First Tennessee Park, Nashville’s new ballpark for theNashville Sounds Triple-A Minor League baseball team, hascost $10 million more than planned due to unexpected con-

struction issues.With an initial budget of $65 million, the city-financed stadium has now exceeded

$75 million in costs, which include $47 million in construction costs alone, plus $23million in land acquisitions and $5 million in capitalized cost, as well as $5 million forstreet and sidewalk paving and new water and electrical lines. The tally doesn’t include$5 million in infrastructure work the city has performed in order to accommodate thenew stadium.

The 15 percent increase stems from unexpected but necessary environmental reme-

Nashville Ballpark OpensDespite Challenges

Construction costs fell again in March, according to IHSand the Procurement Executives Group (PEG). The headlinecurrent IHS PEG Engineering and Construction Cost Index(ECCI) registered 44.7 in March, a slight uptick fromFebruary’s record low, but still considerably below a neutralreading. The headline index has not indicated rising costssince December 2014.

“The rout in crude oil markets is clearly having a chillingeffect on capital expenditure plans,” said Mark Eisinger, sen-ior economist at IHS. “That said, survey respondents remainoptimistic that projects are simply being delayed and not can-celed.”

The current materials/equipment index registered 43.0 inMarch, a slight improvement from February’s 39.6 reading,but still consistent with the overall narrative of softer prices.Nine of 12 individual components registered falling prices inMarch, led by copper-based wire and cable, carbon steelpipe, alloy steel pipe and fabricated structural steel.

Copper-based wire and cable has now shown fallingprices for five of the past six months.

“Non-ferrous metals markets continue to be weigheddown by the specter of slowing consumption growth in keyemerging markets and dampened investor interest due to thepending normalization of U.S. monetary policy,” said FrankHoffman, senior economist at IHS.

Ready-mix concrete was the outlier in the March survey asthe only underlying component showing higher month onmonth prices.

IHS, PEG ReportIndustry PricesContinue to Fall

Even as construction firms added jobs in 41states between March 2014 and March 2015,construction employment declined in 29 statesand the District of Columbia betweenFebruary and March, according to an analysisof Labor Department data by the AssociatedGeneral Contractors of America. Associationofficials cautioned that ongoing D.C. gridlockover how to pay for needed infrastructure

improvements and declining demand for oil-related projects likely contributed to so manystates shedding construction jobs in March.

"While the year-over-year data remains rel-atively positive, it is troubling to see so manystates losing construction jobs during the pastmonth," said Ken Simonson, the association'schief economist. "As energy firms cancel ordelay projects and Congressional action on

transportation and other infrastructure meas-ures remains stalled, many construction firmsappear to be reducing headcount, at least tem-porarily."

California added more new constructionjobs (46,300 jobs, 6.9 percent) between March2014 and March 2015 than any other state.Other states adding a high number of new con-

Yancey Bros. Co. Hosts Open House in Savannah, Ga.

Yancey Bros. Co. hosted a Savannah, Ga., parts opera-tions open house event on April 2. Attendees stopped in tosee the newly expanded parts order and pick up operation,which now consolidates parts for all of Yancey’s divisions,including construction equipment, engine, electric powerand bus parts at the Savannah, Ga., location into one central-ized facility. Lots of giveaways and door prizes were award-ed during the event, and a barbecue lunch was served.

Andrea Clenny, Yancey Bros. Co., coordinated the partsconsolidation.

She said that truck and bus parts, as well as generatorparts, have now been moved into the earthmoving store,

which consolidates earthmoving, generator, bus and truckparts and all parts personnel into one building. The parts forthe Power Systems division had been previously stored inthat facility’s shop area. After the move, the Power Systemsservice department gained three extra shop bays, givingYancey Bros. Co. the space to work on more equipment.

“We had plenty of additional room in the parts departmentof the earthmoving store to add the bus and truck parts oper-ations, and we actually have plenty more room for addition-al parts stocking growth at this location,” said Clenny.

Clenny said the parts consolidation has been in the plan-

Andrea Clenny and Darin Moxley, Yancey Bros. Co., in the newly consolidated partswarehouse at the Savannah, Ga., branch facility.

Employees of Superior Sanitation, a division of Waste Management, visit YanceyBros. Co. for the open house. (L-R) are Brett Bowen; Tom Rhodes, Yancey machinesales representative; Doug Lawson; and Jason Younis.

The Yancey Savannah, Ga., campus is comprised of three separate buildings housing the earthmoving and parts,hydraulic service and power systems divisions.

Jason McLarty, Yancey Power Systems branch manag-er, directs a Savannah Fire truck into one of the shopbays for immediate service.

A barbecue lunch was served to guests during theevent.

Armstrong Contractors ‘Goes Green’ By Eric OlsonCEG CORRESPONDENT

In the new millennium, construction companies areincreasingly realizing the merit — and potential profits — ofbeing environmentally responsible.

No matter what business owners personally think aboutthe impact of humans on the environment, most now cer-tainly see how lucrative it can be to “go green.” Not only dothese endeavors fill their coffers, but they are also a provenway to boost a firm’s cost savings

A good example of a company successfully adding greenefforts to its business model is Columbia-based ArmstrongContractors, a full service site-work outfit that has been oper-ating from the South Carolina capital since 1961.

The firm is run by three brothers, Michael, Robert andThomas Armstrong, who represent the second generation intheir family to do so.

Their father, David Armstrong, and two partners startedthe company 54 years ago as an asphalt paving and gradingbusiness.

“Today, primarily, we do commercial paving, grading andutilities — that is 90 percent of our operation — but we arealso now recycling concrete and asphalt,” said MichaelArmstrong, who serves as company president.

With that in mind, Armstrong Contractors recently pur-chased Powerscreen equipment that allows it to run aportable crushing operation. At its yard, it recycles concreteand asphalt products into reusable material for parking areas,as well as for road projects in a 100-mi. (160 km) radius ofits office.

The business currently maintains about 45,000 tons(40,823.3 t) of concrete and 25,000 tons (22,679 t) of asphaltat its 44-acre yard. That material comes from various demo-lition projects in the area that Armstrong has worked on overthe years.

Recycled Material Equals Big SavingsInstead of hauling this material to a landfill, as was done

in the past, it now gets a second life.And, it is actually a savings to Armstrong Contractors to

reuse the asphalt and concrete rather than paying a tipping ordumping fee.

“Certainly, by recycling, every bit of this material has ause — nothing is left over,” said Thomas Armstrong, whoserves as his firm’s secretary and treasurer. “It costs $21 perton to dump this material into a construction and demolitionlandfill in the Columbia area. However, we can bring it backhere and turn it into a usable product by running it throughthe crushing machine, screening it and segregating it into dif-ferent reusable products.

“Our costs to bring it here are practically zero beyond thehauling and fuel costs. That is a tremendous savings for us.”

Powerscreen Has What It TakesThe portable recycling machines Armstrong just pur-

chased came from Powerscreen Mid-Atlantic, a regionaldealer for Powerscreen equipment. Armstrong bought aPremiertrak R400 jaw crusher with a hydraulic release thatfeeds old asphalt into a Trakpactor 250 horizontal shaftimpactor for refining the stone prior to its feed into a Warrior800 dry screener.

According to Ian Williamson, Powerscreen Mid-

Shown from left to right are the Powerscreen Premiertrak R400 hydraulic release primary jaw crusher,Powerscreen Trakpactor 250 and Powerscreen Warrior 800.

(L-R): Thomas and Michael Armstrong of ArmstrongContractors and Jeff Hunter and Ian Williamson ofPowerscreen Mid-Atlantic discuss the Powerscreenequipment line.

According to Ian Williamson, Powerscreen Mid-Atlantic’s sales manager, the jaw crusher reduces theold asphalt and concrete into a minus 6-in. (15.24 cm)product, then the impactor turns it into a minus 2-in.(5.08 cm) stone and the screen removes the oversize.

Private Firms, Public Agencies Honored by ARTBAHighway, bridge and tunnel projects from

Arizona, New Jersey and Florida were recog-nized for their contributions to environmentalprotection and mitigation during the AmericanRoad & Transportation Builders AssociationTransportation Development Foundation’s(ARTBA-TDF) 16th annual “Globe Awards”event, held April 14 in the Nation’s Capitol aspart of the association’s Federal IssuesProgram.

The “Globe Awards” recognize:• Private-sector firms and public-sector

transportation agencies that do an outstandingjob in protecting and/or enhancing the naturalenvironment in the planning, design and con-struction of U.S. transportation infrastructureprojects; and

• Transportation construction-related prod-uct manufacturers and material suppliers thatutilize exemplary environmental processes toprotect and enhance the natural environment.

An independent panel of industry profes-sionals reviewed all of the nominations andselected the winners in three categories. The2015 winners are:

Category: Bridges (Projects <$10 Million)

Ames Construction Inc. & ArizonaDepartment of Transportation (ADOT):“SR 90 San Pedro River BridgeReplacement Project”

ADOT and Ames Construction replaced the26-ft. (8 m) wide steel girder San Pedro RiverBridge built in 1955 with a 44-ft. (13 m) widepre-cast girder structure in the San PedroRiparian National Conservation Area. Thestructure, which features two 12-ft. (3.6 m)travel lanes and 10 ft. (3 m) wide shoulders,was raised 6 ft. (1.8 m) to accommodate 100-year flood plain requirements. The project teamemployed a biologist who monitored construc-tion activities and surveyed the environmentalimpacts on perennial waterways, more than200 animal species and 250 migrant birdspecies in the area. Environmental mitigationmeasures included a containment plan to avoidcontaminating the San Pedro River and streamswith debris and construction materials, the re-seeding and planting of trees, lead paint abate-ment before demolition of the old bridge andhalting project work after March to avoid dis-rupting the migratory bird nesting season.

Hunter Contracting Co. and GunnCommunications: “Greenway ParkwayBridge”

In 2014, Hunter Contracting Co. and GunnCommunications were contracted by the city ofPhoenix Street Transportation Department toreconstruct the Greenway Parkway Bridge atCave Creek Wash in Moon Valley, Phoenix.Since being built in 1988, the GreenwayParkway Bridge exhibited serious signs of

structural deficiencies that cost the city $1 to $2million annually in repairs and maintenance.The project, completed ahead of schedule andunder budget, saved tax payers $1.1 millionand features a unique triple box culvert struc-ture that resists differential expansion cracking,settlement and progressive degradation thatplagued the old 212 ft. (64.6 m) bridge andeliminates the threat of monsoon flooding.

Category: Major Highway (Project >$100 Million)

Dewberry and New Jersey Department ofTransportation (NJDOT): “Route 3 overPassaic River Bridge”

NJDOT collaborated with Dewberry toreplace the deteriorating Route 3 moveablebridge over the Passaic River with a fixedbridge, and construct collector-distributerroads, acceleration and deceleration lanes, andnoise barriers in Passaic County. The projectincorporated a series of environmental protec-tion techniques that led to the restoration ofDundee Island Preserve, which has a long his-tory of underutilized shore properties anddegraded water quality and ecology. By utiliz-ing riparian mitigation measures, the teamrecreated a waterfront park, removed contami-nated soil, built 20 retaining walls to minimizethe disturbance of wetlands, planted new trees,added fishing platforms and rehabilitated a 90-year old sewer that crosses under Route 3.

Category: Tunnels (Project >$100 Million)

Nossaman and Florida Department ofTransportation (FDOT): “Port MiamiTunnel”

The Port Miami Tunnel (PMT) underBiscayne Bay, linking Port facilities on DodgeIsland with a widened MacArthur Causewaybridge and I-395 in Miami, is a public-privatepartnership project between FDOT andNossaman. The $1 billion project features twintunnels that are 4,200 ft. (1,280 m) in length, 39ft. (12 m) in diameter and 120 ft. (36.5 m)below the surface of the main shipping chan-nel. Since the PMT opened in August 2014,there has been a 35 percent and 77 percentreduction in the average volume of trafficentering/exiting the Port through surface roadsand commercial truck traffic respectively. Tominimize the impact on the environment, theproject team took precautions to not disrupt theextensive seagrass beds which are a foodsource for native manatees, sea turtles andcorals in Biscayne Bay, included a sedimentmonitoring plan to dispose of waste materialsin specially designed wells, a spoil materialmanagement plan to keep contamination fromspoil materials within the Aquatic Preserve andrequired all in-water activities to shut down if amanatee was within 50 ft. (15 m) of work.

JLG President Calls for Use of Technology to Improve SafetyImagine a work environment where smart vests

can communicate with aerial work platforms(AWPs) to warn operators that their harness lan-yards are not connected to the anchor points. Orpicture a world where smart machines equippedwith sensors can contribute to collision avoidanceand detection.

The 250-strong audience at the IPAF Summit onMarch 26 in Washington, D.C., got a glimpse ofhow the technology explosion can be used toenhance safety. Keynote speaker FrankNerenhausen, president of JLG, showed howwearables, augmented reality and remote operationcould be harnessed in a powerful system of pre-vention and control.

At the same time, Nerenhausen underlined thevalue of human education and intervention:“Training must continue to play a prominent role asour industry advances,” he said.

During the discussion following Nerenhausen’spresentation, IPAF CEO Tim Whiteman revealedthat prompted by discussions with JLG, a new cat-egory for innovative technology would be intro-duced at the next International Awards for PoweredAccess (IAPAs), to be held with the IPAF Summiton March 17, 2016, in Madrid, Spain.

Technology Assists Construction of New Landfill CellBy Jeff Winkespecial to ceg

in the online resource,www.HowstuffWorks.com, there is a com-plete description of how landfills work.

the article, How landfills Work:Building the landfill, simplifies the processby showing how trash is disposed, the partsof a landfill, what happens to the waste that’sin a landfill and how landfills are operated.the article gives insights into the complexi-ty of landfills. one learns they are not holesin the ground where everything and anythingis dumped, but rather “a carefully designedstructure built into or on top of the ground inwhich trash is isolated from the surroundingenvironment.”

summers-taylor inc. understands land-fills and the complexities of building them. itregularly constructs landfill cells as part ofits portfolio of services.

Based in elizabethton, tenn., the mid-sized construction contractor serves thetennessee, Virginia and North carolina mar-kets. constructing new landfill sites oradding cells to existing ones is a companyspecialty. and using construction technologyto ensure productivity and best results hasbecome summers-taylor’s hallmark.

With approximately 375 employees and500 pieces of construction equipment andtrucks, the company works on environmen-tal construction — which includes landfills,site preparation, bridge construction and pip-ing and utilities. summers-taylor also is asignificant highway construction player inthe area with its five concrete and fourasphalt plants.

“a recent major project of ours has been

the construction of a 6.8-acre landfill cell inMorristown, tennessee, for the Wasteindustries’s lakeway sanitation &Recycling landfill,” said greg Keene, officeengineer and estimator of summers-taylor.“We moved 300,000 cubic yards of soil tocreate the site.”

the company has done quite a bit of land-fill projects and was the general contractoron the $3 million Morristown landfill project

to complete the project, summers-taylorused a John Deere 700K low pressurecrawler dozer and a Komatsu D65pX-17low pressure crawler dozer. Both machines

were equipped with topcon 3D-Mc2 gpsmachine control.

summers-taylor worked with glennetienne of construction engineeringsolutions, based in leopold, ind., to create a3D site model, which was used to govern themachines equipped with machine controltechnology.

“the topcon systems helped usimmensely in placing the clay liner andmeeting the required compaction tests,”Keene said. “approximately 25,000 cubicyards was required to achieve the two-footdeep clay liner, which was placed in six-inchlifts.”

to create the new 30-ft. (9.1 m) deep cell,summers-taylor needed to abide by toler-ances that were very tight. the companyused a combination of dozers, excavators,and scrapers to carve out the cell’s footprints.the excavated material was stockpiled forcovering the layers of waste placed in thelandfill cell.

even before the base grade elevation wasestablished, summers-taylor had to exca-vate down at least more than a couple feet tomake sure rocks or rock outcroppings wereremoved so they wouldn’t migrate up andpenetrate the clay liner.

“Machine control technology was criticalin helping us achieve the mandatedplus/minus 1/10 of a foot on the subgrade atthe bottom of the cell and the zero to 1,500thof a foot grade on the clay liner,” said Keene.“it would have been tough, time-consuming,and much more costly to achieve what weneeded by pounding grade stakes and usingtraditional methods requiring an onsite sur-vey crew to pull grade.”

Constructing new landfill sites or adding cells to existing ones is Summers-TaylorInc.’s specialty.

To complete the $3 million Morristown landfill project, Summers-Taylor used a JohnDeere 700K low pressure crawler dozer and a Komatsu D65PX-17 low pressurecrawler dozer. Both machines were equipped with Topcon 3D-MC2 GPS machinecontrol.

With approximately 375 employees and 500 pieces of construction equipment andtrucks, Summers-Taylor Inc. works on environmental construction — whichincludes landfills, site preparation, bridge construction and piping and utilities. see LANDFILL page 72

When it comes to infrastructure, Washington, D.C., is fail-ing the American people, said AED Chairman Don Shillingat a Capitol Hill press conference today. Shilling is presidentof General Equipment & Supplies, a heavy constructionequipment dealership based in Fargo, N.D.

The event was organized by Senate Environment &Public Works (EPW) Chairman James Inhofe (R-Okla.) andRanking Member Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) to remind theircongressional colleagues that authorization for federal high-way spending expires at the end of May and that theHighway Trust Fund (HTF) will run out of money late thissummer. With the clock running down, Congress has madelittle progress on how to pay for a new multiyear bill andrestore the HTF’s long-term solvency.

“It’s difficult to put into words just how frustrated AED’smembers are with Washington,” Shilling said. “Watchingfrom a distance, there seems to be unlimited time for parti-san bickering but not enough time to do the people’s work.”Shilling thanked Inhofe and Boxer, saying they were rareexceptions who were working hard and collaborating acrossparty lines to keep Congress focused on the need to fix theHTF.

Shilling noted that Congress’ failure to fix the programhas real-world economic consequences.

“Federal road and bridge spending creates about $2.4 bil-lion in demand for construction machinery each year anddirectly supports about 4,000 equipment dealership jobsnationwide,” he said. “All that economic activity — and thelivelihoods of those 4,000 families — is in jeopardy asCongress once again waits until the last minute to kick thecan down the road.”

Shilling said that AED members have one message forlawmakers: “You were sent here to govern, so get to work!Put aside your partisan differences, roll up your sleeves,compromise, fix the HTF, and pass a fully funded, long-termhighway bill.

“The men and women of the construction industry arestanding by to build the roads, bridges and transit systemsAmerica will need to compete and prosper in the 21st cen-tury,” he continued. “But Congress needs to do its job beforewe can do ours.”

Shilling pledged that he and his equipment industry col-leagues would keep up the political pressure “until Congressgets the job done.”

Alabama Paving Company Diversifies, Survives Recession “When the going gets tough, the tough get

going.” Never does this old proverb ring more

true than in a recession. Just ask a businessowner who has survived his share of lowtimes.

Mark Alexander, owner of AlexanderSealcoating & Striping Inc. in Montgomery,Ala., knows all too well the heat a recessionbrings. Having pushed his paving and seal-coating business through the recession of1992 and the 2008 economic dip, he knowsthe ins and outs of running an efficient com-pany. To keep his business afloat, Alexanderemploys crewmembers with integrity andpassion to do good work, all powered by afleet of high-quality, reliable equipment.

Alexander Sealcoating began in 1959 as aparking lot paving company focused on res-idential and commercial asphalt jobs, suchas paving, hot tar crack filling and parkinglot layout.

Alexander took the business over from hisfather in 1989 andpurchased a trailer-mounted 550T seal-coating machine fromNeal Manufacturingto broaden the com-pany’s offerings. Hechose Neal because itwas in close proximi-ty.

But it was morethan convenience thatsold him on purchas-ing his next Nealmachine, and the oneafter and the one afterthat. His experiencewith Neal matchedwhat he had heard,and the product quali-ty and level of cus-tomer service led him to loyalty with thecompany.

Alexander didn’t know it at the time, butadding sealcoating to the company’s offer-ings would significantly grow the estab-lished business, and ultimately keep it run-ning.

Integrity, Quality Workmanship Although Alexander describes it as a

“nothing special small business,” those whohave benefited from the family-owned com-pany’s work disagree. With years of experi-ence in traffic flow and close attention toquality control, the company maps out whatmakes the most sense for each business.Alexander looks at not only the end result ofa new parking lot, but the constructionphase, as well, to ensure stores can stay openthrough the project with little interruption.

The typical job is about 11,000 sq. yds.

(9,197.4 sq m), which mainly encompassesparking lots for shopping centers, apartmentcomplexes and military bases.

This expertise and reputation is whatgives Alexander the confidence to guaranteethe company’s work. But, until it offeredsealcoating, it couldn’t complete the entirejob for its customers.

Without sealcoating and striping,Alexander said they weren’t getting as muchbusiness as they could have overall. And,although the sealcoating portion of the busi-ness is only about 20 percent, it had a biggerimpact when it came to booking jobs. Plus,transferring to a full-service company meantAlexander Sealcoating could potentially bethe only company working on each parkinglot project in his area.

“When you offer sealcoating and striping,property owners are more likely to call youto do the other jobs,” Alexander said. “We

didn’t want businesses going to anyoneelse for parking lot-related work in thiscity and beyond.”

Spreading OutJust as he suspected, adding sealcoat-

ing to the company’s scope madeAlexander Sealcoating a full-serviceparking lot company and helped themseal the deal — literally and figurative-ly — for more clients.

Since the expansion in 1989,Alexander has kept up with the growth

by purchasing two additional Neal 550Sskid-mounted machines, and a DA-350 dualapplicator, which can apply sealcoat withboth squeegee and spray systems. TheAnniston, Ala., based company even fabri-cated a one-of-a-kind unit into the back ofone of Alexander’s trucks. It uses an auxil-iary motor so two of the hydraulic-poweredpiston pumps run independently from oneanother. This way, crews always have abackup pump. Finally, Alexander purchaseda 5,000 gal. (18,927) skid storage tank withan electric super sand pump.

“The ESSP is crucial to our success, andit’s the reason I buy Neal. There’s no alter-native,” Alexander said. “Diaphragm pumpsaren’t even on my radar because of the main-tenance and rebuilds they require, and I don’tlike downtime.”

Neal’s ESSP has 75 percent fewer partsthan traditional air pumps. Leather cups

tightly seal the plates to prevent materialfrom leaking. While diaphragm pumpsrequire daily flushing to prevent the rubberseals from degrading, operators can run asmuch as 200,000 gal. (757,082.3 L) throughbefore Neal’s leather cup seals wear,depending on the sand load. Further, usersonly need to flush them once a year, whichcan save up to 30 minutes per day.

Aside from the easy cleanup, Alexandersaid these units help the crew work moreefficiently.

While diaphragm pumps can handle asmuch as 2 lbs. (4.4 kg) of sand per gallon,Neal’s pumps easily move as much as 8 lbs.(3.6 kg) of sand per gallon. Since they canmove more mix through faster, the team isable to put down more than 150,000 gal(567,811.8 kg) per year on residential andcommercial projects. The skid and trailermounted units also are capable of transfer-ring as much as 100 gal. (378.5 L) of mate-rial into the tank per minute, which is thefastest transfer rate on the market.

With the 5,000 gal. (18,927 L) storagetank in the fleet, Alexander can mix materialovernight. The crew hauls it to the site thenext day to fill the truck and sealcoatingmachines to save mixing time on the job.

“We still have to spend the time mixingthe materials, but we can do it when the proj-ect closes down for the night,” Alexandersaid. “That way, the next day we can be as

Neal’s ESSP, hydraulic-powered piston pumps can transfer as much as 100 gal.(378.5 L) of material per minute.

Five Neal Machines, Storage Tank Remain in Operation efficient as possible, because our seven hours of mixing materialsis already done.”

Surviving the StruggleAside from overall efficiency, Alexander recognizes the liveli-

hood of his company came down to the 1989 expansion. Withoutthe addition of sealcoating, it’s not likely the company would havesurvived the recession of 1992 or 2008.

Alexander said the company has always had good financialplanning and a solid work ethic. Even so, he said, getting throughthe 2008 recession was the most difficult time the company hasseen.

“It was the hardest thing I’ve done. Only one out of every fourcompanies in our industry made it. We were losing 50 percent ofour gross income. It was extremely tough to make it work,”Alexander said. “If it weren’t for those low-maintenance Nealmachines and the sealcoating aspect of our business — we would-n’t have made it.”

All five Neal machines and the storage tank are still in operationtoday — even the first unit Alexander bought 25 years ago. He andhis crew continue doing each job well, with a dedication to quali-ty work and keeping customers updated on each job’s progress.

“Success, to me, is a repeat customer,” Alexander said. “That’swhat we work for doing a really good job to get hired again in thefuture.”

In other words, seal the deal. Every time.(This story also can be found on Construction Equipment

Cummins Unveils Next Generation Component TechnologyCummins revealed a selection of next

generation innovations at Intermat 2015,showcasing the full spectrum of its expertisein component technologies for the commer-cial diesel engine.

Cummins Turbo Technologies, a globalengineering leader in turbocharger technolo-gy, unveiled its next generation Holset VGT,designed to improve turbo efficiencies anddeliver greater fuel economy. This latestinnovation in VGT technology offers multi-ple benefits, such as enhanced integrationwith the engine system due to a new actua-tor, improved durability, and optimized per-formance through the moving-shroud vari-able geometry mechanism. The next genera-tion series 300 variable geometry tur-bocharger is capable of improving turbo effi-ciencies by up to 12 percent at low enginespeed as well as delivering reduced carbondioxide (CO2) emissions. In addition, thislatest solution is 10 percent lighter than itsexisting counterpart, creating greater fueleconomy, according to the manufacturer.

Cummins Emission Solutions, a globalleader in aftertreatment technologies, intro-duced the first of its next generation ofaftertreatment platforms for future emissionsregulations — the EcoFit single module.This platform product is a potential solution

designed to meet Stage Vrequirements in a small,light-weight, simple androbust advancedaftertreatment systempackage.

The EcoFit singlemodule, designed forheavy-duty and midrangeengine applications, is up to60 percent smaller and 40 per-cent lighter compared to today’scombined selective catalytic reduction(SCR) and diesel particulate filter (DPF)systems while achieving advanced emis-sions reductions levels. The system enableseasier equipment integration for OEM cus-tomers, and its lower weight minimizes theimpact on equipment weight, which willcontribute towards improving fuel economy,according to the manufacturer.

Advancements in catalyst technologiesare enabling efficiency improvementsthroughout the entire system, and CumminsEmissions Solutions has invested in DPFtechnologies with higher ash capacities,allowing for more time between cleaningintervals for its customers. The SCR cata-lysts, coupled with the EcoFit UL2 liquid-only urea dosing system, offer enhanced

oxides ofnitrogen (NOx)reduction, and,linked withimproved thermalmanagement capabili-ty, deliver the optimumsolution for emissions reduction and mini-mized fuel and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF)usage.

Suzanne Wells, executive director —

sales and marketing, compo-nents business, said “Thesenext generation component

technologies deliver a numberof technical advances, to sat-isfy market and customerdemands. Over the last few

years, we have seen contin-ued demand for smaller,

lighter, high-quality compo-nents to drive diesel engine effi-

ciency improvements, as well asthe industry requirement from man-

ufacturers for equal and higher poweroutputs.“The latest technological enhancements

enable us to meet these demands, as well asoffer greater versatility, which allows thedevelopment of tailored customer solu-tions.”

“Safety is not a luxury;it’s a necessity that everyworker deserves,” saidJordan Barab, U.S. deputyassistant secretary of laborfor Occupational Safetyand Health, speaking to anaudience of about 250 atthe IPAF Summit onMarch 26, 2015, inWashington, D.C.

Falls from heightremain the leading causeof occupational fatalitiesin the United States andmany other countries.Preliminary data for 2013 show 574 fatalfalls across all industries in the United States,with 284 in construction and 88 in residen-tial, revealed Barab in his presentation.

He commended the powered accessindustry for its commitment to providingsafe equipment for work at height, and com-mended IPAF for providing training in mul-tiple languages, including Spanish andChinese, thus enabling training in languagesthat workers can understand.

Barab announced thatOSHA would be turningits attention to aerial liftuse in residential con-struction and also calledon IPAF and its membersto support OSHA’sNational Safety Stand-Down, which runs fromMay 4 to 15, 2015. This isa major effort to preventfalls in constructionthrough education andawareness that willinvolve some three mil-lion workers across the

United States. Details are atwww.osha.gov/StopFallsStandDown

IPAF CEO Tim Whiteman confirmed thatIPAF would give OSHA’s Safety Stand-Down its full support, calling on resourcesfrom IPAF’s accident reporting project andother safety campaigns.

The American Road & Transportation BuildersAssociation (ARTBA) announced the launch of a digitalmedia campaign to amplify the voices of the transportationdesign and construction industry as Congress nears criticaldeadlines on how to fund road, bridge and public transitimprovement projects.

At issue is the federal Highway Trust Fund (HTF), whichis the source, on average, of more than 52 percent of high-way and bridge capital investments made annually by stategovernments. The current federal highway/transit fundingauthorization expires on May 31 unless Congress takesaction, and the next HTF cash crisis could occur later thissummer.

ARTBA is utilizing the platform of Phone2Action, aWashington, D.C.-based digital grassroots company, to helpits members and supporters contact Congress more easilythrough social media, phone calls and email.

With 90 percent of Americans owning cell phones andnearly 75 percent using social media, along with the fact thatall 100 U.S. senators and 97 percent of the U.S. House ofRepresentatives have Twitter and Facebook accounts, thePhone2Action platform makes it easy for the industry’sgrassroots activists to use their phones or tablets to reachelected officials with messages about the need to fix the HTF

and pass a long-term transportation bill.The new campaign — with the hashtag #fixthetrustfund

— launched April 14 during ARTBA’s Federal IssuesProgram in the Nation’s Capitol. In just three days, ARTBAmembers and industry professionals have connected withhundreds of policy makers, sending more than 1,000 emails,tweets and Facebook postings to their members of Congress,underscoring popular support for fixing the HTF.

Information about the campaign also is being made avail-able through an instant alert text messaging system, whichcan be accessed by texting HIGHWAY to 52886.

A U.S. Department ofTransportation (DOT) pilot programthat would allow state and local trans-portation agencies to utilize local hir-ing preferences on federal-aid highwayand transit projects will increase costs,decrease competition, and could actu-ally result in less frequent hiring ofminorities and women, according tothe American Road and TransportationBuilders Association (ARTBA).

U.S. Secretary of TransportationAnthony Foxx announced the one-yearpilot program on March 3. The agencysaid allowing the local preferences willenable “disadvantaged workers in thecommunities where projects are locat-ed to benefit from the economic oppor-tunities such projects represent.” Stateor local transportation agencies wouldneed to initiate a hiring preference andseek approval from the FederalHighway Administration or FederalTransit Administration through thepilot program. Previously, U.S. DOTprohibited these provisions on all fed-eral-aid highway and transit projects,which require the competitive low bidprocess. Under the department’s long-time interpretation of this low-bid

requirement, hiring preferences couldnegatively influence competition bydisfavoring or eliminating contractingfirms unable to meet local hiringrequirements.

In April 3 comments, ARTBA said itagrees with U.S. DOT’s assertion that“transportation investments and poli-cies can improve access to jobs, educa-tion, and goods movement, while pro-viding construction and operationsjobs.” However, contrary to theagency’s assertions, ARTBA observedthat local hiring preferences can actual-ly function as barriers to facilitatingeconomic and job growth.

The association said that preferringone group of individuals over anotherbased on residency would almost cer-tainly limit competition in the biddingprocess and warned such require-ments could disrupt the stability oftransportation construction jobs byforcing companies to lay off workersthat do not live in the preferred geo-graphic area.

ARTBA urged U.S. DOT to consid-er the pilot program’s safety implica-tions — an unintended consequence ofgeographic-based preferences could

force companies to hire individuals forpositions in which they have no quali-fications. If training them within theproject’s time frame is impractical andunsafe, then they may be given jobduties that are safer and more peripher-al, but largely unnecessary to the proj-ect itself. As a result, the associationsaid, the transportation project wouldcost taxpayers more.

ARTBA also noted that geographic-based preferences could dilute existingregulatory requirements aimed atincreasing the employment of minori-ties and women in transportation con-struction.

In its conclusion, ARTBA called onthe U.S. DOT to focus its energies ondeveloping and building political andpublic support for a long-term, stableproposal to grow federal HighwayTrust Fund revenues. Such a course,the association said, would allow thenation to improve its transportationinfrastructure and grow the size of theworkforce building and maintaining it.

Talbert Launches Updated Traveling Axle Trailer SeriesTalbert Manufacturing updat-

ed its traveling axle (TA) seriesby increasing its hauling capacityby 5 tons (4.5 t). Three of thenew trailer models — the4048TA, 4050TA and 4053TA —have a 40-ton hauling capacity,and the new 5548TA and5553TA trailer models haul asmuch as 55 tons (50 t). The fivenew trailer models will replacethe others within the TA Series.

The added capacity on the newTA Series trailers equates toincreased hauling flexibility. Forexample, the 4050TA now has an80,000-lb. (36,287 kg) evenlydistributed capacity or a concen-trated load capacity of 50,000 lb.(22,679 kg) in 10 ft. (3 m). Thisallows haulers to expand theirrange of load opportunities andmaximize transportation efficien-cy, while complying with U.S.state and Canadian provincehauling requirements.

The TA Series trailers feature a

36-in. (91 cm) loaded deckheight, which provides additionalclearance for bridges and tunnelswhen transporting tall equip-ment. The 4050TA was the firstmodel released in the updated TASeries with this low deck heightfeature, and it also is California-legal, making the 4050TA anideal west coast hauling trailer.

The five new TA Series trailermodels feature Talbert’s signa-ture piggy-back cylinder, nowwith a larger diameter for fasteraxle travel. The new models alsohave an increased number ofkeyholes across the rear of thetrailer for additional flexibilityfor tying down loads, animproved, lockable curbsidegooseneck toolbox that includesa weather resistant door seal, aswell as a chain rack and otherhardware upgrades.

Another key advancementwith the new TA Series trailers isthe standard metal e-chain for the

air and electrical lines, whichnow makes it both easier and lessexpensive to add optional docklevelers as an aftermarket option.

The TA Series trailers featurekey trailer components for easyloading on its 7-degree loadangle. Talbert’s standard equip-ment for the series includes a15,000-lb. (6,804 kg) planetarywinch with a two-function, wire-less remote. It assists in movingequipment on and off of the trail-

er by making it possible for oneperson to load a piece of equip-ment without leaving the vehicle.Talbert also offers two otherupgrade options; a six-functionremote and a 20,000-lb. (9,072kg) planetary winch. The six-function remote provides theoperator with the ability to adjustthe movement of the axles,winch and deck while loading.

The TA Series trailers comestandard with double keyhole tie-

down slots on top of the outsidebeams and recessed in the centerof the main deck. For recessedtie-downs, Talbert includes ametal basket that is mountedbelow the deck to protect themain cylinder from excess chain.

Talbert has multiple, optionalfeatures to enhance the TA Seriestrailers. Available coating selec-tions include the standardValspar R-Cure 800 paint inTalbert’s signature red andoptional Valspar Aquaguard forcorrosion protection. Additionaloptional equipment includes a48-in. (122 cm) aluminum/steelbulkhead with strobe and worklights, a centralized lubrication sys-tem and a right weigh load scale.

In celebration of 100 years of innovation,experience and reliability, General Tirelaunched three new highway truck tires atthis year’s Mid-America Trucking Show(MATS) in Louisville, Ky.

The General HS is a new long haul steertire featuring an enhanced tread design, fuel-efficient compounding and an upgraded cas-ing platform. The five rib tread pattern,including a straight groove bottom design,promotes even wear and high removalmileage. Additionally, the grooves featurepyramidal shaped stone ejectors to preventstone retention and increase retreadability.

Upgraded compounding in the GeneralHS leads to longer removal mileage whilestill delivering optimal fuel economy. Thecasing features an enhanced bead to beltpackage increasing overall durability for

maximum retreadability. All of these com-ponents utilize proven technology andcombine to deliver optimized longhaulage performance, according to themanufacturer.

The launch of the new General HS tirewill begin in May 2015 with the release ofthe 295/75R22.5 (Load Range H) and willcontinue with the following sizes:

• 11R22.5 (Load Range H)• 11R24.5 (Load Range H)• 285/75R24.5 (Load Range H)The General HD, long haul drive tire, fea-

tures a deep 32/32nd closed shoulder treaddesign that offers high mileage and optimalfuel economy while also delivering tractionin demanding applications. The tread blockgeometry promotes stiffness in the footprintwhich reduces excess block movement lead-

ing to lower rolling resistance and improvedfuel economy. The groove bottom ejectionsystem reduces stone retention and casingpenetration leading to higher retreadability.

The launch of the new General HD tirebegan in April 2015 with the 11R22.5 (LoadRange G) and will continue with the follow-ing sizes:

• 295/75R22.5 (Load Range G)• 11R24.5 (Load Range G)• 285/75R24.5 (Load Range G)The General HT, long haul trailer, tire

delivers optimal removal mileage and flexi-bility through an improved tread pattern. Theimproved scuff rib protects the sidewallsfrom curbing and cutting therefore reducingdamage to the tire and increasing retread-ability. Additionally, this new tire has aninnovative stone repellent tread pattern with

groove technology that leads to minimumstone retention thereby extending casing life.Overall the robust solid shoulder GeneralHT, will deliver the performance necessaryand the flexibility needed for demandingapplications, according to the manufacturer.

The launch of the New General HT tirebegan in March 2015 with 295/75R22.5(Load Range G) and will continue with thefollowing sizes:

• 11R22.5 (Load Range G)• 255/70R22.5 (Load Range H)• 11R24.5 (Load Range G)• 285/75R24.5 (Load Range G)For more information, visit www.gener-

Minn.’s Virnig Manufacturing Grows From Humble RootsVirnig Manufacturing and Welding

has come a long way since its humblebeginning in 1989. Established in atwo-car garage, just outside of the citylimits of the rural community of Pierz,Minn., Dean and Lois Virnig startedVirnig Manufacturing and Welding.

The Virnigs business started withrepair work for local farmers and con-struction companies in CentralMinnesota. When it comes to superiorservice and quality work, word travelsfast in a small town, and the Virnigssaw their little business grow quickly.

Within five years of opening thedoors, Dean and Lois moved from theirmakeshift shop into a larger buildingand expanded into manufacturing skidloader attachments and dump trailers,subsequently changing their name toVirnig Manufacturing Inc.

High product demand and limitedspace warranted additions in 1994,1997 and 1999. Finally, the Virnigsdecided to build a state-of-the-art man-ufacturing facility in Rice, Minn., in2001.

In 2010, the Virnigs constructed anadditional facility across the parking lotto add more workspace. Finally, inspring 2015, the newest addition wasbuilt to accommodate a powder coatpaint system, new assembly space, andshipping area.

• 28,500 sq. ft. (2,647 sq m) additionjumped to a 73,000 sq. ft. (6,781.9 sqm) total

• Fully automated powder coat paintsystem with three stage wash

• From engineering and cutting rawmaterials to machining, welding andpainting the finished product, all stepsof the manufacturing process are donein-house.

Virnig has applied an innovative“self-guided workforce” model withworking leads responsible for each pro-

duction area. The employees in eacharea are responsible for meeting theirdaily goals set by the production sched-ule. To aid this organizational structure,Virnig is also implementing a kittingprocess supplying each employee withall the items required to complete thescheduled job at hand. Internal process-es and space usage are constantlyreviewed to find greater accuracy andefficiency within the manufacturingprocess. With such stringent qualitycontrol measures Virnig can offer aproduct warranty that few can match.

Each attachment is tied to a serialnumber and inventory control systemfrom start to finish. This allows config-uration of product options, while stillmaintaining accurate order fulfillment.Computer terminals are being imple-mented throughout the build areas foremployees to reference during the Internal expansions and optimization of existing space will be continuing over the near

future to establish the greatest efficiency in Virnig’s manufacturing process.

The paint system can handle up to 160 attachments perday with a track system that moves 5 ft. (1.5 m) perminute.

The rotary brush cutter — Standard deck cuts throughbrush up to three inches in diameter with ease, whilethree-blade design produces a superior finish.

The inventory storage area with many attachmentsready for shipping to more than 650 dealers world-wide.

High product demand and limited space warranted additions in 1994, 1997 and 1999.Finally, the Virnigs decided to build a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Rice,Minn., in 2001. Then, in 2010, the Virnigs constructed an additional facility right acrossthe parking lot from their new one to add more workspace.

Once a piece is washed, treated anddried it is electrostatically charged andblown with Virnig charcoal grey ultra-durable, UV-resistant paint powder.

Contaminated Soil Causes 15 Percent Budget Increasediation of contaminated soil within the stadium’s footprint;increased sub-contractor pricing due to a residential andmixed-use construction boom in the area; winter weatherdelays that resulted in overtime pay to an average of 250workers on site daily in order to meet deadlines; and newupgrades to the stadium not previously factored into thebudget, such as a guitar-shaped scoreboard that mimics theiconic scoreboard at Greer Stadium.

“When you have a fast-moving project with a fixed dead-line, more often than not, you encounter these types of budg-et challenges as you move from concept to construction,”Mayor Karl Dean told The Tennessean after a Metro SportsAuthority meeting.”

Fortunately, he added, Metro government has the funds tocover the additional expense in a way that does not impactother city programs and projects. He expects the economicactivity and development around the ballpark and the taxrevenues they will generate to make up for the additionalcosts.

Pay to PlayUnder the direction of general contractor Barton

Malow/Bell/Harmony, a joint venture LLC, and projectmanagers Gobbell Hays Partners Inc., and Capital ProjectSolutions Inc., construction of the new ballpark in downtownNashville, Tenn., began Jan. 27, 2014, near the proposedlocation of a new state museum.

Part of the ground on which it’s located is the former siteof the Sulphur Dell ballpark, a minor league ballpark usedfrom 1870 to the 1960s.

The new facility replaces the team’s former home atHerschel Greer stadium, wherethey played from 1978 to 2014.An earlier project to build a newfacility was abandoned in the early2000s due to the economy, buttalks for a new ballpark resumedin late 2013.

To make it happen, the citymade a deal to receive the state-owned property in exchange forpaying $18 million to the state forthe construction of a 1,000-carparking garage on site and $5 mil-lion for an underground parkinggarage near the proposed statelibrary and archives.

The Metro Council’s rapid deci-sion in December 2013 to issue$65 million in municipal bonds aspart of the financing plan sparkedcontention due to the speed withwhich the proposal was approved.Metro Finance Director RichRiebeling called the project’stimeline a “helter-skelter pace” butsaid they have a plan in place tocome up with funding.

That plan comprises both public and private funds, andincludes transferring $5 million in tax increment financingfrom the Metro Development and Housing Agency’sJackson Redevelopment District. In addition, $1.5 million isavailable in TIF reserve funds and $1 million will come fromthe stadium’s initial revenue bond sale, which exceeded

expected proceeds. Other revenue streams include:

$650,000 in sales tax generated by the sta-dium, $1.4 million in property tax revenuefrom two nearby private developmentsand an annual lease with the Sounds of$700,000, all of which combined shouldcover the city’s $4.3 million annual debt.

The Sounds owners, led by Frank Ward,contributed $2 million to cover the cost ofstadium upgrades and have invested $50million for a new mixed-use and retail

development that includes an apartment complex to anchorthe facility.

The city owns the stadium, which it has leased to the teamfor 30 years, and is expected to pay $345,000 for annualmaintenance of it.

Discovery Leads to DelayHeavy snow and ice contributed to scheduling delays and

budget over-runs. So did the discovery of a 900-year-oldNative American village in the area where left field is.Workers uncovered prehistoric artifacts dating back to 1150AD during early stages of construction. Archeologists con-firmed that fire pits and broken pieces of ceramic pans sig-nal the site of a Native American workshop where mineralwater from the underground sulphur springs was boiled tocollect salt, calling it a “significant salt manufacturing anddistribution center.”

The area is known to have been a major hub of mound-building peoples that could have had a population of tens ofthousands before French trappers established settlements.

The city paid for archeologists to excavate the disturbed

Kleemann’s MR 110 ZSi EVO 2 Represents Ongoing Evolution

Kleemann’s MR 110 ZSi EVO 2 impactcrusher is the slightly smaller version of theMR 130 ZSi EVO 2. EVO 2 represents thecontinuing evolution of the successful EVOContractor Line, with additional benefits interms of economy and operational safety.These new impact crushers are differentiatedby their size and productivity; the MR 110ZSi EVO 2 has a crusher inlet opening of43.3 in. (110 cm), and the MR 130 ZSi EVO2 a crusher inlet opening of 51 in. (130 cm).These provide feed capacities of up to 350 or450 tph (317 or 408 t), respectively.

The “S” indicates a Mobirex unit withoptional, highly productive secondaryvibrating screen with extra-large screeningsurface mounted on the discharge conveyor.This secondary screen unit can produce specmaterial, potentially eliminating the need fora separate screen.

Impact crushers are ideal for processingdemolition materials to spec, such as recy-cled concrete aggregate (RCA) andreclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP).

The feeding unit has hydraulically foldinghopper walls and locking system, whichspeeds setup. A vibrating double-deck pre-screen between hopper and crusher elimi-nates fines from the product flow before theyever enter the crusher, reducing wear andcutting fuel costs.

The new EVO 2 Mobirex mobile impactcrushers utilize direct drive crushers andelectric drives for the vibrating conveyors,belts and the prescreen. This permits highfuel efficiency and allows optimal loading ofthe crusher.

These crushers feature a new inlet geom-etry, which allows even better penetration ofthe material into the range of the rotor. Also,the wear behavior of the new C-form impactledges has been improved to such an extentthat the edges remain sharper longer, leadingto improved material shape. The rotor ledgesare held securely by a new and extremelyuser-friendly clamping system, which meansthat they can be changed even quicker, andthus contribute to greater plant uptime.

Outstanding performance is made pos-sible in part by the extremely efficientdirect drive, with which the machines areequipped. A latest-generation dieselengine transmits its power almost loss-freedirectly to the flywheel of the crusher, viaa robust fluid coupling and V-belts. Thisdrive concept enables enormous versatili-ty, as the rotor speed can be adjusted infour stages to suit different processingapplications.

The Kleemann continuous feed system(CFS) manages a more equal loading of thecrushing area, in which the conveying fre-

quencies of the feeder trough and the pre-screen are adapted independently of eachother to the level of the crusher, thus signifi-cantly boosting performance.

For the optional S version with secondaryscreen mounted, the oversize gradationreturn conveyor has been redesigned fromthe predecessor models, eliminating a verti-cal bend and integrating the transfer chute atthe feed hopper.

With these new Mobirex impact crushers,the fully hydraulic adjustment capability ofthe crushing gap permits greater plantuptime, while improving quality of endproduct, according to the manufacturer.

Not only can the crushing gap be com-pletely adjusted via the touchpanel electron-ic control unit, but the calculation of thezero-point is possible while the rotor is run-ning. This ability to accurately set the crush-er aprons from the control panel with auto-matic detection of zero point and target valuesetting saves time, and improves the overallefficiency and handling of the crusher.

In a Kleemann Mobirex impact crusher,zero point is the distance between the ledgesof the rotor and the impact plates of thelower impact toggle, plus a defined safetydistance. The desired crushing gap isapproached from this zero point.

While the upper impact toggle is adjusted

via simple hydraulic cylinders, the lowerimpact toggle has a hydraulic crushing gapadjustment device, which is secured elec-tronically and mechanically against collisionwith the rotor. The crushing gap is set via thetouch screen and approached hydraulically.Prior to setting of the crushing gap, the zeropoint is determined automatically.

For automatic zero-point determination,with the rotor running, the impact togglemoves slowly onto the rotor ledges until itmakes contact, which is detected by a sensor.The impact toggle is then retracted by thedefined safety distance. During this proce-dure, a stop ring slides on the piston rod.When the zero point is reached, the lockingchamber is locked hydraulically and the stopring is fixed in position. The stop ring nowserves as a mechanical detent for the pistonrod.

During the stop ring check, which is car-ried out for every crusher restart, the savedzero point is compared with the actual valuevia the electronic limit switch. If the valuedeviates, a zero-point determination is car-ried out once again.

Virnig Utilizes Automated, Custom-Built Paint Systemmanufacture process, which will also givethem the ability to review 3D models of thevarious attachments and configurations.These provide real time updates and productadjustments. With the major additions andstate of the art paint system Virnig is poisedfor continued growth.

Internal expansions and optimization ofexisting space will be continuing over thenear future to establish the greatest efficien-cy in Virnig’s manufacturing process.

The automated paint system was custom

built for Virnig Manufacturing and meets thespecific challenges and requirements Virnigwas looking for. Parts are hung on a tracksystem moving up to 5 f. (1.5 m) per minuteand start by going through a three stage washsystem that degreases, chemically treatsagainst corrosion, and seals the metal. Partsthen travel through a drying oven set at 200degrees for 15 minutes.

The dry part next enters an environmen-tally controlled paint room where tempera-ture and humidity are regulated to ensurethere is no variation in the paint applicationprocess. The powder paint is electrostatical-

ly charged to ensure an even coat of VirnigCharcoal Grey ultra-durable, UV resistantpowder. The paint bay itself is can handleparts up to 8 ft. (2.4 m) high, 4 ft. (1.2 m)wide by 10 ft. (3 m) long. This can accom-modate larger attachments or custom ordercontracted products from other manufactur-ers. After being coated with powder the partsare baked in a large oven at 400 degreesfahrenheit for 45 minutes. The bakingprocess causes the powder to melt and bondto the parts. After a 1 hour cool down periodthe parts are fully cured allowing rapidassembly and shipping. The entire trip

through the system takes 2 hours and 45minutes and allows for growth of more thanfour times current levels.

Product quality is the number one priorityat Virnig, according to Dean Virnig, presi-dent of Virnig.

“The quality of the products matches thequality of the company. We value our cus-tomers, value our people and value our prod-ucts,” said Virnig.

Virnig built a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Rice, Minn., in 2001 and an additionalfacility across the parking lot in 2010. The addition newest addition completed in spring 2015brings the total square footage to 73,000.

Inventory and materials control have been optimized to cut downon waste and mistakes. This is the parts and materials receivingand storage area.

Established in a two-car garage, just outside of the citylimits of the rural community of Pierz, Minn., Dean andLois Virnig started Virnig Manufacturing and Welding.

The three stage paint system, wash, dry and chemicalpretreat before powder coat paint applied. This state-of-the-art paint system reclaims 98 percent of allapplied powder coat paint.

Brokk Inc. releases the TC120 Tank Cutterattachment. Manufactured by their sistercompany, Darda, this attachment deliversmaximum cutting control and ultimate versa-tility for continuous steel cutting abilities.

The 47-by-17-in. (119 by 43 cm) TC120tank cutter can be used with the Brokk 160,260 and 400 models. The TC120 bringsflexibility to the job site with its hydraulicrotation capabilities and 5 in. (12.7 cm)wide jaws. It exerts 75 tons (68 t) of cuttingforce at 7,250 psi to easily cut through .5 in.(1.3 cm) thick steel plate.

Although this attachment can be used ina variety of applications, such as in salvageyards and balers, it’s commonly employedfor cutting steel tanks, pipes and vessels.

The most common method of cuttingsteel, an open-flame torch, poses a fire haz-ard when cutting into flammable tanks andvessels, and it can raise the risk of exposureto harmful emissions. By using the electricBrokk machine with the TC120 instead,operators reduce the risk of exposure totoxic emissions as well as prevent fires.

“This revolutionary product defines ver-satility. It combines power, efficiency and,above all, safety,” said Mike Martin, BrokkInc.’s vice president of operations. “Safetyis vital. When cutting tanks, you neverknow what you’ll run into. You don’t haveto worry about that with the Brokkmachine and TC120 combination. Since

it’s electric, you reduce the risk that comeswith cutting into potentially flammable tanks.”

In addition to heightened safety, theTC120 improves productivity by continu-ously cutting steel.

“For the first time in the industry, there’sa safe, easy, high-productivity option forcutting steel,” Martin said. “Combining theBrokk machine with the TC120 attachmentis like powering a giant scissors — it slicesthrough steel like a scissor to paper.”

The TC120 attachment also benefitscontractors with its extended reach. Brokkmachines’ remote capabilities, coupledwith arms that extend as far as 27 ft. (8.2m), easily reach places others can’t,improving efficiency while minimizinglabor costs. Because it’s attached to aBrokk machine, it reduces the risk of injuryto laborers by eliminating the need to climbscaffolds and ladders with torches to get tohard-to-reach spaces.

The TC120 is one of many Brokkattachments that can be quickly inter-changed for greater versatility on a job site.Brokk Inc. supplies a wide range ofremote-controlled machinery and attach-ments, maximizing productivity, improv-ing efficiency and promoting safety.

Brokk Introduces TC120Tank Cutter Attachment

The TC120 provides great flexibility withits hydraulic rotation capabilities and 5 in.(12.7 cm) wide jaws. It exerts 75 tons (68t) of cutting force at 7,250 psi to easily cutthrough .5 in. (1.3 cm) thick steel plate.

Doosan Expands With Clamps Doosan has expanded the versatility of its

excavators with the addition of eight main pinclamps and seven pro-link wedge lockclamps that are compatible with wedge lockattachments. The new Doosan clamp attach-ments are compatible with the wedge lockbuckets and quick couplers, and give moreflexibility to operators who use the wedgelock couplers.

The new Doosan clamp attachments workwith multiple bucket widths ranging from 24to 60 in. (61 to 152 cm), depending on theclamp type, to help maintain the load whenoperating Doosan DX63-3 to DX255LC-5excavators.

The hydraulic and pro-link wedge lockclamps have the same characteristics as thenon-wedge lock style clamp, enabling precisemovement and positioning. When not in use,the clamps retract, making the attachmentsexcellent for demolition, site preparation andland-clearing applications.

Additional Seating Consists of Areasfor Reserved Groups, Field-Level Suitesarea at Sulphur Dell to document and salvage artifacts beforethe site was covered as part of construction. Because nohuman remains were found and because the property isowned by the city, there was no legal obligation to permitmore extensive digging, although archaeologist and MTSUProfessor Kevin Smith, whose team worked on the stadiumsite project, said he would have loved to have had more timeto study the site. He also is pleased that the artifacts will goon permanent display in the Tennessee State Museum’sMississippian Period exhibit in August 2015.

A group of Native Americans and preservationists askedthe city to delay construction for a year to allow for furtherstudy. Smith explained that excavation of a site this big couldtake decades, and that processing and analysis could takeadditional decades, along with substantial funding that is notavailable.

Park and WalkAs the deadline approached, the stadium remained a con-

struction zone. Parts of the grounds will continue to be underconstruction long after the first pitch. The parking garagewon’t even be finished this season. Anticipated completiondate is Oct. 31.

Because the city failed to complete construction of the1,000-space $18 million underground parking garage atFifth Avenue North and Harrison Street, the mayor’s officehas unveiled a temporary parking lot that will rely on offsiteparking, free shuttles and city buses to get fans to and fromthe stadium.

Nevertheless, Mayor Dean does not expect parking issuesto impact attendance. He has not said whether the Sounds orthe city is paying for the shuttles.

Other projects surrounding the 10,000-seat stadium alsowill be under construction this year, such as the 306-unitluxury apartment building north of the stadium next toBicentennial Park and the planned $60 million mixed-useresidential project Ward hopes to build beyond left field.

Play BallBut the stadium itself is ready for baseball season. To

ensure an optimal playing field, 100,000 sq. ft. (9,290 sq m)of Tiffany Bermuda Grass sod from Texas was laid and thenover-seeded with 1,000 lbs. (453 kg) of perennial rye grass.

A larger, more modern version of Greer Stadium’s popu-lar guitar-shaped scoreboard was built beyond the right-cen-ter field wall. Designed by Panasonic Eco Solutions NorthAmerican and installed by TS Sports, it features a 4,200 sq.ft. (390 sq m) high-definition LED screen. The scoreboardmeasures 138 by 68 ft. (42 by 20 m) and is capable of dis-playing colorful graphics and animation, as well as score,field positions, player statistics and photos.

The scoreboard will hold two of the main speakers in thesound system that was installed by Clair Solutions, who alsoinstalled fiber cabling for the stadium’s CATV system. Thesystem was designed to enable speakers to be preciselypointed, not only to provide better sound quality within thestadium, but also to divert noise away from nearby residentsin Sulphur Dell.

With 8,500 fixed seats, a grass berm beyond the left-cen-ter field wall that provides enough room for 1,500 spectators,the stadium can accommodate 10,000 fans. The lower levelof seating extends from one foul pole to the other and isdivided into 24 sections. The upper level has 13 sectionsbetween first and third base. Seats are traditional stadium-style chairs; some seats near the dugouts and all second-levelseats have padded cushions.

Additional seating consists of areas reserved for groups,such as four field-level suites, each of which can accommo-date up to 40 people, with accompanying seats behind homeplate. There are 18 suites on the second level with outdoorseating and a covered party deck on each end.

Designed by Hastings Architecture Associates LLC, thestadium includes several concession stands around the con-course. In addition, a bar and lounge is located on the upperlevel and The Band Box, a 4,000 sq. ft. (371 sq m) outdoorrestaurant, is situated in the right field concourse area.

Location to Serve as Possible Model for Other Locations ning stage for quite some time, culminating in the finalmove.

“It was a long four-week process. Not necessarily fromthe standpoint of simply relocating the parts, but with com-puter changes and parts ‘tagging’ and combining. Some ofthe parts were actually stored in one place and on the data-base as being in both facilities.”

Clenny said the setup is more efficient. “Not only did we gain three more shop bays in the power

systems facility, we are finding the parts consolidation to bemuch more cost effective. It was a pretty simple decision thatjust made sense. We had the extra space in the parts depart-ment in the earth moving facility and we needed more spacein the Power Systems facility. The area where the parts usedto be stored in the Power Systems facility already had accessto an overhead crane system. The whole process made forsome long days. We actually got much more accomplishedafter hours as we all still had our regular jobs to accomplishduring the business day.”

Clenny is responsible for the parts operations at theSavannah and Statesboro, Ga., locations. She said that theentire staff has pitched in at the Savannah location during theconsolidation process. The company now has two in-houseparts reps that are trained on construction equipment and twothat are trained on power systems working together in theparts department.

Savannah is the first store to consolidate the parts opera-tions, and will be closely monitored as a possible model forother locations.

“We finished this consolidation less than a week ago andmany customers are already commented that they like thenew system,” said Clenny.

“We’ve always done a good job in our parts operations,

but now it is definitely more organized than ever before inSavannah. There is still more work to be done in perfecting,organizing and grouping Blue Bird bus and Cat parts togeth-er in one centralized location for maximum efficiency.”

Darin Moxley, general parts manager of all divisions, saidparts operation was structured differently in the past.

“Yancey Power Systems was originally called SunbeltPower when it was established many years ago. It was pri-marily set up for distribution and support for Caterpillar’spower generation products. Cat then entered the on-highwaybusiness, which then became a part of the portfolio for

Yancey gained an additional three service bays by consolidating all parts in the earthmoving building.

Yancey Bros. Co. Looks to Simplify, Consolidate Parts, Provide SpaceSunbelt Power with support of the CAT engine business.This eventually became Yancey Power Systems. In the past,Power Systems and Yancey’s machine division ran virtuallyas two different companies. As we move into a new phase ofthe company, we’re looking to simplify and consolidate theon-highway Power Systems operation with the machineoperations in locations where it just makes sense, but notnecessarily in every city we’re in. In places that we’re ableto consolidate parts and have the space and the resources todo so, we would like to provide a complete parts experiencefor our customer that would include anything from machineand off-highway parts to anything pertaining to power gen-eration and on-highway parts for trucks and buses.

“The parts team here [Savannah] has spent a lot of hoursover the last month working on completely moving and con-solidating parts into one operation. I want to emphasize acouple points. We still have specialization of our parts count-er staff that are highly experienced and focused on off-high-way machine parts, and then we have counter staff memberswho are experienced and specialized on the on-highwayproducts. We’re not trying to cross train everyone on every-thing, but they can work together and learn from each otherand provide a better experience when the customer comes in.This will have more people on the parts counter that are

cross-training and educating each other just by working side-by-side.

“We’ve been in the on-highway business for quite a num-ber of years. I feel that in some areas we serve, we may nothave done a great job of completely connecting with our off-highway customers. Many may not know of our capabilitiesand our expertise in what we can do for them for their on-highway products. We can provide parts and full service forjust about any type of vehicle that they have whether it’s onor off road. The unique thing in what we’re doing here is thatthis is the first time that we’ve had one parts department thatcan do all of this for one customer in one place.”

Savannah is a one stop parts shop and can provide partsfor the smallest piece of compact equipment to light andmedium duty trucks and even parts for automotive applica-tions to on-highway heavy class 8 trucks to school buses.

The Yancey Bros. Co. location in Savannah is made up ofthree buildings: one for earthmoving sales and service and allparts operations; one for hydraulic service; and one for thePower Systems division (bus, truck and generator).

GPS Provides Position Updates of Grading Blade

Additionally, Keene points out that tradi-tionally if they would have needed to stopproduction to redesign and re-issue the siteplan that it would have delayed productionanywhere from a couple of days to a week ormore.

Keene estimates that several hours a daywere saved, which equals money saved byusing GPS machine control. The technologyis designed to provide position updates of thegrading blade up to 100 times per second. Itcombines a gyro, compass and inertial sen-sor to measure the X, Y and Z position aswell as the roll, pitch, yaw and accelerationof the dozer.

The Topcon grade control system putsdesign surfaces, grades and alignmentsinside the machine cab and is designed toaccurately position the dozer blade in realtime.

After the clay liner, a 2.4 in. (60 mm)thick High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)

sheet is laid from 500-ft. (152 m) rolls beforea protective cover-material surface is placed.The 24-in. (61 cm) layer of leachate collec-tion stone is the last layer before the garbagebags of pizza crusts, coffee grounds, meatwrappers and other household waste beginfilling up the cell.

Reflecting on the project, Keene said thatthe owner, Waste Industries, was veryimpressed with the quality of the work andhow quickly it was completed.

“We had approximately 180 days to com-plete this engineered project and we werefinished in 150 days. This helped the ownerconsiderably since they could apply for statecertification to use the cell sooner than antic-ipated.”

So, what will be remembered most aboutthis project?

“A big challenge was placing the lifts ofclay, said Keene. “The material required a lotof conditioning to get the proper moisturecontent to meet the compaction curve. The

more moisture you havein that material, the harderit is to compact. It’s a bitof a tightrope walk.

“The Topcon systemhelped immensely.Imagine without it havingto grade almost sevenacres and laying six inchesdown on it, putting stakesin the ground to show thatsix-inch layer, and then toshow where the next six-inch layer is, and keepbuilding up like that.Where it helped is that we didn’t have towaste time setting stakes. We could gradeexactly a six-inch layer at a time.“

With the completion of the new cell at theWaste Industries’ Lakeway Sanitation &Recycling Landfill, Keene said he is proudof the project.

“Our 14-worker crew and I can be proud

of our work there. We saved the owner timeand money, and made money for our com-pany. It makes me proud of our people whenthe landfill manager says, ‘we really appre-ciate you guys pushing to get the job finished— great job team!’”

Fake City for Driverless Cars CouldChange Entire Construction IndustryBy Lori TobiasCEG CORRESPONDENT

For several months, backhoe, dumptruck, grader and other heavy equip-ment operators worked to transform 32acres at the University of Michiganinto what will eventually look like atypical little city. Nothing unusualabout that.

“This called for extremely conven-tional techniques,” said David R.Lampe, executive director, strategiccommunications, University ofMichigan Office of Research. “Asphaltroads were constructed the way asphaltroads are constructed. We landscapedso it would have the appropriateamount of straightaways and hills.What’s unusual is not its construction,but what it is being used for.”

And that’s something that one daymay impact everything we know abouturban living, including the way weoperate construction equipment. Themini-city at the Ann Arbor campus,dubbed M City, is being designed totest connected and automated vehiclesystems — that is, driverless cars thatcan “communicate” with each otherand via the city infrastructure.

“Certainly this will change the urbanenvironment and urban planning,”Lampe said. “How you think of layingout a city. I think maybe the tools thatmake it may be in for the samechanges. It can change the way a cityworks. There’s a whole trend towardbetter sensing and better automation,and it could well affect the construction

M City’s roads are already in place — and work is beginning on the fakebuildings and other areas before it opens in June.

see M CITY page 78“Mechatronic pedestrians” whooccasionally pop out into trafficwill test whether sensors and auto-matic brakes can react in time toavoid running down a real person.

What’s unusual is not itsconstruction, but what itis being used for.”

More than 41 companies fromaround the world, including Hitachi,have signed on with the University todevelop the program. The goal is by2021 to have a working system of con-nected and automated vehicles that iscommercially viable.

Sounds futuristic? It is. “It won’t look futuristic, but the

transportation is super futuristic,”Lampe said. “First, we build this city. Ithas everything, park benches, fourlanes, two lanes, single lanes, 13 inter-sections, fire hydrants, store fronts, traf-fic lights, bus facilities, streetlights,parked cars and pedestrians. You cando things like change the traffic signals,have pedestrians step out in front ofcars. It’s controlled systems without thedanger. Autonomous vehicles carry allthe sensing and decision making equip-ment on the car itself. In M City, youwill be able to leave the driver out andtest it because that way it is safe. Thecar can only respond to what it sees. Ifit is snowing, it can’t see. If there is abuilding between you and another car,it can’t see it. With the connected sys-tem, if there is something you need toknow, your car will know by speakingto each other through infrastructure.”

Outside of M City, there are current-ly about 3,000 cars on the road com-municating with each other in AnnArbor. None, of course, are automated.

“We’re going to expand to 20,000cars all across southeast Michigan,”Lampe said. “It does allow you to testwarning the systems. It can warn thedriver that there is ice two miles downthe road. Warn the driver that someoneis passing too closely. Some of thesethings are being implemented in cars.The connectedness allows you to seebeyond what you can see yourself.”

M City costs about $6.5 million tobuild. When the project is complete, itis expected to cost about $100 million.There’s little doubt that the new systemof transportation is coming, Lampesaid. The National Highway TrafficSafety Administration has recentlyruled that it will come up with regula-tions governing how such a systemwould work.

But there are many challenges to beovercome first.

“Our goal is to figure out how toaccelerate progress,” Lampe said. “Thebarriers to success include cyber secu-rity, massive data management chal-lenges, the whole business of liability,regulations. There is the whole busi-ness of social acceptance. We’re work-ing on all aspects.

“If you do this right, you can reduce

traffic accidents by as much as 80 per-cent, fuel consumption by as much as80 percent and pollution by as much as80 percent. It changes the whole notionof car ownership.”

M CITY from page 74

M City starts running on July 20, and the $6.5 million facility will be out-fitted with 40 building facades, angled intersections, a traffic circle, abridge, a tunnel, gravel roads, and plenty of obstructed views.

M City even features a roundabout to better replicate driving in Europe.

“Our goal is to figure out how to accelerateprogress. The barriers to success include cybersecurity, massive data management challenges,the whole business of liability, regulations.”

“I’m proud of the high-qualityequipment we sell,” said Garrity.“ALL is committed to keeping theirfleet up-to-date and in perfect condi-tion, and to offering a rigorous trainingprogram for their crane professionals.”

Garrity also is a certified Level 2user for 3D Lift Plan, the lift planningsoftware ALL uses to map out everydetail of a job prior to commencementof work. This complex programrequires hours of training, a dedicatedskill set and deep understanding of thelogistics of lift planning and execution,which translate directly to his ability to

recommend the right cranes for hiscustomers.

conditions and urge Washington to act.

"The construction industry has clearly hit a soft patch,"

said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association's chief executive

officer. "Passing needed infrastructure measures will certain-

Powerscreen Mid-Atlantic Provides Premiertrak R400 Jaw Crusher

Atlantic’s sales manager, the jaw crusher reduces the oldasphalt and concrete into a minus 6-in. (15.24 cm) product,then the impactor turns it into a minus 2-in. (5.08 cm) stoneand the screen removes the oversize.

The finished product that comes from using thePowerscreen equipment is then sold to a variety of differentcompanies and individuals, Michael Armstrong said.

“For instance, a lot of it goes to trucking companies thatwill re-market it, and logging companies will use it to maketemporary logging roads,” he said. “Also, landfills use it tobuild access in and out of their dumps during wet weatherand a lot of asphalt is recycled for use in long, rural drive-ways.”

He went on to say that the Premiertrak R400 employs amagnetic belt that separates rebar wire from old concrete thatcan then be sent to scrap yards for recycling, thereby keep-ing it out of the landfills, too.

Armstrong has been very happy about the service he hasreceived from Powerscreen Mid-Atlantic over the last fiveyears.

“Both Ian and our local salesman, Jeff Hunter, have beenwith us whenever we have needed them,” he said. “If weneed help, it just takes one phone call to Ian because he hasthe solution. We looked at a lot of machines and we know wemade the right decision to go with Powerscreen. It is an out-standing product and they stand behind it 100 percent.”

Armstrong Contractors got started in the crushing busi-ness in 2010 when the company contacted PowerscreenMid-Atlantic about renting a crusher for work at a projectthat involved removing an old shopping center.

An agreement was worked out between ArmstrongContractors and its client stipulating that all of the on-sitematerial that was recyclable would be reused on the project.To that end, Armstrong rented a Powerscreen impact crush-er and screener in order to recycle all the footings, concreteslabs and other material for reuse on the parking areas andunderground retention ponds.

More equipment rentals followed, Michael Armstrongsaid, and before long, the Armstrong brothers were com-pletely sold on using Powerscreen equipment and, subse-

quently, their recycling business took off.“We are much more committed to the crusher business,

pursuing it not only with our construction operations, butalso doing strictly crushing jobs if we need to,” he added.

In order to increase production, Michael Armstrong said,the company decided late last year to upgrade to a larger,R400-size machine.

“We found that as fast as we can make this material wecan sell it and if not, we can use it for our own projects,” hesaid. “We are also looking at possibly crushing brick andother material to make decorative landscaping products.”

A Team EffortMichael Armstrong said that he and his brothers work

very well together and each brings a specific talent to thesuccessful operation of Armstrong Contractors.

What have been the keys to their rapid growth over thelast several years?

“For one, we have held firm in not taking on cheap work,”he said. “And, of course, the other factor has been our ven-ture into recycling. I really feel that if we had not savedmoney with the recycling operation it would have cost thiscompany so much more and we would not have become ascommercial as we are today.”

Thomas Armstrong added he was very proud of the factthat, “the amount of material that we keep from going into alandfill is substantial. Our machines are capable of crankingout 1,800 to 2,000 tons per day, five days a week, so we areturning out a lot of reusable product rather than having it gostraight into the ground.”

Serving as vice president of Armstrong Contractors isRobert Armstrong, who is instrumental in making decisionson equipment purchases. He said that all three brothers real-ized years ago that recycling would be critical to their com-pany’s continued viability.

“In addition, recycled product like this is the biggest valuewe can give a general contractor or property owner on a proj-ect,” he said.

Armstrong Contractors recently purchased Powerscreen equipment that allows it to run a portable crushingoperation.

California State University-Chico, Boise State Universityand Oregon Institute of Technology are home to the nation’stop collegiate construction associations this year, accordingto an analysis of award applications conducted by theAssociated General Contractors of America. As a result, thethree student groups each received the association’sOutstanding Student Chapter award.

“These chapters completed projects that will help peopleand improve communities, and in the process they gainednew skills and experience that will strengthen our industryfor years to come,” said Chuck Greco, the association’s pres-ident and chairman of Houston, Texas-based Linbeck Group.“These students represent the next generation of constructionindustry leaders, and based on their accomplishments thefuture looks very promising.”

Greco noted that the California State University, ChicoAGC Student Chapter was selected as the top student group,largely for its work building the “Ann and Emmett SkinnerTransitional Living Center” for the Salvation Army. Theproject required vigorous design, pre-planning coordinationand pre-construction to complete the build in the 10 days thechapter allotted. In just eight days, the team was able to buildtwo 1,600 square-foot duplex units each with four units thathad two bedrooms and one bathroom. Due to their accom-plishments, the student chapter received $1,500 from thenational association to help finance their operations.

Boise State University Construction ManagementAssociation was selected as the second-best student groupdue to its work reconstructing the guard tower that once satat the entrance to the Minidoka National Monument nearJerome, Idaho. The student chapter brought together manylocal organizations to reconstruct the tower as historicallyaccurate as possible using all available historic photos. As aresult, the group was awarded $750 from the association.

Oregon Institute of Technology, AGC Student Chapterwas named the nation’s third-best student construction groupfor its work designing and building three greenhouses forKlamath Tribal Health and Family Services. The purpose ofthis project was to assist in a USDA-funded research projectto determine whether a greenhouse maintained within a com-munity would produce more crops than a greenhouse main-tained by an individual. The association provided the chapterwith $400.

A panel of six judges representing a cross-section of theconstruction industry evaluated the applications for thisyear’s Student Chapter Awards contest. School groups wererated based on their accomplishments during the 2013-2014school year. There are approximately 200 university-levelstudent construction groups nationwide.

“Three main forces are supporting cementand ready-mix prices in this environment,”said IHS economist Charlie McCarren.“First, the demand environment is improv-ing, even if not all end markets are steadilyprogressing. Second, since the recession, thecement industry has become more concen-trated, improving the remaining cementmanufacturers’ leverage over pricing. Andfinally, a wave of potentially costly CAPEXinvestments will likely hit the cement indus-try this year as it struggles to comply with the2010 National Emissions Standards forHazardous Air Pollutants [NESHAP]; thecurrent pricing environment likely reflectsthe industry’s attempt to co-opt clients intosharing part of the costs.”

The current subcontractor labor indexeased further to 48.7 in March, down from49.0 in February to its softest reading sinceJanuary 2012. Nearly all regions registeredflat labor costs, with eastern Canada as theonly exception posting a slight easing. Forthe second month in a row, the southernUnited States did not register higher month

on month labor costs. Nevertheless, tight-ness in skilled labor markets was still report-ed in the Gulf Coast.

The six month headline expectationsindex dropped to 45.9 in March, a recordlow following the 48.7 reading in February.For just a third time in survey history, the for-ward looking index implies falling priceexpectations over the six month horizon andis another sign of the weakness in currentmarket conditions.

I called 6 companies to get prices and availability for tracks for a TB125. I do business with the company that gives me the best customer service. Mr. Darryl Race has great customer service skills. He answered every question I had without any hesitation and very pleasant to do business with. So for that fact I choose your company to order from. More companies should have such great customer service.

Customer Testimonial First, thank you so much for your years of providing great service. Your professionalism surpasses most in your market. I had a machine down, Morooka (out of town job) ,due to a track being split in half. I called you and you quoted me a track based upon # of links and width. You replied within minutes to my request, not even the dealer could match your service and knowledge as well. You promised me a delivery date, I got the tracks the morning promised, we scheduled a mechanic to come and install and we are up and running with minimal downtime! You turned a painful Thursday morning phone call of distress from my superintendent on the job to the machine back up and running within 3 days, including freight time…OUTSTANDING. You have always supplied me the correct track (which is more than a notion), and second to none customer service. Your team you have built around is to be highly commended as well. This past purchase for our Morooka made me look good to my boss as they had never used you in the past and will continue to purchase from you in the future…I wanted to take the time to say thank you and job well done! Look forward to future business with you and your company.

Customer Testimonial We chose VTS track because we need the flexibility that they offer. Being able to switch from track to tire quickly to meet job requirements was essential for our business. However, parts could be difficult to find, until we started working with Summit Supply. They have a great inventory, staff is knowledgeable, professional, prompt and dedicated to keeping you moving. We do some jobs that have a very small window for completion. I ordered parts late on Friday and had them by 11:00 a.m. the next morning and we normally don’t get UPS on Saturdays. Basically, they said I’d have them and they arrived on time. - Thank you for the support Summit.

USED TRACKSLOEGERING VERSATILE TRACK SYSTEM (VTS)

Convert your wheeled skidsteer into a tracked machine with a Loegering Versatile Track System (VTS)!

The patented VTS torsion hub provides both independent and bi-directional suspension.

The Loegering VTS is equipped with steel Bogey wheels, Idler wheels and Tension Rollers which are engineered to minimize de-tracking.

The chassis on VTS is adjustable to fit many makes and models of skid steers (currently over 100). The chassis should be in the proper configuration for your skid steer at the time of purchase and only need adjustment in the event that you need to put your VTS on a different machine.

Given that the machines are compatible (similar wheelbase and horsepower) you can take the Loegering VTS off your current machine, reconfigure and bolt on to your new machine. • Fully sealed bearings for minimal maintenance.• Operates with 2-speed machines.• Improved ride and traction with propriety multi-fit design.• Independent bi-directional torsion suspension • Improved operator comfort and increased traction. • Adjustable components designed to fit wheelbases from 35 – 55 inches.

Used Systems Available, Parts in Stock!

Customer Testimonial“I called a few companies looking for a VTS system, and they either didn’t know what I was talking about, or they didn’t have any in stock. One call to Summit and within a few days, I was back in business. Give them a call if you’re in the market, and I’m sure they can help you out!!!”
