$12M Project Expands NM 47, Improves Safety

By Lori Lovely CEG CORRESPONDENT

ODOT Teaches Students About Construction Careers...12

In February, the New Mexico Department of Transportation and AUI Inc., the project contractor, began reconstruction of the NM 47 Peralta roadway corridor from milepost 31.0 to 32.8 through the town of Peralta.

The 1.8-mi. (2.9 km) stretch of highway offered motorists two lanes in each direction, but the new configuration will be expanded to include two northbound and two southbound lanes, with a center turn lane and seven raised medians at intersections identified as high crash areas, according to Bernadette Bell, public relations officer of NMDOT District Three.

The $12.1 million roadway reconstruction project also includes utility work, new pavement cross-section, curbs and see IMPROVEMENTS page 32

Auctioneers Incorporated and IronPlanet have jointly announced that they have entered into an agreement under which Ritchie Bros. will acquire IronPlanet for approximately $758.5 million, subject to customary closing adjustments. The deal is expected to be finalized in the first half of 2017.

Following the announcement, Ravi Saligram, CEO of Ritchie Bros., and Gregory J. Owens, chairman and CEO

of IronPlanet, spoke to Construction Equipment Guide (CEG) about what the future holds.

A Change in IronPlanet’s Plans Despite early indications that IronPlanet was to eventually go public, the company decided that the Ritchie Bros. plan was more desirable and a better investment for IronPlanet see ACQUISITION page 80

Two States Battle...

Facebook Chooses New Mexico Over Utah for Data Center

By Lindsay Whitehurst and Susan Montoya Bryan AssociAted Press

ALBUQUerQUe, N.M. Facebook has chosen a village on the edge of New Mexico’s largest metropolitan area as the location for its new data center, an announcement that spread quickly as elected officials celebrated a hard-fought win that could have ripple effects for the state’s struggling economy.

News of the social media giant’s decision to build in Los

Lunas, just south of Albuquerque, comes after a roller-coaster contest between New Mexico and Utah to attract the facility. the courting of Facebook began more than a year ago with a meeting between republican Gov. susana Martinez and Facebook executives. during a visit to california, Martinez and her economic development team pitched the sparsely populated state as a good place to do business.

New Mexico wasn’t on the radar before that August 2015

meeting.

“With the improvements we’ve made over the past several years, New Mexico is finally competing again, and in this case, it’s a big win for the people of our state and our economic future,” the governor said.

While the project has enjoyed broad political support in New Mexico, local leaders in Utah pushed back against a tax-incentive plan they saw as too generous.

Utah supporters said the project would bring a high-tech cachet that could draw other companies to West Jordan, but critics said the cost was too high for land that could attract other development. the village of Los Lunas, meanwhile, agreed to give up all property taxes for 30 years in exchange for annual payments from Facebook that start at $50,000 and top out at less than $500,000. the complex economic development agreement also involves tax breaks on billions of dollars in computer equipment over time. in Utah, an initial $240 million tax-break plan publicly fell apart after several leaders said the lure was too rich. despite talks being revived, Utah Gov. Gary Herbert later said the deal looked dormant, if not dead.

West Jordan Mayor Kim rolfe said he’s disappointed his city wasn’t chosen and the tax-break package was unfairly maligned. the billion-dollar project would have been an economic boon, he said.

A critic of the Utah plan, salt Lake county Mayor Ben McAdams, said the cost to taxpayers was too steep.

“We will walk away from a bad deal. We’re not so desperate that we’re willing to give everything away,” he said. the cost-benefit analysis is different for New Mexico, he said.

New Mexico officials have appeared eager to please Facebook after the state was hit hard by a downturn in the oil and natural gas sectors. computer chip maker intel, meanwhile, has been steadily unwinding a major manufacturing plant that was an early beneficiary of similar property tax breaks using industrial revenue bonds.

Los Lunas economic development director ralph Mims dismissed criticisms of the package state and local officials created to woo Facebook to New Mexico. “if you want to bring business in, you have to offer incentives,” Mims said. “this is the biggest thing since intel and you have to look at the economic development spillover. it’s not just about the data center.” data centers are key to the booming cloud-computing economy, but they typically bring few local jobs. officials hope Facebook construction will spill over into other parts of the economy, including three industrial-scale solar power plants that would be built to offset electricity consumed by the data center.

Los Lunas officials have said the center would be a $1.8 billion construction project creating 300 direct temporary jobs and just 50 permanent jobs. construction is expected to start next month, with the center coming online in late 2018.

Whitehurst reported from salt Lake city, Utah.

Government Study Concludes...

$57M Project to Help Endangered Fish Might Not Work

By Matthew Brown ASSOCIATED PRESS

BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) A government-commissioned study concluded there’s substantial risk that a $57 million dam and fish bypass proposed on the Yellowstone River won’t meet its goal of helping an ancient, endangered fish species.

An independent panel of scientists and engineers conducted the peer-review study for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

They said the agency provided no evidence the proposed bypass near the Montana-North Dakota border would help pallid sturgeon reach upstream spawning grounds.

The dinosaur-like fish for decades have been prevented from moving upstream by a rock weir called the Intake Diversion Dam. The weir is a porous, rock structure that diverts water for an irrigation system serving more than 50,000

acres of cropland in eastern Montana and western North Dakota.

Officials with the Army Corps and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation contend that replacing the weir with a concrete dam would ensure area farmers can keep getting water, while the rock-lined bypass channel would help sturgeon get around the structure.

Army Corps project manager Tiffany Vanosdall said the report has not swayed agency officials who back the dam and bypass channel.

She said the agency will provide members of the panel with additional research, including details on fish passages elsewhere that have been used successfully for species protection.

The panel’s report “helped us understand some more of the information we needed to provide,” Vanosdall said.

The independent panel said after reviewing the proposal that it relies on untested assumptions and there’s no way to know if it would work.

“There is no evidence that the behavior of adult fish can be manipulated to attract them to the bypass channel, that they would be motivated to swim upstream through the bypass channel, or that they would navigate upstream through the proposed bypass channel,” panel members said in the 74page report.

The panelists also questioned whether the helpless, newly born larvae of any pallid sturgeon that got through the bypass would survive as they drifted back downstream and over the dam.

Wayne Hubert, a fisheries consultant from Wyoming and member of the peer-review panel, said the group performed the work under a confidentiality agreement that bars its member from com-

menting publicly on their findings.

Pallid sturgeon are known for a distinctive, long snout and can live 50 years, reaching 6 ft. (1.8 m) in length. Believed to date to the days when Tyrannosaurus Rex walked the Earth, the population declined sharply during the past century as dams were built along the Missouri River system. They were listed as an endangered species in 1990.

U.S. District Judge Brian Morris blocked construction of the dam and bypass just as it was set to begin last year. The judge intervened after Defenders of Wildlife and the Natural Resources Defense Council sued to stop the project.

The two groups have proposed installing pumps and other equipment to deliver irrigation water to area farmers as an alternative to the irrigation dam and fish bypass.

A group of government biologists said recently that removing the weir and letting the

Yellowstone flow freely is the best way to help pallid sturgeon avoid extinction.

Sturgeon inhabiting the lower Yellowstone have been essentially trapped downstream of the rock weir since it was built in 1905. At least one female fish managed to swim around the structure during high water in 2014, but that was considered a rare occurrence.

Removing the weir would open up 165 river mi. (265.5 km) for sturgeon to spawn upstream.

David Brooks of Montana Trout Unlimited said such a move represents the most viable option for saving the sturgeon.

“The evidence that the [Army Corps] has put forth to support the bypass channel alternative is completely theoretical,” Brooks said.

ODOT Bridges Gap Between Students, Construction Industry High school students recently learned more about future career opportunities in the construction industry by getting hands-on experience with industry experts.

The Oklahoma Department of Transportation Civil Rights Division, in partnership with several industry leaders, hosted a Construction Career Day for students in the Oklahoma City metro area in an effort to bridge the gap between students and the construction industry.

This year’s 15th annual Construction Career Day, called “Tools to Build Your Future” offered hands-on activities with construction equipment and opportunities for more than 260 high school students to talk with industry leaders about jobs in construction-related fields.

This year’s event included more than 35 construction companies, materials suppliers and industry partners. Students from Oklahoma City Public Schools and a local technology center attended the event held at the Oklahoma State University – OKC campus.

Students were able to operate machinery; climb electrical poles; try their hand at virtual welding; and visit with industry leaders in construction and engineering.

The construction industry is facing a

The event offered hands-on activities with equipment and opportunities for students to talk about jobs in construction-related fields.

severe shortage of skilled workers. If not addressed, the shortage will impact the industry’s quality, safety and ability to build

the infrastructure needed to meet the demands of a growing population. While many students may not have ever considered

a career in construction, the industry offers competitive wages and a variety of employment opportunities for high school graduates.

“This event has been a huge success due to all our industry partners, the Oklahoma City public school system and all the volunteers,” Jenny Allen, ODOT Civil Rights Division Manager, said. “The event offers the chance to educate students about opportunities in the transportation and construction industry and helps with employment skills while underscoring the importance of furthering their education.”

The students are specifically selected by their instructors because of their interest in construction. Students wishing to attend the event next year should talk with their teachers and reach out to the ODOT Civil Rights Division 405-521-3186.

This event was sponsored by ODOT, OSU – OKC, OKC Public Schools, Association of Oklahoma General Contractors – Heavy Highway, AGC – Building Chapter, Oklahoma Asphalt Pavement Association and the Oklahoma Concrete Pavement Association.

Work Progresses on $2.1B CPMC Project

By Chuck Harvey CEG CORRESPONDENT

A $2.1 billion 740,000 sq. ft. (68,748 sq m) acute-care hospital and a $168 million 253,000 sq. ft. (23,504 sq m) medical office building are being constructed at California Pacific Medical Center’s Van Ness and Geary campus in San Francisco.

The two buildings are adjacent and will be connected by an underground pedestrian walkway under Van Ness Avenue.

The sustainably-designed 12-story hospital will hold 274 patient beds and feature women’s, children’s, cardiology, oncology, emergency care and transplant departments.

The medical office building will stand nine stories tall and will accommodate outpatient services and support the medical staff next door.

The project includes 376,000 sq. ft. (34,931.5 sq m) of underground parking space. see HOSPITAL page 22

Californians to Vote on $9B Prop 51 The California Public School Facility Bonds Initiative, also known as Proposition 51, will be on the Nov. 8, 2016, ballot in California as an initiated state statute.

• A “yes” vote supports the state issuing $9 billion in bonds to fund improvement and construction of school facilities for K-12 schools and community colleges.

• A “no” vote opposes the state issuing $9 billion in new debt to fund the improvement and construction of education facilities.

Bond Money Purposes The proceeds from the $9 billion in bonds that would be issued if voters approved Proposition 51 would be stored in a 2016 State School Facilities Fund and a 2016 California Community College Capital Outlay Bond Fund.

Proceeds would be allocated for the following purposes: • $3 billion for the construction of new school facilities • $500 million for providing school

facilities for charter schools • $3 billion for the modernization of school facilities • $500 million for providing facilities for career technical education programs • $2 billion for acquiring, constructing, renovating, and equipping community college facilities.

Total Cost of the Bonds The state’s legislative analyst estimated that the $9 billion in bonds would cost $17.6 billion to repay. The fiscal impact statement estimated $8.6 billion in interest. The statement also stated that the bonds would cost the state approximately $500 million per year.

Background Since 1914, 42 education-related bond measures have appeared on the ballot in California, and all of them were legislatively-referred. In 2014, legislators tried to place a legislatively-referred bond act that called for $9 billion for school maintenance and construction on

the ballot. The legislation passed the California State Assembly, but Gov. Jerry Brown opposed it before it could pass the California State Senate, and so it did not qualify for the 2014 ballot. The California Public School Facility Bond Initiative will be the first educationrelated bond measure to appear on the ballot since 2006, and it is the first ever education-related bond measure that was citizen initiated.

Ballot Title The ballot title is: School Bonds — Funding for K-12 School and Community College Facilities Initiative Statute.

Ballot Summary The long-form ballot summary is as follows: • Authorizes $9 billion in general obligation bonds: $3 billion for new construction and $3 billion for modernization of K-12 public school facilities; $1 billion for charter schools and vocasee VOTERS page 23

Golden 1 Center Earns LEED Platinum Designation The United States Green Building Council (USGBC) certified Golden 1 Center, the new downtown home of the Sacramento Kings, as LEED Platinum — the highest level of global recognition for environmentally conscious buildings and organizations.

The Sacramento Kings commitment to power the arena entirely with solar energy, in addition to its resource conservation, transportation planning and green design led Golden 1 Center to be the first indoor venue in the world to receive the LEED Platinum certification. Unlike most LEED Certified buildings, Golden 1 Center will demonstrate environmental leadership to an estimated 1.2 million visitors each year at over 200 events.

“Our hope in creating Golden 1 Center was to help drive meaningful change in our community — which includes working to curb climate change and promote renewable energy,” said Vivek Ranadivé, Kings owner and chairman.

“Businesses, including large sports franchises, have a core responsibility to help facilitate the world’s clean energy transition so that we can better protect the health and environment of future generations. The 1.2 million people who will pass through our doors each year will see first hand how adopting the best sustainability practices can improve the fan experience.”

To achieve the highest LEED certification, projects must earn more than 80 points on a scale that evaluates energy management, water efficiency, environmental quality, transportation, materials utilized and more. Golden 1 Center earned enough points to receive platinum designation — placing it in the top three percent of all buildings certified and the highest total for any sports facility in the world.

“California has more green buildings than any other state in the nation and Sacramento’s new arena is an example of the elegant design and construction we need to meet our ambitious climate goals,” said Gov. Jerry Brown.

Golden 1 Center will achieve many firsts in sports facility design. Working alongside architect AECOM, the Sacramento Kings focused on creating never-before-seen sustainability features that take advantage of Sacramento’s resources. The arena will be the first in the world to combine

the use of displacement ventilation — a reduced-energy cooling system utilizing passive climate controlled air — and crowd sourced feedback to maximize fan comfort. Five massive hangar doors above the grand entrance will open and allow the arena to use natural cooling phenomenon in Sacramento — The Delta Breeze — to control the building’s climate efficiently. With over 300 days of sunshine in Sacramento, the arena’s urban-smart energy system — with a specially designed 1.2 megawatt solar array on the arena roof and an 11 megawatt solar farm 40 mi. (64.4 km) away through a SMUD partnership — provides a creative solution for generating the power for the venue’s over 200 events all year long.

A thirteen-month environmental impact analysis of Golden 1 Center’s site found the Sacramento Kings decision to move the arena downtown will reduce average miles traveled per attendee by 20 percent, cut overall air emissions by 24 percent, and reduce travel-related greenhouse gas emissions per attendee by 36 percent by 2020. In total, the Sacramento Kings’ architectural choices are estimated to keep nearly 2,000 tons (1,814 t) of greenhouse gas emissions annually out of the atmosphere — equivalent to emissions from approximately 4 million vehicle mi. (6.6 million km).

“We worked with the Kings to design Golden 1 Center for fans, city and planet,” said Bill Hanway, AECOM’s global sports leader. “Our architects, sports designers, sustainability experts, engineers, urban planners and landscape architects worked together from the beginning to shape an indoor-outdoor arena that is revitalizing downtown Sacramento and setting a new global standard for sustainability.”

In the past year, the Sacramento Kings have announced a series of unprecedented commitments to sustainability, including a “Farm-to-Court” plan to source ninety percent of Golden 1 Center’s concessions from local businesses and farms within 150 mi. (241.4 km) of the arena, recycling athletic shoes to create a new resilient court, and partnering with industry leaders like the Green Sports Alliance. They also are working with leaders in food sustainability like Californiabased Sierra Nevada brewery, to provide locally brewed beer and create a green education curriculum for local students.

Other key sustainability statistics for Golden 1 Center include: • First professional sports venue to be completely powered by solar energy • Water conservation resulting in a 45 percent reduction in use over stringent California code • 30 percent reduction in energy use over the stringent California Title 24 code requirements • 2,000 fewer tons of annual carbon emissions • 99 percent of demolition materials recycled • 95 percent of construction waste diverted • 36 percent of construction materials from recycled sources • 30 percent of construction materials from regional sources • 90 percent of food and beverage concessions sourced from within 150 mi.

• First venue to crowd source feedback to maximize fan comfort and reduce energy consumption.

Board Approves Contract for Van Ness Improvement Project The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) Board of Directors approved a contract amendment that will allow the Van Ness Improvement Project to take the next step towards starting work on the project this fall. This action extends the current contract between the agency and Walsh Construction.

“This is another important step in improving our transportation network for everyone,” said Tom Nolan, chairman of the SFMTA Board of Directors. “This project is an essential bus rapid transit option for customers that will create raillike service on a major corridor in the city.”

“This project is a critical step in

realizing our goals of improving transportation from the ground up,” said Ed Reiskin, SFMTA director of transportation. “Van Ness will see better transit, safer streets and strengthened infrastructure that will improve the transportation network and keep our city in a state of good repair.”

The Van Ness Improvement Project is a major civic improvement project on Van Ness Avenue from Aquatic Park to Mission Street and according to SFMTA documents, will cost $316.4 million. The anticipated three-year construction schedule will include transportation upgrades like San Francisco’s first Bus Rapid Transit system, a globally proven solution

to address traffic congestion and transit reliability. The project is expected to cut travel times for the 49 and 47 Muni routes by 32 percent saving Muni customers an estimated 1,887 hours of travel time every day.

The project also will include enhanced traffic signals optimized for north-south traffic with Transit Signal Priority that keep buses moving by extending a green light and high quality boarding islands at consolidated transit stops located at key transfer points. These features will complement the quicker boarding already brought by Muni’s system-wide all-door boarding policy and new low-floor buses.

The project also includes replacing the aging water and sewer lines beneath Van Ness. These networks are more than 100 years old and were not built to withstand a major earthquake, nor the impacts of climate change such as intense rainstorms.

Safety enhancements that support the agency’s Vision Zero policy to end all severe traffic injuries and fatalities by 2024 also will be installed along the corridor. These will include protected median refuges, Accessible Pedestrian Signals, high-visibility zebrastriped crosswalks, and sidewalk extensions that shorten crossing distances for people walking. For the first time on Van Ness, side-

walk lighting will be installed, making it safer for people to walk at night.

With the new contract in place, construction is expected to start this November, with revenue service beginning in late 2019.

Funding for the core Van Ness BRT project comes from a variety of sources including FTA Small Starts, San Francisco Prop K funds through the San Francisco County Transportation Authority, and developer contributions.

Custom Dredge From DSC Keeps Santa Cruz Harbor Clear The winter of 2016 was an unusually harsh one for the Santa Cruz Small Craft Harbor in Santa Cruz, Calif. Four years of drought was followed by an El Niño season that brought storm water runoff, high tides, high surf and swells — rapidly creating a complete shoaling of the federal entrance channel to the harbor and blocking all boats from entering or leaving. The dredge “Seabright” that had served the harbor for 30 years labored to keep up, and frequent breakdowns only compounded the problem.

Fortunately for the harbor members and visitors, a new dredge from DSC Dredge LLC — the “Twin Lakes” — was scheduled for delivery in June.

“In the Santa Cruz Harbor, the inlet can sand in with just one storm, closing off the harbor and creating the worst conditions imaginable for dredging,” said Charles Johnson, director of domestic sales for Reserve, La.-based DSC Dredge. “The channel should have a depth of 20 feet at low tide. There were times this winter when the depth was only a foot or foot-and-a-half. The Seabright, which also was built by DSC 30 years ago, was struggling to keep the channel clear, but it really was at the end of its useful life.”

Winter shoaling has been an issue for the harbor since it was dedicated in 1964. It resides in an area of the California coastline where there are no natural features to protect a deep entrance. For a number of years, the harbor relied on contract dredging supported by the federal government and the Port District. With uncertainties surrounding funding each year, the District began setting aside money to help purchase a dredge for

A new dredge from DSC Dredge LLC — the “Twin Lakes” — was delivered to the Santa Cruz Harbor in June.

the harbor. Sharing the cost of a new dredge with the federal government, the District took delivery of the Seabright in 1986.

The Twin Lakes, commissioned from DSC in April 2015, was christened on July 20 this year. It is a custom-built, 16 by 16 ft.

(4.8 by 4.8 m) dredge with a hull-mounted pump. It features a PLC operating system with color touch-screen controls, Global Positioning System (GPS), electro-proportional hydraulic circuits, high-capacity service water system and an inline direct marinestyle transmission for dredge pump gear ratio reduction. A planetary winch provides the swing operation. A magnetic flow meter shows the operator the velocity of the mate-

rial being moved, providing information on the dredge’s efficiency. With two engines — a Caterpillar C32 dredge pump marine diesel engine and a Caterpillar C18 marine dieselpowered electric generator — the dredge fully complies with federal EPA and California CARB environmental standards.

“With the launch of the Twin Lakes in June, the harbor members will now have a much easier time with winter storms. In addition, because dredged sand is pumped from the harbor to nearby Twin Lakes State Beach, the area beaches benefit from the provision of fresh sand,” noted Johnson.

Dredging at the harbor typically begins in November and concludes in March or April.

The Seabright, which had never left the Santa Cruz Harbor during its 30 years of service, was sold on Craigslist to a Palo Alto company for $5,000.

DSC Dredge LLC advances the engineering, automation, manufacturing and quality of cutter suction and underwater pump mining dredges. The company operates from three major manufacturing facilities located in Reserve, La.; Poplarville, Miss.; and Greenbush, Mich.

This is the largest contract secured by Balfour Beatty in the United States.

The Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board awarded the contract to Balfour Beatty as part of the Caltrain Peninsula Corridor Electrification Project. The electrification of the line will bring cleaner, high performance electric vehicles to Caltrain’s fleet allowing for a more frequent service. Reliability

and capacity of the rail service, which operates through 17 U.S. cities across San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara counties, also will be enhanced.

“Our extensive experience in managing complex rail projects leaves us well qualified to deliver this significant scheme,” said Leo Quinn, Balfour Beatty Group chief executive. “Caltrain builds on the back of the recent successful delivery of our part in the multi-billion dollar Eagle P3 Commuter Rail network in Denver, Colo.

“We are pleased our unique capability has been recognized with this award which contributes to our strategy to increase our design-build rail market share

struct two traction power substations, one switching substation and seven paralleling substations. With minimal disruption to the 92 daily Caltrain trains serving more than 65,000 commuters daily, the company also will replace signal systems and earth existing facilities as part of the process to electrify the 52 mi. of existing corridor.

The project is due to start this fall with completion expected in spring 2020. A workforce of more than 300 will be employed at project peak which will include 50 A diesel Caltrain locomotive currently operating on the San apprentice opportunities.

The U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Transit Administration (FTA) announced a $1.04 billion federal grant agreement with the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) to extend existing Blue Line Trolley service from downtown San Diego to the growing University City area. The extension will improve access to employment hubs and numerous educational and medical facilities north of downtown, making it easier for people to travel throughout the city.

Carolyn Flowers, FTA acting administrator made the announcement to commit the funds during a ceremony with representatives from SANDAG and the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS), which will operate the service once it is built.

“The Obama Administration is committed to investing in transportation projects that improve mobility and provide ladders of opportunity for residents,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx.

“San Diego’s Trolley extension will do just that by helping thousands of transit riders to access employment, education, healthcare and other important services.”

The 10.92-mi. (17.57 km) light rail extension, referred to locally as the Mid-Coast Trolley, will serve major activity centers such as Old Town, Mission Bay Park, the Department of Veteran’s Affairs Medical Center, UC San Diego and the Westfield UTC shopping center. Officials estimate the

project will serve 24,600 transit trips every weekday, with service anticipated to start in 2021.

“FTA is proud to partner with San Diego to bring new transit options to this growing region,” said Flowers. “With the population along the Mid-Coast corridor expected to grow nearly 20 percent in the coming decades, this trolley extension will offer a much-needed alternative to traffic congestion in the years ahead.”

With the signing of the federal grant agreement, FTA is committing a total of $1.04 billion through its Capital Investment Grant (CIG) Program to the $2.17 billion Mid-Coast Corridor Transit Project. In addition to the $100 million that will be awarded with the signing of the grant agreement today, the remaining federal funds will be provided over the course of 10 years on an annual payment schedule, subject to Congressional approval during the annual appropriations process.

The CIG Program is the nation’s primary grant program for funding major transit capital investments. Projects accepted into the highly competitive program must go through a multi-year, multi-step process according to requirements in law in order to be eligible for and receive program funds.

A $2.1 billion 740,000 sq. ft. (68,748 sq m) acute-care hospital and a $168 million 253,000 sq. ft.

(23,504 sq m) medical office building are being constructed at California Medical Center’s Van Ness and Geary campus in San Francisco.

Sub-phases include entitlements and design, mobilization and demolition, excavation and shoring, construction of the Van Ness tunnel walkway, structural systems, exterior skin system and interior finishes.

Hospital, Medical Office Building Coming to San Francisco HOSPITAL from page 15

Both medical buildings are LEED certified, which means they are resource efficient. In addition, California Pacific Medical Center engineers incorporate technology that that helps minimize impacts from a major earthquake.

The contractor for the new hospital is HerreroBoldt, a partnership of Herrero Builders of San Francisco and The Boldt Company based in Appleton, Wis. HerreroBoldt was selected as the best value through the request for proposal process.

Sutter Health of Sacramento is developer for the hospital. Dean Fryer, media relations manager at Sutter Health’s California Pacific Medical Center, described the new Van Ness and Geary campus as an ideal location.

“The new Sutter Health-CPMC hospital campus is centrally located in San Francisco at the intersection of two major transportation arteries,” Fryer said. “This central location allows easy access for patients and provides us the ability to serve the highest percentage of families living in the city. The location also provides convenient access to our specialized medical care for patients across the wider Bay Area region.”

Pankow Builders of Pasadena, Calif., is contractor of the medical office building. San Diego-based Pacific Medical Buildings is developer.

More than 40 subcontractors are on the job.

Top subcontractors include: SmithGroupJJR (architect) based in Detroit; California Drywall of San Jose, Calif.; GFE Norcal of Novato, Calif.; Harrison Drywall

of San Francisco; and Rosendin Electric of San Jose, Calif.

The contractors use an integrated communications system to coordinate design and construction delivery. The system utilizes hightech software applications.

Work is Moving Along Construction of the hospital began in 2014 following demolition of the existing buildings in October 2013. Structural steel installation for the hospital was completed in December 2015.

Completion of the two structures is expected in 2019. The hospital will open to patients in the first quarter of 2019.

The contractor reports that the hospital is on schedule and at budget.

The medical office building will open for tenants in the second quarter of the same year.

Construction of the hospital will require 12,000 tons (10,886 t) of structural steel and 43,000 cu. yds.

(32,875 cu m) of concrete.

The medical office building will be constructed with 21,000 cu. yds.

(16,055 cu m) of concrete.

The demolition of the prior buildings, a 10-story, 45,000 sq. ft.

(4,181 sq m) hotel and an 11-story office building, was necessary to start the hospital and medical office building construction.

Almost all the material from the demolition was recycled.

Excavation of the site generated more than 100,000 cu. yds.

(76,455 cu m) of soil that was mostly sand. Crews removed about 10,000 truckloads of soil from the site over a four month period.

About 350 skilled union trade

Crews pour the concrete floor of the Van Ness and Geary Campus hospital.

works are on site daily for the hospital construction. The medical office building project has about 15 skilled union trade works on site.

Two tower cranes are on site for the hospital construction. Two mobile cranes are in use for shoring at the medical office building site.

One tower crane will be used for the medical office building construction.

A conveyer and hopper are being used for excavation and haul off.

Single-Phased Project The hospital was designed and will be built as a single-phased project. However it will include milestone sub-phases.

Sub-phases include entitlements and design, mobilization and demolition, excavation and shoring, construction of the Van Ness tunnel walkway, structural systems,

exterior skin system and interior finishes.

The medical office building also will be constructed in a single phase with milestone sub-phases.

SmithGroupJJR, based in Detroit designed the acute care hospital and Boulder Associates, based in Boulder, Colo., designed the medical office building.

The buildings incorporate a filtered outdoor air system, healthy building materials and water conservation.

Busy Part of San Francisco The Van Ness and Geary campus is located at one of the busiest intersections in San Francisco.

Challenges of constructing the campus include working in a busy urban environment with heavy vehicle traffic, public transportation and pedestrian activity.

The hospital covers an entire

city block and has secured temporary lane closures on all sides.

Sidewalks are closed on three sides during construction.

The general contractor constantly monitors the site and surrounding area for noise, dust and vibration. To mitigate the disruption to the neighbors, construction hours are limited to a period from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

The construction teams also communicate with neighbors regarding upcoming construction activities via a weekly construction update posted on the project Web site.

Information is provided through email communications, quarterly community meetings and a construction hotline.

Hospital Designed for Earthquake Safety The hospital is designed to be operational after a large earthquake so it can serve the public when the need for health care services is the greatest. The structural system includes the first U.S. application of earthquake technology that was perfected in Japan.

It features viscous wall dampers that reduce seismic accelerations during an earthquake. That in turn reduces overall stress on the building superstructure and infrastructure.

Viscous wall dampers replace other seismic isolators such as base isolation bearings and rubber isolators.

• Bars amendment to existing State Allocation Board process for allocating school construction funding, as to these bonds.

• Appropriates money from the General Fund to pay off bonds.

The shorter ballot label summary is as follows: Authorizes $9 billion in general obligation bonds for new construction and modernization of K-12 public school facilities; charter schools and vocational education facilities; and California Community Colleges facilities.

The long-form, official ballot summary for Proposition 51 was identical to the initial summary provided to initiative proponents for the purpose of circulating the initiative for signature collection.

Fiscal Impact Statement The fiscal impact statement for a California ballot initiative authorized for circulation is jointly prepared by the state’s legislative analyst and its director of finance.

It is estimated that it will cost the state about $17.6 billion to pay off both the principal ($9 billion) and interest ($8.6 billion) on the bonds. These payments of about $500 million per year will last for 35 years.

Plan to Lure Raiders to Vegas Passes STADIUM from page 1

to win over the governor, the Legislature and three-quarters of NFL owners to make the project a reality, but it’s a significant milestone for a city that’s never had a professional football team and has been hammering out the particulars of the Raiders deal for months.

“We get an NFL team, and that is a significant step forward for Las Vegas and the community,” committee chairman Steve Hill said about the project’s potential. “Those teams bring the community together. We’re going to have people wearing Raiders jerseys and high-fiving each other.

That’s not something you can put a number on.”

The Adelson family plans to put $650 million toward the stadium, which would also be home to UNLV football, while the Raiders plan to kick in $500 million. Officials with the Las Vegas Sands, Adelson’s company, said they don’t want to return any profits to the public because they’d be making little or no money on the stadium. They’re also committing to fund construction cost overruns and infrastructure improvements at the yet-undetermined site.

Sands representative Andy Abboud said the Adelsons were in China to open a $2.9 billion Parisian Macao casino and probably asleep when the vote came, but he texted them the news and said they’ll be excited.

“I never dreamed of or hoped for a unanimous vote,” Abboud said. “But a unanimous vote, I think, sends a very strong signal to the Legislature.”

Opponents question whether it’s appropriate to put public dollars toward a project spearheaded by one of the richest men in the world. They’re also wary of the bonds used to finance the project, which could put taxpayers on the hook to cover stadium debt in a downturn.

Hill said the deal’s structure would shield taxpayers even in a recession as deep as the most recent one, when hotel tax revenues fell 33 percent. He also addressed arguments that tax hikes should prioritize Nevada’s bottom-ranking public

school system.

“I’m not going to argue that a room tax couldn’t be used for other things,” Hill said, noting that the increase will mostly affect tourists, not locals. “I will say this is an entirely, very appropriate use for room tax.”

Stadium proponents drove a hard bargain with the committee, which included casino leaders and elected officials.

The Las Vegas Sands said they’d walk away from negotiations if the public put in less than $750 million, and the company fought to protect themselves from any future taxes targeting the team.

Public pressure mounted, too. Union members wearing Raiders gear held tailgate parties outside the committee’s meetings, and cheerleaders in silver and black flanked the entrances to the meeting. Electronic billboards along the interstate urged people to “hold politicians accountable” on the stadium deal and recommended the hashtag “Don’t Screw This Up NV.” It was unclear when Republican Gov. Brian Sandoval might call lawmakers into special session to consider the deal, although proponents want it as soon as possible so they can pitch the deal to NFL owners ahead of their January meeting and potential team relocation vote.

“I will not move forward until all questions have been resolved,” he said. “I am hopeful the work completed by this committee will serve as a roadmap to Southern Nevada’s unrivaled and continued success.”

Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf, meanwhile, said her city “is neither rolling over, nor giving up” and continues work on a deal with the team.

“Now is the time for everyone in our region to pull together to show the NFL and the Raiders that their future is in Oakland,” she said.

Washington-Grizzly Champions Center Construction on Will Feature State-of-the-Art Amenities Spaceport Road Could Start in 2017

By Lori Tobias

CEG CORRESPONDENT

Next year at this time, athletes at the University of Montana should have plenty to celebrate — the completion of the new $14 million WashingtonGrizzly Champions Center. It’s a 46,000-sq.-ft. (4,273.5 sq m) project offering new locker rooms for the football team, a state-of-the-art strength and conditioning center to be used by all athletes and expansive meeting spaces.

And it comes not a moment too soon.

“Originally in 1983, we started construction on the present stadium in its location,” said Kevin Krebsbach, UM director of facilities. “As part of that construction we had locker rooms and showers under the stadium.

Waterproofing was quite the task. We didn’t ever quite get it right. There was no daylight. It was the worst conditions, a walking plaza and roof overhead, so you can imagine the task of keeping snow from leaking down beneath. It was a challenge for all the recruiting we were doing.”

The university did manage to put in membrane roofing that kept the water out, but it was still less than ideal.

University boosters urged the school to move forward with a replacement and with a donation of $7 million from the Washington family, the university was finally able to get serious about a replacement. But it wasn’t without numerous challenges.

“The site they selected was one of the challenges,” said Krebsbach. “It’s adjacent to the stadium and includes a recreation center and swimming pool.

We wanted the players to be able to run from the facility to the field. We wanted close proximity. All the women’s sports and Olympic sports, everyone uses that area. We wanted to have it so they didn’t have to go outside. When they get all sweaty and want to walk outside and it is 15 degrees, it is a challenge. But also we wanted them to be able to access all the other facilities.”

The most obvious location was a parking lot. It was optimal for the center, but it was a tough choice since it was also the site of all the utilities.

“Every utility ran through that site,” he said. “Virtually all the utilities — steam, storm sewer, water, power.”

Last year, crews went to work relo-

The new $14 million Washington-Grizzly Champions Center will offer new locker rooms for the football team and a state-of-the-art strength and conditioning center to be used by all athletes.

cating those utilities.

“One of the main sources of power to campus ran right through where the building was going to go,” Krebsbach said. “It was vintage 1982 and we were getting a little worried about conductors. So we took the opportunity to relocate the campus feed, our main electrical feed to campus, which was previously under the old stadium, which wasn’t a good thing. We wanted to relocate that supply. We did that before we got started on construction this year.”

There also were some issues with the design. The center must meet LEED silver standards, which impose certain restrictions from the start. Originally, the plan was to work with precast concrete for structural members. But they soon realized they would not be able to fit the large crane necessary to set the concrete in the tight space between the facilities. Instead, they opted for a steel foundation with insulated precast concrete for the walls.

“Because of the crane swing, we wouldn’t be able to get enough structural members in place. We would have had to build in place as you went up each level. It’s not really efficient. The subcontractors would have had to come back multiple times. The locker room has to be durable so that is why we were looking at precast concrete or concrete masonry units for the durability.

You can imagine 100 football players walking down the halls. We still need a crane for the steel, but not the big one that would have been necessary for the concrete structural members.”

There also is the issue of building the center while keeping the stadium open and fully accessible.

“The center is shoehorned between the pool, event center and the stadium.

The Champions Center runs along the concourse of the stadium and we have to leave that concourse in. It has to stay open for access to seating, etc. So engineers came up with a unique shoring.”

They also must work around other crews installing a new video board, and new turf, making it critical that all the contractors work closely.

To meet LEED requirements, all asphalt and concrete busted up from the old parking lot will be trucked to local partners who will recycle and reuse the material.

Trees from the lot were removed and chipped for mulch to be used on campus.

CTA Architects designed the center and the construction contract was awarded to Jackson Contractors Group, both Missoula-based firms. It will feature an abundance of glass and a manufactured-stone veneer, some of which was donated by a local booster.

“We’re proud it,” said Krebsbach.

“Everyone gets behind Grizzly football. There’s a lot of excitement. It just energizes all the contractors knowing what they are building.”

As for the old facility, it will remain in place for visiting teams and some of the other needs that couldn’t fit into the new structure.

LAS CRUCES, N.M. (AP) Planned construction of a southern New Mexico road to Spaceport America is one step closer to taking place.

The Las Cruces Sun-News reports that the New Mexico Spaceport Authority gave approval to sign off on a required agreement with the Bureau of Land Management.

The land agency and Spaceport Authority board of directors must come to terms on a Memorandum of Agreement in order for right-of-way access for construction to be given.

According to a proposal shown to the Spaceport Authority, BLM officials may sign off in October.

Construction on 24 mi. (38.6 km) of dirt road that goes from the Upham exit off Interstate 25 could start in April.

Supporters of the taxpayer-funded Spaceport say a paved route is crucial for county residents and businesses to benefit economically.

Work is expected to be complete by fall 2016. A mix of federal and state funds is being used.

Small Town, Big Traffic Despite the town of Peralta’s rural setting and a population of 3,743, NM 47 had average weekday traffic flows of 25,000 to 30,000 in 2014, according to the most recent data posted by Mid Region Council of Governments, which is the source of the DOT’s traffic flow maps.

The reason for the heavy volume, Bell speculated, is due in part to the proximity of neighboring communities like Bosque Farms, Los Lunas, Belen and Valencia.

Cedarapids Paver Advances Durability, Improves Comfort The rubber track Cedarapids CR662RM RoadMix from BOMAG features a new 260 hp (191 kW) Tier IV Final Cummins diesel engine that delivers the power needed for high production applications. Boasting a low, 21psi fully loaded ground contact pressure, the CR662RM can be used on all paving lifts, including the critical base layer, to virtually eliminate all forms of material and thermal segregation. Unlike MTVs with empty wheel loads in excess of 75 psi, the low-psi rubber track RoadMix machine does not cause rutting on the base layer, can cross bridges fully loaded and is transported to the job site like a 10-ft. (3 m) paver, so contractors can finish mainline and airport paving applications quickly, efficiently and with high mat quality, according to the manufacturer.

Replacing the traditional in-hopper slat delivery system, the improved Remix anti-segregation system delivery augers now feature hard-faced back sides to significantly increase wear life. The two sets of two variable-pitch, counter-rotating augers uniformly draw down material from inside the hopper to aggressively remix 100 percent of the asphalt to combat segregation at the job site.

Auger pitch spacing transitions from 10 in. (25.4 cm) at the front of the hopper to 12 in. (30.5 cm) at the rear to quickly channel material to the transfer conveyor or screed. This design results in throughput capacities in excess of 600 tph (500 t) whether equipped as a paver or MTV. A new platform design increases the operator’s line of sight to the RoadMix’s sides, enhancing comfort and productivity. The operator’s seat now pivots beyond the machine’s side for unimpeded track visibility, while the revamped

Boasting a low, 21-psi fully loaded ground contact pressure, the CR662RM can be used on all paving lifts, including the critical base layer, to virtually eliminate all forms of material and thermal segregation.

operator’s console also pivots to line up with the seat. A sloped engine hood improves the operator’s sightline to the hopper. The generator powering the electric screed is now positioned away from the screed, lowering sound levels to the screed operator’s ears to further improve comfort.

Whereas most MTVs sit idly by more than 75 percent of the time, the unique CR662RM RoadMix design substantially improves a contractor’s return on investment.

In less than 4 hours, crew members can quickly remove the rear conveyor assembly used for transferring material from the tractor and replace it with the screed assembly, according to the manufacturer.

“If necessary, a contractor could pave with the RoadMix in the morning and use it as an MTV in the afternoon,” said Henry Polk, product marketing manager — paving products of BOMAG. “This is one machine that will rarely sit in a contractor’s yard.”

The Cedarapids CR662RM RoadMix now comes standard with 3 years of complementary BOMAG Telematic service.

BOMAG Telematic monitors machine vitals, delivers text and email alerts to key personnel, reminds the dealer and service technicians when scheduled maintenance tasks are due, and offers a number of productivity reports to help maximize machine utilization.

“Even at full load,” added Polk, “Telematic is showing us that the CR662RM uses only an average of 5 gal [19 L] per hour.”

Smartrac technology extends the CR662RM RoadMix’s track life, warranted for 3 years/3,000 hours. Oscillating bogie wheel assemblies combine with the system’s frictionally driven rubber tracks to automatically apply the correct tension to the track, regardless of traveling in forward or reverse. The self-tensioning system does not over tension the track, significantly prolonging track life, according to the manufacturer.

When equipped as an MTV, the CR662RM’s 30-in. (76.2 cm) wide conveyor offers a discharge height

of 73.2 to 115.8 in. (186 to 295 cm) for non-contact paving and swivels 55° left or right of center for off-set paving. For mainline paving, the CR662RM can be equipped with either the Stretch 20 or Fastach 10 screed and is capable of paving at widths reaching up to 30 ft. (9.1 m). Two independently controlled, variable-speed outboard drive motors eliminate the need for the spread auger center gearbox drive to reduce the occurrence of centerline segregation.

The triple-pitch auger flighting design used in the Roadtec shuttle buggy is designed to provide uniform remixing across the width of the entire hopper.

The Roadtec SB-2500e shuttle buggy MTV (material transfer vehicle) can store and transfer hot-mixed asphalt material from a truck to a paver for continuous paving.

Designed to “shuttle” between the asphalt haul truck and paver, the machine features an anti-segregation triple-pitch auger that remixes materials just before they are delivered to the asphalt paver at rates of up to 600 tons (544 t) per hour. The 25-ton (22.6 t) surge capacity of the SB-2500e/ex is sufficient capacity to allow trucks to fully unload material and immediately return to the asphalt plant, according to the manufacturer..

The triple-pitch auger flighting design used in the Roadtec shuttle buggy is designed to provide uniform remixing across the width of the entire hopper. The triplepitch auger located in the bottom of the hopper remixes the contents of the storage hopper. The mixing action is designed to equalize temperatures and evenly mixes large and small particles. A slat conveyor runs from the bottom of the hopper and feeds the discharge conveyor.

The machine’s front hopper features a steep slope and vibrating bottom plate in the hopper, which is designed to prevent material build-up. Heavy-duty, swiveling support casters under the hopper are said to assure smooth movement. Operators can adjust the hopper position from either of two separate

The SB-2500e is powered by a 300 hp Tier IV, diesel Cummins QSL 9 engine. The shuttle buggy MTV rides on four 21-in. wide by 25-in. high flotation tires. The steering wheel controls the front wheels of the allwheel drive machines. The hydrostatic drive mechanism offers two speed ranges (working and travel) with continuously variable speed.

History of Artic Dump Trucks: Tractor to Heavy-Duty Hauler

By Giles Lambertson CEG CORRESPONDENT

Artic dump trucks have a history that traces back to, of all things, a tandem ag tractor conceived in the 1950s in England by an Essex farmer.

Early History Ernest Doe bought two Fordson tractors, removed the front axles from each tractor and connected the front end of one to the rear of the other using a hydraulic turntable.

Voila! A tractor with doubled power. The cantilevered front engine rode on air and the

another Norwegian entrepreneur. Six drive wheels became the industry standard.

Moxy trucks continue to haul materials around the world. The company has gone through a dizzying number of ownerships in the intervening years. An English company bought it in 1983 and three years later Komatsu entered an OEM relationship with it; some Moxy ADTs eventually were rebranded “Komatsu.” In 1997, Komatsu withdrew from the agreement and control of Moxy changed hands a couple more times before Doosan’s construction equipment division took it over in 2008. In 2011, the Moxy brand disappeared entirely.

Doosan So when Doosan literature boasts of 40 years of experience making ADTs, it is alluding to its Moxy heritage. Brian Bereika, Doosan’s ADT product specialist, sings the praises of artic trucks in general.

“It is the only piece of construction equipment that you can put more weight on its back than the machine weighs empty and ask the truck to carry it,” said Bereika. “Our DA40-5 can weigh 70,000 pounds and load 88,000 pounds and do wonders with it under stressful conditions. It took years and years of improvements for ADTs to get where they are today.”

Doosan ADT engineering harkens to its Moxy heritage. The company’s 30-ton (27.2 t) and 40-ton (36.3 t) models feature an unusual mounting of the turning ring in front of the swing point, which the company see HISTORY page 50

claims equally distributes weight to each front wheel in uneven terrain thereby maximizing the traction of each tire. The trucks also have independent front suspensions with leading arms instead of front axles.

Rear wheels on Doosan artic trucks ride on free-swinging tandem housings served by one axle, instead of two, and are powered through one driveline and differential. The result, said Bereika, is fewer wear items to replace over the long haul and more reliable ground contact on each haul.

“All the wheels are on the ground 100 percent of the time. In competing brands, tires come off the ground easily when they encounter ground height differences as little as five inches,” he said.

Volvo Volvo has just introduced its largest artic truck, the A60H. Mats Karlsson, global director of Volvo Construction Equipment’s hauler platform, said the new truck is a culmination of a half century of ADT-building.

“Over the years, the company has built up a vast amount of knowledge and experience connected to this product,” said Karlsson.

“This knowledge was used to develop the new 60-ton class A60H.” Specifically, Karlsson said Volvo “has found the optimum combination and interaction of the powertrain layout, center of gravity, tire ground pressure, machine layout, vehicle dynamics, and so on. The target is to achieve best-in-class productivity.”

Comparative claims of “best in class” are tricky, with several manufacturers claiming the “best” distinction in one category or another. But Volvo’s claim to have an “award-winning” onboard weighing system is indisputable. The system won an Internet Innovation Award. It uses full suspension pressure sensors to monitor load weight and relays the information to onboard software that displays it for the operator and also telematically shares it with mobile devices.

Volvo also claims its retarding/braking system is unique, employing the patented Volvo Engine Brake.

“From a performance and fuel efficiency perspective, the total system is outstanding,” Karlsson said. “The A60H is capable of climbing hills up to 45 degrees.”

Caterpillar Caterpillar got into artic trucks in 1985, supplying components to DJB Engineering in England, which had been producing the machines for a decade. In 1996, Cat bought out DJB and Caterpillar-branded ADTs rolled into the market. The company recently introduced its 745C 45-ton truck, its largest ever.

Cat’s senior product application specialist

Komatsu prides itself on all its ADT parts being manufactured by the company itself, a strategy the company terms “Komatsu Harmony.”

The Cat 745C AT with HEX bucket at work.

for artic trucks, Scott Thomas, cites Caterpillar’s automatic traction control system as the defining characteristic of Cat ADTs. It is standard on all models.

“There is absolutely nothing an operator has to do to engage all six wheels,” said Thomas. “In most competing brands, operators have to push a button, but Cat’s automatic traction control automatically engages torque to each of those wheels and crossaxles.

“The same is true of Cat’s automatic retarding control,” he said. “The truck handles the gears and brakes the truck at a safe, controlled speed and all the operator has to do is take his foot off the accelerator. A lot of times, driving one of these trucks is an entrylevel position. Beginners can drive these trucks safely and efficiently because by making things automatic the operator can concentrate on his surroundings.”

The 745C’s “high density power shift” transmission is a proprietary engineering feature that Cat shares with three other companies, none of the others in construction equipment. It features more gears and forward speeds, less weight, and 18 percent fewer parts than rival transmissions. “All of that adds up to more productivity,” Thomas said.

Komatsu Sixteen years after parting ways with Moxy, Komatsu has 30-ton and 44-ton (40 t) artic truck models that have found a comfortable place in the market. The company prides itself on all its ADT parts being manufactured by the company itself, a strategy

Volvo first marketed this four-wheel-drive articulated hauler in 1966 as a DR 631.

the company terms “Komatsu Harmony.”

“When components are designed and built inhouse, they work together much better than when taking an engine manufactured elsewhere and coupling it to a transmission intended primarily for some other purpose,” said Rob McMahon, product marketing manager of Komatsu America.

One of those components is Komatsu’s electronically controlled transmission system, which monitors and controls both engine and transmission to produce smoother shifts and fewer jolts to the power train.

This is coupled to the company’s traction control system, which constantly monitors wheel speeds on the front and middle axles.

When slippage is detected, an inter-axle lock is engaged and independent brake assemblies applied to boost traction on all wheels.

McMahon said the system helps control a truck in soft ground conditions without compromising steering, as occurs with a differential lock-up system.

“During testing of the newly designed machines in 2001, our ADTs were given a shot at a couple of locations where customers had given up on other manufacturers’ models,” said McMahon. “The condition of the roads was really demanding. Other machines couldn’t handle it. Ours did and the transmission is a big part of it.”

Deere Deere Construction got its start with artic trucks in 1999 through a strategic agreement with South Africa’s Bell Equipment, which had been manufacturing the trucks for about 15 years. The relationship continues in some respects but the companies decided in 2011 to manufacture ADTs separately.

Subsequently, in 2012, Deere introduced its E series. Three years later when it introduced its Tier IV Final-powered units, the company went to a new cab design with better sound-proofing and ergonomics.

Deere ADTs have the usual ADT features, including a braking/retarding system for grades, a traction control system that is either automatically engaged or engaged by an operator while on the move, and onboard load weighing.

“The onboard weighing system is a great feature, because it ensures that you are not leaving any dumper space unused. It is a way of really maximizing the truck’s payload,” said Maryanne Graves, ADT product marketing manager, adding that the feature is not for everyone. “Some guys who have done it a long time just know when the truck is full and call it good.”

Deere claims that its artic trucks have the best-in-class payload-to-weight ratio, particularly the 370, 410 and 460 E series models.

According to the company, Deere claims that its artic trucks, including the Deere 460E, have the best-in-class payload-to-weight ratio.

“We made some significant improvements in the ratio,” Graves said. “We constantly have to balance power and payloads.

You want maximum payloads, but without making trucks a lot heavier. We managed a 13 percent improvement in the payload-topower ratio in the 370E, and pretty much the same for the 410 and 460.”

Bell Bell Equipment continues to build on its 30 years of making ADTs. The South African manufacturer has had dealers in this country for almost that long. Wayne Michels, vice president and general manager of Bell Trucks America, said the Tier IV Final engine on Bell artic trucks is a big plus for the brand.

“Mercedes-Benz has been able to employ a system that doesn’t use a diesel particulate filter, so operators don’t periodically have to do a re-gen,” said Michels. “The re-gen process severely hurts fuel consumption.

Consequently, one of the outstanding features of Bell trucks is that our fuel consumption is less than anyone else’s.”

Bell’s onboard weighing system is standard on all its trucks, not optional as in some other makes. The system utilizes printed circuit boards that are attached to the frame of a truck and can sense actual physical stresses on the steel.

“The naked eye can’t see it but the sensors do,” said Michels.

Bell has just introduced into the U.S. market its B60E, a 55-ton (50 t) artic hybrid that combines a 50-ton (45.3 t) articulated tractor unit and a rigid dumper body. The fourwheel-drive truck can be driven places that the operator of a rigid truck of similar tonnage would fear to go and can turn in a short-

er radius. Michels said the truck was initially developed for a South African market where coal, diamond and gold mines lack improved roads for rigid trucks, but a B60E began working a Texas job site in August and more have been ordered for sale in the United States.

“This is a completely new market for us,” he said. “I have been in the truck business for 40 years and I think we have a two-year window before competitors X, Y and Z decide this is a good thing. We believe it is going to be a good market.”

Bell offers more than a dozen artic trucks that range incrementally from 20-ton to 55 tons.

Market Trends So where in this wide range of ADT models is the sweet spot for artic truck builders?

“Seventy-five percent of artic truck products coming into North America are 30-ton and 40-ton machines,” said Bereika, the Doosan product specialist. “So our models are in almost 80 percent of the base market.

For us, the 30-ton is the most popular.”

Bereika said Doosan developed a 50-ton model in 2008 but never brought it to market.

“We are looking at it again because of recent demand for bigger trucks,” he said.

“We are researching the market possibilities of 50- and 60-ton trucks, but we’re also working on making the models we have as productive, reliable and safe as we can make them. I think the bulk of the market for a long, long time will be 40-ton and smaller.”

Deere is focusing on both ends of the market, according to Graves. Two new smaller models are being introduced in December, yet its two biggest sellers are the 410E 41-

ton (37 t) and 460E 46-ton (41.7 t) models.

“The trend seems to be to larger trucks.

We have seen sales of trucks in the 35-ton range almost double in the last decade,” she said. “But there absolutely still is a future market for smaller trucks. That is not going away. It will remain a strong component of the marketplace.”

Caterpillar’s Thomas also sees multiple trends in the market, but a movement toward larger artic trucks is the dominant one. The 745C is Cat’s largest model and also its most popular. Thomas said the company continues to monitor sales to determine where it needs to position itself.

“If the market tells us to go bigger, we’ll go there,” he said.

Thomas also observes that the economic downturn eight years ago still is having an impact on truck sales. Consequently, ADT rentals account for almost 50 percent of the movement of trucks from dealers’ equipment yards.

“Customers are still leery about building back their inventory,” he said. “They just wait and see if they get a job and if they do, they rent a few trucks to do it.”

Karlsson said Volvo’s 60-ton (54.4 t) A60H “meets growing customer demand for articulated haulers with larger capacities.”

So are larger units in the works at Volvo?

Karlsson won’t say.

“I’m unable to disclose what the future holds. That would spoil the surprise,” he said.

The most popular models for Bell Trucks America are the 30-ton and 40-ton units. But Michels, the VP-general manager, said it is an evolving situation.

“For a long time we have seen the biggest market was in the 30-ton range, but more and more people are turning to the 40-ton truck. Today, the 30-ton still is the most popular in sheer numbers, but the 40-ton market is growing faster,” he said.

So the market may shake out in favor of one size or another, or it may remain mixed.

That will be determined partly by which applications on the spectrum of uses — property development to mining — dominate the ADT market. And it might also depend upon where in the world the machines are being operated.

“In North America, I think you will see a lot of the larger machines being used,” Thomas said. “I attribute that to us having the greatest transportation system in the world. You can put a large machine on a low-boy in Maryland and send it to work in California. You can’t do that in South America and some other places.”

Cat C2 Series Articulated Trucks Feature More Power The Cat C2 Series articulated dump truck range includes the 314 hp (234 kW) 725C2 and the 367-hp (274 kW) 730C2 and 730C2 EJ with ejector-type body. Rated payloads are 26.5 tons (24 t) for the 725C2 and 31 tons (28 t) for the two larger models. Standard automatic traction control ensures efficient operation of the new models, which advance the design of predecessor models with increased productivity, lower operating costs, and added rimpull/retarding capability, while retaining the long-term durability, high availability, high resale value and optimum rental margins of previous models.

Powertrain Engines in all three models are available that meet or are equivalent to world emission standards: U.S. EPA Tier II/EU Stage II, Tier III/Stage IIIA, or Tier IV Final/Stage IV. A diesel particulate filter and selective catalytic reduction system provide exhaust aftertreatment for Tier IV Final/Stage IV models.

The Cat 6F/1R power-shift transmission electronically modulates clutch engagement pressures for smooth, positive shifts and incorporates the Caterpillar Advanced Productivity Electronic Control Strategy (APECS) system. The APECS system improves acceleration, maintains torque converter lock-up (and ground speed) during shifts, provides automatic speed holding, and modifies shift points to match operating conditions. Net benefits include high productivity, optimum control and increased fuel economy For controlling downhill speed, the 730C2 and 730C2 EJ employ an enginecompression brake that provides 60 percent more retarding force than previous models.

The 725C2 uses a fluid retarder with four operating modes. Both systems effectively manage speed and minimize service brake application for extended brake life.

All three new C2 Series models feature full-time, six-wheel drive and are equipped with wet disc clutch locks in the cross axle and inter-axle differentials. Automatic, on the go application of the locks is fully proportional, engaging only the required amount of lockup to maintain traction in adverse conditions — with no input from the operator. Also, new for the C2 range is allaxle wet brakes. The sealed system prevents the ingress of debris and extends brake life.

Structures and Suspension The new C2 Series models feature field proven major structures that ensure long term durability in severe applications. The front frame incorporates box section longitudinal beams, and the rear frame uses a fourplate box construction to reduce stress points. The hitch retains its durable two-

The Cat C2 Series articulated dump truck range includes the 314 hp (234 kW) 725C2 and the 367-hp (274 kW) 730C2 and 730C2 EJ with ejector-type body. Rated payloads are 26.5 tons (24 t) for the 725C2 and 31 tons (28 t) for the two larger models.

piece construction, using a cast-steel head bolted to a hard wearing, forged steel tube that maintains a tight, trouble free connection between the frames, according to the manufacturer.

Three-point, oil/nitrogen front suspension and walking-beam rear suspension effectively absorb haul road impact to allow safe, high speed travel. The newly design dump body, using high strength Brinell HB450 wear resistant steel for added resistance to impact and abrasion, features a diverging flow design that promotes clean dumping and minimizes material carry- back. The body top rail design reduces material spillage in the loading area, and a fully welded front bumper and full-width belly pan provide enhanced machine protection.

Operator Environment The spacious two-person cab features a multi adjustable air suspension seat for the operator; a full size, forward facing seat for the trainer; tilting/telescopic steering wheel, and convenient wrap around dash. A multipurpose color display provides pertinent operating information, as well as the feed from the rearview camera when activated.

The low, sloping hood of the new models, coupled with the operator's central position and extensive glass area, ensures excellent

all-around visibility. Intuitive, low effort controls contribute to safe operation and operator convenience.

drain intervals for engine oil and hydraulic fluid lower maintenance costs, as do adjustment-free wheel bearings.

Safety and Serviceability Machine headlights and turn indicators (mounted wide on the machine), combined with high- mounted LED width-position marker lights contribute to improved night time working safety. An extensive handrail system, slip-resistant surfaces, and large, wide-angle mirrors (available in a heated a version) further enhance overall safety.

To promote safe operation, the cab features integral ROPS/FOPS construction. An electro-hydraulic secondary steering system automatically activates in low pressure situations. The park brake is spring applied, hydraulically released. External switches for fuel cut-off and electrical disconnect are easily accessible outside the machine.

An electric hood, which is raised and lowered via a switch in the cab, provides ample access to routine service points, and the rear of cab mounting of the radiator (using long life coolant) allows easy access for cleaning.

The cab tilts for access to the transmission, drive shafts and hydraulic components, and an electrical service center in the cab provides a power port, diagnostic connector, and Cat Data Link connector. Extended

Productivity The optional Cat production measurement system brings payload weighing to the cab, helping operators work more productively and accurately. The integrated system calculates payload values using sensors located on the walking beam suspension and shows when target weight is reached, thus maximizing payloads and productivity, while reducing overloading that results in premature wear.

Technology Part of LINK technologies, the Product Link system wirelessly connects owners to their equipment, providing access to valuable machine data such as location, hours, fuel consumption, idle time, events, and diagnostic codes for analysis and reporting via the online VisionLink user interface.

LINK information assists with fact-based decision making to help increase efficiency and lower owning and operating costs.

Find the Best ADT Finance Option One of the reasons you may like renting an articulated dump truck (ADT) for your projects is the ability to have short-term access to high-capacity and reliable machinery for moving materials in any terrain you encounter — especially in muddy or difficult terrain.

Whether you are moving dirt or aggregates in site development, road construction or any building project where mass excavation is required, an ADT can provide fast and efficient dumping.

“ADTs are popular because they have the horsepower, torque and gear ratios to complete jobs efficiently,” said Brian Bereika, Doosan ADT product specialist.

However, ADTs can be one of the most expensive machines on a construction site if they are not fully utilized.

Many business owners find it more economical to rent a machine before purchasing if work is not consistent on a daily or weekly basis. During that rental term, though, you could be quickly building equity that can be converted into a financing option towards ownership.

Put Equity to Work Financing construction equipment is still a popular route to ownership because this equipment, unlike equipment in other industries, typically is not faced by obsolescence. If you have already identified the future projects and resources to justify owning an ADT, there are some compelling finance options to consider. The three most commonly used types of financing in the industry include rent-to-purchase options, traditional loans and leasing. Equipment dealers are very adept at structuring rent-to-purchase option agreements that may be favorable for your business. In addition to the benefits of reducing fleet costs and eliminating service, an RPO may represent an opportunity for owners with a short-term need that turns into a long-term solution.

Manufacturers also are making attractive loan and leasing choices available for customers who would like to convert their current rental plan into ownership. Most offer belowmarket financing as low as 0 to 2.9 percent — rates that would not be available for you to secure through a conventional lender. At the same time, there is a growth trend occurring in leasing as the economy continues to improve from the long-lasting effects of the last recession. Leasing is an option that may provide a single and often lower monthly payment and may include a bundled extended warranty.

Choose Your Best Option While the three most-popular financing options provide different advantages and benefits for your operation, the most important factors to evaluate with each option is how long you plan to keep the ADT, what target payment you require and whether you need flexibility to return the ADT without further obligation to the lessor.

Rent-to-Purchase Option If you are hesitant to make a capital investment in equipment, a rent-to-purchase option agreement (RPO) may serve your short-term equipment needs. It can be structured to transfer a portion of a rental fee toward purchasing the machine, or you can return it at the end of the rental period.

Although ADTs can be rented for a shorter term than loan or lease alternatives, the trade-off is generally higher rental rates.

Traditional Loan With less loan delinquency in the market, it is much easier to secure financing today than a few years ago. Loan

approval rates by lending institutions, manufacturers and the Equipment Leasing and Finance Association are up overall.

Loan rates — especially those offered by manufacturers — are relatively low and attractive right now, and payment terms are usually longer. However, the most important aspects to evaluate with a loan are the term and the interest rate, as they are the primary drivers of the loan payment.

Leasing A hybrid between a rental and a purchase, there has been an uptick in leasing solutions. Leasing typically provides the lowest payment scenarios and the best hedge for potential declines in equipment values. Because leases are structured only for the use of an ADT during the lease term, they enable you to customize a financing program to meet your business’s cash flow issues, including budgeting, and transaction and cyclical fluctuations.

Less flexible than a short-term rental, leases can be an appealing alternative if you do not have an appetite for additional depreciation. Seasonal leases are still popular as they help to slot payments into their busiest months, and avoid payments during the off-season. Additionally, leasing equipment has different tax implications than conventional forms of financing. In most cases, the entire lease payment can be deducted as a business expense over the course of the lease contract; however, you should confirm your individual situation with a tax professional to be sure.

Determine the Crossover Regardless of which route makes the most sense for you, it is important to determine and monitor the crossover point in which you have built enough equity in an articulated dump truck through rental that you could effectively lower your payment by exercising your purchase option. For example, let us imagine that you are renting a 30-metric-ton ADT for 6 to 12 months at rates that typically range from $8,000 to $12,000 per month, depending on your specific location and arrangement.

At the end of that term, you could have accumulated anywhere from $50,000 up to $150,000 in equity, which could represent more than 50 percent of the purchase price of a machine that likely has a good residual value. At this crossover point what matters more than the acquisition cost of the machine is finding the right finance option that will help you convert to ownership and set you up with a monthly payment you can afford to accomplish that goal.

In fact, the sooner you can give a dealership representative an indication that you may be interested in converting rental arrangements to potential ownership, the better. It is recommended that business owners have open discussions up front about the terms involved with applying rental fees. If you wait until the end of the term, some organizations may not apply the full rental amount that you accumulated to a purchase deal.

As you consider ownership of an ADT, you have already made a smart choice by renting a unit first. It is helped you better understand the performance of the machine, opened up lines of communication with your equipment supplier and provided an opportunity to explore your purchase options. If you have put your business in a position to add a truck to your fleet, it has never been easier to find a finance option that will convert your valuable equity into ownership for long-term productivity.

Windisch Selects Terex Trucks to Help Link Vienna to Brno Five Terex Trucks 31 ton (28 t) capacity TA300s have been selected by local contractor Windisch to take part in the expansion of the North Autobahn (A5), which will form a modern highway between Vienna in Austria and Brno in the Czech Republic. The proven performers work 12-hour shifts, six days a week, and are responsible for shifting 1.8 million cu. yds. (1.4 million cu m) of earth.

Scheduled for completion in 2017, the project was implemented

by Austria’s Autobahn and highway financing stock corporation, ASFiNAG. The A5 is already a popular route due to the international checkpoint at Drasenhofen, and the extension will be welcomed by commuters as it will ease traffic build up, shorten the 81 mi. (130 km) transit time between the two cities, and reduce noise pollution. The articulated haulers for the A5 project were supplied to Windisch by Terex Trucks’Austrian distributor, Mlecka Construction.

Founded in 2011, Mlecka is a family-run construction company

Five Terex Trucks 31 ton (28 t) capacity TA300s have been selected to take part in the expansion of the North Autobahn (A5), which will form a modern highway between Vienna in Austria and Brno in the Czech Republic.

based just outside of Vienna in Oeynhausen. Appointed an official Terex Trucks dealer in 2015, Mlecka has strong connections in Austria, Slovenia and Hungary.

John Mlonek, commercial sales manager at Terex Trucks, said:

“Like other EU countries, the Austrian market has proved difficult but the extension of the North Autobahn is one of the brighter investments in the tough articulated hauler market.

“Windisch was looking at other

brands but chose to go with Terex Trucks, which is a real vote of confidence for our robust Scottish machines.”

Created at the Motherwell factory, the TA300 is built to work harder for longer. Its leading tractive

effort and effective power to weight ratios ensure material is moved as quickly as possible in all conditions — providing increased productivity and low cost of operation. With fully independent front suspension as standard, tire/ground contact is maintained regardless of the terrain, increasing tractive effort and reducing cycle times while also providing operators with a comfortable haul, according to the manufacturer.

In addition, the transmission retardation system in combination with engine exhaust brake support the fully-enclosed oil-cooled multidisc brakes for enhanced protection of the brakes, resulting in less maintenance and a longer life span for the brakes. The machine also is powered by a fuel-efficient five cylinder Scania DC9 engine, which develops gross power of 370 hp (276 kW) and maximum torque of 1,880 Nm.

Hitachi Launches Trucks for Large-Scale Mining Operations Hitachi Construction Machinery – Americas’s two rigid-frame haul truck models — the EH3500AC-3 (nominal payload with standard equipment of 200 tons [181 t], target gross machine operating weight of 709,888 lb. [322,000 kg]), and the EH4000AC-3 (nominal payload with standard equipment of 243.6 tons [221 t], target gross machine operating weight of 846,575 lb. [384,000 kg]) — are designed for use in large-scale mining operations.

The two rigid-frame haul truck models are equipped with an advanced AC-drive system that was developed with Hitachi Group technologies employed in conventional models. Improvements include various sensors that provide information on drive conditions. The result is the Hitachi drive control system that reduces tire slippage on acceleration and tire lock-up during braking, and prevents chassis oscillation in a front-rear direction and tire skid while steering, according to the manufacturer.

In addition, to satisfy the request of customers worldwide, Hitachi is giving customers outside of North America a choice between engines from two different companies.

This option also is available for the EH5000AC-3 rigid haul truck, which was launched in February 2013.

The release of these two rigidframe haul truck models completes the lineup for the EH AC-3 series of haulers equipped with an ACdrive system. Along with the company’s ultra-large hydraulic excavators, for which Hitachi boasts a high market share, Hitachi plans to supply these rigid haul truck models to contribute to the improvement of productivity at mines around the world.

Main Features 1. Increased mobility and productivity Hitachi couples the AC-drive system, which has a high loadresponsive IGBT inverter, with drive control software that was jointly developed with other Hitachi Group companies, to achieve a system that excels in controlling travel motor speed and torque.

Whether taking off from a

The two rigid-frame haul truck models are equipped with an advanced AC-drive system that was developed with Hitachi Group technologies employed in conventional models.

standstill, ascending grades or performing steering maneuvers, the system delivers an optimal, individual amount of power to each of the travel motors for smooth, quick operation.

In addition to adding various sensors that detect vehicle motion, this is the first time in this class of machinery that models employ the Hitachi drive control system, which aims to achieve higher drive control performance by reducing tire slippage on acceleration and tire lock-up during braking, and preventing chassis oscillation in a front-rear direction and tire skid while steering. Consequently, the trucks boast strong and steady travel performance that ensures more stable jobsite haul-cycle times, which contributes to higher productivity.

These two models also feature powerful electric brakes that are activated during downhill driving.

Since these trucks do not require the use of mechanical brakes during normal driving, not only is deceleration smoother but maintenance for the mechanical brakes is required less frequently.

2. Increased operability In the wide-berth cab, which is capable of housing two full-size seats, a large LCD display is located at the base of the handle. The display is in clear view and quickly provides the operator with information and warnings on drive operations such as traveling speed, engine turnover and hauling performance. In addition, the multilingual display allows users to view information and warnings in their own language, thereby contribut-

ing to improved serviceability and safety.

Due to a powerful electric brake, the haulers can be normally operated using two pedals, one for acceleration and one for the brakes.

Easier operability alleviates operator fatigue.

Hitachi located the levers and switches for operating the body in the center console, making it possible to operate the body with one hand.

3. Increased reliability and safety The mainframe’s structural design, including the cab support, is improved and fortified based on operating information Hitachi gathered on conventional models being used around the world.

The company added a temperature sensor to the bearing area of

the alternator and drive motor, which are the main components of the AC-drive system. An alarm sounds when the sensor detects abnormal heat emission and restricts driving operations to prevent sudden damage to the machine.

Improvements were made to the nominal payload measurement system to increase the reliability of production volume measurements at mining sites. Measurement errors have been reduced by reflecting changes in fuel weight within the fuel tank into the nominal payload.

ROPS and FOPS are built into every truck cab as a standard safety requirement to withstand the impact of falling objects or a truck rollover. Other standard safety features include two mirrors with front and rear view cameras to provide extensive truck perimeter visibility, ample width truck access stairways and four engine stop switches located outside the cab to allow the operator to turn off the engine in an emergency situation during maintenance. In addition, the wide cab features ample foot space to improve the operating environment.

The peripheral vision support system feature provides another view to support the operator.

4. Superior maintenance and serviceability The evacuator exhaust valve for the engine suction filter and electric grease pump are among the new features added to further improve daily maintenance.

Other standard features for maintenance include a trailing arm front suspension that permits strut removal without tire removal, a centralized auto-grease system accessible from the ground, a battery and relay box located in the front bumper for easy access, and a maintenance deck in the rear of the cab.

Outside of North America, Hitachi is now offering customers the option of choosing between the standard feature Cummins Inc. engine and one by MTU Friedrichshafen GmbH. For more information, visit www.HitachiConstruction.com.

Komatsu’s HD325-7 Dump Truck Increases Productivity Komatsu America Corp.’s HD325-7 is designed for sand and gravel and rock quarry sites. The truck increases productivity while lowering fuel consumption to provide a safer and more comfortable operator environment and offer improved durability and reliability, according to the manufacturer.

The HD325-7 features a powerful, clean SAA6D140E-5 turbocharged, after-cooled diesel engine that provides a maximum net output of 498 hp (371 kW).

This high performance engine is enhanced with an advanced cooling system and improved fuel prefilters. Komatsu’s rigid dump truck features environmentally friendly lead-free aluminum core radiators.

To protect the environment, a tank is installed to recover brake cooling oil in the event of brake seal leakage. In addition, the truck also has reduced cab noise levels.

The HD325-7 is equipped with the latest KOMTRAX technology, which sends machine operating information to a secure Web site utilizing wireless technology. Hour meter, location, cautions and maintenance alerts — to name a few of its features — are relayed to the Web application for analysis. The KOMTRAX fleet monitoring system increases machine availability, reduces the risk of machine theft, allows for remote diagnosis by the distributor, and provides a wealth of other information to drive business efficiency and productivity.

Special features of the rigid dump truck include: High Performance for Enhanced Productivity The truck’s performance engine delivers faster acceleration and higher travel speeds with high horsepower per ton. High torque at low speed, increased acceleration and low fuel-consumption ensure maximum productivity. The Komatsu designed electronically controlled countershaft transmission with K-ATOMiCS automatically selects the optimum gear according to vehicle speed, engine speed and the shift position chosen, resulting in the best gear for any operating condition, according to the manufacturer.

The optional automatic retard speed control system (ARSC) with a large capacity retarder allows

The HD325-7 features a powerful, clean SAA6D140E-5 turbocharged, after-cooled diesel engine that provides a maximum net output of 498 hp (371 kW).

operators to set downhill travel speed at a constant level. Its cooling oil temperature is always monitored, so the speed is automatically lowered if the retarder oil temperature rises.

Improved Cab Design Enhances Operator Comfort and Safety The HD325-7 is equipped with an ergonomically designed, cab that offers a quiet and comfortable operator environment. The wide spacious cab is mounted with Komatsu’s viscous mounts to keep noise at a minimum and provide a low-vibration, clean operating environment and the built-in ROPS/FOPS structure provides roll-over protection. Adoption of a low effort body dump control

lever makes dumping loads much easier. The secondary foot-operated brakes actuate the front disk brakes and parking brakes. In addition, when hydraulic pressure drops below the rated level, the parking brake is automatically activated.

Durability and Reliability Provide Easy Maintenance Flat face-to-face O-ring seals are used to securely seal all hydraulic hose connections and prevent oil leakage. The main harnesses and controller connectors are equipped with sealed DT connectors to provide high reliability, and water and dust resistance. The truck’s fully hydraulic controlled wet multiple-disc brakes ensure reliable and stable

brake performance. The continuously cooled wet-multiple disc brakes also function as a highly responsive retarder, which gives the operator greater confidence at higher downhill travel speeds.

Wet disc brakes are fully sealed to keep contaminants out, reducing wear and maintenance.

Because the brakes don’t require adjustments for wear, maintenance is extremely low. The braking system is designed with added reliability with three independent hydraulic circuits that provide hydraulic back-up should one of the circuits fail. This system eliminates air bleeding so water condensation — which can lead to contamination, corrosion and freezing — also is eliminated.

Both the service filters and

greasing points have been centralized for easier servicing. To minimize operating costs, oil change intervals also have been extended to 500 hours for engine oil and 4000 hours for hydraulic oil.

Flange-type tire rims make removal and installation of the trucks’ tires easy. Komatsu’s advanced onboard diagnostic system maximizes machine production time by identifying maintenance items, reducing diagnostic times, indicating oil and filter replacement hours and displaying abnormality codes.

Honnen Equipment Elects Jon Asbury Vice President

Hlavinka JCB 7105 Hwy. 59 N. Victoria, TX 77905 361-541-6100

Honnen Equipment announced that Jon Asbury was elected vice president at a recent shareholder’s meeting. Asbury has 18 years total heavy equipment industry experience and oversees all sales operations for the used, Wirtgen and Manitowoc divisions.

Asbury began his career with Honnen as a territory manager in 2004 and became the asphalt division sales manager (Wirtgen Group) in 2009. Since then Asbury’s sales management responsibilities have been increasing and broadening to include the used sales division and the Manitowoc Crane sales division as well.

Honnen Equipment is the authorized dealer of John Deere Construction & Forestry Equipment in the Rocky Mountain Region. It is their mission to partner with their customers to provide value through the lowest owning and operating costs. Honnen Equipment provide parts, sales, service and rentals as well as customer support and technology solutions for today’s heavy equipment.

New Mexico’s Peralta Roadway Project Due to Complete This Fall IMPROVEMENTS from page 32

Noise and air quality also are being closely monitored throughout the project.

Business as Usual … Sort of Another type of challenge is business and residence access during construction. During the design phase, the design team held two public information meetings as well as three property owner workshops, Bell said. In addition, she added, “The prime contractor communicates with the businesses and residents, letting them know that access will be disturbed and let them know the route that is designated for them.

“The traffic pattern set up for motorists on the first day of construction reduced the roadway from two to one northbound and one southbound lane, but added a center turn lane that did not exist before,” Bell continued.

Traffic was shifted to the east side of the road so crews could begin constructing a temporary asphalt roadway on the west side of the roadway. This allowed commuters access throughout the work zone throughout the entire project without the need for road closures.

The next traffic pattern shifted traffic to the west side of the road, and then back to the east as crews constructed the permanent roadway.

Because motorists are not accustomed to having their

Work is expected to be complete by fall 2016.

highway become a work zone, Bell said speeds through the corridor have been an issue.

“The Los Lunas law enforcement have assisted crews by having an officer during work hours [to monitor] speeds and, as a result, has made the corridor safer for everyone,” she said.

Within the first month they issued 23 speeding citations and 10 written warnings. NMDOT is hoping that drivers slow down and locals are hoping construction speeds up.

Ritchie Bros. to Offer CAS Sales at Cat Dealer Locations continue to offer its formats.”

investors.

“After strong consideration of an IPO and combining with Ritchie Bros., our board unanimously agreed that the best outcome for IronPlanet’s employees and shareholders was to combine with Ritchie Bros,” Owens said. “This combination recognizes the value of IronPlanet’s proven technology platform, our unique IronClad Assurance and the enticing opportunity to combine the IronPlanet and Ritchie Bros. platforms to enable the companies to offer unprecedented choices to customers.”

According to Saligram, the new business is being treated as a merger, rather than an acquisition, and several of IronPlanet’s key executives, including Owens, are coming over and joining Ritchie Bros. post closing.

“We highly respect and value the skill sets and expertise that their executives and employees bring. Their agility, innovation and technological prowess are great complements to our strategy to offer customers more sales options,” Saligram said.

“This is an acquisition based on doing the right thing for customers and driving future growth. We expect there may be some duplicate corporate expenses, such as insurance or external supplier costs, which we can also address to operate more efficiently,” he added.

Benefits to Long-Time Customers/Bidders Until the deal closes, both companies will remain independent, but both Saligram and Owens believe that there will be benefits in the long-term to both of their customer groups.

“As one company, we will have the ability to provide customers around the world with unprecedented choices with respect to how they want to sell, buy and list equipment: when and where they want, onsite or online, reserved or unreserved,” Owens said.

“It’s very positive for customers, because we are making the buying and selling experience more convenient and desirable,” Saligram said. “I think the true benefit of putting these brands together in a portfolio is that you extend the reach to customers by offering more choices. We will be offering choices for Ritchie Bros. customers who may not have used the IronPlanet model and likewise for IronPlanet customers who may not have used Ritchie Bros.’ auctions model.

“The other side of it relates to technology sharing by both companies,” he added. “We have expertise bringing integrated live auctions online, whereas IronPlanet has a variety of formats to offer. We have a lot of expertise on the whole, over-the-road truck side and IronPlanet has a top-notch inspec-

tion system. The strengths of our separate companies will continue to manifest themselves after we merge to truly benefit our customers.”

Cat Auction Services Auctions According to both Saligram and Owens, Ritchie Bros. will still offer Cat Auction Services sales at Caterpillar dealer locations.

“Cat Auction Services live onsite auctions are big draws for our customers, especially good marketing for the Cat dealers,” Owens said. “We have every intention of continuing these live events. In fact, we are planning a western sale next March 13 to 15 in Las Vegas that we hope to build over time to the scale of our Florida Cat Auction Services event to reach customers on the west coast and dealers in the western side of the U.S. Ritchie Bros. has committed to continuing to run CAS Auctions under the Cat Auction Services brand.”

Owens said he doesn’t anticipate any significant change in the frequency of Cat Auction Services events.

“I want to see them continue to grow in scale and sales volume. Larger events tend to attract more customers and we want to bring the same excitement and scale to the Las Vegas sale annually that we have in Florida in February,” he said.

To Reserve or Not to Reserve Ritchie Bros. is known for its commitment to unreserved auctions; IronPlanet offers consigners the option to put a reserve on a piece of equipment. These are not expected to change under the new business model.

“Ritchie Bros. Auctions, which is our integrated live auction onsite, online brand, has been known for unreserved auctions and I do not see any change whatsoever there. We are very proud of that heritage and our buyers love it. It’s a fantastic model with a lot of runway,” Saligram said.

The company also offers an online, reserved model, in its EquipmentOne brand, which, according to Saligram, uses a format similar to IronPlanet’s bidding marketplace.

“Interestingly, a significant amount of [IronPlanet’s] volume goes through the weekly auction that is actually unreserved, so they have different formats, both reserved and unreserved. We also have RBA Auctions, which are unreserved, and EquipmentOne, which has a reserve. All of this comes down to customer choice.

“There are different types of sellers, all with different ideas of what they value in terms of risk profiles at any particular point in time,” he said. “You have customers that might want to sell some pieces reserved and some unreserved. If it’s a very specialized, unique piece then they may want to put it on a reserve format, whereas something that has a long track record they may choose to sell on an unreserved platform. It’s all about the customer and providing them with even more choices, so they can decide what is best for them.

“In terms of the brand positioning, RBA, our primary model, our core model of live on site integrated with online will absolutely, positively remain unreserved,” Saligram added. “As for EquipmentOne, it is already reserved and when IronPlanet comes in the brand, it will stay as IronPlanet and it will

“...our board unanimously agreed that the best outcome for IronPlanet’s employees and shareholders was to combine with Ritchie Bros.”

Will a Caterpillar Alliance Keep Competitors Away?

Ritchie Bros. has been selling Caterpillar products and equipment for many years and considers its recently announced strategic alliance a step toward taking that relationship to the “next level.”

“We are very proud of this strategic alliance that the combined company will have going forward. Having said that, we were very clear from the onset, and Caterpillar has the utmost respect for our perspective on this, which is we have to continue to have relationships with other OEM manufacturers and dealers,” Saligram said.

“That is based on a neutrality model to be like Switzerland. We have great relationships with other equipment manufacturers, be they Volvo, Komatsu, John Deere, JCB or other partners. I do not see this as any kind of issue. We are very comfortable that we will be able to not only build and grow our Caterpillar relationship, but also continue to build our relationships with other OEMs as well as their dealers.”

Owens agrees.

“What we see is when we have better latemodel, lower-hour equipment to sell, we get more interested buyers, which raises demand and supports pricing. So, whether it is Cat, Volvo, John Deere, Komatsu, or any other make, we will continue offering desirable used equipment at competitive prices.

We actually find that many customers desire specific brands of different types of equipment, so having different brands and types of equipment at an auction is actually more desirable for all.”

Mascus Acquisition The acquisition of Mascus was on point with Ritchie Bros.’ strategy of becoming a true multi-channel player and catering to the different sectors of the industry in terms of asset management and equipment disposition, according to Saligram.

“As you know, one of the major ways that people sell equipment is through private listings and Mascus is a leader of that in Europe — a strong brand with a lot of unique visitors per month. They not only provide advertising services and listing services for their customers, but also a lot of business-to-business tools.

“Both IronPlanet and Ritchie Bros. are transactional engines and Mascus is a listing service and we see that very much as part of the portfolio,” Saligram said.
