Erb Equipment Lends a Handin Train Collision CleanupOn May 25 at 2:20 a.m. a train collision
involving a Burlington Northern Santa Fetrain and a Union Pacific train occurred inScott County near CapeGirardeau, Mo. The trains collided and
hit a pillar for the Route Moverpass, causing the over-pass to collapse and injur-ing seven people. Later that day Mitch
Herdon, sales representa-tive of Erb EquipmentCompany received aphone call from RyanKeck of R.J.CormanDerailment Service, asking if ErbEquipment could come up with an excavatorshear package to send to the job site on anemergency basis. Erb Equipment rented the customer a
John Deere 600CLC (132,000 lb. [59,874kg] excavator) with a Genesis GXP1200R(26,300 lb. [11,929 kg] shear with a jawforce of 2,470 tons [2,241 t]). The equipment was shipped, delivered
and working on site by 4:00 a.m. the nextmorning. The shear was used to remove 24ft. (7.3 m) I beams from the bridge deck and
also was used toremove and shearrail cars, pickuptrucks that werebeing shipped onthe trains. The job was
completed by endof the week onMay 31. The com-pletion of the jobwas in part due tothe performance of
the excavator/shear package. Spritas Wrecking supplied the operator
for the John Deere 600CLC because he hadexperience with operating a large Genesisshear. They own a Genesis GXP990R.Ahrens Contracting was on site doing workas well, according to Herdon.

Demo Contractors Ask for Bigger Role in Disaster ResponseDemolition contractors can
strengthen government’s responseto natural and man-made disastersby getting highly involved duringthe planning stages for emergen-cies, not after the tragedies occur,said Jeff Kroeker, president of theNational Demolition Associationat its annual convention in SanDiego this spring.Kroeker’s comments followed a
compelling presentation by threedemolition professionals who wereat ground zero in Christchurch,New Zealand, following a magni-tude-6.3 quake in 2011. SinceChristchurch is the country’s sec-ond largest metropolitan area, theexperiences of the demolitionexperts and the city’s leadershipcan provide valuable lessons toothers responsible for emergencymanagement, especially in earth-quake-prone areas.John Weber, former president of
Iconco/LVI Demolition Services inOakland, Calif. — who travelled toChristchurch to handle the disasterresponse — described the“immense and widespread” dam-age the quake did to the large city.Mark Loizeaux, president ofControlled Demolition Inc., one ofthe world’s leading implosion con-tractors, explained how govern-ment entities should remove dan-gerous buildings by whatevermeans is in the public interest topromote both worker and publicsafety. Peter Ward, president ofWard Demolition Ltd. headquar-tered in Auckland, NZ, focused onhow conventional demolitionmeans were used to take down sev-eral damaged structures, includinga 26-story hotel.The presentation showed the
damage of the city, comparing thedamage to other quakes and earth-quake zones here in the UnitedStates, including greater LosAngeles, the San Francisco Bayarea, and potentially even Seattle. The National Demolition
Association is intent on alertingcommunities in the United Statesthat may be unprepared for aChristchurch-like event, said
Michael R. Taylor executive direc-tor of the association. To this end,the association has formed a disas-ter response committee, which hasprepared a disaster response man-power and equipment survey forlocal and state governments to useto help them prepare in advance tohelp save lives, facilitate fasterresponse, and avoid the conse-quences of delayed decision mak-ing. The survey is available on theassociation Web site in its new dis-aster response section.“The U.S. Geological Survey,
the science organization of the U.S.government, has predicted with a99 percent certainty that there willbe a similar magnitude earthquakein California in the next 30 years,”said Taylor. “Our committee,including those experts who havebeen working in Christchurch for
the last two years dealing witheverything from downed utilities,lack of food, housing, and power,hazardous materials disposal, andthe safe demolition of damagedstructures can share some invalu-able lessons with other communi-ties needing assistance with disas-ter planning.” The National Demolition
Association Web site also hasmade available for public viewingthe convincing video produced byWard Demolition Co. showing thedamage of the earthquake, as wellas the presentation he made at theconvention.For more information, visit

“We developed SiteWatch to empower ourcustomers, especially small- to mid-sizeoperations that may not be as familiar withthe technology,” said Jim Hasler, vice presi-dent, Case Construction-North America.
For example, currently Case is the onlyOEM with a dedicated telematics customercall center.
“Knowledge is power,” said Hasler.“SiteWatch provides critical data that ourcustomers and their dealers can analyze tomaximize machine utilization. SiteWatchempowers our customers to increase produc-tivity, efficiency, and ultimately, profitabili-
ty.”SiteWatch proactively keeps users and
their dealers informed with performancemetrics, idle-time analytics, scheduled main-tenance intervals, machine health reportingand programmable security alerts. This infor-mation allows customers and dealers to iden-tify machine performance trends, operatorefficiencies and training requirements.
“We look at SiteWatch as an essential busi-ness tool for today’s operations,” said BradStemper, solutions marketing manager, CaseConstruction. “SiteWatch comes pre-pro-grammed to monitor up to 12 parameters,many of which are customizable, so the out-put can be as simple or comprehensive as ourcustomers need, and this information allowsthem to make immediate decisions toimprove costs, lower fuel consumption andcomplete scheduled maintenance. SiteWatchalso can tell customers which machines areready for deployment, allowing them to max-imize productivity and fleet utilization.”
According to Stemper, another key busi-ness purpose for SiteWatch is accurate, fastjob costing. Rather than spending time call-ing operators to get machine hours,SiteWatch keeps track of machine usage andrun-time on a daily or monthly basis.Customers can quickly pull up a detailed,
precise picture of their fleets’ capabilities, andpotentially offset rental cost.
SiteWatch also can help conserve fuel andbattery life through various power manage-ment settings including hibernate, sleep andstandby modes. It can protect a customer’sfleet in a number of ways including curfew,geofencing and motion detection even whenthe machine is turned off. If a machine doesleave the premises, SiteWatch aids in track-ing and recovery, helping to significantlyreduce theft-related costs.
Customers can choose between a basicand advanced SiteWatch subscription,depending on how much information isneeded and how often.
SiteWatch currently is standard equipmenton the F Series wheel loaders, and includes astandard three-year advanced subscriptionplan. Case will continue to roll out SiteWatchas standard equipment on select heavymachines throughout 2013. It’s also availableas a factory option on select machines or as adealer-installed accessory on virtually anyself-powered piece of equipment.

All three men were wounded byIED blasts while serving in either Iraq orAfghanistan. The soldiers were flown to Minneapolis
and then flew approximately 375 mi. northaboard a private flight to Warroad, Minn.Upon arrival, they visited the WarroadVeteran’s Memorial and then traveled toSage’s Angle West Resort, owned by Sage’sparents, Brian and Jane. That evening they
were treated to a steak din-ner by their hosts, the Sagefamily and Gessell. Brightand early the next morning,they were aboard boats andfishing Lake of the Woods. The three soldiers
enjoyed two full days offishing in somewhat chillyconditions. They caught pri-marily walleye, but alsosmallmouth bass, perch and northern pike.They were treated to special shore lunchesand home cooked meals.Nortrax sponsored the trip by providing
all travel and food expenses. The Sage fam-ily provided the cabin accommodations,boats and bait.“It was an honor to put on this special

With the convenience of its customers inmind, New Holland, a division of CNHGlobal N.V., has announced the consolida-tion of New Holland Construction’s market-ing functions with New HollandAgriculture’s “Pro Work Tools” segmentgrouping in North America.“The name Pro Work Tools reflects the
fact that New Holland dealers sell profes-sional-grade equipment to customers whodepend on it for their livelihood, and thatNew Holland dealers are true professionalsin their approach to customer service, partsand sales support,” said Dan Valen, ProWork Tools marketing segment leader.The newly formed marketing group con-
sists of farmers, landscapers, municipalities,construction companies and grounds main-tenance contractors, along with any otherwork-related users of tractors or light con-struction equipment. This move was strate-gically planned to allow this group the bene-fit of one-stop shopping for equipment com-mon to both the construction and agricultureindustries. New Holland’s research has
shown that the customers who fell within theset designations of the Pro Work Toolsgrouping significantly relied on productsfrom both of their brands.“The consolidation allows for bet-
ter focus on service and customer sup-port,” said Mark Hooper, NewHolland’s director of marketing.“One place for dealers, one place forproduct support and one place forparts support. The dealers have oneplace, and the customers have oneplace, which enables everyone to bemore efficient.”In the past, dealers may have had
some products from both NewHolland Agriculture and NewHolland Construction, but not to theextent that they will following thisbrand integration. Customers willnow be able to easily obtain the equip-ment needed from professionals whoknow about all models of product, notjust either construction or agriculture.This allows for New Holland to create prod-uct bundle promotions with select agricul-ture and construction equipment to providecustomers with advanced savings.
The full line of New Holland’s light con-struction equipment (skid steer loaders,compact track loaders, tractor/loaders, trac-tor/loader/backhoes, compact wheel loaders,
compact excavators and related attachments)will continue to be branded under NewHolland Construction, however they willnow be grouped along with New Holland
Agriculture for marketing and administra-tive purposes. Along with Pro Work Tools, New Holland
also has announced the introduction of itsnew FleetForce Telematic system,which will be available on tractorloader backhoes and tractor loaders.The product will allow for equipmentowners to monitor the specific loca-tion and total activity hours on theirmachinery to maximize productivity.This technology is thought to be ofspecial importance to equipmentrental businesses, who will now beable to keep tabs on their products atall times.“We really want to promote the full
range of professional grade equip-ment,” said Hooper. “This is not justan Ag company getting into the con-struction equipment, we are focused inthe market and we have people dedi-cated to the business. We have theproduct, support, and dealer network

Funding Fulton State Hospital...
Missouri Officials Add Money for Construction PlansBy Jordan Shapiro and Chris BlankASSOCIATED PRESS
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) Missouriofficials moved forward May 2 with effortsto add funding for improvements to the statemental hospital, Capitol and park system. The efforts coincided with a favorable
financial report released by Gov. Jay Nixon’sadministration that showed state revenuesthrough April were 11.2 percent higher thanat this point last year. Buoyed by the news, Nixon announced
he directed his budget director to develop anamendment for next year’s proposed budgetthat would allow $86 million for capitalimprovements if current trends continue. Onthe same day, the House advanced legisla-tion that includes $121 million for construc-tion work in the 2014 budget that takes effectJuly 1. Nixon’s administration said theHouse’s proposal is for one-time purposesand is consistent with the governor’s propos-al. Nixon’s amendment included $13 million
for the planning and design of a new facilityat the Fulton State Hospital, $28 million for
structural repairs to the state Capitol and $45million for improvements to state parks. TheHouse legislation would coincide withNixon’s plan for the Fulton hospital whileproviding $20 million for state parks, $38million to construct a new office buildingpotentially at an old prison site in JeffersonCity and $50 million for new windows andstructural repairs at the Capitol. “As we continue to monitor these positive
trends, strategic investment in key assets,such as our state parks, is a fiscally prudentapproach to moving our state forward,’’Nixon said. House Speaker Tim Jones said increased
state revenues allow lawmakers to considerspending for projects that have not beencompleted during recent tight budgets. “These will be one-time expenditures for
things that everyone wants to accomplish,’’said Jones, R- Eureka. Republican legislative leaders had been at
odds over what to do with higher-than-expected revenues. Senate Appropriations Committee
Chairman Kurt Schaefer, who before theMay 2 report had said he wanted to spend
more than $200 million to replace the agingFulton State Hospital, said the capitalimprovement plan could go even further. “There is clearly more money than the
governor is acknowledging in his amend-ment,’’ said Schaefer, R-Columbia. Lawmakers have until May 10 to approve
next year’s budget. Increased funding mightshorten the state’s lists of needed construc-tion repairs and projects, but the House alsogave initial approval to a $1.2 billion bond-ing initiative to pay for capital improvementsMay 2. The bonding proposal could fund projects
on college campuses, state parks, a newfacility at Fulton State Hospital and othercapital improvement projects. It also wouldcreate a fund from which public K-12schools could borrow for capital needs andmoney also could be used for ports and ruralwater projects. Jones, who is sponsoring the bonding
package, said it would address major stateneeds. However, he said time is runningshort before the Legislature’s mandatoryadjournment and that the discussion likelywill continue into next year. He said the
potential for more money in next year’sbudget for construction needs could allowthe amount of a bonding initiative to bereduced. The revenue report released by the Office
of Administration shows that Missouri’s netgeneral revenue totaled $6.67 billion fromJuly through April, compared to $5.99 bil-lion during the same period last year. State budget officials also announced that
$375 million borrowed earlier this year froma state budget reserve fund was repaid. Themoney was used for cash flow purposes andwas required to be repaid by May 15. In addition, the governor announced that
he had released $29.6 million in the currentyear’s budget that he had blocked when ittook effect last summer. The bulk of thatgoes to facilities maintenance and repair,with other initiatives to receive fundingincluding math and science tutoring, anurban teaching program, the scholars andfine arts academies, early grade literacy andthe eating disorder council.

This combination of featuresresults in small particle sizes, while eliminat-ing the jamming and wrapping issues associ-ated with other products, according to themanufacturer. An optional primary-stage shear bar also
is available for ultra-fine mulching.The mulching heads operate at 1,700 to
2,150 rpm and feature a four-groove bandedbelt drive with spring-loaded tensioner. Theycome standard with a fixed-displacement,piston-style motor that delivers hydraulicpower at 97-percent efficiency, which ismuch higher than traditional gear-typemotors offer. The fixed-displacement motorcan be upgraded to the V-Drive system thatincludes a variable-displacement motor withload-sensing technology. Under light loads,the V-Drive system operates at maximumrpm, and as the load increases, it automati-cally lowers the rotor rpm to maximizetorque.The mulching head offers full rotation, due
to specially designed hose routing. This fea-ture also allows the unit to easily positiontrees with the adjustable push bar and weld-ed claw hooks. The push bar can be used topush falling brush and trees away from thepower unit, and the claw hooks can pullmaterial into position for proper feeding.Hydraulic push bar adjustment is optional.The Carbide Cutter G3 also is designed for
maximum durability. For instance, high-strength Hardox steel is used in areasexposed to high wear. Furthermore, theCarbide Cutter G3 is equipped with a customhydraulic control valve that protects the unitfrom pressure spikes, and it also stops therotor quickly on shut-down without damag-ing the components, according to the manu-facturer.Other standard features include an on-
board pressure gauge, steel deflector chainsand adjustable skid shoes. Tooth optionsinclude standard carbide teeth, planer carbideteeth and Quadco planer blades.Loftness manufactures the VMLogix line

Five Structures to Be Rehabilitated in Addition to Roadat $12,387,037, saw work begin in March.“The road is basically worn out,” said
Tom Stalley, Heavy Constructors projectmanager. “It was built in the early 1960s andthe pavement has just deteriorated to thepoint where maintenance is no longer feasi-ble.”The in-place concrete pavement will be
replaced with non-reinforced PPC pave-ment. Aside from some minor lightinginstallation, there are no utility issues to dealwith. In addition to rebuilding the road, fivestructures are being rehabilitated — the off-ramp structure for exit 10, the SpearfishCreek Bridge and three continuously rein-forced concrete bridges between exits 12 and17.The first phase of the work is divided into
six sections and in total, 24,000 cu. yds.(18,349 cu m) of concrete pavement,between 8 and 9 in. (20 and22.8 cm) thick, will beremoved and recycled for usein future projects.When completed, the new
road will consist of 126,000 sq.yds. (10,535 sq m) of PCCPavement, 103,000 tons (9,344t) of granular base, and fivenew rehabilitated bridges. “Once the concrete is off and
the existing granular andasphalt below it,” said Stalley,“it’s basically reshaping theexisting grade to a new profilethat is more in line with today’sstandards.”The first task was to set the
project up for head-to-headtraffic and on April 1, crewsfrom Heavy Constructors andits subcontractors began thework. The first three phasesmust be completed by July 24in time for the SturgisMotorcycle Rally, which is expected toattract 500,000 riders and will halt work onthe project until Aug. 12.The project must be open to traffic by
Nov. 1, and overall completion of Dec. 20because it is an incentive/disincentive proj-ect.The weather has not been helpful thus far.“We had solid rain for several weeks in
April and May and one particular rain stormin mid-May left up to 10 inches of water andon May 28 we received another four inchesof rain,” said Stalley. “Having all-night shiftsis one of the options. We haven’t been ableto do that yet. When we get to the pointwhere we have the gravel, we’ve talkedabout part of our paving crews workingevening and night hours to try to stay aheadof the paving operation, which will be done
during the day. We’ve scheduled our work,thus far, six days a week, 12 hours a day.”The sections scheduled for completion by
July 24 must be ready for use by the rally.Another challenge has been dealing with
the existing sub-grade.“It’s soft and we’ve had to make changes
to the contract as far as doing additionalundercut and reworking of the grade,” saidStalley.This requires Heavy Constructors and the
subcontractors to maximize their efforts andcoordinating these efforts is essential. HeavyConstructors holds two internal meetingsper-week on a weekly basis to review sched-ules and work done, and the firm meets withthe subcontractors and officials fromSDDOT weekly at Spearfish’s city hall toreview progress and help resolve problems.
“It’s a collaborativeeffort,” said Stalley. The major subcon-
tractors include TrafficServices Company (per-manent striping and traf-fic control signage), HiltEngineering (removal
and replacement of guard rails on all struc-tures, erosion control, and final permanentseeding of the project), ZandstraConstruction (grading and gravelling), BroszEngineering (survey and profile), MuthElectric (vehicle identification system)Fiberwrap Construction Services (bridgecolumn repair), and Southern DakotaContracting, (diamond grinding of bridgedecks).When the work reaches it peak, the site
will have more than 70 workers. HeavyConstructors has three crews working on thebridges — this work was unaffected by theweather. The closed section of road has pro-vided sufficient space for the location oftemporary offices, storage of materials,repair facilities and the parking of vehiclesand equipment.
Zandstra Construction almost exclusivelyuses Caterpillar equipment, including scrap-ers, bulldozers, excavators motorgraders,skid steers, and tractors. Heavy Constructorsessentially uses Gomaco equipment for itspaving. On this job it is employing aGomaco 2800 two-track concrete paver, aGomaco 2600 two-track spreader, and aGomaco cure tine machine — a three-piecetrain.The firm purchases and rents its Gomaco
equipment from a Gomaco dealer in IdaGrove, Iowa. A 9500 Gomaco trimmer wasrented as the firm’s trimmer is being current-ly employed at on the project to rebuildJackson Boulevard in Rapid City.Heavy Constructors’ fleet include skid
steers, backhoes and other vehicles that havebeen purchased from Caterpillar, Bobcat andJohn Deere dealerships in Rapid City such asJenner Equipment, DMI, Butler Caterpillerand RDO Equipment.Stalley said that subcontractors have full-
time mechanics on site and that once themain work begins, Heavy Contractors willhave one full-time mechanic present. Each

Hyundai Unveils Tier IVi Mid-to-Large-Size ExcavatorsHyundai Construction
Equipment Americas Inc. hasadded three new constructionclass crawler excavators: theR300LC-9A, 330LC-9A and380LC-9A. These new earth-movers feature a certifiedInterim Tier IV engine upgrade,improved hydraulics, increasedoperator comfort and moredurability, according to the man-ufacturer. These excavators are practi-
cal for mid and large size exca-vating projects, site preparation,pipeline installation, road andutility work or demolition. Likethe rest of Hyundai’s new 9Aseries, all three machines meetTier IV Interim standards. The R300LC-9A, 330LC-9A
and 380LC-9A boast respectiveoperating weights of 65,700,72,750 and 86,200 lb. (29,801,33,000 and 39,099 kg). Hyundai has powered each of
these 9A excavators with a lowemission, low noise, CumminsInterim Tier IV/Stage IIIBengine. (a QSB6.7 for the300LC-9A, a QSC for the330LC-9A and a QSL9 the380LC-9A). All engines arecomplemented by Cummins’VGT Turbocharger, which con-tinuously varies the airflowboost to precisely match enginerpm and load demands for opti-mal performance. Other innova-tions such as the variable speedfan clutch, two-stage auto decelsystem and the economy modehelp to conserve fuel and reduceenvironmental impact. Plus,operators can choose between three uniqueengine modes — power, standard and econ-omy — which enable the machine to switchbetween full power and reduced fuel con-sumption according to the user’s preference. Hydraulic system technologies make the
9A series excavators fast, smooth and easy tocontrol. The R300LC-9A, 330LC-9A and380LC-9A come with a redesignedhydraulic system which provides the opera-tor with super fine touch and improved con-trollability, according to the manufacturer.Hyundai has improved the structure
strength of the 9A series cabs with strongerbut slimmer tubing for optimum safety andvisibility. High-strength steel forms a moredurable upper and lower frame. In addition,the enlarged cab comes with a see-throughupper skylight, a larger and one-piece right-side glass, safety glass windows on all sidesthat won’t scratch or fade, a closeable sun-
shade and a reduced front window seam —all features that work together to improvevisibility.In addition to enhanced safety and visibil-
ity, operators will enjoy the ability to fullycustomize the cab of the R300LC-9A,330LC-9A and 380LC-9A to best fit theirneeds. Operators can easily adjust the seat,console and armrest settings. Hyundai hasintegrated the seat with the console to reduceoperator fatigue, and adjustable air-suspen-sion comes standard. Sleek styling has beenapplied to the ergonomic joysticks, whichare now height-adjustable. Hyundai’s engineers made sure that the
9A cabs include many amenities thatdecrease stress and increase comfort. Someof these features and benefits include heatedseats, additional space, enhanced climatecontrol system, advanced audio system withUSB player, AM/FM stereo and MP3 capa-
bilities. An optional add on is a smart keysystem that allows the operator to start theignition with the push of a button.The R300LC-9A, 330LC-9A and 380LC-
9A come standard with a newly designedcolor LCD display cluster with easy to readdigital gauges for monitoring temperature,fuel levels and other maintenance items. Thesimplified design allows the operator to eas-ily adjust engine power and work modes, setboom speed and arm regeneration, viewwhat’s happening behind them with theoptional rear-view camera and protect themachine with the new password anti-theftsystem.Like all of Hyundai’s 9A series equip-
ment, the R300LC-9A, 330LC-9A and380LC-9A feature the Hi-mate remote man-agement system, which allows operators anddealer service personnel to access amachine’s vital service and diagnostic infor-
mation from anywhere with internet access.Hi-mate users can remotely monitor dailyreports outlining a machine’s location, work-ing hours, fuel consumption and any period-ical maintenance needed, drastically reduc-ing downtime and saving the owner time andmoney.Hyundai’s 9A-series excavators offer
bushings designed for extended lube inter-vals of 250 hours — and polymer shims toresist wear and reduce noise. Included alsoare extended-life hydraulic filters (1,000hours), long-life hydraulic oil (5,000 hours)and more efficient cooling systems and inte-grated preheating systems, according to themanufacturer.

Weather Conditions Fail to Affect Well-Maintained Iron
When completed, the new road will consist of 126,000 sq. yds. (10,535 sq m) of PCC Pavement,103,000 (tons(9,344 t) of granular base, and five new rehabilitated bridges.
subcontractor is handling its own repair work and if HeavyConstructors’ equipment cannot be repaired on site, it willeither be handled by a dealership or by the firm’s repair andmaintenance shop in Rapid City.
He added that the weather conditions have not impactedthe equipment. To ensure preventative maintenance sched-ules are being followed, the superintendent keeps a mainte-nance log and if necessary, crews are brought in from themaintenance shop.
“When we do have a problem, it’s usually somethingunexpected,” said Stalley, who stressed how important theeyes and ears of the operators are. “Part of their job is to becognizant of equipment and to make sure that if something isnot acting right, that their supervisor is informed and then itis forwarded to me.”
The weather may be a factor, but well-maintained equip-ment is ensuring that work is being maximized by all parties.
Stalley said the lessons being learned thus far are helpful.“We’ve already learned enough that we will be highly
more efficient when we resume the work after the rally,” hesaid, noting how firm is keen to secure the two contracts tocomplete the entire Spearfish project. “We’ve got anextremely good working relationship with the DOT — opencommunication, talking through issues and trying to resolvethem as timely as possible.”

The Terex Finlay 883 Spaleck combiflip-flow screen is the result of a joint part-nership between Terex Finlay and Spaleck. At the heart of the mobile plant is the
two-deck German designed and construct-ed high performance screenbox. Thestepped top deck design is combined withflip-flow technology on the bottom deck.Its processing capabilities and applicationflexibility make the machine the only all inone mobile solution for processing difficultwaste, recycling, slag, C&D, shreddedmetal, wood, compost, mulch, ores, coaland soil, according to the manufacturer. Even large-grained material can be
screened on a screening machine with aflip-flow screen deck. The screening deckwith 3D screen segments, which is posi-tioned above the flip-flow screen deck toform a cascade, protects and reduces thestress on the flip-flow screen mats. Servicelife is increased and optimal screeningresults are guaranteed.The 3D screen segments with maximum
open screen area can be changed quickly
and simply due to the modular construc-tion. The screen mats of the 3D flip-flowscreen are fastened without screws andhave no edges that could cause difficulties.This means that the screen mats can bechanged quickly and there is an optimalproduct flow on the screen mats.Key Features:• Virtually blockage-free screening in the
upper and lower deck due to tried and test-ed 3D and flip-flow technology.• The 3D screening segments guarantee
accurate screening with no long piecespassing into the middlegrade material.• The flip-flow screen with screwless
mounted screen mats avoids unnecessarycleaning and reduces maintenance times.• Screenbox discharge end can be
hydraulically raised 500 mm to facilitateefficient and easy media access and chang-ing.

Terex Fuchs MHL340 E Boasts MorePowerful, Turbocharged Diesel EngineThe Terex Fuchs MHL340 E material handler boasts a
more powerful 173 hp (129 kW) turbocharged diesel enginethan the MHL340 D, while at the same time lowering spe-cific fuel consumption by 6 percent, according to the manu-facturer. The new material handler incorporates a simplified
exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system for meeting TierIVi/Stage IIIB emissions standards and uses passive regen-eration to clean the diesel particulate filter. “Regeneration occurs automatically during normal oper-
ating conditions, so as not to impact machine performance,”said Steve Brezinski, Terex Fuchs product manager. Its combination of power and reach has made the versatile
MHL340 Series material handler a preferred model for abroad range of indoor and outdoor applications, includingwork at scrap metal feeder yards, municipal solid waste(MSW) processing at recycling/recovery facilities (MRFs),and sorting material at transfer stations. Customers can equipthe MHL340 E with a variety of boom and stick configura-tions, offering up to a 44.9-ft. (13.7 m) reach. A multi-pur-pose stick with 40-ft. (12.2 m) reach includes a stick-mount-ed hydraulic cylinder to allow up and down movement of theattachment, increasing efficiency in sorting applications. Theavailable Terex Fuchs quick connect (FQC) system allowsoperators to switch from the stick to a shear attachment inless than one minute, boosting machine flexibility and pro-ductivity. The MHL340 E’s revamped high-performance two-cir-
cuit hydraulic system increases main hydraulic pump capac-ity by 3 percent, compared to its previous version, toimprove efficiency and machine responsiveness. Both theengine and hydraulic system include larger cooling systemsprotected by vented panels that provide increased airflow, sothe material handler runs cooler in high ambient tempera-tures. A hydraulically height-adjustable
cab gives operators a maxi-mum eye-level eleva-tion of up to 17.7-ft.(5.4 m) aboveground level,s imp l i f y i n gloading andu n l o a d i n goperations.Its cush-ioned cabelevationsys-
tem provides absorption of shocks and jolts for operatorcomfort. Inside the spacious cab, updated controls improve opera-
tor productivity and comfort. An improvement from the pre-vious model includes a 23 percent larger high resolution/highcontrast wide video graphics array (WVGA) color display,which features an antiglare shield and scratch-resistant coat-ing for easier viewing in direct sunlight and improved dura-bility. Color video of the work area behind the machine iscaptured by the standard rearview camera and shown on theWVGA monitor for easy viewing by the operator. Intuitivecontrols, including quick-access push buttons for frequentlyused functions, make for a short learning curve of MHL340E operation, and the ergonomic multifunction button deliv-ers effortless fingertip navigation through the displayscreens. The machine’s convenient stow-away ladder simplifies
machine maintenance by offering quick access to the engine,central lubrication system and large area platform of theupper carriage service deck. The large coolers for the engineand hydraulic system are lockable and readily accessed fromground level. Additional CAN Bus connections expanddiagnostic capabilities, so service technicians can quicklyidentify and address underlying issues.Offering four-wheel drive, the Terex Fuchs MHL340 E
has a 12.4 mph (20 kmh) maximum speed to quickly movearound the yard, while its 27-degree steering angle helps toefficiently maneuver around obstructions, according to themanufacturer. A double-row slewing ring design disperses forces over
two rows of bearings to improve component service life anddurability. Inverted hydraulic boom cylinder mounting offerssuperior protection during loading and unloading proce-dures, while rigid hydraulic pipes located on the stick,
boom and undercarriage help protect against dam-age. Steel plates shielding the hydraulic lines at theend of the stick deliver additional protection toimprove system reliability.

(76 cm) diameter feedwheel is pow-ered by an internal drive Fairfield torque hub with nochains or sprockets for more torque, greater durability andless maintenance. Other standard features include aPoclain infeed chain drive, dust suppression, remote con-trol, air brakes and hydraulic oil cooler. Available as atracked unit for greater mobility or with electric power, the3200 can be built with Morbark’s most popular options,including an externally adjustable break-away torque lim-iter to protect the driveline and the hammermill, magnet-ized end pulley for ferrous metal removal, or theQuickswitch 12- and 16-knife drum assembly to easilyconvert from making mulch to making chips.

Morbark Inc.’s redesigned 40/36 whole tree microchipperis the latest in design enhancements. The 40/36 whole tree drum chipper was first introduced
in 2008 as a compact, affordable and productive biomasschipper. The model was improved by the addition of theAdvantage 3 high performance chipping drum in 2011,which improved chip quality. The latest model includes anenhanced drum set with 16 knives utilizing standard hard-ware, an operator-friendly slide-in forestry grate system toreduce oversized chips and a mechanically driven chipaccelerator to fully load vans with the micro-chips.“With new biomass plants being built in the United States
and the rapid expansion of wood pellet exports to Europe tomeet the European Union’s mandate that 20 percent of itsenergy come from renewable sources by 2020, our cus-tomers need a cost-effective system for makingmicrochips,” said John Foote, Morbark VP of sales and mar-keting. “This newly re-engineered 40/36 microchipper is thesolution. We are able to produce a far superior product, pro-ducing 95 to 98 percent acceptable micro-chips at volumesof more than 70 tons per hour.” With an average fuel consumption of 2.25 tons (2 t) of
micro-chips produced per gallon of fuel used, the Morbark40/36 MicroChipper allows owners to reduce costs andmaximize profits. In customer tests, 95 to 98 percent of themicro-chips produced passed through a ½ in. (1.3 cm) grate,and 72 to 74 percent passed through a ¼ in. (.6 cm) grate.These micro-chips are vital for pellet mills, eliminating theneed to regrind the wood fiber prior to pelletizing. For more information, visit www.morbark.com.

Case 621F, 721F Wheel Loader WasteHandlers Feature Protective Guards Case Construction Equipment’s 621F and 721F wheel
loader waste handling models have factory-installed protec-tive guards in 16 key coverage areas, a mid-mounted coolingmodule that provides special cooling and advanced air filtra-tion components for working in concentrated dust anddebris-filled environments, and heavy duty axles that supportsolid tires. The 621F and 721F waste handlers are engineeredfor resilience in harsh environments, helping scrap recyclingcenters to maximize uptime by protecting their machinesfrom costly failures.“Case developed an unobtrusive factory-born waste han-
dling package because our scrap customers want an OEMsolution purpose-built just for their jobs,” said RobMarringa, brand marketing manager, CaseConstruction Equipment. “Reliability and durabil-ity are their utmost concerns. They want the reas-surance that their wheel loaders will survive theoperating environment, and a factory-installedsolution, backed by Case, gives them that confi-dence.”The protective guarding includes thick metal-
wrapped hydraulic hoses with heavy gauge steellift cylinder tube guards, windshield windscreenguard, bolt-on front and rear frame guards, frontaxle covers, front and rear frame articulation jointguards, light guards, transmission guard and sidecover and fuel tank guard.Material ejectors ensure that the material being
moved doesn’t compromise the cylinder pockets.The waste handlers are available with multipleoptional attachments specifically engineered tomaximize productivity in the scrap and recyclingindustries, including a large capacity waste handling bucketwith rubber cutting teeth, grapples and forks. The Case cooling cube on the 621F and 721F waste han-
dlers reduces clean-out intervals and susceptibility to thermalevents. It features wider fin spacing that maintains coolingcapability by allowing larger particulate debris to passthrough the coolers, decreasing build-up. The cooling mod-ule cover also is slanted to reduce material build-up and aidin self-cleaning. A programmable auto-reversing fan auto-matically purges the screens and coolers for less manualcleaning, which increases operating times. Additionally, aSy-Clone ejective air pre-cleaner ensures the capture of thoselarger particles prior to handling by the primary air filter,which results in fewer filter changes. Finally, the added seal-ing around the cooling module diminishes build up in hardto reach areas.The heavy duty axles on the 621F and 721F waste han-
dlers offer auto-locking front and open rear differentials,metal face seals and sintered bronze brake linings. They pro-vide outstanding traction in all conditions, superior sealingcapability and longer service lives. Most importantly, theycan accept higher load capacities, allowing operators to con-figure the wheel loader with solid tires, commonly demand-ed in most scrap and waste applications, to reduce the likeli-hood of a flat.As with its entire F Series fleet, Case chose selective cat-
alytic reduction (SCR) technology for the 621F and 721Fwaste handlers to meet Tier IV Interim emissions standards.SCR results in lower temperatures in the exhaust systemwhile optimizing combustion with no downtime or extreme
temperature spikes attributed to regeneration found onmachines outfitted with cooled exhaust gas recirculation(CEGR) and diesel particulate filters (DPF).“Case is the only domestic manufacturer to strictly use
SCR on wheel loaders,” Marringa said. “We feel that SCR isthe most obvious choice for wheel loaders because its tasksare so variable, creating inconsistent engine loads and powerdemands as well as extended periods of idling. However,operators do need strong lift capacity, robust pushing power,and quick cycle times. So rather than compromise power, welet the engine run at peak performance by using an after-treatment for emissions rather than recirculating theexhaust.”
According to Marringa, operators will experience a fasterthrottle response and cleaner emissions by avoiding recircu-lation equipment utilizing CEGR and DPFs.The advanced instrument cluster (AIC) on the 621F and
721F waste handlers includes four operating modes and a tri-mode power feature that maximizes fuel economy by allow-ing the operator to select engine throttle and RPM require-ments based upon the task. In addition, auto idle, a fuel-sav-ing feature, allows for multiple idle rates, reducing fuel con-sumption while operators are in between tasks.“Auto idle and an automatic engine shutdown feature can
provide up to another 30 percent in fuel savings,” saidMarringa. “The 621F and 721F waste handlers deliver thebest fuel economy and performance in their class sizes andgive operators flexibility in matching engine power to theirjobs.”Multiple data screens and menu patterns in the AIC allow
operators and service technicians full visibility and control ofbasic job functions, such as start-up gear selection and jobsite fuel efficiency, as well as protective controls includingautomatic machine protection, which recognizes criticalproblems with the hydraulics, engine or transmission andshuts down the engine, helping to eliminate costly repairs.The Case F series waste handlers deliver comfort and
visibility, including the Case quiet cab, optional joysticksteering, a standard rear view camera, floor-to-ceilingwindows and improved lighting system.For more information, visit www.CaseCE.com. (This story also can be found on Construction Equipment

With an operating weight of111,000 lbs. (50,349 kg), theMH3049 is the first of several newwheeled material handlers thatCaterpillar will introduce in thegreater-than-25-tons class.Coming immediately behind theMH3049 is the new MH3059 at anoperating weight of 130,000 lbs.(58,967 kg). The new Cat materi-al handlers are purpose-built towork productively and durably inindustrial, scrap recycling andwaterway applications, whileaffording maximum protectionand convenience for the operator.A “ground entry and exit” with astep-in cab enhances safety foroperators and service personnel.Both of the new material han-
dlers are powered by the CatACERT C9 8.8L engine featuringan electronically controlled,mechanically actuated, unit-injec-tor fuel system that uses multiple-injection fuel delivery for opti-mum power and economy in alloperating situations. TheMH3049’s C9 engine is rated at300 hp (224 kW) while theMH3059 engine is rated at 325 hp(242 kW). High strength structural steel
and advanced welding techniquesensure structural integrity; a pow-erful hydraulic system providesrapid response with efficiency; aCat C9 ACERT engine deliversreliable, fuel-saving performance;and new serviceability featuressimplify maintenance. Thesedesign elements combine to pro-vide low-cost operation and maxi-mum value for the MH3049 andMH3059 customers, according tothe manufacturer.
Structures and HydraulicsMajor structures use continuous
welds that incorporate extensivechamfering and beveling to reducestress concentration. Both thebooms and sticks are constructedfrom single piece top and sidesteel plates eliminating the needfor seams and internal baffles. Theupper frame is designed specifical-ly to dissipate loads transferredthrough the front linkage andcounterweight, and the lowerframe’s tapered design evenly dis-tributes loads and reduces stress.Oversized pins and bushingsstrengthen pivot points. In addi-tion, extensive finite element
analysis and strain-gauge testingthroughout the design processensure long-term durability,according to the manufacturer. Using a closed-center, two-
pump, load-sensing implementhydraulic system with electro-hydraulic pilot control, hydraulicpumps generate only as much oilflow and pressure as required forthe application, yielding powerful,rapid response and fuel-savingefficiency. To further enhanceoverall hydraulic power and effi-ciency, the machines regenerateboom-down oil flow, reducing thevolume of oil the pumps must pro-duce. Reflecting the precise hydraulic
design, the machines dividehydraulic functions between theupper and lower main controlvalves, with the upper valve man-aging the boom, stick, work tools,cab riser and cooling circuits, andthe lower valve controlling travel,steering and outriggers. This pro-vides optimal flow management toallow multiple machine functionsto occur at the same time withoutcompromising performance. Anindependent closed loop swingsystem maintains swing priority atall time. The hydraulic-oil cooler,working with an auto-reversingfan, is positioned away from the
independent engine cooling sys-tem to ensure optimum operatingtemperatures between 140 F and160 F (60 to 71 C), which protectsoil quality, extends component lifeand promotes optimum machineperformance.
Operator Safety,Convenience
The hydraulic cab-riser systemfeatures “ground entry and exit”with a step-in cab, enhancing safe-ty for operators and service per-sonnel. Cab height on bothmachines is adjustable up to aneye level of 18.75 ft. (5.70 m) onthe MH3049 and 23.5 ft. (7.2 m)on the MH3059. On the MH3049,raise time from ground level tomaximum height is approximately14 seconds; lowering time frommaximum height to ground levelis 12 seconds. Similarly, the raisetime from ground level to maxi-mum height on the MH3059 isapproximately 17 seconds andlowering time from maximumheight to ground level is 13 sec-onds. Adjustable sensors controlthe height of the cab above theground. A manual safety overridein the cab allows the operator tolower the riser in the event ofengine power loss. The MH3049 and MH3059 are
equipped with an impact-absorb-ing falling objects guarding sys-tem (FOGS) that protects the oper-ator from flying or falling debris inthe work area. An adjustable lim-iter prevents work tool contactwith the cab, and load-holdingvalves on hydraulic cylinders pre-vent sudden uncontrolled drop ofthe boom, stick, cab, or outriggers. Images from the standard
rearview camera are displayed viaa high-definition color monitor. Aseparate monitor displays operat-ing parameters, start-up fluid-levelstatus, machine warnings and acti-vated work functions, which arecontrolled with the joysticks. Themachine’s operating systemallows operators to set functionsaccording to preference and pro-vides maintenance reminders,diagnostic capabilities and out-of-specification alerts.
Serviceability and WorkTools
The fiberglass gull-wing panelon the engine compartment’s rightside and the top panel are support-ed by gas struts, giving readyaccess to the routine maintenancepoints in a spacious, lighted com-partment. The engine-oil filter andfuel filters are easily accessible
through a right side panel atground level. An automatic lubrication system
services most upper and lowergrease points on an adjustableworking-time interval, and thegrease reservoir requires refillingonly at approximate 400-hourintervals. To facilitate machinediagnosis, Cat equipment techni-cian diagnostic connectors arelocated in the cab and on the sideof the engine.The MH3049 and MH3059 fea-
ture medium-pressure flow from aseparate valve for tool rotation anda high-pressure circuit from themain pumps to operate theopen/close functions of typicaltools, such as orange-peel grap-ples, clamshells, and log grapples.A separate pump is used to providehydraulic power to operate a gen-erator for an optional scrap mag-net. The generator features a Catsolid-state magnet controller thateliminates typical maintenanceissues and is supported and war-ranted through Cat dealers.For more information, visit

Caterpillar Unveils MH3049, MH3059 Material HandlersThe MH3049’s C9 engine is rated at 300 hp
(224 kW) while the MH3059 engine israted at 325 hp (242 kW).
The Mack Twin Y air suspen-sion is the trucking industry’s firstsuspension to utilize a Y-shapedhigh-strength steel design.Delivering comfort, handling andfuel efficiency for highway cus-tomers desiring a smoother, morestable ride, the Twin Y is up to 403lbs. (183 kg) lighter than other airsuspensions, offering customers asignificantly lighter weight option,according to the manufacturer. Field-tested by customers for
more than three million miles and
available on the Mack Pinnacleaxle back and axle forward mod-els, the Mack Twin Y featuresMack S38 and S40 series axleswith C125/126, C150/151 and 200Series carriers.The Mack mRIDE spring sus-
pension, now offered with Mackaxles, is ideal for vocational cus-tomers demanding a durable, sta-ble ride with greater articulation.Paired with the Mack C150/151series axle carriers, the MackmRIDE is available on the Mack
Granite, Titan by Mack, MackPinnacle Axle Forward and theMack TerraPro model trucks.“Customers want a durable,
rugged truck that gets the job done,but they also demand outstandingperformance, handling and com-fort,” said John Walsh, Mack vicepresident of marketing. “This iswhere Mack excels. The fully inte-grated Mack Twin Y and mRIDEsuspensions featuring our propri-etary Mack axles offer improvedstability, fuel efficiency, and ulti-mately a greater ROI for our cus-tomers.”
Twin Y Design ImprovesStability, Control
The design of the Mack Twin Yair suspension includes twostamped high-strength steel Y-shaped blades per wheel end.Clamping the axle with both upperand lower axle seats, the Twin Yblades greatly reduce suspensionwindup and significantly improve
tire traction and braking control, aswell as increase tire life by up to 25percent, according to the manufac-turer.The axle seats are clamped to
the axle housing by Huck U-boltson both sides and never need to bere-torqued.Bushings in the upper and lower
axle seats offer greater roll controland deliver easier handling with amore comfortable ride. The TwinY’s lighter weight and reducedtorque reactivity means less main-tenance and extended tire andcomponent life, which alsoimproves customer ROI.The Twin Y’s design means the
load on the suspension is entirelyon the air ride and not on the pivotbushing.
Mack mRIDE Absorbs the Work
The use of spring leafs over fourseparate rubber block packs on themRIDE provides stability andarticulation, while also allowing
the needed clearance for largertires and brake componentsrequired in construction and voca-tional applications.In addition to being lighter than
other spring suspensions, themRIDE delivers a smoother ride,improved stability and greaterground clearance over difficult ter-rain. The Mack mRIDE providesconstant ground contact for allwheels over its articulation range,which in turn maximizes tractionon any job site. The parallel pinion angles of the
Mack axles extend the drivelinejoint life. Coupled with the grease-less mRIDE suspension, the offer-ing boasts easier maintenance andis easier to align, contributing toreduced customer maintenancecosts.For more information, visit

Residential Construction WorkersFind New Opportunities in TruckingMore than 1.4 million residential
construction jobs were lost betweenApril 2006 and October of 2011,according to Bob Nielsen, chairman ofthe National Association of HomeBuilders. Timothy Wagner, who used to own a
painting company, went from pickingand choosing which jobs he wanted tonot having any at all when the housingand construction market crashed. After a few years of trying to make
ends meet, he decided to look at a newcareer path — this time as a profes-sional driver in the trucking industry.Wagner’s search led him to Prime Inc.,where he has been a driver sinceJanuary 2012.“I didn’t go to college, so I knew that
my options might be limited,” said the42-year-old. “I was looking for steadywork that I could do and truck drivingseemed like the logical answer. It’s nicenow to get a paycheck without havingto chase my money down myself.”The American Trucking Association
(ATA) is conducting a national driverrecruitment campaign in order toemploy a Global Insights Inc. predictedshortage of 111,000 drivers by 2014 inthe trucking industry. The campaign focuses on increasing
its pool of driver applicants by appeal-ing to people like Wagner who arelooking to embark on a second career.The ATA estimates that at the current
trends, the driver shortage could bal-loon to as much as 239,000 drivers by2022. In addition, the ATA estimatesthat 96,178 drivers will be neededevery year over the next 10 years toaccount for the shortage. The transitionof individuals from other industriesinto trucking can play a large role inbridging the gap on the driver shortage.According to the U.S. Department of
Labor, employment in the constructionindustry remains at low levels becauseof the 2007-09 recession, and employ-ment in most construction occupationsis not expected to reach pre-recessionlevels. An Engineering News Record
Construction Industry ConfidenceIndex (CICI) survey shows the con-struction industry’s uncertainty. Thesecond-quarter 2012 CICI fell sixpoints from the first quarter to 50 on ascale of 100, which represents a flatmarket. The 378 executives of largeconstruction and design firms respond-
ing to the survey believe the marketwill not begin to show signs of growthuntil the end of 2013.As for the current market, 32 percent
of industry execs polled believe it isstill in decline, while only 17 percentbelieve it is growing. Only 25 percentbelieve the market will be growingwithin the next six months, while anequal number believe it still will be indecline. However, 51 percent believethe market will be on the upswing bythe end of 2013, compared to only 8percent of respondents who believe the
market will continue to be in decline in12 to 18 months.For Wagner, the decline in the con-
struction industry meant seeking out asecond career. He researched severaltrucking companies online beforedeciding on driving for Prime. Wagnerfound that the company had the stabili-ty he needed with consistent freight andcompetitive pay.“Jumping careers at this point in my
life wasn’t something I planned on, andI wanted to get the best grasp on it thatI could,” he said. “What really got mewas that Prime had better training paythat anyone else. Their training pro-gram is longer, but that’s exactly what Ineeded since I was starting fromscratch.”Prime is known for its commitment
to drivers and being a family-orientedcompany. It wasn’t too long into hiswork with Prime when Wagner discov-ered exactly what that meant. His
brother passed away suddenly andPrime not only made it possible forWagner to go home immediately, butthe company gave him as much time ashe needed to grieve the loss.“I was worried about getting time off
because I hadn’t been working herethat long, but Prime was more than gra-cious,” Wagner said. “The first thingthey said to me was, ‘family first.’ Theysaid I had a job to come back to when-ever I was ready and I respect that.”The professional driver’s schedule
has taken some time for Wagner and
his family to get used to, but they allagree that the benefits far outweigh thechange in lifestyle. With one daughterin college and another one in highschool, working for Prime allowsWagner and his wife Claudia to contin-ue enjoying their New Jersey home andplan for the future.“You have to be prepared because it
is not only a job, but it’s truly alifestyle,” he added. “Once you’reready, you make the commitment andgo at it full force. There’s no half doingthis job.”Opportunities for both company
drivers and independent contractors arecurrently available at Prime, whichoffers incentives designed to promotesafety, on-time service, fuel consump-tion, tractor maintenance and training.(This story also can be found on

“When it comes to delivering loads intotight urban settings, nothing compares toKenworth’s K270 and K370 medium dutycabovers,” said Doug Powell, Kenworthmedium duty marketing manager.According to Powell, beverage distribu-
tors, pick-up and delivery, furniture, foodprocessors and other urban delivery applica-tions have been early customers of theKenworth K270 and K370. “Kenworth’s excellent medium duty
cabovers provide customers with a greatchoice of quality trucks that fit their applica-tions,” said Powell. “This year, we expectour cabover sales to increase further. Weexpect to see customers that run lightertrucks move to longer-lasting trucks withcomponents designed to stand the test oftime. The K270 and K370 will lower thetotal cost of ownership.”That was one reason why Peoria, Ill.-
based Home Comfort Insulation purchasedKenworth cabovers for its operation. “That, along with reliability of the
Kenworth is what sold us on the K370,” saidHans Schmidgall, a fourth-generation opera-tions manager of the 65-year-old family-owned business. “We run in some very tight areas, along
with driving around in cul-de-sacs, so acabover is what we need for our operation,”said Schmidgall. “Some of our other truckshave had a hard time staying out of the shop— they just don’t hold up. We’ve been verypleased with the Kenworth cabovers andthey’re very comfortable to drive. All in all,we’ve been very happy.”Steve Ritchie, a Mississauga, Ont., ware-
house manager for JFC — a food distributor,added, “Driving in downtown Toronto withits narrow streets and busy intersections withpedestrians crossing can be difficult andnerve-wracking. So, we were looking for acabover that offered what a conventionalClass 7 truck could provide in loading capac-ity. We found that with the Kenworth K370and we’ve been pleased with its perform-ance and the visibility and maneuverability itoffers our drivers.”Available with wheelbases ranging from
142- to 242-in. (360 to 614 cm), the K270and K370 can accommodate bodies from16- to 28-ft. (4.8 to 8.5 m). Both the K270and K370 are powered by a 6.7-L PACCARPX-7 engine with a standard 220-hp (164kW) rating and 520 lb-ft of maximumtorque. Optional ratings are 240-hp (179kW) and 560 lb.-ft. of torque and 250-hp(186 kW) with 660 lb.-ft. of torque. Bothmodels are available with Allison 5-speedtransmissions.Inside, the truck accommodates bench
seating for three. Its large 2,500-sq.-in.wraparound windshield combines with largeside windows to give optimum visibility. “Ample storage is also built-in,” said
Powell. “And, like with our T270 and T370,the fit and finish is the highest quality.They’re great looking trucks, and ones thatwill stand the test of time.”For more information, visit www.ken-
worth.com. (This story also can be found on

ALL Erection & Crane Rental Corp. has acquired twonew 20,000-lb. (9,072 kg)-capacity Skyjack ZB2044 tele-handlers, the largest capacity telehandler that Skyjack makesand one of the largest manufactured in North America.
The two telehandlers, onealready at work in ALL’sColumbus, Ohio, yard and onedelivered this month to theCleveland, Ohio, headquartersbranch, will satisfy intensifyingdemand in each of these two mar-kets.
With a 20,000-lb. capacity andsturdy three-section telescopicboom, the Skyjack ZB2044 is idealfor handling large loads in the con-struction and maintenance ofpower plants, mines, wind farms,and large pipelines, plus crane erec-tion and other pick-and-carry jobs.
ALL also will use these newworkhorse telehandlers in suchapplications as bridge and highway work, industrial con-struction and maintenance, shoring, steel erection, andmasonry work. Demand and utilization in these industriesare higher than in the past few years, and many of these proj-ects are benefitting the northeast Ohio region.
Skyjack developed its larger-capacity telehandler inresponse to the need for rugged lift performance combinedwith agility in the often limited-access areas. Another advan-tage is that telehandlers can pick and place horizontally,
whereas a crane is limited to avertical setting of the load.The ZB2044 will be valuablefor its ability to place largeloads to the side of a buildingor structure.
More value lies in its high-capacity performance acrossits work range. According tothe load chart, the ZB2044can lift 20,000 lbs. with itsboom fully retracted and itsoutriggers down or up. Withthe support of its outriggers,the ZB2044 can lift 12,000lbs. (5,443 kg) to its full 44-ft.10-in. (14 m) maximumheight or provide 7,000-lb.
(3,175 kg) capacity at a 27-ft. 5-in. (8 m) forward reach. Ontires alone it can lift 10,000 lbs. (4,536 kg) to a height of 44ft. (13 m) or lift 4,000 lbs. (1,814 kg) to 27 ft. 5 in.

TOLLWAY from page 1
condition or worse. But the bridge that col-lapsed May 23 is not in that deficient cate-gory, highlighting another major problemwith the nation’s infrastructure: Although it’srare, some bridges deemed to be fine struc-turally can still be crippled if they are struckhard enough in the wrong spot. “It probably is a bit of a fluke in that
sense,’’ said Charles Roeder, a professor ofcivil and environmental engineering at theUniversity of Washington. While the I-5 truck’s cargo suffered only
minimal damage, it left chaos in its wake,with two vehicles catapulting off the edge ofthe broken bridge into the river below. Threepeople involved escaped with non-lifethreatening injuries. The most famous failure of a fracture crit-
ical bridge was the collapse of the I-35Wbridge in Minneapolis during rush hour onAug. 1, 2007, killing 13 people and injuringmore than 100 others. The NationalTransportation Safety Board concluded thatthe cause of the collapse was an error by thebridge’s designers — a gusset plate, a keycomponent of the bridge, was too thin. Theplate was only half of the required one-inchthickness. Because the bridge’s key structures lacked
redundancy, where if one piece fails, there isanother piece to prevent the bridge fromfalling, when the gusset plate broke, much ofthe bridge collapsed. Mark Rosenker, who was chairman of the
NTSB during the I-35W bridge investiga-tion, said the board looked into whetherother fracture critical bridges were collaps-ing. They found a few cases, but not many,he said. “Today, they’re still building fracture crit-
ical bridges with the belief that they’re notgoing break,’’ Rosenker said. Fracture critical bridges, like the I-5 span
in Washington, are the result of Congresstrying to cut corners to save money ratherthan a lack of engineering know-how, saidBarry B. LePatner, a New York real estateattorney and author of “Too Big to Fall:America’s Failing Infrastructure and the
Way Forward.’’ Approximately 18,000 fracture critical
bridges were built from the mid-1950sthrough the late 1970s in an effort to com-plete the nation’s interstate highway system,which was launched under President DwightEisenhower, LePatner said in an interview.The fracture critical bridge designs werecheaper than bridges designed with redun-dancy, he said. Thousands of those bridges remain in use,
according to an AP analysis. “They have been left hanging with little
maintenance for four decades now,’’ he said.“There is little political will and less politicalleadership to commit the tens of billions ofdollars needed’’ to fix them. There has been little focus or urgency in
specifically replacing the older “fracture crit-ical’’ crossings, in part because there is amassive backlog of bridge repair work forthousands of bridges deemed to be struc-turally problematic. Washington state Rep.Judy Clibborn, a Democrat who leads theHouse transportation committee, has beentrying to build support for a tax package topay for major transportation projects in thestate. But her plan wouldn’t have done any-thing to revamp the bridge that collapsed. National bridge records say the I-5 cross-
ing over the Skagit River had a sufficiencyrating of 57.4 out of 100 — a score designedto gauge the ability of the bridge to remain inservice. To qualify for federal replacementfunds, a bridge must have a rating of 50 orbelow. A bridge must have a sufficiency rat-
ing of 80 or below to qualify for federal reha-bilitation funding. Hundreds of bridges in Washington state
have worse ratings than the one that col-lapsed, and many around the country havesingle-digit ratings. Clibborn said the Skagit River crossing
wasn’t even on the radar of lawmakersbecause state officials have to prioritize byfocusing on bridges with serious structuralproblems that are at higher risk of imminentdanger. Along with being at risk of a fatal impact,
the I-5 bridge was deemed to be “functional-ly obsolete,’’ which essentially means it was-n’t built to today’s standards. Its shoulderswere narrow, and it had low clearance. There are 66,749 structurally deficient
bridges and 84,748 functionally obsoletebridges in the United States, includingPuerto Rico, according to the FederalHighway Administration. That’s about aquarter of the 607,000 total bridges national-ly. States and cities have been whittlingdown that backlog, but slowly. In 2002,about 30 percent of bridges fell into one ofthose two categories. Spending by states and local government
on bridge construction adjusted for inflationhas more than doubled since 1998, from$12.3 billion to $28.5 billion last year,according to the American Road andTransportation Builders Association. That’san all-time high. “The needs are so great that even with the
growth we’ve had in the investment level,
it’s barely moving the needle in terms ofmoving bridges off these lists,’’ said AlisonPremo Black, the association’s chief econo-mist. There is wide recognition at all levels of
government that the failure to address aginginfrastructure will likely undermine safetyand hinder economic growth. But there is noconsensus on how to pay for improvements.The federal Highway Trust Fund, which pro-vides construction aid to states, is forecast togo broke next year. The fund gets its revenueprimarily from federal gas and diesel taxes.But revenues aren’t keeping up because peo-ple are driving less and there are more fuel-efficient cars on the road. Neither Congress nor the White House
has shown any willingness to raise federalgas taxes, which haven’t been increasedsince 1993. Many transportation thinkersbelieve a shift to taxes based on miles trav-eled by a vehicle is inevitable, but there areprivacy concerns and other difficulties thatwould preclude widespread use of such asystem for at least a decade. Transportation spending got a temporary
boost with the economic stimulus fundsapproved by Congress after PresidentBarack Obama was elected. Of the $27 bil-lion designated for highway projects underthe stimulus program, about $3 billion wentto bridge projects, Black said. States are looking for other means to raise
money for highway and bridge improve-ments, including more road tolls, dedicatinga portion of sales taxes to transportation andraising state gas taxes. Clibborn, theWashington state lawmaker, has proposed a10-cent gas hike to help pay for projects,though the effort has been held up by a dis-pute over how to rebuild the Columbia Riverbridge connecting Vancouver, Wash., andPortland, Ore. “We can’t possibly do it all in the next 10
years, but we’re going to do the first bite ofthe apple,’’ Clibborn said.
