Harvey, Irma Make Make Back-to-Back Hurricanes to Hit Mainland By Christine Allen

Only twice in United States history have two major Hurricanes made landfall back-to-back on the mainland, according to the National Hurricane Center. Over the past few weeks, Hurricanes Harvey and Irma brought that number up to three. On Aug. 25, Harvey made landfall and devastated southeast Texas, dumping more than 50 inches of rain with maximum sustained wind gusts reaching 130 mph. While it may take weeks to determine the exact death toll, Texas officials now believe at least 70 people lost their lives to the storm and subsequent flooding. Surrounding states jumped into action to help Texans, including the Louisiana DOT, which donated busses and other resources to evacuate those along the Texas/Louisiana border beginning on Aug 30. Local businesses also came to the aid of victims, including several construction equipment dealers and manufacturers — Nueces Power Equipment, Mustang Cat, LiuGong/Dressta and more. But even as these rescue and relief efforts were taking place, meteorologists were predicting a new event that would impact the Southeast — Hurricane Irma.

SAN JUAN (AP), Puerto Rico Rescuers fanned out to reach stunned victims Sept. 21 after Hurricane Maria ravaged Puerto Rico, knocking out electricity to the entire island and triggering landslides and floods. The extent of the damage is unknown given that dozens of municipalities remained isolated and without communication after Maria hit the island Sept. 20 as a Category 4 storm with 155 mph see MARIA page 92

Meco Miami Uses Its Equipment to Barricade Its Facility IRMA from page 1

Hurricane Irma Eyes the Caribbean and the Keys As Irma worked its way through the Caribbean, it strengthened in intensity to a Category 5 hurricane, and, on Sept. 6, the U.S. Virgin Islands reported wind gusts of 110 mph. Puerto Rico also reported high winds totaling 185 mph. Just a day before, Gov. Rick Scott of Florida suspended all tolls across state highways to facilitate the evacuation of its citizens, and, on Sept. 7, hurricane surge and storm warnings were issued for Florida. Many communities struggled to carry out the evacuation, including Miami-Dade County, which proved to be the largest evacuation in the county’s history. Hurricane Irma made landfall in the United States Sept.10 in the lower Florida Keys as a Category 4 hurricane with 130 mph wind gusts. As it continued, the storm weakened to a Category 3 hurricane with 120 mph gusts. FEMA currently estimates that 25 percent of the homes in the Florida Keys were destroyed and 65 percent sustained major damage. After pelting the Keys, Irma was downgraded to a tropical storm; however, that didn’t prevent the storm from making a dramatic show of its power — toppling two cranes in downtown Miami. The damage could have been much worse; there are more than two dozen cranes erected in Miami with counterbalances weighing up to 30,000 lbs., according to the Associated Press. Due to their size and scope, crews did not have enough time to move the cranes before the storm hit Miami. As Irma worked its way up the state of Florida, it brought high winds and flooding in its wake. Jacksonville, Fla., experienced record-setting flooding from St. Johns River, and on Sept. 11, the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office’s warned citizens via Twitter to evacuate zones along river. Water levels ultimately reached 60 in., surpassing the previous record set by Hurricane Dora by 10 in., according to the National Hurricane Center. Local Equipment Dealers Lend Assistance Just as they had in Texas, local construction equipment dealers stepped up to do their part to help their communities recover from the storm — even as they were continuing to recover themselves. Michael Vazquez, vice president of Meco Miami, said that around half of his employees still did not have electricity as of Sept. 14, but that didn’t stop them from volunteering their time and expertise to help those in need. “Some of my employees have donated their time through the United Way, Red Cross and local churches to help people in need,” said Vazquez. “Two of my employees live in apartments and had no damage, so

they were able to help. No one worked on Monday [Sept. 11] so several of our employees donated their time to transport and help those in need.” Overall, Vazquez said that they were very fortunate to have been spared the brunt of the storm. He said preparations began on Sept. 4, securing lighter equipment that would be vulnerable to damage or become a projectile in high winds. The company’s larger equipment was used in another way. “We have about 200 machines, so we put the larger equipment all the way around the facility,” he said. “That way if something did become airborne, we would protect the facility as much as possible. The equipment we have — the large loaders, SANY excavators,

Dynapac equipment — they all weigh between 20 and 40,000 lbs. They cannot be moved by the wind.” These precautions paid off for the company. “We were very fortunate. We had a metal protection wall that we use for our wash base that blew off and we had a tree go down, but overall we had very minimal damage to our facility. We have a tower crane that is 100 ft. tall and didn’t have any trouble with it at all.” Now that the storm has passed, Vazquez said a variety of equipment will be going out to aid the recovery effort, including front end loaders, backhoes, skid steers, generators and light towers. He also said man lifts will be used to reach electrical cables, as well as

sweepers to clean the streets. “As of today [Sept. 14], I believe the contracts are going to be awarded. I have about 17 machines on hold for contractors I work with on a daily basis that are waiting to see if they will get a job. We are waiting to see — literally within an hour or so — who will be awarded which jobs. We do have equipment in the first phase trying to clean up some streets on the private sector side. It’s basically contractors who got the machines to clean up residential streets in neighborhoods in larger areas. We started that on Monday [Sept. 11] as a matter of fact.” John Roseberry, sales manager of Great Southern Equipment, also said his company and its employees are ready to help its customers. “We are always available to help. I know most departments are running hard right now trying to take care of machines. Our sales guys are out taking care of the customers that have needs for equipment. “One of our customers has done a lot of FEMA clean-up in the past; he has taken several pieces of equipment. As of this morning [Sept 20], we don’t have any wheel loaders left, and we have one excavator left with a thumb on it. Everything going out is to existing customers that are doing clean-up work. A lot of the clean-up has been in south Fla., some in the Jacksonville area.” According to Roseberry, the company has been largely spared from any major damage. He said aside from some water in its Jacksonville parts warehouse and some power outages, the company did not sustain any appreciable damage. Great Southern Equipment’s headquarters facility is in Tampa, and it has additional locations in Orlando, Ft. Myers, Pompano Beach, Jacksonville, Tallahassee and Ocala. “We started closing our stores Friday [Sept. 9] at noon the weekend before the storm hit, and we were also closed on Monday [Sept. 11], the storm came through Saturday and Sunday. To be honest with you, at the time, no one knew where the storm was going. One minute it’s going to make a right-hand turn and then it’s going to be a direct hit on Miami and the next thing you know it going to come up the west coast of Florida. It ended up coming up the center part of the state, so it was not the easiest thing to plan for. We did have some people evacuate, especially those in the Ft. Myers and Pompano Beach location. They all headed north.” As of Sept 20, Roseberry said that operations are all but back to normal with the exception of one employee in the Miami area that doesn’t have power. see IRMA page 82

The Case 1150M LT completes the site prep work for a barn in Campobello, S.C.

Todd Shearer (L) of Hills Machinery and Tony Hyder of Hyder Construction.

Hyder Construction Continues Family Tradition in S.C. For Tony Hyder of Hyder Construction, Landrum, S.C., construction is in the blood. “My dad had 12 kids to feed in the 1950s when he started the business,” said Hyder. “He had a dozer and a saw mill and did farm work in addition to building ponds. My seven brothers and I became involved at early age, working after school everyday. When we graduated from high school, we started doing construction work. “My older brother passed suddenly in 1992, but we’ve worked together and applied the money to the business rather than blowing it on fancy stuff. Currently, three of us brothers work in construction, along with my son and nephew, and three brothers do all the farm work.” Since that time, the company has completed many notable projects, including its largest — a $850,000, 150-home subdivision job in Spartanburg, which took place in 2006. The work involved clearing sites before grading, paving the street, and setting up a 6-in. stone base on which the foundations for 150 houses were laid. When the economic downturn hit in 2008, Hyder said that

they survived because of two factors — the company did not have debt and did not rely on a single sector for work. Today, Hyder is currently overseeing a number of projects in South Carolina, including a grading project for a Zaxby’s in Inman and a backfilling and detention pond project in Holly Springs. For these projects, the company is using Case machines, specifically, four Case 580 backhoes, a Case 1150 dozer and a Case DV36 asphalt roller. “We never had a dozer with a six-way blade, and we felt that we needed one for the projects we have coming up,” he said. “The Case 1150 dozer appeared to be a good fit for the future for housing and subdivision projects.” Hyder said that the company performs its own maintenance work, but relies on Hills Machinery for parts, which are generally available the next day. He had high praise not only for the Case equipment, but also the service he’s received from Hills Machinery. “We’ve had Case machines on the farm beginning in the late 1940s, and they’ve served us well. We’ve also had a good working relationship with Hill’s Machinery.”

Hills Machinery Hills Machinery opened its doors in 2007 to sell, rent and repair equipment. In 2010, Hills Machinery was appointed the new Case Construction Equipment dealer in North and South Carolina. The business is owned by two brothers, Adam and Jim Hills, who run the company with a dedicated group of heavy equipment industry professionals. “Over the last several years Hills has expanded across the Carolinas and carries other lines such as Case, Terex Finlay, Rubble Master, Edge Innovative, Gradall, Mauldin Pavers and many more product lines.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) Louisiana is borrowing $341 million to refill the account that pays for state-financed construction work. The Bond Commission, which oversees construction spending, approved the general obligation bond sale. The sale involves borrowing money by selling bonds to investors for upfront cash. Bank Of America Merrill Lynch was the winning bidder. The debt will be paid over 20 years with a 2.9 percent interest rate, a rate lower than in Louisiana’s last general obligation bond sale in March. Without an influx of cash, Louisiana was expected to soon start running out of money for items in the state construction

budget like building repairs, economic development projects, roadwork and lawmakers’ local projects. But a cash crunch for construction work could loom next year because of the state’s ongoing financial troubles. Louisiana is capped in how much it can borrow each year based on how much income the state is projected to receive. More than $1 billion in temporary taxes are set to expire in mid-2018. Without that revenue on the books, Louisiana’s borrowing capacity is driven down — restricting how much the state can borrow for construction work. Edwards wants lawmakers to consider raising taxes to fill the gap, but he’s been unable to get legislative support for the idea so far. The Bond Commission has been presented with options for how it could replenish the construction account if none of the expiring taxes are replaced. The state could borrow money after the taxes expire by delaying repayment and then back-loading the debt payoff — with the state paying millions more in interest over time. However, if lawmakers agree to fill even a portion of the budget gap with new revenue, that would give Louisiana more room to borrow money for projects without needing to restructure the debt.

The Port of Virginia signed a contract allowing for the purchase of four new shipto-shore cranes that are part of the $320 million expansion of Virginia International Gateway (VIG). The Virginia Port Authority Board of Commissioners in its July meeting approved a spending package of $44.8 million that covers the cost of the cranes, parts, their delivery to Virginia from China and installation at VIG. The cranes are being built by Shanghai-based Zhenhua Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. (ZPMC). The largest of their kind in the United States, these four cranes will be able to handle the Ultra Large Container Vessels, or ULCVs, that are currently calling the port, as well as the even higher-volume ships of the future. “These cranes are the biggest of the big — the largest ZPMC has ever delivered to the U.S.” said Virginia Port Authority (VPA) Board Chairman John G. Milliken. “What is unique about these cranes is their outreach, they will be able to reach across a vessel that is 26 containers wide, which is three-to-four containers wider than most cranes. We anticipated needing this capacity [of the cranes] for the ships that will be coming to Virginia 10 years from now. When that day comes The Port of Virginia will be ready.” In order to ensure these cranes are built to the port’s specifications, engineers from the port will visit the ZPMC facility to oversee the manufacturing process. The contract also includes the purchase of several specialized cargo handling components for the cranes and an option on two additional ship-toshore cranes for use at Norfolk International Terminals (NIT). Once the new cranes are delivered, The

Port of Virginia will have 30 ship-to-shore cranes at work in the Norfolk Harbor and the ability to service the biggest container ships sailing the Atlantic Ocean: VIG will have 12 cranes; NIT has 14; and Portsmouth Marine Terminal (PMT) has six. The new cranes are set for delivery in April 2019. “Acquiring these cranes is another important step in the larger expansion efforts under way at VIG,” said John F. Reinhart, CEO and executive director of the VPA. “The big ships calling the port are only getting bigger and we are charting our course for the future to ensure we will be able to accommodate the larger capacities still to come.” Work is underway at VIG on a $320 million expansion project that will expand the terminal’s berth, rail operation and stack yard and bring the annual container throughput capacity to 1.2 million units. The project is one of two large-scale expansion projects that, when complete, will increase the port’s overall annual container capacity by 40 percent, or 1 million container units, by 2020. Specs: • crane height = 170 ft. (52 m) lift above the dock • boom-out length = 226 ft. (69 m) from the rail closest to the water • total height with the boom up = 446 ft. (136 m) • width between the legs = 59 ft. (18 m) • rail gage = 100 ft. (30.48 m) • unit weight = 1,827 tons • lifting capacity = 65 long tons under a twin-20-ft. spreader or 100 long tons under cargo hook (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

A Mississippi judge is demanding that the owner of a partially collapsed building take action to renovate or demolish it.

MCCOMB, Miss. (AP) A Mississippi judge is demanding that the owner of a partially collapsed building take action to renovate or demolish it. The top of the 97-year-old Kramer Roof building in McComb collapsed July 23. The downtown structure held a church and a performing arts center. Terrance Alexander owned the building, but sold it several months ago to a limited liability company that he controls. The Enterprise Journal reported Alexander appeared in court and had a tense exchange with Municipal Judge Brandon Frazier. Alexander said he doesn’t have money to repair the building, so he plans to tear it down. The judge showed frustration after city officials said Alexander had not applied for demolition permits. Alexander said his insurance company told him he couldn’t demolish the building until inspectors determine why it partially collapsed. Frazier told Alexander that he was not waiting on an insurance company. “So, are you saying you have the authority to overrule the insurance company?” Alexander asked. “Absolutely, I do.” Frazier said. “I can overrule the city, which I did. Do you remember that? I overruled the city and they tried to appeal me.” The judge was referring to his decision to lift temporary condemnation orders on surrounding buildings after the cleanup and stabilization of the ruins of Kramer Roof had taken place. Alexander said the city has done nothing after the cleanup of the building. After about 10 minutes of discussion, the judge gave Alexander 15 days to file an application to either repair or demolish the building. Frazier said he would hold Alexander in contempt of court for failing to do so. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

CHARLESTON, Tenn. (AP) An explosion caused by a hydrogen chemical release at a Tennessee plant briefly shut down a busy section of the interstate and spurred orders for people nearby to take shelter, emergency officials said. A late-afternoon alert from the Bradley County Emergency Management Agency urged people to stay out of the Charleston area in southeastern Tennessee as authorities responded to the event at the Wacker Polysilicon plant. For about an hour, emergency officials told people to shelter in place and turn off their HVAC systems. Walker Valley High School was told to shelter in place, the agency said. Charleston is 30 mi. northeast of Chattanooga. Tennessee Highway Patrol Spokesman Lt. Bill Miller said the interstate was closed in both directions when emergency crews

responded to the explosion. In statements to media outlets, Wacker said there was a mechanical failure at the plant with a hydrogen chemical release. The company said the equipment was shut down, and all employees, contractors and firefighters are accounted for. There are no injuries, the company said. Wacker said the plant is temporarily closed, and the company is continuously monitoring air quality and the tests show the air quality is not harmful. The Chattanooga Times Free Press reported that five workers at the plant recently suffered chemical burns from the release of silane, a highly flammable compressed gas. Wacker in June began a $150 million expansion of the sprawling $2.5 billion plant. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Drones May Hold Key to Unblock Roads Faster RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) Drone aircraft are beginning to hover over highway crashes in North Carolina as more law enforcement agencies use them to reopen the road in a fraction of the time needed previously. The state Transportation Department said it and the State

THE

END IS NEAR

Drones are cheaper, easier and could be safer for law officers…

Highway Patrol are studying drones that create 3-D models of crash scenes. DOT said a test of the technology cut the time for an accurate crash reconstruction from almost two hours to 25 minutes. Drones are cheaper, easier and could be safer for law officers because they’re not working on the highway. Law officers could need Federal Aviation Administration approval to fly drones. The technology is being used by a few law enforcement agencies, including the Canadian city of Edmonton and Gwinnett County police near Atlanta.

MDOT Speeds Up Plans for Bridges on Highway 14 YAZOO CITY, Miss. (AP) The Mississippi Department of Transportation said it is speeding up plans to repair two bridges that are important to farmers. The department recently reduced the weight limits on the two bridges on a rural stretch of Mississippi Highway 14. Inspectors found deficiencies in the 67-year-old bridges that are between Mayersville and Rolling Fork. Transportation Commissioner Dick Hall said Highway 14 is an important route for Delta farmers delivering crops to a grain elevator in Mayersville. Because of that, the repairs are being put on a fast track. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Cat 745 Artic Truck Offers Next Generation Cab Design Offering a 45.2-ton (41 t) rated payload capacity, the Cat 745 articulated truck features a new cab design, completely re-engineered from the inside-out using global operator feedback to advance comfort and ease of operation. The new external “spinal” ROPS structure boasts bonded rear quarter glass that eliminates the structural pillar to give the operator a dramatic improvement in visibility from the cab. Upon cab entry, the new “wake up” feature initiates machine displays as soon as the door is opened, while the lighter/stronger cab door offers shut assist for improved sealing against dust infiltration. The quieter cab design lowers inside sound levels by 5 dB at the operator’s ear. New infrared glass reduces solar heating inside the cab, while left- and right-hand sliding windows increase ventilation and improve external communication with workers and the loading vehicle. More vents positioned above and behind the operator enables the new automatic climate control (HVAC) system to more efficiently heat and cool the cab. Offering the ability to accommodate a wider range of operators, the new heated/cooled seat provides more setting adjustments to dial in personalized operator comfort, while a new flip up/down passenger seat offers added comfort cushioning. A ground-level switch controls new access lights illuminating the steps and hitch area for improved safety when entering the cab. New cab-mounted mirrors and integrated payload lights offer improved visibility around the truck as well as payload levels for the loader operator. Innovative Machine Controls Inside the cab, a new combined transmission and hoist lever gives operators efficient single-lever control over truck speed and body hoisting functions to minimize operator effort and automate repetitive operations. At the flick of a switch, operators can choose between manual or fully automatic assisted hoisting control, which automatically applies the waiting brake, sets the transmission in neutral and hoists the body to maximum angle at high rpm. A new push-button lever control allows the operator to easily set the machine speed and select transmission hold/waiting brake. Directional gear shifting protection on the new 745 articulated truck now protects the powertrain by bringing the machine safely to a stop when transitioning from forward to reverse and vise-versa. Further improving operator safety, the machine incorporates the new Cat Detect with Stability Assist system. This system audibly and visibly warns the operator if tractor or trailer unit has reached an angle

Offering a 45.2-ton (41 t) rated payload capacity, the Cat 745 articulated truck features a new cab design, completely re-engineered from the inside-out using global operator feedback to advance comfort and ease of operation.

threshold where it is in risk of tipping over. The class leading fully advanced automatic traction control is improved by technology that will proactively apply the differential locks prior to any wheel spin. Terrain-based throttle smoothing prevents the new truck from surging when an operator is traveling over extremely rough terrain and is unable to keep steady pressure on the accelerator pedal, according to the manufacturer. The new 745 truck’s touchscreen display with revised menus offer intuitive navigation through the screens for simple machine control. The display enables the operator to monitor machine functions and personalize a variety of options. A new emergency stop brake switch next to the display offers a further level of operating safety in the unlikely event of incurring issues with both the main and secondary brake circuits. Builds on Solid C Series Design The new Cat 745 articulated truck incor-

porates all the field-proven features and performance of the C Series that deliver fast cycle times, high productivity and fuel efficiency. Its powertrain is driven by the Cat C18 ACERT engine, rated at 504 net hp (375 kW), which meets U.S. EPA Tier IV Final/EU Stage IV emissions standards. A new economy mode feature results in an average of 5 percent fuel consumption improvement in applications where a truck is not required to operate at full productivity. Cat’s CX38B high density power shift transmission enhances the new truck’s overall performance and productivity, while permanent six-wheel drive enables the truck to navigate even the most challenging terrain. Automatic retarding control manages machine retarding through a combination of engine, brake, gear selection and service brake application without operator intervention. Hill assist facilitates efficient stopping and starting on grades, while the waiting brake system, quickly engaged by a push-

button on the control lever, temporarily applies the service brake during pauses in the work cycle. In direct response to customer feedback, the lower portion of the front fenders is now made of a durable and flexible rubber sheet material. This change will help decrease maintenance and repair costs on sites where mud packing around the fenders could damage the lower section. Cat Connect PAYLOAD technology for the new 745 truck allows customers to optimize operations and improve overall jobsite efficiency. The available Cat Production Measurement system gives operators the ability to measure and deliver accurate payload with the confidence to boost productivity, lower costs and reduce the risk of overload damage.

Terex TA300 Artic Hauler Works at Scotland’s Barite Mine With confidence in the investment returns that Terex Trucks’ machines offer, mining contractor Barhaul has purchased a new 30.8 ton (28 t) capacity TA300 articulated dump truck, for use in a barite mine near Aberfeldy in Perthshire, Scotland. Supplied by Terex Trucks’ UK distributor, TDL Equipment, the TA300 has consistently impressed Barhaul with its ability to power through the harshest environments. “Over the years, Barhaul has regularly purchased Terex Trucks’ TA300 articulated haulers, as the company has a very good history with both the product and TDL in terms of our ability to support the product when required,” said John Black, sales director at TDL Equipment. Fitted with a tailgate and reverse color camera, the versatile machine is currently carrying out a number of jobs for Barhaul, one of which involves handling material removed from a barite mine that is owned by the world’s largest oilfield services company, Schlumberger. Heavyweight Mineral Easily identified due to its high specific gravity and derived from the Greek word “barus”, meaning heavy, barite is the naturally occurring mineral form of barium sul-

phate. Due to its density, the environmentally-friendly material is suitable for a wide range of industrial, manufacturing and medical uses. More than 75 percent of barite is used as an additive for drilling mud in gas and oil exploration — with the USA, Middle East and China as the largest consumers. Not classified as hazardous waste, barite is particularly beneficial to drilling muds as it can be applied to deep, high-temperature wells. Here it prevents damage to the tools used during the drilling process, serving as a lubricant to improve mud displacement and stabilizing high-pressure zones by increasing the thickness of the slurry, thereby averting blowouts. The mineral also has the ability to shield x-ray and gamma-ray emissions, acts as a weighted filler for cloth, paper, plastic and rubber, and used as a pigment in paints; barite is truly unique among its contemporaries. “Barite is an extremely dense material so it requires a robust and reliable vehicle to do the work of moving it around in the mine — it’s not an easy life for any truck,” said Black. Time-Honored Trust Set to make for the perfect collaboration between machine and mineral, the TA300 is

a proven design and has the capability to overcome the most demanding conditions and move material as quickly as possible due to its traction and effective power-to-weight ratios, according to the manufacturer. Created to work harder for longer, the machine offers minimum cost of operation and maximum productivity. With fully independent front suspension as standard, tyre/ground contact is maintained on tough terrain, increasing tractive effort and reducing cycle times, while also providing operators with a comfortable haul. Built in Motherwell, Scotland, the TA300 is mastered by a fuel-efficient five cylinder Scania DC9 engine, which develops gross power of 370 hp (276 kW) and maximum torque of 1,880 Nm. In addition, the transmission retardation system in combination with engine exhaust brake support the fullyenclosed oil-cooled multidisc brakes for

enhanced protection of the brakes, resulting in less maintenance and a longer life span for the brakes. Black said: “The Barhaul order for the TA300, which was to replace an existing unit, was delivered straight to the site and is carrying out the work it was purchased for. Alongside the sale coming with a short lead time, Barhaul’s decision to remain with the brand was influenced by the level of quick responses received from the manufacturer and dealer no matter the request. “As is normal business practice, Barhaul was looking at competitor brands but one of the key elements of retaining its business with Terex Trucks and TDL is the excellent working relationship that has been established over the years.” Patrick Bradley, director of Barhaul, said: “We have purchased Terex Trucks’ articulated dump trucks for a number of years and have been very pleased with their performance as well as the excellent aftermarket support provided by TDL — a winning combination.” For more information, visit www.terextrucks.com.

John Deere Expands E-Series Line With 260E, 310E Haulers John Deere’s two new models in its articulated dump truck (ADT) lineup —the 260E and 310E — are designed and built from the ground up in Davenport, Iowa, and boast updated styling, new cabs, frames and axles compared to their D-Series predecessors. “Our customers in the field expressed interest in the features that launched with the larger E-Series models — including increased hauling capacity; a larger, quieter cab; convenient ground-level daily service and increased travel speeds,” said Maryanne Graves, ADT product marketing manager, John Deere Construction & Forestry. “We worked closely with road builders, site developers and the mining, quarry and aggregate segments to develop trucks that are purpose-built and feature the performance, productivity and durability they expect from a John Deere machine.” The 26-ton (23.6 t) 260E (321 hp) and 31-ton (28 t) 310E (354 hp) boast a John Deere PowerTech 9.0 L Final Tier IV engine. A purpose-built ZF transmission includes a highcapacity retarder, eight forward gears and four reverse gears. Compared to previous models, these trucks have a 125 percent increase in retardation capacity. A new automatic differential lock provides both crossaxle differential lock and inter-axle differential lock options that can power the ADTs through soft underfoot conditions or steep terrains. In addition, the new John Deere hauler axles are designed for heavy-duty applications, and an optional cooling package is available for extreme conditions. The addition of hydraulically actuated wet disc brakes in all three axles provides the durability and uptime customers

expect from an ADT, according to the manufacturer. The updated ADT models incorporate high-strength materials to provide durable, long-lasting structures while still keeping a strong focus on overall weight and distribution. The machines provide enhanced power-to-weight ratios and hauling efficiencies. A newly designed stay-tight oscillation joint, standard adaptive front suspension and balanced weight distribution also provide the agility and ability to navigate hostile terrain. To minimize the risk of rollover while unloading, the dump body can be restricted from rising when the rear chas-

sis exceeds a predetermined slope angle. Inside the haulers, John Deere reduced decibel (dBA) levels by 50 percent with the addition of sound abatement and improved floor mat design, providing operators with a fatigue-resistant working environment. When in the operator’s seat, the cab monitor provides an easy-to-read LCD screen with onboard diagnostics, digital gauges and vital system indicators. Two ergonomically positioned sealed switch modules simplify operation and convenience controls. The auto shutdown feature can turn off the engine after an owner-determined period of inactivity to help save fuel while reducing emissions, idle time operation and subsequent wear on the power train and hydraulics. Operators will attain new levels of productivity with standard features, such as auto dump, descent control, shuttle shifting, hill hold and load assist. The 260E and 310E both feature centralized, true ground-level servicing to simplify daily maintenance and overall serviceability. Fleet managers looking to get the most out of their 260E and 310E can rely on their John Deere dealers to provide Ultimate Uptime, featuring John Deere WorkSight. With Ultimate Uptime, owners receive predelivery and follow-up inspections that include five years of JDLink telematics, machine health prognostics, remote diagnostics, programming capabilities and the ability to add dealer-provided uptime solutions to a customized package.

Volvo A60H Artic Truck Makes North American Debut In 1966, Volvo introduced the industry’s first articulated hauler — the 10-ton (9 t) DR 631, known as Gravel Charlie. Fifty years and 50 tons later, the A60H marks another Volvo milestone. Built upon the same engineering advancements as its smaller, industry-leading counterparts, the A60H provides the same offroad capability, now with an impressive 60-ton (54 t) payload capacity. This new-to-industry hauler class opens increased production opportunities and cost savings potential not previously possible with smaller articulated haulers or rigid trucks in the 60-ton size class, according to the manufacturer. “The A60H is a perfect fit for contractors who typically run multiple articulated haulers on long-term earthmoving projects. In many cases, customers could expect reduced operating costs by replacing two smaller trucks with one A60H,” said Eric Fatyol, product manager, GPE products at Volvo Construction Equipment. “The A60H could also open up new areas of production for mine and aggregate sites by providing access to areas of the site that were previously inaccessible with rigid trucks. Similarly, the A60H could extend the production season in harsh-weather regions and also eliminate the need for hiring outside contractors to handle overburden work.” True Volvo Versatility Powered by a 673-hp Volvo D16J engine and built upon the Volvo platform, the A60H goes where others can’t. The active hydraulic front suspension, hydro-mechanical steering and high ground clearance at the articulation joint enable the A60H to easily and comfortably navigate severe terrain, and the rotating hitch design makes the articulation joint virtually maintenance-free. Automatic traction control (ATC) and 100-percent differential locks continue to be a competitive advantage for Volvo. The no-slip, no-wear differential locks work in 4x6 and 6x6 drive combinations. This industry-unique design employs the front two axles in full-time, and the back axle kicks in as necessary — allowing unmatched off-road performance while reducing fuel consumption and tire wear. With oil-cooled, wet, multiple disc brakes on all three axles, stopping distance is impressively short — even on steep, muddy gradients, according to the manufacturer.

Volvo Construction Equipment once again reinvents the category of articulated haulers with the A60H — a first-of-its-kind, 60-ton-capacity, fully articulated hauler that invites customers to rethink the way they’re moving material.

New Features Come Standard The Volvo A60H also offers a range of new standard features borrowed from the latest Gseries model updates, each contributing to improved safety, productivity, efficiency and ease of serviceability. Hill Assist is a new safety and convenience

feature that holds the hauler in place on steep slopes without the need to engage the parking brake. The feature automatically activates when arriving at a complete stop on a hill and is disengaged when the operator accelerates. Dump Support System allows the operator to see the percentage side inclination of the truck and set allowable parameters for safe operation. This new feature adds to the already user-friendly dumping process aided by Volvo’s load and dump brake technology with automatic hold and float tipping lever, which provides precise control for faster cycle times. On-Board Weighing now comes standard and is fully automatic. Three load indicator lights alert both the hauler operator and the excavator operator when nominal load has been reached and can warn the operators of overloading. The hauler operator also can see, in real-time, the actual tonnage displayed on the in-cab Contronics display, which also includes a new Econometer feature showing fuel economy in the form of gallon per transported ton, per work cycle for the last 10 cycles. This data is also shared and remotely accessible by the fleet manager through CareTrack, Volvo’s telematics system, allowing for complete payload management and improved fleet utilization. Serviceability improvements include a redesigned belly plate that can be electrically lowered and raised with the same hydraulic lever that is used for the engine hood, which opens to a full 90 degrees for easy, unrestricted access. Another improvement to the A60H is the no-grease tipping cylinders, which are maintenance-free, allowing for greater uptime and productivity. New orange accent colors on handrails, grill step and cab entrance now provide contrast for additional safety. Protected for a Lifetime The A60H is not just powerful and off-road capable — it’s incredibly durable, which is why it’s backed by a Lifetime Frame and Structure Warranty. The A60H’s frame and articulation/oscillation joint are protected for the entirety of the initial period of ownership or for the life of the machine — whichever is less. Further support for the A60H is offered from Volvo’s extensive dealer network, who can develop customized customer support agreements with everything from maintenance plans and machine monitoring reporting via CareTrack and MATRIS, to uptime guarantees and full machine warranty options.

Articulated Dump Trucks: Heavy Hauling Made Easy By Aaron Kleingartner SPECIAL TO CEG

One of the most common mistakes made when selecting an off-highway haul truck is assuming that rigid and articulated dump trucks (ADTs) are alike. Although they both have massive hauling capabilities, the fact is each truck type has specific features that are valuable in certain applications. This article lays out the benefits of operating ADTs for moving materials in construction applications. An ADT’s design offers several off-road performance advantages when working in earthmoving and hauling applications. Since their simple, yet effective design can be very

• Semi-independent front suspension • Limited-slip differentials • Inter-axle differential ADTs can increase productivity and uptime because they are designed to operate in conditions that can limit other earthmoving equipment productivity. For example, some ADTs have front and rear limited-slip differentials, and an inter-axle differential to improve truck performance by splitting power one-third to the front and two-thirds to the rear. A front-mounted turning ring and rear tandem bogie are two ADT features — a design feature for some brands — that maintain maximum traction and stability when traveling over very rough or soft terrain.

A common mistake is assuming that rigid and articulated dump trucks (ADTs) are alike. Although they both have massive hauling capabilities, the fact is each truck type has specific features that are valuable in certain applications.

different from other pieces of hauling equipment, it is important that the trucks are compatible with specific tasks. Owners should first identify the tasks the ADT needs to perform. If the tasks are routine and regular, owners will likely purchase an ADT; however, if the tasks are performed only periodically, it may be best to rent the machine on an asneeded basis. Pairing an ADT with the properly sized loading equipment, assessing how easy the machine is to service, selecting the proper tire for the application, understanding the options and accessories available and what multiple safety features are available should also be considered. By considering these six tips, owners can better select an ADT that excels at hauling tasks: 1. Complete tasks more efficiently ADTs are designed to quickly move large amounts of material — such as dirt, rock, sand and gravel — with the lowest cost per ton transported in mind. Compared to rigid dump trucks or other earthmoving equipment, such as scrapers or pans, ADTs perform well in soft ground conditions and are commonly found on job sites in the early phases of site development, typically when ground conditions are not ideal. ADTs are efficient, increase productivity, and reduce downtime and daily operating costs because of the following features: • Articulation joint

2. Match with loading equipment The primary goal of any ADT owner is to maximize productivity by reducing haul cycles. One of the best ways to achieve these results in earthmoving applications is to match an ADT with the proper loading equipment, so equipment operators do not have to wait long between loads. For example, owners who complete short hauls on a job site and own a midsize crawler excavator should consider purchasing a 30-ton ADT. If they need to move larger volumes over long distances, a larger excavator paired with a 40-ton ADT would likely fit their requirements. For most material hauling sites with good production, it typically takes four to six passes, on average, to fill an ADT. 3. Minimize downtime by planning ahead for maintenance The last thing equipment owners want to do is waste valuable time servicing their machines. So before selecting an ADT, make sure it has good serviceability — easy access to the engine compartment on all sides and the transmission. Like any piece of construction equipment, proper and timely scheduled maintenance will extend the life of the machine and save the owner money over time. To better predict expenses, owners should consider creating a planned maintenance (PM) contract. With a PM contract, servicing time is typically based on the manufacturers’ optimal service schedule requirements. In addition, a PM contract ensures

that any necessary maintenance will be performed as required to help minimize any machine issues that can be caused because of a lack regular maintenance. In addition to a PM contract, ADT owners should perform three other preventive maintenance procedures: • Inspect the auto-lubrication system, if installed, to ensure that there is no premature component failure due to lack of grease • Assess tire air pressure, wear and damage on a regular basis • Monitor engine temperature and rpm history to prevent engine damage and major premature repairs with telematics Educated and dependable product support is critical for all heavy equipment. Make sure to choose a dealer that has product specialization and trained mechanics, offers great response times and has good parts in stock. 4. Select the proper tire When working in earthmoving applications, it is important to choose tires carefully to minimize costs. The right tires contribute significantly to an ADT’s tractive force, which is determined by the tread design, remaining tread life and tire inflation, along with ground conditions at the job site. The most common tires for ADTs are radial E3 or E4 tires; however, E3 tires offer better traction for sites that have soft soil conditions. Individual tire manufacturers can inform ADT owners and operators about which rubber compounds will provide longer life in earthmoving and hauling applications. 5. Expand versatility with multiple options and accessories ADTs operated in earthmoving and bulk hauling applications may be equipped with options and accessories to help increase their potential. Tailgates, for example, help to minimize spillage from the truck’s dump body and improve productivity. In addition, a heated body kit also is important, especially in colder climates, because it helps divert the engine exhaust through the channels in the dump body, keeping materials from freezing. Cold-weather starting kits and heated rear mirrors are other useful options for ADT operators working in the northern United States and in Canada. 6. Consider safety features When selecting an ADT, owners should understand the machine’s safety features. The location of the turning ring, or oscillating joint, of one ADT manufacturer helps keep equal weight on the front tires when loaded and turning. Unequal weight distribution can lead to instability. In addition, some ADT manufacturers have addressed compromised sight lines with rear sloping frames to help lower the center of gravity for more equal weight distribution, and improved stability when fully loaded. The frames also improve tractive effort, minimize tire wear and lower ground-bearing pressure. Large, well-placed and properly adjusted rearview mirrors help give a continuous view of the rear wheels when backing up and provide a higher degree of safety while on the jobsite. By looking at the ADT’s overall performance, versatility, serviceability and safety features, owners in earthmoving and hauling applications can make an educated decision about whether an ADT will fit into their fleets.

Komatsu America Introduces HD325-8, HD405-8 Artic Trucks Komatsu America Corp.’s HD325-8 and HD405-8 off-highway trucks are equipped with an EPA Tier IV Final certified engine and feature increased horsepower and a new Komatsu Traction Control System (KTCS) to achieve improved productivity. These models have payload capacities of 40.3 tons (36.5 t) and 44.1 tons (40 t), respectively. They replace the HD325-7 and HD405-7 models. The new trucks’ Komatsu SAA6D140E-7 engines have increased to a net 514 hp (383 kW). Fuel consumption is down for the HD325-8 by as much as 9 percent, and by as much as 6 percent for the HD405-8, compared to predecessors. Also, access is better, with sloped stairs and handrails in front, to replace the previous ladder configuration. For HD325-8 and HD405-8 machines, Komatsu traction control system (KTCS) is now standard. KTCS automatically applies independent brake assemblies to achieve optimum traction in varying ground conditions. Because the system operates without the need for differential lock-up, steering performance is not compromised, according to the manufacturer. Other new standard features for both truck models include a quiet 78 dB(A) cab, 7-inch, LCD color monitor, dedicated rearview monitor, fast-fill fuel system and a premium heated and ventilated operator’s seat with air suspension. In addition, the tire size for the HD405-8 truck has been increased from 18.00 R33 to 21.00 R33, for extended wear properties. “The updated truck models retained their industry leading steering performance and retarding capacity for maximum production,” said Rob McMahon, product marketing manager of Komatsu America. “The addition of Komatsu’s latest fuel saving technologies and the all-new cab, lower the cost to maximize production and significantly enhance operator comfort at the same time.” Tier IV Final Certified Engine Technology • The powerful SAA6D140E-7 engine provides a gross power rating of 518 hp (386 kW). • The hydraulically actuated exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and variable geometry turbocharger (VGT) ensure precise operation and quick engine response. • Maintenance of Tier IV Final engines is simplified with enhanced monitor panel capability and service features. • KOMTRAX and the monitor panel provide critical information for easy monitoring and key data for production management. • Komatsu diesel particulate filter (KDPF) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) are

designed in conjunction with the engine for efficiency and long life. • More than 98 percent of KDPF regeneration is performed passively, with no action required of the operator and no interference with machine operation. • Power and economy modes allow the operator to optimize the performance required for operation. New In-Cab Enhancements/Features • Air-suspension, high-back, ventilated and heated seat softens machine vibrations for added operator comfort and cast frame members increase strength. • Seven-inch, full color, high resolution monitor delivers a sharp picture and vivid colors, even in harsh light. • Komatsu auto idle shutdown can reduce idle time and save fuel. • Separate, full color, rearview monitor with improved line-of-sight. • Pioneering KOMTRAX telematics system and monitor provide key machine met-

rics, including KDPF status and fuel consumption. Performance information can be collected and sorted by operator ID. • Auxiliary jack and two 12 volt ports. Additional Features/Benefits • New angled front access stairs with handrails are now standard for both sides of the machine. • Tight turning radius with MacPherson strut front suspension. • Hydropneumatic suspension system for a smooth ride. • New Komatsu traction control system (KTCS) automatically provides optimum traction in all ground conditions without operator input. • Komatsu advanced transmission with optimum modulation control system (KATOMiCS) adjusts shifting performance according to demand for a more comfortable ride and reduced material spillage. • Automatic retard speed control (ARSC) automatically maintains a selected downhill travel speed (rather than engine RPM) that is

appropriate for the grade. • Enhanced Komatsu integrated payload meter (PLM) data is available on the machine monitor and remotely via the web. • New ground level accessible battery box for easy maintenance. Komatsu CARE The HD325-8 and HD405-8 are covered by the Komatsu CARE program for the first three years or 2,000 hours, whichever comes first. Komatsu CARE for these models includes complementary scheduled engine maintenance and two complementary Komatsu diesel particulate filter exchanges in the first five years. Komatsu CARE lowers ownership costs, raises resale value and improves equipment uptime and availability. For full program details, refer to the Komatsu CARE reimbursement letter.

Wirtgen Develops Next Generation of Slipform Pavers Due to its versatility in inset and offset applications, the SP 60 series slipform paver is the new multi-talent for concrete paving. With its SP 61i, SP 62i and SP 64i models, Wirtgen has developed a new generation of slipform pavers that combines the diverse applications of the globally successful SP 500, with the modern technologies of the next larger SP 90 series. Engine Technology Means More Power As part of its modification measures to comply with new emissions laws, Wirtgen has equipped the SP 60 series with greater engine output. The machines that meet EU Stage 4 and U.S. Tier IV Final emissions specifications have a 241 hp (180 kW) Deutz engine, with about 40 percent more power than the SP 500 (+20 percent at EU Stage 3a/US Tier III). Despite the higher output, fuel consumption is reduced by the Wirtgen Eco mode, which automatically adapts engine output to power requirements. New Concept in Hydraulic Technology More features than ever operate hydraulically in the SP 60 series. Due to a new hydraulic concept, energy is now used much more efficiently, making it available for new equipment options, for example, trimmers and a large delivery screw for offset applications, or the four swivel arms used to switch the machine from transport to working mode faster. The system starts as a basic version, and grows along with the number of modular equipment options selected. Customers save by choosing only the options they want.

Intelligent Systems Control Technology Likewise, the intelligent machine control systems in Wirtgen’s slipform pavers are modern. Interfaces for the Wirtgen Group’s WIDIAG service diagnosis and WITOS FleetView systems support users, as does the optional Paving Plus package. Combined with this package, the swivel arms can actively circumnavigate obstacles during the concrete paving process, according to the manufacturer. The option of hydraulic rotational drives, available for all SP 60 series models, provides even better maneuverability. With hydraulic rotational drives, the 90 degree or 120 degree steering angle of the crawler tracks becomes a major advantage, for example when setting up the machine at a job site. Another new development is the option of choosing between two undercarriage sizes. For professional concrete paving at job sites with unpaved ground, the lanes for the pavers must be stabilized ahead of time. However, the larger crawler tracks exert less contact pressure per unit area, reducing the pressure on the ground, thus giving the slipform paver the stability it needs. This in turn has a positive impact on the quality of the paving results. Synergies Between Series Apart from integrating the latest technologies in the development of the new SP 60 series, Wirtgen also adapted userfriendly operation and synergies of the SP 90 series to the SP 60 line. Uniform Operating and Control Concept Various features make the machines both simple and flex-

ible to operate: a walkway that now extends across the full width of the machine for the first time, plus a standardized operating and control concept like that in the SP 90 series, comprises a central control system and four additional local control systems as standard. Intelligent interfaces support the plug-and-play connection of additional options. For example, remote controls can be connected to each of the crawler tracks to simplify and speed up setup of the slipform paver, such as the positioning and zeroing of the crawler tracks and swivel arms. Inset and Offset Mold Systems Like the modular system for the SP 94i and SP 92i, customers can now choose between different slipform systems for inset paving. The slipform modules are fully compatible with the SP 90 series. The SP 64i (four crawlers on swivel arms) and SP 62i (track steering) can thus pave concrete in widths of up to 20 ft. (6 m) and thicknesses of up to 18 in. (45 cm) or more on customer request. Even widths of up to 25 ft. (7.5 m) are possible if the machine is equipped with electric vibrators (without DBI). Also available are various offset molds and a variety of typical offset options, such as trimmers, different conveyor belts or augers. The three- or four-crawler version of the SP 61i can slipform medium to large concrete profiles to the left or right of the machine. Contours of almost any shape — roadway edging, concrete safety barriers, water gullies and paths up to 12 ft. (3.6 m) wide — can be produced cost-efficiently and in high quality. Due to their increased stroke, the lifting columns can now be raised up to 44 in. (110 cm), and have 17 percent more power than in the SP 500. This gives the user much greater flexibility, particularly in tight job site situations, for instance when lifting a slipform for a concrete safety barrier. Due to its higher power reserves, it can now handle heavier offset slipforms to expand its range of applications, according to the manufacturer. SP 60 Series: Link Between Inset and Offset Pavers With the new SP 60 series, Wirtgen has expanded the variety of applications in its class of machines for widths of up to 20 ft. (6 m) (inset paving) and increased the range of offset applications. The SP 60 series rounds out the high end of the offset line, comprising the SP 15i and SP 25i. In terms of inset pavers, it bridges the gap between the small and the mid-range models in the SP 90 series, with paving widths up to a maximum of 31 ft. 2 in. (9.5 m). For more information, visit www.wirtgengroup.com/america.

The new SP 60 series from Wirtgen offers flexible solutions for premium inset and offset concrete paving.

Vögele’s New Pavers Feature ErgoPlus3 The 8-ft. (2.4 m) paver segment is of central importance to many road construction companies, because with these machines they can cover a wide range of applications, from small municipal job sites to highway construction and rehabilitation. With their strong performance and a uniquely compact design, the Super 1700-3i and Super 1703-3i pavers put Germany-based Joseph Vögele AG at the forefront of technology in this field. They also integrate the practical features that make the “Dash 3” generation of SUPER pavers synonymous worldwide with modern road pavers — most notably the intuitive and ergonomic ErgoPlus 3 operating concept. Pavers in the 8-ft. class are road construction machines that are designed to achieve maximum performance both in confined conditions and on highway job sites. What may sound like conflicting objectives has led Vögele’s design engineers to a future-oriented solution. The result is the new Super 1700-3i tracked paver and Super 1703-3i wheeled paver, ultra-modern machines that are compact but powerful, and thus meet the highest demands, according to the manufacturer. The Super 1700-3i and Super 1703-3i integrate many advantages that pay off under demanding operating conditions. For example, the material handling concept that effectively counteracts thermal and mechanical segregation by such means as its cleverly designed receiving hopper, ascending conveyors and hydraulic augers, the height of which can be adjusted by 6 in. (15 cm). Maximum Ease of Operation With the Intuitive ErgoPlus 3 Operating Concept For Vögele, however, design means much more than just meeting the demands of construction companies and customers. Every Vögele development focuses above all on the user, as evidenced by the ErgoPlus 3 operating concept. It encompasses an ergonomic paver operator’s platform with numerous intelligent details, such as a hardtop with an extendable sunshade and comfortable seats that swing out to the side. The heart of the ErgoPlus 3 system is the operating consoles for the driver and screed operator. All functions are arranged here in logical groups, push-buttons support reliable operation even when wearing work gloves, and the backlit color displays make it easy to clearly read current settings, even at night or in bright sunlight. Strong Performance: Ready to Give Their All A paver that has to master a variety of construction projects must be designed for the maximum required level of performance. For the new 8-ft. pavers, combined with the Vögele front-mounted extending screed and hydraulic bolton extensions, this maximum is at 19 ft. 6 in. (5.95 m). Strong performance, even when operating at this maximum paving width, is provided by a liquid-cooled 4-cylinder Cummins diesel engine, which even functions reliably under extreme climate conditions. The engine has an output of 173 hp (129 kW) at 2,000 rpm. When working in ECO mode, which is sufficient for most applications, the engine runs at a maximum of 1,700 rpm, further reducing noise emissions and fuel consumption. Laydown Rates of up to 770 Tph The entire material handling system of the Super 1700-3i and Super 1703-3i also is designed for high output, starting with the extra-large receiving hopper with a capacity of 14.3 tons (13 t), which supports the easy and rapid supply of mix

from the trucks. Even a truck hitch is available. High-powered, separate hydraulic drives on the conveyor and auger deliver an optimum head of mix in front of the screed in every paving situation: They support high laydown rates of up to 770 tph (700 t/h). To transfer this performance onto the road, both pavers have outstanding traction. For the Super 1703-3i wheeled paver, customers have a choice between a 6x4 and 6x6 drive. Stability Combined With Variability Vögele views the paver and screed as a single system, and closely coordinates the two during development. This is evident in the combination of the Super 1700-3i and Super 1703-3i with the front-mounted VF 500 extending screed. It features extremely high stability for maximum evenness and great variability. With the ErgoPlus 3 screed console, the screed can be adjusted infinitely variably and rapidly in a range from 8 to 15 ft. 6 in. (2.45 to 4.75 m), or with bolt-on extensions to 19 ft. 6 in. (5.95 m).

Neal Manufacturing’s Generation IV pumps for retrofitting asphalt trucks easily handle high aggregate loads and feature simple maintenance steps. Neal also significantly modified asphalt truck spraybar designs, incorporating a pair of synchronized 6-ft. spraybars for the highest levels of efficiency and production.

Neal Manufacturing, a division of Blastcrete Equipment Company and a leader in asphalt pavement maintenance equipment, has launched its new Generation IV pumps. The pumps offer improved durability as well as enhanced spraybars and require less frequent routine maintenance than their predecessor, resulting in greater uptime and productivity. Road pavement maintenance contractors also save money since they can retrofit their existing asphalt trucks with the new Neal pumps Gen IV rather than purchase a new truck. “Customers are continually seeking ways to increase productivity, and once again we listened,” said Jim Farrell, Blastcrete CEO. “Our Generation IV pumps not only check all the boxes on our customers’ wish lists, but they also set the bar on aggregate load. No other pump handles more aggregates and larger aggregates than the Neal Generation IV pump.” Neal Manufacturing designed the Generation IV pumps with heavy-duty features, including robotically welded pump housings and industrial-grade hydraulic cylinders for extreme durability and longevity. These components offer enhanced reliability and last 50 percent longer than parts on the previous model, which means less downtime associated with rebuilds. “Most pumps in this industry last around 30,000 gallons before a rebuild is needed,” Farrell said. “We’ve had our first customer

hit 300,000 gallons on our Generation IV pump and it’s still going strong.” The Generation IV pump also comes with Neal’s new filtration system, which is 60 percent more compact than the previous system, more efficient and easier to maintain. The system’s compact filters weigh 98 percent less than the previous filters when full, eliminating the need for a crane during filter changes. Neal also designed the filtration system to give contractors fast and easy access to the filters, making routine cleanings more manageable, according to the manufacturer. Neal installs the system with dual spraybars rather than one. Each spraybar is synchronized with one 100-gpm Generation IV pump. The pumps and spraybars work together to provide optimal efficiency and output on road pavement maintenance projects. Gen IV pumps also offer enough volume for larger orifice tips to all but eliminate tip plugging with aggregates. To ensure its customers know how to properly operate and maintain the machines, Neal offers free training seminars at its Anniston, Ala., location. All machines are tested under load before being shipped to customers. For more information, call 770/830-1282 or visit www.nealequip.com.

Bomag BM 2200/75 Cold Mill Built for Power, Production, Efficiency With its powerful 760.3-hp (567 kW) diesel engine, the new Bomag BM 2200/75 delivers high-performance milling of half-lane widths reaching 86.6 in. (220 cm) at precise milling depths of up to 13.8 in. (35 cm). Offering a range of quick-change milling drums options and efficient transition of engine to milling power, this largest cold mill in the Bomag product line is ideally suited for high performance applications such as major county roads, highways, interstates and airports, according to the manufacturer. Perfected over decades of design research and field experience, Bomag’s BMS 15 milling tooth holder system delivers increased milling productivity with low wear to extended service life by up to 30 percent over other cutting systems. The base tooth holder features a maintenance-free bolt-on design that does not require retightening to reduce service time. Featuring a low-resistance profile, the tapered tooth retainer claw delivers more cutting power with less wear. When cutting tool changing is required, the holder’s quickchange design requires approximately 25 percent of the time required to change a full set of teeth compared to conventional systems, increasing machine uptime availability, according to the manufacturer. Built with high quality hardened materials, the milling drums for the BM 2200/75 feature optimized cutting tooth arrangement for high efficiency asphalt removal. The base section of the cutting tool holder is identical for all drums, giving contractors a lower cost for replacement parts. Material ejector plates boast a symmetrical design, so they can be rotated and used twice, cutting replacement costs in half. The drum’s heavily loaded edge cutter is protected by high-performance hardened chromium carbide wear elements to increase service life, and easy access to the tool edge shortens the time for tooth exchange. With the machine’s quick-change drum design, contractors can easily switch from the standard drum for general milling to a fine milling mandrel for close tooth spacing to the power drum for demanding applications. The BM 2200/75 mill’s 35.4-in. (90 cm) wide inner and outer conveyer system quickly removes material from the cutting chamber at a flow rate of 285.5 cu. ft./min (8.1 cu m/min). The outer conveyor swivels 60 degrees left or right of center and discharges material at a height of 16.4 ft. (5 m),

allowing the mill to efficiently convey material to trucks positioned at either side of the machine. For machine transport, the conveyor hydraulically folds to reduce machine height and length, improving flexibility and ease of moving the mill from site-to-site. An integrated service platform simplifies and reduces the time for daily maintenance procedures, further improving machine uptime. All major service points, including the water system, air filter, cooling system and engine components are centralized for fast access, while high visibility markings help the technician to quickly locate machine service points The mill’s standard auxiliary one-cylinder engine provides supplemental power for refilling water tanks, cutting tooth replacement and machine cleaning, significantly reducing fuel consumption for these maintenance tasks. Accessed from ground level, large storage compartments allow for transporting tools and replacement parts. Mounted on rubber isolation buffers, the operator platform design minimizes vibration feedback to the operator, ensuring a comfortable working environment. The rotor and platform’s central machine positioning gives the operator enhanced view of both edges of the cutter housing and the entire working area to improve operating safety. The mill features an adjustable operator’s seat that slews and swivels 45 degrees for fatigue free machine operation. Logical gauge positioning and self-explanatory controls on the dash panels improve operator efficiency and allow new operators to quickly learn machine operation. The Bomag BM 2200/75 mill’s 760.3-hp liquid cooled diesel engine meets stringent Tier IV Final/Stage IV emissions standards. The 4-crawler mill features all-crawler steering and crab walk and delivers a maximum working speed of 0 to 229.7 fpm (0 to 70 m/min). Simple selection of three milling speeds — ECO/Torque, universal and speed — via a three-stage switch offers excellent utilization of torque and power for higher productivity with reduced fuel consumption and less wear, according to the manufacturer.

Kubota Corporation headquartered in Osaka, Japan, announced that it will donate $1 million in relief funds to include monetary contributions and Kubota equipment to several national and local charitable organizations to aid in the Hurricane Harvey relief efforts. The company also is committed to helping in the cleanup and restoration efforts by utilizing Kubota construction and tractor equipment where needed in the affected areas. “Kubota has a long-standing history of providing natural disaster assistance to those in need with financial and volunteer support, and with the use of donated Kubota equipment,” said Masatoshi Kimata, president and representative director, Kubota Corporation. Masato Yoshikawa, president and CEO of Kubota Tractor Corporation, based in the company’s North American headquarters in Grapevine, Texas, echoed the sentiment.

“As a newly-relocated Texas company, and with a large group of Kubota dealers and employees working and living in this area of the country, we stand ready to help our south Texas and Louisiana neighbors cleanup and rebuild the region,” he said. While it is still early to assess the full impact and damage from Hurricane Harvey in south Texas and Louisiana, Kubota has confirmed that all of its dealers and their families and employees are safe. Once they are able, they will safely attempt to visit their locations to survey the damage in hopes of being able to quickly mobilize around relief efforts to be of service to their local communities.

Larson Electronics LLC Releases New Emergency LED Flood Light Industrial lighting leader Larson Electronics LLC has announced the newest addition to its flood light selection, an explosion proof emergency flood light with Cree LED technology and a remote battery backup, providing a powerful and energy efficient luminary for hazardous locations. This unit is an excellent replacement upgrade for bulky and high maintenance, costly fixtures, according to the company. The EPL-EMG-LED-100W-RT Class 1 Division 1 and 2, Class 2 Division 1 and 2 explosion proof emergency LED flood light provides 11,667 lumens of high quality light and draws only 100 watts. The addition of a remote mounted battery backup unit turns this flood light into a reliable and useful emergency fixture. This LED flood light will run at the standard UL suggested 90 minutes after power is lost at 2,625 lumens. Once electrical power is restored the light recharges the battery and keeps it in a steady state. On top of the emergency battery features, this flood light unit contains eight individual LED boards configured into a series of banks — each bank containing two LED boards

and a driver. This internal set up ensures that in the event of driver failure, only one driver will be affected, while the other three continue to operate as normal. This greatly increases the operational life of the fixture. To further increase the life of this explosion proof flood light, a special heat dissipating design and LED technology helps this fixture achieve a 60,000-hour rated lifespan with 80 percent lumen retention. This emergency lamp is IP67 rated, dust-proof, and protected against high pressure jets and temporary submersion, and built with copper-free aluminum alloy body coated for durability and resistance to vibration and impact. “The emergency back-up features installed in this LED flood light provide operators with an incredibly reliable fixture,” said Rob Bresnahan, CEO of Larson Electronics LLC. “An emergency battery combined with multiple independent LED drivers keeps this unit functioning in unexpected outage situations.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Global Construction Machinery Expects Excavator Demand to Exceed $50B in 2021 Global demand for excavators is forecast to advance 9.9 percent per year through 2021 to $50.6 billion, approximating the average market pace. Growth in the segment will be supported by: • advances in global building and nonbuilding construction spending • increasing mining and forestry sector production, bolstered by rising commodity prices • expanding natural gas output and minor gains in crude oil production These and other trends are presented in Global Construction Machinery, 6th Edition, a new study from The Freedonia Group, a Cleveland-based industry research firm. The development of more sophisticated excavators will contribute to segment gains in dollar terms. As advanced technologies (e.g., more fuel-efficient engines) are incorporated into new models, their cost will rise. In

response, construction, surface mining and energy companies will replace outdated excavators with better-performing machines that utilize less fuel, offer greater mobility, are easier to maintain, and are compatible with a larger number of attachments. More fuel-efficient and hybrid models also will be introduced to reduce operating costs. Global demand for all types of construction machinery is projected to increase 9.6 percent per year through 2021 to $250 billion, a major improvement over the losses posted during the 2011 to 2016 period. Multiple factors will drive global market gains in dollar terms, including increases in residential, nonresidential and nonbuilding construction activity; expansion of the global mining, forestry and energy sectors, bolstered by a recovery in commodity, natural gas and crude oil prices following a period of decline; the replacement of outdated construction

machinery by companies that delayed purchases in recent years because of weak economic conditions; and rising sales of more expensive, better performing equipment. Global Construction Machinery, 6th Edition (published 08/2017, 409 pages) is available for $6,500 from The Freedonia Group. For further details or to arrange an interview with the analyst, please contact Corinne Gangloff by phone 440/684-9600 or email pr@freedoniagroup.com.

Ground Breaks at Tower of Voices Memorial for Flight 93 Flight 93 National Memorial broke ground during a “Soundbreaking” event Sept. 10 in conjunction with the Families and Friends of Flight 93 and the National Park Foundation. The construction of the Tower of Voices will stretch 93 ft. tall with 40 wind chimes to pay tribute to the 40 passengers and crew members of United Flight 93. The Design According to the National Parks Service, the cross section of the 93ft.-tall tower will curve into a “C” shape to help the sound of the chimes reflect outward. The chimes themselves will hang starting at 20 ft. from the ground, right up to the top of the tower. The walls of the tower will be made of precast concrete segments, which will be put together with connectors. The chimes will be created from aluminum tubes ranging from 8 to 16 in. in diameter and between 5 and 10 ft. long. The National Parks Service said chimes of this size

recalling the event that consecrated the site,” the National Parks Service said. The Tower will be built on a concrete oval that has been placed atop a mound, raising it up from the surrounding landscape. Two curved concrete benches will face the tower’s opening, and rings of white pines and other plants will surround the area, echoing the shape of sound waves that will come from the chimes. The $6 million project will be funded with a grant from the National Park Foundation and will become a part of more than $40 million the Foundation raised for the construction, reforestation and design of the park’s Memorial Plaza, Wall of Names, 40 Memorial Groves and Field of Honor. Construction will begin September 2017 and is expected to conclude by a dedication ceremony on Sept. 11, 2018.

Barko mulching machine.” In total, Richardson Service 1991 Inc. has 100 machines in the rental fleet and five salesmen. Alan Corbett is the company’s salesman in Texas, and Jon Flournoy, Josh Brookshire, Parker Day and Scott Lucas work in South Carolina. For the past two years, the company also has carried the Prinoth line, which includes multi-heads that work with Barko machines. The line also includes a Raptor 800, a large 640 HP self-propelled track machine, which works well on pipeline right-of-way clearing. It also completes below surface grinding. Harmer explains the shift in his company’s focus — from repair to rental — is due to technology and industry demand. “We needed computerization to service newer equipment, therefore, we had to align ourselves with manufacturers to get the technology we needed,” said Harmer. “We were falling behind on that. Now, with the SANY and Barko product lines, we can certify our technicians for all of our engines, so we do everything in-house. It’s been important to the growth of the company.” According to Harmer, running a small company allows him to have more control,

which is an advantage. “If you’ve got a problem with the machinery you bought from us, we can send a technician anywhere in the country, usually within a day.” Looking back, Harmer believes the past

26 years have been a success. “We’ve tried to focus on the customers. As I tell the guys, that’s all we have to offer. We’re small, and we need to provide good customer service. We need to be responsive if they have a problem with the machines.”

Volvo CE Fuels Development in North America, Participates in SkillsUSA Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) is continuing its support for the construction industry and helping to address the skills gap. Over the summer, Volvo CE donated an excavator to support operator training programs at Pennsylvania College of Technology, and participated in SkillsUSA and Skills Compétences Canada’s annual competitions. “In the U.S., an estimated 600,000 manufacturing jobs went unfilled in 2011 and could grow to over two million in ten years, according to a report from the Manufacturing Institute and Deloitte,” said Chuck Wood, vice president, Human Resource Management and Administration, Sales Region Americas, Volvo CE. “That’s a vast skills gap we could face, which is why it’s important for us, as an industry leader, to help support the future of our industry.” Teaming up with its dealer Highway Equipment & Supply, Volvo CE donated equipment, including an EC220D excavator, to the operator training program at Pennsylvania College of Technology. Both companies have spent more than a decade supporting Pennsylvania College of Technology with equipment donations and other training resources. Ryan Flood, vice president with Highway Equipment, also serves on the program’s advisory council. Located in Williamsport, Pa., the college is affiliated with the Pennsylvania State University and has more than 5,000 students. “The coursework at Penn College is more involved. We are learning the basics behind how to approach a job, as well as GPS technology and grading,” said Makenzie Witmer, a student of the program. Demand is high for students who complete the college’s degree in heavy construction equipment technology with an operator emphasis. “The placement rate of our operator program is around 96 percent. The demand is large, as a lot of our older generation of operators is retiring,” said Ryan Peck, operator training program instructor at Pennsylvania College of Technology. Supporting the Future Volvo CE also participated in SkillsUSA and Skills Compétences Canada’s annual competitions, which took place in Kentucky, U.S., and in

Manitoba, Canada, respectively. During the events, Volvo CE and its partners — American dealer Rudd Equipment Company and Canadian dealer Westcon Equipment & Rentals Ltd. — exhibited equipment, offered students simulator training, and participated in panels discussing skills students needed to stay competitive in the industry. “It was very rewarding to share the exciting changes happening in our field of expertise with the younger generations and to encouraged them to start a career in the industry,” Wood said. “The energy in the experienced professionals who served as judges and exhibitors was also high, and it’s refreshing to see them transferring expertise and skills knowledge to young students.” Even though new technologies are making jobs faster and easier, Wood advised that students should continue to develop and hone in on basic skills to maintain competitiveness. “For example, a pilot should be able to navigate a plane smoothly even if the autopilot is not available,” Wood said. “Good skills not only lead to jobs, but also serve as the foundation from where you grow to achieve greater career success.” The SkillsUSA National Leadership and Skills Conference attracted more than 15,000 students, teachers, educa-

tion leaders and representatives from more than 600 national and regional corporations, trade associations and labor unions. About 6,000 state contest winners competed in 100 different trade, technical and leadership fields at this national event. The Skills Canada National Competition attracted 7,500 students from across Canada. More than 500 students from secondary or post-secondary schools were tested on their skills in six different sectors, including construction, manufacturing and engineering, employment, information technology, transportation and service. Based in Louisville, Ky., Rudd Equipment provides complete equipment sales and service support to the mining, construction and associated industries in America. Headquartered in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Westcon Equipment & Rentals Ltd. supplies products and services to the construction, aggregate, road building and forestry markets in Canada.

Atlas Copco Expands Dewatering Pumps LineWith High Flow Models Atlas Copco Construction Equipment North America has expanded its offering for the dewatering market with the launch of more than 30 new heavy-duty, high-capacity pumps. This includes the addition of three high-flow models to its PAS range of centrifugal dry prime pumps. The new pumps are capable of accommodating flows of up to 6,164 gal. (23,333 L) per minute. “Since acquiring Varisco we’ve established a consistent presence in the dewatering market,” said Joe Moser, product manager — Pumps at Atlas Copco Construction Equipment North America. “The new single-brand portfolio provides our customers with the best choice and widest flexibility when selecting a high-quality pump for their application.” Atlas Copco’s offering for the dewatering market is comprised of highly efficient wet and dry prime centrifugal pumps for construction, drainage and emergency applications, plus specialized models for wellpoint applications and pumping abrasive liquids and bentonite mud. A new piston positive displacement pump has been launched that is specially designed to run dry without damaging internal components. It is ideally suited for wellpoint applications where the volume and depth of water is low. The new pump range is Atlas Copco branded, although the Varisco name is retained as part of the VAR range of centrifugal wet prime pumps and will therefore remain synonymous with first-class dewatering solutions. The Varisco brand also will continue be used exclusively for the industrial pump range. To offer customers extra flexibility, all ranges can be supplied with a diesel engine or an electric motor as part of Atlas Copco’s E-Pump concept. Furthermore, up to six modular configurations are possible per range. Dependent on the range, pumps can be supplied on a standard pump block, a basic or flexi-skid, or as part of a trailer, crate or fully con-

Panel Puller Provides Site Access Relief The Pro-Tec Equipment panel puller is a 90-ton (81.6 t) hydraulic slide rail panel extraction system. Designed to enable either direct connection to an excavator’s auxiliary hydraulic system or an external power pack that provides 5,000 psi to enable maximum pulling force, the Panel Puller delivers enough force to extract slide rail panels. Using a 4.9 in. (12.5 cm) diameter piston, and the ability to apply upwards of 89,900 lbf (400kN) of lifting force, the panel puller slowly and steadily lifts slide rail panels. The Pro-Tec Equipment panel puller provides enough force to pull a slide rail panel to an easily accessible extraction point. Designed with a 3.3 ft. (1m) stroke and multiple strap connections, the panel puller is able to achieve this through multiple lifts, while sitting on top of the excavation. Additionally, the

Floridians Are Resilient While many areas in Florida sustained severe damage, the Keys received the brunt of the hit. “My understanding is the Keys will need a some time to come back,” said Blodgett. “Naples and Jacksonville had

Power Outages Wreak Havoc on Hillsborough County In a news briefing on Sept. 11, Eric Silagy, president and chief executive of Florida Power & Light (FPL), said that more than half of the population of Florida was without power. These outages had obvious consequences for residents who had to deal with temperatures that topped 80 degrees in Miami and Tampa. But as Win Blodgett, president of Holland Pump, pointed out, power outages also can wreak havoc on municipal services. “Hillsborough county is facing a situation that many of the other municipalities with massive power outages are facing,” said Blodgett. “I was told they have 800 lift stations to handle the sewer systems throughout the county. Every neighborhood will have a lift station; every shopping center will have a lift station. The pumps that run those lift stations are generally electric pumps, so when you have a power outage, you either have to have a backup generator to run it, or you have to have a backup diesel pump to run it. However, my understanding is they don’t have 800 dedicated gen sets they need for their lift stations, so they have to juggle their resources. They’re relying heavily on the various pump rental companies to come in and help. We have competitors in this business, but right now we’re all trying to work cooperatively together and deal with the problem and get people’s lives back in order.” Blodgett said that he is currently diverting 100 pumps as well as generators to help his customers in Hillsborough county and other areas affected by the storm. “We transferred pumps from Pensacola, Jacksonville, West Palm Beach as well as Walterboro, S.C., in addition to brand new pumps directly from the factory to Hillsborough to help them with the current crisis. Collier County and Duval County in Jacksonville, at this moment, are not even in a state to deal with this because the flooding is so intense. They’re still doing search and rescue, so they haven’t gotten to the point where they have a plan of how to deal with the problem. I know Hillsboro is one county starting to take care of it.” Further north, Josh Steele, corporate marketing manager of construction and forestry division of Flint Equipment, said power outages and flooding had affected their locations as well. The company’s Brunswick, Ga., location had access issues due to flooding in the area, but didn’t experience major interruptions to its operations. Its Savannah and Atlanta locations, however, experienced more serious issues. “In Savannah, it’s been more about the power outage and utilities more than anything,” said Steele. “We have other branches that have been affected. Here in Atlanta, we still don’t have phones or internet [as of Sept. 13]. The Braselton location just got phones back. “As of this morning [Sept. 13], Glen County still won’t let residents back into the county; roads are still unpassable. The Brunswick location is still up in the air. Savannah of course is dependent on when they can restore power, phones and internet.”

some devastating flooding as well. We have been helping citrus farmers in Fort Pierce region but in general I think we faired quite well in West Palm Beach. We had 60 to 75 mph winds for 12 hours, maybe among the longest of area in the state, but we didn’t have super strong winds. We were on the East Coast, so we didn’t get the storm surge that the West Coast did.” “I’ve been really impressed with the state of Florida as a whole — how well prepared our citizens were. They really took this storm seriously. Maybe it’s because Harvey had just happened. The people that needed to evacuate seemed to have evacuated for the most part. Businesses were well prepared. I thought the Governor did a great job. The state as a whole — all of the different organizations involved in the effort — did a super job.” Roseberry also had high praise for the state and its leadership “Our governor Rick Scott did a phenomenal job of prepping everything,” said Roseberry. “President Trump certainly responded. My hat is really off to the power crews that came in from out of state. I know we had some lines down by one of the main roads near our subdivision and everybody working that was from Pennsylvania and they did a phenomenal job. The power crews and the tree guys did a great, great job of getting service back as quickly as they could.” Vazquez reflected on the overall scope of the storm. “First of all, it was the largest storm in recorded history,” said Vazquez. “The storm had gusts of wind up to 220 milesper-hour; it was an enormous storm. It was the size of Ohio. The storm literally affected the whole state of Florida. We are very fortunate that it went to the west coast and it lost a lot of power, and by the time it got to Lakeland, it was already down to a Cat 1. Our biggest concern in Florida is definitely the Keys. We are very sad about what happened there. There is an enormous amount of loss. However, I personally think that with the resiliency of the people here in Florida, within a few months, most of the state will be back to normal and the Keys will be working toward normalcy.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Loveman, Plastics Machinery Join Forces Under One Roof Competition among trench safety product manufacturers can be fierce. Depending on market conditions, even companies with a firm foundation and excellent products can face more than their fair share of challenges. Loveman Steel Corporation experienced this when they entered into receivership in the summer of 2015. Established in 1931 and located in Bedford Heights, Ohio, Loveman Steel Corporation, manufacturers of stone and safety trench boxes, was a family-owned business, specializing in the design and fabrication of products for such diverse industries as construction, mining and material handling, scrap processing, petro-chemicals, power generation, and transportation. A list of recent clients included Metso Minerals and Mitsubishi-Hitachi Corporation, as well as several leading steel manufacturers and energy corporations. Still, in the summer of 2015, it was apparent that a change was needed if the company was to survive. Another Company Looks for Change At the same time, Donald A. Kruschke, president and CEO of Solon, Ohio-based Plastics Machinery Group, whose primary business is purchasing and selling equipment for its customers and also is involved with mergers, acquisitions, plant liquidations and appraisals. The company had experienced significant growth and the change Kruschke had in mind was the addition of a warehouse to store and show machines under power for customers to demonstrate the equipment. His search led him to Loveman Steel’s facility, boasting high bays, heavy crane capacity and high power availability which seemed more than adequate for his needs. Kruschke hadn’t planned on getting into the steel manufacturing business, but as he learned about Loveman Steel and its capabilities, he was impressed with the products and, more significantly, the positive attitude and work ethic of the company’s employees. He felt there was a great deal of potential and Kruschke entered into negotiations with the receiver and by late 2016, took ownership of the company, now known as Loveman Steel and Fabrication. Reviving Loveman Steel The job ahead was no small task. Loveman Steel enjoyed past annual sales volume as high as $52 million, but by 2015, the company’s sales had fallen to approximately $17 million. With his primary goal of getting Loveman Steel

Donald A. Kruschke (L), president and CEO of both Loveman Steel & Fabrication and Plastics Machinery Group, joined Loveman Steel & Fabrication’s Chief Operating Officer Rob Campbell to inspect a new stone box being custom painted in Ohio State’s scarlet & gray.

New lighting and new state-of-the-art factory grade flooring serve the dual purpose of increasing safety and efficiency for employees, while also providing space for both Loveman Steel & Fabrication and Plastic Machinery Group’s customers to come see the equipment they offer.

back on a profitable track, Kruschke contacted and met with the company’s customers to share his vision and secure new business agreements. Concurrently, Kruschke initiated a plan to update the plant and office space and to streamline the operations. So far, he has invested more than $1.5 million to upgrade the facility from the ceiling to the floors, and to improve the visibility and workplace environment within the plant. The once dark facility has been painted and new lighting, as well as new state-of-the-art factory grade flooring are being installed. According to Kruschke, “The renovations have not only improved safety, but made operations more efficient, they’ve also gone a long way toward boosting the attitudes and enthusiasm of our employees.” A strong focus on employee morale is an important part of Kruschke’s management style, and he added, “I believe in taking care see LOVEMAN page 92

Puerto Rico Sees Widespread Flooding in Maria’s Wake MARIA from page 1

winds, the strongest hurricane to hit Puerto Rico in over 80 years. Uprooted trees and widespread flooding blocked many highways and streets across the island, creating a maze that forced drivers to go against traffic and past police cars that used loudspeakers to warn people they must respect a 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew imposed by the governor to ensure everyone’s safety. “This is going to be a historic event for Puerto Rico,” said Abner Gomez, the island’s emergency management director. President Donald Trump approved a federal disaster declaration for Puerto Rico. Previously a Category 5 with 175 mph winds, Maria hit Puerto Rico as the thirdstrongest storm to make landfall in the U.S., based on its central pressure. It was even stronger than Hurricane Irma that roared into the Florida Keys earlier this month. In the capital of San Juan, towering eucalyptus trees fell nearly every other block over a main road dotted with popular bars, restaurants and coffee shops, some of which were damaged. Outside a nearby apartment building, 40-year-old tourism company operator Adrian Pacheco recounted how he spent eight hours in a stairwell huddled with

100 other residents when the hurricane ripped the storm shutters off his building and decimated three balconies. “I think people didn’t expect the storm to reach the point that it did,” he said. “Since

“This is going to be a historic event for Puerto Rico.” Abner Gomez Puerto Rico’s Emergency Management Director

Irma never really happened, they thought Maria would be the same.” Hurricane Irma sideswiped Puerto Rico on Sept. 6, leaving more than 1 million people without power but causing no deaths or widespread damage like it did on nearby islands. Maria, however, blew out windows at some hospitals and police stations, turned some streets into roaring rivers and destroyed hundreds of homes across Puerto Rico, including 80 percent of houses in a small fishing community near the San Juan

Bay, which unleashed a storm surge of more than 4 feet. “Months and months and months and months are going to pass before we can recover from this,” Felix Delgado, mayor of the northern coastal city of Catano, told The Associated Press. The sound of chain saws began to fill the silence that spread across San Juan late Sept. 20 as firefighters began to remove trees and used small bulldozers to lift toppled concrete light posts. Some neighbors pitched in to help clear the smaller branches, including Shawn Zimmerman, a 27-year-old student from Lewistown, Pa., who moved to Puerto Rico nearly two years ago. “The storm didn’t bother me,” he said. “It’s the devastation. I get goosebumps. It’s going to take us a long time.” Maria has caused at least 10 deaths across the Caribbean, including seven in the hardhit island of Dominica and two in the French Caribbean territory of Guadeloupe. Puerto Rico’s governor told CNN one man died after being hit by flying debris. No further details were available, and officials could not be immediately reached for comment. Maria weakened to a Category 2 storm later in the day but re-strengthened to Category 3 status early Sept. 21 with winds

of 115 mph. It was centered about 70 mi. north of Punta Cana, Dominican Republic and moving northwest near 9 mph. The hurricane was still dumping rain overnight Sept. 20 in Puerto Rico, where crumbled red roof tiles lay scattered across many roads, and curious residents sidestepped and ducked under dozens of black power lines still swaying in heavy winds. But they posed no danger: Maria caused an island-wide power outage, with officials unable to say when electricity would return. Puerto Rico’s electric grid was crumbling amid lack of maintenance and a dwindling staff even before the hurricanes knocked out power. Many now believe it will take weeks, if not months, to restore power. Edwin Rosario, a 79-year-old retired government worker, said an economic crisis that has sparked an exodus of nearly half a million Puerto Ricans to the U.S. mainland will only make the island’s recovery harder. “Only us old people are left,” he said as he scraped a street gutter in front of his house free of debris. “A lot of young people have already gone. If we don’t unite, we’re not going to bounce back.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Quality, Customer Service Go Hand-in-Hand at Loveman LOVEMAN from page 90

of the employees. There’s no separation here between the office and the factory, we’re all part of the same team.” Although Loveman Steel and Plastic Machinery Group will continue to function as two distinct businesses, both will ultimately be co-located at the facility. Family Businesses Like Loveman Steel, Plastic Machinery Group’s began in the 1990s as a family business managed by Kruschke, his father and his late brother. The company, named Stopol, consisted of four divisions and in 2009, Kruschke went independent, purchasing the assets out of receivership in 2009 when the economy went down. Buying the company’s thermoforming and extrusion division; he renamed the operations Plastic Machinery Group. Taking a New Approach – Customized Stone and Safety Trench Boxes Many of the products and services provided by Loveman Steel will remain the same, but Kruschke has introduced a completely new business approach. As he sees it, equipment quality must be matched by customer

service that go well beyond a standard business transaction. According to Kruschke, “If a customer wants something in ten days, we’ll deliver in seven.” The company is also offering custom painting services with stone boxes and safety trench boxes featuring the customer’s logo and colors, making each piece into a billboard for the company. As a means of adding value and making ownership of Loveman Steel & Fabrication products more attractive, they’re also offering self-financing with 24, 36 and 48 month terms. As Kruschke explains it, “The equipment we offer is an asset for our customers which qualify for the Section 179 tax deduction and the option to purchase as opposed to rent converts an operating cost into an investment for our customers.” According to Kruschke, communication is key to understanding and anticipating customer needs. The approach also incorporates a strong reliance on data, which enables the company to track its customers’ businesses and brand preferences while informing future product advances. Two long-term Loveman Steel employees are playing an integral role in the company’s turnaround. Rob Campbell has been with the compa-

ny for more than 20 years and has been named chief operating officer, while Tom Bristow, who joined the company nine years ago, serves as operations manager and sales. For the construction industry, Loveman Steel & Fabrication engineers help fabricate a wide range of durable safety trench boxes, stone boxes, portable bridges, street plates

and offers custom fabrication services. For more information, visit http://www.lovemansteel.com/ and http://www.plasticsmg.com/. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG
