Road Work Wraps Up Early With Advanced Grading…14

Stimulus Transportation Investments a Bright Spot The highway investments in the stimulus law have been a bright spot for a transportation construction industry hard hit by recessioninduced cutbacks in state programs and decline in private sector work.

But continued uncertainty about passage of a multi-year surface transportation reauthorization bill is hindering chances for a sustained

economic recovery.

That was the thrust of the message delivered by Kevin Gannon, vice president of Appleton, Wis.based Northeast Asphalt Inc., at a July 27 House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee hearing on implementation of the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act (ARRA).

Gannon, a director on the American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) board, told the committee that recovery act-funded projects his company is working on have not wholly offset the 50 percent drop in private sector work in recent years.

He said, however, that ARRA projects have allowed them to hang on

to the firm’s existing workforce.

Gannon noted that as of July 16, more than 11,000 highway and bridge projects under the recovery act had moved to the construction stage and more than 3,000 were now finished, worth a total of $23 billion.

“This is $23 billion that is genersee ARTBA page 80

Birmingham’s rail tradition is celebrated in a leafy green space that construction crews have been working on since January 2009.

Long-Envisioned Railroad Park Takes Shape in Birmingham

By Cindy Riley

CEG CORRESPONDENT

Construction crews in downtown Birmingham, Ala., are near completion on the new Railroad Park, an eight-block green space that was first envisioned in the 1970s.

Located along 1st Avenue South, between 14th and 18th Streets, the 21-acre park is a joint effort between the City of Birmingham and the

Railroad Park Foundation. The park will provide space for local recreation, family events, concerts and cultural happenings while connecting Birmingham’s downtown with Southside and the busy campus of the University of Alabama at Birmingham.

A major ongoing capital campaign helped raise the money needed to construct Railroad Park, which blends history with modern-day see RAILROAD page 26

The blowout of the Deepwater Horizon oil well in April has been a slow-motion disaster for Gulf states, with the agony measured in economic uncertainty as well as in real-and-present environmental injury.

Construction contractors are among the residents of states bordering the Gulf of Mexico who are still assimilating what it all means. There is not yet general agreement whether the spill, now capped, will end up hurting the industry a little, a lot, or not at all.

In truth, the immediate impact on builders is mostly positive. That’s because manmade and natural disasters always spur clean-up activity, which nearly always means building industry job creation in the short term. After Hurricane Katrina smashed Louisiana and Mississippi in 2005, debris removal and then reconstruction of vast stretches of those states were a tremendous boon to contractors.

One of the differences between that catastrophe and this one is that most of the oil spillage is affecting Gulf waters and coastal areas. While some sand berm-building and coastal dredging work suddenly has see SPILL page 22

Linder Relocates Facility From Asheville to Arden, N.C.

By Jennifer Hetrick

CEG EDITORIAL ASSISTANT

Linder Industrial Machinery Company has relocated its Asheville, N.C., facility to Arden, N.C. Linder is the distributor for Komatsu off-road equipment in Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina and southeast Georgia. The company also represents Wirtgen milling machines; Vogele pavers; Hamm compaction products; Kleemann crushing products; Atlas Copco drill, compressor, generator and hydraulic attachments; Genesis demolition and scrap attachments; Exodus scrap handlers; Esco, Hensley and Superior brooms.

According to Chris Wilkes, regional manager of western North Carolina, the relocation was made for two major reasons. One was to have a new, modern facility that would help to decrease the company’s operating costs and the other was to create a larger area for parts inventory.

“In the current economic climate, our customer base has asked us to be more efficient and proactive to their needs,” said Wilkes.

“Linder is doing everything in its power to lower our daily operating cost so we can

“At the new Arden location the Linder employees are our biggest asset. A lot of them are native to western North Carolina and take great pride in making sure their customers are being taken care of.”

offer our customers world-class products and service at competitive prices. The new Arden facility allows Linder to receive nextday parts from several parts depots that support the manufacturers we represent. There are also two larger full-service facilities located less than 90 miles from Arden if we need additional support. One location is in Charlotte, N.C., and the other is in Greer, S.C.” In addition to Wilkes, the new location is staffed by Mike Hemphill, sales representative; James Edgerton, product customer support representative; Ted Davis and Robert “Curly” Gregg, service technicians; Joe Fry,

parts counterman; and Jerry Skiff, regional service manager.

“At the new Arden location the Linder employees are our biggest asset. Most of them have been with Linder for many years.

A lot of them are native to western North Carolina and take great pride in making sure their customers are being taken care of,” commented Wilkes.

Skiff summed up his department’s goals, “From the service side, we will continue to support the Asheville area with our two fulltime resident field technicians, Ted Davis and Robert Gregg, along with our very capable product support rep James Edgerton. If

the need arises we can pull qualified people in from Greer and Charlotte. We have even pulled our techs from as far away as Columbia, Greensboro and Raleigh when the situation has warranted the need.

“We will work on all makes and all models, not just the main line equipment that Linder carries. If a machine has to come to one of our central shops for a major repair, we can even assist with transportation costs.

We want to be a one-source shopping center.

If a customer has an issue, we want them to be thinking ‘Call Linder, they always give excellent service.’ Our goal is to take care of the customer, treat the customer the way we would want to be treated and never ask the customer to pay more than what is a fair invoice for our services.”

The new facility is located at 1 Business Park Circle, Arden, N.C. It is centrally located in the Asheville area, with convenient access to I-26 and I-40 and surrounding areas.

The use of advanced fine-grading machine-control technology allowed the use of motorgraders to get into tight spaces alongside existing pavement without the need for trimmers as well.

Patrick Ward, owner of Big Country Surveying, maintained a spreadsheet containing topographical site data at numerous points to verify for the Georgia Department of Transportation that grading was within tolerance.

Advanced Grading Helps Crews Wrap Up Road Work Early

By Don Talend SPECIAL TO CEG

Significant reconstruction of a major highway interchange near Augusta, Ga., recently promised to impact the lives of thousands of drivers over a period of about three years — so it was in the best interest of the Georgia Department of Transportation (GaDOT) and the public for the project to be completed ahead of schedule. The grading contractor on the project knew that advanced fine-grading technology could serve as a key factor in early completion.

In April 2007, GaDOT awarded a joint venture of Scott Bridge of Opelika, Ala., and United Contractors of Great Falls, S.C., a $191.9 million contract to widen a 6.25-mi. (10 km) stretch of Interstate 20 and reconstruct the I20/I-520 interchange, including the addition of two flyover ramps and a grade-separated interchange. The construction team also would add collector-distributor lanes along eastbound and westbound I-520 and eastbound I-20.

These lanes, similar to a frontage road, are used on ramps that would otherwise merge into or split from the main lanes of the interstate highway — eliminating or displacing weaving from the main lanes, a problem to which cloverleaf interchanges are particularly susceptible.

Among the subcontractors that the general contractor hired for the construction team were Barnett Southern Corp, Washington, Ga., Team Excavating Co., Wrens, Ga., and Big Country Surveying,

Lincolnton, Ga. Barnett Southern was responsible for all storm drainage, water distribution, and sanitary sewer installation on the project, as well as some grading of side roads. Team Excavating was responsible for the bulk of the grading. Big Country Surveying provided the grading quality assurance on the project, including setting control points and ensuring that site topography was within the specified .5 in. (1.3 cm) tolerance.

The entire project was scheduled for completion in 37 months, starting in June 2007. The use of an advanced Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)-laser machine control system was critical to the team’s early completion of the highway improvements.

No Strings Attached Once Ames Barnett, owner and president of Barnett Southern, got involved with Team Excavating as vice president, he began adopting machine-control technology to a greater extent earlier in the decade.

The early systems included Topcon’s System 5, which uses sonic trackers to set the correct screed height, for paving work, as well as the robotic LPS (Local Positioning System). In late 2007, Barnett Southern made a major leap in technological capability by purchasing a Topcon Millimeter GPS+ grading system from Roper Laser Co., Inc., Marietta, Ga., and utilized it on a highway widening project in southern Georgia immediately.

In pavement grade preparation, fine grading or “blue-topping,” which has traditionally relied upon

stakes with blue tips for pinpoint accuracy, increasingly is being replaced by automated fine-grading. With automation, a grader operator uses the blade, without the aid of wooden stakes and stringlines, to finish grade.

In rough or subgrade work, GNSS technology already has made a major impact. A GNSS machine-control system uses a rugged antenna mounted to a shock-absorbing, vibration-damping pole along with a GNSS receiver box mounted in a secure location on the machine. Satellites send positioning data to another antenna/receiver combination at a stationary base station. The base station then sends a three-dimensional position and 3-D corrections via radio to the mobile or machine control receiver. Positioning data also is sent to the machine.

The stationary base and machine work together to provide real-time kinetic (RTK) position information, revealing the machine’s three-dimensional location on the site. Software compares the machine’s position to the design grade, which was determined using site plans, at a given location. The system also provides visual guidance for machine operators by displaying a site model on an in-cab color monitor, or it automatically adjusts the needed elevation and desired cross-slope of the blade as the operator guides the machine forward.

The Millimeter GPS+ system is a variation on the machine-control theme, combining GNSS and laser; this “Lazer Zone” combination provides grading control accu-

racy to within .25 in. (.6 cm).

The combination of the laser’s high vertical accuracy and the three-dimensionality of the GNSS 3D reportedly increases grading accuracy over existing 3-D GNSSenabled machine-control systems, which typically achieve roughgrading precision to within .10 ft. (.03 m).

This technology has made a major impact on highway paving in Georgia: in 2005, the Georgia DOT approved the use of similar technology and graders for grading U.S. 1/SR 4, rather than the string line-guided trimmers that had been the standard since the 1960s.

GDOT allowed grade stakes to be spaced at 200 ft. (61 m) instead of the usual 50 (15 m), and grading time was cut in half.

In addition to a GNSS base station and rover, the system uses a PZL-1 Lazer Zone transmitter and a PZS-MC machine-control sensor or PZS-1 rover sensor that gets integrated with the contractor’s GNSS receiver. The PZL-1 transmitter sends out a wall of laser light 33 ft. (10 m) tall and up to 2,000 ft.

(610 m) in diameter.

The GNSS component of the system plots the location of the machine while the laser component guides the grader to position and elevates the blade precisely.

The system calculates the vertical angle from the laser up to the sensor on the machine and gives a vertical correction to the GNSS system, allowing .25 in. accuracies.

The contractor can link up to four transmitters for a total reach of 8,000 horizontal ft. (2,438 m) and 132 vertical ft. (40 m). The PZL-1

transmitter can operate multiple machines equipped to accept its signals. Also, a PZS-1 Lazer Zone sensor can be integrated with a survey rover for grade checking.

Barnett noted that the widening project was a good initial use of the new system because the areas in which it was used were not congested. Such was not the case on the I-20/I-520 project where, normally, a trimmer would have been used for fine grading. Barnett pointed out that his Millimeter GPS+-equipped Caterpillar 140H motorgraders fit more easily in tight areas than his trimmer would have; the tight areas were created by the pave-traffic shift-grade sequencing of the project.

“With the trimmer, you have to adjust your stringline and the places where you can’t get a trimmer, you’re having to grade with a grader based off of the stringline,” he explained. “With the Millimeter [GPS+], you can grade it all — you’re just using the motorgrader all the time,” he said, adding that the grades from a trimmer using a stringline and the Millimeter GPS+-equipped motorgrader would not have matched.

Unlike with a trimmer, once a section of a new lane was graded and then paved, restaking was not necessary on the next lane over.

“We could pick up right where the Millimeter stopped instead of having to reset our stringline and go back to where we were. We knew exactly where we stopped, we knew where our grades were, and we didn’t have to worry about stakes or bluetops — we could just see INTERCHANGE page 68

Still Too Early to Evaluate Full Effect of Gulf Oil Spill SPILL from page 1

been needed, the bulk of the manpower enrolled to contain the oil has been way offshore.

The biggest economic blow so far has been to industries inextricably linked to the Gulf of Mexico waters — fishing, tourism and offshore drilling. Most operators of fishing boats and charters in Louisiana are now working for British Petroleum, containing oil or skimming oil from the water instead of throwing lines into it. State governors tried for awhile to stave off tourist cancellations by putting out brave calls for tourists to come on down.

As for oil drillers, President Obama’s moratorium on offshore drilling remains a threat to close the doors on any number of drilling support companies in Louisiana and Mississippi. A judge initially halted the ban, ruling it regulatory overkill, but the administration promptly issued a second moratorium and hopes its language passes judicial muster.

In response to the second ban, one company — Diamond Offshore — announced it was moving its drilling rig from the Gulf to waters off Egypt.

If undersea boring in the Gulf is stopped by the administration for six months, hundreds of construction and machinery contractors for the industry — many of whom never leave dry land — will face hard times.

An oil industry-sponsored report by the American Energy Alliance issued July 20 says the 6-month moratorium could cost the region more than 8,000 jobs – including construction contractors – and $2 billion in economic activity.

“The moratorium could be more costly than the oil spill itself,” said the author of the report, Louisiana State University professor Joseph R. Mason. A Moody’s Analytics report issued the same week pegs the cost of the oil spill itself at 17,000 regional jobs lost and more than a billion dollars in economic growth sacrificed.

Immediate Work Impact Is Positive For now, though, things are not so bad.

“Work actually is getting busier,” said Anirban Basu, who is CEO of Baltimorebased Sage Policy Group and economist of Associated Builders and Contractors. “In the short term, any disaster is somewhat positive as a job producer.”

Though Basu affirmed the linkage between disasters and work opportunities for construction companies, he, too, saw longterm instability in the industry as a consequence of the spill. State governments already are hard hit by the economy. They also are about to have the stimulus-funding spigot turned off. As oil spill-reduced tourism further depletes Gulf states’ revenues, state budgetary traumas will only worsen.

What Basu finds most startling is the negative reaction of Gulf coast residents to the moratorium and the general response of government to the spill. The residents’ greatest concern clearly is that jobs are at stake.

“It is fascinating, frankly, to see the level of outrage directed toward government about jobs,” Basu said.

In June, Louisiana’s unemployment rate was 7 percent, up from 6.8 percent in May, but still much lower than the U.S. rate of 9.5.

Construction employment in the state increased during the month but the jobless rate remains high.

Brian Turmail, an Associated General Contractors spokesman in Washington, reported that members are anxious about the potential impact of the floating oil on Gulf contractors. Turmail said feedback from members in the region has been inconclusive, but worrisome.

“Everyone is kind of nervous because of a public view that all the beaches are covered with oil,” Turmail said, which they are not.

“If that fear shakes out to a multiyear concern and tourism is hurt, that will have real impact.”

Any reduction in tourism will shrink government budgets and result in less money for school and infrastructure construction, he observed. “We haven’t seen the beginning of the impact, or are just seeing the beginning of it.”

But not everyone shares his view. In Baton Rouge, Ken Naquin is not at all worried about job losses. The CEO of the Louisiana chapter of Associated General Contractors is confident that few if any jobs of AGC member companies are jeopardized by the Deepwater Horizon incident.

“It’s pretty much business as usual,” Naquin said at the end of June. “The spill and the clean-up really won’t affect our highway, building and utility contractors.”

This is partly because Louisiana contractors are still living off stimulus money. The state received $433 million in American Recovery & Reinvestment Act funds.

About three-dozen stimulus-funded projects are under way or completed in the state, according to the American Road and Transportation Builders Association, and twice that many are scheduled to start soon.

Louisiana’s highway projects are specifically funded by a state fuel tax dedicated to such work, Naquin said, and doesn’t see spill-related layoffs impairing those contracts.

“We don’t anticipate any impact at all,” he said.

Impact on Some Louisiana Contractors Part of Naquin’s confidence stems from the fact that Louisiana’s AGC chapter has no members working in the oilfield industry.

Those contractors are represented by the Louisiana Oilfield Contractors Association (LOCA), which was formed 43 years ago

when some road builders, oilfield service contractors and drilling companies organized to repel attacks upon the industry by union activists.

This story is told colorfully in the organization’s published history, wherein it notes that association organizers “are a tough and independent group of self-made individuals who will not be intimidated. LOCA was created by determined men to resolve tough problems… This proud tradition of facing the toughest challenges in the industry head on and overcoming them continues at the Louisiana Oilfield Contractors Association.”

The BP oil spill may give the association a chance to add to its toughness tradition.

If an offshore moratorium sticks, the impact of it on the Gulf oilfield industry is incalculable, industry observers believe.

Dock work and levy construction, pipeline laying and right-of-way clearing, equipment supply and metal fabrication activities as well as on-land and offshore crew assignments would be cut back sharply.

A Louisiana Oilfield Contractors Association executive was contacted for this article but did not respond.

One Louisiana company already benefiting from the spill is The Shaw Group. The Baton Rouge-headquartered corporation made a name for itself as a disaster-response firm after Hurricanes Katrina and Rita when its construction division was awarded several contracts.

It succeeded rather famously in pumping some 50 billion gallons of water out of New Orleans in 17 days, almost two months quicker than expected. Construction crews also temporarily repaired an estimated 1,200 roofs in 24 hours and built 30 temporary housing facilities for refugees of the storm. It subsequently was awarded the contract to erect a two-mile-long Inner Harbor Navigation Canal Surge Barrier to protect New Orleans from future Katrinas, and that work continues.

In this disaster, the international firm was awarded a contract to construct more than 120 mi. (193.1 km) of temporary sand berms along coastal barrier islands to — it is hoped — stop the migration of oil into ecologically sensitive marsh areas. The work is being done from a fleet of scows and specialized dredging barges.

“Our roots are firmly planted in this state,” Shaw CEO J.M. Bernhard Jr. said in a formal news release about the contract.

“As with our Hurricane Katrina recovery work, Shaw has a deep personal interest in our state’s protection and recovery.”

Shaw public affairs representatives declined comment for this article.

Equipment Dealers Hold Their Breath Construction equipment dealers in the region are uncertain about how much misery

the spill eventually will wash ashore. One of the seven offices of Vermeer Midsouth Inc. is in Gulfport, Miss., and Midsouth president Dennis Vander Molen is keeping an eye on the drifting crisis.

“We are still trying to figure out what opportunities for Midsouth there are in this mess. Most of the oil is still in the water and off Louisiana where we don’t have any [sales] jurisdiction,” Vander Molen said in late June. That day, the first oil reached mainland Mississippi, coming ashore in the area of Biloxi.

The Vermeer Midsouth executive said he was aware of some funding available for cleanup work, which could include equipment rental or purchase. His dealerships carry such specialty equipment as mobile vacuum excavation systems and compact loaders, both of which might be useable in beach restoration work.

“There are some marine grants or something being handed out to the county governments, but those funds are pretty limited,” Vander Molen said. “It is not going to have much of an impact in terms of what those people can buy.”

Employment equipment to suck up the crude oil is more likely to occur in Mississippi than in Louisiana, if it happens at all, he added. “Using such equipment in Louisiana is problematic because so much of that coast is bayou and marsh land.”

Vander Molen said the business community is not panicking as the oil begins to stain the coastline. “But there definitely is some fear.”

Louisiana Machinery is a statewide Caterpillar dealer, with 21 locations. Three of its engine sales and service locations hug the coast. Among the dealership’s offerings are Caterpillar and MaK marine engines.

The dealership notes on its Web site that its engine outlets offer “experience to service the needs of the offshore petroleum industry.

Our highly trained field service technicians with offshore experience and passports enable our customers to receive specialized marine engine services whenever necessary and wherever they work, worldwide.”

The impact of the spill on Louisiana Machinery was still being evaluated as July began. On the one hand, the spill obviously threatens oil-drilling work off Louisiana’s shore.

On the other hand, it has augmented the fleet of motorized craft in the Gulf trying to corral the oil. The result is kind of a wash for some equipment suppliers.

“We aren’t feeling anything yet,” said Sarah Paola, marketing manager.

The mostly unstated hope of construction companies and suppliers across the region is that the feeling continues. CEG

conveniences. The project was designed to revitalize neglected property and also stimulate cultural, economic and social activity.

Earthwork started in January 2009 followed by the installation of storm lines later that spring. Actual park construction did not begin until October 2009.

At Mother Nature’s and History’s Mercy “We have probably had 140 workers onsite at various times; however, I doubt we ever had any more than 80 or so together at any given time,” explained John Soule, estimator of the general contractor on the project, Brasfield & Gorrie LLC. “We had to work many weekends during the winter due to rain delays. We are now starting work at 6 a.m., due to the extreme heat.”

Weather, in fact, has had a major impact on construction, according to Soule.

“I believe we have had somewhere between 65 and 70 rain days due to the wet weather this past winter. The summer heat also has slowed productivity,” he stated.

As for some of the biggest challenges of the project, Soule pointed to the fact that the property has two major utilities running through it.

“Alabama Power Company has two 115,000 volt transmission lines that run the full length of the park right down the middle and Birmingham Water Works Board has an old 30-in. water line that runs through the site perpendicular to the power line. Both provided unique challenges. We were not able to cross the water line with any trucks or equipment and the power line had numerous items installed all around it that required excavation. Both utilities remained in operation the entire time.

“Also, the site previously had a steel mill and foundry on it which resulted in a great deal of foundry sand throughout the site,” Soule continued. “This material was not suitable for use under any structures and had to be over-excavated and buried in other areas of the park. There were also numerous old foundations, footing and underground pipes that were found.”

Early on, workers began excavating century-old cobblestone at the site to prepare for construction. The stones are being reused as pavers at the park. Equipment used during the site work phase included several off-road dump trucks used for hauling, as well as two Komatsu PC300’s. Typical site work equipment such as bulldozers, skid steers and mini excavators have been used throughout the entire project for grading, material hauling

and excavation.

“We moved around 50,000 yards of dirt during the site work phase in creating the amphitheater and berm along the north property line,” Soule explained. “There are close to 200,000 individual grass plugs that have been planted in the native grass areas.

“The most rewarding part of this project has been taking an old, dilapidated piece of property and turning it into an attractive, safe and family-friendly park for the city that also will have a long-term positive economic impact in the area for other retail, office and residential developments,” Soule added.

Working the Land John Lawrence, project manager, Vision Landscapes Inc., said the scope of work consisted of drainage, topsoil installation, structural soil installation, site amenities installation, steel edging, root barrier and erosion fabric, irrigation and plant materials, sub-grade issues and minor erosion-control work.

“January was a very difficult time in the project because of the every other day rains which slowed every contractor on the site.

May was also difficult because our irrigation well went dry and sink holes developed in the south lake. This was a challenge because all of our water came from the lake which was fed by the well. We had to devise a plan to keep plant material already installed alive without using the pump station and still keep progress moving on-site.

The construction manager helped us with the water issues by tapping into the city water main and running a PVC line above ground back to the pond. We later found out there was enough pressure in the line to still run irrigation once both lakes were dry. We delayed installation of sod and focused on different areas around the site that did not require water or small amounts until the sink holes were repaired.”

Vision Landscapes crews used backhoes and dump trucks to load and haul soil materials, while a mini excavator installed drainage, structural soil and root barrier. The structural soil is a specially formulated mix of gravels, clays and a wetting agent for trees, and is used in areas requiring load bearing weight and compaction but which still can offer sustainable root growth.

Workers also relied on two Bobcat T-300s and a D-5 dozer for working the grades and topsoil. After topsoil was installed, several different types of erosion fabric were installed depending on elevation changes on the slope. see RAILROAD page 85

Shoreline Project Going Well, But Challenges Make It…

By Carl Thiemann SPECIAL TO CEG

Crews on a $10 million, 6 mi.

(9.7 km) Ranger Construction job were spending a lot of time at the beach earlier this year, but they weren’t surfing the waves or lounging in the sun.

Instead, they were navigating around high tides, dealing with tight material specs and observing strict environmental protocols as they hauled in and spread 317,000 cu. yds. (242,364 cu m) of sand — more than 17,600 truckloads — to rebuild the dune and re-nourish the beach along a stretch of the Atlantic in Indian River County, Fla. An additional 326,000 cu. yds.

(249,245 cu m) of sand is scheduled to be placed during the contract’s second phase near the end of the year, farther north within the boundaries of the Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge.

Shoring Up Nature The new sand is expected to withstand erosion for six or more years, protecting beachfront prop-

erties and the vital tax base they represent, while preserving one of the western hemisphere’s most active sea turtle nesting areas.

Work has been temporarily halted to accommodate the summer nesting season, when loggerheads, leatherbacks and green turtles clamber up the beach to dig nests and lay their eggs before returning to the sea, followed later by their hatchlings. Because the species are either threatened or endangered, restoring the beach is a lifeline for their survival.

Local Stimulus Effect The project also is spreading around more than just sand. Beach re-nourishment typically involves offshore dredging, with the recovered sand pumped back onto the beach, which an out-of-state contractor did recently in other sections.

This time, county officials wanted to shore up the local economy while replacing the ravaged beachfront, so they accepted Ranger’s proposal to haul sand from an upland pit. Spreading the economsee BEACH page 30

ic boost further, Ranger agreed not to use its own substantial fleet, but to contract with area trucking and equipment rental firms.

Strict Sand Specs Because of the huge amount of upland sand involved, the contract called for very strict size and content specifications. The material had to be processed to filter out fine particles that would blow or wash away, as well as larger shell rock or gravel pieces that would make it too coarse. After all, the new sand had to double as a marine maternity ward.

The focus on quality paid off. Even before nesting season began May 1, early arriving turtles gave the restored section “two flippers up,” digging nests and laying eggs under the cover of night. In the mornings, the new nests were roped off and work continued safely around them.

Getting enough high-quality sand to keep up with production was difficult, so an extension of seven days was received for phase one completion.

There were also other challenges, because the earthwork was more involved than most roadway or site development jobs. Each day more than 200 truckloads of sand were dumped at a crossover, loaded by excavator onto off-road trucks, hauled down the beach, dumped per the engineering plans, then spread by dozers up to and into the surf,

building up the shoreline and increasing the width of the beach.

Tidal Forces at Work As expected, working next to the ocean affected production. High tides made the eroded beachfront even narrower, limiting access for haul trucks bringing in sand. Once it was placed, the material was subject to shifting, especially during rough overnight seas, requiring some rework the next day to get it back to template.

Rebuilding the dune was another meticulous process. It involved placing and shaping a sand berm cresting more than 20-ft. (6.1 m) high and stretching for miles. The contract also called for planting vegetation on the restored dune — almost 300,000 sea grass and sea oat plants — to help protect it from high winds and storm surges.

There were strict environmental regulations to comply with as well, and every so often a bogged down haul truck needed a dozer to rumble over and pull it out.

Despite the job’s difficulties, county officials and area property owners were pleased with results on phase one. After turtle season, workers will head back to the beach once again — minus their surfboards or lounge chairs — to haul in and place several more miles of sand for phase two.

Paving

SECTION Caterpillar Adds AP500E Asphalt Paver to Machine Line Caterpillar Inc. has added the AP500E asphalt paver to the paving products machine family.

The compact, lighter weight design allows contractors to haul the paver along with other necessary job site equipment, maximizing machine transport while minimizing costs. The AP500E, when equipped with the AS2252C screed, has an operating weight of 33,715 lb. (15,290 kg) and when equipped with the AS3251C screed has an operating weight of 34,220 lb. (15,520 kg).

The AP500E features a Cat C4.4 engine with ACERT Technology that is U.S. EPA Tier III emissions compliant, wheel undercarriage, dual operating stations with Advisor display, tilting consoles, high capacity cooling system, beltdriven generator, and unique material handling system with independent conveyor and auger controls.

The Cat C4.4 engine is a 4cylinder, turbocharged diesel engine that provides 142 hp (106 kW) of power. A deck-mounted cooling system provides cool intake air in order to maximize fuel efficiency and minimize emissions. The exhaust air exits toward the hopper providing a cool engine compartment and cleaner working environment for the crew.

The dual swing-out stations, tilting consoles and low profile design of the cooling system provide good forward visibility that enables the operator to communicate effectively with the truck driver while monitoring mix in the hopper.

Extending the stations beyond the machine frame also enables good joint-matching capability and optimal rearward visibility to the auger chamber, according to the manufacturer.

An advisor monitoring system located on the left operating station provides an interactive interface to assist the operator. The system

The AP500E, when equipped with the AS2252C screed, has an operating weight of 33,715 lb. (15,290 kg) and when equipped with the AS3251C screed has an operating weight of 34,220 lb. (15,520 kg).

includes project planning calculators, start-up checklists, engine operating conditions and many other features to assist the operator.

The system also lists fault codes for machine functions, making troubleshooting quick and easy.

The non-directional radial drive tires provide a large ground contact area for good flotation, stability and tractive effort for pushing trucks and working on inclines on both hard surfaces or soft base materials.

A position sensor located in the left steering cylinder helps maintain consistent travel speeds when making turns by adjusting the drive speed of the propel motors according to the steering angle of the front wheels, leading to better mat quality and less wear on the drive system. The front wheel assist option provides power to the front bogie

wheels for added traction when pushing trucks or working on soft base, while the all-wheel drive option provides power to the front and rear bogie wheels, maximizing tractive effort.

Mobility and consistent speeds are keys to efficient paving operations. The Cat system is equipped with automatic speed control and three propel/steering modes: PAVE, TRAVEL and MANEUVER. The TRAVEL mode provides speeds of up to 10 mph (16 kmh), enabling the AP500E to be quickly repositioned around the job site. The PAVE mode enables the automatics for mix delivery, while the MANEUVER mode allows 2.5 ft. (0.75 m) inside turning radius for mobility in tight quarters.

Automated controls and welldesigned components reduce seg-

regation potential and maximize efficiency for higher mat quality.

The system utilizes four individual pumps that enable each conveyor and each auger to deliver the exact amount of mix to the screed. The left and right conveyors in addition to the left and right augers are controlled independently ensuring mix demand is met when increasing or decreasing paving widths. Ratio control dials and sensors (mechanical or sonic) signal the augers and conveyors to run faster or slower when changing paving widths, thus keeping the head of material at the set level. When paving around obstacles the system automatically makes the necessary adjustments for uniform mix delivery.

The 25 kW, belt-driven generator provides quiet power for the electric screed heat, auxiliary lights

and job site tools. The 7 kW auxiliary power panel is equipped with six, 120-volt receptacles and one, 240-volt receptacle, providing power for job site lighting and other work tools.

The AS2252C Vers-A-Mat vibratory screed features narrow front-mounted extenders. The extenders utilize 9 in. (23 cm) wide screed plates, allowing it to work close to obstacles and making it a perfect fit for commercial applications by reducing the need for handwork when changing paving widths.

The AS3251C Extend-A-Mat vibratory screed features hydraulically driven, rear-mounted extenders. Heavy-duty support tubes stabilize the extenders, providing rigidity for even material flow when paving wider widths.

Asphalt Zipper Introduces Largest Portable Reclaimer Asphalt Zipper’s 6-ft. (1.8 m) wide portable reclaimer has been engineered to harness the power and productivity of much larger, more expensive, self-powered machines into an affordable attachment, according to the manufacturer.

Powered by a 203 hp (151 kW) Cummins, (Tier III) intercooled Turbo Diesel, it produces 695 ft. lbs. of torque.

The new AZ-600B can pulverize a swath of asphalt 6 ft. (1.8 m) wide and up to 12 in. (30.5 cm) thick. It is rated to pulverize more than 6,000 sq. ft. (557 sq m) of 6 to 8 in. (15 to 20 cm) thick asphalt per hour.

The bucket-locking system allows it to be used on almost any large loader. Street patches, full road repairs, base stabilization and opening utility trenches in asphalt are just a few of its many uses. The AZ-600B transports on its own trailer behind a oneton truck.

For more information, call 888/947-7378 or visit www.asphaltzipper.com.

Asphalt Drum Mixers Offers Durable Cold Feed Bins

ADM cold feed bins are equipped with tapered sidewalls and a specially designed belt feeder.

Offered in both stationary and portable designs, cold feed bins from Asphalt Drum Mixers Inc. (ADM) are engineered and constructed for maximum durability. Built to withstand abrasive aggregates and other job site abuse, the bins are manufactured with all welded painted steel, industrial strength columns and end bracing to outlast other similar systems, according to the manufac-

turer.

ADM cold feed bins are equipped with tapered sidewalls and a specially designed belt feeder to virtually eliminate plugging and bridging problems, whether the bin is heaped or low. Material flow is further enhanced by a fully adjustable radial gate system with self-relieving tapered discharge opening. These features all work together to

simplify operation and ensure high quality asphalt production.

The bins provide more capacity and better accuracy for Superpave and other high specification mixes. Available in single bin and multi-bin configurations, ADM cold feed bins are compatible with any control system and can be retrofitted to add extra tonnage capacity to existing cold feed systems,

regardless of brand. The bins are offered with bolt-on or hinged extensions, and minimal onsite assembly is required.

A family-owned company since 1974, Asphalt Drum Mixers Inc. offers asphalt plants, auxiliary equipment, parts and service.

For more information, call 260/637-5729 or visit www.admasphaltplants.com.

JCB Unveils New EcoDig System in NextGen Backhoes JCB’s newest backhoe loader offers customers average fuel savings ranging from six to 16 percent at typical daily work rates, largely achieved through the introduction of a new EcoDig system incorporating three hydraulic pumps.

The machine’s new design features a restyled counterweight and new vertical grille design offering an aggressive feel. The sharper lines on the excavator and loader profiles contribute to the robust look, while the sloping hood retains forward visibility, according to the manufacturer.

In addition, the machines include a host of new features including: • Improved cab for greater comfort • Power brakes providing proportional braking and fuel economy improvements Optional features: • New heated front windshield • An in-cab hot beverage machine • Combined hammer and bidirectional circuit for versatility in attachment use • A factory-fitted hose reel for improved productivity and versatility JCB Group Managing Director of Product Development and Commercial Operations Tim Burnhope said: “JCB has been at the forefront of backhoe design for almost 60 years and through innovation we continue to raise the bar and offer our customers machines which have superior performance and are more cost efficient and comfortable to operate.

“The new generation of JCB backhoe loaders represent a significant investment and the result is JCB’s most efficient backhoe loader ever, which has been designed with fuel economy firmly in mind. Whether loading, roading or digging JCB’s latest generation of backhoe offers the customer a machine that works harder but uses less fuel.

“We believe the new JCB backhoe will cement our position as the world’s best selling brand in a market which we expect to grow significantly over the next five years.”

Increased Productivity The biggest changes are under the skin. A new EcoDig hydraulic system now utilizes three hydraulic pumps to provide the same hydraulic output but at lower engine speeds, itself delivering average fuel savings of up to 15 percent. Operators are able to select from two working modes, either Eco mode or low flow, to optimize productivity and improve machine control.

A secondary benefit of the three pump design is faster performance of the extradig extending dipper stick, further boosting pro-

ductivity.

The new hydraulic system and lower engine speeds also contribute to a cut in exhaust emissions and a reduction in overall machine noise levels, both inside the cab and externally, according to the manufacturer.

The new backhoes come with the existing EcoRoad options of smooth ride system (SRS) and TorqueLock to help boost productivity further. TorqueLock reduces fuel consumption by up to 25 percent while increasing speed by up to 10 percent and the smooth ride system maximizes load retention around the job site for increased productivity and operator comfort.

Power brakes are to be introduced on both 3CX and 4CX models. The system provides proportional braking throughout the pedal travel, providing operators with improved braking and reduced effort.

JCB also has redesigned the pedal position in the backhoe loader cab, with an auto-

motive style position which improves ergonomics. The power brake design ensures that there is full brake pad release when the driver comes off the pedal. This enables operators to better maintain roading speeds and contributes to a further one per cent saving in fuel consumption.

By using the machine’s hydraulic system to supply oil for the power brakes, there is no requirement for separate brake reservoirs.

This simplifies service and reduces the number of daily checks for the operator.

JCB’s EcoLoad package of options add to the enhanced productivity. The return-to-dig feature automatically resets the shovel to dig position, saving time and effort; the transmission disconnect diverts hydraulic power to the loader for faster lifting. In addition, high engine torque at low revs provides excellent pushing and hill climbing performance and limited slip differentials (LSD) provide extra traction in challenging conditions.

A New Design and a New Cab The cab adopts a similar style to the JCB Fastrac, with improved run-off channels to prevent rain water collecting on the roof. The machines also benefit from independently adjustable working lights at the front and rear of the roof, providing improved visibility all around the working area in poor light conditions.

The cab is refreshed internally too, with a move to a black interior in the lower half of the cab, including the seat, which has new material to provide increased comfort and less wear. The pillars and roof lining adopt a lighter grey color, making the cab feel even more light and spacious.

JCB engineers looked for innovation in every detail in the cab, and have found a new material to cover the redesigned steering wheel, offering improved grip for the driver.

The backhoes also benefit from new high quality switches, activating consoles which provide light definition. The switches have laser etched images that are clearly backlit, enabling clear visibility of switches at night.

JCB will be taking a lead from the automotive industry with the option of an automatic heated front windshield on all 3CX and 4CX models. Available in time for winter 2010, the heated windshield rapidly clears ice and misting in cold conditions.

Attachment Availability A new combined hammer and bidirectional auxiliary circuit makes the fitting of attachment power circuits easier. The circuit has been designed to provide low flow and high flow across all 3CX and 4CX models, including all fixed and extending dipper variants. This increases versatility for the customer as the machines are compatible with an increased number of optional attachments.

There also is the option of a new 29 ft. hose reel on the hand held tool circuit, that allows contractors to use hydraulic power tools alongside the backhoe loader, removing the need for separate power packs.

Taking a Break In the 1970’s JCB supplied a kettle as an option with each machine so that the driver could make a hot drink even when away from the site facilities.

Now JCB is to revive this link with the past. All 3CX and 4CX models will be available with an optional hot beverage machine, capable of producing tea or coffee, that will lock securely into an area at the side of the cab. The machine uses the 12V supply directly from the machine and has been designed to fit into the existing cab layout.

components, therefore a one-size-fits-all approach is not sufficient.

The first step a person should take when purchasing a new or used piece of equipment is to consult the manual and develop a maintenance regimen based on the manufacturer’s recommendations. Most operator’s manuals will clearly detail the appropriate maintenance schedule for individual equipment models. If the manual can’t be found, try the manufacturer’s Web site. Most leading manufacturers will have manuals readily

When the compact tractor loader backhoe (TLB) was first introduced several years ago, many saw it as a “toy,” or simply a notso-serious, smaller version of the full-size TLB. But as time went on and these machines gained job site experience, people started to realize that compact TLBs offered a nuance over its larger equipment cousin that justified its place in the market — performance combined with maneuverability.

Though these smaller machines No matter how well couldn’t approach the power and payload of the full-size TLB, they could built the machine, use still offer the necessary capabilities to answer many tasks, while being com- the manufacturer’s pact enough to get into areas one wouldn’t dream of broaching with documentation to develop a larger machines.

In fact, it’s not unusual to find the loose connections operator’s manual still sealed and protected The first reaction one might have to this within its original plastic bag years after the equipment has been put in service — if one daily maintenance list is “when will I actually get around to using the equipment?” Do can find the manual at all.

One possible reason for this is that some manufacturers really expect mechanics and assume that maintenance requirements and operators to conduct all of these checks other vital information is roughly the same before and after each use? The simple for different pieces of equipment. Even answer is “no.” Some items should be when looking specifically at compact TLBs, checked daily without question, such as different models are built with different checking the engine oil, but what manufac-

turers are trying to do with such substantial daily checklists is provide a guideline for what areas need regular monitoring. Perhaps one doesn’t tighten the lug nuts every day, but he or she should be aware that these are areas that need regular attention — and know that they can’t be put off for weeks or months at a time. At the very least, the mechanic or operator should do a daily walkthrough of the equipment, while keeping this list of checks in mind.

Clean the Machine But before doing that daily walkthrough, make sure the machine is clean.

Whereas cleaning an automobile yields aesthetic value, keeping equipment clean results in easier to spot maintenance issues, less extensive repairs and greater uptime.

Many times repair events begin with signs of wear or component failure, such as cracks and fluid leaks. And if the machine is covered with dirt and grime, it’s possible these signs can go unnoticed until they become something worse, potentially resulting in equipment failure.

Furthermore, filth can hide exterior equipment damage, such as dents and other evidence of operator misuse. Cleaning the equipment could reveal this damage and cue the mechanic to investigate further to check for potential internal issues that lie behind a dent.

Additionally, from time to time it’s important to clean what’s under the hood as well, but make sure to do it appropriately. Always wait until the engine and hydraulic system are cool before cleaning. Cold water on a hot engine or hydrostatic pump can cause costly damage. Also, do not direct the stream of a pressure washer directly at the hydraulic system breather since it is possible that water could get into the hydraulic system and contaminate the fluid.

Listen to the Machine Beyond the potential maintenance issues one can determine through routine checks and walkthroughs, it’s important for operators to pay attention to other issues the equipment may be indicating through other sights, sounds or smells.

Some of the most common indications of trouble include smoke, performance loss, squealing belts and other uncommon engine noises such as knocking sounds. If any of these behaviors are exhibited, one should stop the machine immediately and determine what’s causing the anomaly. All of these are symptoms of burgeoning problems and should be addressed as such to prevent larger, more costly issues from developing.

Remember, any change in operation is a sig-

nal that maintenance is needed.

Shop Around Of course, it’s important to conduct routine maintenance and watch for signs of problems with any piece of equipment, but is it possible to reduce maintenance requirements before ever purchasing a compact TLB? Definitely. That’s why a potential buyer should take the time to study the available equipment and determine several “maintenance-free” features that some manufacturers are building into their equipment.

Due to their extended versatility and ease of use, compact TLBs have become very popular in the rental market. This rental popularity, in turn, has led to benefits for all owners and operators of compact TLBs. How so? Well, in the rental market, a machine with low maintenance requirements is of primary importance.

Manufacturers and rental operators alike fully understand that the rental customer will not be conducting any routine checks or maintenance on their machines. Renters need a machine to do a certain job and there’s no way they’re going to spend any rental time maintaining someone else’s machine. All of this maintenance must be done by the rental operator — and the faster it can be completed and the machine can be back out on rent, the better.

Therefore, some manufacturers have been building their machines to be more robust and better able to handle the rigors of rental, which results in better equipment for all.

Features such as oversized pins on all areas of articulation, composite bearings and sealed joints to keep dirt out and grease in, and the elimination of metal-on-metal contact in the backhoe joints all contribute to machines with greatly reduced maintenance requirements. Furthermore, these machines typically offer more smooth and precise operation, which contributes to better productivity.

Obviously, it’s in a manufacturer’s best interests to continue to build compact TLBs with better components to increase durability and reduce maintenance concerns, but there will never be a machine that doesn’t require some regular care. That’s why these same manufacturers pour thousands of dollars into documentation, Web sites and other customer service devices. All that remains is for the end-user to “use” it. No matter how well built the machine, use the manufacturer’s documentation to develop a maintenance strategy, follow it and watch for warning signs. It may take some extra time, but the result is reduced headaches and a reliable investment that keeps paying dividends for years to come.

Topcon Positioning Systems (TPS) has acquired InlandGEO, one of Topcon’s top performing distributors. InlandGEO is headquartered in Madrid, Spain, and has four additional offices in Spain, two in Portugal and one in the Canary Islands.

In addition to continuing to distribute Topcon and Sokkia positioning products to the construction and survey markets in Spain and Portugal, InlandGEO will become the headquarters for distribution and support for Topcon precision agriculture products in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Established in 1987, InlandGEO “has a deep knowledge of the positioning industry, starting with lasers, machine control and precision land leveling systems,” said Ray O’Connor, TPS president and CEO. “This acquisition reinforces InlandGEO as a premiere Topcon and Sokkia distributor in Spain and Portugal, and now provides the opportunity for rapid growth of Topcon’s position in precision agricultural markets all across Europe, the Middle East and Africa.”

From 1993 through 2005, InlandGEO was a top European distributor of Trimble positioning products. It acquired one of the world’s largest Sokkia dealers in 2002, and then acquired Topcon distribution for Spain and Portugal in 2005.

O’Connor also announced that Carlos

Monreal, InlandGEO president and CEO, will remain president of the company, in addition to his current duties as vice president of global agriculture for Topcon Precision Agriculture (TPA), and he will be responsible for TPA’s European operations. TPA is a business unit of TPS and is led by Albert Zahalka, senior vice president and general manager of the division.

Tony Hirayama, former executive vice president of TPS and president and CEO of TPA, as well as holding several positions with Topcon Corporation in Tokyo, will assume the position of CEO of InlandGEO. Dave Mudrick, president of Topcon America Corporation, the holding company for TPS, will be chairman of the InlandGEO board of directors. Ewout Korpershoek, managing director of Topcon Europe Positioning, Ivan Di Federico, TPS senior vice president of global engineering, and O’Connor round out the board of directors.

Monreal praised the acquisition, saying, “The global scope of the new board of directors, with officers from Europe, the United States and Japan shows a strong commitment to InlandGEO and its expanded customer base. This acquisition is a very positive step for Topcon, InlandGEO, the company’s employees, customers and potential customers.”

Advanced Grading Technology Aids in Early Road Work Completion INTERCHANGE from page 14

use our rover to check the grade,” Barnett said.

Patrick Ward, owner of Big Country Surveying, noted that multiple surveying crews were utilized because the system was highly productive, yet GaDOT was skeptical of the system’s grading accuracy at first. Early on, as many as four or five surveying crews were involved before being reduced to two for most of the project. One crew was used during the last few months of work. The surveyor gathered topographical data every 25 ft. (7.6 m) both before and after the stone was placed and recorded the data in a spreadsheet.

“If the surface had to be a foot below finished grade, we had to put it in the spreadsheet and give it to [GaDOT] to make sure that it was within tolerance,” Ward said, adding that recording the points using conventional staking methods would have been extremely time-consuming.

“If you have a Millimeter and a rod, you can check every foot if you want to and not have to compute another grade or pull another string.”

“Checking grade with a rover, you could go out there and decide not to put the final layer of asphalt on until the final stage of the project and leave the pavement surrounding manholes twotenths of an inch low. It saved on a lot of staking and a lot of setting curbs and lines to grade,” Barnett added.

Roper Laser helped Big Country Surveying to mount a single base station on a pole near the construction trailer and provided positioning signals to two motorgraders, two dozers, a tractor and two rovers. The PZL-1 Lazer Zone transmitters were deployed along the highway, 800 ft. (244 m) apart.

“One thing about the system is, you’ve got to know the limits,” said Barnett. “It can’t do everything, but it can do a lot. We started the job grading with Millimeter but setting the stakes to verify what we were doing. A couple of sections were passed by the state using stringlines and conventional grade methods, and once they saw that we were matching the topographical survey, they got a comfort level. Then they would walk behind the millimeter pole and verify our grades and it ended up at the end of the job that if they said it was on grade, it was on grade. We went to

Not only were the dirt and stone grade-checked but the concrete pavement also was gradechecked after finishing to ensure that there were no discrepancies.

Rental Industry Forecast Shows Signs of Improvement The latest information from economic forecasting firm IHS Global Insight prepared for the American Rental Association (ARA) and Rental Management magazine reported that the equipment rental industry is starting to show signs of recovery from the national recession.

“The Outlook report indicates that the worst may be over for the equipment rental industry,” said Christine Wehrman, CEO, American Rental Association. “The U.S. economy is proving its resilience with growth returning to many sectors. However, construction spending continues to lag behind the rest of the economy. While construction spending is weak, spending on rental is beginning to grow and is leading the way in the construction space. We see the equipment rental industry gaining momentum in 2010 and 2011, with significant growth moving into 2012. These are positive signs for the entire economy as manufacturers, service providers and other vendors begin their budget planning for 2011 in the coming weeks and months.

“Although nonresidential construction, state and local spending remain down, other areas of the U.S. construction market have begun to rebound. With business equipment investments surging, almost $6 billion in stimulus money flowing into the economy in 2010 and consumer confidence driving increased demand, the equipment rental industry is poised to gain strength in Q3 and Q4, with improvement in all categories forecasted for 2011,” said Wehrman.

The equipment rental industry is made up of three general market segments: Construction & Industrial Equipment, General Tool and Party & Event. Influenced by the decline in both residential and nonresidential construction spending, the Construction & Industrial Equipment market has been hit hardest by the recession.

Economic indicators show that employment in the construction industry has increased significantly with the onset of the 2010 construction season.

“This is a positive sign for the equipment rental market as cautious contractors will

increase their equipment fleets through short-term and long-term rentals to keep employees productive,” said Wehrman.

According to IHS Global Insight, even though General Tool did not take as hard of hit as the Construction & Industrial Equipment market in the recession, it did decline as consumers postponed planned home improvement and do-it-yourself projects during the recession. Although new housing starts remain low, residential construction has noticeably increased in the past year and is forecasted to continue its recovery over the year as consumers are now willing to spend money on updating or repairing their homes.

“With consumer confidence growing homeowners and small business owners will rely on their rental stores to supply them with the tools they need to get these delayed projects started in 2010,” said Wehrman.

Party & Event equipment rentals have been the least influenced by the recent recession. Experiencing only a modest decline in 2009, this category is forecasted to grow in 2010. This is largely due to the consumer side of the business, which includes weddings, anniversaries, graduations and other celebrations. Fashion and trends influence this market, and consumers expect rental companies to have the latest options.

Already, manufacturers and service providers in the Party & Event market have invested the time and resources needed to develop and market new products.

“With the influx of capital into this market in 2010, and positive customer demand, the Party & Event market is poised to be a leader in our industry regarding the market’s recovery into 2011 and beyond,” said Wehrman.

DONATION - HELP Support IAAP’s Political Activities – The IAAP Political Action Committee (PAC) was created in order to provide financial support for our allies in the Illinois General Assembly. Whether from Chicago or Downstate Illinois, Democrat or Republican, these legislators all have one thing in common – they support bills that help the Illinois aggregates industry and oppose bills that hurt our interests. As the cost of political campaigns continues to rise, we want to ensure that legislators who support this industry can compete and continue to do good work. For that reason, supporting the IAAP PAC is critically important to the future of our industry, your company, and your Association’s political activities. Please consider sending a donation, payable to the IAAP, to: John Henriksen, Secretary/Treasurer, IAAP PAC, 1115 S. 2nd Street, Springfield, Illinois 62704.

John Deere Implements New TMC Option Total Machine Control (TMC) is the way John Deere has chosen to implement electrohydraulics on construction and forestry equipment. It provides for more intuitive controls and enables automation of functions that operators previously had to do manually, according to the manufacturer.

This option for the John Deere 310SJ and 410J backhoe loaders gives operators comfort, faster cycle times and the best automatic features of an excavator and 4WD loader built into one machine.

The TMC difference starts in the operator’s seat. Armrest-mounted joystick controls turn with the seat and eliminate pilot towers, resulting in enhanced visibility, added comfort and reduced heat in the cab, due to the absence of hydraulic oil used in other control systems.

Total Machine Control also means no more foot pedals or extra levers to control the stabilizers, extendable dipperstick and front/rear auxiliary hydraulics — all are now controlled within finger tip reach of the joystick.

The Right Controls for the Job Site Working in close-quarter job sites or around traffic is easier with the TMC system. Operators can use the minijoystick on the right-hand controller to move the backhoe and loader simultaneously and maneuver the machine around obstacles.

More Precision, More Production Precise controls enable the operator to dig more accurately and gently around buried pipe or cable. For even more precision, integral-controlled load lowering and regenerative hydraulic functions improve operation with Worksite Pro attachments.

Total Machine Control units also feature three speed modes: craning, normal and a high-production mode that can improve cycle times up to 20 percent.

Tool Carrier Option A dedicated Tool Carrier (TC) option is available for the 310SJ and

410J backhoes equipped with TMC. Deere’s heavily reinforced Worksite Pro loader coupler not only provides enhanced visibility, it also picks up current Deere Worksite Pro attachments, older Deere-JRB attachments and a wide variety of competitor loader attachments for additional versatility.

Electronic parallel lift, return-tocarry and boom height kick-out features increase loader productivity no matter what attachment is used. One advantage is the ability to “turn off’ parallel lift when the forks have been dropped and a bucket is in use. The operator has parallel lift when, and only when needed.

Tool Carrier backhoes with TMC also have increased loader lift specifications for high-performance tool carrier work.

In addition, the 310SJ and 410J TC backhoes with TMC are designed to be simple and easy to maintain.

They feature fewer loader parts — a single bucket cylinder, no Z-bar linkage, no self-leveling rod — and among the industry’s fewest grease zerks.

ating jobs in direct construction and the supply sectors and all of it is boosting the economy,” Gannon said.

He cautioned that while the recovery act was currently supporting transportation work and jobs in 2010, its impacts will phase down quickly when those funds are no longer available in 2011.

“Frankly, the uncertain outlook about the reauthorization of the federal highway and public transportation programs is making a challenging situation worse,” Gannon said. ”It also is the uncertainty and trepidation caused by how the delay is being handled — with short-term extensions and deficit spending.”

Gannon told the committee that for 50

years the federal-aid highway and transit programs have been “a model of responsible and stable financing” benefitting system users.

“That dependability, which is needed to plan and execute multi-year transportation improvement projects, is now threatened by a lack of political will to enhance Highway Trust Fund revenues,” he said.

He closed his testimony saying that true economic recovery for the transportation construction industry will only be realized when Congress and the Obama Administration address the nation’s infrastructure challenges head on and pass a robustly funded highway and transit investment bill.

Cat Auctions Names Trettel New CFO, General Manager Cat Auction Services has added Gary Trettel as the company’s new chief financial officer and general manager. In his dual role, Trettel will oversee day-today accounting and financial reporting and provide strategic and operational direction.

“Joining Cat Auction Services gave me the opportunity to help build something exciting from its earliest stages. My goal at Cat Auction Services is to help us get better, step by step, every day,” Trettel said. “I believe in company president Rick Albin and the business model in place and am excited to help continue the great momentum the company has achieved already. We recognize our unique position in the equipment auction arena and have the right people in place to deliver what we feel is the new standard in heavy equipment auctions.”

Trettel continued, “The com-

pany has already established a culture of customer service, and I hope to expand upon that culture.

It’s essential we continue to provide our customers with an auction experience unlike any other.”

Trettel most recently served as president and CEO of Mohawk Moving and Storage in Minneapolis, where he helped grow the United Van Lines affiliate.

“The experience I gained at Mohawk prepared me to take on these new challenges with Cat Auction Services. Both companies are in the service industry, where customer satisfaction and loyalty are critically important, and streamlining all aspects of the business helps create success.

The little things truly make a big difference.”

“We’re excited to add someone of Gary’s caliber to our team.

He has the experience, energy and leadership to help us accomplish our goals. As a company, we’re highly ambitious and feel that we’re in many ways reinventing the heavy equipment auction industry. Gary’s presence on our leadership team will help ensure that we’re continuing to think creatively, progress efficiently, and deliver the products and services that live up to the Caterpillar name,” Albin said.

Cat Auction Services entered the heavy equipment auction arena in late 2008 and has been active across the country.

Reviews from all corners have been positive, and recent auctions have drawn buyers from 49 states and nearly three dozen countries. A June auction in Des Moines generated more than $9 million in sales.

Caterpillar Second Quarter Profit Soars; Raises Outlook

By Stephen Manning AP BUSINESS WRITER

Caterpillar’s second-quarter earnings shot up 91 percent with the heavy machinery manufacturer reporting robust sales of equipment for industries that range from mining and infrastructure to energy.

The company boosted its 2010 profit outlook as well on July 22, saying it is trying to keep up with new orders and will ramp up production of its signature black-and-yellow equipment in the second half of the year.

The results and Caterpillar’s own forecast reflect an uneven recovery and some anxiety about what kind of rebound to expect.

Emerging markets like China and Brazil, not U.S. or Europe, still lead the way.

Asian sales grew by 62 percent to $1.7 billion. Caterpillar said overall sales of machinery were helped by low interest rates and higher metal prices that spurred mining activity, and a brighter global economic picture.

The North American market, Caterpillar’s biggest, saw sales rise 43 percent. The company said the growth was driven by an improvement in home construction, a modest increase in federal spending for highways, and better prices in sectors like metals,

coal and lumber.

While sales are up, Caterpillar has not brought back most of the 19,000 full-time

Caterpillar is a bellwether of industrial activity and broader industrial growth.

Almost every sector needs the products that

“We continue to be positive about the longer-term prospects for many of the industries we serve.”

Caterpillar

and 18,000 contract and part time workers it was forced to shed during the recession.

Caterpillar added about 3,650 new workers by the end of the second quarter to push its total employment to about 97,500. A third of those jobs were outside the United States.

Caterpillar CEO Doug Oberhelman noted “significant economic concerns” that remain globally, but he remained optimistic.

“We continue to be positive about the longer-term prospects for many of the industries we serve,” he said.

Caterpillar sells in order to grow, whether it’s a utility installing new power lines or a developer building new homes. When the economy is expanding, Caterpillar sells more of its backhoes, mining equipment and engines.

When the recession set in, Caterpillar was among the first to feel it.

The company’s quarter and its forecast reflect a global recovery and economies still smarting from the economic downturn.

For instance, dealer inventories remained

flat, which is good compared with last year during the same period when inventories were trimmed by nearly $1.9 billion. On the other hand, dealers have yet to begin restocking, which is usually what happens when an economic recovery is gaining momentum.

Still, Caterpillar has posted two strong quarters this year after seeing profits tumble drastically in 2009 and the company’s outlook cheered investors.

Caterpillar reported second-quarter net income of $707 million, or $1.09 per share.

That is from $371 million, or 60 cents per share of profit a year ago.

Sales rose 31 percent to $10.4 billion, with Caterpillar reporting gains in machinery sales in all four global regions it serves.

Manufacturing costs fell by $316 million, helping to fatten profits.

That easily topped Wall Street expectations of 85 cents per share of earnings on revenue of $9.8 billion.

For all of 2010, Caterpillar expects to earn between $3.15 to $3.85 per share, up from a previous forecast of $2.50 to $3.25 per share.

It also tightened its revenue forecast, bumping up the lower range by $100 million.

Caterpillar now expects between $39 billion to $42 billion in revenue.

Railroad Park to Revitalize Blighted Area RAILROAD from page 26

Multi-Purpose Beauty According to Katherine Billmeier, the executive director of the not-for-profit Railroad Park Foundation, “Railroad Park has been in development for some 15- plus years. The park is a game changer for Birmingham. It completely revitalizes a once blighted industrial area.

“The park offers a site for concerts, plays, festivals and weddings, but I think the vast green space to lounge in downtown is probably my personal favorite. It’s like an oasis out there that just invites you to lie down on that lush green grass with the city skyscrapers and the historic statue of Vulcan as a backdrop,” said Billmeier.

Railroad Park is a public/private partnership, benefiting from local and federal dollars, as well as corporate and individual donations.

Its location is ideal, according to Billmeier.

“With the beautiful setting, plenty of nearby street parking and vast open space it is perfect for all sorts of events, both public and private. From concerts and festivals of all kinds, to theatrical performances and movie screenings, Railroad Park has been designed to host events of all types.”

According to Billmeier, construction has been a fairly seamless process.

“While the major feature of the park is a wide open, unstructured space, a number of specific features are represented on the conceptual plan. The broad strokes of the plan include a rectangular artificial lake at the northeast corner of the Phase I site. A series of four dramatically sculpted hills are shown pushed against the raised railway area, planted with native trees in a loose arrangement.

The park’s first phase includes the manmade lake and stormwater reclamation ponds, a lawn, tree-shaded areas, flower and vegetable gardens, fitness stations, a 1/3 mile rail trail, a paved plaza and a space for administrative quarters.

“There are a variety of special events being planned and we hope everyone will come out and enjoy outdoor movies, concerts, plays and our southern heritage. The park will be monitored by park rangers along with a state-of-the-art security system,” said Billmeier.

Reclaiming City Life The total cost of Phase I, including some land purchase, is $23 million. The funding has come from the City of Birmingham, Jefferson County Commission, federal support and private funding. The Community Foundation of Greater Birmingham helped raise $8.7 million through the Three Parks Initiative.

Billmeier said, “An active and vibrant city center is critically important for economic

development and quality of life. Green space is always at the top of the list for reasons to relocate to an area. I’m thrilled to be a part of this, and I can’t wait to celebrate the opening of the park to donors, residents, students and all in the Birmingham region.”

A Work of Art The well-regarded California-based landscape architecture firm Tom Leader Studio has played in major role in the project for quite some time.

“For five years I’ve been coming to Birmingham to work on the master planning and other aspects of the park,” said Leader.

“There’s a lot of urban land that includes abandoned rail, but this is active rail.

Birmingham doesn’t really have a natural feature like a river or a bay, so that’s what the rail is here for. We wanted people to be able to experience trains one-on-one, at the same level. We developed strategies, not to distribute artifacts and relics, but to bring visitors directly to the train, which rolls very slowly, almost lumbering.

“We scooped out the south end and pushed it to the north end to create a series of hills interconnected with pedestrian walks.

Those coming here can get all types of views of the the rails and city below,” Leader explained.

As part of the planning, Leader’s crews created a large irrigation reservoir for grass planting, which is fed by harvested rain water and well water on-site. The biggest challenge came when it was discovered the city didn’t own a particular strip of land included in the plans.

“Norfolk Southern didn’t want to give up the title, so we had to do some rearranging as far as that ‘wall’,” said Leader.

Lea Ann Macknally, president of Birmingham’s Macknally Ross Land Design added, “We are very excited about the storm water aspect. The focal point of the systems is a 1 AC lake that flows into a stone creek bed and runs for approximately three city blocks through a series of check dams and small pools. The water is then pumped four blocks to the east to the beginning of a created wetland area. The wetland is planted with native vegetation that filters the water as it moves through back to the lakes.

“We prepared the concept and hired a hydrologist / civil engineer to work with us on defining the capacity, overflow and check dam features. Our pump system consultant worked with us to specify the recirculation systems, as well as the feed for the aeration jets at each of the pools and to a separate biopond that collects roof runoff from the structures and overflows to the lake system. We worked closely with TLS to design the hardscape features such as the headwalls and checkdams, so that they are integrated into other hardscape components of the site, such

as pedestrian walks.

“The earthwork contractor, electrical contractor, stone contractor and landscape contractor were all heavily involved in this effort. We were in the field a great deal of time working closely with them in the layout of the creek, stone and planting. All that had to occur prior to us releasing the water in the stream and testing the recirculation,” Macknally said.

Officials said park construction has already prompted development in the area and could spark the completion of a planned linear park near Interstate 65.

Railroad Park will officially open to the public on Sept. 18, 2010, with plans for Phase II still in the works.

“I hope it becomes a place to gather and have parties of 40,000 or even four. Trains are cool and watching them within the context of the park will be very interesting. It’s more active than watching the water. There’s quite a culture, some of it underground, involving train watching. I like the movement. And in this case it’s the life blood of the city. This is where it came from,” said Leader.

CEG

From Design to Reality The idea of creating a park centered on the Railroad Reservation has been discussed for several decades. Years ago, a federal grant was secured through the state department of transportation. With the funding, the city purchased the bulk of the property in 1997. The Friends of the Railroad District was formed a few years later to bring together community leaders for the purpose of promoting the revitalization along the railroad corridor and to raise funds for the development of a linear park. After years of negotiations, detailed studies and discussions over design, actual plans to build a park became a reality.

A so-called “hickory forest” winds up a hill near 14th street, connecting to the adventure playground. One end of a planned artificial lake consists of garden plots, a greenhouse and an engineered wetland. The fourth hill protrudes into the lake. A rail bridge and trolley stop are accessible from the main entry at the east end of the water.

South of the lake space was designed for an arts plaza and amphitheater, yet to be constructed. A promenade connects the terminus of 17th street south with a planned restaurant at the southwest corner of the lake, as well as a raised stage facing the lawn. Three pavilions at the park entrances from 16th, 15th, and 14th streets were included in the planning, along with a strolling garden. Acres of open lawn, walking trails and bike racks complete the project, along with the Eastgate Emporium, a covered event space that simulates a railroad depot, with wood-paneled boxcars designed specifically for concession stands, public restrooms, security and offices.
