NDOT Oversees Tunnel Extension Project By Chuck Harvey CEG CORRESPONDENT

Cashman, Cat Twenty-Two Stand Test of Time...10

Gradall Event Celebrates 20,000th Excavator...42

In response to rock falls in the Lake Tahoe Basin, the Nevada Department of Transportation is overseeing construction of a tunnel extension on U.S. 50. The 60-ft. (18.2 m)-long, 27-ft. (8.2 m) tall flat-topped structure is on the north side of the westbound Cave Rock Tunnel. It will protect motorists and bicyclists by catching falling rocks, while blending in with the natural surroundings. Colors, patterns and textures of the structure will match the adjacent rock faces. The approximately $6 million project results from a large-scale rock fall that occurred in early February 2015 and the threat of future rock falls. Also, U.S. 50 traffic volumes have risen in the area from an average annual figure of 13,600 vehicles a day in 2006 to an average of 19,000 vehicles in 2015. “Our goal is to provide a state transportation system to keep all of Nevada safe and connected,” said Meg Ragonese, public information officer of the Nevada Department of Transportation. “And the project will include other improvements to help keep everyone on the road safe.” Lighting and white paint will be added inside each tunnel see TUNNEL page 14

Geotechnical Exploration Oklahoma Projects Crucial to Construction Receive $112M in By Lori Lovely CEG CORRESPONDENT

“Most of Alaska is pretty remote,” said Sean Baski, project manager, State of Alaska Department of Transportation, Central Region Highway Design Section. It also features some of the harshest terrain in the United States. It may be remote, but the city of Palmer and the area around Anchorage — the state’s biggest city — is one of the fastest growing areas in the state. Anchorage, hemmed in by mountains, water and a military base, has no space

for growth, so people are building farther out, where land is cheaper. Living in these “bedroom communities” and working in Anchorage results in a lot of commuter traffic. Traffic numbers are going “way up” on the Glenn Highway, which carries commuters to and from the city limits and extends beyond the borough. Average Annual Daily Traffic numbers in 2014 were 17,000-23,000-24,000 vehicles, Baski reported. “Projected for 2034, they’re about 50 percent higher, or 26,000-36,000 vehicles.” see DRILLING page 32

Grant Funding

Highlights of the Oklahoma Transportation Commission’s Aug. 1 meeting include award of nearly $22 million in federal funding for local transportation alternatives projects and emergency declarations for repair of damage to an I-35 bridge in Murray County and a railroad bridge in Kay County. Commissioners also awarded contracts for major Oklahoma Department of Transportation projects on SH 51 in Tulsa County, U.S. 75A in Okmulgee County, several traffic signals in the Tulsa and Oklahoma City metro areas, the Duncan Bypass in Stephens County and SH 99 in Johnston County. The commission approved nearly $22 million in federal funding to be matched with local funding for 45 projects to see GRANT page 30

Matt Murphy

Following years of extensive planning and collaboration, federal, state and local officials and members of the community joined the Colorado Department of Transportation to celebrate the groundbreaking of the C-470 Express Lanes project, which will increase mobility and user choice on a 12.5 mi. (20 km) stretch of C-470 primarily between I-25 and Wadsworth Boulevard. “We celebrate the efforts of the C-470 Coalition and all the legislative advocates that came together to support a project that not only has an incredible regional economic impact, but will touch the daily lives of commuters and community members in this area,” said Shailen Bhatt, CDOT executive director. “We wish the project team smooth and speedy construction as they deliver this much-anticipated project to a rapidly developing region.” When this $276 million project completes, motorists will have the option to use

the Express Lanes for a faster, more reliable commute, or the free general purpose lanes. The project also includes full reconstruction of existing pavement, the addition of auxiliary lanes at selected locations, on- and offramp improvements, realignment of substandard curves, widening of existing bridges within the project area, replacing the bridges over the South Platte River and installing ITS elements and tolling equipment. More than 100,000 motorists currently use this segment of C-470 each day with volumes projected to increase 40 percent by 2035. Construction is projected to be complete in the spring of 2019.

Work Crews Return to Site of Massive Southwest Colorado Mine-Waste Spill By Dan Elliott AssociAted Press

deNVer (AP) construction crews returned to the scene of a massive mine-waste spill in southwestern colorado to stabilize the mine opening with steel and concrete, the U.s. environmental Protection Agency said. the ePA said the work is designed to keep rock and dirt from collapsing at the entrance to the Gold King Mine and to make sure it’s safe to enter during future cleanup efforts. the stabilization work will last through october. An ePA-led contractor inadvertently triggered a spill of 3 million gal. of wastewater from the Gold King last August while doing preliminary cleanup work. the blowout tainted rivers in colorado, New Mexico and Utah with potentially toxic heavy metals, prompting utilities and farmers to stop drawing from the waterways. the water quality quickly returned to pre-spill levels, the ePA said.

in an email to the Associated Press, the ePA said it is very unlikely the work being done at the mine this year would trigger another spill. “the ePA has taken precautions to prevent any unanticipated discharges,” the agency said. the contractor hired to do this summer’s work, environmental restoration LLc, was also on the scene at the time of the August blowout. But the ePA and outside investigators have said it was government officials, not the contractor, who made the decision to begin the work that led to the spill. the ePA pledged to alert downstream communities if anything goes wrong this summer, using a notification plan put in place after the August blowout. the agency was widely criticized for not alerting all the tribal, state and local governments affected by the spill. Wastewater is still running from the mine, and if the rate increases during this summer’s work, a temporary treat-

ment plant installed last fall can handle a higher flow, the ePA said. the $1.8 million plant went into operation in october. officials said at the time it could handle 800 gal. per minute, while wastewater was flowing from the mine at about 560 gal. per minute. the plant is scheduled to run through November of this year. colorado lawmakers have urged the ePA to keep it operating, and the agency said it is looking into that. the August blowout triggered lawsuits and intense criticism of the ePA, both for causing the spill and for its handling of the aftermath. the agency has proposed using the federal superfund program to fund a long-term cleanup of the Gold King and other nearby mining sites.

Cashman, 1936 Cat Twenty-Two Stand Test of Time By Kate Gallagher Cashman EquipmEnt

the 1930s were not an easy time in the united states. the stock market Crash of 1929 left everyone reeling and, in the Great Depression that followed, 15 million people were unemployed. president Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected and began making all sorts of new Deals to rebuild the economy — many of which included building in general. the economy and the people both needed strong equipment to support these initiatives, and the newly formed Caterpillar tractor company and the Cashman Equipment dealership answered that demand with built-to-last tracktype tractors. Cashman Equipment turns 85 years old in august. to celebrate Cashman takes a look at both the past and the present with the rebuild of a Cat model twenty-two tractor. in 1934, Caterpillar debut a new track-type tractor, the Cat model twenty-two. Replacing the Cat model twenty, the twenty-two’s 1934 spec sheet indicated that the tractor had a 4-cylinder, 4x5-in. bore and stroke engine rated at 23.69 drawbar hp and 29.39 belt hp. more than 15,000 of these 6,150-lb. tractors were built from 1934 to 1939. One of those 15,000 tractors found its way to sierraville, Calif., where Cashman Equipment customer mike Faretto, owner of peavine Construction in Reno, nev., purchased it from Lloyd and Joe parlanti in 2001. a long-time collector of antique tractors, Faretto wanted to fix up the Cat model twenty-two so he could thrill his grandkids with a ride on an old Cat tractor at his Yerington, nev., farm. Faretto brought the machine to Cashman’s Reno service shop and tasked the technicians with restoring the Cat twenty-two to its former glory. Experienced Reno main shop lead technician Frank Williams took charge of the project. although the 1936 Cat twenty-two track-type tractor was in very good condition for its age, it was still eight decades old. Williams began disassembling the machine and made some minor repairs. many of the parts he needed were discontinued, but a few

were located through Cashman’s parts department — gauges, control handles, gaskets, etc. a basic carburetor kit was also found online, but Williams had to have a brand new diaphragm made for the 80-year-old fuel pump. the next steps involved draining the engine oil, removing the valve cover, and washing the slightly rusty engine interi-

or with solvent. unfortunately, at this point, it was discovered that the bottom of the fuel tank had rusted away and had little hope of replacement — at least not a cost-effective one. not daunted in the least, however, Williams used the auxiliary fuel tank that was actually part of the original fuel tank, see CASHMAN page 22

With the first half of the customer’s wish complete, now it was time to make the tractor look as good as it sounded.

Tunnel Extension to Protect Motorists From Falling Rocks TUNNEL from page 1

for better visibility, Ragonese added. Storm water safety also is part of the project. Storm water quality improvements are being made in an area about one mile north of Cave Rock at Milepost 8.4 through Milepost 11.4. Improvements include paved shoulders, new drop inlets, new sediment filtration systems, slope scaling and barrier rail. Work on the tunnel and storm water improvements began in May of this year and is on schedule to conclude this fall. Q & D Construction Inc. of Sparks, Nev., is contractor for the project. Kurt Matzoll serves as project manager of Q & D Construction and John Angel is construction manager of the Nevada Department of Transportation. Major subcontractors of the project include Nevada Barricade & Sign Co. of Sparks, Nev.; SAK Construction of Sumner, Wash.; Titan Electric of Reno, Nev.; and CMC Rebar of Las Vegas, Nev. Between 25 and 30 workers are on the Cave Rock job site each day.

Infrastructure for electrical improvements is ongoing, as well as drainage drop inlet installations, ditch and channel linings and pipe repairs.

Work Moves Along The last concrete pour for the superstructure was completed July 14. Removal of false work and forms has begun. Additional prep work for the decorative finish also has begun. Infrastructure for electrical improvements is ongoing, as well as drainage drop inlet installations, ditch and channel linings and pipe repairs. Grading for barrier rail and curbs and gutters also is ongoing. Heavy equipment is on site, including a crane, concrete trucks, a concrete pump, fork lift, excavators, wheel loaders, man lifts and semi-trucks.

The extension will protect motorists and bicyclists by catching falling rocks, while blending in with the natural surroundings. Colors, patterns and textures of the structure will match the adjacent rock faces.

The project requires placement of more than 3,000 tons (2,721.5 t) of plant mix. Plant mix is a mixture of aggregate and asphalt cement or liquid asphalt, prepared in a central or traveling mechanical mixer. The tunnel extension structure requires more than 180,000 lbs. (81,646.6 kg) of rebar; 1,200 lbs. (544.3 kg) of dowels inserted into the rock; and more than 580 cu. yds. (443.4 cu m) of concrete. More than 280 sq. yds. (234.1 sq m) of 12in. (30.5 cm) sculpted concrete also will be used.

During the winter of 2015, heavy rains loosened boulders from the rock face above the U.S. 50 Cave Rock tunnel with some of the boulders reaching the roadway.

Safety Improvements Crews will pave the median ditch south of Cave Rock from the tunnels to the boat launch entrance and will mill and overlay travel lanes near the tunnel extension. Workers will remove and replace existing road signs near Cave Rock. Also, they will install two new overhead signs,

one on each side of Cave Rock, approximately 500 ft. (152.4 m) ahead of each tunnel with flashing orange warning lights and LED messages. The signs will remain dark unless activated by ice or bicycles in the tunnel. Orange flashing lights will activate a sign that reads “Ice in Tunnel,” when temperatures are low enough to cause the buildup of ice within the tunnels. Bicycles passing through the tunnel will activate a sign that reads “Bicycles in the Tunnel.” Low lumen LED lights are being added to the left and right sides of the inside of both tunnels. The lighting will offer motorists and bicycle riders guidance through the tunnels and aid in increasing visibility of bicycles as they pass through the tunnels. see TUNNEL page 27

Rock Solid’s Fleet Benefits From FAE Attachments The operator prepares to demonstrate the FAE STCH-250 rock crusher and MTH-225 attachments.

The operator demonstrates the FAE STCH-250 rock crusher.

With almost 4 million miles of road, the United States has one of the most extensive infrastructure networks on earth. Building and maintaining the system can be demanding and nerve-racking, especially with an ever-growing population. Local governments and state authorities rely on the work of highly skilled contractors to construct and maintain roads, highways and other thoroughfares. Enter Rock Solid Stabilization Inc., based in Ringwood, Ill. According to the company, it is one of the leading stabilization and full-depth asphalt reclamation contractors in North America. Cities, counties, local DOTs and private contractors call on Rock Solid to bring their projects in on time and under budget. The company performs full-depth reclamation, which consists of breaking up older asphalt while mixing it with

the soil beneath and adding a stabilizing agent in order to create a better base for the new road. Fulldepth reclamation is highly effective because it eliminates the need to break up old asphalt and haul it away. This is the most environmentally friendly technique that

does not sacrifice production. Rock Solid’s extensive fleet of reclaimers and stabilizers were getting the job done, but were having issues that needed to be addressed. Jonathan Pease, president of Rock Solid, reached out to FAE USA, in order to tackle his company’s prob-

lems. FAE, with its North American headquarters in Flowery Branch, Ga., has been offering solutions to the full-depth reclamation and stabilization industries for more than 25 years. All FAE reclaimers and stabilizers are tractor driven (PTO with a creeper gear) and are the only attachments capable of pulverizing any rock while in operation, according to the company. Using a tractor as a power source, Rock Solid can now stabilize and reclaim around tight corners, trees and obstacles. This increases productivity and decreases operating costs. “With the FAE units we are experiencing great gradation of the blended material. In the rocky conditions we experience, we are having no damage from the terrain, as the MTH is designed to crush rocks while stabilizing.” said

Pease. FAE reclaimers and stabilizers are mounted to the tractor via the three-point hitch and allow for complete reclamation/stabilization. Larger, self-propelled units have a mid-mounted drum, and cannot stabilize between the drum and the tires when reaching a tight spot. Due to the tractor’s capabilities, transportation and permit costs go down, as the tractor can be driven on-road project to project. Rock Solid purchased a FAE STCH-250 rock crusher and a MTH-225 rock crusher, stabilizer and reclaimer. The STCH-225 is being used as a rock-crushing machine to break up large rocks before using the dedicated self propelled reclaimer/soil stabilizer. This crushing process allows the bigger self-propelled machine to operate more efficiently. The see FAE page 16

FAE Attachments Allow for Reclamation, Stabilization FAE from page 15

STCH has a working width of 100 in. (254 cm) at a max depth of 10 in. (25 cm). The MTH-225 is FAE’s flagship construction attachment and is able to perform rock milling, wet/dry stabilization and full depth reclamation. With its 91 in. (231 cm) working width and 20 in. (51 cm) max depth, the MTH-225 is the perfect solution for city/county road construction, airport runways, access roads, site preparation, parking lots, driveways, strip mining and much more. The advanced water system allows an operator to add water with or without a liquid lime/cement binding agent directly into the chamber. This is a must for heavy-duty jobs, or when the operator wants to suppress dust and keep the teeth at a cooler temperature. “We are very pleased with FAE and with all the ways to utilize the units in our various applications. We haven’t found an application yet that either unit hasn’t performed well. We are excited about the future and how we can integrate FAE products into more of the current services we preform and

to even add services around the FAE product line. This is just the beginning of a great partnership,” said Pease. Giorgio Carera, the CEO of FAE USA Inc. said, “FAE is excited about our partnership with Rock Solid. We are happy we were able to provide Rock Solid with the best and latest technology for road reclamation and soil stabilization. FAE is also pleased that Rock Solid’s purchase allows them to outperform their competition and finish their projects within their budget. As always FAE stands behind its product and will support Rock Solid throughout their future projects. With our large parts inventory, friendly support staff, and overall expertise, we help our business partners make sure their operations are profitable”.

UNTIMED POWER BOOST: STRENGTH ON YOUR SCHEDULE We know what it’s like to sit in the operator’s seat when you hit solid rock. The power boost button on most excavators can deliver the extra force you need to break through – but only in short bursts. We knew there had to be a better way, so we took our jobsite experience and collaborated with our engineers. The result is an untimed power boost that comes standard in all KOBELCO conventional excavators from the SK210LC to the SK500LC. It provides all the extra muscle you need continuously so you can power through the toughest jobs without interruption.

Cashman Equipment Restores 1936 Cat Twenty-Two to Its Former Glory

The Cat Twenty-Two tractor was painted old Cat highway yellow with contrasting black lettering for the hardnose. CASHMAN from page 10

as a fuel cell. A few plumbing modifications with the assistance of Cashman welder Ken Lee, and Williams was ready to test out the antique tractor. Hopeful, Williams and Lee primed the fuel system and got ready to crank the engine over. (Cat Twenty-Two tractors didn’t have a distributor, but rather a magneto driven by the front gear train, which created the spark of electricity to ignite the fuel in the cylinders via spark plugs.) As they began cranking it over, Williams and Lee were thrilled to hear it fire right up. Williams and Lee drove the 80-year-old tractor around the yard a bit and then right over to the sandblasting booth. With the first half of the customer’s wish complete, now it was time to make the tractor look as good as it sounded. After sandblasting the undercarriage and some other take-off parts, the Cat Twenty-Two tractor was painted old Cat highway yellow with contrasting black lettering for the hardnose. With the machine looking as fine as it did 80 years ago, Cashman’s product support manager Lance Pecetti; sales manager Mike Brenner; service manager Andy Butts; and product support sales representative Lyle Kibbe welcomed Faretto back to Cashman for the machine presentation. Faretto and Curtis Newmeyer, Peavine Construction Equipment superintendent, walked into the paint booth to examine the Cat Twenty-Two. As soon as Faretto saw it, his face lit up and he said, “It looks brand new.” With that high compliment to Williams’s amazing rebuild, Pecetti and Faretto began reminiscing about machines gone

by and the good old days as they stood over a genuine piece of our industry’s history. Cashman Equipment could not have achieved 85 years of success without employees like Williams and Lee. The company is grateful to them for restoring this piece of equipment. Cat Model Twenty-Two Notes The Twenty-Two was a versatile machine, as it was paired with a wide variety of other equipment depending on the job at hand. Most notably, the tractor was available as an orchard model, with fenders mounted over the tracks to keep branches out of the tracks as the tractor moved through the orchards. On a farm it would have been paired with a 12 to 15-ft. (3.7 to 4.6 m) engine driven combine; three or four plow bottoms; one 10-ft. (3 m) disc harrow; a mower; or 20 ft. (6 m) of grain drills. In logging or industry applications, it would have been able to handle small wagons, sleighs, logging winches or oilfield winches. For construction and roadwork, it would have been paired with the Caterpillar No. 22 blade grader; No. 22 terracer; No. 4 Hi-Way Patrol; or No. 1 terracer. It also could have been paired with .5 yd. (.46 m) rollover scrapers or small bulldozers built by other manufacturers. For more information, visit www.cashmanequipment.com.

Hawaiian Dredging Company Takes Delivery of ZX870LC-6 Hawaiian Dredging Construction Company (HDCC) selected a Hitachi ZX870LC-6 to join its fleet of excavators. The new production-sized excavator joined numerous other Hitachi machines in the fleet and is the company’s second largest excavator. According to David Gomez, equipment manager at HDCC, the ZX870LC-6 was chosen after much consideration and multiple inspections of other machines in its class. The ZX870LC-6 will play a pivotal role in the company’s civil construction projects. “We currently own an eight year old 125-ton excavator and we were looking for a replacement excavator smaller than the 125-ton but larger than our 50-ton units” said Gomez. “We tested the Hitachi and a few other brands and based on what we saw, the Hitachi machine really stood out. The pricing was favorable. It had more horsepower, a longer boom arm and a greater digging force. We’ve also had really good experiences with our local Hitachi dealer in terms of servicing and parts availability.” The machine’s size was an important factor in the purchase decision, too.

“After going through our DOT current weight requirements, we learned that we could transport the machine without taking the tracks off,” said Gomez. “This would make the machine mobile and would definitely optimize uptime equipment utilization.” Since its delivery to Maui, the new ZX870LC-6 has been put to work on an airport access road project to load dirt into articulated dump trucks. HDCC will utilize it again later this year for the construction of a 2.7-mi. (4.3 km) bypass south of Lahaina in Maui. HDCC is one of Hawaii’s largest contractors. It was founded in 1902 and provides complete services of preconstruction, general construction, design-build and design assist.Hawaiian Dredging Construction Company Inc. is serviced by American Machinery in Kapolei, Hawaii.

we’ve got you covered. Run stronger. Run with confidence.

Project Follows Dangerous Rock Fall During the winter of 2015, heavy rains loosened boulders from the rock face above the U.S. 50 Cave Rock tunnel with some of the boulders reaching the roadway. Project Traffic Control Began Last Spring Traffic control on U.S. 50 near Cave Rock began in May of this year. Travel speeds are reduced to 25 mi. (40.2 km) per hour and the roadway is reduced to a single lane in both directions. Both directions of traffic are using the eastbound Cave Rock Tunnel simultaneously. Traffic north of Cave Rock will continue to be reduced to one lane in the eastbound direction with short-duration, westbound one-lane closures to allow for construction of storm water control improvements. To ensure a safe work zone, the Nevada Department of Transportation has restricted oversize loads from the Cave Rock tunnels for the duration of the summer. The ceiling height through the eastbound tunnel is much lower than on a standard roadway. Boats and trailers that are not considered over-sized will be allowed through the Cave Rock work zone. Boats and trailers must be less than 8 ft. 6 in. (2.6 m) wide and under 14 ft. 6 in. (4.4 m) tall. Construction-related travel delays have been minimal on average weekdays, but slowing has increased in peak periods like weekends and holidays. Lighting System Could Pose Possible Delay Although the project has been moving along smoothly, lighting for the tunnel site could pose a possible delay. The lighting system specified in the contract documents is no longer manufactured, so a new alternative system had to be found. It will cost an additional $100,000. The time delay to get the lights in has yet to be determined. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s website at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG
