Volvo CE Delivers Its Version of ‘Factory 4 Tomorrow’
Across 14 sites around the world, smart factory teams have been set up, tasked with looking for ways to innovate and impact the business.
The Fourth Industrial Revolution is occurring at a speed that has never been seen before. It has the potential to change everything. For Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE), it’s an opportunity not only for digital transformation, but to build a future that we all want to live and work in. The Fourth Industrial Revolution, or Industry 4.0 — which was first identified by Klaus Schwab, founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum in his book of the same name — is revolutionizing the way companies manufacture, improve and distribute their products. Volvo CE is embracing the change and putting the power for innovation directly in the hands of its employees with a vision of the future it’s calling Factory 4 Tomorrow (F4T). Explaining the company’s approach, Lina Stålberg, manufacturing technology development and governance at Volvo CE, said, “For us, Factory 4 Tomorrow is about far more than just introducing new technologies, there’s a far higher purpose behind it. It’s about building a world we want to live in and workplaces we want to work in.” Across 14 sites around the world, smart factory teams have been set up, tasked with looking for ways to innovate and impact the business. Working closely with others at the site,
these teams are actively seeking ways to solve everyday business problems and challenges with the help of exciting new technologies, such as IoT, AI and machine learning. They will be experimenting and testing to generate new ideas and ways of working. It will be a complete overhaul of every production detail and the innovations that are explored could very well become a reality on the factory floor in the coming years. Automation in the factories and offices, for example, will reduce the need for employees to engage in repetitive tasks, creating a safer and more ergonomic work environment. Lina added: “To be successful, it’s critical to create the right culture for change. We want our people to be excited by the possibilities new technologies can deliver and the solutions they can provide to real problems they might face in their day-to-day jobs and lives. That’s why our approach is collaborative and very much bottom-up. We’re empowering our employees to help enact change.” Brunno Muller, head of advanced manufacturing engineering and research at Volvo CE, said, “Our role is very much to facilitate good dialogue and collaboration and provide
Factory 4 Tomorrow will explore new technologies and ways of working to make manufacturing more sustainable.
coaching and mentoring to help guide the site teams on their journeys. We hold the big picture, but it is up to the individual sites to identify areas for change. It’s very inspiring to see how engagement in Factory 4 Tomorrow is growing across the entire organization, from employees all the way up to leaders. And with it, we are all developing
new skills and competencies.” As well as creating an attractive workplace, Factory 4 Tomorrow will transform manufacturing processes at Volvo CE, delivering significant benefits for customers, many of whom are demanding more customization and more individualized products. Due to globalization and new technologies, flexibility and speed of change are becoming ever more important. A digital transformation will accelerate Volvo CE’s lean journey towards operational excellence. Optimized manufacturing also will bring sustainability benefits, helping to reduce Volvo CE’s industrial footprint. “At Volvo CE, our mindset is very much based on collaboration, both internally between teams and across sites, as well as externally with customers, suppliers and partners. We cannot build the future we want by ourselves. We need to step away from silo thinking and consider how we do this endto-end, joining forces with partners and sharing experiences,” Muller said.

Astec Industries Launches Rebrand to Simplify Business Model, Drive Growth
Astec Industries Inc. is launching a new modern look with a rebranding initiative to coincide with its business model. The rebrand includes a new logo, color palette and website. The launch comes while the organization streamlines its internal structure and operations to improve efficiency and drive growth. The organization’s former brands, including Astec Inc., Astec do Brasil, Astec Australia, BMH Systems, Breaker Technology, Carlson Paving, Con-E-Co, Heatec, KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens, Osborn, Peterson,
RexCon, Roadtec and Telsmith, will no longer operate as separate subsidiary companies and will all take on the ASTEC name. The unification is a significant part of the company’s OneASTEC business model including its “Simplify, Focus and Grow” strategy. “We made the decision to unify to make it easier for our dealers and customers to do business with us. By coming together as one organization, we can offer greater customer service and drive innovation,” said Barry Ruffalo, president and CEO of Astec Industries,
Inc. “The rebrand enables us to build our strength together under one common name and purpose. We can better leverage our growth as one Astec team rather than individual brands.” The logo represents the company’s purpose: ‘Built to Connect’ and vision to connect people, processes and products. The new website (www.astecindustries.com) replaces the previous subsidiary websites. Dealers, customers, suppliers and consumers will be able to find information about the company, its product offerings and other resources in one location.

“The Nation’s Best Read Construction Newspaper… Founded in 1957.” Your Arizona Connection – Sharon Swanson – 1-760-518-4336 – sswanson@cegltd.com
Crews Replacing Historic Route 66 Rio de Flag Bridge Crews are installing precast bridge girders and pouring a new bridge deck for the Historic Route 66 Rio de Flag bridge project.
The Rio de Flag Flood Control Project is a 20-year effort between the city of Flagstaff and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to prevent life/safety hazards and property damage caused by significant flood events in Flagstaff. It is a $122M project with 65 percent of funding provided by the Army Corps. The Arizona Department of Transportation recently closed Historic Route 66 to make way for the start of construction. Crews are installing precast bridge girders and pouring a new bridge deck. Fabricating the bridge components ahead of time as opposed to building them in place allows the work to be executed more quickly, reducing the time needed to replace the bridge and
impacts to traffic. ADOT Resident Engineer Nate Reisner said using those precast bridge components greatly reduces the time needed for closures. “Basically, with this project, we built a big Lego set,” Reisner said in an interview with the Arizona Daily Sun. “We’re going to come in here and we're going to set those concrete blocks and make a new bridge.” Before construction started, crews spent time relocating pre-existing utilities in the area such as sewage pipes and cable lines. “So that's what people have seen, the sideways drilling that looked like it was foundation work maybe for the bridge, but it wasn’t,” Reisner said in the interview. “It was utility relocation that had nothing to do
with it.” Construction along the Rio de Flag and Clay Avenue Wash will increase the capacity of the channel and significantly reduce flooding in neighborhoods such as Southside. Project scope and benefits include: • Increasing the capacity of the Rio de Flag channel to contain the 100-year storm event; • Construction of underground and surface flood way structures; • Construction of a composite channel (both above and below ground) in the Upper Reach north of City Hall to provide stormwater surface flow; • Realignment of the primary floodway to the south of the BNSF Railway cor-
ridor to reduce the amount of stormwater in the Southside neighborhood; • Utility relocations, landscaping and re-vegetation, and street reconstruction; • Neighborhood stormwater connections will be reconstructed with the project, or planned as future improvements as needed. Project Potential Once completed, this project has the potential to prevent damage to approximately 1,500 structures in Flagstaff, valued at more than $916 million. The project also will remove the probability of $93 million in economic damages due to flooding and remove restrictive requirements for floodplain redevelopment.

MB Crusher Helps Every Site Become Recycling Centers Produce your building material, using your heavy equipment, wherever the job site is located. This is the easiest solution for many companies now that procurement is becoming more complex, expensive and it takes longer. And it is also the practical solution when the construction sites are located in areas where heavy vehicles have a hard time reaching it, where there aren’t connecting roads or in historical centres with traffic restrictions. For example, in Bulgaria, a company had to demolish an old house and had limited When a landslide damaged the Santo Spirito bridge in Italy, an MB crusher and screening bucket helped the contractor exceed standards. space.

They saved time and reduced their expenses: they didn’t need to process the material further by transporting it and repurchase it from the recycling centre or a quarry. The result? A material that all companies can obtain on-site at no extra cost. This applies to those who work on large In Bulgaria, a company installed an MB-L160 crusher or small urban redevelopment sites or those bucket on a Case backhoe loader to demolish an old house. often involved in road works, bridge demolitions, or road construction, and those who disposal fees and material purchasing fees. also work in quarries.

Volvo Expands Material Handler Line With New Models Volvo Construction Equipment has launched the all-new EW200E material handler, aimed at the light waste handling segment. Its bigger brother — the EW240E material handler — is updated with a longer boom. “A dedicated material handler is purpose-built for these applications, compared with modifying an excavator to fit into these segments,” said Matthew McLean, product manager, excavators, Volvo CE. “Now we’ve added a second machine to our line-up with the EW200E MH, which is perfect for light and medium material handling like plastic, household waste and scrap.” Engineered for Durability, Productivity The EW200E material handler weighs 22.6 tons and is powered by a Volvo D6J 6-L Tier IV final engine that provides 173 hp (129 kW). The machine has three boom and arm configurations. The straight boom can be fitted with either a 13-ft. gooseneck arm or an 11-ft. 6-in. sorting arm, giving the EW200E a max reach of 33 ft. and a max lifting capacity of 25,600 lbs. The 26-ton EW240E material handler, introduced in 2018 for
Volvo’s EW200E material handler is aimed at the light waste handling segment.
medium-duty applications, now has a 23-ft. 9-in. straight boom, which is more than 2 ft. longer than the previous model. When combined with the existing 16-ft. 5-in. gooseneck arm, the new total reach is more than 39 ft. Additional Features The EW200E MH shares many components with the EW240E MH and other Volvo wheeled excavators.
Hydraulics matched to the Volvo engine allows the machines to find the sweet spot between engine speed and hydraulic efficiency. The boom float function and boom cylinder dampening minimize vibration and hold the grapple in place for increased stability. The grapple control and soft swing system work together for instantaneous response and smooth precision In addition, Volvo material han-
dlers offer application-specific features to increase productivity, uptime and operator comfort: • Option of four stabilizers (front blade and rear outrigger as standard) • Cab can be raised more than 16 ft. above the ground • Cab has double-damped mounts to reduce noise and vibration • Outriggers, blade and cab-raising functions can be completed without removing hands from joy-
sticks • Factory-installed auxiliary circuits enable sorting grabs and orange-peel grapples • Adjustable arm-in and height limitations • Comfort Drive Control provides the ability to drive up to 12 mph using the roller on the joystick • Can be ordered without the steering column, which allows the operator to control the machine using only the joysticks • Auto idle and auto engine shutdown to help to reduce fuel consumption • Optional solid rubber tires • Optional waste package: protective screens and a reversible fan • Optional Smart View feature for bird’s eye view of machine The EW200E MH and EW240E MH are eligible for a free year of ActiveCare Direct, the Volvo telematics service that provides 24/7/365 machine monitoring and fleet utilization reporting directly from Volvo. They also are backed by the Volvo Lifetime Frame and Structure Warranty, which covers the frame, boom and arm for the entirety of the initial ownership period.

Precast Railroad Bridge Will Connect Encinitas Residents TRACK from page 1
Leucadia farmer’s market on Sundays. The nearest place to cross the tracks are either Leucadia Boulevard about 1-mi. to the north of El Portal Street or Encinitas Boulevard about a half mile south. The city of Encinitas decided to do something about this problem. It raised the funding for the project and called on a team of engineers and consultants to draw up plans for the El Portal Undercrossing and shared-use path. El Portal is a street west of the tracks that dead-ends next to Coast Highway 101. The project would benefit shoppers, students, pedestrians and cyclists. The city of Encinitas selected the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) to take over the bidding and construction administration of the project on behalf of the city in 2020. SANDAG executes the capital improvement projects on the North County Transit District’s portion of the LOSSAN railway in San Diego County and built a similar undercrossing at Santa Fe Drive in 2013 about 2 mi. south of the new El Portal Crossing. SANDAG put the project out to bid and the low bidder, Granite Construction, was selected to head up the construction of the project and coordinate the activity of various subcontractors to make the undercrossing a reality. “This is a really exciting project for the city because it will connect people east and west of the railroad tracks who don’t have amenities on the other side,” said Encinitas Mayor and SANDAG Chair Catherine Blakespear. “Residents are going to be able to visit friends and be able to walk to the beach and recreate in the ocean. This provides that connectivity that we don’t have in this corridor. I’m grateful we’re able to devote general fund money to it.” Granite’s job is a $6.7 million project to construct an underpass similar to an undercrossing opened in 2013 near Swami’s Seaside Park at Santa Fe Drive, about a mile south of where the El Portal undercrossing job would be built. Granite Construction, based in Watsonville, Calif., has a long history of building bridges to accommodate highway traffic and road construction. The company has

also led complex projects that involve managing live traffic while new construction is happening. Still, the El Portal Undercrossing had new elements, including building a bridge for railroad traffic, which is considerably heavier than road traffic. “As a builder of highways and bridges, we have done similar jobs in terms of bridge work, retaining walls and foundations,” said Bobby Shadkam, Granite’s project manager of the job. “It is in our wheelhouse of projects we do.” Construction Began in Early 2021 The key elements of the project called for a new precast railroad bridge supported on foundation piles. “The team determined four weekends that we could work from Friday at midnight to Monday morning at 4 a.m. to get the initial work done,” said Shadkam. The work was completed in three weekends in 2021: February 20 to 21, March 13 to 14, and March 20 to 21. During those crucial hours, the train traffic was halted and the workers removed the tracks, the ballast and the sub-ballast under the tracks. After each session, the ballast, sub-ballast and tracks were returned in time for them to be tested before reopening the train traffic on Monday morning. “Our plan was to drill 16 piles,

each about 50 feet deep to support the new bridge,” said Shadkam. “We were able to get eight of them drilled in the first weekend and eight more piles the second weekend. Then each was encased in concrete.” The concrete bridge elements were precast concrete fabricated off-site by Con-Fab California near Bakersfield, then hauled over five hours to the El Portal project. During the March 20 to 21 work details, the precast elements were welded to the piles. The workers then built the bridge abutments to help solidify the structure for the heavy loads they will sustain for years to come. “As usual with projects like this, we had to relocate some utilities,” said Shadkam. With the support in place,
Granite’s welders secured bent caps on top of the piles and precast concrete to form the platform of the new bridge. Sixteen steel girders were installed to further the structural integrity of the bridge. Finally, waterproofing material was laid on the platform to prevent moisture in the future from seeping into the structure and corroding the bridge elements. Only then could the workers return the ballast and the tracks for Monday morning use. Each step of the project carried its own set of complexities. “Not only was there limited time for all the steps we needed, but we had a lot of workers and equipment in a small space,” said Shadkam. “In addition, we had to get 12 certified welders who would be willing to work weekends for that operation.
We also had to insist that the welders take rest time during the week so they would be ready for that grueling weekend schedule.” COVID Issues As with almost all construction projects during 2019-2020, COVID was a concern as social distancing and masks had to be factored into the work. Construction workers were considered essential workers. “We held many of our meetings virtually that we would have had in person,” said Shadkam. “We missed some of the interpersonal relationships that are often so important to forming a close team, but that did not interfere with the planning or execution of the project.” Another COVID-related problem was sourcing the material, especially the made-in-America steel. The construction team was forced to look further afield than normal to find everything they needed for the project. “We built the job according to railroad standards, with an expected 100-year life span,” said Shadkam. Much of the “heavy lifting” on the project is done, while much work still needs to be done before the underpass is ready to open by the end of April 2022. Considerable landscaping and earthmoving must be done as well as the installation of drainage systems. Retaining walls will soon be under construction and will be followed by architectural treatments, post and cable fencing, stairways, curbs and gutters. “I’m proud of the fact that we were able to work together as a team with the SANDAG, the other stakeholders [NCTD/City of Encinitas] and the various subcontractors and suppliers to make this happen,” said Shadkam. “Having goodcommunication with SANDAG helped us keep with the aggressive schedule. Everyone on the team stayed focused on the work and didn’t let egos get in the way. When the underpass is complete, I believe the people of the city will get a lot of enjoyment out of it.” The first-tier subcontractors and suppliers on the job were: Con-Fab California, bridge fabrication; Railworks Track Service, railroad track work; Mahaffey Drilling, CIDH; and Select Electric, electrical work.

Getting Connected to Ride-On Trencher Attachments By Brant Kukuk SPECIAL TO CEG
Ride-on trenchers are one of the most efficient pieces of equipment for underground construction projects. From digging a trench for utility installation to a variety of landscape, hardscape and construction-grade tasks, ride-on machines are the easiest and most affordable solution to help underground construction professionals get the job done. And, with a growing number of available attachments, operators can turn one machine into many and get even more ROI from their trencher. Here are some of the attachments that can increase uptime and help operators quickly move from one project to the next. Standard Trencher The standard trencher attachment is a staple for any ride-on trencher machine. It generally comes pre-installed on a ride-on trencher. The standard trencher attachment will dig approximately 4 to 5 ft. into the ground and create a trench 6 to 12 in. wide, although different manufacturers will offer varying size options. With standard trencher attachments, contractors can efficiently create trenches to install irrigation lines, fiber or cable. The most popular trencher attachments will come equipped with a combination chain that is fitted with both shark tooth and cup tooth chains to cut through a variety of soil conditions. When using a standard trencher attachment, it’s important to always let the trencher work at its own pace. Forcing a trencher to cut faster can lead to broken chains and downtime for repairs. It’s also advised to inspect a chain at the start of every job to ensure that the chain has the proper tension. A good rule of thumb for determining this is to follow the two-finger rule — when inspecting chain tension, two fingers should fit between the chain and the lowest part of the boom when the boom is parallel to the ground. Contractors also should check to ensure there are no broken teeth on the trencher attachment. Both poor chain tension and broken teeth can reduce the effectiveness of the attachment.
daily — a diamond PDC blade will last around 20,0000 ft. before it needs to be replaced.
With a growing number of available attachments, operators can turn one machine into many and get even more ROI from their trencher.
Backhoe Unlike most other ride-on trencher attachments, a trencher-backhoe attachment is most often stationed at the front of a machine so that it can operate in conjunction with another attachment. The primary function of a backhoe attachment is to start and finish a trench — similar to an entry-pit and an exit pit in HDD. A backhoe attachment is beneficial especially on job sites in which the start and end of a trench are in close proximity to urban hazards like fencing or existing landscape structures. A backhoe attachment also is used in rehabilitation and repair projects because it allows for more precise digging than a standard trencher attachment. The typical backhoe attachment starts with a 6-ft. digging depth and has a bucket width of 12 in. As machine size increases so too does backhoe size. Saw A saw attachment — also known as a rock saw — is a circular blade that is similar in appearance to a microtrencher. This attachment is used to cut through difficult and rocky terrain. The most common saw attachments will dig down to a depth of 16 to 48 in. and typically use a conical bit blade with carbide. As a result, it’s important to consistently check the blade for wear. As saws are constantly used in rocky conditions, their bits will wear down faster than standard trencher teeth.
Microtrencher Microtrenching is paving the way as a cost-effective solution that can help operators cut time, minimize disruptions and increase their overall ROI. Most commonly used for fiber installation, microtrenching attachments allow for a narrower trench to be created than with a standard trenching attachment. For instance, a microtrencher will cut a trench ½ to 3 in. wide. This narrower trench saves contractors backfilling time and cost since less backfill will be needed. Microtrenching is typically done in the gutter pan that parallels the road where the asphalt meets concrete of the curb. By cutting a narrower trench when cross cutting and trenching on the side of the road, contractors don’t need to stop traffic, saving on traffic redirection headaches and associated costs. There are two typical blades that most microtrenching attachments will use. The first is a conical style bit that rotates in a holder and functions like a traditional rock saw. The second is a PDC blade, which is composed of diamond with carbide. The conical bits are generally the more affordable option between the two, but diamond PDC blades are growing in popularity due to its cleaner cut and longer lifespan. While a conical bit will be effective through around 4,000 ft. — meaning that contractors will likely need to replace bits
Vibratory Plow A plow attachment is most commonly used to bury flexible pipe, conduit and cable. The plow is an attractive option in these applications as it offers the ability to install the application as the machine drives. Plows also create less ground disturbance than a standard trencher because they do not create an open trench. However, plows may be difficult to operate in hard or rocky ground conditions. There are two different styles of plow blades: a pull blade and a feed blade. A pull blade does what its name implies and will pull a cable, conduit or fiber behind the blade to install it underground. A feed blade will have a feeding chute on the attachment to allow conduit to be fed down through the attachment and into the ground. Safety Best Practices As with any machine or attachment, it’s always important to read the operator’s manual before boots hit the ground. Remember that anytime crews are digging into the ground, they should always call 811 to get a job site located. Understanding where existing utilities are located is one of the most important steps in mitigating damage and reducing the chance of costly strikes. Additionally, it’s important to take precautions when installing attachments. While attachments are built to have the ability to be changed out, we always recommended that users contact a local equipment dealer when looking to remove or install attachments. Personnel at a dealership have been trained and have access to the proper equipment to ensure a safe attachment exchange. Trenching for Efficiency Ride-on trenchers are consistently one of the most popular machines in underground construction. Now, with the growing number of attachments available, operators can customize their machine to meet almost any job site need, maximizing uptime, improving job performance and increasing ROI.

The LaBounty MHP platform offers industry-leading power-to-weight ratio and large jaw capacities. Its new design is optimized to pick-up, crush and separate rebar from concrete faster than before as a result of high-tip forces, increased jaw sizes and fast cycle times. The MHP’s unique shape makes it extremely versatile for use on the ground
when separating rebar from concrete in recycling applications. Key features of the new MHP include: • Reverse Cylinder with internal hydraulic lines that protect components from debris • Pass Through Lower Jaw that facilitates rebar separation • Interchangeable Teeth offer lower maintenance • Serrated Blades for efficient rebar cutting • Bucket Style Teeth for sorting of materials “This expanded offering supports our continued mission to provide customers with demolition and recycling solutions for any project, no matter the scale or budget,” said Michael Moriarty, director of marketing at Stanley Infrastructure. “We’re excited to push another new lineup of competitively priced, high production attachments for our demolition customers.” For more information, visit www.stanleyinfrastructure.com.
Brandt Equipment Solutions has announced an expansion of its Hard-ToThe-Core John-Deere-optimized attachment lineup to include a dedicated pin grabber coupler. The all-new coupler design has been added to ensure that John Deere Construction & Forestry dealers are able to deliver the safest, fastest-cycling coupler on the market for their customers. The unit is fully compliant with ISO 13031, EN 474, AS 4772 safety standards. “Couplers are subjected to a lot of hard use on the job site and that wear-and-tear can easily result in safety concerns,” said Brandt Industries Senior Vice President, Sales — Manufactured Products, Neil Marcotte. “We made this new unit exceptionally strong and with fewer moving parts to ensure the industry’s safest, most secure connection, every time.” Brandt’s coupler design features a rear wedge to keep the rear pin secured without relying on gravity, preventing a swinging attachment in the event of a hydraulic failure. And, a hydraulic check valve has been added to maintain pressure in the cylinders
in the event of hydraulic hose breakage until proper function is restored. The coupler’s internal safety-lock is spring-engaged and hydraulically released to keep the rear wedge in place, securing the pin. To prevent accidental attachment drops, the hydraulic interlock requires the coupler to be fully curled towards the cab in order to be disengaged.
The company has engineered the new coupler to be the ideal product-line addition for Deere C&F dealers; it works seamlessly with all Deere excavator models from 80Series to 400-Series, delivering a perfect fit with all Brandt, OEM and OEM-compliant attachments, according to the company.

Transportation Biz Brings 30-Year Expertise to Niche Service By Ruksana Hussain
From only two trucks, two drivers and two office staff, Valley has grown tremendously in the past three decades, with 60 staff at the main office location, 200 drivers, four outside sales crew and more than 200 trucks.
CEG CORRESPONDENT
When Brad Grafe, owner and president of Valley Transportation Service Inc., established the company in 1989, he observed a vital niche: providing transportation services to manufacturers and shippers countrywide. From his Grand Meadow, Minn.-based offices, his network of company-owned, lease-purchase and owner-operator trucks provides a much-needed solution to clients across the United States, moving primarily construction and agricultural equipment. From only two trucks, two drivers and two office staff, Valley has grown tremendously in the past three decades, with 60 staff at the main office location, 200 drivers and four outside sales crew and more than 200 trucks. Previously a fertilizer and chemical sales representative for an agricultural equipment cooperative, Grafe managed a trucking company for four years where he learned the business before venturing out on his own in 1989. The scope of services has remained the same at Valley. “The size of the equipment that we haul and the amount of stuff we can put on a trailer has drastically been reduced just because of the size of the equipment,” said Grafe. “We do a great deal of back-haul stuff, such as large air conditioner and refrigeration units, used farm and agricultural equipment, auction items … anything that will go on a lowboy or specialized trailer, we’ll sure try to tackle it and move it for you.” A big change he has witnessed in the industry in that time is equipment store mergers. “We went from equipment dealers that were hauling to one location that now have 40 locations, so a lot of our growth was in just keeping up with the customers and the demand they had from buying stores. We kept gaining more and more accounts that helped spur our growth.”
Valley typically works with Peterbilt and Kenworth trucks, XL Specialized, Manac and Trail King Industries trailers, hauling equipment across most of the Midwest, Arizona, California, Texas and Florida. Located in a smaller building in downtown Grand Meadow until 2006, Grafe moved Valley to its current location on a 16-acre space, with an additional 40 acres attached, offering plenty of expansion room for future growth. Where the company started out at 6,000 sq. ft., Grafe added another 6,000 onto it in 2013 and supplemented that with a new shop this past winter, which is a full-service center, “where we do everything from engine overhauls to brake jobs and oil changes on all of our equipment,” said Grafe. Among specialized services offered at Valley are large equipment — up to 20 ft. wide, 16 ft. tall and 200,000 lbs. — placing the business outside the realm of a regular trucking company. This includes crane load, drive-on and

drive-off loading, etc. While Valley has fared well on the equipment front, “We are running into some problems right now with COVID19 and the issues of being able to get trucks finished and delivered to us,” said Grafe. “We buy new trucks every year on a trade cycle and some of them are getting a little tougher to get. One of the bigger challenges is all the emissions on the engines over the years. It started in 2008 and 2009 when the emissions portion first came out. We had a lot of trouble with engines, so just getting the problems worked out and keeping the motors running over the years has been challenging.” Alongside, working with drivers means safety is a top priority at Valley and the safety director
ensures everyone is well-trained on that front. A string of safety awards earned by the company in recent years proves the value placed on safety for staff working at Valley. Online training is provided to all drivers, with instructional videos and hands-on driver testing. A weekly drivers’ meeting is held where all the drivers present that day meet with the safety team to review different topics and address the everchanging regulations in the industry. Valley works with a team of owner operators and company drivers to support its expanding reach. Approximately 130 trucks are company-owned and operated by company drivers. Another 45 are leased, where Valley offers a lease-purchase program for the
drivers so they can buy the trucks from the company. “The workforce is the biggest challenge that we face every day, not so much with the office and shop staff, but the driver situation that has always been a problem,” said Grafe. “But today it seems worse than the prior years. Our drivers are out typically three weeks at a time, so it gets difficult to find that type of person that wants to be away for long.” To address the workforce challenge, aside from competitive pay and bonus, Valley rewards “Driver of the Month” and “Driver of the Year” recognition and the business has created a new drivers’ lounge in the new shop providing breakfast and lunch. It also has a bunk house outside of town built for drivers so they get their own hotel room they can stay in when their trucks are in the shop. Valley also has stayed ahead of the curve with computer and technology upgrades, including using PeopleNet fleet management software in its semi-tractors to track where vehicles are any time of day. Grafe said he is considering forward-facing and side-view facing cameras to capture accidents as well, as he anticipates steady growth in the future. “We try to add 10 to 15 trucks a year right now, so we try to get that growth scheduled and along with that comes the challenges of the driver issue, so we are trying to battle that and keep our growth up, too.” Business is finally picking up this year after a terrible second quarter last year, said Grafe. “Our mission statement is ‘Our Goal is to Help You Reach Yours,’ so we are here to make sure that the customer is taken care of and they get their customer taken care of … we push that pretty hard with our staff and we try to make it smooth and easy for the customer because we know they’ve got one on the other end that they are trying to satisfy.” CEG

The XL 120 HDG trailer features several different configuration options to haul equipment. This includes setting up with a 3+2 or 4+1.
XL Specialized Trailers has introduced the XL 120 hydraulic detachable gooseneck (HDG) 3+2 trailer. Boasting a 120,000 lbs. in 10 ft. concentrated capacity rating and a low 18-in. deck height, this new trailer is versatile and adaptable, allowing drivers to haul a wide range of construction equipment across the country. The XL 120 HDG trailer features several different configuration options to haul equipment. This includes setting up with a 3+2 or 4+1. The power booster also can be removed to run three, four or five axles in a row. Additionally, a modular deck connection adds deck sections or swaps out deck designs and allows for shimming when needed. The trailer is 53 ft. long overall. “The ability to adapt to the user’s equipment makes this a very versatile unit for transportation,” said Tom Hiatt, director of sales at XL Specialized Trailers. “The 18inch loaded deck height on a 120 hydraulic
lowboy is a major benefit for those moving taller equipment.” The 13-ft. low-profile hydraulic gooseneck has a swing clearance of 107 in. and 36-in. flip neck extension. The neck also offers a five-position ride height. The 26-ft. long main deck offers a loaded deck height of only 18 in. with a ground clearance of 6 in., allowing the model to haul tall and heavy equipment. The main deck possesses seven bent d-rings along with 13 chain drops per side for worry-free transportation. The rear deck is 14 ft. long with a 41-in. loaded deck height. The power booster on the XL 120 uses hydraulic pressure, accompanied by a nitrogen accumulator, to transfer weight from the trailer, while allowing the booster to be flexible for uneven terrain.

TC Energy Halts Pipe Project BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) The sponsor of the Keystone XL crude oil pipeline pulled the plug on the project after Canadian officials failed to persuade President Joe Biden to reverse his cancellation of its permit on the day he took office. Calgary-based TC Energy said it would work with government agencies “to ensure a safe termination of and exit” from the partially built line, which was to transport crude from the oil sand fields of western Canada to Steele City, Neb. Construction on the 1,200-mi. pipeline began last year when former President Donald Trump revived the long-delayed project after it had stalled under the Obama administration. It would have moved up to 830,000 barrels (35 million gallons) of crude daily, connecting in Nebraska to other pipelines that feed oil refineries on the U.S. Gulf Coast. Biden canceled the pipeline’s border crossing permit in January over longstanding concerns that burning oil sands crude could make climate change worse and harder to reverse. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had objected to the move , raising tensions between the U.S. and Canada. Officials in
Alberta, where the line originated, expressed frustration in recent weeks that Trudeau wasn’t pushing Biden harder to reinstate the pipeline’s permit. Alberta invested more than $1 billion in the project last year, kick-starting construction that had stalled amid determined opposition to the line from environmentalists and Native American tribes along its route. On Montana’s Fort Belknap Reservation, tribal president Andy Werk Jr. described the end of Keystone as a relief to Native Americans who stood against it out of concerns a line break could foul the Missouri River or other waterways. TC Energy said in canceling the pipeline that the company is focused on meeting “evolving energy demands” as the world transitions to different power sources. It said it has $7 billion in other projects under development. Keystone XL’s price tag had ballooned as the project languished, increasing from $5.4 billion to $9 billion. Meanwhile, oil prices fell significantly — from more than $100 a barrel in 2008 to under $70 in recent months — slowing development of Canada’s oil sands and threatening to eat into any profits from moving the fuel to refineries.

Firms Look to Fill Employment Void LABOR from page 1
(AGC) noted that BLS statistics put worker numbers at 225,000 below the pre-pandemic peak of February 2020. Nonresidential construction employment shrank by 21,800 in May and was 260,000 below the February 2020 level, reported AGC chief economist Ken Simonson. “A total of 642,000 former construction workers were unemployed in May, a sharp decline from May 2020 but the second-highest May level since 2014,” he wrote. The industry’s unemployment rate in May was 6.7 percent, compared to 12.7 percent in May 2020. For total construction, hourly earnings in April averaged $32.59, 8 percent more than the average for the nonfarm private sector. But over the past two years this premium shrank by 2.2 percentage points from 10.2 percent in April 2019. This implies that “the financial attractiveness of construction may be diminishing as other sectors that are expanding faster raise pay to attract more workers,” said Simonson. The premium diminished the most for employees of heavy and civil engineering construction firms (minus 4.5 points, from 16 percent above the private-sector average in April 2019 to 11.5 percent in April 2021). Citing BLS data, the AGC reported there were 357,000 job openings in construction, seasonally adjusted, at the end of April. Hires in April totaled 335,000 or 4.5 of the employment total for the month. “Apart from the pandemic-depressed 3.1 percent rate in 2020, the rate was the lowest for April in the 21-year history of the series,” said Simonson. The job openings rate (4.6 percent) was the second-highest total for any month since the series began in December 2000, he added. Recruiting Headaches Recruiting construction workers can be more expensive than keeping them on the job. “Many young employees know little about the industry,” said Blair Chenault, CEO of construction software provider Flashtract. In a blog on his company’s website, Chenault wrote that long-term workers have been the backbone of the industry. “As these workers reach retirement age in droves, younger workers aren’t stepping in to fill the available positions.” Younger workers believe the con-
struction industry is unstable, he said. Another big reason: The encouragement to seek higher education equals discouragement from manual jobs like construction. Plus, construction comes with safety hazards that make proper training a vital part of the industry, he wrote. “Training long-term employees is well worth the cost and time, but new employees can be unpredictable,” said Chenault. “Losing trained employees is expensive and leaves fellow workers carrying an extra burden on the job site.” Presidential Pains The White House’s plan to alleviate supply-chain disruptions could create other burdens. While boosting labor numbers and training, the proposal would increase the cost of doing construction business, believes the AGC. Association officials want the Biden administration to address rising materials costs and growing labor shortages. Stephen E. Sandherr, the association’s CEO, said Biden’s supply-chain program “would limit the ability of workers and employers to fill needed construction positions.” He believes that imposing mandated hiring percentages, inflexible labor agreements and artificially high pay rates will cut the number of firms and workers available for infrastructure and other construction programs. “The construction industry is experiencing widespread and growing problems with the cost and supply of materials,” said Sandherr. “These challenges will make it more costly and difficult to achieve the administration’s goals for infrastructure, renewable energy and affordable housing.” Solutions to Stay Afloat Baywork, a San Francisco area coalition of water agencies, has created apprenticeship programs to get students that experience while they’re in school, reported Hechinger. “Utility managers believe this approach will solve some staffing problems.” Some agencies in the area have agreed to hold community college classes at their plants. It cuts down on students’ commute times and provides practical experience. Oakland’s Dublin San Ramon Services District is offering plant tours and job fairs to boost interest in water jobs. “We have to market these jobs and
make sure high-school kids who are smart consider it,” said Levi Fuller, district wastewater operations superintendent. Gender and diversity, as well, plague construction sectors. Brookings found that more than 82 percent of power plant workers are white. And, 82 percent of infrastructure workers are men. “A more diverse workforce would help fill jobs, but it will take broader steps to complete the slew of infrastructure projects proposed by the administration,” wrote Hechinger. A “few relatively easy fixes” the article lists include allowing Pell grants to pay for short-term college vocational programs. Recruiting Tips Chenault of Flashtract warns that all industries will vie for the attention of transitioning job seekers. Companies in the construction industry will need new techniques for recruiting and retaining. Here are his tips: • Expand recruitment tactics and meet potential employees where their job search exists. “As people return to the job market, they may not even consider construction without prompting,” he wrote. “Job seekers comparing industries will be eager to learn about income opportunities, as well as benefits and advancement opportunities.” • Improve conditions for current employees, the window into what the work experience is like within a construction company. “Now is the time to reduce cumbersome job tasks and eliminate slow payment issues that have been known to plague the industry,” said Chenault. Create open streams of communication with employees to ensure you’re doing everything you can to make your employees feel connected and appreciated. “Happy employees serve as brand ambassadors to job seekers around them, he wrote. • Recognize difficulties for employees returning to the job market who may be working through a tough time financially as they emerge from the pandemic. “Employers will face a different situation when it comes to reaching payment agreements for new employees,” said Chenault. “Take time to reexamine your company budget to allocate funds to attracting and retaining long-term employees to the company.” CEG

Freight Bottlenecks $42B Hidden Cost On Economy Freight bottlenecks cost the U.S. economy more than $42 billion in 2019 — a hidden tax on the American people that is only likely to increase as the country fully opens, according to a review of Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) data. The American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) study, “Throttled: The Economic Costs of Freight Bottlenecks,” also shows that freight shipments suffered almost 660 million hours of delay on the nation’s roadways. “Our examination brings into sharp focus the continued costs of congestion on America’s highway network,” said ARTBA Chief Economist Alison Premo Black. “Legislation to address freight mobility through increased federal transportation investment would help alleviate these bottlenecks, increase business productivity and power the economy for the next generation.” Among key findings: • New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Austin, Houston, Nashville, San Francisco, Seattle, Philadelphia and Atlanta are among cities hardest hit by freight bottlenecks. • The cost of congestion on the Interstate Highway System alone has grown 25 percent over the last two years — from $12 billion in 2017 to more than
$15 billion in 2019. • The cost of congestion on the top 10 bottlenecks increased by 11 percent in just one year — from $761.8 million in 2018 to $848.4 million in 2019. • 26 states face $500 million or more in congestion costs annually. • Highway freight shipments experi-

enced more than 658,854,025 million hours of delay in 2019, with more than one-third of those hours (36 percent) on the Interstate Highway System. FHWA calculates the delay per mile to quantify the cost of bottlenecks across major corridors and compares performance from year to year. Almost 73 percent of the value of domestic freight is shipped via truck and the value of truck shipments is expected to more than double by 2045, according to ARTBA’s analysis of FHWA’s data.
