New Compact Bridge Set for Clay County, Kan. By Jennifer Rupp CEG CORRESPONDENT

U.S. 24 runs the entire width of Kansas, extending into Colorado to the west and Missouri to the east. Major repairs to this route have been incorporated into the Kansas Department of Transportation’s (KSDOT) highway projects over the next couple of years. For the 2012-2013 fiscal period, KSDOT has allotted $82 million for improvements across the state. The projects range from heavy preservation and expansion, to light preservation and modernization. see BRIDGE page 58 Cate rpil lar Highl ight s Rit chie Br os. Sa le.. .71

WASHINGTON (AP) The oil industry’s top lobbyist warned the Obama administration Jan. 4 to approve the Keystone XL oil pipeline or face “huge political consequences” in an election year. Jack Gerard, president of the American

Petroleum Institute, said it would be a “huge mistake” for President Barack Obama to reject the 1,700-mi. (2,736 km), Canada-to-Texas pipeline. Obama faces a Feb. 21 deadline to decide whether the $7 billion pipeline is in the national interest. “Clearly, the Keystone XL pipeline is in the national interest,” Gerard said at the trade association’s annual “State of see PIPELINE page 62

ASSOCIATED PRESS

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) Stuck in a financial pothole, Missouri’s highway department has been selling equipment and eliminating employees to scrounge up enough money to repair its roads. Unless it also changes state law, it could lose tens of millions of federal highway dollars as a penalty for not adopting new safety requirements for commercial truck drivers. Though Missouri’s financial predicament may be extreme, it is far from unique. Approximately one-third of states have indicated they may not meet a Jan. 30 deadline for their drivers’ license offices to require interstate truck drivers to provide proof from a medical professional that they are healthy enough to drive, according to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. States that fail to comply with the federal mandate could lose 5 percent of their highway funds — about $30 million in Missouri’s case. If they remain out of compliance for a second year, that penalty doubles. But noncompliant states could receive a grace period; as long as they submit a plan to obey the mandate, federal officials have indicated they may not start deducting money until 2014. The federal agency declined to provide a list of the states in jeopardy of missing the deadline. But Missouri’s plight was confirmed by state officials and documents obtained by The Associated Press through an open-records request. Officials in several other states, including Colorado, Kansas and Oklahoma, also confirmed to the AP that they will not be able to fully implement the federal requirement by the deadline. “It’s hard enough to keep our roads in good condition, and this is going to make it more difficult,” said Missouri state Rep. Eric Burlison, a Republican who unsuccessfully sought to bring Missouri in line with the federal requirements. The federal government already requires interstate see FUNDS page 23

William Charles Construction Goes Green With Komatsu By Brenda Ruggiero CEG CORRESPONDENT

The Komatsu HB215-1 hybrid excavator is one of the key building blocks currently being used by William Charles Construction in Loves Park, Ill., to help the company achieve its goals. “William Charles has had a sustainable approach for decades,” said Jeffrey Gregory, vice president. “Before it was even in vogue, we were into recycled paving and were reusing our methane gas from landfills. Our mission is to be environmentally conscious in everything that we do. To meet that objective, there is great value in working with a partner such as Komatsu because their development of hybrid puts us on the same page. Working with Komatsu is one more step in our efforts to be environmentally conscious. We’re pleased with their hybrid equipment and how it’s helping us achieve our goals.” Gregory Kittle, William Charles’ vice president of purchasing, explained that William Charles is an opportunity-driven company with a long history of investing in challenging opportunity areas, whether they be in energy, construction, landfill development, or real estate. “Whatever the high opportunity is, that’s really where we’re driven,” he said. “We look at opportunities, analyze them very well, then develop partnerships with those who have core skills.” Kittle noted that fleet integration has been challenging for the company and the construction industry in general, depending on the area of the country. He stated that the company is driving toward finding the right solution for increasing the tier level of its portfolio. “For example, if a typical tractor starts its fleet at a Tier II as an average, our goal is to increase that,” he said. “We don’t want to rebuild more [retrofit individual machines with newer cleaner engines to increase the tier level of the fleet], but we’d like to analyze the fleet and time machine acquisitions with regards to operating expense. Then, we can get down to the machine level and account for what the [machine’s] equity is in the market today [to better time the machine’s placement].” He explained that by doing so, a couple of things are accomplished. One is that it minimizes the operating rate that’s required. It also increases the tier level and the fleet average. “There are some areas of the country — New York or California in particular — where drive emission standards are more strict than EPA regulations,” he said. “As we all know, CARB [California Air Resources Board] is able to create its own rules, so a lot

(L-R): Standing in front of the Komatsu HB215-1 hybrid excavator are Jenkins Davis, director of major accounts, Komatsu America; Jeff Gregory, vice president of William Charles Construction; John Ross, territory manager of Roland Machinery Co.; Greg Kittle, William Charles Construction; James Jesuit, general manager, Chicago division of Roland Machinery Co.; and Dan Johnson, vice president of equipment, William Charles Construction.

of cities in North America are adopting CARB’s rules rather than EPA’s. So if Tier III is acceptable to the EPA, that does not mean it’s acceptable with some of these other governmental standards. The hybrid allows us to increase our tier profile. It also provides a good message to our customers and to the cities that we’re interested in, so our hope is that the hybrid will provide a real life return in fuel savings, but it also provides an opportunity to increase what’s called our soft return in regards to our green image.” William Charles learned of the hybrid through its affiliated company in New York, where one of the contractors on a joint venture job had one. They were able to operate the machine, see how it performed, and do some performance analysis as well. “The reason we were interested in Komatsu’s technology is based on a relationship that we have with Komatsu,” Kittle said. “Komatsu is a preferred supplier for William Charles and its affiliates. We work with multiple Komatsu dealers, and Komatsu has found a means by which to bridge that challenge for us. We highly value our relationship with Komatsu. Jenkins Davis [director of major accounts, Komatsu America Corp.] has done an outstanding job for us, and he and the dealer network are the primary reason we’ve chosen Komatsu and included them in our purchasing program.”

Davis noted that Komatsu is very excited about that fact that William Charles is willing to take a step forward and put into their rental fleet the HB215-1 hybrid excavator that they are currently renting from Roland Machinery. Komatsu is the first manufacturer in the world that developed and introduced a hybrid excavator and is the only manufacturer that has it in mass production and commercially available for customer purchase, according to Davis. “The hybrid excavator has actually been in mass production since 2008,” said Armando Najera Jr., product manager of Komatsu America Corp., who is responsible for the machine. “Currently, we have over 1,000 machines in the field worldwide, and that puts us at about a million actual operating hours in the field with customers. The HB215-1 is actually the second-generation machine, and it is a green machine. It has a hybrid electric system based on an electric swing motor that provides not only fuel savings, but additional power. So, in essence, the hybrid is a green option for the customer, but it’s also a stronger machine as well. We can see anywhere from — on a typical operation on a mixed-use basis — an average of a 25 percent fuel savings based in comparison to our conventional PC 200LC-8.” Davis explained that the 20-ton (18 t) size excavator was chosen for its strategic oppor-

tunity since it is the single largest machine population on the market. “It’s Komatsu’s corporate initiative to get the technology into the customers’ hands so that it is understood and embraced, because there are future plans for expanding the hybrid lineup,” he said. “The technology is scalable. That is within the excavator and even potentially maybe even other product lines as well, so this is our first entry into that size class. It stands the best chance of getting as many machines out there as possible. We feel it’s a good turnkey solution for a customer who wants to have that green footprint image.” Dan Johnson, William Charles’ vice president of equipment, noted that the machine is currently being utilized with the company’s underground pipe crews and has been used throughout the entire season. They acquired it around the middle of May. “It’s been on numerous job sites, but it’s been basically with that division,” he said. “It’s been used for sanitary sewer work and underground work, we’ve used it for electrical conduit, and we try to utilize it for the swinging of the machine. We hope to roll it into the fleet with the rest of our equipment. It’s been a very good machine, and reliable. Up time is a huge part of our business, so it’s been a good machine.” Kittle noted that the benefit of the HB215see HYBRID page 36

MNLA, MTGF Host Northern Green Expo in Minneapolis

he Minnesota Nursery & Landscape Association (MNLA) and the Minnesota Turf and Grounds Foundation (MTGF) held the Northern Green Expo Jan. 4 to 6 at the Minneapolis Convention Center. The event, which gets a great deal of help from “Platinum Supporter” Ziegler CAT, continues to draw more than 7,000 attendees each year. According to MNLA Executive Director Bob Fitch, trade show traffic was the strongest it has been in several years and nearly every education session was standing room only. “While we all know that the economy has a lot of recovery yet to come, there definitely was an uptick in attitude among contractors based upon improved business in 2011 and anticipated growth in 2012,” Fitch said. The next Northern Green Expo is scheduled for Scharber & Sons’ Dan Scharber (L) spends some time Jan. 9 to 11, 2013, at the Minneapolis Convention talking about John Deere equipment, including this John Deere 825i 4x4 XUV with tracks, with Jon Center. Exhibit information is available at Nordrum of MN Equipment Solutions, both of Rogers, www.NorthernGreenExpo.org. Minn.

Finding Johanna: Tribute to One Uncle’s Beloved Niece By Pete Sigmund CEG EDITORIAL CONSULTANT

About 50 relatives in our family had laid plans over several months to meet at a church in the Lower Village of New York City at 5 p.m. on Sept. 10. There, we would begin our observance of the 10th anniversary of the death of Johanna Sigmund, my niece, beneath the North Tower of the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001. She was 25, beautiful, and had always smiled as she gave you her full attention. The next day, a few of us were to visit the World Trade Center Memorial on the site of the Twin Towers, where Johanna was lost. I had been at the hauntingly empty trade center site on the first anniversary of the attack in 2002 when my brother, John, and his wife, Ruth, laid roses at the site of the North Tower to commemorate the loss of their daughter. President Bush had walked forcefully down the ramp to the bare and windblown ground, where he hugged family members who stood around a flower-filled “circle of love.” This would be my first visit since then to a landscape dramatically and movingly improved in a massive construction effort. The years had passed awfully fast. Driving up from my home in Ambler, Pa., (in suburban Philadelphia) with a friend, I was on schedule to meet my nephew, John Sigmund Jr., in Brooklyn on the 10th when, about 3:10 p.m., the left rear tire of my Hyundai Sonata hit a pothole on the Brooklyn Queens Expressway. A flat! Deferred highway maintenance hits home. I rumbled off the expressway to a side street and called John, who was to guide me to the church through the right stops on the subway system. John was the main person coordinating the reunion and had to be at the church on time. We arranged that if I couldn’t get the tire changed by 3:45, he would go ahead. “If we can’t meet, take the F train from Grand Army to West 4th,” he advised. I flagged down a police car. “We need to get to a 9/11 family observance and I have a flat.” “You’re in luck,” said the officer. “There’s a tire shop right around the corner.” You couldn’t miss it. A sign on 39th St. read “Flat Tires Fixed” in large black letters against a yellow background. The owner’s name was Rodriguez. You reached his office through stacks of tires looming overhead. I explained that I was on the way to a 9/11 observance. Coming out to the curb, he looked at the tire. He could have taken advantage of my desperation by trying to sell me a new tire but instead suggested a used one for $35. The pothole had cut the rim in one place. His assistants would look

Our family occupied the first three pews in the white church, built in 1834, with its old-style balconies similar to those in St. Paul’s Chapel and Trinity Church near the trade center site. John and Ruth, who lived in Wyndmoor, Pa., participated in their usual simple, reverent way. I have always marveled at their acceptance through the anguish of losing a beautiful and accomplished daughter. She had completed the New York Marathon in October 2000. John had proudly met her at the finish line. Johanna had been a tri-varsity athlete at the Springside School in Chestnut Hill, Pa. I loved looking at the colorful church windows from the 1870s, knowing that my grandmother, grandfather and mother had looked at the same windows. Our parents, Marie and Paul Sigmund, had six children. (They had met in 1924 after my father, standing forlornly outside a fundraising dance for Al Smith in Washington Square, was invited inside by his future father-in-law, Clarence Ramsey, for a Hyundai rim.

Technology, Safety Standards Could Cost Some States Millions in Federal Funding FUNDS from page 1

truck drivers to get a medical OK from a doctor. Drivers currently carry around their medical certification cards in case they are stopped by a police officer or inspector. Under the federal requirement that kicks in Jan. 30, truck drivers are to begin submitting their medical approval forms to state licensing offices, which are to enter the information in a nationwide database that also tracks things such as invalid licenses and driving violations. “Its whole purpose is just to make sure that the drivers on the road are safe,” said Claire O’Brien, a spokeswoman of the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators. Adding truckers’ medical status to the database was supposed to relieve them of the duty to carry medical cards. But because some states have been slow to implement the requirement, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration plans to continue the card-carrying requirement until Jan. 30, 2014. Some states have had trouble meeting the technological standards needed to submit truckers’ medical certifications into the nationwide database. Colorado, for example, plans to require truck drivers to submit the medical forms to the licensing bureau beginning Jan. 30 but doesn’t expect to be able to enter the information into the database until mid-summer, said Mark Couch, a spokesman of the Colorado Department of Revenue. The Kansas Department of Revenue said it could be a few months after the deadline before its computers are capable of meeting the federal requirement. “We already have information up on our Web site explaining the information they’re going to need to bring in, we just don’t have a date to begin processing,” said Jeannine Koranda, a spokeswoman of the Kansas Department of Revenue. Other states still must change their laws to comply with the federal requirement. Oklahoma, for example, needs to amend its law to disqualify truck drivers who fail to provide medical certificates to the state. But a wide-ranging bill that included the necessary changes was derailed this past year in the Oklahoma Senate. And the Legislature does not reconvene until early February, just after the federal deadline. Oklahoma could lose nearly $20 million if it’s not in compliance with the new requirement, said Mike Patterson, deputy director of the Oklahoma Department of Transportation. “We’re concerned, yes, but we have all the confidence that the Department of Public Safety will be able to get all the proper certifications in place, as they have in the past, to secure the federal funding,” Patterson said. Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon vetoed a bill that would have complied with the federal licensing requirements, because he objected to an unrelated provision that could have allowed more electronic billboards along state highways. Emails between the Missouri governor’s office and the state highway department show Nixon’s staff knew of Jan. 30 deadline and had been told by department personnel that a waiver was unlikely. In August, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration sent Missouri a letter saying states in violation of the medical certification requirements for truck drivers as of Feb. 1 will have to submit a plan demonstrating “an

earnest intent to gain full compliance” on an acceptable timeline or else federal funds could be withheld beginning Oct. 1, 2014. Yet legislators failed to rally the two-thirds majority needed to override Nixon’s veto during a September session. And Nixon didn’t include the commercial driver’s license requirements on the agenda for an autumn special session. The Missouri Department of Transportation said legislation needed to comply with the federal mandate will be one of its top goals for a legislative session that starts Jan. 4.

“We’re concerned, yes, but we have all the confidence that the Department of Public Safety will be able to get all the proper certifications in place, as they have in the past, to secure the federal funding.” Mike Patterson Oklahoma Department of Transportation

It’s important not only to avoid a financial hit but to protect the traveling public, said department director Kevin Keith. If some states get their federal highway funding docked, it won’t be the first time they have been penalized for not complying with federal highway safety standards. Records from the U.S. Department of Transportation show 15 states didn’t comply with the federal government’s minimum penalties for drunken driving in 2011, and 11 states failed to follow federal guidelines to prohibit opencontainers of alcohol in vehicles. As a result, those states had more than $350 million transferred from their road construction funds to highway safety efforts. Missouri, which had about $40 million transferred, was one of just four states — along with Alaska, Louisiana and Wyoming — that were out of compliance with both requirements. Missouri state Sen. Bill Stouffer, a Republican who is chairman of the Senate Transportation Committee, complained “it’s not fair and it’s not right” that the federal government keeps chipping away at road construction funding with financially linked mandates. Although tougher opencontainer laws have repeatedly been filibustered in Missouri, the changes needed to comply with federal standards on drunken driving sentences and commercial driver’s licenses have not been controversial. They just haven’t been enacted. “It’s not a reluctance to get it fixed,” Stouffer said. “It’s just been on a bigger bill that failed. It’s been the victim of the process.”

Finley & Associates were all owned by Mr. Finley,” Howell began. Howell’s journey took him to Miami to work for Florida-Georgia Tractor Co. in 1955. In 1962 he went with H. F. Mason, Albert Finley’s nephew, when he bought part of the corporation and formed H. F. Mason Equipment with headquarters in Lakeland, Fla. Howell spent two years in Miami and then moved to West Palm Beach when that territory opened. “I liked the territory because it was so diversified. I called on the area around the Everglades, Palm Beach, West Palm Beach and the Bahamas. Every day was exciting because every day was different with such a diverse customer base.” Northwest draglines, Cedarapids crushers and pavers, Etnyre distributors and Rogers trailers were the accounts. Howell stayed until 1976 when he was promoted to vice president and sales manager and moved to Lakeland. He spent 10 years in corporate. “In 1985 I went into business for myself and moved back to West Palm Beach. I buy and sell used equipment but specialize in draglines, having started as a dragline salesman in the early 1960s.” He has become known as the “guru” Harold Howell has spent 60 years in the construction equipment industry, 50 of them of draglines to many around the country sales representative. and even outside the United States, which he said he takes as a compliment. “Now there are like 80 auctions going on “In the early days there were no hydraulic Changing Times all over the country.” excavators,” he said. “In the early days a handshake sealed the Export also has become a large part of “The biggest deal and financing Howell’s business. change has been was 25 percent down “When I first started we didn’t do much hydraulic excavaand the balance over export.

SANY Concrete Pump Helps Complete Conveyor Services Last August, small business owner Steve Cottingim began looking for cost effective solutions in his concrete business. Since 2004, Complete Conveyor Services had relied on its fleet of six conveyors to pour foundations for large wind towers, but that changed when the Newark, Illinois-based company took delivery of its first 40 yds. (37 m) SANY concrete pump truck. “The SANY pump truck is very easy to operate and I plan to purchase at least two more by the end of the year,” Cottingim said. “We only pump high-volume jobs and I am really looking forward to pumping 125,000 yards in Texas this month.” Like many small business owners, Cottingim has sought solutions to rising prices in his industry. He admitted he was not expecting to purchase a concrete pump truck at first, but he made the decision after evaluating SANY’s pump trucks against other equipment on the market. “When you run the numbers and consider the reliability of SANY’s concrete pumps, it just makes financial sense to move toward this technology. SANY’s pump truck offers better financial margins than traditional conveyor systems, and the company has a reputation of standing behind its products,” Cottingim said.

That reputation for quality, reliability and support helped SANY win its place on this year’s Financial Times Global 500 list, a global ranking of the largest businesses by market capitalization. As one of the world’s largest heavy equipment manufacturers, SANY also was ranked on the Forbes 2011 Most Innovative Companies list. “When I met with Mr. Cottingim, I knew a SANY pump would fit his needs. Because he pours wind tower foundations, he often works in remote locations and needs equipment that is easy to transport,” said Tom Redding, sales manager of SANY concrete

pumps. “Our 37-meter pump truck offers the right combination of boom length and output volume to let him better serve his customers.” Since entering the U.S. market in 2006, SANY has invested in developing products tailored to the unique demands of the U.S. market. In late August SANY America moved to its new 400,000 sq.-ft. headquarters in Peachtree City, Ga., and the company recently announced plans to build a $25 million research and development center at the location. For more information, call 770/631-8131.

Susan G. Komen for the Cure Receives $6K Donation Doosan Portable Power donated $6,000 to the Charlotte affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure, the leading breast cancer awareness and research organization in the United States. The donation was part of a broader national effort from Doosan Portable Power to support Susan G. Komen and to increase breast cancer awareness. During October, the equipment manufacturer made three pink products available to its North American dealers — a P185 air compressor, G25 mobile generator, and LightSource Compact (LSC) light tower. All Doosan Portable Power dealers in the United States had the chance to purchase one of the three machines to support the cause. Pink Doosan branded merchandise also was available through the Doosan Portable Power Web site with 10 percent of all sales of the pink merchandise going to Susan G. Komen. Doosan Portable Power provided a donation of $2,000 per pink machine, with a total donation of $6,000. Shawn Sweet, president of Doosan Portable Power, and David Stahlman, vice president of global marketing at Doosan Doosan Portable Power donated $6,000 to the Charlotte Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Portable Power, presented a check on Cure. (L-R) are David Stahlman, Shawn Sweet and Jane Cacchione.

behalf of Doosan Portable Power to Jane Cacchione, development and race director at the Charlotte Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure. “Doosan Portable Power is proud to be able to make this donation to Susan G. Komen for the Cure,” said Sweet. “And we hope to be able to continue our support of this effort to find a cure for breast cancer.” Doosan Portable Power product lineup includes generators, air compressors, light towers, and light compaction equipment. Doosan Portable Power has been located in Statesville, N.C., since 2007 and employs more than 500 people. The Charlotte Affiliate is a grant-making organization. In 2011, the organization granted more than $1.7 million towards its mission to save lives and end breast cancer. Locally, Komen Charlotte contributed $1.2 million to 24 non-profit programs within the Komen Charlotte nine county service area to provide vital breast cancer screening, education, and treatment programs directly to the medically underserved, uninsured, or underinsured.

It wraps around the filter housing and reduces or eliminates the possibility of cold weather fuel gelling stopping the engine. It is easily removable and transferable and is wired for your choice of: direct current or alternating current or a convertible model combining dc and ac. A standard 12V or 24V Universal Fuel Filter Preheater is priced at $138. The ‘peel & stick’ Universal Preheater attaches to the bottom or the side of the oil pan and converts the housing into a heat transfer element. It warms the oil without burning it making cold starts easy. It can be used on gearboxes, transmissions, transfer cases, water tanks and even bulk oil tanks. The Preheater plugs into any 120 or 240 volt outlet and consists of a thin silicone fiberglass pad containing a metal grid. To install it, you clean an area on the bottom or side of the oil pan and press the pad onto it, then use silicone to seal the edges of the pad and place a flexible ceramic insulation pad over it. It is available in several models depending on the lube capacity. A 50 watt unit sells for $42 and a 350 watt unit sells for $133.

The pair have been drawing strong reviews from customers who indicate they have gained new skills they can put to work quickly. “We are investing in our training program to provide expanded support to our customers and the marketplace in total,” noted Judie Taylor, Dueco president. “Bill and Adam have significant product knowledge and service expertise and have led training sessions in a variety of formats to suit our partners’ schedules. Their expertise and focus on the customer is helping our partners reduce meantime-to-repair, increasing product utilization and decreasing maintenance costs.” About the Trainers Bill Fisher joined the Dueco team in 2001 and has served as a road service mechanic for ten years. His roots in the utility field started in 1975, when he built and rebuilt utility equipment for Bimco-Bittner, later Atlantico. He became a shop foreman with SMF Truck Equipment and later, a fleet mechanic of Bell Atlantic. Fisher has participated in many Ford, Chevrolet and Terex service schools. He has led service schools for Dueco clients and looks forward to focusing on service training full time to support customer needs.

Adam Krebs joined the Dueco team in 2001 as well. He spent five years as a mechanical installation technician in Dueco’s Waukesha manufacturing and install team followed by five years as an electrical and hydraulic technician in the engineering department. He also has provided technical sup-

port for service and customers and is certified in fluid power mechanics. Prior to joining the company, Krebs worked in automotive repair and engine rebuild. For more information, call 800/558-4004 or visit www.dueco.com.

Dueco has added an additional seminar for 2012 to meet demand. Two-and three-day seminars in 2011 maxed out in attendance.

Volvo Rents Partners Again With Homes for Our Troops Over the course of the eight year long wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the United States sent more than two million Americans overseas to serve at some point. Of those who had served this country, more than 45,000 veterans have returned home with injuries sustained during combat. With this staggering statistic in mind, Volvo Construction Equipment Rents Inc., a worldwide provider of small-to-medium sized construction equipment, is partnering with Homes for Our Troops in 2012 for the second straight year. Through its partnership, Volvo Rents will assist by donating construction equipment for the building of specially adapted homes for injured service members so they can return to a home that affords them independence and freedom. Currently, Volvo Rents is scheduled to help with the build-out of at

least 17 homes in 2012. During its partnership with Homes for Our Troops in 2011, Volvo Rents aided in creating more than a dozen homes for injured U.S. troops. In addition to its partnership with Homes for Our Troops, Volvo Rents also will be donating proceeds to the organization when specially painted construction equipment is rented from participating locations. A number of Volvo Rents stores across the country have painted select equipment, including boom lifts and excavators, in the colors of the American flag. The rental of this equipment will help in Volvo Rents’ continued mission to support the men and women who serve our country overseas. “Based on the reaction and success from our partnership in 2011, we were extremely excited to once again work together with Homes for Our Troops and provide much-

needed aid to injured military members,” said Barry Natwick, CEO of Volvo Rents. “As 2012 progresses, we look forward to further growing our partnership with Homes for Our Troops and getting more Volvo Rents locations nationwide involved with this great cause.” Homes for Our Troops founder John Gonsalves added, ‘Volvo Rents’ contributions to the Homes for Our Troops program have been immeasurable. We are honored to work with Volvo Rents and the other organizations that have helped in lending their support to make Homes for Our Troops a success across the country.” Volvo Rents stores rent an expanding line of Volvo compact equipment such as backhoe and skid steer loaders, compact wheel loaders and compact excavators. Volvo Rents stores also carry an extensive invento-

ry of tools including light towers, generators, pumps, saws, lifts and other equipment. The focus is on daily, weekly and monthly rentals to construction, industrial, commercial and homeowner customers. About Homes for Our Troops Homes for Our Troops is a national nonprofit 501(c)3 organization based in Taunton, Mass., founded by John Gonsalves in 2004. Homes for Our Troops mission is to build specially adapted homes for service members who have been severely injured in combat operations since Sept. 11, 2001. All homes are built at no cost to the veteran through the generous support of individuals, foundations and corporate contributors. Homes for Our Troops has received a Four Star Rating from Charity Navigator.

Smiles, Kindness Followed Families on 9/11 Anniversary JOHANNA from page 18

In one of his e-mails planning our family observance, John Jr. had written: “We honor Johanna’s vibrant life by sharing in the joy and love of each other’s company.” That’s how we all found Johanna that night. John Jr. had offered us his two-bedroom apartment in a brownstone on St. Mark’s Ave. in Brooklyn. (He slept on a couch at the apartment of a relative of Ruth’s, where John and Ruth spent the night.) We returned to Brooklyn via the F train. I slept very soundly (except for a cat meowing at my barred window). We had arranged to meet my brother, John, about 10:15 on Sunday morning, the 11th, at the north entrance to the trade center site to receive a pass to the Sept. 11 Memorial at the once-devastated trade center site. I planned to drive to Manhattan and park some place on Broadway. I asked a middle-aged man named Quinton Silvers who was walking a small dog: “Do you know where the Brooklyn Bridge is?” (I meant did he know the way to the bridge.) “Are you kidding?” he replied. “I’m from Brooklyn. “Don’t drive; take the 2 or 3 train to Chambers St.,” he said with the friendliness, which I experienced everywhere that weekend. Then he reminisced. “I grew up with the Twin Towers,” he said. “They were like a beacon. You would watch them. They would swing and sway. We always connected them with the number 11. ‘Look at 11 in the sunset,’ we would say. My son’s godmother was crossing the Brooklyn Bridge, on the way to the hospital to have her baby, when she saw the first plane hit. She made it to the hospital. Now she has a son whose birthday is 9/11.” We took the 2 train and asked a young man in a fireman’s blue dress uniform about the best stop for the trade center. His name was Brendan Gorman. “I am one of three sons who are firemen,” he said. “My father and grandfather were also firemen. I completed my training the day before 9/11. We all partied that night. I wasn’t scheduled to work on 9/11 itself since graduation was scheduled that evening. Instead, 9/11 turned out to be my first day as a regular fireman. I had to go into buildings and look for people. As we carried one person, covered with grey soot, out on a gurney, I fell into a hole and injured my leg and had to be helped out myself. Our ladder company 105 lost seven men that day. Today, we’ll march back across the Brooklyn Bridge carrying seven flags for the seven men. The 10year anniversary is the pinnacle. I’m afraid 9/11 will be more and more on the back burner, like Pearl Harbor.”

Komatsu Hybrid Proves Itself as ‘Quiet, Powerful Machine’ HYBRID from page 10

1 is that it is a more productive machine, and the fuel efficiency is far superior. “It would be one thing simply to have the machine, but if you lost productivity, that would be a non-starter for us,” he said. “Productivity still charges the decision-making, simply because, although we want to be a good environmental steward, we have to do it in a profitable way. With the initial cost of the investment, there are two return streams in the HB215-1, which is unique. In this case, we get two returns. We get substantial fuel savings as well as an increase in productivity, and that is ideal in our circumstance.” Kittle offered his praise for Komatsu technology. “It’s world class,” he said. “Some of the Tier IV Interim technology that I’ve seen is really world class, and we get the opportunity to incorporate that into our fleet. It has been very well received, and our hope going forward is that we continue to find those kinds of opportunities for simultaneously increasing our tier profile on our fleet. And so, our hope is that Komatsu would add this technology to the entire excavator product line, because we see a very solid return of the additional investment.” Johnson noted that the operation of the machine isn’t very different from a normal excavator, so it doesn’t take a lot of time for operators to get used to it. “The initial getting in the seat took a little bit of time, but once they got past that, they liked the machine,” he said. “They’ve mentioned that the cab is really comfortable, and the controls are well placed. When we first took it out, we had a couple of hours of training that was provided.” One of the noticeable differences is that the hybrid is quieter. “When you normally operate a machine, you use the sound as a subconscious input, so you don’t really think about it,” said Najera. “With the hybrid running at a lower engine RPM because of that additional electrical stored energy, it’s able to run at that lower RPM so the engine does not have the same sound profile. So initially, if an operator doesn’t put his finger on it, he can’t figure out what’s missing. That was part of the role in training — to point that out so they know they’re not going to hear it and they should try to adjust for it. The operator is expecting to hear certain engine sounds and he’s not, so he has to somehow get used to that — almost unlearn it. “One thing that Komatsu was very conscious of in developing the hybrid was making the technology as seamless as possible. The worst thing we could have done was put in a new seat, a new cab, a new monitor panel, new joysticks … Right now, if you sit

in the machine, there are times that you probably forget you’re in the hybrid. And that was our goal — to try to make it as transparent and seamless as possible so that any typical operator can get in, and with a little bit of instruction, can just take off on his own.” Johnson noted that even though the hybrid is quieter, it is still a very powerful machine. “People think that if they’re not hearing this loud engine roar all the time, the machine is not going to have the power that this HB215 does have,” he said. “It has every bit of power that a conventional machine has. It’s quick and very powerful.” Najera explained that the hybrid system is based on an electric swing motor, making it

“This machine is a rare case of making a right investment for the right reasons,” he said. “There are multiple streams of return for the added investment, and the hybrid technology that Komatsu has incorporated can be accepted globally. You have to be very specific about the technology and how it’s being applied and what it’s doing to make it worthwhile. We’re not going to invest in an entire fleet of Tier IV machines all at one time simply to be green. We’d be out of business. But this technology specifically is a great investment.” About Roland Machinery Roland Machinery is responsible for the machine in Illinois. The company has been

very similar to a hybrid car system. “As the machine upper structure swings and slows down, during the braking part of the swing, the swing motor is actually generating electricity and storing it, which then allows us to use that stored energy to do the work,” he said. “That additionally stored energy gives the hybrid up to an additional 60 horsepower that it can add to the hydraulic system on an on-demand basis. So essentially, that’s what the operators are seeing, and it’s helping them see the additional power and productivity because of that hybrid boost in reserve energy.” Kittle noted that the acquisition of more hybrid machines will be discussed in the company’s budget planning. He explained that if there is a choice to invest a little more today and through technology get a more productive machine with a resulting return such as fuel consumption, that’s an investment his company would like to make.

GOMACO Commander III Takes on Difficult Tunnel Job A massive construction project has been underway deep in the heart of the Schnecktal valley area in Germany. From the surface, though, you would never be able to tell. The majority of the work is underground as a joint-venture team led by German contractor Wayss & Freytag Ingenieurbau AG builds the nearly 4.3 mi. (7 km) long Finne Tunnel. After a few years of tunnel boring operations, the contractor is at work finishing the interior of the tunnel, slipforming first the tunnel’s floor and then a walkway with its GOMACO Commander III. Finne Tunnel is just one section of a new 76 mi. (123 km) high-speed rail link between the cities of Leipzig and Erfurt, Germany. Initial construction on the twinbore tunnel began in April 2008. Two tunnel boring machines (TBMs) worked at the same time boring the 35.4 ft. (10.8 m) diameter shafts. Peak TBM production rates reached up to 80 ft. (24.5 m) per day. The high-speed trains traveling along the new route will reach speeds up to 186 mi./hr. (300 km/hour), capable of exerting huge pressure waves within the tunnel walls. Such high speeds and resulting pressure waves dictated the large external diameter of the tunnels. The internal, lined diameter is 31.5 ft. (9.6 m) and was formed using precast concrete lining segments or rings. They were cast onsite and each ring was 6.6 ft. (2 m) long, 17.7 in. (45 cm) thick and weighed 12 tons. A total of 6822 rings were needed to line the new tunnels. In September 2009, the first TBM “holed through.” The second one followed it a few months later when it broke through in February 2010, six months ahead of schedule. Work was far from being completed, though. “Because of the sequence, we were left with two circular pipes nearly 4.3 mi. long rather than tunnels,” Gerhard Baumgartner, Segment Engineer for the Joint Venture said. It was time to start the slipforming phase within the tunnels. Representatives from Wayss & Freytag worked with GOMACO International Ltd. to determine which paver would suit their tunnel applications. They chose the GOMACO Commander III. The Commander III would first pave the tunnel floor in four-track mode. Then, it would be converted onsite to a three-track paver to slipform the tunnel’s walkway. The decision also was made early in the design phase to use the Leica Geosystems 3D control system. Setting and maintaining stringline within the tight confines of the tunnel would be nearly impossible, and the stringless system would alleviate those concerns. The concrete for the various tunnel applications was provided by an on-site mobile batch plant with a 105 cu. yd. (80 cu m) per

drove in forward gear on the completed tunnel floor to a turntable at the end of the section. The turntable then rotated the three-axle trucks 180 degrees so they could drive in reverse to the paver, dump their load of concrete in front of the Commander III, and then drive out of the tunnel in forward gear. Between six to eight trucks carrying 10.5 cu. yds. (8 cu m) loads of concrete transported the material to the Commander III. “The tunnel floor is 19.7 ft. wide,” Korndörfer said. “In the circular tunnel, at its deepest point in the center, the floor was 41.3 in. We turned all four tracks on the Commander III to 35 degree angles so the paver could drive on the round walls.” The slipform mold was designed for a drainage channel in the tunnel floor. The channel measured 7.1 in. (18 cm) deep and 28.3 in. (72 cm) wide at the top tapering down to 21.3 in. (54 cm) wide at the bottom. A height tolerance of plus or minus 0.4 in. (1 cm) had to be met on the new tunnel floor to ensure the accurate installation of the future track rail. Control measurements confirmed the new concrete tunnel floor was always within the specified height tolerances. “The achieved vertical accuracy of plus or minus 0.1 in. by far outperformed the required accuracy of a maximum plus or minus 0.4 in.,” said Baumgartner. In total, 36,623 cu. yds. (28,000 cu m) of concrete was slipformed in each 4.3 mi. (7 km) long tunnel to build the floor of the tunnels. Both production and quality of the finished product exceeded expectations. The second phase of slipforming within the Finne Tunnel project involved Wayss & Freytag converting their Commander III to a three-track paver to slipform a walkway against one wall of each tunnel. GOMACO built a variable height, variable width walkway mold and hopper to accommodate the varying line of the tunnel. “The line of the train track must be 100 Two Leica Geosystems’ total stations, one to the left and one to the right, track the percent accurate and its placement is considCommander III as it completes slipforming the concrete floor in the first of two tunered sacred,” Korndörfer said. “The walknels on the project. way mold had to be able to accommodate the changing alignment of the tunnel, tunnel hour capacity and is located just outside of could begin.

Roadtec Unveils New Tier IVi Emission Technology Pavers

The new Tier IVi track paver from Roadtec.

Roadtec’s 10 ft. (3 m) standard asphalt paver models have received a major redesign, which comprises Tier IVi emission technology and many additional upgrades and improvements. The new pavers carry the designation “e” behind the model numbers and are called the RP-190e rubber-tired highway class paver and the RP-195e track highway class paver. Models that are sold into certain export markets without Tier IVi standards will carry the designation “ex” behind the model number. Improved operator visibility and easier access to service points are among the improvements found with the new models. Moreover, the operator stations have been redesigned to provide the operator greater efficiency and comfort, including hydraulic-pivot consoles and selectable seat positions. Among the numerous design refinements are new adjustable delta plate design, redesigned hydraulic tunnel panels for improved accessibility, and increased fuel capacity from 120 to 135 gal. (454 to 511 L). Conveyor chains have been beefed up and are of the heavy-duty offset type. Tough floor plates are made from wear resistant chromium carbide and drop in without bolts. A new dual hinge apron plate design allows easy access and clean-out. Access to hydraulic filters and test ports has been greatly improved by clustering these components in one easily accessed location. Release agent spray-down systems are now standard and include a dual system; one for diesel, the other for release agent. Cat C7.1 Tier IV Interim, 225 hp (168 kW) @1800 rpm engines power the pavers.

Consistent straight-line micro-milled pattern produced by Roadtec’s new cutter drum.

With new DOT specs for thinner friction courses, proper surface preparation is more important than ever. Delaminating of thin courses is likely when surfaces are prepared with conventional milling. What’s more, water can get trapped in the valleys of a conventionally milled surface, leading to premature pavement failure. In thin overlay applications micro-milling is required for good results. Roadtec now offers a cutter that produces a fine, straight-line pattern, which neither deviates with changes in travel speed nor machine stops for truck changes. DOT tests

of the surface have been passed consistently with this cutter. Moreover, the milled surface’s texture is extremely safe for cars and motorcycles alike when opened to traffic before paving begins, according to the manufacturer. Tooth consumption is extremely low with this product. On a recent job consisting of 5 mi. (8 km) of roadway (10 lanes mi. [16 km]), 1 in. (2.5 cm) removal with a micro finish, and an average travel speed of 48.5 fpm (14.7 mpm) and as high as 70 fpm (21.3 mpm), zero teeth were changed during the 5day project.

Customers, Deere Engineers Team Up to Launch 755K Crawler Loader

The 755K crawler loader has powertrain and track system technology designed for Deere’s new 850K crawler dozer.

Built from the ground up by customer collaboration with Deere engineers, the new 755K crawler loader features productivity enhancements and a new ITIV-certified diesel engine to help contractors to get more work done with less noise and fewer emissions, according to the manufacturer. Capitalizing on the loader design, track systems and comfortable cabs engineered for its dozers and K-Series loaders, the 755K is quiet, comfortable and easy to operate. Helping customers meet the latest local emissions regulations and bid specifications, it also has been updated with a John Deere ITIV-certified engine. Dozens of customers worked closely with Deere product development on the 755K. “Our customers spoke, and we listened,” said Dan Drescher, crawler product marketing manager of John Deere Construction & Forestry. “The 755K incorporates several enhancements that not only increase productivity, but respond to individual operator preferences, such as the V-pattern or joystick transmission control option. There’s also a rear ripper design to help turn materials, a viscous-mounted cab for noise suppression and increased serviceability to make daily maintenance easier.” Many of the contractors that collaborated with Deere on the 755K design also asked for a crawler loader built in the United States. “General excavating and earthmoving contractors now have a North American-built crawler loader tailored to their needs that can easily tackle a wide variety of regional terrain conditions,” Drescher said. The 755K crawler loader has powertrain and track system technology designed for Deere’s new 850K crawler dozer.

Together with an ITIV-certified engine, the crawler loader reaches performance targets for hydraulic hp, lift capacity, drawbar pull and engine power boost. “With 190 hp, the 755K also has a higher maximum hinge pin clearance than the competition, more dump clearance and more static tipping load capacity,” said Drescher. “The bottom-line result is greater productivity.” The 755K also features a number of cab improvements to increase operator comfort. The viscous cab mounting reduces noise from vibration while double-laminated rear window glass and complete interior sound-dampening treatment significantly reduce noise levels. Other cab conveniences include a sealed switch module with keyless start, security mode with auto shutdown and a diagnostic monitor that’s both easy to read and provides machine condition information at a glance. “Not only is the 755K easy to operate, it’s also easy to service,” Drescher said. “We find that the easier a unit is to service on a daily basis, the more likely it is that the service will get done. That means more uptime, more productivity and more earning power for our customers.” Among several easy maintenance features on the 755K is Deere’s NeverGrease pins in its loader bucket linkage, which eliminate time-consuming, messy greasing. Service points also have been color-coded for easy identification, fluid sampling valves are now standard, and under the iron, operators will find hinged belly pans and improved access. Deere’s Quad-Cool system also features a tilt-out grille and fan for simplified core cleanout, while separate hydrostatic and hydraulic reservoirs prevent the possibility of oil cross-contamination.

$6.3M Project Will Remove, Build Bridge BRIDGE from page 1

One such project resides in Clay Center of Clay County. This $6.3 million preservation job calls for the removal of the old U.S. 24 bridge over Huntress Creek, and the construction of a new bridge. The existing bridge was deemed functionally obsolete in 2009, with a sufficiency rating of 60.3 out of 100. (www.bridgehunter.com) Prime contractor A.M. Cohron & Son Inc., of Atlantic, Iowa, and their subcontractors began work in August 2011, with repairs to the future detour route through Clay Center on Court Street. On the one-mile detour, workers installed new signal lights, made repairs to a bridge and applied an asphalt overlay. The detour went into effect on Jan. 11, 2012 and demolition of the existing bridge followed shortly thereafter. All bridge work on the detour and U.S. 24 is being handled by Cohron. The Court Street bridge rehabilitation required 270 cu. yds. (525 tons) of concrete, and the new U.S. 24 structure will use 1,000 cu. yds. (1,960 tons) of concrete. The town of Clay Center is divided north/south by Huntress Creek and has two bridges (U.S. 24 and Court Street) crossing the creek. The existing U.S. 24 bridge was built over a railroad track and Huntress Creek in 1936, moving the highway alignment from Court Street. The railroad was abandoned and the tracks were removed in the early 1990s. Several options were reviewed for potential detours during the replacing of the U.S. 24 structure including a shoofly detour, use of Court Street and an asphalt road detour without posted bridges which was over 60 mi. (96.6 km) in length. After several public meetings and discussions with the City of Clay Center, the Court Street detour was determined to be the desired route. This directed traffic past an elementary school and a retirement area of town with residence in the retirement towers living on one side of the detour and their garages on the other. To add safety to the elderly and to the school children, several sets of signal lights were included in the detour portion of the project and will not be removed upon project completion. With the commercial businesses being split east and west of Huntress Creek, there is significant localized traffic traveling between the downtown Courthouse and business area and the recreational, commercial and manufacturing areas on the west side of town. “While the detour adds little distance

The U.S. 24 bridge over Huntress Creek will be reduced from 566 to 380 ft. (172.5 to 116 m) long, with a 10-ft. (3 m) height reduction, now that it no longer needs to provide train clearance.

to travel, the increased traffic on a narrower roadway with lower speed limits will remind many of travel from daysgone-by when it was best not to be in a hurry when traveling through town,” said Dale Hershberger, KSDOT area engineer. With the single crossing of Huntress Creek, there are also concerns for what to do in case there is an accident blocking this route, especially immediately after sporting events like football or baseball. Alternative options for fire and ambulance have been reviewed. These concerns have also played into some of the options available to the contractor as the project sequencing has been reviewed and the contractor arrived at the best schedule for his work forces, as well as meeting the needs of the community. The annual average daily traffic (AADT) on U.S. 24 near this bridge is over 6,000 vehicles per day (vpd), while just two miles outside of Clay Center on U.S. 24, the AADT is under 2000 vpd. Thus most of the traffic crossing this structure is local traffic traveling to work, to restaurants or to businesses. International manufacturer of grain augers, Hutchinson-Mayrath, is located in Clay Center and employs more than

250 people. The new bridge is 380 ft. (115.8 m) long and replaces the existing 566 ft. (172.5 m) long bridge. The structure will also be about 10 ft. (3 m) lower because it no longer has to provide clearance to trains. Shilling Construction Co. Inc. of Manhattan, Kan., was subcontracted for 6,133 tons (5,562.6 t) of asphalt work. Amino Brothers Co. Inc., based in Kansas City, is excavating 14,000 cu. yds. (10,710 cu m) of dirt. Whitewing Construction, Inc. of Newton is in charge of concrete pavement and sidewalks. Crews will use 225 tons (204 t) of 10 in. (25.4 cm) concrete pavement material. IES Industrial Inc. dba Kayton Electric of Salina is providing lighting and traffic signals. Roadsafe Traffic Systems Inc., based in El Dorado, was contracted for pavement marking and traffic control. KSDOT plans to open the new bridge for traffic in November 2012, at which time the Court Street detour will be removed. Clean-up and landscaping will wrap up in spring 2013.

Pipeline Could Prove Huge Factor in U.S. Senate Races PIPELINE from page 1

American Energy” event. “A determination to decide anything less than that I believe will have huge political consequences.” Gerard said the oil group has teamed up with at least 15 unions to support the pipeline, which would create thousands of jobs. “We will stand shoulder to shoulder” with labor unions that have backed the pipeline, including the Teamsters and the AFL-CIO’s Building and Construction Trades Department, Gerard said. “Over the next 60 days, they will not be silent,” he said. Gerard repeatedly referred to the Keystone pipeline at his annual speech assessing the energy industry, calling it the business group’s top near-term priority. While the pipeline has not been a focus of the GOP race for president, Gerard said the issue has the potential to become a major factor in the general election. “It’s already an election issue” in the presidential race and is likely to be a focus of several U.S. Senate races, Gerard said, calling the pipeline the largest “shovel-ready” project in the country. The pipeline, proposed by Calgary-based TransCanada, would carry oil derived from tar sands in western Canada to refineries in Texas, passing through Montana, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma. TransCanada said the pipeline could create as many as 20,000 jobs over two years, a figure opponents say is inflated. A State Department report last summer said the pipeline would create up to 6,000 jobs during construction. The pipeline proposal has forced the White House to make a politically risky choice between two key Democratic constituencies. Many unions back the project as a job creator in a down economy, while environmental groups fear it could lead to an oil spill disaster. A payroll tax law signed by Obama just before Christmas includes a Republicansponsored provision that sets a Feb. 21 deadline for Obama to decide on the pipeline. The administration is warning it would rather say no than rush a decision in an election year. Environmental advocates, already disap-

pointed with Obama’s failure to achieve climate change legislation and his decision to delay new smog standards, have made it clear that approval of the pipeline would dampen their enthusiasm in his bid for reelection. Some liberal donors even threatened to cut off funds to Obama’s re-election campaign to protest the project, which opponents say would transport “dirty oil” that requires (L-R): Ziegler CAT Territory Manager Tony Thooft greets Jose Rocha Sr., grounds huge amounts of energy to extract. crew, and Mechanical Engineer Kim Huebscher of the Somerset Country Club, Somerset, Wis., at the Ziegler CAT Booth.

“Clearly, the Keystone XL pipeline is in the national interest. A determination to decide anything less than that I believe will have huge political consequences...”

If he rejects the pipeline, Obama risks losing support from organized labor, a key part of the Democratic base, for thwarting jobs. Obama appeared to have skirted what some dubbed the “Keystone conundrum” in November when the State Department announced it was postponing a decision on the pipeline until after this year’s election. Officials said they needed extra time to study routes that avoid an environmentally sensitive area of Nebraska that supplies water to eight states. The affected area stretches just 65 mi. (105 km) through the Sandhills region of northern Nebraska, but the concerns were serious enough that the state’s governor and senators opposed the project until the pipeline was moved. Republican Gov. Dave Heineman, who opposed the initial route, said he supports efforts to accelerate the project, noting that provisions in the payroll tax bill allow the project developer to find a new route avoiding the Sandhills. There was no immediate response from the White House.

An Oregon excavating contractor has found that a 2D guidance system from Leica Geosystems improved the productivity of an excavator by 30 percent when cutting slopes to a precise grade. About a year ago, Pihl Inc., a grading and excavation contractor based in Banks, Ore., bought the PowerDigger Plus guidance system from Leica Geosystems and fitted it onto a Kobelco 235 excavator. The system features a display screen in the cab that shows actual bucket position relative to the design grade. “The guidance system has done a very nice job for us,” said Matt Pihl, owner of the company. “We use it to cut a lot of slopes. If you have a certain slope to cut, it has to be done precisely. You can make a big mistake if you make one gouge into the slope. “The PowerDigger makes our excavator 30 percent faster when you’re on the final grade,” said Pihl. “But the best thing is that it eliminates a grade checker. That saves us significant money. And it’s safer, because you don’t have somebody walking around the moving equipment.” Pihl recently used the guidance system to help cut a 1:1 slope involved in the site

preparation for Progress Ridge, a 14-acre retail shopping plaza in Beaverton, Ore. The big 1:1 slope measures 30 vertical ft. (9 m) from top to bottom and is 400 ft. (122 m) long. To cut the slope, Pihl used two excavators — a Komatsu PC 450 and the Kobelco 235 with the PowerDigger guidance system. The Komatsu began the mass excavation by loading two off-road trucks and building a bench about half-way down the tall slope. Next Pihl positioned the Leica-equipped excavator on the bench and cut the 1:1 slope exactly to grade. “Then we cut out the first bench with the big excavator, and also used it to cut a second and final bench below the first,” said Tomas Zilka, Pihl’s surveying manager. “After that we could move the Kobelco down to the second bench and finish cutting out the slope. Zilka was pleased with the PowerDigger Plus. “For our purposes it is absolutely perfect,” he said. For more information, visit www.leica-geosystems.com/machinecontrol.

Caterpillar Items Draw Big Bids at Ritchie Bros. Sale

itchie Bros. held an auction Dec. 2 in Medford, Minn. The marquee item of the sale was a 2010 Caterpillar 345DL hydraulic excavator that sold for an auction high $300,000. Other highlights included a 2008 Caterpillar 160M VHP Plus motorgrader that sold for $195,000 and a 2006 A very brave Paul Kottschade goes hatless in the Kawasaki 115ZV wheel loader that brought in a winning bid Minnesota cold while looking over the excavators of $127,500. and lowboys, like this Landoll Haul All.

This John Deere 892ELC excavator caught the attention of Arrowhead Services’ Blast and Paint Foreman Daniel Fuerte, who believes machines last longer and look better when they have been repainted properly.

Rochester Asphalt President Royal Johnson (L) and Concrete Specialist Kyle Burns bought a couple of lowboy trailers, a chipper and a roller and are thinking of adding this Cat 160M grader before they call it a day.

Atlas Copco Receives International Acclaim for Innovation, Sustainability Atlas Copco has received international acclaim for its innovative and sustainable business practices. The latest honors include listings in Newsweekâ€™s Green Rankings and Thomson Reutersâ€™ Top 100 Global Innovators. â€œSince August of this year, Atlas Copco AB has been recognized by Newsweek, Thomson Reuters and Forbes for innovative and sustainable business practices, along with strengthening our position in a ranking of global industrial equipment manufacturers measured by the quality of the companiesâ€™ patent portfolios,â€? said Mark Cohen, president of Atlas Copco North America LLC. â€œThese acknowledgements show that not only is it possible to be an environmental steward while operating a successful and innovative manufacturing company, but that our global leaders embrace and incorporate innovation and sustainability in everyday business practices on every level.â€? Newsweekâ€™s Green Rankings iden-

tify companies as global leaders who â€œcut through the green chatterâ€? and incorporate policies, practices and programs that foster environmental well-being. Newsweekâ€™s ranking, unveiled on Oct. 16, 2011, listed Atlas Copco No. 161 among global companies, No. 15 among Capital Goods companies and third among companies with headquarters in Sweden. Newsweek derived the global companiesâ€™ Green Scores based on a number of factors, including an Environmental Impact Score, an Environmental Management Score and an Environmental Disclosure Score. Thomson Reutersâ€™ Top 100 Global Innovators is a new list of the worldâ€™s 100 most innovative companies. The list is based on an examination of the intellectual property of all companies or organizations that have had 100 patents or more approved in the past three years. The most innovative companies were singled out based on the success of their patent applications, the global scope of the patents and

most importantly, the influence these patents have had on other companiesâ€™ inventions. These latest accolades from Newsweek and Thomson Reuters add to a growing list of awards and thirdparty validation that acknowledge Atlas Copcoâ€™s commitment to sustainable and creative business practices. Forbes magazine in August named Atlas Copco AB No. 67 among the Top 100 most innovative companies in the world, and Atlas Copco will again be included in the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index for 2011. Additionally this year, Atlas Copco strengthened its position in a ranking by The Patent Board of global industrial equipment manufacturers, which measures the quality of the companiesâ€™ patent portfolios; Atlas Copco was No. 13 on this list of 119 companies, moving up from its No. 23 ranking the previous year.

TR-26 Withstands Rigors of Myriad Drilling Conditions Along with most business owners, foundation and caisson drilling companies are doing their best to reduce costs during these stressful economic times. One way to make an improvement to the bottom line, would be to use Errickson’s TR-26 casing advancement system, which allows users to advance casing and hammer through rock, simultaneously. Manufactured in the United States, the Errickson casing advancement system is engineered to include large tapered roller bearings, Martin sprockets, Brovini drive motors and Garlock sealing. Each unit is hand built under the direction of its designer, Jon Errickson. He also maintains an extensive manufacturing facility with all the equipment and skill to keep each unit in house, from start to finish. “Since 1977, we have drilled in almost all geological conditions,” said Errickson, who owns and operates Precision Drilling Inc., a New Jerseybased foundation drilling company. “I’ve spent an enormous amount of The Errickson TR-26 casing advancement allows advancing the casing and time and effort leading up to our TR-26 system hammer through rock simultaneously. prototype, and feel we’ve finally put together a unit that can withstand the rigors of any drilling condition.

The Commander III’s tracks were turned to 35 degree angles to pave inside the circular tunnel. The floor’s profile was slipformed with a 28.3 in. (72 cm) wide drainage channel.

between 3.4 ft. (1.05 m) up to 5.7 ft. (1.75 m). Height of the walkway was variable also, from 23.6 in. (60 cm) up to 37.4 in. (95 cm). Hydraulic pressure-compensated cylinders controlled the changes. A finishing roller, mounted to the back of the mold, helped provide the finish to the walkway’s surface and eliminate the need for handfinishing. A service channel in the surface of the walkway profile was slipformed 3.3 in. (8.5 cm) wide by 2.8 in. (7 cm) tall. Lighting conductor strips will eventually be placed in the keyway, tested to make sure they are operational, and then covered and sealed. The keyway allows the strips to be removed and replaced as needed without damaging the profile of the walkway. A two percent cross slope across the top surface ensures proper water drainage off the walkway. “The walkway was a much more challenging profile to slipform than the tunnel floor,” Korndörfer explained. “It had to be placed with 100 percent accuracy and the Commander III slipformed the walkway

very well. We had no problems and were able to achieve production rates from 558 to 656 ft. (170 to 200 m) per day. “The problem with the tolerances in the walkway and the need for the walkway mold to change size was one of the biggest challenges we faced on the project. Our other challenge was the logistics of getting concrete into the tunnel. We were able to devise solutions for both problems and achieve a quality product. Our GOMACO with the Leica system has done a good job and worked well.” Wayss & Freytag is on schedule to complete their portion of the Finne Tunnel by the end of this year. Other contractors will then start work placing the track and installing the electrical and other systems. The entire Erfurt to Leipzig line will be operational in 2015 and will be part of a high-speed connection from Munich to Berlin, Germany. Ultimately, the line will run all the way from the countries of Scandinavia to Italy. This article was reprinted with permission from GOMACO World Magazine, Volume 39, Number 2.
