The emergency replacement of a span of the Interstate 5 Skagit River Bridge in Washington State (linking the communities of Burlington and Mount Vernon) is fully complete as of midNovember. PCL Civil Constructors completed the third phase of the project — the steel structural upgrades to the three spans that were unaffected by the accident which had one of the four spans above the water collapse when an oversized semi-truck hit critical steel supports on May 23.
A Grove RT760E 60-ton (54 t) rough-terrain crane was used to erect the pieces of the bridge.
The nearly $20 million project — financed by Federal Emergency Relief Funds, had the temporary span in place on June 19 and the replacement span installed on Sept. 15. The bridge itself, 640 ft. (195 m) long (four connected spans), has two lanes in each direction and a median dividing them. More then 71,000 vehicles cross the bridge on a daily basis. Repairing the bridge was a priority project for the Washington Department of Transportation (WSDOT) and that was reflected in the rapidity of the awarding of the contract to install a temporary span to Guy.

Bayonet Breakers Provides Miracles After West Tragedy In the world of heavy equipment, many words come to mind. Hard work, knowledge, expertise, and grit are a few but miracle is not normally one of them—until now. Tragedies are exactly what they sound like…tragic. Sometimes even tragedies spawn miracles and bring out the very best in people.
Everyone will remember the tragic events of April of 2013 when the West Fertilizer Plant in West, Texas, caught fire, resulting in two devastating ammonium nitrate explosions that killed 15 and injured more than 160 people. In just moments following the explosions, hundreds of people from surrounding com-
munities responded to help in any way possible. The devastation could only be described as a war zone. A 26-unit apartment complex just across the railroad track from the fertilizer plant was completely destroyed as was the West Rest Haven Retirement Home and an assisted living facility two see UNDERWOOD page 26
Construction Creates 20,000 Jobs in Sept. Construction employment rose by 20,000 in September and the industry’s unemployment rate fell to a six-year low of 8.5 percent, while construction spending increased for the fifth consecutive month in August, according to an analysis of new government data by the Associated General Contractors of America. Association officials cautioned that the data does not address any potential impacts from the recent federal government shutdown. “Both of these reports show the industry was doing relatively well before the federal government shutdown forced many firms to hit the pause button,” said Ken Simonson, the association’s chief economist. “But the shutdown likely disrupted a wide variety of projects and may have caused private investors and developers to delay decisions about new projects or plant expansions. As a result, future spending and hiring gains may be weaker.” see JOBS page 50

Rare Paving Sight in Oregon By Garrett Andrews NEWS REVIEW
YONCALLA, Ore. (AP) To a larger city, receiving a grant to cover a $44,000 road project isn’t a big deal. But to Yoncalla, where falling timber revenue has meant crumbling infrastructure, it’s huge. Knife River Materials crews are grading and paving sections of Douglas, Elm and Third streets in the south part of town. The money will come from an Oregon Department of Transportation grant for road projects in cities with fewer than 5,000 people. Yoncalla, a city of 1,060 with a $2.8 million budget, had been turned down for the grant each of the previous three years. City Administrator Kathy Finley said the city wasn’t expecting the $50,000 grant to cover the entire project cost. “We were pleasantly surprised when the bids came in,’’ Finley said. Douglas County once distributed money to city governments for road projects like Yoncalla’s, under the theory that county residents use city streets, Douglas County Commissioner Doug Robertson said. The money came from timber receipts, which have been scaled back significantly beginning in the early 1990s. Since fiscal year 1988-89, the U.S. Forest Service has cut funding to public works projects in Douglas

County in half, to $5.9 million last year. With less money to go around, Robertson said the county has had to prioritize and only fund county road projects. Glendale, like Yoncalla, receives a grant for a road project about every three to four years. “Five years ago, we were getting it every other year,’’ Glendale Public Works Superintendent Ned Dausel said. “It’s not terrible. It’s just the way it is in this economy.’’ Glendale recently began using a soft coal patch to fill potholes until a road can be resurfaced. “We got five tons of that for $800, and five tons goes a long way,’’ Dausel said. The drop in timber receipts has meant small cities like Yoncalla have to pick their road projects carefully and learn to live with rundown streets, Finley said. The greatest problem area to be repaired will be a section of Douglas Street leading to Applegate Pioneer Cemetery southeast of town. The street is so beat up, Douglas Street resident Kathleen Bean said she has to drive on both sides of the street to navigate the potholes. “It can get pretty exciting,’’ she said.

Demo Looms for Historic Reno Span RENO, Nev. (AP) Plans to demolish a 108-year-old downtown Reno bridge made famous by divorcees who tossed rings from it into the Truckee River have moved a big step closer to reality. Regional flood authority directors approved $7.2 million in funding Oct. 11 to pave the way for demolition of the Virginia Street Bridge to begin in spring of 2014. Local officials say the concrete, double-arched bridge needs to be replaced because it acts as a bottleneck during floods and causes water to pour onto downtown streets. The bridge became legendary after it was portrayed by Hollywood and the news media as the site where people tossed wedding rings into the Truckee after securing divorces at the nearby courthouse. The Reno Gazette-Journal reported the $7.2 million authorized will allow for demolition to begin next spring and provide for part of the new structure’s construction. Flood authority Executive Director Jay Aldean said the “crumbling’’ bridge, built in 1905, is “probably one of the worst bridges in the country.’’ Construction of the new bridge is expected to cost about $16 million and be completed in 2015. Another $10 million in federal funding for construction is being provided through the Nevada Department of Transportation. The regional flood authority board consists of elected officials from Reno, Sparks and Washoe County.

U Rent It Showcases Chicago Pneumatic at Demo Day
U
Rent It Sales & Service based in Terrell, Texas hosted a demo day to showcase Chicago Pneumatic’s newest product offerings on Oct. 18. End users were encouraged to try out Chicago Pneumatic’s full line of construction equipment in a practical setting. On display at the demo day was the entire Chicago Pneumatic product offering, including CP’s brand new compaction rollers, the newly introduced CP 1260 and 1290 handheld breakers, and the emissionscompliant CPS 400 it4 portable air compressor. “It’s extremely important to get the equipment in the hands of end-
users to help them make their purchasing decisions,” said Paul McClendon, regional sales manager of Chicago Pneumatic Construction Equipment. “Additionally, it gives them an opportunity to ask questions and get feedback right there on the spot.” In spite of heavy rain leading up to the event and a wet demonstration area, dozens of end-users travelled to U Rent It for the event. Attendees were made up of private contractors, public works employees from municipalities across the region, and other equipment dealers from around the area as well. “A lot of folks only know Chicago Pneumatic for our hand-
held tools,” said McClendon. “To get in front of a lot of different people and show off our portable energy line, rig-mounted breaker line, and compaction line, that aren’t as well known as the handheld line is extremely important initiative for all of us at Chicago Pneumatic.” The event was held in an open house style format from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and offered hands-on training, networking opportunities, lunch, and opportunities for Q&A session with representatives from both U Rent It and Chicago Pneumatic. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

FEMA Funds Nearly $20M Emergency Bridge Replacement COLLAPSE from page 1
LLC ($8.1 million). The bridge collapsed at 7 p.m. and the contract was signed at 10:30 a.m. on May 24. Atkinson staff and crews, along with equipment and traffic control services, took over the site rapidly. “It was to get the bridge up as fast as you could,” said Atkinson Engineering Manager Charlie DeGasparis. “We replaced the span with two 24-foot wide two-lane bridges supplied by ACROW Bridge, which is similar to a Bailey bridge.” The bridge consisted of prefabricated parts that were assembled in sections on site (8 by 10 ft. [2.4 by 3 m]), all designed to meet traffic stress, and then pushed into place as completed. The collapsed span (160 ft. [49 m] long) and 40 ft. (12 m) above the water, could only be installed WSDOT photo once the debris from the collapsed span was collected.

While the debris was being removed, Atkinson engineers and crews planned the installation of the replacement bridge via designs for the concrete pedestals, the bridge erection scheme and securing the bridge components from ACROW, which included floor beams, deck panels and individual truss pieces.
“Some bent members had to be heat straightened or replaced,” said DeGasparis. “The cooperation between WSDOT’s engineers, our engineers, ACROW, and the contractors and subcontractors was crucial to the success of our phase. It had to be done quickly, but it had to be done right and that thought was ever-present. “It was a good experience. Because it was such a high-profile, fast-paced project, the coordination and teamwork had to be extraordinary and it was,” he added. “Twenty-four/seven shifts takes a toll on everybody, but for everyone who loves doing what we do, this is what you live for. It was a rewarding feeling and proud moment for all crews after the first vehicle
crossed the bridge.” The second phase of the project saw the Max J. Kuney Company install the permanent span, which required the ACROW bridge to be removed and disassembled and the new precast concrete girder span set in place. Kuney was awarded the $6.87 million contract on June 18, with work beginning on June 20 and by Aug. 13, crews began the process of setting eight enormous concrete girders to support the new roadway, which was completed in three days. After this was completed, crews spent the following three weeks working on the final roadway, including the deck, barriers and other key components. see COLLAPSE page 56

Cat Demo, Sorting Grapples Merge Strength With Control Cat demolition and sorting grapples are designed for the most rigorous applications, including building demolition, construction and demolition debris recycling, scrap recycling, solid waste transfer station loading, tree removal and retaining wall construction, as well as placing boulders, rip rap, concrete, blocks and other difficult-to-handle materials. These versatile, heavy-duty tools are capable of handling large volumes of material while providing the ability to sort through recyclable debris, thus enhancing recovery rates and reducing related costs for labor, transportation and landfill fees. The Cat demolition and sorting grapples lineup includes five models designed to fit a broad range of Cat hydraulic excavators, both crawler- and wheel-type, with
The Cat demolition and sorting grapples lineup includes five models designed to fit a broad range of Cat hydraulic excavators, both crawler- and wheel-type, with operating weights from 22,000 to 99,200 lbs. (10 to 45 t).
operating weights from 22,000 to 99,200 lbs. (10 to 45 t). These work tools are designed for severe service, using high grade, impact
resistant steel throughout, with reinforced jaws and high-wear cutting edges made of AR500 steel. For flexible performance, the
grapples feature 360-degree rotation, allowing precise positioning of the tool without moving the machine. Synchronized jaws enhance control of the grapple, allowing repeatable action cycle after cycle, and high clamping forces ensure material retention during each cycle to boost production efficiency. The precise design of the grapple results in edge-to-edge contact along the tips of the jaws, which allows the operator to pick out the smallest items for selective recycling. Overbite stops further enhance edge-to-edge contact even when working in thin materials. Wide jaw openings, ranging from 71 to nearly 90 in. (180 to 227 cm), greatly expand the working flexibility of the grapples and allow visibility to the work area for more effective material screening. The zero clearance design of the
jaws allows the grapples to work tightly against vertical walls and containers, and the smooth inner profile of the jaws allows material to easily enter and exit without catching, thus speeding production cycles. The high-torque rotation motor is engineered for reliable performance cycle after cycle and is protected from job site hazards. Serviceability features for the new Cat demolition and sorting grapples include ample access to internal parts, ground-level access to grease points and replaceable cutting edges.

Paladin Adds Bradco Flail Mowers to Attachment Line Bradco flail mowers for excavators are the newest additions to Paladin’s ground-clearing selection of attachments. The new Bradco flail mowers are capable of clearing tall grasses, heavy brush and trees up to 4 to 6 in. (10 to 15 cm) in diameter from areas such as hillsides, roadways, ditches, utility right-of-ways, riverbanks and lakesides. Excavator mounting allows municipalities, utility companies, farmers, ranchers and contractors to easily reach over obstructions, into ditches and up hillsides. Bi-directional cutting and discharge capabilities allow operators to control the direction of cut materials away from buildings, roadways and bystanders, and when the excavator is equipped with a case drain, the blades are designed to come to a complete stop within four to five seconds for additional safety. Bradco’s flail mowers are available in light duty (FME30) for mounting on three- to six-ton (2.7 to 5.4 t) excavators and heavy duty (FME40) for mounting on 6- to 10-ton (5.4 to 9 t) excavators. To reduce wear and tear on the drive train and maximize the operational life of the Bradco flail mowers, the drive train features a torsion disc to protect the motor and drive assembly from damage by absorbing
the impact forces from the cutting blades. Other designs use rubber isolation discs that can oxidize and degrade over time. These units also are equipped with a staggered blade pattern to reduce the transfer of cyclical cutting blade impact forces to the drive train while providing a smoother experience for the operator. To further protect the drive train from dust, debris and wire damage, the Bradco flail mowers have heavy-duty flanges on both ends of the rotor. Adjustable skid shoes are standard, allowing the operator to follow the contours of the ground without interfering or obstructing cutting capabilities in either direction. Other flail mowers feature rollers that can catch on vegetation and obstruct access to the cutting blades. The FME40 heavy duty flail mower also features an optional thumb saddle that can be used with or without an excavator thumb to move obstructions out of the way without damaging the housing. For more information, call 800/456-7100 or visit www.paladinattachments.com.

HD60 Excavator Buckets Feature Open Design Paladin Attachments has partnered with Star Hill Solutions Inc. to introduce the Bradco JAWZ grabbing tools as a valuable addition to the company’s portfolio of vegetation management products. These attachments provide a quick, easy and eco-friendly way to remove invasive trees and shrubs, complete with roots, reducing the need for herbicides, burning, or cutting tools, according to the manufacturer. The attachments feature a set of T1 steel fingers (pinchers) powered by dual cylinders that grab the tree/shrub trunk with just the right amount of force to take advantage of the lifting power and leverage from a skid steer or compact tractor. For more compact jobs the Bradco Mini-JAWZ mounts on a compact tool carrier. Both are ideal attachments for those involved in urban land management, landscaping, timber, forestry, soil
preparation, material handling, farming, ranching and construction. In addition to environmentally-friendly vegetation removal, the Bradco JAWZ grabbing tools also are capable of easily handling specialized materials like boulders, logs, metal or wood posts, metal objects, and any other challenging materials that will fit between the fingers. Precise enough to pick up a golf ball, this versatile attachment can quickly and easily move and place a variety of materials, move and set large metal or wood fence posts, or move and carry logs or trees from yard to chipper.

and three blocks away. Of the 153 residents and staff, miraculously, all went basically unscathed as they were evacuated via wheel chairs and beds with wheels. Mattresses were tossed out of windows to catch others. People flooded the facilities to help with the evacuation and transported the residents to the local football field a few blocks away for triage. The West ambulance barn was destroyed along with three ambulances and three fire trucks were also consumed in the explosion. Any large city would have had a hard time handling the destruction, much less a town such as West with a population of only 2,807. The entire community was shaken to their knees emotionally and economically, according to the Public Works Director and Captain of the West Volunteer Fire Department C.J. Gillaspie. “The fertilizer plant supplied product to farmers and ranchers for a 100 mile radius. Along with the retirement and assisted living facilities destruction, our economy is suffering some real strains,” said Gillaspie, noting that he too was not spared the devastation. As captain of the fire department, he drove the first fire engine into the fire. While coordinating the other equipment, the explosion occurred and he lost two of his firefighting buddies as well as his home and his wife’s automobile. “The entire town was in chaos
as hundreds of people continued to show up to help. I counted over 250 fire trucks that had come from communities over 150 miles away,” said Gillaspie. “It was very heartening to see all the immediate help including drinking water, food, clothing and medical assistance, but after things started to settle down, all I could think about was how to repair our infrastructure including water and gas lines,” he continued. The only assistance that followed was a continuous line of salesmen trying to sell their wares to help rebuild West. “Needless to say, even with our emergency funds, our budget was strained to the limit. At about that time, I looked up and saw Corky Underwood of Bayonet Breaker standing in my office. “I tried to put him off, believing him to be just another salesman that I did not have time or money to deal with as he continued to tell me all about his Bayonet Breaker and all the things it could do to help rebuild our infrastructure. “I had seen the Bayonet working at a jobsite and was very impressed, but all I could think of was that we did not have the money for such an item. I did my best to ignore him until I heard him say that he was here not to sell the Bayonet Breaker but to donate it. I could not believe my ears, but Corky now had my undivided attention.” It was determined which break-

er would work the best for the town’s needs and which machine could handle it most efficiently. Arrangements were made to haul the machine to the Bayonet Breaker facility in Prosper, Texas
for the free installation. As fate would have it, the West haul truck broke down just shortly after the trip started. “I called Corky and told him what had happened, so he sent his

own crew and haul truck to pick up our machine. He did the free installation and delivered the Bayonet Breaker and would not let us pay him anything. My faith in mankind was truly renewed,” Gillaspie said. According to Gillaspie, the Bayonet Breaker is the perfect machine for the job, which involves repairing water and gas lines, preparing new trenches and removing slabs from the burned out buildings. When exposing the ruptured pipes, the bucket is raised and the Bayonet is lowered down and locked into position to hammer and break-up the pipes in order for the bucket to easily remove the spoils. The operator never even has to leave the cab. “Not only was the Bayonet Breaker donated to us with free installation, free transportation and a free warranty, it also eliminated the need for a second machine with a hammer or a quick disconnect hammer and a second employee to help maneuver the extra equipment,” said Gillaspie. “The Bayonet works like a charm, is easy to use and is regarded by the city of West, Texas as a real ‘God Sent Miracle’ along with Corky Underwood and his Bayonet Breaker Company.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Phoenix Manufacturer Offers Solutions for Economic Crunch Truck Works Inc. (TWI), a Phoenix, Ariz., based tanker manufacturer said that the current economic downturn is drastically affecting construction firms. Recent trending shows an increase in equipment maintenance and refurbishment efforts. Many of the current consorted efforts are being focused on re-instating equipment previously deemed “outdated,” according to the company. With the onset of stricter construction guidelines, higher fines and fewer jobs in the market, companies are benefiting from the new approach to the “old.” These concepts are far from new or original. Since the burst of the housing bubble in 2008, there is a revised approach to machinery procure-
ment. One approach has been the sacrifice of equipment quality. The dust abatement market is saturated with water trucks that have a shelf life of approximately two years. While it may be appealing to reduce the initial purchase price, company downtime from faulty equipment and recyclable tanks often incur cost far exceeding the original investment, according to TWI. TWI currently is offering a hot dip galvanized water tank that is guaranteed to reduce repair and downtimes. This option increases the warranty from two to 10 years at an increase in price of approximately 25 percent. Most firms are expected to see the return on their investment in just less than three

years. Finally there is a water tank that will give the chassis life a run for its money. TWI also offers galvanized plumbing options and other tank options that have warranties ranging from five to 10
years. With the importance of staying in compliance with air quality standards regarding dust issues on the job site and the high cost on noncompliance citations, many con-

tractors now understand the significance of having a working water truck and how it could impact the bottom line. Repair after failure can cost up to 600 percent more than if a unit or component is regularly maintained or replaced. TWI offers a free evaluation service where it will inspect your water truck at its facility. It will write up a full assessment noting “Areas of Concern,” lube the water pumping system and clean the vehicle at no charge to the customer. For more information, call 877/894-8757 or visit TruckWorksInc.com. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Mack Continues to Sponsor Share the Road Program Mack Trucks announced at the American Trucking Associations (ATA) Management Conference & Exhibition that it would again sponsor the Share the Road program in 2014, marking 12 years of continuous support. “In the design of our trucks, Mack is focused on safety because our customers count on us for a safe, productive work day,” said John Walsh, Mack vice president of marketing. “It’s equally as important to give the millions of Americans
who share our nation’s highways with commercial vehicles the tools and education they need to safely drive alongside our trucks and other large vehicles. That’s why we feel so strongly about the Share the Road program.” Share the Road utilizes professional truck drivers with exemplary safety records to educate people about safe following distances, truck stopping distances, blind spots and other vital driving issues.

ConExpo 1993 ConExpo ’93 — All Business and Lots of It
CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT GUIDE • www.constructionequipmentguide.com • November 16, 2013 • Page 33
Las Vegas, Nevada
This ConExpo article was published in Construction Equipment Guide (CEG) on May 5, 1993. This and other ConExpo articles to follow will be part of a continuing series that take a look back at ConExpos past through the reporting of CEG. We hope you enjoy these retros as much as we did searching for them deep in our archives. You don’t get to very many ConExpo’s in your life; right now, they only come once every six years so they’re something special in the construction world. How do industry people feel about the show? Can it be improved? If so, how? What did you like the most about ConExpo ’93? What did you like least? Construction Equipment Guide asked dealers and equipment manufacturers in the MidAtlantic Region these and other questions. Their answers, generally positive, are a good indication that the show continues to be successful. An estimated 95,000 visitors attended ConExpo ’93 in Las Vegas March 20 to 25. This wasn’t the largest attendance in the show’s history. (About 130,000 attended the last event in 1987). But it is generally regarded as very good, considering that the industry has “downsized” about 30 percent since ’87. A common theme among those interviewed was the quality of the attendees. In this respect, downsizing seems to have been beneficial. People meant business, and they purchased a lot of equipment right off the displays. “There were many high-caliber buyers, whereas in the past there were often a lot of lookers and tire kickers,” said Cindy Martins, product line marketing manager for LaBounty Manufacturing, Two Harbors, Minn. “I liked the fact that the show didn’t seem to be crowded,” said John Jackson, president of Road Machinery Inc., an equipment dealer in Lionville, Pa. “You could talk with people much more easily; it was a good show, a real people show, with a lot of opportunity for us as dealers to meet with manufacturers and visitors. People were really interested in equipment.” Jerry Thomsen, president of Trail King Industries, Mitchell, S.D., said, “We were extremely happy with the
show. The quality of the people was very good; they were decision makers.” Many of those interviewed said they sold a lot of machines. “We sold well over 200 units as a result of the show,” said Bob Diener, director of advertising and publicity at Grove Worldwide, Shady Grove, Pa. “We were the largest exhibit, with 54,000 sq. ft., and it was the best show in our history as a company. The best thing about the show was the quality of the people attending.” John Banes, northeastern region manager for IngersollRand Construction & Mining, Bethlehem, Pa., told CEG: “We had a very good show; we sold a lot of machinery.” Tom Schwarz, operations manager for K.C. Canary Inc./Clifton Rock Inc., a dealer in Clifton Rock, N.Y., said he talked with a lot of small attachment manufacturers whom he might not have seen at a bigger show. “I went to the show with a couple of attachments in mind and talked
with three or four manufacturers,” he said. “I also enjoyed talking with a lot of people that I don’t see on a regular basis.” Tim O’Malley, sales manager, Daewoo Machinery Corp., Newark, N.J., said: “It wasn’t the show I’ve been used to because there wasn’t as much dirt equipment. My impression was that there was as much space as before, but a heck of a lot more small exhibitors.” O’Malley, like just about everyone, felt the show was well organized. Many said the show came at an extraordinarily good time for the industry, which is in an economic recovery and looking for the most productive equipment. “The best thing about the show was its timing,” said LaBounty’s Martins. “The economy is turning around and the show came right as enthusiasm is building.” Almost everyone said they thought the show should remain in Vegas. Their reasons: good accommodations, ability to handle crowds, availability of comparatively inexpensive entertainment. “In Vegas, everywhere you go, there are cabs,” said K.C. Canary’s Schwarz. “In most cities, without a car, you’re lost. And places like Orlando cost you money for a whole day; you can’t go there for an evening.” Some felt the show should be shorter. “ConExpo was very good for us,” said Tim Gerbus, vice president, Moxy Trucks of America, Cincinnati, Ohio. “But the last couple of days, there was very little traffic.” see CONEXPO page 34

CONEXPO from page 33
Gerbus felt that downsizing the show, however, turned out to be an advantage “because it helped us show our product.” And most said they plan to be back for the next show, be it in 1999 or earlier. “If I’m still breathing, I’ll go,” said Harold Howell, president of Harold Howell Construction Equipment Co., Jupiter, Fla. The best thing about ConExpo ’93? Many mentioned “the optimistic attitude among contractors and distributors” … “excellent organization for exhibitors” … “an opportunity to meet every type of contractor, foreign, as well as domestic” … and “as an exhibitor, we could move in and out quickly without a hassle.” Pressed to give the “worst thing” about the show, interviewees usually had to think for a while. “I guess the worst thing was trying to get a damn bus back to the hotel,” said Howell. “The only hitch was the lead tracking system,” said John Brincefield, national sales manager for Power Curbers Inc., Salisbury, N.C. “This year, each booth used at least one machine, which was supposed to read a magnetic stripe on the visitor’s card to automatically get a name, address, phone number and other information. The machine didn’t work half the time; it was a pain in the butt.” Each booth received the use of one machine as part of its participation, but many exhibitors rented additional ones, which rubbed salt in the wounds. In past years, visitors used credit cards, which were run through an imprinter for the information. Some felt the show could be shorter. “From our perspective, the last day and a half could have been cut,” said Power Curbers’ Brincefield. “I’d keep it to three or
four days instead of five.” Though their booth sold four slip form pavers at the show, Brincefield said most of the action was during the first three days.” But others said that, although their feet were hurting, they still got valuable contacts during the last two days, even though traffic slowed drastically. Merle DenBesten, president of Vermeer Southeast Sales & Service Inc., Orlando, Fla., said his overall impression of the show as an equipment dealer was that “the interest level was very good; there was super-excellent traffic going through our booth.” Asked for the worst thing about the show, he said: “The cost was prohibitive, but that was borne by the manufacturers, who put out a tremendous amount of dollars, willingly or unwillingly, to bring equipment to the location.” Vermeer held a customer meeting in the Las Vegas area before the show, moving in a lot of equipment a day before the opening. The company was prohibited from bringing people the following day because it would compete with the show. “To me, that’s a negative,” said DenBesten. None of those interviewed thought any major feature of the show should be discontinued the next time. And they all thought ConExpo had a positive effect on the industry. One word was used often: “Magnificent.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.) CEG

orbark Inc. hosted its second Demo Days event of the year on Oct. 10 and 11 at its world headquarters in Winn, Mich. The event drew more than 150 existing and potential customers along with representatives from Morbark’s dealer network from the United States, Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand and the Netherlands. The two-day event kicked off with breakfast and welcoming comments from Morbark CEO Lon Morey, President Jim Shoemaker and Vice President of Sales and Marketing John Foote. A guided tour of the factory and vendor pavilion featuring Morbark suppliers followed. Another highlight of the first day’s events was a panel discussion on Tier IV emission standards and compliance issues conducted by Shane Patzer of Michigan CAT, Aaron Cozart of Cummins Bridgeway and Steve Kimball of Superior Diesel Inc. Day two of the event focused on a demonstration of seven Morbark machines geared for the forestry and recycling markets, including the new 3200 wood hog and 40/36 NCL micro chipper. The 3200 wood hog, powered by a 500 hp John Deere engine featured an 18/18 hammer pattern, 5 in. (12.7 cm) hex grates, magnet and an externally adjustable see MORBARK page 36

KPI-JCI, Astec Mobile Screens Honor Dealers With Donation KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens has announced a donation of more than $4,000 to local and national charities selected by its dealer organization. In lieu of the traditional awards typically given to dealers who exemplify excellence at the company’s annual National Dealer Conference, KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens decided to allow each award winner to select a charity to which to donate, said Marketing Manager Melinda Schweitzer. “We wanted to continue to recognize our outstanding dealers for their commitment to the KPI-JCI and Astec Mobile Screens brand, but we also wanted to recognize that our success means we have the opportunity to help others in need,” Schweitzer said. Nine dealers were recognized for excellence with 21 awards at the company’s National Dealer Conference, held Sept. 16 to 19 in Eugene, Ore. Award winners included Road Machinery & Supplies of Savage, Minn.; General Equipment and Supplies of Fargo, N.D.; Goodfellow Corporation of Boulder City, Nev.; G. W. Van Keppel Company of Kansas City, Kan.; Lonetrack Equipment/Chieftain Recycling Equipment of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada; McAllister Equipment of Alsip, Ill.; Texas Bearing Company of Amarillo, Texas; Thompson Rolec Equipment of Lewiston, Maine; and American State Equipment of Little Chute, Wisc. Charities included the American Red Cross, BC Children’s Hospital, Alberta Children’s Hospital, Eveline Rivers Christmas Project, Operation Breakthrough, Dempsey Challenge and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. In addition, funds were donated to dealer employees who had suffered an injury or illness. For more information, visit www.kpijci.com.

Terex Responds to Customers, Unveils MC1300 Cone Module The modular product line consists of several pre-designed static and semi-static crushing and screening “plug and play” modules.
Terex Minerals Processing Systems (MPS) has launched the new MC1300 Cone Module in response to customer feedback, increasing the application and production capabilities of its existing modular product range. The modular product line consists of several pre-designed static and semi-static crushing and screening “plug and play” modules. Set-up time and ease of operation is aided by the simple design of the modular product range. Each module bolts together on site and requires minimal onsite wiring. Mark Crooks, modular product line manager said, “With the addition of the MC1300 to our modular product line, we are now able to offer customers increased production and greater application capabilities. The MC1300 cone module can be matched with other units in the modular product line to create a system capable of processing up to 270 mtph.” The MC1300 cone module features the Terex TC1300 4 ft. (1.3 m) cone crusher powered by a 303.7 hp (225 kW) electric motor. An unrestricted feed opening and a full range of configurations for short and long throw give the TC1300 high versatility. The all roller bearing design improves crushing efficiency. Additional TC1300 features include hydraulically adjustable closed-side setting, easy manganese changes and a weather-protected control panel with user-friendly controls. Other key features of the MC1300 module include an extra heavy-duty I-beam frame and a galvanized steel structure including walkways, steps and guard rails. The module structure and all its components are CE compliant. For more information, visit www.terexmps.com.

Company Wrench has recently added DoppstadtUS as its newest partner. Company Wrench is Doppstadt’s newest dealer serving Washington, Montana, and Northern Idaho for its entire line of environmental processing equipment. Company Wrench chose Doppstadt for its environmental processing equipment because the company is a specialist for environmental technology — both mobile and stationary. The advantages of the mobile Doppstadt machines lie in their flexible application. The input material on site can easily and economically be treated and processed.
During this process, new and valuable materials are produced which can be returned to the cycle of materials. The single machines can ideally be combined forming a processing line in a mobile plant in order to carry out different steps of material processing. Customers can visit Company Wrench’s Vancouver, Wash., location to see these new machines, or visit http://www.companywrench.com/.
The advantages of the mobile Doppstadt machines lie in their flexible application.

Construction employment totaled 5.8 million in September, a gain of 20,000 from the August tally, which was revised up by 8,000 from the Labor Department’s initial estimate. The September figure is 3.4 percent higher than in September 2012, while aggregate weekly hours of all construction employees rose 4.2 percent over the year, indicating that companies are adding to existing workers’ hours in addition to hiring new employees. Employment climbed for the month and year in both residential and nonresidential construction. The industry’s unemployment rate dropped sharply over the past year, from 11.9 percent in September 2012 to 8.5 percent in September 2013 — the lowest September rate since 2007. The steep decline in the number of unemployed former construction workers suggests companies may have trouble finding experienced workers if the volume of projects continues to expand, as it did in August. “Today’s spending report showed increases in August in residential, private nonresidential and public construction,” Simonson noted. “But on a year-over-year basis, public construction has continued its long decline, private nonresidential spending is mixed,
and only home- and apartment construction is booming.” Total construction spending, as reported by the Census Bureau, climbed 0.6 percent in August from an upwardly revised July figure and 7.1 percent from August 2012. Private residential spending led the way with a 1.2 percent increase for the month and a 19 percent jump year-over-year. Private nonresidential spending eked out a 0.1 percent gain in August and a 4.3 percent rise over 12 months. Public spending rose 0.4 percent for the month but shrank 1.8 percent from a year earlier. Association officials warned that the industry’s recovery was likely impacted by the federal government shutdown. They urged federal officials to support vital water resources legislation currently being debated in Congress. “Making long-delayed repairs to our aging ports and waterways will give the construction industry a needed boost and support broader economic growth,” said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association’s chief executive officer. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

Repairing the bridge was a priority project for the Washington Department of Transportation (WSDOT) and that was reflected in the rapidity of the awarding of the contract to install a temporary span to Guy. F.W. Atkinson Construction, LLC ($8.1 million).
PCL Civil Constructors completed the third phase of the project — the steel structural upgrades to the three spans that were unaffected by the accident which had one of the four spans above the water collapse when an over-sized semi-truck hit critical steel supports on May 23.
Crews Work Days, Nights, Weekends to Complete in 66 Days COLLAPSE from page 14
The girders were installed via the use of two cranes — one on the northern dike of the Skagit River and the other on a barge in the river, which worked together to lift each girder into place. Each girder had an approximate width of 162 ft. (49 m) and weighed around 168,000 lbs. (76,204 kg). Prior to the girder installation, starting in early July, crews drove piles into the river to establish temporary work platforms to support the new bridge span during construction. At the same time, a rail system to move the new bridge span into place was set up. This required, on the east side of the bridge, for crews to drive piles that held up the temporary span after it was shifted out of the way to make room for the permanent replacement. Parsons Brinckerhoff led the design for the design-build bridge project, which had the actual road section slid into place on Sept. 14, a process that took 19 hours and required the closure of the bridge. The new bridge was open to traffic the next day at 2 p.m. This part of the work required serious planning and a set of choreographed steps series to slide and lower the sections into place. “Starting Saturday evening,
contractor crews used a complex system of hydraulic jacks, Teflon pads and long steel rails to lift and move the two sections of the temporary span onto a work platform for disassembly,” said a WSDOT press release. “Then they used a similar set-up to usher the new, 900-ton concrete span into place.” This required the services of bridge-mover Omega Morgan to safely “swap the spans.” “Although crews encountered some complications along the way — including the time-consuming process of cutting through thick metal plates before being able to lift the temporary span,” stated the press release, “they still finished building and relocating the bridge more than two weeks before WSDOT’s Oct. 1 deadline.” WSDOT’s press release acknowledged the hard work that Kuney and the subcontractors put in, noting that they “overcame numerous hurdles since starting work on the permanent span in mid-June, including a demanding schedule, complex and overlapping activities and wet weather. They worked days, nights and weekends to build the new span in 66 days, hitting a major milestone in mid-August with the setting of eight enormous concrete girders to support the new roadway.”
With its part of the project completed, Kuney crews removed its equipment and the temporary platforms from the riverbed. “Our team was pleased to be a part of restoring this very important highway connection for the Skagit community and the state,” said Kuney Company President Max J. Kuney. As mentioned, PCL crews worked on the steel superstructure of the three spans that did not collapse and effected repairs. This third phase of the project is worth $2.7 million. “We are placing new steel members on the ends of each existing spans to give the bridge more redundancy and we are also replacing all of the sway frames — cutting them out and putting in new ones,” said Bob Lewis, PCL’s project manager, “in order to increase the vertical clearance of the entire bridge structure. The existing sway frames are arched down to the steel column posts and those are the members that are susceptible of getting hit by oversize loads. They are being replaced with horizontal members that will increase the vertical clearance to 18 feet.” PCL could only begin work after the permanent span was installed in order to allow Kuney to focus its efforts, and this prevented
PCL engineers and crews from examining the site. Due to the time constraints and the inability to access the site prior to ordering steel PCL had to base its dimensions for the shop drawings on the as-built drawing dimensions. On a normal structural steel project, the contractor would be responsible for field verifying all dimensions prior to ordering steel. “It was a month’s process to secure the structural steel and we picked up a month by ordering in advance of field measuring,” said Lewis, who noted that about 34 tons (30.8 t) of steel was removed for recycling and 74 tons (67 t) of steel should be installed. PCL has 15 iron workers and four laborers responsible for traffic control on site, working eight hour shifts from Sunday to Saturday (morning). “The main challenge is getting things to fit,” said Lewis. “It’s just a little slow and tedious, but we’re getting there. We are basically retro-fitting an existing steel structure and we’re progressing on schedule — the crews have developed a good rhythm.” Other work includes rivet removals and painting underneath the structure. The steel, I-beams, gusset plates, stiffener plates, and other
parts are stored in a temporary yard and every day the steel need for that night is loaded into a 36 ft. (11 m) — 2 axle Ledwell trailer via a Genie GTH-842 8000 lb. (3,629 kg) forklift. Also being employed are Genie Z-30/20N personnell lifts, JLG 10,000 lb. (4,536 kg) Skytrak lifts, Honda EB5000X generators, and Slugger portable magnetic drills. Lewis, who also looks after the equipment, noted that no new equipment was purchased for the project and that the company purchases equipment from dealers such as PACO in Seattle. When needed, PCL sends in a mechanic to do repairs. Like the other major contractors, PCL crews are pleased to be part of the bridge replacement project. “It’s important to get this community back to normal,” said Lewis. “Burlington and Mount Vernon have been hit hard economically because people are avoiding the area and nearby big shopping malls. We’re doing our best to get this project done before the holiday shopping season and get things back to normal.” (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment Guide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)
