Since its establishment in 1937, the Nashville International Airport has undergone numerous name changes, expansions and renovations. The public/military airport in southeast Nashville, Tenn., currently hosts 16 airlines with 585 daily flights, including nonstop flights to more than 70 cities in North America and Europe. In addition, Berry Field Air National Guard Base is located at the airport — which was the genesis for the airport’s IATA identifier: BNA. Growth in passenger numbers and flights has increased at BNA substantially since 2011, with total passengers hitting a record 10.3 million in 2013. In 2017, the airport was named the fastest growing airport of any size and was given an award a year prior to acknowledge its 11.2 percent growth in passenger traffic in the mid-sized category. Nashville International Airport reported a 15 percent increase in passenger travel last year while continuing to hold claim to the title of fastest growing airport in the country. With the number of passengers climbing and goals of adding more non-stop destinations, increasing cargo service and broadening international flights, it became clear that the terminal, built in 1987, was inadequate to keep pace with the airport’s growth. Therefore, the Metro see BNA page 14

CEG CORRESPONDENT
General contractors and subcontractors across the nation are witnessing increases in construction costs, be it for department of transportation contracts or commercial, industrial, institutional and residential projects. While some companies, due to their size and geographical range, have been aware of the trend from the beginning, others are dealing with it on a case-by-case basis and are seeking data to confirm their suspicions.
“If you think construction is getting more expensive, you’re right,” Ken Simonson, chief economist of The Associated General Contractors of America, told Construction Equipment Guide. “The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) compiles a producer price index (PPI) that measures the change in what contractors say they would charge to put up a set of specific non-residential buildings. By asking the same contractors about the same set of hypothetical buildings each month, BLS is able to compare ‘apples to apples.’ “The PPI for new non-residential building
construction increased 5.6 percent from August 2018 to August 2019,” he added. “In contrast, the consumer price index (CPI) — the most commonly cited measure of inflation as experienced by consumers — increased only 1.7 percent over that period. Over the past three years, when construction costs began to accelerate, the ‘bid price’ index has risen 13 percent, while the CPI climbed just 7 percent.” According to Simonson, construction costs have been driven by an acute shortage of hourly craft workers and by tariffs on steel, see COSTS page 20

Women In Construction: Carolina Cat’s Chelsea Parker By Joe Trinacria CEG ASSOCIATE EDITOR
By working at Carolina Cat as a territory sales representative, Chelsea Parker has had the professional good fortune of not having to stray too far from her home base of Swannanoa, N.C. The small western community with a population of roughly 5,000 residents is part of the greater Asheville Metropolitan Statistical Area, which just so happens to be the territory that Parker covers for the Caterpillar equipment dealer. Being a woman in a male-dominated industry certainly comes with its own set of challenges; however, there seems to a prevailing perception that because women are considered easier to talk to, they have a bit of an advantage in sales-related fields. Meanwhile, Parker believes that any edge she gains in her territory has nothing to do with gender, but rather more a product of being a native herself. “I feel that people talk to me different when they find that I grew up in Asheville,” Parker told CEG. “They trust me more and know I understand the territory.” With that trust in hand, Parker was able to land her first sale in the Asheville market, a Cat 305E2 mini-excavator. On that particular deal with Lewin Baker, Parker engaged in back-and-forth negotiations with the looming threat of competition. Not one to buckle under pressure, Parker, a former scholarship basketball player at Presbyterian College in South Carolina, was able to close the sale thanks in part to her swift response time. And it’s fitting that Parker was able to fend off this particular competitor, which happened to be the same brand that her grandfather (who was also in the construction business) was most familiar with using. Parker’s grandfather’s vast knowledge of the industry was a good source for her to tap into, especially when she first considered joining the Carolina Cat team as an administrative assistant. “I saw a job posting at Carolina Cat and I sent it to him, asking what he knew about the company,” Parker explained. “He told me if you can get a job at Carolina Cat, you will not want to leave. He said, ‘That is the reputation I know about them.’ So that is how I started looking into working there and I landed that administrative assistant job.” Parker started out working with the late Vic Morris, former general manager of Carolina Cat’s construction division, although it wasn’t long until he saw the potential in his newest employee. According to Parker, she held that administrative assistant role for less than a year before being promoted to an inside sales position where she made sales to walk-ins and cold-called potential customers. Now, 6 years later she serves as Carolina Cat’s go-to source for equipment sales in Buncombe, Henderson and Haywood counties. “We talk a lot about Carolina Cat being a trailblazing organization — and Chelsea emulates that for us. She’s a trailblazer as our first female sales rep, and we’re very proud to have her move into this new role. She has the confidence and positive attitude to thrive in the position and we are here to support her and invest in here throughout her career,” said Amanda Weisiger Cornelson, branch supervisor, South Charlotte. “With this move, and all that she’s accomplished in her tenure at Carolina Cat so far, she sets a great example for other women in our company and in the industry. I’m excited to watch her grow and succeed over many years to come.” “If we look here and think about where Chelsea can be in five to 10 years, I think she has a great opportunity to be a well-respected and top-producing salesperson for Carolina Cat,” Director of Sales Operations Shae Dwyer said of Parker. “She has determination and perseverance that she will get there. She knows how to work hard. She understands what it takes to get out there every day and work and support customers. She is really going to set the foundation of being a strong role model for males and females, here at Carolina Cat and within the industry. She is fully capable, and we are excited to see what she is going to become.” And to the young women out there who might want to follow in Parker’s footsteps, she had this to say: “I think they should do it. It’s a great industry to get into, even if it’s just being an operator. You can make great money doing so and it is a very needed field right now.” “A lot of people think that construction is dirty and you have to get your hands dirty — which some of the time, is true — but technology is completely changing the industry,” Dwyer added. “It’s not just in the dirt now, but there’s a lot of office tech work that can be done in the company at Carolina Cat. And even the technicians, the first thing they do is plug into a computer. So, it’s more technology-driven than it is in the dirt and the grease now.” CEG

GOMACO Corporation, for the first time in the company’s 55-year history, is offering diecast models for sale, exclusively at www.gomaco.com/models. The first two GOMACO concrete slipform pavers chosen to be diecast are the three-track Xtreme Commander IIIx curb and gutter machine and the four-track GP4 slipform paver. The models are 1:32 scale and feature several moveable parts. The Commander III has always been GOMACO’s iconic curb and gutter machine and the workhorse of any contractor’s fleet. It has gone through several upgrades and redesigns throughout its long history. Its latest version, the Xtreme Commander IIIx, was chosen to be one of the first two GOMACO diecast models. The actual size of the 1:32 scale model is 10.55 in. long, 3.86 in. wide, and 4.49 in. tall. It has a curb and gutter mold, trimmer, and several movable parts. The front track leg swings, the right track telescopes, the rear track slides, the tracks can travel and turn for tight radii, the trimmerhead and mold sideshift, and the trimmerhead turns. It is available for $165.00. The GP series, the GP3 and GP4, are GOMACO’s newest line of intelligent slipform pavers. The four-track GP4 was chosen to be GOMACO’s first paver diecast model. The GP4 model is equipped with a 5400 series mold with a detachable spreader plow and auger/strike-off. It is 10.43 in. long, 12.83 in. wide, and 5.82 in. tall. Like the Commander IIIx model, it features several moving parts. The spreader plow moves laterally and all four tracks travel, are moveable, and pivot to put the model into transport mode. It is available for $198.00. A limited number of diecast Commander IIIx and GP4 models were built for GOMACO. For more information, visit www.gomaco.com/models.

ConExpo-Con/AGG Partners With Women Construction Groups To highlight women as a viable force of the construction industry, ConExpo-Con/AGG announced a partnership with two women in construction-focused associations: The National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC) and Women of Asphalt (WOFA). “As the largest construction industry-focused trade show in North America, ConExpo-Con/AGG seeks to draw attention to and celebrate the important role women play in the industry,” said Dana Wuesthoff, vice president of expositions and event services with the Association of Equipment Manufacturers and ConExpo-Con/AGG show director. “Working together, ConExpo-Con/AGG, NAWIC and WOFA will not only showcase women industry leaders, but reinforce the career growth potential for women, who today represent a small percentage of the workforce and the opportunity to diversify the industry.” The organizations plan to pool their collective influence to sponsor and engage in education and other events at the show, running March 10-14, 2020 in Las Vegas. The partnership will kick-off on March 11 with a breakfast event — Genders on the Jobsite. Special guests Vicki O’Leary, founder of Be That One Guy and Lorein Barlow, director and producer of Hard Hatted Women will have a candid discussion on how women experience job site opportunities. “According to a Bureau of Labor Statistics survey, women make up only 9 percent of the total workers in construction,” said Chrissy Ingram, executive administrator of NAWIC National. “As our industry continues to grapple with a labor shortage, women are poised to help play a greater role in all areas of construction.” Social media influencer and construction business owner Missy Scherber will join other influencers, including Aaron Witt of BuildWitt, Keaton Turner of Turner Mining Group and Stacey Tompkins of Tompkins Excavating for a panel discussion and networking event in the Tech Experience. The group will answer the most pressing questions on using social media to recruit new hires, developing corporate values and culture, taking marketing to the next level and the changing face of the construction industry. “Our industry and our companies all benefit from a diverse workforce,” said Amy Miller, president of WOFA. “Through Women of Asphalt, we are looking to fulfill industry workforce needs by engaging with women at schools, through our podcast, and in-person events to show them all they can achieve with a career in the asphalt industry.” Other events include: • Widening Your Workforce: Executive Lunch Forum on Friday • New Approaches to Building Female Construction Leaders • Gain a Competitive Advantage Through Construction Technology • Attracting and Training Your Workforce: Operating Engineers’ Innovative Solutions • Several Tech Talks will feature influential women in the industry, including Allie Kelly of the Ray, Lorein Barlow film maker of Hard Hatted Woman, and Desi Matel, chief wrangler at FIT.

More Parking is Step One for Nashville Airport’s ‘Vision’ BNA from page 1
Nashville Airport Authority launched a $1.2 billion renovation called BNA Vision in 2016. BNA Vision is a growth and expansion plan comprised of several separate projects that include expanding and reopening Concourse D, constructing a new international arrivals facility, expanding and renovating the central lobby and ticketing hall and building new parking garages. The entire project is expected to be completed by 2023. The airport also is updating its master plan to accommodate future growth. The master plan update includes potential future plans such as the expansion of Concourses A and D, lengthening runway 2L/20R to better accommodate long haul flights and construction of a second terminal. Parking Garage According to Kym Gerlock, director of communications for the Nashville International Airport, new parking facilities are just one part of BNA Vision. The first garage includes a ground transportation center and 2,200 parking spaces, and is one of “only 35 parking structures in the world that have been awarded Parksmart Bronze certification,” Gerlock stated. Currently underway is a six-level, 2,800space parking garage directly across from the terminal in the footprint of the old shortterm garage, which has been demolished. It was designed and built by the Messer Construction Co. and Moody Nolan team,
and is scheduled for completion in spring 2020. The total amount of rock removed during demolition totals 25,000 cu. yds. By the time the post-tension concrete garage structure is complete, 55,000 cu. yds. of concrete will have been placed, Gerlock said. Demo work on the short-term garage began in January 2019, followed by construction of the new facility. “In February of 2019, there were 40-plus pieces of heavy machinery in the 7-acre footprint,” Gerlock stated. That list includes: • 15 track hammers • 5 track hoes • 5 rock drills • 1 rock saw • 4 cranes • 2 front-end loaders • 2 bulldozers
• 10 dump trucks Gerlock reported that eight cranes were on site at peak construction, the largest of which was a 230-ton Manitowoc 888 and the oldest of which were four Manitowoc 4000s, circa 1965. Ongoing Projects The terminal parking garage is functionally operational. Currently underway as part of BNA Vision is a new valet pick-up/drop-off area on the ground level, as well as a new 64,000-sq.-ft. airport administrative building and pedestrian plaza on the fifth level. The new office building will replace space on the fourth floor of the terminal and provide an area for the Transportation Security Administration and other airport services. Both are expected to be complete in

early 2021. A new 115,000-sq.-ft. Concourse D with six domestic aircraft gates, new dining and retail options, a live music stage and public art installations broke ground in June 2018. This project will create 200,000 sq. ft. of new space at the north and south ends of the main terminal, adding additional capacity for ticketing and four new baggage carousels. Design and construction, including renovation of 136,000 sq. ft. of existing terminal space, is by the Hensel Phelps and Fentress Architects teams. Concourse D and both north and south wing extensions are expected to open in summer 2020. A freestanding central utility plant has already been completed.

tional arrivals building. In its place will stand “an expanded and visually engaging central terminal,” according to BNA, and a state-ofthe-art international arrivals facility with six gates — tripling the current number of international arrivals gates to accommodate the rising demand for international service and attract new flights to and from Europe, Asia and Latin America, and a new Customs and Border Protection area. The 440,000-sq. ft. project includes a terminal lobby expansion and overhaul. The security checkpoint will jump to 24 lanes, more than doubling the pre-BNA Vision checkpoint of 10 lanes. see BNA page 26

Contractors Remain Busy…
Contractors, Subcontractors Shine Employment Rises Light on Rise of Construction Costs COSTS from page 1
aluminum and other construction materials and components. “A survey conducted by AGC of America and Autodesk this summer found that 80 percent of the nearly 2,000 responding contractors reported difficulty filling hourly craft positions,” he said. “In addition, 57 percent reported the same for salaried positions. Nearly as many firms expect the difficulties to remain or intensify over the coming 12 months. Removal of tariffs on Canadian and Mexican steel and aluminum, along with softening in demand for materials from automakers and other manufacturers, has caused materials costs to flatten recently, but labor-related costs continue to increase. Those costs include not only higher base pay rates (reported by two-thirds of the firms in the AGC survey), but greater expenses and longer times for recruiting, training and overtime. As a result, 44 percent of respondents say their firms have put higher prices into bids or contracts and 29 percent are quoting longer lead times.” This analysis was provided in response to comments from Shawn Massey, CCIM. CRRP, ALC, a partner with the Shopping Center Group, noted that construction costs in the Memphis, Tenn., area and the Southeast in general have risen by as much as 18 to 25 percent due the ongoing shortage of construction workers, increases in the price of materials and impacts of hurricanes, flooding and other weather-related factors. “During the last 18 to 36 months we have seen a drastic increase in our construction budgets that were unaccounted for based on historical numbers and reasonable inflation or contingencies,” Massey said. “Besides the labor shortage, natural disasters in Texas and Florida have driven up the cost of construction materials for sheetrock and other materials. The booming economy has an effect that workers can choose which projects to work on and thus projects that can afford more get the workers. Some deals will never get done as rents required to justify new construction pricing are simply not there.” Simonson, in the Sept. 13 edition of the AGC Data DIGest, provided the latest statistics regarding PPI based on an AGC analysis of PPIs that the BLS posted on Sept. 11.
“Compared to August 2018, the PPI for new non-residential building construction — a measure of the price that contractors say they would charge to build a fixed set of buildings — rose 5.6 percent,” he wrote. “Increases ranged from 4.2 percent year-over-year (y/y) for new healthcare building construction to 4.8 percent for office buildings, 5.6 percent for warehouses, 6.6 percent for industrial buildings and 6.9 percent for schools. “Increases in PPIs for subcontractors’ new, repair and maintenance work on non-residential buildings ranged from 2.4 percent y/y for roofing contractors to 5.6 percent for electrical contractors, 5.8 percent for plumbing contractors and 7.2 percent for concrete contractors,” Simonson added. “In contrast to these output prices, the PPI for inputs to construction —excluding capital investment, labor and imports — edged up only 0.4 percent y/y, a sharp deceleration from the 6.4 percent increase one year earlier.” The index also covers goods (56 percent) and services (44 percent), and it found that the PPI for energy inputs to the construction sector fell by 13 percent y/y, while non-energy goods inputs increased by 1.3 percent y/y. Regarding the index for services inputs, it increased 1.9 percent y/y. “Price increases turned negative for some previously fast-rising inputs such as diesel fuel (down 18 percent y/y, following a 35 percent jump a year earlier), lumber and plywood (-12 percent y/y, following a 6 percent rise); steel mill products (-11 percent y/y, following an 18 percent gain); gypsum products (-8.4 percent y/y, following a 7.5 percent rise); and aluminum mill shapes (-5.2 percent y/y, following a 15 percent gain),” Simonson wrote. “In contrast, the PPI for architectural coatings rose 6.5 percent y/y vs. 4.7 percent a year earlier.” In the Aug. 27 edition of the AGC Data DIGest, Simonson addressed the labor shortage, citing data garnered by the Autodesk-AGC of America 2019 Workforce Survey, which gathered information from 1,935 respondents. “Filling craft positions and some salaried positions remains as great a challenge for contractors as it was a year ago,” Simonson stated. “Ninetyone percent report their firms plan to hire hourly craft personnel in the next 12 months for expansion (19 percent)
or replacement (72 percent), close to the 93 percent who said the same in the 2018 survey. But 80 percent stated they were having a hard time filling some hourly craft positions (same as in 2018). In addition, 57 percent said they were having a hard time filling some salaried positions (vs. 56 percent in 2018), while 12 percent reported no difficulty and 32 percent had no openings. “For all but one of 20 specific craft positions listed in the survey, at least half of respondents whose firms employ that craft said filling positions was harder than last year. The sole exception was painters, with 49 percent of respondents saying they were harder to find than last year. The hardest craft positions to fill were concrete workers, reported as harder to fill than a year ago by 69 percent of firms; pipelayers reported by 66 percent; carpenters, equipment operators and cement masons, each cited by 65 percent. For each craft, fewer than four percent of respondents said filling the position was easier than last year, while seven to 20 percent said they hired without difficulty.” Regarding the 10 salaried positions that were studied, 48 percent of respondents said project manager/supervisor positions were harder to fill than last year. For engineers, it was 37 percent and 33 percent for environmental compliance professionals. To secure more hourly craft workers, more firms when compared to 2018 increased base pay rates due to the difficulty of filling positions. Engaging in career-building programs as a means to increase the labor supply of firms rose from 48 to 50 percent. In a bid to find executive and non-craft workers, 29 percent of the companies called on the services of search firms, the same as in 2018. This was also done to secure craft workers, although there was a five percent decrease to 27 percent. “To replace workers or skills, 29 percent of firms invested in technology to automate processes to supplement worker duties; 24 percent used laborsaving equipment (e.g., drones, robots, 3-D printers, laser- or GPS-guided equipment); and 23 percent used methods to reduce on-site worktime (e.g., lean construction, virtual construction or offsite fabrication),” wrote Simonson, who also noted that “nearly see COSTS page 22
as Firms Hire Amid Tight Labor Market
Construction employment grew in 231, or 65 percent, out of 358 metro areas between October 2018 and October 2019, declined in 69 and was unchanged in 58, according to a new analysis of federal employment data released Nov. 25 by the Associated General Contractors of America. Association officials said hourly craftworker positions remain difficult to fill despite the widespread job gains, and they urged federal officials to promote more workplace-based immigration, along with career and technical education. “Employers in most areas remain busy and eager to hire workers, but they struggle to find qualified employees in many metros,” said Ken Simonson, the association’s chief economist. “The fact that job openings in construction set record highs each month suggests that more metros would post gains in construction employment if eligible workers were available.” The Dallas-Plano-Irving, Texas metro area added the most construction jobs during the past year (14,300 jobs, 10 percent). Other metro areas adding a large number of construction jobs during the past 12 months include Phoenix-MesaScottsdale, Ariz. (9,800 jobs, 8 percent); Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale, Calif. (9,700 jobs, 6 percent) and Las Vegas-Henderson-Paradise, Nev. (8,000 jobs, 12 percent). The largest percentage gain occurred in Omaha-Council Bluffs, Neb.-Iowa (20 percent, 5,900 jobs), followed by Auburn-Opelika, Ala. (15 percent, 400 jobs) and BendRedmond, Ore. (14 percent, 1,000 jobs). Construction employment reached a new October high in 76 metro areas and a new October low in two areas. The largest number of job losses between October 2018 and October 2019 occurred in New York City (minus 6,200 jobs, minus 4 percent), followed by Chicago-NapervilleArlington Heights, Ill. (minus 4,700 jobs, minus 3 percent); Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, Calif. (minus 3,100 jobs minus 3 percent) and Baton Rouge, La. (minus 2,500 jobs, minus 4 percent). The largest percentage decrease took place in Fairbanks, Alaska (minus 13 percent, minus 400 jobs), followed by Watertown-Fort Drum, N.Y. (minus 10 percent, minus 200 jobs); Longview, Texas (minus 10 percent, minus 1600 jobs) and Wichita Falls, Texas (minus 10 percent, minus 300 jobs). Association officials said the growing number of construction job openings shows the importance of measures to increase the supply of potential workers. The officials urged the Trump administration and Congress to make it easier to bring in workers for specific jobs that cannot be filled domestically and to strengthen career and technical education opportunities for students seeking alternatives to college. “Sustained economic growth depends on having a growing supply of both qualified workers and new entrants to expanding sectors such as construction,” said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association’s chief executive officer. “Construction firms are doing their best to address labor shortages, but federal officials can play a major role by putting in place needed immigration reforms and by adequately funding career and technical education.”

Swinging Costs Prove Hard to Predict Marketplace-E COSTS from page 20
half of respondents said projects have taken longer (44 percent) and/or costs have been higher than anticipated (43 percent), while 44 percent have put higher prices into bids or contracts and 29 percent have put in longer times.” General contractors from various regions were contacted for their reaction to the data, and they confirmed the situation facing the construction sector. “As a mechanical subcontractor, we represent a large portion of the overall labor force on a given project,” said Bruce W. Tibbetts, president of Virginia-based EMC Mechanical Services. “Labor costs over the last year have increased steadily, adversely affecting our existing backlog. We experience schedule compression on almost every project we are involved with. All it takes is for one trade to fall behind schedule on a given project and from there is a domino effect for the entire project team. We are working to pre-fabricate more of our work off site to help get ahead and/or keep pace without the cost of overtime and too many hours in a given week for our workers.” Tibbetts noted that pricing for materials over the last year has been up and down, especially with continuous talks around tariffs. “It has become standard practice to add a contingency line for material/ equipment increases,” he said. “We try to stay in constant communication with our suppliers, but even the short-term swings are hard to predict. Going forward, owners and contractors need to agree on a way to share the risks, otherwise we will have to put in higher reserves.” Asked how his company’s private sector and government clients have reacted to price increases, Tibbetts replied: “This varies greatly across the board. With some local, state and county agencies we are finding that they understand that labor shortages have a direct impact on the eventual project delivery schedule.” Bill Fetters, vice president of engineering/estimating with Philadelphia’s Buckley & Co. Inc., noted that the increases are taken into account at the planning level. “We are heavy highway contractors and mostly bid to government agencies — the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation and the city of Philadelphia — where indexes are provided for steel, asphalt and fuel, and that offers some protection,” Fetters said. “Most of our commodities —
concrete and rebar, outside trucking, etc., are relatively predictable. Theoretically our competitors have to deal with the same issues, so we see it as a wash. We are a union contractor, and our field supervision reports that there have been problems obtaining dependable skilled labor for short notice production pushes. This is being offset by having our crews put in more overtime hours. “After a completive bid is awarded, we try to lock in prices by having subcontracts and purchase orders expeditiously prepared and executed,” Fetters added. “This provides some protection. However, there is the occasional specialty item which can bite you. Recently, a resin-type concrete mold jumped 15 percent in a year purportedly due to regulatory issues.” The government agencies that Buckley & Co. deal with tend to express surprise when they open bids and the prices are higher than their engineers estimate, Fetters stated. So if they’re successful, Buckley & Co. has to perform pre-award justifications for re-budgeting purposes. Katie Haydon Perry, director of organizational development with Haydon Building Corp., Phoenix, Ariz., participated in AGC of America discussions about the cost increases. “The Phoenix metro area and Phoenix-Tuscon area economies are blazing, and there’s so much work here that we strategized to keep the bulk of our work in Arizona so we can keep our guys working close to home,” Perry said. “The increase in costs means decreases in profit and that’s been the biggest shift for us. Really getting creative is important. We have people who think outside of the box that are looking for ways to do things in a more cost-effective way. “Increased wages and salaries mean we have to be more cognizant of what overtime looks like,” she added. “Schedules are tighter and we have a lot more overtime hours being logged. This is being factored in from the beginning, especially with scheduled pushes and big pushes at the end of our projects. We want to make sure that we stay inside that budget. It’s a challenge and it forces us to be better.” The labor shortage is a “big issue” for Haydon. “We have less skilled personnel on our staff, which means more oversight and training is needed for new people, which also means more constraints on our superintendents and upper level
management,” Perry said. “We’ve increased our hiring process, including a panel for salaried people. We do more extensive training from day one because a lot of times we’re getting people who’ve never done construction before as our industry pays higher than most entry-level positions.” With all the advanced technology entering the industry and use of more sophisticated equipment, foremen often have to “hand hold” new Haydon employees as they become familiar with the tools. “We have to make sure that new guys really understand the implications of their decisions and how they affect the whole team,” Perry stated. On prices for materials, she explained that Haydon has looked at different material types and methods to reduce costs. Reinforced concrete channel, concrete and rebar increased in price by about 25 percent. The company used value engineering to design a soil cement channel reducing overall cost by 40 percent, which also helped reduce the amount of labor required. Price increases are causing budget stress for the firm’s private sector and government clients. “During programming we are providing multiple phasing options so they can build what they can afford now and have options to complete as the dollars become available in the future,” Perry explained. The Ohio-based Rudolph Libbe Group has seen construction costs increase somewhat more than the cost of living index, but has not seen owners delaying or cancelling construction projects as a result. “There’s no way to predict the future, but interest rates are still very competitive, and the economy continues to be very solid so owners tend to keep moving forward with projects,” said Jeff Schaller, vice president, preconstruction operations, Rudolph Libbe Inc. “This business climate is requiring everyone to be more proactive when it comes to staffing and planning projects. When owners involve us in the earliest stages of project planning, we have the best opportunity to help control and monitor cost as much as possible. Those who don’t can be very surprised when costs are higher than expected after the design is complete.” Nor has the labor shortage affected the company’s pursuit of projects. “We always take into account manpower availability when we qualify or select opportunities, and that’s true see COSTS page 27
Solution Surpasses $500M in Sales Ritchie Bros. has been a leader in the auction business for decades. Its live unreserved auctions help tens of thousands of companies sell and buy equipment and trucks annually. And yet, not every company is interested in selling without a reserve — they want access to Ritchie Bros.’ global buying base, but need more control over the selling price, timing, and/or process. Enter Marketplace-E, Ritchie Bros.’ online sales solution with Make Offer, Buy Now and Reserve options, serving the construction, transportation, agriculture, energy, government, and other industries. Launched in March 2018, the site recently surpassed $500 million in gross transaction value (GTV). “Marketplace-E has grown so much since its launch in early 2018 — in sophistication and popularity,” said Karl Werner, interim co-CEO and president of international, Ritchie Bros. “When we only offered unreserved auctions, we limited the number of companies and individuals we could help. Selling unreserved is not for everyone. Now that we have live auctions, IronPlanet weekly featured auctions, and Marketplace-E, we have a solution for every customer need. “As a result of the site’s growing popularity amongst sellers and buyers, we’ve seen strong double-digit growth in the average selling price of an item and total GTV through Marketplace-E has grown 52 percent over the past six months. Interestingly, with Marketplace-E we have also introduced a new type of buyer to our brand; a buyer who is uninterested in purchasing from auctions, but willing to pay a premium to get top of the line used assets right away. They don’t want to wait for the next auction — they need it now and can get it from Marketplace-E.” More than 3,200 companies from 45 countries have sold assets on Marketplace-E since its launch. The top five equipment categories on Marketplace-E include truck tractors, excavators, dozers, cranes, and pipelayers. Top selling manufacturers include Caterpillar, John Deere, Komatsu, Freightliner, and International. How Marketplace-E Works — Three Selling Options: • Make Offer: list equipment online and let potential buyers submit offers, then negotiate with potential buyers to reach an agreement • Buy Now: list equipment online at a fixed, buy-it-now price; like a basic ecommerce transaction. Once the item is purchased, the listing is closed • Reserve price: an online listing with a minimum/reserve price. The item will not sell until the reserve is met. The seller minimum is protected, but the potential highest selling price is not capped The selling process also is aided by an inside sales team dedicated to facilitating offline negotiations between interested buyers and sellers. All asset listings are syndicated on both rbauction.com and IronPlanet.com platforms to increase visibility to the company’s huge global buying audience.

Using No Tax Dollars, BNA Vision Targets 2023 Finish BNA from page 14
A distinctive, sweeping roof canopy will let in natural light and provide compelling views of the airfield. The refurbished lobby will include a new central marketplace beyond the security checkpoint. The International Arrivals Facility is expected to open in late 2023. Phase 1 involved covering a 50-foot airfield depression with 55,800 dump truck loads of fill and paving the resulting surface area to create a construction laydown area, which will accommodate the building of the International Arrivals Facility. Phase 1 started in June 2018 and was completed in September 2019.

Phase 2 Phase 2 will commence in 2023 with the paving of 13 acres of space adjacent to the terminal for use as aircraft maneuvering and parking. The Terminal Apron and Taxilane Expansion Project is expected to be completed in the fall of the same year, concurrent with the opening of the International Arrivals Facility. With more people flying in and out of Nashville, traffic has increased significantly. To improve access to the airport and better circulation around it, the Donelson Pike Relocation and Terminal Access Roadway Improvements projects, a Tennessee Department of Transportation responsibility, will straighten Donelson Pike from the taxiway bridges to Interstate 40, enhance airport access to and from I-40 East and West and improve safety. The Terminal Access Roadway
Improvements are a BNA project designed to expand BNA’s terminal loop roadway from 1.3 miles to 1.9 miles, increase roadway travel lanes to add capacity and improve traffic flow by enhancing access to I-40. Currently under design, construction is expected to start in Spring 2021 with Fall 2023 targeted for completion. It will be conducted concurrently with the realignment of Donelson Pike. Record-Breaking Projects According to WTVF-5 in Nashville, not only is business as usual at the Nashville International Airport, but records are being broken during construction. “There is a lot going on … actually $1.2 billion worth of work going on,” Shannon Sumrall, a spokesperson for Nashville International Airport, told the news station, adding that they are working to keep TSA wait times down and other parts of the airport experience the best they can during construction by having all of the airport entities work together. “We work closely with all of our business partners, our airlines, TSA, to make sure that we’re properly staffed so we can handle whatever the numbers may be,” Sumrall said. The first phase of BNA Vision is expected to be completed in 2023. Airport officials report that it is currently on-track, with numerous projects currently underway. No local tax dollars will be used in funding the project. BNA reports that funding will come from bonds, federal and state aviation grants, Passenger Facility Charges and other airport funds. CEG

regardless of construction job market conditions,” Schaller said. “We encourage owners to commit on projects as early as possible so we can plan staffing well in advance. As selfperform union contractors, Rudolph Libbe Inc. and GEM Inc. have the advantage of a large pool of local trade labor, which helps us through periods like this. We pride ourselves on being a preferred employer with a strong commitment to providing safe working conditions, current equipment, technology and training.” “We have a very talented and committed labor force, and we use them to the fullest extent,” said Ron Donnal, vice president, business development, GEM Inc. “Having the best local field supervision is a key to the success of our projects.” Rudolph Libbe and GEM have apprenticeship programs for all the trades they hire — carpentry, masonry, cement finishing, operators, boilermakers, ironworkers, electricians, pipefitters, plumbers and HVAC technicians. “We are very active in high school career
training programs in our area and we’ve hired many graduates,” Schaller said. “We participate in college recruitment programs and community-based job fairs.” The companies also are very involved with the AGC and The Association of Union Constructors. “These two organizations are working diligently to address the workforce shortage,” said Donnal. Working early on with owners also pays off in regard to material cost increases. According to Schaller, this provides the ability to incorporate value-engineering so the companies can make sure the most effective materials are used. That allows for lockdown pricing so they can minimize unexpected cost hikes. These sorts of proactive measures give owners the confidence to proceed with their projects. “Owners are becoming increasingly interested in project delivery methods that let us more effectively manage projects, such as design-build, construction management and hybrids,” Schaller said. “That’s where the savings are.” CEG

Rubblization Gives New Life to Dying Roads Nationwide By Chuck MacDonald CEG CORRESPONDENT
Industry outsiders might think that a man breaking up a concrete pavement with a sledgehammer is destroying public property; however, if industry insiders were to see this act or a machine rhythmically crashing huge hammers onto a roadway, they would instantly recognize this process as rubblization. Departments of Transportation across the country are seeing that rubblization is a key tactic for bringing new life to aging concrete pavements. Instead of facing the expense of breaking up old concrete roads and hauling materials away, DOTs and contractors alike are finding it much more economical to break the roads into smaller pieces, usually 2 to 6 in. in size. These fragments create an interlocked and flexible base material for paving over. Rubblizing breaks the bonds between any reinforcing steel and the concrete, eliminating slab movement and decreasing the chance of future reflective cracking. Contractors place an asphalt layer on top of this base, creating a new road with years of service for the driving public.
State-Approved Process The West Virginia Department of Highways (WVDOH) had experimented with rubblization to some success in the past, before deciding to employ the process extensively in 2018-2019, once state officials passed bonds to improve its deteriorating roads. WVDOH leaders believed that rubblization would be a cost-effective means of bringing the state’s roads to life again promptly while showing voters they were getting value for their tax money. During that construction season, West Virginia awarded 12 projects on the interstate system totaling 60
Antigo Construction’s multi-head breakers were used in virtually all of the concrete breaking activities on the WVDOH projects.

mi. of highway. The 12 contractors selected were free to use any rehabilitation method they liked. All of them chose rubblization. Travis Walbeck, of the National Center for Asphalt Technology, was with the WVDOH at the time and saw that the contractors using rubblization were making an economical choice, but also one with long-term performance in mind. “Rubblization style projects help address pavements that are a maintenance burden,” Walbeck see RUBBLIZATION page 30
The West Virginia Department of Highways experimented with rubblization on several past projects before employing the process full-time during the 2018-2019 construction season.

explained. “These reconstruction projects, coupled with preserving good pavements, help us make progress in pavement conditions statewide.” WVDOH documented the performance of the rubblized road sections and have found them to be superior to new construction. Engineers believe this is related to the firm foundation that the rubblized material provides for roadbuilding activities. Antigo Construction’s multi-head breakers were used in virtually all of the concrete breaking activities on the WVDOH projects. Nevada Relies on Rubblization In 2015, the Nevada Department of Transportation spent $30 million on two rubblization projects along Interstate 80 in Elko, Humboldt and Lander counties. Contractors rebuilt a total of 17 mi. of pavement for the two projects. The success of the jobs led to three more within the last two years, all on I-80 in the northern part of the state. “Rubblization is a cost-effective method of highway maintenance in the state,” said Darin Tedford, chief materials engineer for NDOT. “When concrete pavements are at the end of their life, it is much cheaper to rubblize than to dig out the concrete and haul it off to a landfill somewhere.” Tedford notes that NDOT research backs the effectiveness of the process as well. “Not only does it save money, but the rubblized road creates a strong base layer,” he said. “The contractor compacts the base then paves with 6 to 7 inches of asphalt on top.” Contractors Q&D Construction and
The asphalt was produced at Kankakee Valley Construction’s plants just 10 mi. away from the project site, ensuring quick delivery.
On I-55 just south of Chicago, officials report that rubblization will cost between 53 to 72 percent less than the traditional road building process of remove and replace.

Road & Highway Builders did the paving for the NDOT projects in 20182019. Both companies are headquartered in Sparks, Nev., and had to set up mobile asphalt plants at the aggregate sites to access the somewhat remote paving zones on I-80. The three most recent projects cost a total of $37.5 million for the encompassing 17 mi. Contractors on the projects had advantages, but at the same time faced challenges too. “In that part of the state, we don’t have many bridges or utilities buried underneath the highway, so that creates steadier working conditions,” Tedford said. “But they usually deal with weather there that can become severe quickly and create a much shorter paving season than in the southern part of the state.” I-55 South of Chicago Kankakee Valley Construction from Kankakee, Ill., handled the rubblization job on Interstate 55, one of the vital interstates headed out of Chicago. This 6-mi.-long project, in the second of three years under construction, is located near Pontiac. The rubblization
process will cost between 53 to 72 percent less than the traditional road building process of remove and replace. The job will require nearly 100,000 tons of asphalt. “The existing concrete pavement had severe cracking,” said Dave Riordan, vice president of construction, Kankakee Valley Construction. “It had been patched and overlaid previously and was unrepairable.” The rubblization process was well suited for this older piece of highway. “The concrete broke easily into smaller pieces as it should,” Riordan said. “Paving on top of the shattered pieces was softer than I expected at first, but later lifts of asphalt proved easy enough resulting in smooth pavement.” The asphalt was produced at Kankakee plants just 10 mi. away, ensuring a quick delivery so that there was no delay required while producing an 11-in. thick road over the rubblized concrete. Antigo Construction performed the rubblization with a multi-head pavement breaker on all three projects. CEG

Caterpillar Introduces the New RM400 Rotary Mixer With Increased Mobility Caterpillar Inc.’s RM400 rotary mixer replaces the RM300 rotary mixer.
DOBBS EQUIPMENT (844) 4 MY DOBBS www.dobbsequipment.com Riverview, FL (Main Office) (813) 620-1000 Fort Myers, FL (239) 334-3627 Lutz, FL (813) 995-0841 Miami, FL (305) 592-5740 Orlando, FL (407) 299-1212 Pompano Beach Parts, FL (954) 977-9541 Riverview Parts, FL (813) 621-4902
Caterpillar Inc.’s RM400 rotary mixer replaces the RM300 rotary mixer and offers many new features and enhancements including 19 percent more power, an enhanced operating environment and better maneuverability. These features help contractors achieve the demanding job specifications in both full-depth reclamation and soil stabilization applications. The machine delivers an 8 ft. (2.4 m) cutting width and weighs in at 51,809 lb. (23,500 kg). Efficient Power, Increased Mobility The Cat C9.3 engine provides 417 hp (311 kW) of power and meets EPA Tier IV Final and EU Stage V emission standards. Standard all-wheel drive utilizes four independent drive pumps for maximum torque while providing excellent traction and greater speed for moving around the job site. An operating length of 31.4 ft. (9.56 m) is 17.3 in. (44 cm) shorter than its predecessor, the RM300. The shorter length improves maneuverability in commercial zones, parking lots and residential areas, while also enhancing visibility. Innovative Operating Environment A full left to right sliding cab enhances side-to-side viewing to the tire edges and rotor cut lines for improved operator efficiency and increased production. Standard front and rear facing cameras viewed through a display in the cab provide good visibility, while optional side mounted cameras provide good sight lines along the machine for enhanced safety. Additionally, optional cameras can be mounted in front and behind the rotor chamber. The front camera assists the operator when cutting close to obstacles such as manholes and curbs, while the rear camera provides a good view of the discharge material. Viewing these cameras from the operator’s station requires an additional touch screen display. Hand-wheel steering offers simple control and good forward viewing, while a joystick controls the rear wheels when utilizing select modes for more precise control. A tablet sized LCD display keeps the operator informed of machine functions, including the front and rear door opening of the rotor chamber.
Superior Mix Quality Three different rotor speeds help deliver the desired material gradation. An electronic controller keeps the rotor at the proper depth and the machine at a consistent speed to ensure optimal blending performance. The RM400 can be equipped with a water spray system in conjunction with an emulsion system to provide increased versatility and time savings when additives are needed. Four rotor options are available for a variety of applications. A universal rotor can be used for either full depth reclamation or soil stabilization and is equipped with 200 pointattack carbide-tipped tools. A soil rotor is used for a variety of mixing and stabilization applications and blends additives with semi-cohesive or granular materials and is equipped with 238 point-attack, carbide-tipped tools. The combination rotor is designed primarily for use in soil stabilization applications in cohesive materials, but also works well for light asphalt reclamation. The combination rotor is equipped with 114 point-attack, carbide-tipped tools. A spade rotor also is available. The highly productive spade rotor is utilized solely for mixing soils and is fitted with 58 bolt-on spade tools. Simplified Service Daily service points are grouped and easily accessible. The engine hood easily tilts forward with the flip of a switch for easy access to the cooling system and engine. The cooling system utilizes a variable speed fan that can be set to periodically reverse direction for short intervals during operation. This unique design helps the system shed accumulated dust and keep the system cleaner for maximum efficiency and extended service intervals. An optional onboard air compressor combined with the tilting rotor hood and large, rear discharge door makes changing rotor bits quick and easy. The RM400 Rotary Mixer will be available second quarter 2020. For more information, visit www.cat.com.

Bomag 10-ft. (3.0 m) pavers now include significant upgrades to the operator’s platform, which improve visibility and the operator experience. New dual swing-out operator stations feature Bomag’s sideview innovation in which the seat and console swivel outward at four differing angles to deliver unobstructed views to the sides of the paver and the screed end gates. An open-grate design on the platform floor affords the operator direct-line sight of the screed spreading augers. The new large, 7-in. (17.8-cm) multifunction color screen display at each console provides easy viewing of critical operating functions, gauges and parameters plus provides fault messages for quick troubleshooting at the job site to improve serviceability. New blade-type toggle switches, each controlling a single paver function, improve switch reliability. The pavers’ new sound-insulated composite engine hood delivers quieter paving to improve operator comfort. The hood’s sloped design provides a clear view into the hopper from the operator’s seat. Under the hood, a 260-hp (194-kW) Tier IV Final engine on the wheeled machine and a 225hp (168 kW) on the tracked machine delivers ample power for full-width paving, while having enough power in reserve to operate the screed’s generator and lights for nighttime paving application. On typical applications, fuel consumption for the new highway class pavers averages less than 4 gal/hr (15.1 l/hr). Bomag has simplified its 10-ft. class paver offering, reducing the number of models from four to two. Legacy CR 452 and CR 552 wheeled pavers are now replaced by the CR 1030 W paver, while the rubber track CR 462 and CR 562 pavers now bear the CR 1030 T identification. These adaptable
pavers tackle a range of applications from interstate and state highway to airport, heavy industrial and large commercial projects. Cedarapids DNA Retained While closely identifying with Bomag family of pavers, the new CR 1030 Series retains many of the legacy Cedarapids designs that have helped contractors meet mat smoothness specifications and productivity goals for decades. Frame Raise and Three-Point Suspension mitigate segregation issues, improve mat quality and provide superior traction. The Smartrac system found on CR 1030 T pavers automatically maintains proper track tension at all times to significantly increase track life and decrease downtime, according to the manufacturer. Equipped with the tried-and-true Stretch 20 hydraulically extendible screed, these machines deliver infinitely variable paving widths from 10 to 20 ft. (3 to 6.1 m) and a maximum paving width of 30-ft. (9.1-m) with extensions. Electric-over-hydraulic controls provide fast, simple and accurate screed adjustments, while the Stretch 20’s screed assist system eliminates screed setting to improve mat smoothness. New hose routing and wire harness designs improve screed system reliability in the field. Bomag CR 1030 W Series pavers have a standard 16.7-ton (15.1-t) hopper capacity and the robust hopper design delivers up to a 27-ton (24.5-t) capacity when equipped with an insert. The CR 1030 T Series pavers have a standard 14-ton (12.7 t) hopper capacity up to a 22-ton (20-t) capacity when equipped with an insert. These new pavers come standard with a three-year complimentary subscription to Bomag Telematic. For more information, visit www.bomag.com.

RL Causey Keeps It in Perspective By Putting People First By Kristin Stires SPECIAL TO CEG
Robby Causey is a laid-back, simple guy. He’s lived in Murrells Inlet, S.C., his whole life. His mom lives right down the road from him. He doesn’t travel much and prefers to stay around the house. If he needs to get away from it for a while, he’ll spend time at Garden City Beach — less than 30 minutes away. Even though he’s an even-keeled guy, Robby has worked tirelessly over the years to build his construction company, RL Causey, by hiring the right crew and taking care of them. “When I was in middle school and high school, I worked for my dad,” Robby said. “He was in the lawn business and then we ventured out into the landscaping business. I went out on my own in ’95, and I grew it from the landscaping business to where we’re at now. It’s been a pretty wild ride, and I’ve enjoyed it.” Behind the Scenes Today, RL Causey employs nearly 100 people. Despite its growth, the company has kept the feel of a tight-knit, family business. Robby’s “better half,” Annette, works in the office and helps run day-to-day business operations. In fact, Robby and Annette grew up together and went to the same high school. “Without Annette, I probably wouldn’t be here,” he said. “She’s very important to me. I’ve known Annette all my life, and it just clicked and works.” Randy Pettit is another team member keeping RL Causey on track. “Randy is our head estimator,” Robby said. “He helps run the office and has been with me since the beginning. He is very well respected throughout the sitework industry.” Perhaps the friendliest employee in the office is Moose — Robby and Annette’s 115-pound, 9-year-old chocolate lab. Annette takes Moose to work every day. “If he’s in trouble, it’s her dog; if he’s not in trouble, it’s my dog,” Robby laughed. “Doesn’t matter what kind of day I’ve had, when I come home, he’s wagging his tail and he’s happy. So, it’s just us three — Annette, Moose and me — and that’s what I like.” Playing in the Dirt While Annette, Randy and the team run the office (with Moose’s supervision, of course), Robby’s out in the field with his guys. “I’m not much of an office guy,” he said. “I talk with them probably five or six times a day, but I’m just not an office person. Never have been and I probably never will be. I’m an outside guy. If I don’t get a phone

call before 6:30 a.m., it’s normally going to be a pretty good day. If it rains that night, well, then I know it’s going to be a little bit of a rocky start because if you don’t have plan B, C and D in effect, you’ve got problems.” If you’re on an RL Causey job site, you can almost guarantee you’ll spot a Hitachi excavator working. Robby has run an allHitachi excavator fleet since the beginning. “We play in the dirt,” he said. “We do clearing, earthmoving, utilities — water, sewer, pipe — everything is pretty much done in-house, except for curb and asphalt. When I first decided to start clearing lots, I tried buying Hitachi. Mr. Roddy Stanton with L.B. Smith was my Hitachi dealer, and he got me hooked up with the guys at Hitachi. That’s when I bought my first one, an EX200. I didn’t forget that because he helped me greatly in getting it, and I’ve just kept right on with them.” Robby has worked with his current sales rep, Bob Simmons (formerly with L.B. Smith, now Flint Equipment), for more than 20 years. They play golf every Sunday and give each other a hard time. “Bob has been great to work with over the years; just don’t listen to anything he says about what happens on the golf course,” Robby smiled. RL Causey’s Hitachi fleet consists of roughly 50 excavators ranging from a ZX35U-5 compact up to the ZX470LC-6.
They still have an EX200 working on jobs. “Hitachis are smooth and very reliable,” Robby said. “We’ve still got some of the older machines and we use a lot of them for clearing, so that’s why you see a little bit of bruises on them. They just keep right on running, though. When you’ve got an engine that’s got 15,000 hours on it and you’ve never been into it, that’s good in my book.” Putting People First While Robby enjoys his work, he’s thankful for his crew and makes them his first priority. “I’ve got a great group of guys that work for me and have been with me for a long time. That means a lot to me,” he said. “I’m a people person and I try to take care of my guys. It’s not about me, it’s about them. One that stands out is Joe Turbeville, who has been with me since the landscaping days, and has operated Hitachis for the company for all these years.” When it comes to equipment, Robby keeps his guys happy with Hitachi. “My guys do not like to share; they keep their own equipment and I’ve accepted that,” he said. “They take care of it and if something goes wrong, they know what happened and how it happened.” Bill Barber, operator for RL Causey, currently runs a shiny, new ZX350LC-6 and is a fan of it.
“This machine is sweet! It’s as smooth as silk, really strong and stable, and has great power and speed,” Barber said. “We’ve got a long stick on it since we have to dig down about 18 feet. It cuts through all the material like butter. The cab is so comfortable; it’s like sitting at home watching a Green Bay Packers game.” Charles Johnson, another long-time operator for RL Causey, runs a ZX470LC-5 on a D.R. Horton residential development that will include 1,000 home sites. RL Causey is moving about 500,000 tons of dirt for the project, and Charles said he has the right machine for the work. “Hitachis are smooth and move a lot of dirt — fast! Can’t ask for anything better than that,” Johnson said. At the end of the day, Robby said it’s his family and his guys that continue to inspire him to keep moving forward. “I enjoy seeing the guys that work for me prosper,” he said. “Whenever one comes to me and says, ‘I just bought a new house,’ it makes me feel great. Or ‘I’ve got a new vehicle thanks to you.’ I like that. To me, it’s not about the money. I just like doing things for people, and it’s just the way I was raised. I grew up with a loving family — not wealthy, not rich — just a great family. I’ve been well blessed. It’s all good.” This article first appeared in Hitachi’s BREAKOUT magazine, Fall 2019 issue.

MINI & COMPACT Equipment
buyers’ guide
By Giles Lambertson
[f
CEG CORRESPONDENT
OR 60 YEARS,
]
Construction Equipment Guide has been a trusted source of information about new and used pieces of equipment, construction industry issues, and public and private sector projects. Industry pros depend upon the publication to stay abreast of equipment news. The Buyers Guide reflects that marketplace experience. This Buyers Guide is about the “mini” and compact equipment that has proliferated over the last couple of decades. In the 1950s, the construction industry began employing small machines instead of human backs or dragging out large machines for relatively small tasks. It was the result of the work of inventive blacksmiths like Ed Malzahn, an Oklahoman who early in that decade built a ditch-digging device he called a Ditch Witch. About the same time, a couple of Minnesota blacksmiths crafted what they called the Keller selfpropelled loader. The small threewheeled machine pretty quickly evolved into what they rebranded a Bobcat skid steer. These significant inventions spurred miniaturization of serious construction machinery. Backhoes — themselves a downsizing of massive crane diggers — were supplanted on some job sites by mini-excavators. In time, earth-moving tasks like digging, auguring, leveling and loading were given over to compact wheel loaders and skid steer and track loaders configured with specialized attachments. Not satisfied with such resizing, manufacturers further shrank the machines by creating “mini” versions of the tools in walk-behind or stand-on models. Today, do-it-yourself property owners, landscapers, farm operators, contractors, municipal and factory management rely upon small motorized equipment to do jobs they used to hire others to do or accomplished less efficiently using larger machinery. It is a true revolution. If you are thinking about buying or renting a mini or compact machine, you are a part of it.
If You’re Buying Buyers of compact and mini equipment certainly are not all alike. They are homeowners doing weekend work, or a small concrete contractor, or a multinational company with fleets of equipment. In each case, a buyer shops for the machine that will most efficiently complete a job. Following are some considerations in evaluating the equipment: 1) Machine size and configuration Having decided to go small, the decision-making doesn’t end there. If the task is lifting, the question is, how high? If trenching is the job, how wide or deep or long will the ditch be? And if you’ll be trenching all day,

MINI & COMPACT EQUIPMENT
buyers’ guide
do you want to sit or stand? Do you need a trencher or, perhaps, an excavator? Do tight quarters require an articulated machine? If the ground is soft, a track loader might be the answer. Pushing snow? A wheeled skid steer does it better. A variety of jobs in mind? Think attachments. Decisions, decisions…. 2) Manufacturer support and warranty Manufacturing of compact machinery does not require the same capitalization as building machines as big as a house. Consequently, smaller companies can do it. Buyers should think about how much support a manufacturer or dealer can provide in the event a small or mini machine suffers catastrophic failure. A “good deal” can be a bad deal if an engine blows, an undercarriage repeatedly fails, a hydraulic system chronically leaks. Safeguards against such misfortune are a supportive dealer and an ironclad manufacturer warranty. 3) New or used What’s the new machine going to cost? That’s the bottom line. A used track loader will cost less than the same model bought new. What a buyer should consider is whether a machine is for production work or will be utilized in a supporting role. The latter is perfect for second-hand machinery. The rest of the story is about support. New machines come with warranties. Yet a machine from a rental fleet will have extensive maintenance records — which can be the next best thing to a warranty. Shop prudently and wisely.
If You’re Renting/Leasing Periodic or one-time tasks — think fence-building or site preparation — may warrant acquiring a piece of equipment for a weekend or a week, just long enough to compete the job. No sense owning a machine that sits idle for long periods. But productivity is the bottom line for rented equipment, too, so go to the rental lot knowing how to get the most for your money. 1) Get a little more machine than you need This is where good management shows itself. Scenario: A pipeline needs running from a water main to a new shop a half mile away. A 50-hp ride-on trencher will dig a ditch deep and wide enough to accommodate the line. Rental cost: $1,240 for a week. But wait: A 5-ton mini-excavator with a narrow bucket only costs $30 more per week. Why not get the excavator and complete some other loading and digging tasks? Why not indeed. 2) Trust, but verify the deal Independent rental companies and OEM dealerships stay in business by satisfying customers. Still, as a former president once said, “Trust, but verify.” Researching a firm or dealer is a good idea. Go online. Talk to people who have rented equipment. Ask questions. Does the firm back up its equipment? What happens if a chain breaks? Which loader brand is deemed most reliable? In the end, low rental rates aren’t everything.
Tips on Inspecting Used Compact/Mini Equipment Compactness can conceal. When mechanisms and systems are neatly fitted into small spaces, even cursory examination can be frustrating. Nevertheless, buyers should seek out telltale signs of abuse or poor maintenance. Here are some things to focus on:
constructionequipmentguide.com
1) Hydraulic systems Compact machines perform big-time tasks because of their hydraulic systems. The oil is a multiplier that gives skid steers, mini-excavators and other small machines outsize performance. So, ensuring that the hydraulic system is functioning without leaking is important. Chronic leaks are identifiable by oil residue on the frame. Operating the machine can reveal seals without integrity as well as weakness in a pump. 2) Major moving parts A trencher without a smoothly operating bar and chain is a problem. The same is true for a compact excavator that rotates haltingly on its base or a small articulated loader with a rumbling hinge joint. Components that are central to a machine’s operation must be fully functional for a piece of equipment to be of value. Lesser components — say a balky cab door or worn-out quick-attach unit — can be replaced. The major parts are something else. 3) Undercarriage When everything rides on something, the “something” must be flawlessly reliable. That is the case with track undercarriages. If a piece of equipment can’t move, it is just a piece of iron. So, tracks and their auxiliary pieces — tensioners, sprockets, suspension system (if any) — should be in generally good condition. Excessive wear of one or more components suggests overall poor maintenance. Look for a machine with a sound undercarriage. SEE GUIDE PAGE 62

The 9018F is a reduced tail-swing, 1.9 ton (1.8 t) mini-class excavator presently undergoing evaluation. It has been designed to meet or exceed North American market design specifications. The 9018F represents the smallest of the powerfully efficient, 6th generation LiuGong F-Series excavator models. Its compact dimensions and retractable undercarriage alone give its users several transportation and application benefits. The unit is available with both a closed pressurized cab, featuring heater and window defroster, as well as a canopy design. The closed cab 9018F version stands just 7 ft. 9 in. (2.3 m) tall, resulting in a lower height that all but eliminates headspace concerns while traveling through tunnels and beneath overpasses. The 9018F unit’s short stature combined with a retractable undercarriage give its operator access to the most restrictive workspaces. Its 51-in. (129 cm) outside tread to outside tread measurement retracts to just 39 in. (99 cm), allowing it to easily pass between onsite obstructions and through almost any bay door. Application Versatility Its versatility is not solely a result of its compact size. The 9018F is a powerful, robust base unit for a variety of attachments. It also supports the installation of consumer-requested aftermarket add-ons. Mike Watt, product manager, LiuGong NA Excavators, said, “Right now we’re working toward 2D control on our full-size excavators, and in the future this technology will be available to our compact excavator line. Additional technology will be made available later, pending customer review.” The upgrades may include electronic monitoring of bucket trajectory and operator assist for better efficiency of the excavator on work sites, Watt said. F-Series excavators like the 9018F also permit consumers to install most of the latest 3rd-party technologies such as offered by Trimble for gradeability. Telematics also will be
available as an aftermarket add-on. Standard 9018F features include a low-speed, hightorque, Tier IV Final, Yanmar engine rated at 18 gross hp (17 net hp). Back-filling or dozer operation no longer requires the operator to remove his or her hand from blade control to change travel speed. By simply pressing the top of the handle, an operator can now select high-rabbit or low-turtle speed travel. Better fuel consumption is achieved through a more efficient hydraulic system using 15 to 20 percent less engine power than that of its predecessor. An improved load-sensitive hydraulic system with 14.5 gpm main pump displacement utilizes a proportional control valve for better management of flow distribution for all attachments. Flow rate for the hammer-shear and hydraulic thumb is set right from the operator’s monitor. A LiuGong hydraulic thumb (“bucket grabber”) comes standard with the unit. Travel pedals and joysticks give an operator hydraulic control for machine fuctions: travel, boom, boom swing, arm, and bucket. Auxiliary hydraulic functions are controled by electrical proportional solenoids for precise control. LiuGong NA offers a 3 year / 4,000 hour end-to-end coverage warranty for its 9018F. 9018F Specifications • Operating weight (with cab): 4,189 lb. • T4F Yanmar engine: 18 hp (gross), 17 hp (net) • Max pump flow rate: 14.5 gpm • Max pressure: 3,046 psi • Standard bucket capacity: 0.06 cu. yd. • Bucket/cutting width: 19.5 in. • Bucket breakout force: 3,597 lbf • Arms stick force: 2,023 lbf • Digging depth: 7 ft. 6 in. • Swing speed: 9.5 rpm • Arm length: 3 ft. 6 in. • Max dump height: 7 ft. 9 in.

MINI & COMPACT
buyers’ guide
EQUIPMENT
GUIDE FROM PAGE 51 4) Straight and true arms Compact excavators nimbly slice, dig and load dirt on the strength of their hinged booms. Trenchers create neat narrow ditches employing rotating chains riding an extended bar. Track loaders do their versatile work with attachments at the end of their lift arms. All of these appendages are subject to stresses. Visually and in live operation determine if arms or booms are bent or cracked or otherwise significantly misaligned. That is a red flag. 5) Electrical system Unless a machine is relatively old, an electrical system is apt to be sound. Indications of an unsound system include wiring with frayed covering or exposed core wires, battery posts that are corroded, loose and fired electrical fittings, wires that dangle instead of being affixed to the frame and so on. These poorly maintained components could be an indication of an unreliable electrical system, which reduces the value of a machine.
What You Can Expect to Pay Mini and compact machinery are not cheap because they are well-made and contain modern electronics, which never are inexpensive. But the machines are wonderful labor-savers and highly productive pieces of equipment. They are worth the cost, in other words. Here are some examples of pricing: • New - Mini: A 20-hp walk-behind trencher with a 6-inch-wide cut is priced at $12,000; a 25-hp mini-track loader with a 1,000-lb operating capacity can cost $34,500. - Compact: A 74-hp compact track loader with an automatic track-tensioning system is priced at $49,000; a 91-hp skid steer with a vertical lift boom costs $80,000. • Used - Mini: A 34-inch-wide, 22-hp mini-track loader with eight hours on the engine costs $17,900; a 25-hp, wide-track utility loader with 175 hours is priced at $28,500. Compact: A 74-hp compact radial lift skid steer with 13 hours on it is priced at $33,000; a 25-hp compact excavator with 99 hours has a price tag of $40,000. • Rent / Lease An online survey indicates… - a 24-inch walk-behind trencher can cost $200-250 a day, $550-650 a week and $1,200-1,400 a month - a mini-skid steer with 500-lb. lift capacity can cost $225-275 a day, $750-800 a week and $1,700-1,800 a month - a 3,0000-lb. compact track loader can cost $600-650 a day, $1,5001,600 a week and $3,000-4,000 a month - a compact articulated wheel loader with a one-yard bucket can cost $350-400 a day, $900-1,000 a week and $2,800-3,100 a month

MINI & COMPACT EQUIPMENT
1) Sit or stand? At the nexus of mini and compact machines is a quandary: Which configuration will work best for your situation? A large stand-on trencher might be sufficient for tasks, but the sit-down operator’s platform on a compact trencher can increase productivity. What to buy? If your choice really is between a large rideon machine and a sit-down model, going with the larger machine nearly always is the better choice. It offers the prospect of more versatility and productivity, plus can mean higher resale value if you ever trade up.
2) How much versatility? Purchasers of a compact or mini machine of some kind usually have a primary job in mind. An even better mindset is to consider the bigger picture. You want the track loader to clean up job sites and perform other support work. But if you get a skid steer, which sometimes performs better in snow, you could put it to use in the off-season clearing parking lots. Similar calculations can be made about mini-excavators, wheel loaders, dumper trucks and other compact machines. What might be their secondary application? 3) How much auto is enough? Software and related technology incorporated into today’s mini and compact equipment offer precise automatic controls that eliminate human approximation. Think bucket grade and tilt controls on loaders and excavators. Depth controls. Return-to-grade controls. Hydrostatic settings. It’s revolutionary but also can be pricey. However, does your work really require grading to be within millimeters of accuracy? Can you select and shift gears manually and still do a first-class job? Don’t pay for luxury for the fun of it. 4) Dealer support Compact and mini equipment does serious work and deserves serious support systems. Sometimes it needs more support than bigger pieces of equipment because its smaller engines and lighter dimensioned tools are overstressed compared to a larger piece of equipment performing the same task. What kind of OEM engine and components warranty backs that mini-excavator? How responsive and trained is the local dealership that will maintain the machine? Buy with service and support in mind. 5) Beware of brand loyalty Loyalty to a manufacturer isn’t like loyalty to a professional athletic franchise. In the working world, there is no special camaraderie on “game days.” Dealers are happy to have you on their “team,” but the relationship is openly built on dollars and cents, not transitory sporting glory. So, shop for value. Explore a range of manufacturers. If the characteristic handling of a certain brand’s products appeals to you, for example, set aside the preference and at least try another. There is a world of good products out there.

This is a 1962 P & H S-20 Stik-Clam, the earliest known compact excavator in the U.S. market and probably 30 years ahead of its time. The stick-mounted hydraulic clamshell could dig at a wide range of angles, including to a surprising height. HCEA photo HCEA National Director Dave Geis of Seward, Neb., is the owner.

For many years, Struck Corporation has produced a line of tiny crawler tractors and loaders. This is a Magnatrack Junior.
In the 1920s and early 1930s, a surprising range of construction machinery was built upon the chassis of gasoline-powered industrial wheel tractors. This Austin Pup, a small three-wheel roller, is built around a Fordson tractor. Evan Gooch of Columbia, Tenn., is the owner. HCEA photo

At one time, Sears Roebuck sold a limited line of construction machinery, and for many years yard and garden tractors have been part of its product line. This is a 1973 Sears SS16 Twin, outfitted with an optional loader, and it’s owned by Ede Hirchak of Hawk Point, Mo.

The Byers Bearcat Junior, built in the late 1930s, was one of the smallest cable excavators built. With its swing boom, it is in a sense a forebear of today’s compact hydraulic excavators. HCEA National Director Larry Kotkowski is the operator.
Agricat offered a line of small crawler tractors, powered by Wisconsin gas engines, in the 1940s and 1950s. They could be equipped with either dozers or loaders. This example is part of a sizeable collection owned by Jeff Fildes of Grafton, Ohio.
