held where the company received a flag and each employee a lapel pin.

The war also left a legacy of equipment that remained abroad, which helped develop Iowa Manufacturing’s international reputation.

The war also highlighted the importance of roads to the government, with President Dwight D. Eisenhower signing the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956, leading to increased road building across the country.

Iowa Manufacturing responded by acquiring New Holland Equipment, a manufacturer of impact crushers since 1912, expanding the company’s already extensive crusher product line, while also developing a new line of asphalt pavers.

For years, President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s picture hung in the Howard Hall’s residence known as the “Brucemore Mansion” in recognition of Eisenhower’s impact on the Cedar Rapids community and nation. Over the years that followed, Iowa Manufacturing’s reputation for product excellence and employee commitment provided a strong foundation for its future.

Admiration for Hall and a belief that any company connected to him was a strong investment led to Raytheon, a major industrial manufacturer to pur-

chase Iowa Manufacturing in 1972, the year following Hall’s death.

The company continued to grow, acquiring EL Jay, a manufacturer of screens, crushers and portable plants, and changed its name to Cedarapids Inc., in 1985.

The 1980s finished with the acquisition of Standard Havens in 1989, a manufacturer of hot mix asphalt plants.

This acquisition included the Oklahoma City facility, where all Terex MPS portable plants and products are currently built today.

The growth of Cedarapids Inc. continued with the investment in a “new” operations plant in 1990, which became the world’s largest crushing and screening facility under one roof.

This was soon followed by the launch of the world’s largest tracked jaw plant — the MTP5460, in 1992.

The nineties ended with Cedarapids Inc. becoming part of Terex, a global manufacturer of heavy equipment.

Recognizing the quality and history associated with the brand, Terex continued with the company’s name, which became Cedarapids — a Terex Company. A decade later, Terex Minerals Processing Systems (MPS) was formed, bringing together Cedarapids, Simplicity, Canica and Jaques, all world leaders in manufacturing high quality, reliable materials processing equipment.

Terex MPS now belongs to the Terex Materials Processing segment of Terex, a leading portfolio of specialty equipment brands serving the aggregates, environmental, concrete, materials handling and lifting markets. The common denominator across Terex MP brands is continued investment in new technologies and innovative solutions that help customers operate their equipment safely, while achieving profitability, sustainability and superior returns.

The influence and legacy Hall left on the manufacturing industry did not go unnoticed. In 2014, 90 years after Iowa Manufacturing was established and more than 40 years from his death, Howard Hall was inducted into the “Hall of Fame”, an aggregate industry recognition. As well as the role his innovations played in the nation’s road construction and war efforts, the award recognized him for being a community leader and philanthropist, leading an effort to start a radiation center and

establish a foundation to distribute capital grants. They also credited him for his “ambition, common sense and a welcoming personality, running the company knowing everyone’s name”.

Today Cedarapids continues the legacy started by Hall with products that are purposefully designed using customer, end-user and distributor feedback, serving global markets. In more recent times, Cedarapids equipment was used in The Panama Canal expansion project from 2007-2016.

Also called the “Third Set of Locks Project”, the expansion doubled the capacity of the Panama Canal by adding a new lane of traffic, allowing for a larger number of ships, and increasing the width and depth of the lanes and locks allowing larger ships to pass.

Cedarapids can be proud that its equipment contributed to the increased commercial operations in the Panama Canal from 2016. This is just one example of many prestigious infrastructure projects using Cedarapids equipment, all over the world.

Cedarapids continues to innovate and design materials processing equipment that exceeds industry expectations.

Customers inspire the Cedarapids team to “think outside of the box” and develop equipment that goes beyond the norm. An example is the newest portable plant, the CRC1350S that officially launches later in 2023. This portable cone crusher was specially designed using feedback from a series of interviews between key distributors and Terex MPS engineers, which was integral to the development of this popular closed-circuit layout.

“Terex MPS is proud to have Cedarapids as one of its legacy brands, which continues to meet customer demands to yield higher production capacity, lower cost per ton while remaining highly portable. The century-old fundamentals of the Cedarapids portable plants remains as strong today as it did back in 1923,” the company said.

“From all of us at Terex MPS, thank you to all past and present team members for your years of service and helping us reach our 100-year anniversary.

It couldn’t have been done without your contributions.”

Meade’s Tennessee, Kentucky Locations Now Part McCoy Construction & Forestry MEADE from page 1

“We are proud and excited to announce another expansion with our John Deere division. A continued thanks to all McCoy Group employees that make these opportunities possible,” said Greg McCoy, president and CEO of McCoy Group Inc. “As we continue to expand this business unit the passion for customer service will remain our focus,” said Jeff Herkert, MCF president. “We are excited by the possibilities this new chapter brings for our new and existing customers, employees, John Deere and the entire McCoy Group family.”

“This partnership will be an outstanding opportunity for Meade Tractor’s construction and forestry customers and most importantly for Meade’s valuable Construction and Forestry employees,” said Chuck Meade, president of Meade Tractor. “The McCoy family has a remarkable track record with customers and employees dating all the way back to 1958. They recognize the expertise and relationships the Meade team brings to their group. Both organizations are sure to benefit from the sharing of best practices, as two strong teams meld together to become one high-performing unit under the McCoy Construction and Forestry brand.

Meade Tractor will continue to expand its existing John Deere agriculture and turf dealerships and we look forward to partnering with McCoy to advance the John Deere brand in our respective markets.”

The new McCoy Construction and Forestry locations will join a growing organization that is already home to six subsidiaries including 26 Midwest-based Freightliner dealerships — Truck Country and Stoops — and 51- terminal bulk tank transportation companies Foodliner and Quest Liner.

The McCoy Group Inc. is the parent company for six subsidiaries engaged in the truck, transportation and construc-

tion and forestry industries, and is wholly owned and operated by the McCoy family.

Truck Country and Stoops Freightliner-Quality Trailer are a group of 26 Freightliner/Western Star truck and Wabash trailer dealerships in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin. Additionally, the McCoy transportation group consists of Foodliner and Quest Liner.

$75M N.C. Zoo Expansion Due to Complete By 2026 ZOO from page 26

Since 1925, Manitowoc woc crawler cra cranes have been built in the USA to deliver unmatched productivity pr on the most challenging projects. ts. Today, our portfolio includes models from 80 USt to 2535 USt, backed by an expe ert dealer network from coast to coast.

“Additionally, there is an exponential amount of coordination daily between the team to manage different habitats, the relationship of themed rock with the underground utilities and the caging foundations.”

When crews first arrived, the property was basically forest and rocks. Site work required blasting and the installation of three sediment basins. Demolition included tree removal and asphalt demo at the Prairie Junction.

A mix of heavy equipment is being used on the job, including 360 track hoes; a crane for steel erection; dozers; forklifts; miniexcavators; and Bobcats. A rock crusher, rock slinger and pump trucks also have been needed to perform different tasks.

According to Teckenbrock, workers have completed the slab on grades at the café, the view pavilion and the vulture crane exhibit.

The steel structure for the café is complete, and the view pavilion’s structural steel erection is well under way.

Construction currently taking place involves concrete masonry unit walls at the view pavilion, work on the vulture crane exhibit, pump house, concrete walls at the tiger holding area, themed rock at the tiger and warty pig exhibits, caging foundations for the vulture crane exhibit, interior roughins at the café, bridge steel, waterproofing and air barrier at the café and the view pavilion and café roof.

Work remaining includes themed rock, life support systems, underground utilities,

steel erection for the warty pig, vulture crane, tiger and otter exhibits, pathways, bridge and specialty woodwork.

During construction, the well-being of the zoo’s animals is a top priority. When blasting took place, for example, each creature was monitored to ensure there were no negative reactions.

Workers on the job also are protected.

“All our trams must drive past the construction site, and we have instituted a fivemph zone for the workers’ safety,” said Villa.

“We have full-time EMTs, in case of a medical need. We ensure all subcontractors are escorted into and out of the construction site and that our gates are secure.”

The state legislature approved funding over the next two years to allow construction of the high profile project, which also is being paid for with private donations. As crews continue the tasks needed to bring Asia continent to life, they are ever mindful of the zoo’s sensitive environment.

“The only access road to the construction site is shared with the tram used to transport visitors to different regions of the zoo,” Teckenbrock noted. “This requires constant communication and coordination throughout the day to efficiently transport deliveries and team members from the main entrance of the zoo.

“While NC Zoo remains operational with thousands of visitors each day, it is essential to maintain an enjoyable and memorable experience by directing them toward the open exhibits and helping build excitement for what’s to come from a secure distance.”  CEG

Cat Expresses Pride in Long Heritage in South Milwaukee CATERPILLAR from page 20

After intensely studying the habits of operators with varying skill levels, Caterpillar introduced its first technology advancement package for the Cat 7495 series shovels in 2016, Operator Assist — Enhanced Motion Control (EMC). This innovation delivered machine protection and simplified operation to boost longevity and improve productivity.

Protecting the dipper, the software automatically limited swing forces when the operator attempted to swing the dipper through the bank. It also safeguarded the crowd ropes and brake, and it prevented boom jacking situations to improve machine cycle times and productivity.

Today, more ERS technologies to improve efficiency and lower costs are being introduced at a faster pace than ever before.

This year, Caterpillar launched two new technology packages for ERS models — the Integrated Technology Package (ITP) and Operator Assist Package (OA).

Eliminating the need for additional in-cab displays from one-off tech packages, ITP and its modules serve as the foundation for launching current and future technologies. It also provides seamless integration and quicker installation of Cat MineStar

Solutions’ operational technologies that help to track, monitor and manage the shovel.

OA offers more advanced machine protection and operating simplicity. It features a LiDAR vision system — similar to the technology found on autonomous mining trucks — to scan the front of the shovel, helping to avoid accidental collisions between the dipper and machine.

Cat ERS Models — Moving Mountains Since the acquisition, Caterpillar has produced more than 200 of the 134.4-ton capac-

ity ERS models in South Milwaukee, initially under the Bucyrus name and now as Caterpillar.

The average lifespan of today’s Cat 7495 shovel is 20 years with machines working in some of the harshest operating conditions around the world, from the subfreezing oil sands of Canada to the arid Chilean deserts where average annual rainfall is less than 1.0 in.

From 1990 to 2022, roughly 237 machines — both Bucyrus 495 and Cat 7495 series — have moved more than 116 billion tons of material. If this quantity were moved by the 400-ton Cat 797 mining truck, it would have

resulted in 290.1 million truckloads and have taken over 13.9 million hours to complete, given a 2.88-minute cycle and truck spotting time.

“We are proud of our long heritage in South Milwaukee, the impact the equipment produced at this location has had on the global market over the last 130 years, and the talented and dedicated team continuing the tradition of excellence in the production and support of Cat electric rope shovels and draglines,” said Jeremy Niedens, facility manager — South Milwaukee for Caterpillar.

Ironpeddlers, Transit & Level Clinic, AGTEC Collaborate

I

ronpeddlers, Transit & Level Clinic and AGTEC held a Construction Rodeo Sept. 1, 2023, at Ironpeddlers’ main facility in Monroe, N.C. The event featured the latest SANY equipment equipped with Leica products.

More than 100 customers and friends attended the event.

In addition to participating in the construction rodeo, attendees also had the opportunity to win door prizes that included coolers, speakers, cooking gear, sunglasses and three Blackstone grills.

Ironpeddlers is a construction and road equipment dealer based in the Charlotte-Monroe market in North Carolina. For most of the past 48 years, the company had been offering used machines and parts, but a decision to align itself with SANY America Inc., a manufacturer of excavators, wheel loaders and motor graders, among many other products, completely changed Ironpeddlers’ direction by making it a Andrew Wood (L) of Ironpeddlers and (L-R) are Anthony Broome, Ironpeddlers, and Charles Lawley and successful original equipment manufacturer (OEM) dealership.

Mike Windsor, Leica Geosystems Machine Control.

Greg Henry of Soosan Attachments.
