U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) andArmy Corps of Engineers (Corps) opposing a proposedregulation that would alter the definition of “waters ofthe United States” and expand federal regulation tocover virtually any wet area in the country — includingroadside ditches. ARTBA explained that while current federal regula-

animated sports fans gather for heated showdowns on thebasketball court each season. An $85 million arena at TheUniversity of Mississippi will host spirited matchups, alongwith other events, when construction is completed by the endof 2015“The vision is for the Pavilion at Ole Miss to become a

multi-purpose arena to serve the entire campus,” said DannyBlanton, public relations director, University of Mississippi.“It will include a food court, academic areas and the basket-ball facility, and will be used not only for athletic events, butfor convocations, concerts and commencements. The 9,500seat arena will further champion the historic growth of ouruniversity.”The current Tad Smith Coliseum was built in 1966. Over

time, there have been issues with the building related to nor-mal wear and tear. School officials decided it was best toreplace the structure with a new, state-of-the-art SoutheasternConference facility. “It has caused a great deal of excitement for alumni, stu-

Bell Trucks Help Power Triton Sitework DevelopmentBy Eric OlsonCEG CORRESPONDENT

At the job site where land is being clearedto make way for a new-home developmentin Durham, Jason Thomason knows he canrest easy in regards to at least two of themachines he uses.Thomason is the equipment manager of

Triton Sitework Development in Raleigh.He is responsible for the machines his com-pany is employing to help develop Jordan atSouthpoint, a 100-acre-plus site that will oneday encompass more than 200 homes.Triton’s crews have already worked on

the development for more than eight monthsand expect to finish their work in early 2015. Dozers, excavators and other equipment

made by Komatsu, Hitachi, Volvo and JohnDeere are moving about 5,000 to 6,000 cu.yds. (3,823 to 4,587 cu m) of dirt and rockper day in an effort to smooth out the hillsand valleys on the land — but not without ahuge assist from the Bell articulated dumptrucks in Triton’s fleet.

Bell Trucks Earn a New FanThomason is a big believer in Bell trucks

and has been tremendously impressed bytheir performance and reliability.And he can thank Hills Machinery in

Raleigh for helping him decide on the righttruck for the kind of work that Triton does.“I’ll tell you, these Bell trucks have really

performed great,” Thomason said. “We havetwo that we are using on this project and sixin our fleet: five 30-ton trucks and one 35-ton. At Jordan at Southpoint, we are using apair of the 30-ton trucks.”He said that the latest generation Bell

B30E models that Triton is working with on

the Durham project utilize the environmen-tally-friendly Tier IV diesel-engine technol-ogy, which Thomason characterized as a“new step” for his firm.In addition, the new Bell trucks employ

diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), which isdesigned to help diesel engines reduce theirnitrogen oxide emissions and lower theircarbon footprint.“So far they have performed flawlessly,”

Thomason said. “You know, everyone is alittle bit hesitant about the final Tier IVengines and how they will do, but wehaven’t had any problems with them at all.Any issues that do arise, though, are takencare of quickly by Hills.”

Triton Benefits From Working With Hills

He has found that working with Larry

Hudson, his Hills Machinery account man-ager at the Raleigh location, has beenextremely rewarding for Triton.“Hills has just been outstanding,”

Thomason said. “There has not been onetime that I have called about a problem witha truck that Larry Hudson at Hills has notfollowed up with me to let me know what’sgoing on, whether they have got it fixed or

Triton Siteworks Development moves 5,000 to 6,000 cu. yds. (3,823 to 4,587 cu m) of material a day with artic trucks at theJordan at South Point development in Durham. Jason Thomason (L), fleet manager of Triton, and Larry Hudson of HillsMachinery discuss the job.

The fully loaded Bell B30E artic truck makes another run. Triton’s crews work on the Southpoint project.

Gregory Poole Obtains ISO 9001: 2008 Certification

By Brenda RuggieroCEG CORRESPONDENT

Gregory Poole Equipment Company in Raleigh, N.C.,recently celebrated the milestone of obtaining ISO9001:2008 certification of its S•O•S Fluid Analysis Lab pro-gram.“Gregory Poole wanted to make sure that there was a con-

sistency in its program that would transcend their dealershipand transfer to the Caterpillar network as a whole,” said BillWolf, S•O•S fluid analysis laboratory manager of the com-pany. He said that many customers have machines that are in

different areas and they travel around. With this new devel-opment, they can compare the data that they get from onedealership to another dealership.“ISO certification would allow us to obtain that,” Wolf

said. “It’s an international certification — it took about 18months to generate the documentation and define the pur-pose of what we’re actually doing to develop our qualitymanagement system.”Gregory Poole currently has more than half a million dol-

lars’ worth of equipment to analyze and interpret an averageof 500 samples each day, most completed within 24 hours ofreceipt.“The fluid analysis program was designed as a preventive

maintenance program,” Wolf said. “It’s designed to be usedconsistently throughout the lifetime of the machine, and ithelps us to determine and identify any issues that the oil itselfis telling us about the operation of the machine. The opera-tor may think that everything is running fine, but the oil istelling us something different, and if we have a good base-line of what the oil analysis is showing us when everythingis running normally, when there’s a deviation from that —the slightest deviation — we can detect that and then try todetermine what’s causing that deviation. Hopefully, if wefind something that is major, we catch it early on so that therepair is before failure, so the repair cost should be signifi-cantly less. Once we find something, we can just informthem that there’s an issue, so they can bring in another

machine to take over that workload while they pull this oneoff line to do whatever repair is necessary. So it gives themthat heads-up to allow for continued production, reduces thecost of the repair because we caught it early, and it willextend the lifetime of the machine.

“The numbers don’t mean a whole lot to the customers,”Wolf said. “We tell them what the numbers mean, why theywould be what they are and what we recommend as the nextstep. Ultimately, we want them to take this information andadd it to what they know about the machine, and then makethe ultimate decision. We just provide a recommendation

based on the analysis.”The analysis sampling interval varies with the compart-

ment. For engines, Gregory Poole recommends that cus-tomers pull a sample at every oil change interval. For thetransmissions or hydraulics of the gear compartments wherethe oil change interval is longer than the engine, they recom-mend a sample every 500 hours. These interval recommen-dations are the same for all pieces of equipment. Availableservices include oil, coolant and diesel fuel analysis. Wolf said that most contractors in the area now know the

VISTA Training Offers New PC-Based Bulldozer SimulatorVISTA Training, a leading provider of

training materials for earthmoving, excavat-ing and mining applications, has a new PC-based bulldozer simulator from Simlog.

This instructionally-designed simulationsoftware puts trainees at the controls of amedium-sized bulldozer at work in a typicalconstruction site. Seven simulation modulesare structured to train entry-level operatorson basic operation and core skills. Lessonsbegin with controls familiarization andprogress to more complex tasks, includingbulldozer positioning, using the blade tocontrol the path of a boulder, using the bladeto backfill a trench, slot dozing and spread-ing.

“This new dozer simulator is the perfectcomplement to VISTA’s dozer training pro-grams,” said VISTA Training President RickLongstaff. “By using them together, fleetowners can provide comprehensive yet cost-effective training to their operator candi-dates.”

Replica controls are available for the bull-dozer simulator. They offer a realistic train-ing experience and can be ordered withtabletop mounting brackets. For added real-ism, a bulldozer operator chair also is avail-able with an authentic operator seat andindustrial controllers mounted on consoles

for the left and right hands. The operatorchair can be easily reconfigured for use withother Simlog simulators.

The operation of the bulldozer simulatorcan be customized to simulate the behaviorof a wide variety of machines. For example,it can be configured to use separate foot ped-als for the decelerator and brake, or just a

single pedal that combines both functions.Blade speed also can be adjusted.

As trainees perform tasks in the simulator,the software records data about key per-formance indicators that measure howquickly and carefully the simulated work isperformed. The simulator tracks more than20 performance indicators, including task

execution time, machine collisions and crite-ria related to how well a trench is excavatedand backfilled. This data can be used to pro-vide diagnostic coaching to trainees, to helpthem overcome weak spots in their skills.

The bulldozer is the latest in a line-up of11 heavy equipment simulators.

About VISTA TrainingVISTA Training Inc., founded in 1991,

provides training solutions for peopleinvolved in earthmoving, excavating andmining applications. More than 10,000 cus-tomers use VISTA products and services toprovide equipment safety, skills and produc-tivity training to employees. Headquarteredin Waterford, Wisc., with a Canadian branchnear the oil sands mining operations ofnorthern Alberta, Canada, VISTA providesthe mining and construction industries with avariety of computer-based training modules,videos, DVDs and instructor kits, on-siteequipment operator training and cost effec-tive, PC-based equipment simulators sup-plied by Simlog.

Founder Reflects on the Early Years of National Attachments

All of Scott Guimond’s life he has beenaround construction equipment. For parts ofthe 1970s he worked as a carpenter for amajor construction firm in Maine calledCianbro. In the early 1980s he had started hisown landscaping and grounds maintenancecompany.

In 1984, a visit to Thompson Machine, alocal construction equipment dealership inMaine, brought him a new tractor, a new jobas a sales representative and, eventually, theidea for a new business.

While enjoying success selling heavyequipment, including winning several per-formance awards and trips (one to Hawaiifor being the top Mitsubishi performer in thecountry) Guimond noticed that there was anincrease in interest from his customers aboutthe attachments that could be used with theequipment that he was selling. People oftenasked where they could purchase a thumb,tilting ditching bucket, couplers and itemslike hydraulic breakers, he recalled.

The attachments business was in its infan-cy; the concept of a third valve on an exca-vator was virtually unheard of. While equip-ment dealerships were focused on sellingmachinery, there was not a lot of focus orattention paid to the attachments that wentwith that equipment. In Europe and Japanthe concept that excavators should be multi-functional was just starting to catch on.

Guimond identified that the potential forgrowth in the attachments industry wasextraordinary and decided to start a compa-ny focusing on that area.

A Business Is Born“I knew that the demand was there and I

felt that if I had focused 100 percent of myattention to the attachments industry there

was endless potential,” Guimond said. “Iimmediately went to work creating allianceswith construction equipment attachmentmanufactures that I felt I could do a good jobrepresenting. One company in particular thatwas headquartered in Toronto, Canada,caught my attention.”

That company was Nye ManufacturingLimited.

Well-known in Canada for building someof the most rugged, overbuilt constructionequipment attachments, Nye had no pres-ence in the United States.

“I was absolutely blown away by what Isaw at the factory in Canada,” Guimondsaid. “The attachments they were manufac-

turing were of extreme quality. The visualimpact of each piece screamed rugged. Eachand every piece was individually built toorder. Each one was a work of art.”

The product offerings produced by Nyewere exactly the items that Guimond waslooking for that included buckets, grapples,pulverizers, thumbs and coupling systems.

Guimond worked out an agreement withJack Nye, president of Nye Manufacturing.In exchange for making NationalAttachments its exclusive distributor in theUnited States, Guimond would make Nye ahousehold name among U.S. constructionfirms, equipment dealers, recyclers anddemolition professionals.

Guimond’s first line of attack with Nyeand National Attachments was to get hisproduct in front of local major constructioncompanies in Maine, some of which he hadalready established relationships with.Companies like Cianbro, FoglioIncorporated, Shaw Brothers and GrondinConstruction were soon regularly equippingtheir excavators and loaders with attach-ments purchased from NationalAttachments.

Some of these attachments are still beingused by these companies and have actuallyoutlasted the original carriers five-fold.

(L-R) are Scott Guimond, president National Attachments; Gabe Guimond, vice pres-ident of sales; Scott Guimond II, vicepresident of procurement; and KathyGuimond, CFO.

Nye grapples are now used in the most extreme conditions from coast-to-coast inthe United States.

Scott Guimond looks on as Nye attachments help out at Ground Zero.

Jack Nye, president of NyeManufacturing Limited, helps demon-strate the size of a bucket.

The world-famous JCB GT has been crowned the fastestbackhoe loader on earth after reaching speeds of more than70 mph in Australia.The JCB GT, originally designed to perform high-speed

wheelies at racing events, made the attempt in front ofindependent record officials in Bathurst, Australia, nearSydney. Guinness World Records confirmed that the pow-erful JCB GT was officially the fastest backhoe loader inthe world with a speed of 72.58 mph (116.82 kmh). TheGT has achieved even faster undocumented speeds of 90 to100 mph (144.84 to 160.9 kmh) when operated in theUnited States, thus earning its nickname, “The 100-mphBackhoe.”To celebrate the win, the JCB GT went on a tour of

Sydney and took a bow for photographers in front of otherworld-famous icons — the Opera House and HarbourBridge.The latest record is not the only one that JCB’s backhoe

holds; the machine has been the world’s top-selling backhoeloader for 14 consecutive years. Since inventing the machinein 1953, the company has manufactured more than half amillion backhoes. Fab Carrettin, managing director of JCB Pacific, said,

“The JCB GT has always been regarded as the fastest back-hoe around and now it’s official. It’s fantastic to haveachieved this record, which underlines the world-class engi-neering, power and performance our customers demandfrom the JCB backhoe.”Glenn McLeod, backhoe product manager of JCB dealer

JCB Construction Equipment Australia (CEA), added, “The

72.58 mph we achieved was actuallyhigher than the 68.35 mph benchmark setfor us by the Guinness World Records.We couldn’t be happier with the results.”JCB demonstration driver Matthew

Lucas — nicknamed “The Dig” duringthe attempt — was the man who steeredthe JCB GT to its world record title.Lucas of Werrington, Stoke-on-Trent,Staffordshire, UK, said, “It was great tobe involved in such an exciting projectand a real honor to be behind the wheelwhen we achieved the record.”When the JCB GT first made its debut

in 1988, it was made of fiberglass and aluminum and pow-ered by a Chevy V8 engine. It was driven by long-servingemployee Malcolm Grindey, who spent two years at thewheel of the JCB GT, demonstrating its capabilities all overthe world, including an appearance at the Formula OneAustralian Grand Prix in 1990.Grindey of Marston Montgomery, near Rocester, said, “I

have very fond memories of putting the JCB GT through itspaces in the Australian Grand Prix, so it’s great news that it’ssecured the title as the world’s fastest digger on Australian

soil nearly 25 years later.”Normally based at JCB’s headquarters

in Staffordshire, UK, the latest JCB GThas a loader and digger end made com-pletely out of aluminum. It went toAustralia to perform at car events, includ-ing the Deni Ute Muster in Deniliquin,NSW and the Supercheap Auto Bathurst1000 in Bathurst, NSW. With a light-weight steel chassis and JCB Fastractractor rear axle, the JCB GT was origi-nally designed to do wheelies to thrillcrowds at motor racing drag strips in theUSA.For more information, visit

Officials in S.C. Counties Oppose Idea of Road TransfersBy Seanna AdcoxASSOCIATED PRESS

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) Lawmakers’efforts to fund road and bridge work in SouthCarolina must include decreasing the sys-tem’s size, the chairman of the House com-mittee crafting that chamber’s proposal saidNov. 18. South Carolina’s highway system of

41,400 mi. is the nation’s fourth largest. Halfare secondary roads not eligible for federalfunding. Rep. Gary Simrill, the panel’s chairman,

said some of those roads need to be turnedover to local governments. “Before we get to funding, we need to

deal with this first,’’ said Simrill, R-RockHill. “If we just add more money to an inef-ficient system, we’re doing taxpayers aninjustice.’’ He suggests providing counties a larger

share of gas tax money to pay for road main-tenance. But counties are opposed to any road

transfers, an idea that’s circulated unsuccess-fully for years. History shows the Legislature doesn’t fol-

low through with promised funding, andcounties lack the money to take on more

miles to maintain, said Robert Croom, anattorney with the South Carolina Associationof Counties. The state budget has not fullyfunded aid to local governments, as calledfor by a formula in state law, since 2008. Asked if local officials have no trust in

state government, Croom responded,“I can speak to almost no formulathat’s held up over time.’’ Local governments already are

responsible for additional miles ofroadway added by development, asthe DOT by policy won’t accept anymore. But the ability for counties toraise local property taxes to pay for islimited by state law, he said. Simrill insists lawmakers can

reach consensus with local officialsto take control of roads that, if theyremain with the state, “in a hundredyears aren’t going to get repaved.’’Once the state Department of Transportationdetermines which secondary roads are ofstate importance, lawmakers can set a goalfor the number of miles to divest, Simrillsaid. He noted South Carolina acquired the vast

number of short, limited-traffic roads before1975, when senators controlled their coun-ty’s funding, and being responsible for

paving constituents’ roads helped them getre-elected. “I live on one. It’s a dead-end road that

serves 50 people,’’ said Rep. WestonNewton, R-Bluffton. “I understand it’s astate road, but I don’t think it should be.’’

The state DOT has said it needs an addi-tional $1.5 billion yearly just to bring roadsto “good’’ condition within 20 years. ButGov. Nikki Haley has pledged to veto anyincrease in the state gas tax, unchanged at 16cents per gallon since 1987. An additionalpenny would raise about $34 million,according to the state Revenue and FiscalAffairs Office.

Simrill said lawmakers need to get cre-ative because there’s not enough support fora gas tax increase to override a veto. He also called it a source of diminishing

returns. Due to vehicles’ increased fuel efficiency,

the state is expected to collect lessfrom the tax over time, as construc-tion costs rise. According to statefinancial advisers, collections willdrop by roughly $60 million over thenext 25 years. Simrill said funding options

include asking voters in the 2016general election if they supportadding a penny to the state sales taxto pay for roadwork. That wouldraise an additional $643 million,according to the financial advisers. Simrill said another option could

be eliminating the state gas tax andinstead applying the state sales tax to gas. He asked the revenue office to look into

an “inverted’’ sales tax on gas to protect con-sumers, in which the tax would decreasewhen gas prices increase and rise when theprices dip.

Volvo CE Achieves I Make America Gold Status, Again Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE)

has once again joined the elite ranks of 14 com-panies achieving gold-level status for the thirdyear in a row in I Make America’s AEMAdvocates program. The Association of Equipment

Manufacturers (AEM) launched the campaignin 2010 to improve American manufacturingpolicies, create more jobs in the United Statesand keep the U.S. economy competitive withother countries. AEM honored Volvo CE duringa special awards ceremony on Nov. 13 in NapaValley, Calif.“I want to congratulate Volvo CE for again

achieving gold-level status in our I MakeAmerica program, representing their continuedcommitment to advancing pro-manufacturingpolicies in the United States,” said DennisSlater, AEM president. “We were thrilled thatVolvo CE could host our I Make AmericaHarley Tour in Shippensburg, Pa., this past summer at theopening of its new customer center. I look forward to con-tinuing to work with Volvo CE to help grow AEM’s advoca-cy efforts.”Volvo CE is committed to supporting industry-wide ini-

tiatives that bring growth, stability and jobs to the country. InJune, the company inaugurated its new North AmericanCustomer Center and confirmed its long-term commitmentto the North American market. During the event, Volvo CEalso hosted the I Make America Harley tour to raise aware-

ness about the grassroots campaign. “We appreciate AEM taking the lead on industry issues

and bringing industry giants together to push the governmentfor a robust, long-term highway trust fund to meet America’sinfrastructure needs,” said Göran Lindgren, president &CEO Volvo CE North America. “A robust highway programis critical to the nation’s place in the world and deeplyimpacts economic productivity and quality of life. For everydollar invested in road improvement, there is an average ben-efit of $5 in the form of lower vehicle maintenance costs,

fewer traffic delays and less fuel con-sumption.”As part of the Volvo Group, Volvo CE

supports the reauthorization of the currentsurface transportation law, known as theMoving Ahead for Progress in the 21stCentury legislation, or MAP-21. “Our nation’s roads and bridges are

rapidly deteriorating, and the necessaryrevenue to simply maintain the status quois drying up as state and local govern-ments grapple with dwindling budgets,”Lindgren said. “Facing increasingly stiffglobal competition, the nation cannotafford to under-invest in such a criticalcomponent of our economic engine.”I Make America gold-level supporters

are an important group of companies thathave achieved participation benchmarksmarking them as industry leaders.

Benchmarks include significant employee involvement; out-reach to their state, local and federal legislators; and promot-ing campaign sign-ups at trade shows and with allied tradeassociations.

AEM Announces 2014 Inductees Into Its Hall of Fame The Association of Equipment

Manufacturers (AEM) announced the 2014inductees into the AEM Hall of Fame, whichrecognizes and celebrates outstanding indi-viduals in the off-road equipment industry,and their legacy of innovation, service andleadership.

Their vision and hard work have beencritical to advancing global economic andsocial prosperity; their legacy strengthenscontinued industry contributions to improv-ing our quality of life, and serves as an inspi-ration for tomorrow’s leaders.

The 2014 inductees into the AEM Hallof Fame are:

• E.G. Melroe & the Melroe Family,Melroe Manufacturing & Bobcat Company

• Agustin “Gus” Ramirez, HUSCOInternational

• Robert J. Ratliff, AGCO Corporation• John D. West, The Manitowoc

Company• Rollin Henry White, Cleveland Tractor

Company (Cletrac)AEM Hall of Fame inductees have been

evaluated by an independent panel of indus-try experts on five criteria that are vital to thehealth of the off-road equipment manufac-turing industry: 1) innovation, 2) industrycontributions, 3) leadership, 4) corporate cit-izenship/social responsibility and 5) sustain-ability.

About the 2014 Hall of Fame Inductees

Below are summaries for each of the 2014honorees with some of the reasons they wereselected for induction.

E.G. Melroe & the Melroe Family(Melroe Manufacturing & BobcatCompany)

The Melroe family story is one of innova-tion and industry firsts in product design,technology and safety. Patriarch E.G.Melroe designed (and patented in 1940) awindrow pickup that lifted windrowed graininto the combine. He also invented a springtooth harrow for seedbed preparation andweeding row crops.

This can-do spirit extended to E.G.’s fam-ily and the Melroe Manufacturing Co.Despite performance and durability issues,customer demand kept the Melroes fromstopping production of their first skid steerloader. They refined it, with the Bobcatbrand introduced in 1962. The four-wheel-drive skid steer concept became a model forother brands.

Introduction of a hydrostatic drive systemincreased skid steer pushing power andbecame the industry standard in just over adecade. Introduction of a lever-actuatedattachment mounting system — in place ofpin-on mounting — allowed operators toeasily switch attachments throughout the

workday for greater efficiency and wasadopted as the worldwide ISO standard. Thecompany pioneered use of an overheadguard (ROPS), now standard equipment onall compact loaders.

Compact loaders (four-wheel-drive skidsteer and compact track) now represent thelargest volume category in the mobile, off-road equipment industry.

The company that now employs 2,000people has always called Gwinner home,exerting a huge positive economic impact onthe entire state of North Dakota. In 2014Bobcat built its one-millionth loader.

Inducted with E.G. Melroe are his sons:Les, Cliff, Roger and Irving; nephewSylvan; and son-in-law Eugene Dahl.

Agustin ‘Gus’ Ramirez (HUSCOInternational)

Agustin “Gus” Ramirez has a deep con-viction that technical innovation must enablesignificant value to the ultimate end-user.HUSCO has been granted 107 U.S. patentssince Ramirez took the helm in 1983, withhis conviction leading the company to devel-op advanced hydraulic systems that enablesuperior safety, controllability and fuel effi-ciency for equipment operators. Often, thesetechnical advances were implemented with-out adding significant cost to the machinedue to more cost-effective system designs.

Ramirez’s technical vision deployed atHUSCO also contributed to the wave ofhydraulically enabled innovation that issweeping the mobile equipment market. Butperhaps his most lasting legacy is advancinghydraulics system research and developmentin the United States: he funded the HUSCOChair of Fluid Power at Georgia State Tech,establishing hydraulics as a key research pri-ority at one of America’s top engineeringschools. The foundation provides approxi-mately 120 university scholarships eachyear, many to minority students, for pursuitof engineering degrees.

Ramirez also has invested millions of dol-lars to reform urban K-12 education in hishometown of Milwaukee. He became sopassionate about urban education that hehelped found Schools That Can Milwaukee,an organization focused on transformingoutcomes in urban education.

Ramirez has received many honors andawards including the Georgia TechDistinguished Alumni award, Entrepreneurof the Year, Hispanic Business Leader of theYear, and the Friedlander/Ladky Award forPhilanthropic Leadership. Ramirez serves asa director for numerous organizations,including past chair of the National FluidPower Association.

Robert J. Ratliff (AGCO Corporation)Robert J. Ratliff turned a struggling $200-

million farm equipment business into amajor, global manufacturer of some of the

most innovative and productive agriculturalequipment. With a vision to provide a worldof solutions for growing needs of the farmindustry worldwide, between 1990 and 2005Ratliff brought more than 20 agriculturalmachinery companies under the AGCOumbrella. Today, the company, headquar-tered in Duluth, Ga., sells its products inmore than 140 countries.

Under Ratliff’s leadership, the companyblended various business practices and cul-tures. He created an atmosphere that moti-vated employees to achieve a mutuallydesirable goal — the vision of multiplebrands operating under the AGCO umbrel-la. Employees recount it was not uncom-mon for Ratliff to visit departments, chat-ting with employees and making it knownhe was interested in them and their work.His hands-on leadership style extended tocompany dealers. Recognizing their strate-gic importance, Ratliff institutionalized thepractice of soliciting feedback, and thatsenior management was only a phone callaway.

Ratliff has given back to the industry: heis a life honorary director of the Associationof Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) and hefulfilled numerous leadership roles for theNational Association of Manufacturers(NAM), including chair of NAM’sManufacturing Institute, which focuses onmanufacturing revival and education.

To advance education, the Robert J.Ratliff Baltimore Polytechnic InstituteIncentive Awards Fund was established tofund annual student scholarships through theUniversity of Maryland Incentive AwardsProgram. Ratliff is among a select group rec-ognized as program “visionaries.”

John D. West (The ManitowocCompany)

With John D. West’s leadership and pushfor innovation, The Manitowoc Companybrought many technological advancementsto market that set new lifting industry stan-dards.

Under West, Manitowoc was the first touse T-1 high-strength steel in booms, designa controlled torque converter for variouscrane uses, and patent the RINGER conceptwhich doubled crane capacity. Theseimprovements made cranes easier to control,saved time and money for construction com-panies, and led to a safer job site.

West worked his way up the organizationfrom shop floor to boardroom and wasknown for his common-touch managementstyle. He foresaw market globalization andexpanded the company overseas (todaymore than half of corporate revenue comesfrom non-U.S. markets), enablingManitowoc to expand into a multi-brandoperation and diversify offerings.� �

West was a man of particularly strong

ethics who told his employees, “There isnever a right way to do the wrong thing.” Heimplemented the company’s first profit-shar-ing program for employees. He was a quietphilanthropist who had a positive and lastingeffect on his community, including establish-ment of a philanthropic organization forManitowoc County, a botanical garden, andsupport for the arts. Among his honors are aDistinguished Service Citation from theUniversity of Wisconsin College ofEngineering.

Efficiency and sustainability became keypriorities for Manitowoc during West’s timeat the helm. He led a push to conserve water,lessen pollution, improve air quality and cutproduction overruns that led to materialwaste.

Rollin Henry White (ClevelandTractor Company [Cletrac])

Although Rollin Henry White’s inven-tions in crawler tractor design date back tothe beginning of the 20th century, his con-tributions are still widely used by manufac-turers today. Of White’s 100 patents, hisinvention of controlled differential steeringwas the most significant, making tractorsstronger, safer and more maneuverable.This invention was adopted by the U.S.Army for use in all its tanks during WWII,making them more agile and easier to oper-ate than those from other countries.

A mechanical and electrical engineeringgraduate of Cornell University, White estab-lished the Cleveland Tractor Company(Cletrac) in 1916, which grew to becomeone of the largest crawler tractor manufac-turers in the 1920s and 30s. The companyled the industry in number of new productsand sales volume during much of this time.Cletrac and its successor the OliverCorporation manufactured crawler tractorsuntil 1965.

Although Cletrac and Oliver are nolonger in business, concepts developed byWhite are still in use. In addition to con-trolled differential steering, these includehigh-speed rubber tracks, continuous under-carriage lubrication, and streamlinedcrawler tractor styling. Under White,Cletrac was one of the first U.S. tractormanufacturers to market overseas (in the1920s).

White fostered a company atmosphere ofmutual respect and support to help employ-ees improve their livelihoods. For example,White would underwrite loans for thosewishing to establish Cletrac dealerships.White also was a recognized civic andindustry leader in Cleveland.

JLG Boom Lifts Help Rebuild World Trade Center ComplexBy Bill DoveySPECIAL TO CEG

New Yorkers paused quietly at8:46 and 9:03 a.m. and steel workerswaited. The names of nearly 3,000victims were read aloud andmachines sat silent. By late morningon Sept. 11 most of this year’s obser-vances for the anniversary of the 9/11terror attacks had concluded in lowerManhattan. Soon after, three JLG 1850SJ ultra

booms were fully extended to 185 ft.(53 m) and steel workers resumedtheir task of rebuilding the WorldTrade Center site that was devastatedmore than a decade earlier. The1850SJ booms are not the only JLGmachines to work on this historic site— just the latest. JLG’s American-built boom lifts and scissor lifts havebeen working on the rebirth of thislandmark site since the FreedomTower first began taking shape in2007.

The Road to RecoveryThe locations of the 9/11 terror

attacks in Shanksville, Pa.,Washington, D.C., and New YorkCity have, for many, become hallowedground. And rightly so. But New York’ssite was — and is — different. The sizeand scope of the disaster made it so. Thisdifference has made rebuilding the WorldTrade Center (WTC) structures a challengeunlike any other. The idea of rebuilding onthe site offended some while others viewedit as a means of healing. The reconstructiontimeline was further complicated by jointownerships, leasing partners and govern-ment intervention.Thirteen years later, many of the build-

ings are open or are opening soon, but the16-acre complex is far from complete.Today, steel workers are using the 1850SJbooms to erect the 114 spikes that adornthe top of the “Oculus,” the above-groundportion of the site’s transportation hub. Skanska won the $204 million contract

to build the hub from the Port Authority ofNew York and New Jersey back in 2011.Skanska Koch, an operating unit ofSkanska USA Civil, is doing the actualconstruction. Designed by internationallyacclaimed architect Santiago Calatrava,the building features a distinctive, andsomewhat controversial, wing-like appear-ance.Calatrava’s original soaring spike design has been scaled

back because of security issues. The design was further mod-ified to eliminate the opening and closing roof mechanismbecause of budget and space constraints. While the 1850SJunits work above the roofline, other JLG booms work on the

façade and other internal and external features in a rush tocomplete the 330-ft. (100.6 m) long building that is twoyears and nearly $2 billion over budget.The transportation hub, located between WTC towers 2

and 3, is bounded by Greenwich, Fulton and Church streets.

It comprises a train station with a largeand open mezzanine under the NationalSeptember 11 Memorial plaza. Whencompleted, the station will connect theNew Jersey’s PATH train system to 11lines in New York City’s subway system,the Battery Park City Ferry terminal, andseveral buildings in the WTC complex. Itwill serve more than 200,000 commutersand thousands of tourists and visitors whotravel daily to lower Manhattan.The hub encompasses 800,000 sq. ft.

under one roof — nearly the same squarefootage as New York’s famed GrandCentral Station. It will feature retail shop-ping and restaurants. On completion, thestructure will have consumed more than22,000 tons of specially designed structur-al steel. The site is now scheduled to openon Dec. 17, 2015.

Reaching Out From the AshesFrom the beginning, JLG boom lifts

have been an integral part of the resurrec-tion of virtually every part of the WTCcomplex, including the memorial, themuseum and the new WTC buildings.The most visible of the office buildings isthe Freedom Tower, now called OneWorld Trade Center. The 104-story tower

is located just north of the original North Tower (1 WorldTrade Center), where the original 6 WTC building oncestood.

The 1850SJ booms are not the only JLG machines to work on this historic site — just thelatest. JLG’s American-built boom lifts and scissor lifts have been working on the rebirthof this landmark site since the Freedom Tower first began taking shape in 2007.

Work on the World Trade Center site continues more than a decade after the devastating attacks.

ICUEE ’15 to Offer Enhanced Experience in LouisvilleThe Demo Expo 2015 will offer attendees more product

demonstration opportunities and more new products to see,plus new navigation and transportation features to enhancetheir show experience.The next ICUEE, International Construction and Utility

Equipment Exposition, will be held Sept. 29 to Oct. 1,2015, at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville, Ky. ICUEE 2015 is expected to be the largest ever in terms

of number of exhibitors and products on display.“Besides the test-drives, one of the best things about

ICUEE, attendees tell us, is the sheer number of suppliersand new products, with 850-plus exhibitors and an exhibitfootprint of 20 football fields,” said Show Director SaraTruesdale Mooney.Approximately 98 percent of attendees at the last ICUEE

said the show value was good to excellent, according toshow organizers.“ICUEE is always looking for better ways to help atten-

dees more easily find suppliers, get from point A to pointB, and re-charge after shopping hundreds of new productsand test-driving equipment. Our customer research fromthe 2013 show highlighted several ways we could ramp upthe convenience,” Mooney added.

Making the Attendee Experience Even BetterA new program approved by the ICUEE 2015 manage-

ment committee will deliver improved show navigation,transportation and other new features:• Better defined product concentration areas, and, for the

first time, indoor exhibits organized by product categories• New “Demo Express” direct shuttles to outdoor Lots K

and L from indoor exhibits, in addition to enhanced intra-show trams and new golf-cart shuttles• A new “Fuel Station” in Area Q — a place to sit down,

relax and network with others, with Wi-Fi and charging sta-tions, beverages, and show information• Additional seating and restrooms throughout the show• Additional information booths and helpful staff sta-

tioned throughout the show to assist attendees• Improved show maps, distributed pre-show and on siteAttendees also will find focused exhibit pavilions for

fleet management, safety, technology and green utilityproducts, and a hands-on ride and drive test track. They canalso take advantage of expert education programs co-locat-ed with ICUEE and developed by leading industry organi-zations.

ICUEE Honored by Trade Show Industry With Gold 100 AwardsThe biennial ICUEE exhibition captured top honors in

Trade Show Executive (TSE) magazine’s Gold 100 list for2013 shows: it ranked number-one for biennial shows, andnumber-two among all exhibitions held in the United Stateslast year. TSE annually recognizes the top U.S. trade showsacross all industries by exhibit space size.The magazine cited ICUEE’s “emphasis on test drives

and ‘hands on’ experience” as a key factor that “helpedbring in a high percentage of qualified buyers, and good

post-show reviews from exhibitors and attendees alike.”TSE also noted that “a packed program included a focus onnew products along with the popular indoor ‘demo stage’which helped draw a crowd.”ICUEE — The Demo Expo covers 25 acres of indoor

and outdoor exhibit space, and is the leading event for util-

ities and contractors featuring live demonstrations and bestpractices for utility construction, maintenance and rehabil-itation projects.

Athletic Director Says Project to Enrich Campus Experience dents and fans,” said Blanton. “This con-struction embodies the vision of creating afront door along All-American Drive thatwould be a capstone for Ole Miss Athletics.Located in the heart of campus, the Pavilionat Ole Miss will be the center point for manymemorable campus events for years tocome.”At the ceremonial groundbreaking, Ole

Miss athletic director Ross Bjork said theproject would enrich the on campus experi-ence. “Our students, faculty, staff, alumni, fam-

ily, friends and visitors love being on thiscampus, and so our vision was to create afront door along All-American Drive thatwould be a capstone for Ole Miss Athletics.It’s a destination point for many things thatcan happen on this campus, and it’s alsoclose to the heart of the campus. ThePavilion at Ole Miss will be a reflection of itsname as a large building used for publicexhibit and sporting events for the Ole Missfamily.” “From a game day experience standpoint

and all the things that you are asking fromdonors, we finally have the opportunity toprovide them something that equates to theother sports on this campus,” said AndyKennedy, men’s basketball head coach.“From a recruiting standpoint, it gives us theopportunity to say, ‘You have everythingyou need to be successful as it relates to bas-ketball.’ ”Birmingham, Ala. based B.L. Harbert is

overseeing construction on the new arena,while Precision Engineering Corporation isthe civil engineering firm of record. “We designed all vehicular access, storm

water collection systems, sanitary sewer col-lection systems and water distribution sys-tems as they related to the site work for thearena and garage,” said Paul Koshenina,Precision Engineering president and leaddesigner on the project. “We also assistedwith design of all pedestrian areas and walk-ways for the garage and arena. Our firmdesigned the realignment of Hill Drive,which was directly affected by the arenaconstruction.“This project is in the heart of Ole Miss,

and the construction affects traffic patternsthroughout campus. Hill Drive, which is oneof the primary arteries feeding into campus,was located directly below the proposedfootprint of the arena, which required arealignment of almost 1,200 feet of roadwaywith associated parking and utilities. Thiswas accomplished concurrently with thegarage construction and early phases of thearena construction. This realignment had tooccur while school was in session, whichrequired careful planning between contrac-tors, architects, engineers, University of

Mississippi facilities planning and physicalplant departments.”The garage and arena construction

required crews to remove more than 250,000cu. yds. (191,138 cu m) of soil from thefootprint of the structures. The excess soilwas exported for use in a parking project oncampus, a dual lane roundabout constructedby MDOT adjacent to campus and stock-

piled for future runway extensions at theOxford-University Airport.“We have been involved with the plan-

ning and design since mid-2013 when westarted the topographic survey of the overallproject area,” Koshenina said. “Our firmwill be involved throughout the process untilproject closeout.”Precision Engineering was engaged early

in the design process to provide a topo-graphic survey and utility survey of theentire project area bounded by ManningWay to the south, All American Drive to thenorth, Vaught-Hemingway Stadium to theeast and Tad Smith Coliseum to the west. “Our crews utilized state-of-the-art GPS

and data collection systems to gather theinformation required for the survey. Thefieldwork for the survey took approximatelyfour weeks, with approximately one week ofoffice time spent compiling data and draftingthe final survey. We coordinated closelywith university's physical plant departmentemployees, who are invaluable in helping todetermine the location of underground utili-ties, some of which date back to the 1950sand earlier.”Foundation work and construction of con-

crete walls is under way on the arena, withexcavation and auger cast pile work alreadycompleted. Currently, a 777 crane is beingutilized, along with other machinery.Materials on the project include concrete,steel, structural precast, architectural precast,brick and a metal roof.Completing the arena is one chief concern

for crews, along with the logistics of work-ing on a tight site in the middle of campuswith a main drive splitting the project. Steelfabrication also is a challenge.W. G. Yates & Sons Construction Co. Inc.

is at work on the five-level parking garage.According to Yates & Sons vice presidentMike Stinson, work began in December2013, and should be substantially completed

Volvo Helps Charlotte Go RacingBuilt more than half a century ago on the site of a Civil

War-era plantation, the Charlotte Motor Speedway hasbecome the ultimate sanctuary for motorsports entertainmentin North America, evolving into “The Greatest Place to Seethe Race.”The site hosts all major NASCAR events every year,

including the NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race, the Coca-Cola600 and the Bank of America 500, as well as more than threedozen other events for automotive and motorsports enthusi-asts. Close to 90 percent of all NASCAR team shops arebased in the surrounding area and NASCAR has its head-quarters and museum in nearby Charlotte.The sprawling 2,400-acre Charlotte Motor Speedway

campus in Concord, N.C., sports three major tracks — the1.5 mi. (2.5 km) asphalt superspeedway, originally built in1959, a quarter-mile (.4 km) clay oval for dirt track racing;and zMAX Dragway, the first quarter-mile, four-lane, all-concrete drag strip in the United States. The campus alsoincludes miles of access roads that connect the tracks,garages, parking lots, campgrounds and supporting utilities,which require regular maintenance.

Petrol Head Heaven“In recent years the Speedway has expanded its event

offerings to become a true vacation destination for racingenthusiasts,” said Roger Neale, vice president of operationsand development of Charlotte Motor Speedway. “For theirdurability and reliability — those Volvo machines stand tall.” Neale counts on a crew of 50 employees and a fleet that

includes five Volvo CE machines to maintain and repair thefacilities.Danny Furr, an operator with 14 years of experience at the

track, has used many brands of backhoe loaders but nowprefers the smooth controls and power of Volvo’s backhoeloader, as well as the comforts of the cab unit, including airconditioning — an essential feature in the swelteringCarolina summers.“In one machine I can lift, dig and haul, and do all of this

very quickly without any loss of speed or power,” said Furr.“The Volvo allows me to get in, get the job done and moveon to the next project.”Two Volvo backhoes, a BL60B and BL70B, are the work-

horses of the track, and are called upon to add crushed aggre-gate to roads, dig storm water trenches, remove fallen trees

and even clear tons of snow.

Active DutyTo keep the site grounds impeccably manicured year-

round, other Volvo mainstays are called into active duty. ASD100 soil compactor sees on and off-track action, as ithelps maintain the solid clay base off the dirt track and inbuilding new access roads throughout the campus.An L45F compact wheel loader, on the other hand, is a

jack-of-all-trades. During the Coca-Cola 600 race overMemorial Day, which drew more than 100,000 fans to thetrack and was viewed on television by 6.5 million people, itcould be seen moving K-wall barriers from the front straight-away to a stage setup. It also was on call to assist tow trucksthat lacked the muscle to haul a disabled car from the track.General maintenance gets an assist from a Volvo MC115C

skid steer loader, but it also has a unique role — removingrubber build-up from the NHRA-sanctioned drag strip withan 18-in. (45.7 cm) scraper on the bucket. The drag stripitself was constructed in 2008 using a dozen Volvo A30Dand A40 articulated haulers, Volvo EC210 and EC700crawler excavators and a Volvo L110E wheel loader.It’s not just its machines that are busy at the track — since

2009, Volvo CE has hosted more than 750 customers anddealers at major NASCAR events at the Charlotte MotorSpeedway.

Parking Garage Construction Involves Mass Excavationby the end of the year. The garage will offer810 spaces.

“The area where the parking structure is,was a football practice field and parking lotthat required demolition, mass excavationand shoring walls to be constructed betweenthe parking garage and the football stadi-um,” said Stinson.

The project calls for masonry brick onprecast, guardrails, elevator installation, top-ping slabs on precast, waterproofing, com-pletion of site retaining walls, rigid pavingand sidewalks, stairwells, plumbing drainsand lighting for the structure. The demolitionof existing parking lots has already beencompleted, along with fencing and under-ground utilities.

Equipment being used includes excava-tors, dump trucks, front end loaders, back-hoes, dozers, skid steers, auger cast pilingequipment, cast in place wall forming sys-tems, cranes, boom lifts, light plant equip-ment, air compressors, generators and acrane for precast erection, etc. Auger cast pil-ings, concrete, structural steel, railings,waterproofing, block, brick and masonryaccessories are among the materials requiredfor the job.

“The most time consuming parts of theparking garage construction have involvedthe mass excavation, pilings and precast,”said Stinson. “These are the largest singlecomponents of the structure.”

Site constraints, specifically, being locatedon all sides by other operations, has been an

issue, along with inclement conditions.“Weather has been a factor during con-

struction,” said Stinson. “The project startedin December, with earthwork and pilings.During the project, crews have workedseven days per week and two shifts. When aweather event occurs, it affects not only onework period but two, and with workingseven days a week, there is not time to bemade up.”

Kansas City, Mo., based AECOM, knownfor its high-performance arena design and aglobal provider of architecture, engineeringand construction services, was selected asarchitect for the project. Jon Niemuth, AIA,the director of AECOM Sports, said theschool’s facilities and venues were in need oforganization. Enhancing the universitybrand also was key.

“The campus experience of Ole Miss isunique across the collegiate landscape, andour charge from the school was to make surethe project enhanced and reinforced this.Given the dynamics of the university’s mas-ter plan for growth, traffic, student life andpedestrian movement, we worked on con-solidation of uses and a focusing of the gameday energy of both basketball and football.By siting the Pavilion adjacent to Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, we were able to sharehospitality amenities and improve the arrivalexperience for all spectators.

“For the design of the Pavilion, it wasimportant that key elements large and smallall reflected the identity of Ole Miss athleticsand the larger university,” Niemuth said.

“From the signature red brick, red roof andwhite columns that identify the main entrylobby, our client team was constantlyreviewing and evaluating the project tomake sure it met or exceeded the standardsof Ole Miss. The site for the project is real-ly at the heart of campus and at the cross-roads of major student life circulation.”

Niemuth said schedule, proximity to thestadium, working in a compact universityenvironment and the interface with the foot-ball team facilities were among the project’schallenges.

“While the university’s existing basket-ball arena remained for the team’s game dayuses, the challenges of working around andnext to the 65,000 seat stadium meant care-ful planning and sequencing of calendars,”said Niemuth. “In addition, the site for thePavilion project impacted football teampractice fields and staging areas, meaningworkers will need to respect and avoid keywindows of time during construction.”

To further optimize shared infrastructure,the television production facilities for bothstadium and arena broadcast are being relo-cated to the event level of the Pavilion. Thisresulted in sequencing of Pavilion construc-tion activities to coincide with the footballseason and the creation of temporary accom-modations for broadcast vehicles for themore than two years of overlapping work.Coordination was key in this respect, as wellas other areas.

“The University of Mississippi is growingand expanding, meaning significant vehicle

and pedestrian traffic, parking challengesand many other competing constructionprojects,” said Niemuth. “Our team workedwith university officials to ensure minimaldisruption to class schedules, student andstaff circulation, and construction vehicletraffic for the times when school is in ses-sion.”

For the design team, creating a facilitythat was functional but also appealing to thefans also was a priority.

“Aesthetics for university buildings ismore than trends or fads or incorporating thelatest cool construction material,” saidNiemuth. “We want to make sure that thefacility is a place maker in that it becomesthe canvas where people paint their individ-ual memories. We believe the design of proj-ects like the Pavilion at Ole Miss need to befamiliar to the campus community, both athome and abroad; when viewers see thePavilion on TV it’s instantly recognizable asOxford.”

The Pavilion at Ole Miss was planned toreduce the environmental impact of thebuilding’s design and construction. Includedin the design were indoor water use reduc-tion, optimization of energy performance,enhanced indoor air quality, thermal comfortdesign to meet specific requirements,improved acoustic performance and reduc-tion of product VOCs. Niemuth said anoth-er consideration was that the venue serves asthe first impression of the university to visi-tors.

“There’s a high value placed on creating afacility that will be easy to maintain, timelessin its image and presents a feeling of quality.This is a challenge with sports projects,given the high numbers of visitors and eventdays a building will experience during a sea-son. Extra care is given to the composition ofmaterials, finishes and execution of specificdetails to make sure the experience is one ofhigh quality and not institutional feeling.

“Sports buildings need to address manyunique concerns,” said Niemuth. “Amongthem are being sure the facility creates a uni-versal experience, allows for safe access andegress and accommodates a wide array oftechnology needs. There’s an old saying thatthe purpose of sports facility design was to‘seat ’em and feed ’em’, but those days arelong gone, and that mindset is no longerapplicable when creating signature venuesfor clients and communities. For AECOM,success is defined when the university com-munity, students, staff and alumni come tothe Pavilion on opening day or for their firstvisit and it feels like home.”

NEW LOCATION

Terex Finlay recently hosted a three-daydealer conference including new productdemonstration in London, United Kingdom.The event was held from Sept. 30 throughOct. 2, and attracted more than 300 interna-tional dealers and customers from over 90countries, worldwide.A packed program of events included a

business conference, live product demon-strations and an end-user open day.During the conference, held at the Tower

Hotel, London, delegates were introduced tothe Terex Finlay business strategy and keyfocus areas for growth in the next threeyears. Key to Terex Finlay growth andexpansion plans is an aggressive new prod-uct initiative and development strategy,which will see the business double its currentproduct range in the same time period. The product demonstration events were

located at OCL Regenerations, Dartford.OCL Regenerations are recognized as bothexperts and leaders in providing sustainablematerial solutions in the South East and werethe perfect hosts during site preparations aswell as during the two day site demonstra-tions. The onsite demonstrations featured 20

recent product launches and prototypes ofTerex Finlay models due to be released dur-ing 2015. There were three official new product

launches to dealers and end users at the con-ference; • J-1175 dual power jaw crusher• C-1540 dual power cone crusher • 693+ inclined screen incorporating inno-

vative Spaleck screen box. The dual powered crushers are electrical-

ly driven allowing users to run from electri-cal supply with the aim of giving significantsavings on energy costs. These machinesalso are fitted with an onboard gen-set allow-ing the operator to move and use themachine where there is no electric supplygiving the flexibility and versatility of cur-rent standard models. These machines jointhe 694+ dual powered inclined screener thatwas launched in 2013. These product launches means that Terex

Finlay can now offer operators a full mobilecrushing and screening train that can be

powered from electric mains and has theflexibility to run self-powered if required. Inapplications where a full train is powered bythe on-board gen-set configuration thecrushers generate sufficient energy to enablethe operator to run the 694+ dual powerinclined screen for “free” when used in con-junction with the J-1175 dual power jawcrusher. The third new product launch was the

693+ inclined screen incorporating Spaleckscreening technology. This screen features aflip-flow top and bottom deck for screeningof materials including wet, moist, dry andmixed materials including recycling andskip waste, fines material, compost, wastewood, timber, aggregates and ores. The official launch of these three

machines follows a stringent and strenuousdevelopment cycle, which has seen themachines tested and proven in challengingand diverse product applications acrossWestern Europe. In addition to these newproduct launches a large number of proto-type machines also were previewed.

J-1170AS Jaw CrusherThe J-1170AS jaw crusher provides the

flexibility of a crushing and screening planton one machine. This aggressive machinefeatures a detachable on-board sizing screenthat gives operators the capability of produc-ing two spec sized products. The machinewas demonstrated working in a concreterecycling application and will be launched in

Q1, 2015.

V-2050 Vertical Shaft ImpactorThe V-2050 vertical shaft impact crusher

has been engineered for operators whorequire a high specification product andlarge production tonnages. The machineincorporates the proven Canica V-2050chamber with unique “dual flow” configura-tion that will give operators high tonnagethroughput with low production costs.

C-1554 Cone CrusherThe C-1554 cone crusher has been engi-

neered for operators who require a highlyaggressive cone with a high reduction ratio.The machine incorporates the renownedMVP450X screw cone chamber. The highlyefficient cone chamber produces a higherpercentage of sized products in a single passgenerating less fines material and therefore amore valuable product with increased prof-itability.

C-1545 Cone CrusherThe C-1545 cone crusher has been engi-

neered for operators who require a mediumsized cone crusher with large throughputcapacity while offering the flexibility ofdirect feeding or the ability to remove orbypass fines from the chamber via on-boardpre-screen module.

873 Heavy Duty ScreenThe 873 heavy duty screen has been engi-

neered to work as a primary screen inquarry, demolition, C&D Recycling, land-fill material, topsoil, sand and gravel, coal,slag, ore processing and aggregates. Thisnew model, when launched, will offersmall and medium sized operators anaggressive, flexible and class leadingmachine with a wide range of availablescreening media configurations. “It was our pleasure to welcome a huge

contingent of our international distributionnetwork to London for the 2014 TerexFinlay Business Conference,” said NigelIrvine, sales and marketing director. “This event provided an ideal platform

to showcase the significant level of invest-ment in new product development acrossour entire range. An impressive display of20 machines in one location physicallydemonstrated the breadth of our productportfolio. During the conference, we out-lined our aggressive new product roadmap, shared a clear vision of where weand our business partners should be posi-tioned in the coming years and reinforcedour commitment to provide world classproducts, supported by exceptional levelsof customer service. The conferencestamped a solid signal of intent to growour businesses together, for mutual suc-cess. This was an exceptional and an excit-ing event.”

Terex Fuchs New Eco ModePuts Operators in ControlTerex Fuchs E Series material

handlers now feature standard EcoMode operation that provides sub-stantial fuel savings. Convenientlylocated on the machine’s new mul-tifunction button control panel,operators can select either a“Power Mode,” “Eco Mode” or“Eco+ Mode” operating setting,allowing machine power output tomatch the application. “The Terex Fuchs E Series han-

dlers are designed to be fuel effi-cient, even at 100 percent enginespeed,” said Heavy EquipmentProduct Manager — MaterialHandlers — of Terex ConstructionAmericas, Steve Brezinski.“However, tasks like cleaning theyard and sorting material do notrequire 100 percent powerdemand from the engine, and ourexclusive Eco Mode settings allowthe operator to take advantage ofthese additional fuel savingsopportunities.” Featuring a three-stage engine

speed operation, the E Seriesmaterial handler can be set to“Power Mode,” providing the

operator with optimal power andspeed for heavy-duty applicationssuch as feeding the shredder, load-ing/unloading trailers and rail cars,or magnet operation. Whenencountering less-demanding,medium-duty tasks, the operatorcan simply press the “Eco Mode”button, which lowers engine RPMby up to 12 percent, depending onthe model, and caps engine horse-power at 90 percent. This deliversup to 27 percent fuel savings over100 percent power, while stilloffering high lifting and slewingrates. When the material handler is

performing low-demand taskssuch as sorting, the operator canchoose to switch the machine to“Eco+ Mode” to reduce engineRPM by up to 19 percent, using 80percent of full engine horsepower.This setting is designed to opti-mize fuel consumption, offeringup to 36 percent fuel savings. “Until now,” added Brezinski,

“material handlers were operatedonly at full engine speed andpower. Terex Fuchs new Eco

Mode allows the operator to fine-tune power demand based onneed, making the machines moreflexible in reducing overall operat-ing costs.” The exclusive Eco Mode opera-

tion is being rolled out as standard

on all new Terex Fuchs E Seriesmaterial handlers in the third quar-ter of 2014. This initially includesthe popular MHL340, MHL350and MHL360 models and will beexpanded to other models withinthe Terex Fuchs line as they switch

over to E Series production. For more information, visit

W.S. Tyler’s Vibration Analysis System Maximizes Uptime

Operations relying on screening as a keycomponent in their value chain are nowable to maximize product quality, uptimeand profit by closely monitoring theirvibrating screens to achieve peak perform-ance and efficiency, due to the wirelessvibration analysis system and vibrationanalysis partnership program completelydesigned by W.S. Tyler. The system andthe program can help mines and quarriesenhance product quality, improve produc-tivity, reduce unscheduled maintenanceand extend screen life, all of which trans-late to more profitability, according to thecompany.“We set out to create vibration analysis

options that will positively impact the bot-tom line for mines and quarries,” W.S.Tyler Technology Manager Dieter Takevsaid. “We’ve accomplished that by design-ing technologically advanced systems thatcater to the unique characteristics of vibrat-ing screens and which are user friendly.”The goal of the vibration analysis system

is two-fold. On one hand it offers the capa-bility to conduct preventative and predica-

tive maintenance. On the other, it pursuesthe ideal screening performance by opti-mizing the parameters of the screen in away that particles find as many opportuni-ties as possible to pass screen openings.The vibration analysis service is an in-

person program that customers can utilizeat intervals they deem necessary for theiroperations. Through the service, certifiedW.S. Tyler technicians visit customers’ sitesto collect data from the vibrating screens.The technicians are equipped with signa-ture wireless vibration analysis systemsused for monitoring, data collection andanalysis of speed, stroke and overall per-formance of any vibrating screen. Following each analysis, W.S. Tyler pro-

vides a detailed, easy-to-understand reportthat helps mine and quarry operators to bet-ter understand the interaction between theirfeed material, screen media and vibratingscreens. Unlike standard diagnostic servic-es, Tyler’s vibration analysis report not onlycontains all the data and information fromthe analysis, but offers a translation of theresults into complete and easy-to-follow

recommendations for improving the testedscreens’ performance, maximizing screen-ing efficiency and minimizing unscheduleddowntime. To help customers maintain consistently

high performance, W.S. Tyler also offers acomplete, ongoing and technology-basedvibration analysis partnership program.Through the program, W.S. Tyler providesthe complete vibration analysis technologykit, consisting of:• eight wireless Bluetooth accelerome-

ters that are attached to the outside of thevibrating screen to take readings at inter-vals determined by the customer. • a hand-held data collection and analysis

device (PDA) • the analysis software• batteries and chargers With the hand-held device, customers

easily download vibration data and visual-ize initial findings. For a more in-depthreport, customers simply transmit the datato W.S. Tyler via email. The company pro-vides feedback to customers within 24hours by sending a simple one page report,

containing all recommendations. Theprocess also creates historical data that cus-tomers and W.S. Tyler can use to evaluateperformance over extended periods. Initial training on the program ensures

each customer knows how to work thevibration analysis tools, how to submit thereadings and what to look for in the reports.W.S. Tyler will provide this training at itsfacility in St. Catharines, Ontario. It con-sists of a combination of classroom andinfield sessions designed to familiarizeoperators with the system, its readings andthe recommendations.W.S. Tyler’s new programs work hand-

in-hand with the company’s Pro-Deckapproach. The Pro-Deck approach opti-mizes screen media performance by incor-porating the ideal screen media for each ofthe three separate phases of the screeningprocess.For more information, call 800/325-5993

or visit www.wstyler.ca.(This story also can be found on


The wireless vibration analysis system and vibration analysis partnership program can help mines and quarries enhance product quality, improve productivity, reduceunscheduled maintenance and extend screen life, all of which translate to more profitability, according to the company.

MASON TRACTOR COMPANYwww.masontractor.com


Guimond Introduced Company With Help From CEG

Since that time National Attachments has grown to repre-sent more than 100 manufacturers of quality attachmentsfrom all over the world. “One of the key ingredients to our success has been our

employees focus on a single area locating the best possibleattachment to meet the challenges of our individual cus-tomer’s needs,” Guimond said.

Off and RunningIn 1996, Guimond decided it was time to introduce his

company to contractors outside of the New England area. “I met with the people at Construction Equipment Guide.

I had been reading the publication for years and decided thatit would be a wonderful tool to expand the reach of NationalAttachments. “At that time the company was made up of myself, my

wife Kathy and one other employee. Despite our size wecame out of the gate doing full-page advertisements andimmediately our phone started ringing off the hook. NationalAttachments was off and running. “We started introducing the Nye product to contractors at

industry trade shows across the country. We got involvedwith industry groups like the National DemolitionAssociation and ISRI. The acceptance of the Nye productwas immediate. In 1996, we exhibited at ConExpo and intro-duced National Attachments to the world.”About this time National Attachments sold its first order

to a large demolition firm previously known as CSTEnvironmental. Today it is one of National Attachments’largest customers with more than 100 pieces in its fleet. Soonafter, a 10-yd. (7.6 m) extreme service rock bucket was soldto the Trumbull Corporation in Pittsburgh, Pa., to put on a

Hitachi EX 1100. That bucket moved more than 2 millionyds. of shot rock in one year and is still in service to this day. National Attachments is very much a family business.

Guimond’s wife Kathy started out in a part-time positionwhile their family was being raised. Today, she serves as thecompany’s CFO. Guimond’s two sons, Gabe and Scott II,are the vice presidents of sales, and his daughter, Kate, headsup the company’s marketing department. In 2001, National Attachments got the call that its equip-

ment was needed at Ground Zero. Under extreme circum-stances that equipment had never been tested in before the

Nye products held up without a single failure. “Visiting that site was emotionally draining but inspiring

at the same time. Lives were at stake. We needed to help inany way possible. The sense of urgency couldn’t have beenany higher,” Guimond said.

The stump harvester has been called “the Swiss armyknife of land clearing.”

Hyundai Introduces First Attachment Product Line in N.A.

Hyundai Construction Equipment Americas Inc., hasintroduced its first attachment product line to the NorthAmerican market: a full line of hydraulic breakers consistingof 13 different models HDB10 through HDB450.Hyundai’s HDB series breakers offer a powerful impact

with a large chisel diameter from 1.6 to 6.5 in. (4 to 16.5 cm).Operating weights range from 271 to 8,186 lb. (123 to 3,713kg) and overall lengths range from 44.4 to 141.5 in. (112.7 to359 cm). The versatile breakers are suitable for a wide rangeof applications due to four chisel options — moil, wedge,blunt or conical.Hyundai’s HDB series breakers are engineered with

advanced technology for optimum performance despiteharsh working conditions. An anti blank firing (ABF) sys-tem, which prevents the breaker from continuing to strikeonce material has been demolished, comes standard on theHDB50-HDB450 models. This system helps protect thechisel pins, tie bolts and front heads from blank firing andincreases the service life of all components. When the autocontrol valve is turned on, breaker operation will automati-cally start again by giving a small amount of pressure to thechisel. Automatic stop will take place once the chisel is lift-ed up or after breaking.For maximum productivity, a two stroke selector system

comes standard on the HDB50-HDB180 models. This fea-ture allows operators to change from long to short strokesaccording to their preference and the job at hand.Not only are the HDB series breakers advanced, produc-

tive and efficient, they’re also highly durable, according to

the manufacturer. These models feature only NOK oil sealsleading to a longer seal life. On the HDB210 to HDB450models, an additional square buffer was added to increasethe durability of the gas seals, step seals and the piston. Thisbuffer seal also helps to minimize the piston’s shakingaction.An optional auto grease bracket mounted system is avail-

able on the HDB140 to HDB450 models, which allows forautomatic greasing several times a day contributing to longermachine life, particularly for the chisel. Like all Hyundai products, the HDB series breakers are

backed by Hyundai’s extensive dealer network.For more information, call 877/509-2254 or visit

Atlas Copco Introduces New, StreamlinedHydraulic Breaker Attachment Line

Atlas Copco’s new, essential (ES) breakerattachments give rental centers and contrac-tors a fast ROI by simplifying maintenanceand operation.

Atlas Copco created the ES Range as aneconomical and user-friendly option for gen-eral construction projects and light demoli-tion. Kevin Loomis, business line manager ofAtlas Copco Construction Equipment, saidthe compact, ES hydraulic breakers are easy tomaneuver into tight spaces and provide goodvisibility, which speed up day-to-day con-struction, landscaping and renovation jobs.

“The ES Range breakers are a great addi-tion to Atlas Copco’s family of SB, MB andHB breakers,” Loomis said. “Atlas Copcohydraulic breakers have unparalleled qualityand service that customers expect from anequipment manufacturer. Our breakers helpincrease our customer’s productivity and effi-ciency, while minimizing costly downtime.

The new ES Range includes three models,the ES 60, ES 70 and ES 80. These models areremarkably narrow to promote good visibilityand handling on worksites. The slim designalso results in faster cleanup. For example,

operators can cut narrow and precise trenchesfor plumbing installation applications withoutremoving excess soil to accommodate thebreaker’s size.

The ES breakers feature Atlas Copco’sexclusive, solid body construction that com-bines percussion and mounting components inone uniform structure. This eliminates theneed for external fasteners, which allowsrental center mechanics to quickly and easilyreplace wear bushing and seals, resulting infast turnaround times for repairs and mainte-nance.

Atlas Copco designed the ES breakers witha central lubrication point that contractors canquickly and easily access to grease the break-er. The breakers also feature full-length float-ing bushings to ensure grease fully coats bush-ings and tool steel to minimize wear. Thebreakers enhance productivity with a nitro-gen-gas assist system that works with theunits’ hydraulic oil to accelerate the breakers’pistons and achieve impact rates as high as1,300 beats per minute.

The three ES breakers attach to a widerange of carriers in weight classes that range

from nearly 6,400 to more than 26,000 lbs.(2,903 to 11,793 kg). Operators can use thebreakers in conjunction with Atlas Copco’stool steel, such as a moil point, chisel or blunt,to break through a variety of materials. Themoil points and chisels are ideal for breakingapart sedimentary rock and soft to medium-hard metamorphic rock. They also help con-tractors work efficiently as they move fromnon-reinforced to reinforced concrete. Theblunt tool can be used to shatter medium-hardto hard metamorphic rock and igneous mate-rial. And with Atlas Copco’s asphalt cuttertool, operators can accurately cut sections ofasphalt or through frozen ground.

For more information, visit www.atlascop-co.us.

Able to fit a wide range of carrierweight classes, Atlas Copco essential(ES) breakers are a new, economicaland user-friendly option for general

construction and demolition projects.

The Geith Generation 3 (G3) hydraulic quick coupler pro-vides operators with a safe, simple, proven and durabledesign by which to change attachments on the job site,decreasing downtime and increasing overall productivity,according to the manufacturer.

Featuring four independent safety components, the dou-ble locking, fully automatic quick coupler configurationcomplies with the impending safety standards set forth byISO/FDIS 13031:2013(E). The front safety lock retains theattachment in the event of improper link/rear pin connection,while the front safety lock and the mechanical secondaryrear safety system — independently — retain the attachmentin a working position should a loss of hydraulic power occur.

Unlike gravity-type systems, both the front and the rearspring-retained safety locks maintain high functionality insevere and dirty environments. The quick coupler’s curvedengaging plate, or pin seat, holds the attachment’s link/rearpin firmly in place upon losing hydraulic power.

In addition, the new G3 quick coupler features a hydrauliccylinder check valve, as well as the Geith “curl to release”control system, providing a safe process for attachmentengagement and release.

Manufactured using extra-high-strength steel to increasedurability, the G3 quick coupler’s simple design consists ofonly a few replacement parts and lacks greasing require-ments. Further, the compact design minimizes changes to thetip radius, reducing the loss of bucket breakout force in com-parison to previous quick coupler designs.

The variable pin center design allows operators the versa-tility to easily pick up and change between a variety of dif-ferent carriers’ attachments from the comfort and security oftheir cabs. Operators also have the ability to reverse bucketorientation when working in confined spaces, such asagainst walls or under pipes.

In an effort to accommodate customer and regionaldemands for non-hydraulic systems, Geith will offer the newquick coupler configuration in mechanical form, as well.Both the hydraulic and mechanical versions of the Geith G3quick coupler are covered by a limited one-year warranty.

Multi Machine Authorized Dealer ofNew Rayco Tracked Dump Trucks

The compact RCT80 is a rubber tracked crawler truck with a carryingcapacity of 8,000-lb. (3,628.7 kg).

For many, this winter may besevere. It has been most trying forthose in repair shops who work onthe vehicles and machinery to startand keep them operating in severecold. Fuel gelling becomes a seriousproblem and a costly one for thatshort run from the storage yard intothe shop.

E Tip’s universal fuel filter pre-heater can prevent the costly fuelgelling allowing the equipment tostart and be moved into the shopwithout being stalled by fuelgelling. Designed to be held in posi-tion on the fuel filter with twosprings and two nylon ties to snug itup, the universal fuel filter preheaterwithin a few minutes deliversenough heat energy to break thegelling inside the filter and allowfree flow to the fuel, according to the manufacturer.

Quickly mount it temporarily to the fuel filter using thesupplied two springs and nylon ties. Drawing 85 watts, the12v version can be powered by an independent 12v batteryfor the short ride into the shop and then it can be removed

and the battery set aside. There isno thermostat on the 12v and the24v version so that they continueto heat as long as the electricalenergy is connected. E Tip recom-mends for the 12v version that a10-amp fuse be installed in line.Allow the fuel filter preheater timeto operate similar to glow plugs —two to three minutes or longeraccording to how cold it is —before cranking.

Include both the “peel & stick”universal preheater for engines,hydraulic systems, transmissions,gear boxes, etc. and the universalfilter preheater in your cold weath-er package and be assured that youhave selected a more effective andcomplete solution to cold weather

problems, E Tip said.For more information, call 800/530-5064 or visit

A little more than 10 years ago Caterpillar Tractor sent outan SOS to all of the major fastener manufacturers R & Ddepartments. It had a problem with the pinion nut looseningon one of its largest earthmovers. The consistent stoppingand starting of these huge machines was putting consider-able reverse torque on the drive trains. Caterpillar needed alocking spindle nut system that would withstand 150 ft. lbs.of reverse torque. Stage 8 threw its hat in the ring.Once the proposals were in, the Caterpillar engineers

began conducting a variety of reverse torque tests on thesubmissions. There were five tests per submission. Nonepassed all of the tests, including the necessary 150 ft. lbs. ofreverse torque, except Stage 8. Without a single failure theStage 8 fastener withstood 1,000 ft. lbs. of reverse torque onevery single test. A relationship was born.Using the Stage 8 fastener, Caterpillar began sending its

technicians out all over the world to rebuild the gearboxes ofthe machines under warranty at a cost of $30,000 each. As aresult, two sizes of the Stage 8 Locking System have nowbeen included as original equipment on all of its earth mov-ing machines that use its largest differentials. With theseinstalled, $30,000 repairs are no longer needed. It has been10 years and not a single failure has been reported. Stage 8 manufactures all types of active, fail-safe

mechanical locking fasteners including locking header bolts.

JLG Boom Lifts Involved With Virtually Every Part of ProjectThe $3.9 billion skyscraper, designed by

David Childs of Skidmore, Owings &Merrill, officially rises to 1,776 ft. (541 m),making it the tallest building in the UnitedStates Scheduled to open this November,the tower offers about 3 millionsquare feet of retail and office space.A three-level public observationdeck that spans floors 100 to 102(approximately 1,250 ft. up) isscheduled to open sometime nextyear. The original World TradeCenter twin towers, which openedon April 4, 1973, had an indoorobservatory on the 107th floor (at1,310 ft.) of the South tower.JLG lifts also have contributed to

the construction of the RichardRogers-designed 3 World TradeCenter and the Fumihiko Maki-designed 4 World Trade Center. Tower 3, currently just seven sto-

ries tall, will rise to 80 stories andhave a roof height of 1,155 ft. (352m). Tower 4 (150 Greenwich Street)was the first building to open in thenew WTC complex. It is 72 storiestall, reaching 977 ft. (298 m).

Erecting buildings on such an importantand highly scrutinized site is immenselychallenging at best. The public receptionof the structures has varied widely.Regardless of perceived aesthetics, thebusiness of rebuilding the World TradeCenter complex is critical to helping

America move into the future without everforgetting its past.

Bill Dovey is the product manager, aer-ial work platforms, JLG Industries.




Designed by internationally acclaimed architect Santiago Calatrava, the buildingfeatures a distinctive, and somewhat controversial, wing-like appearance.

Steel workers are using the 1850SJ booms toerect the 114 spikes that adorn the top of the“Oculus,” the above-ground portion of thesite’s transportation hub.

New Program Customers Can TakeAdvantage of EMSolutions Programvalue of having their oil analyzed and thatdirt entry is one of the major issues theyface.“These machines work in nasty, nasty

environments,” he said. “They aredesigned to be sealed and protected andthe air filtered, but there’s just so much dirtinvolved, and a lot of it is very fine. Ifthere’s any kind of crack, any kind ofloose connection on a hose, or a clamp isloose, dirt can be sucked inside, and that’sthe worst enemy in any of the compart-ments. Other contaminants can includecoolant, diesel fuel or water leaking intothe crank case.”Wolf said that customers have come to

know the importance of the analysis.“They’re aware it’s a good insurance

policy to keep their equipment healthy andoperating,” Wolf said. “It’s not an expen-sive program, considering that you catchone failure before it happens and you’resaving tens of thousands of dollars, andthat will pay for your oil analysis programfor the next four years.”One example, according to Wolf, involved a small off-

road truck with a good history and normal tests for eightsamples and 1,000 hours of work or more.“All of the sudden, the silicate, which is dirt, jumped up,”

Wolf said. “We brought it to their attention. It wasn’t a bigincrease, but we told them to pull an early sample — don’twait for 250 hours, pull the sample at 100 hours — and seeif what we’re seeing that we think is dirt is going to increaseor just stay constant. Well, it tripled in the next 100 hours,and the iron and chrome went up too, which tells us that it’son the intake side, because you’re getting ring wear andyou’re getting cylinder wear. We called and told them, andthey pulled it out of service, and it turned out that one of theclamps had worked loose and fallen off. The hose was stillconnected, but the clamp had fallen off, and it was just suck-ing in dirt. Had they waited to the full 250 hours, they prob-ably would have wiped a bearing, and it would have been a$15,000 repair as opposed to an $8.50 clamp.”Wolf noted that a new program customers can take advan-

tage of is Equipment Management Solutions. EMSolutionsis a condition monitoring program, bringing in all of the datafields that are available on customer’s equipment. Thisincludes site inspection, preventive maintenance, S•O•Sanalysis, and the data from Product Link (electronic machinemonitoring). The report goes to both Gregory Poole and thecustomer.“They’re out there, busy making money and doing their

work, so it’s good that they don’t have to keep track of theinformation themselves,” Wolf said. “We use all of thosedata streams to help interpret what’s going on with the cus-tomer’s machines. The goal is to utilize all the information tohelp them better maintain and utilize the whole fleet — notonly from a maintenance standpoint from S•O•S when wefind a problem going on, but they also get some informationon the production. It shows the idle time vs. run time over a

period of time, which shows the efficiency of their fleet, andcan help them make a business decision of how efficientlythey’re utilizing their fleet and helps them manage the costof their whole operation.”For more information, visit www.gregorypoole.com(This story also can be found on Construction

tions say nothing about ditches, the proposed rule expandsEPA and Corps jurisdiction to the point where virtually anyditch with standing water could be covered.

Specifically, ARTBA said that “roadside ditches are not,and should not be regulated as traditional jurisdictional wet-lands since they are an essential part of any transportationimprovement project and contribute to the public health andsafety of the nation by dispersing water from roadways.”

EPA and the Corps have indicated plans to issue a finalrule by April of next year. The association will continue tooppose efforts to expand federal wetlands jurisdictionthrough both the regulatory and legislative arenas.

For more than 20 years, ARTBA has been the transporta-tion design and construction industry’s primary legal andregulatory advocate. In 2014, ARTBA submitted more than30 sets of comments to various federal agencies on proposedregulations.

ARTBA’s comments can be found in the “Regulatory”section of www.artba.org.

Triton Sitework Experiences Marked Growth Over Past Yearthey are going to have to order a part. Ialways know where we stand at the end ofthe day. They never leave me guessing.”That is good news for Hills Machinery,

which is still working to establish its pres-ence in the Triangle market. Although a fix-ture in other parts of North and SouthCarolina for years, the full-service dealershipjust opened the Raleigh store in July 2013.Besides Bell articulated trucks, Hills’s pri-

mary product line also consists of Case con-struction equipment, Mauldin paving prod-ucts, Terex Finlay and Eager Beaver trailers.

Triton Experiencing Tremendous Growth

For Triton Sitework’s part, the firm hasexperienced remarkable growth in the lastyear, led by partners David Garret and OscarHouse.This is reflected by the fact that the com-

pany now owns 64 pieces of equipment andrents approximately another 60, according toThomason.

“We rent so that we can float with theeconomy and with the weather, if need be,”Thomason said. “In the winter if it is harsh orwet, we’re not locked into those rentalpieces; we can turn every one of them in atany time. We have some that we rent short-term and some on long-term rent-to-own.”Thomason said that the company current-

ly has more than 20 projects under contract,with the Durham single-family-home devel-opment being the type of work that is its spe-cialty. In addition to single-family residen-tial, Triton also has worked on townhomes,apartments, commercial, military and insti-tutional projects.Jordan at Southpoint has been a pretty

standard job for Triton, he said, where thefirm typically provides a turnkey site workpackage including (but not limited to) clear-ing, earthwork, utilities, stone, curb andpaving.

Nye Stump Harvester Experiences Tremendous Growth“National Attachments prides itself on its

personal relationships with their customers.Many of our customers today are the samepeople that helped us get started 25 years agoand for that we are very grateful. We havesold thousands of attachments all over theworld and each one is handled like it was theonly order we were working on that day.”In 2005, National Attachments patented

the digital concrete pulverizer, an extreme-duty concrete pulverizer, with a four-posi-tioned ripper attached to its upper jaw. Thedigital pulverizer, designed by ScottGuimond and Mark Nye, is an invaluabletool on a demolition site where concrete isbeing processed and demolished, accordingto the company. “The pulverizer’s digit allows stockpiles

to be manipulated; it lets you square up theproduct to the jobs or drag items for pro-cessing closer to you. It’s just like adding anindex finger to a hand that never had onebefore; it makes a concrete pulverizer farmore functional. The sales of the digital pul-verizer have been phenomenal to the demo-lition industry,” Guimond said.Another product that National

Attachments has seen tremendous growth

with is the Nye stump harvester. A SwissArmy knife of land clearing, the stump har-vester excavates, cleans, shears and loads

stumps just like a grapple. National Attachments has nearly a dozen

of these stump harvesters working in the

Marcellus Shale fields, as well as hundredsof others operating throughout the world. Realizing that not all contractors are going

to have the need or the resources to invest inextreme-duty attachments such as thosemanufactured by Nye, National Attachmentsalso represents manufacturers of tools for thebuyer that is cost conscious.

Looking AheadAfter 25 years in the business Guimond

still sees tremendous growth for the applica-tion of new and exciting attachments for theconstruction industry. “Europe and Asia is where the real inno-

vation is coming from. They have very con-fined spaces to work with and the engineer-ing is cutting edge. I guarantee you some-thing is being used or considered there todaythat none of us have any knowledge of thatwill transform how attachments are usedtomorrow. My job and the jobs of my entirefamily is to identify those products and bringthem to market in the United States. We’retrying to define the market and always beahead of the curve.”

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) The N.C. Department ofTransportation has begun work to raise and level N.C.Highway 12 north and south of the temporary bridge on PeaIsland in Dare County. A statement from the agency said the project will raise the

elevation of N.C. 12 up to 18 in. (45.7 cm) on the ocean side,or northbound lane, and 6 in. (15 cm) on the sound side, orsouthbound lane. One lane of N.C. 12 will be closed whilework is taking place. Flag crews will direct traffic throughthe site. While ocean overwash is not a regular occurrence and has

not resulted in any recent closure of N.C. 12, the departmenthas had to shut down a single lane of the road in the past toallow traffic to safely pass through the area.
