Located adjacent to theexisting Great Falls ClinicSpecialty Center, a new70,000 sq. ft. (6,503 sq m)project is taking shape inGreat Falls, Mont. The $25million Great Falls ClinicMedical Center will include

a 19-bed hospital, operatingrooms, procedure roomsand an emergency depart-ment. Crews recently cele-brated a milestone in theconstruction, with the sym-bolic placement of a pinetree at the top of the build-ing.Local partners Dick

Crews Celebrate Milestone on Great Falls Clinic

Even as construction firms addedjobs in 41 states between March 2014and March 2015, construction employ-ment declined in 29 states and theDistrict of Columbia between Februaryand March, according to an analysis ofLabor Department data by theAssociated General Contractors ofAmerica. Association officials cau-tioned that ongoing D.C. gridlock overhow to pay for needed infrastructureimprovements and declining demandfor oil-related projects likely con-tributed to so many states sheddingconstruction jobs in March."While the year-over-year data

remains relatively positive, it is trou-bling to see so many states losing con-

struction jobs during the past month,"said Ken Simonson, the association'schief economist. "As energy firms can-cel or delay projects and Congressionalaction on transportation and other infra-structure measures remains stalled,many construction firms appear to bereducing headcount, at least temporari-ly." ��California added more new con-

struction jobs (46,300 jobs, 6.9 percent)between March 2014 and March 2015than any other state. Other statesadding a high number of new construc-tion jobs for the past 12 months includ-ed Texas (39,300 jobs, 6.2 percent),Florida (37,400 jobs, 9.7 percent),

A U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) pilot pro-gram that would allow state and local transportation agenciesto utilize local hiring preferences on federal-aid highway andtransit projects will increase costs, decrease competition, andcould actually result in less frequent hiring of minorities andwomen, according to the American Road and TransportationBuilders Association (ARTBA).U.S. Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx

announced the one-year pilot program on March 3. Theagency said allowing the local preferences will enable “dis-advantaged workers in the communities where projects arelocated to benefit from the economic opportunities such proj-ects represent.” State or local transportation agencies wouldneed to initiate a hiring preference and seek approval from

By Cathy BussewitzASSOCIATED PRESS

HONOLULU (AP) Hawaii lawmakersare pushing a plan that could increase thefuel taxes that drivers pay at the pump.

The proposal comes as states throughoutthe nation are dealing with crumbling roadsand infrastructure at the same time that fed-eral funds for highways are declining.

Nationwide, the total amount of moneyavailable to states from the Federal HighwayTrust Fund has declined 3.5 percent duringthe five-year period that ended in 2013,according to an analysis by The AssociatedPress. In Hawaii, per capita spending ofthose federal dollars declined 1.6 percentduring that period of time.

But while the funds are deteriorating, soare the roads. And the cost to fix them ismounting.

“It’s not only disturbing, but it’s down-right irresponsible,’’ said Rep. MatthewLopresti, D-Ewa Beach, vice chairman ofthe House Committee on Transportation.“States are going to have to step in to coverthe gap ... we have a crumbling infrastruc-ture in this country, and I know it’s not justin Hawaii, it’s all across the nation.’’

A proposal in the Hawaii House of

Representatives seeks to fill some of that gapby shifting the way the fuel tax is calculated.

The tax is currently set up to draw down17 cents for each gallon of regular fuel sold.The bill would shift the emphasis away fromthe amount of fuel sold and instead focus onthe price of the fuel — a significant distinc-tion in the age of fuel-efficient cars, whenindividuals’ consumption levels may bedeclining. The proposal states that the fueltax would be either 17 cents per gallon or anunspecified percentage of the wholesaleprice, whichever is greater. It passed out ofthe House Committee on Finance, with thepercentage left blank.

Rep. Kyle Yamashita, who introduced thebill, didn’t return phone calls for comment.

“People who voted for it were voting for ablank check,’’ said Rep. Gene Ward, R-Hawaii Kai, the only member of the HouseFinance Committee to vote against the pro-posal. “We keep talking about helping themiddle class ... and we’re going to stick themwith another fuel tax. It’s unfair.’’

Aloha Petroleum Ltd. was among thecompanies that opposed the bill, sayingthey’re against “any attempt to increasetaxes because they are ultimately passed onto consumers.’’

The State Department of Transportationsaid in written testimony that it appreciatesthe intent of the bill, but that the proposedsolution would create confusion for taxpay-ers and administrative challenges.

Meanwhile, the Department plans toincrease its budget for special maintenanceprojects by $70.9 million in both fiscal years2016 and 2017, according to Gov. DavidIge’s budget proposal. The majority of thosemaintenance funds are going to be used forroad resurfacing projects, minor bridgerepairs and major tree trimming, said TimSakahara, spokesman of the Department ofTransportation, in an email.

But there won’t be money left over towork on alleviating Hawaii’s traffic prob-lems — which are often cited as among theworst in the nation.

“Due to the limitation of funding, theoverall priority for the department is toimprove safety and preserve the system ofroads and bridges that we currently have,’’Sakahara said. “As such, we are prioritizingroadway and bridge improvement projectsover capacity and congestion relief movingforward.’’

A less-bumpy ride would be welcomerelief to many Hawaii drivers.

“It’s shocking how bad some of the roadsare here,’’ Lopresti said.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Workforce Warrior2015 AED Chairman Don Shilling Is Future-Focused and Passionate About Plugging the Next

Generation Into the Industry, The Association and His Own Business.By Kim PhelanSPECIAL TO CEG

Even though Don Shilling has along and active history with AED,he’s keenly focused on the futureof both the industry and the associ-ation. One of his top priorities as2015 Chairman is to continuebuilding the number of AED-accredited technical school rela-tionships through the United Statesand harnessing the power of TheAED Foundation to attract youngpeople to careers in equipment dis-tribution. “Dealers have a tendency to

focus on sales. In my opinion, withequipment getting more sophisti-cated, we have to have the servicecapability or we will never get thesecond sale, and price will not dic-tate whether or not you get deals,”said Shilling, who is president ofFargo, N.D.-based GeneralEquipment & Supplies. “We needto have a small army of fresh facescoming through those [school]programs or our future will nothandle growth — and will stag-nate.” It’s more than words — he hired

a full-time recruiter at his dealer-ship; and both he and members ofhis staff serve on advisory boardsat three schools near their business,too. “Not every dealer can afford a

recruiter, but every dealer can andshould afford the time to connectwith the schools that give us thosefresh faces,” he added. Keeping the workforce develop-

ment pot well stirred has been hispassion for a while. He’d been anemployee-education advocate athis company for many years, butShilling’s focus on developing newindustry talent started heating up in2002 when he joined TheFoundation Board, following serv-ice on the AED Board back in themid-’90s. He said he had always assumed

the primary work of TheFoundation was solely centeredaround training, but after a fewmeetings he began to see howimportant workforce is, as well. Heended up leading The Foundation

as its Chairman from 2005 to 2007. As Shilling takes the helm as

AED 2015 Chairman, he is the firstto have chaired The Foundationprior to chairing the association.

Other Work to Be DoneAs Chairman, Shilling recog-

nizes the need to keep pub-lic policy advocacy on thefront burner, too, and he’sready to step out of his“comfort zone...working onworkforce development,”and do whatever it takes tokeep the pressure onCongress to act on AED’stop legislative priorities,including long-term high-way funding, water infra-structure, simplifying thetax code, and reducingexcessive and unnecessaryregulations.“To be effective in work-

force and political advoca-cy, we need a strong AED,”he said. “We are committedto growing our membership— we intend to do that byretaining current membersand demonstrating the valueof AED.” That includes drawing in

the next generation of lead-

ers. He added, “My company is

managed by people under 40. AEDneeds participation of young peo-ple under 40, as well. We need tobe that resource young people lookto, as well as the experienced man-agers. Fresh ideas and the energy

of the young people.” He never strays far from his

focus on the future — which, offcourse, belongs to the young. Shilling reflects on his first AED

convention in 1981. “I was in awe.I was 30 years old and meetingdealer principals twice my age, and

interesting owners andmanagers.” He’s been toevery annual Summitsince, and he says, “I stillenjoy the networking andrubbing elbows with someof the most interestingpeople in the industry.”

A Good FutureTakes Planning Today at 63, he’s all

about pumping the energyand enthusiasm of youngminds into the industrythrough workforce pro-grams, into AED throughnew Future Leadersengagement, and — livingproof of his future-focus— he keeps it real right athis own company with asmoothrunning successionplan that has moved agroup of under-40 guysinto ownership, includingShilling’s son Jonathan.

Whereas some owners procras-tinate succession planning,Shilling and his partner Jerry Kernturned their attention to creating astrong plan a few years ago, know-ing it would take time to enabletheir successors to buy them out.The two had acquired the companyfrom its third and senior owner,Orvis Stockstad in 2000, and overthe course of several years enjoyedgrowth that ultimately doubled thesize of General Equipment &Supplies. “It became obvious to Jerry and

me that if we were going to passthe business on, whether to keyemployees or family members,that we were going to have to starta long ways in advance — other-wise we were going to have to say,‘Forget it,’ and sell to a third partyconglomerate with enough cash topay for it, “ Shilling explained. “We didn’t want the company to

change a great deal from what wehad. A lot of dealers probably havethe same concerns,” he added.“After we’ve grown this thing it’slike your child. We don’t like theidea of selling to somebody who’sgoing to make wholesale changes,fire a bunch of people, and run ittotally differently.” So for two years they worked

with a consultant and set in motiona 12-year buyout process wherebythe senior owners have sold stockto the young team, who are makingpayments back to Shilling andKern in semi-annual installments.When they do retire in a couple ofyears, the pair will remain on theboard and basically “kind of checkon things and then pick up a checkand go home,” said Shilling. “It’s like a weight’s off our

shoulders now, because we knowwhat’s going to happen and every-thing is running pretty close to howwe had hoped. It’s a giant relief.”

Living Values Shilling’s dad was a contractor

who had worked in construction atthe end of the Depression, then inthe Army Corp of Engineers dur-ing World War II, and he was partof the post-war boom. From his

When a 5,000-Acre Test Site Shuts Down, What’s Next?By Paul PoselSPECIAL TO CEG

News headlines such as “GM to CloseProving Grounds” and “GM Site Reborn asHousing Development” tell only part of thestory. The people of General Motors andtheir test vehicles are gone, relocated farthersouth in Arizona. What remained after theirdeparture — 60 buildings, 74 mi. of testtrack and the huge water tower — has disap-peared, too. What happened?Hank Manning

knows. In fact, hedocumented whereevery item went.That’s because hiscompany purchasedthe whole worksexcept the property,and became the dis-mantler, packager,seller, shipper and, insome cases, therebuilder of what wasleft behind.Manning is one of

the three owners ofPhoenix-area firm —Reclamation Sciencesand sole owner ofZain Resources —that cleared andcleaned up the oldproving grounds sitethat the automobile manufacturer had oper-ated since 1952. Reclamation Sciences,which was started in 2009, specializes inland reclamation and removal of items suchas buildings and infrastructure. ZainResources, a two-year-old firm, provides theheavy equipment and trained operators to dothe work.By the time General Motors had closed

the proving grounds in 2009, the propertyhad been purchased by DMB — a develop-ment company with a focus on buildingcommunities. Eastmark is the name of the3,200-acre project being constructed at thissite in Mesa. DMB was left with 430,000 sq.ft. of buildings, 85 mi. of roadway and track(including the banked test track where theminimum speed was 90 mph), and tons ofother items, both above and below ground.All of this material was sold to ReclamationServices for $100. The challenge for thebuyer: Remove all of it and recycle or findnew uses for at least 97 percent of the items.“I spent a couple of months doing a com-

plete inventory of what we purchased andput together a plan to salvage as much aspossible,” Manning said. “In the end, onlythree percent went to a landfill.”Manning has a diverse background in

construction projects so he knew what he

was getting intoand had someidea of how toevaluate theproperty he wasabout to pur-chase. Nobodyelse had anyinterest in tak-ing on this mas-

sive project, according to Manning.“I was very surprised that over the five

years it took to complete the job, some of myprojections were so close that you could nothave planned on anything like that happen-ing,” he said. “As a result, we were able todo very well.”

Among His Successful Results

Manning purchased 60 steel buildings,both testing facilities and warehouses. Somewere as large as 30,000 to 40,000 sq. ft. Hetook most of them apart, packaged them and,once a buyer was found, shipped them out.His company reassembled some buildings attheir new locations. For example, two build-ings became part of a large California dairyoperation.“For the buyers, this route was much less

expensive than putting up a new building,”Manning said. “A business that was lookingto expand and could only afford a usedbuilding, was our perfect customer. Whenwe got done reassembling a building, youcould not tell it was not new, and in mostcases, the buyer saved up to 40 percent com-pared to putting up a new structure.”A special basalt tile — dark gray to black

rock — test track built to simulate black ice

sold for $166,000. The buyer was FordMotor Company for its own Arizona prov-ing grounds. The least expensive items: $5electric reels. Manning sold hundreds ofthem.Selling other portions of the facility

proved more difficult. Manning took down a100,000-gal. water tank, including the 128-ft. tower. He thought he had it sold, but whenthe deal did not work out, he tried to sellparts. In the end, he had to scrap it.With an eye toward the future, Manning

documented every item at the provinggrounds facility and where it went.“I did that in order to demonstrate to

future clients, especially government agen-cies, that we could handle similar projects ina way that was environmentally sound andcould provide accurate record-keeping,” hesaid.Overall, the GM proving grounds project

was very successful for Manning and hispartners.“By taking down and selling buildings

and other items, we made three to four timesthe scrap value,” he said.Part of the reason things worked out so

well is that Manning’s other company —Zain Resources — provided efficient equip-ment and skilled operators to disassemblethe proving grounds. He operated fourDoosan wheel loaders and two crawler exca-vators in a variety of assignments.

Wheel Loaders• DL220 — Stripped asphalt, loaded

trucks and handled demolition cleanup.Moved lumber and removed equipmentfrom buildings being prepped for demo withthe pallet fork attachment.

• DL250 — Performed landfill reclama-tion screening, loaded stripped asphalt peagravel into trucks with a 3.6 cu. yd. (2.75 cum) bucket, loaded asphalt into the crusher,backfilled trenches, excavated asbestos con-crete pipe.• DL300 and DL420 — Stripped asphalt

tracks and loaded trucks with the 270-net-hpDL300 and 354-net-hp DL420.

Excavators• DX235LCR — The reduced tail swing

excavator helped with the building demoli-tion, using the clamp attachment, and finalcleanup at the site.• DX225LC — Equipped with the clamp

attachment, it stripped asphalt and assisted intrack mount crushing efforts. Fitted with a7,500-lb. hydraulic breaker, the excavatorwas used in the demolition of a concretefoundation for test equipment and a base-ment. It also assisted in pulling down theiconic water tower and then breaking up thefoundation footings.During much of the time the equipment

was working at the proving grounds,Manning was using some of the same heavyequipment on other projects as well. ZainResources’s first job was environmentalreclamation at the Asarco Ray mine, one ofthe largest open copper mines in Arizona.The company had to clean up containmentponds and make them environmentallysound for water. It involved a great deal ofspecialty piping and excavation.One wheel loader was used to screen

rock, grade and compact processed materialinto water drainage fields, and load andunload trucks and move concrete highwaybarriers. Two excavators excelled at rip-rapmining and trench excavations. A third exca-vator was paired with a 7,500-lb. (3,402 kg)hydraulic breaker to cut a trench in a rockledge.“This was our first experience with

Doosan equipment and it was a good one,”Manning said. “My operators — a seasonedand critical group — are now asking for theDoosan machines instead of our other equip-ment; very impressive products.”As Manning looks to the future, he sees

plenty of opportunity helping governmentagencies and companies deal with environ-mental issues.“After successfully handling the diverse

and very complicated proving grounds proj-ect and working in tough mining conditions,I think our two firms are uniquely qualifiedto continue to do well in these areas, and oth-ers as well,” he said. “Our experience,employees and equipment have us well posi-tioned for the future.”




Overall, the GM proving grounds project was very suc-cessful for Manning and his partners. Part of the reasonthings worked out so well is that Manning’s other com-pany — Zain Resources — provided efficient equipmentand skilled operators to disassemble the provinggrounds. He operated four Doosan wheel loaders andtwo crawler excavators in a variety of assignments.

Hank Manning is one of the three owners ofPhoenix-area firm — Reclamation Sciencesand sole owner of Zain Resources — thatcleared and cleaned up the old provinggrounds site that the automobile manufac-turer had operated since 1952.

Federal Funding in Short Supply forRural Water Projects in New MexicoBy Susan Montoya BryanASSOCIATED PRESS

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) Apipeline project intended to bring bil-lions of gallons of water a year to adrought-stricken section of easternNew Mexico represents a lifeline toparched communities that are quicklyrunning out of water. The lifeline, however, might not

reach the region for more than adecade, even though officials say someareas don’t have that long before wellsdry up. The slow pace of construction in

what would be the state’s most expen-sive infrastructure project to dateunderscores the challenges faced by anumber of states eyeing such projects. During the widespread drought, offi-

cials are struggling to finish large-scalewater infrastructure projects while pop-ulations are growing, drinking waterresources are dwindling, and federaldollars are diminishing. The federal government is responsi-

ble for paying about $3 billion to com-plete several rural water projectsaround the country. The amount —expected to grow by the time the workis done — represents a fraction of themore than $600 billion needed toaddress the nation’s water and waste-water needs over the next 20 years. That has left states and local water

authorities scrambling to fill the finan-cial void. Of the many pipeline proposals in

the West, one calls for moving waterfrom four remote valleys in easternNevada to Las Vegas to reduce theregion’s reliance on the ColoradoRiver. Others call for piping water fromLake Powell to southeastern Utah andfor taking water from Wyoming acrossColorado’s Front Range and on toDenver. In New Mexico, officials are desper-

ate to head off the shrinking of theOgallala aquifer, an underground sup-ply of water that stretches through eightstates and is being rapidly depletedalong the Texas-New Mexico border. “People are going to have to under-

stand that in the West, that old saying‘whiskey is for drinking, water is forfighting’ — that’s where we are rightnow,’’ said Gayla Brumfield, chair-woman of the Eastern New Mexico

Water Utility Authority. Some studies show pockets of east-

ern New Mexico might have less thana decade before wells run dry. Otherscould have 40 years, but all signs pointto demand outpacing supply as surfaceand groundwater sources dwindleacross the West. The pipeline would funnel more

than 5.3 billion gallons of water eachyear from the Ute Reservoir south toClovis, Portales, Cannon Air ForceBase and other small communities. It includes a $19 million intake sys-

tem at the reservoir, pump stations andmore than 150 mi. of pipe that willserve about 70,000 people. The price for the Ute project has bal-

looned to more than $550 million, andthe federal Bureau of Reclamationacknowledges it could end up costing$750 million. The lure for communities to pursue

these costly infrastructure projects hasbeen the promise of federal funding,said Denise Fort, a water law expertand professor at the University of NewMexico. “It’s like a shiny red apple and that

can be hard to turn down,’’ she said. Critics say the Ute project will do lit-

tle to solve the region’s drinking waterwoes and has only given way to biggerquestions about the benefits and sus-tainability of high-dollar rural waterprojects that depend on shrinkingrivers, reservoirs and aquifers. Funding for rural projects managed

by the Bureau of Reclamation has beenshrinking, forcing Brumfield and oth-ers to make regular trips toWashington, D.C., to fight for whatev-er money is left. It’s no different for Red Arndt, chair-

man of the Lewis and Clark RegionalWater System. That $570 million proj-ect is designed to supply drinking waterto 300,000 people in more than a dozencities in South Dakota, Minnesota andIowa. The states and local waterauthorities have contributed their shareof close to $154 million. Some cus-tomers are getting water now, but thepipeline comes to a dead end in a fieldnear the Minnesota border. Arndt said the Obama administra-

tion talks about improving the nation’sinfrastructure and boosting economicdevelopment but hasn’t followedthrough with any meaningful invest-

ment. If a business comes to the area,local leaders must ask how much waterthey’re going to use. If it’s too much,Arndt said the businesses are told tomove on. “They want infrastructure and they

want economic growth and what’smore important than anything? Water.If you don’t have water, you don’t havegrowth of anything,’’ he said. In January, Vice President Joe Biden

announced steps the administrationwould take to attract private invest-ment. He told reporters: “It’s one of thehardest things to deal with because itcosts so much money, and it is not any-thing that the people can see.’’ The federal Bureau of Reclamation

has about $36 million for rural waterprojects for the next fiscal year. In itsmost recent analysis, the agency esti-mates the projects could be completedby 2029 with a total federal investmentof about $3 billion. The federal government is obligated

to pay for three-quarters of the Utepipeline. For the amount of water being

moved and the population served, theNatural Resources Defense Councilestimates it’s one of the most expensiveprojects in the West. Critics questionwhether it’s worth the effort given thecost and the uncertain supply of water. They cite the situation facing the

$390 million San Juan-Chama Project,designed decades ago and completed in2008 to funnel extra water through theRio Grande Valley for Albuquerqueand Santa Fe to keep from suckinglocal aquifers dry. Due to years ofdrought, this is the first year the projectwill see a shortage of water. Those who live near Ute Reservoir

fear a similar situation and see the proj-ect as a boondoggle. The town ofLogan, for example, lives and dies bythe reservoir, and persistent drought hasreduced its levels. “It seems like there is just such tun-

nel vision in Portales and Clovis,’’ saidWarren Frost, an attorney for the vil-lage who also owns property near thelake. “They’re hell-bent to do this proj-ect regardless of whether it makessense and I don’t understand that.’’

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

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

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

Association was selected as the second-best student groupdue to its work reconstructing the guard tower that once satat the entrance to the Minidoka National Monument nearJerome, Idaho. The student chapter brought together manylocal organizations to reconstruct the tower as historicallyaccurate as possible using all available historic photos. As aresult, the group was awarded $750 from the association.Oregon Institute of Technology, AGC Student Chapter

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

construction industry evaluated the applications for thisyear’s Student Chapter Awards contest. School groups wererated based on their accomplishments during the 2013-2014school year. There are approximately 200 university-levelstudent construction groups nationwide.For more information, call 703/548-3118 or visit

Don Shilling Keenly Turns Focus to Future of Industrymodel, Don says he learned the value ofbeing conservative with resources andmoney, a strong work ethic, as well asan attitude that dares your competitor bydoing the job faster, safer, cheaper andbetter. Construction is a different brand of

brutal out in the Rough Riders state —with maybe seven or eight months ofgood weather, deadlines get intense andcontractors work holidays, weekends,and two shifts to meet promised comple-tion dates. As a kid watching dad under pressure,

he saw that “when something brokedown, it really threw a monkey wrenchinto the schedule,” he said. Which actu-ally prepared Don for the empathy need-ed for his dealership’s customers. Whenthey call up and say, “This loader isdown again for the second time thisweek, this is killing me,” Shilling gets it.His mentality: “We’ll figure out what wecan do to cover this for you.” You might say it was that empathy

for the customer that triggered GES’launch of a new holding companyacross the Canadian border. Over time,GES had developed a strong sales busi-ness with Canadian contractors whobought in the U.S. and transported theirmachines back North. But selling, rent-ing and supporting the customer wasgetting gnarly — for example sending atechnician over the border is an ordealfraught with technicalities and penalties.In the end, the solution was to set up a

Canadian division, but even that had itschallenges. Forming a corporation inCanada requires Canadian citizen own-ership, with the exceptions of twoprovinces, Nova Scotia and Alberta. Soin 2008, GES started doing businessthrough its new General AggregateEquipment Sales ULC based in NovaScotia. They’re able to do business in

Winnipeg, Manitoba, and Regina,Saskatchewan, their Canadian targetmarkets, by filing necessary govern-ment paperwork. “Our mantra has always been to take

care of the customer; that’s the mostcritical thing that we need to do after hebuys something from us,” said Shilling.“So it was important for us, rather thanto just broker equipment across the bor-der and be done with it, to be able tosupport it once it’s over there, sellingparts, selling service.” Meanwhile, back in the U.S., GES

takes care of customers from facilities inFargo, Bismarck, Minot and Williston,N.D; Shakopee, Minn., and Sioux Falls,S.D. The company had a lot to celebrateon the occasion of its 30th anniversarylast April — employing 250 people, theKomatsu dealership approaches $200million in annual sales and has $75 mil-lion in inventories. It doesn’t take a genius to deduce

what keeps the dealer chugging at sucha successful pace. “Energy is every-thing,” said Shilling. North Dakota has long been an agri-

culture-based economy, which tends toinsulate the state from large swings andoverly painful cycles. But on top of that,in 2009, while the rest of the U.S. wasfalling off a seemingly bottomless cliff,North Dakota’s oil boom was justrevving up. At the same time, commod-

Shilling’s partner, Jerry Kern, is vice president ofGES. The two bought out a third, older partner,Orvis Stockstad, in 2000. The three men formedGeneral Equipment & Supplies in 1984 after pur-chasing the liquidated assets of General Diesel, aformer AED member distributorship.

Don and Kay Shilling have one child, son Jonathan, who is GES’ vice president of sales. He and his wife Tara, both pictured here, havetwo sons, David and Marcus. Don says, “Grandpa thinks these guys are about the best thing.”

Don and Kay Shilling celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary on Aug. 3,2014 and took their first cruise, which departed Fort Lauderdale andsailed through the Caribbean to St. Thomas, St. Martin and Puerto Rico.

Brokk Inc. releases the TC120 Tank Cutterattachment. Manufactured by their sistercompany, Darda, this attachment deliversmaximum cutting control and ultimate versa-tility for continuous steel cutting abilities.The 47-by-17-in. (119 by 43 cm) TC120

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

a variety of applications, such as in salvageyards and balers, it’s commonly employedfor cutting steel tanks, pipes and vessels. The most common method of cutting

steel, an open-flame torch, poses a fire haz-ard when cutting into flammable tanks andvessels, and it can raise the risk of exposureto harmful emissions. By using the electricBrokk machine with the TC120 instead,operators reduce the risk of exposure totoxic emissions as well as prevent fires.“This revolutionary product defines ver-

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

it’s electric, you reduce the risk that comeswith cutting into potentially flammable tanks.”In addition to heightened safety, the

TC120 improves productivity by continu-ously cutting steel.“For the first time in the industry, there’s

a safe, easy, high-productivity option forcutting steel,” Martin said. “Combining theBrokk machine with the TC120 attachmentis like powering a giant scissors — it slicesthrough steel like a scissor to paper.” The TC120 attachment also benefits

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

attachments that can be quickly inter-changed for greater versatility on a job site.Brokk Inc. supplies a wide range ofremote-controlled machinery and attach-ments, maximizing productivity, improv-ing efficiency and promoting safety. For more information, call 800/621-

V3500 Hydraulic Breaker DeliversPower in Demanding Conditions

The Montabert V3500 heavy-range hydraulicbreaker features an automatic two-speed variation sys-tem — adjusting its impact energy and striking rate todeliver high energy per blow on hard ground and highfrequency on soft ground. Designed for use on largeexcavators ranging in size from 35 to 60 tons (31.7 to54 t), the 8,071-lb. (3,661 kg) hydraulic breaker deliv-ers up to 710 blows per minute. For optimal breakingpower, the V3500 requires a hydraulic flow rate ofbetween 66 and 84-1/2 gal. (250 to 320 Lpm) perminute and is classified within the 10,000 ft.-lb. ener-gy weight class.

Standard features on the V3500 include a progres-sive start system that prevents the breaker from slip-ping, a blank-fire protection system that reduces harm-ful metal-to-metal contact and an automatic lubricationsystem that ensures the breaker is constantly lubricatedfor maximum functionality. Although recommendedfor use in demolition and excavation applicationsinvolving homogeneous materials, the breaker’s ener-gy chamber acts as a hydraulic shock absorber, reduc-ing pressure variations in the hydraulic circuits to pro-vide consistent energy to the breaker. In addition, theV3500 hydraulic breaker’s fully enclosed, heavy-dutycradle minimizes noise levels while protecting work-ing parts from dust and debris. An optional air pressur-ization kit is available for underwater applications.

Doosan OffersNew Heavy-DutyDitching Buckets

Customers needing a bucket to more efficiently completea variety of excavating and grading projects can now dependon new Doosan heavy-duty ditching buckets. The heavy-duty ditching buckets are available on all Doosan crawlerexcavators, ranging from the DX140LC-3 through theDX530LC-5 models.

The heavy-duty ditching bucket’s deep profile providesDoosan excavator operators with smooth operation and opti-mal versatility when loading material, grading, backfilling,cleaning ditches for improved drainage and working onslopes.

Bucket ImprovementsThe Doosan heavy-duty

ditching buckets have thesame profile but are wider

than the standardDoosan digging buck-ets. Additionally, theheavy-duty ditching

buckets do not have theinternal center gussets

found on some ditchingbuckets. This design gives alarger capacity than the cur-rent ditching bucket andallows for more material tobe moved in one cycle of theexcavator work group.

Some other standard fea-tures include a lift eye for lifting applications, weld-on sidecutters and reversible bolt-on cutting edge to leave a smoothwork area when the job is completed. Note: the approval ofthe new heavy-duty ditching buckets is based on its designeduse, not material capacity.

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

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

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

may impact everything we know abouturban living, including the way weoperate construction equipment. Themini-city at the Ann Arbor campus,dubbed M City, is being designed totest connected and automated vehiclesystems — that is, driverless cars thatcan “communicate” with each otherand via the city infrastructure.“Certainly this will change the urban

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

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

see M CITY page 28“Mechatronic pedestrians” whooccasionally pop out into trafficwill test whether sensors and auto-matic brakes can react in time toavoid running down a real person.

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

M City Could Lead to Fewer TrafficAccidents, Fuel Consumption, Pollutionindustry.”

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

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

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

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

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

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

But there are many challenges to beovercome first.

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

“If you do this right, you can reduce

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

M CITY from page 24

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

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

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

Takeuchi: The Right Way for Right-of-Way Clearing We’ve all seen our lights flicker

on and off, or have come home tosee the clocks on the stove flashingtwelve o’clock — this is usuallydue to a short-circuit on a localpower line. Trees and vegetationthat come in contact with powerlines can cause short-circuiting andother problems. If the vegetationremains in contact with the powerlines, it can cause much more thanjust your house lights to blink orclocks to reset; it can trigger black-outs and potentially start fires,especially in dryer regions.Fortunately for us, there are com-panies like Nordstrom VegetationLLC of Redmond, Ore. that spe-cialize in right-of-way clearing.Founded in 2010, Nordstrom

Vegetation is a small privatelyowned forest management compa-ny of 10 employees. The companyworks exclusively on power lineright-of-way re-clearing, and do sothroughout Idaho. An experiencedgroup, safety is always at the fore-front of what they do on a dailybasis. One little slip or mishap issomething they can ill-afford. Whether severe storms cause

trees to fall across the lines, or sur-rounding trees and vegetationgrow into the lines, it is importantto get out ahead of it. NordstromVegetation is required for trees tohave a minimum clearing zone of30 ft. (9 m) from each side of thepower lines they work on. If the tree branches come within

the zone, they will be trimmedback to the trunk of the tree.Working with power lines is a dan-gerous job in itself, but it escalatesto an even higher risk when addingin equipment to cut trees down andremove shrubs around the lines.Despite a high-risk job, right-of-way clearing is necessary to elimi-nate the potential costs that trees orgrowing vegetation could do topower lines. One of Nordstrom Vegetation’s

latest projects required them to doright-of-way clearing of 230 trans-mission power lines in the moun-tains of North Idaho. It was a majorre-clear throughout the mountain’s30-mi. (48 km) stretch of transmis-sion power lines. The six-monthjob required a hand crew, treeclimbers, and a Takeuchi TB285excavator with a Fecon mulchinghead. They went through andmowed all the brush, and removed

any trees or branches from under-neath the power lines. They alsocleaned all of the big timbers alongthe edges to create a 100-ft. (30 m)right-of-way.Nordstrom Vegetation has been

running Takeuchi equipment forthe past three years. Initially, thecompany went to FMI Equipmentin Spokane, Wash., because theyneeded a compact track loaderwith a mower attachment. FMIEquipment was the only dealeraround the area that providedrentals with the full package. Aftera recommendation from FMIEquipment’s President DaveKopp, Nordstrom Vegetation rent-ed the Takeuchi TL10 compacttrack loader for a project.Following that project, they need-ed an excavator with a mulchinghead attached to it and decided onrenting the Takeuchi TB285 com-pact excavator after having successwith the TL10. The TB285 per-

formed so well on the job, thatNordstrom Vegetation ended upbuying it. “I am hooked on Takeuchi prod-

ucts, they really do a great job forus,” said Paul Nordstrom, owner ofNordstrom Vegetation Services.“We use our Takeuchi machinesexclusively for mulching. They arevery reliable and have all thepower we need for running ourmulching heads. The operatorcomfort is also very good — over-all it’s just a great package.” To further their efficiency on the

job, Nordstrom went back on themarket for an additional excavatorto go along with the TB285. FMIrecommended one of the newestTakeuchi models, the TB290,which Nordstrom recently pur-chased in late October. “In the limited time that we have

had the TB290, it has performedvery well for us,” said Nordstrom.“I have a very good relationshipwith Dave [Kopp] and FMIEquipment — they are alwaysthere to provide whatever needsthat I have. We really listen to theiradvice, so I did not hesitate whenDave suggested the TB290. We arehappy with the results the excava-tor has given us so far.”With an operating weight of

nearly 19,000 lbs. (8,618 kg), theTB290 is the second largest exca-vator offered in the Takeuchi line-up. It features a powerful and effi-cient turbocharged, Tier IV Finalengine, and offers precise control ofthe load sensing hydraulic system.The versatile machine also has adigging depth of 15 ft. (4.6 m) andcan reach over 24 ft. (7.3 m). Next time a storm blows

through your neck of the woodsand your lights start to flicker, justremember there are companies outthere who are working hard to pre-vent that from happening. While itcan be a treacherous job withoutthe right preventive measures inplace, it’s one that saves money.Right-of-way clearing profession-als like Nordstrom Vegetation,work to eliminate the threat of treesand vegetation wreaking havoc onpower lines and cables. Like theold adage, a little preventive main-tenance can go a long way.

Great Falls Clinic Will Feature Reduced Operating CostsAnderson Construction and L’Heureux PageWerner are working with Birmingham, Ala.-headquartered general contractor Brasfield& Gorrie, along with the architectural firmGoodwyn, Mills and Cawood Inc. and proj-ect developer Capital Growth MedVest, tobuild the new hospital. Construction isscheduled to be complete in fall 2015.Brasfield & Gorrie broke ground on thestructure in August 2014. “We have completed structural steel, con-

crete, exterior sheathing, roofing and most ofthe site work,” said Lynn Jones, Brasfield &Gorrie senior project manager. “We are‘dried in’ with the exterior envelope andworking on exterior finishes and the interiorbuild-out. The interior build-out includesmechanical, electrical and plumbing rough-in work, as well as interior partitionwork. We should start hanging drywallin mid-March.”Still to be carried out are taping and

finishing drywall, painting, ceilings,flooring, millwork, specialty items andpaving. Jones said a variety of equip-ment has been used on the project.“We utilized a large crawler crane for

structural steel and roofing. A series ofall-terrain fork lifts were used for theexterior skin, windows and canopies.We placed most of the concrete with157 to 197 ft. (48 to 60 m) concretepumps, and a series of track front-endloaders, excavators, bull dozers, andback hoes were used to perform siteexcavation.Materials being used include 2,500

cu. yd. (1,911.4 cu m) of concrete and500 tons of structural steel. A total of5,000 cu. yd. (3,822.8 cu m) of earthhave been moved on the project.“The site had some sub-surface rock that

was excavated, without blasting. It took a lit-tle longer in some areas, because we had touse heavy excavators with hammer mountsto remove rock.“There are specialty light and equipment

booms in each operating room that representthe ‘brain’ of the operating room, such aselectrical outlets, med gas booms and spe-cialty operating room lights.“The new construction adjoins an existing

clinic that the hospital owns. The clinic alsohas several independently owned buildingssurrounding the project site. The proximityof the structures is challenging.”As for dealing with the elements,

“Weather has been, and is, a concern.Fortunately, we’ve experienced a milderthan normal winter for Montana, so far. Thishas helped us maintain the schedule. Toaccommodate poor weather conditions, wehave provisions to heat the building and por-tions of the exterior during the winter

months.”Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood Inc. (GMC),

which maintains offices throughout theSoutheast, served as architect on the project.Steve Alby, director of health care for

GMC said, “Our vision for Great FallsClinic Medical Center was to design a facil-ity that not only provides quality care andenhances the patient experience, but alsomeets provider needs such as better efficien-cy and reduced operating costs. Our desirewas to create a healthy, engaging atmos-phere, rather than the stressful, clinical feelthat many hospitals seem to emanate. GMCconsiders communication with the client andteam an important and integral part of ourdesign process, so our goals and visions arereflective of Great Falls Clinic and the entireteam.“The planning stage of the project pre-

sented several challenges. We were limitedby site constraints due to the adjacent clinicand surrounding buildings. Interior planning

was challenged by the need for efficientdesign, while maintaining the ability toexpand services. The new facility wasdesigned to complement the existing clinic,while maintaining important clinical adja-cencies. Topper Parham, GMC health care project

manager, said the firm was committed toincorporating sustainability and energy effi-ciency in the design. “We believe that a greener building yields

healthier patients and employees, in additionto improving the bottom line for our clients.Our standard specifications produce a plat-form of sustainability that can be built uponas desired by each client. While the GreatFalls Clinic Medical Center did not includean additional budget for any green features,we implemented green measures wherever itwas possible without compromising the pro-ject’s budget.”The facility will complement the special-

ty center, where many of the clinic’s

providers practice. It will consist of twofloors, with the ability to expand to a third.The contemporary building shell wasdesigned by the Montana firm, L’HeureuxPage Werner, and includes building materi-als such as EIFs, masonry and glass.“Designing a health care facility is com-

pletely different from designing any othertype building,” said Parham. “GMC has adedicated health care department that allowsits architects and interior designers to workspecifically in health care, as they have formany years. In good health care architecture,decisions are based on credible medicalresearch using evidence-based design. Leanhealth care principles are leveraged to maxi-mize a caregiver’s time with patients and toeliminate excessive steps. Patient and fami-ly-centered care models provide the basis forcreating health care environments thatempower patients, as well as support staffingefficiency, and increase patient safety andhealing. Alby said, “Many additional factors must

be considered in health care design, includ-ing stricter requirements and regulations,patient experience and privacy, increasedneed for wellness promotion, medical equip-ment, operational efficiency and staff flow.All these considerations, in addition to thecomplexity and variance of clients, makehealth care design a dynamic field that dif-fers greatly from standard architecture. “Lights at the patient head wall create a

homier ambiance than most patient headwall lights that create a sterile-looking envi-ronment. Catherine Brooks, our health careinterior designer, chose the fixtures near the

Talbert Launches Updated Traveling Axle Trailer SeriesTalbert Manufacturing updat-

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

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

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

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

with the new TA Series trailers isthe standard metal e-chain for the

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

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

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

standard with double keyhole tie-

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

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

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

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

HS leads to longer removal mileage whilestill delivering optimal fuel economy. Thecasing features an enhanced bead to beltpackage increasing overall durability for

maximum retreadability. All of these com-ponents utilize proven technology andcombine to deliver optimized longhaulage performance, according to themanufacturer.The launch of the new General HS tire

will begin in May 2015 with the release ofthe 295/75R22.5 (Load Range H) and willcontinue with the following sizes:� • 11R22.5 (Load Range H)• 11R24.5 (Load Range H)• 285/75R24.5 (Load Range H)The General HD, long haul drive tire, fea-

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

ing to lower rolling resistance and improvedfuel economy. The groove bottom ejectionsystem reduces stone retention and casingpenetration leading to higher retreadability. The launch of the new General HD tire

began in April 2015 with the 11R22.5 (LoadRange G) and will continue with the follow-ing sizes:• 295/75R22.5 (Load Range G)• 11R24.5 (Load Range G)• 285/75R24.5 (Load Range G)The General HT, long haul trailer, tire

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

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

began in March 2015 with 295/75R22.5(Load Range G) and will continue with thefollowing sizes:� • 11R22.5 (Load Range G)• 255/70R22.5 (Load Range H)• 11R24.5 (Load Range G)• 285/75R24.5 (Load Range G)For more information, visit www.gener-

ing to enter for some time. We havealways catered to the vocationalmarket so the Western Star is a per-fect complement to our business.And with Western Star expandingits product offerings with the allnew 4700 model and now the 5700,the timing couldn’t be better,” saidScott Culotta, owner/CEO of AllTruck Parts. “We’ve long wanted toenter the new truck market but wewanted the product to be the perfectfit for our company.” As a Western Star dealer, All

2015 NPR ECO-MAX, offerupgraded interiors, new exteriorstyling, and new optional driver’ssuspension seat and keyless entry. “This is our strongest — and

cleanest — line of diesel trucksever,” said Shaun Skinner, execu-tive vice president and generalmanager of Isuzu CommercialTruck of America. “This reflectsour continued commitment to pro-vide the best trucks for our cus-tomers in the low cab forward mar-ket.” The 2015 NPR ECO-MAX and

2016 NPR-HD, NPR-XD, NQRand NRR benefit from all of thefollowing enhancements as theyenter their new model years:

• Onboard diagnostics (OBD)improved with a new particulatematter sensor • A new high-output 140-amp

alternator generating 30 moreamps than the equipment itreplaces• Stylish new front grille, avail-

able in white (standard) andchrome (optional)• Redesigned steering wheel• Comfortable and durable new

fabric seats

• An optional driver suspensionseat that increases comfort as itreduces driver fatigue• An optional keyless entry sys-

tem with two key fobs that lockand unlock driver and passengerdoors• An optional lockable DEF fill

cap that will help prevent tamper-ing, possible contamination and/ortheft of DEF fluid (diesel exhaustfluid)

2016 NPR-HD, NPR-XD,NQR and NRR Diesel Models

In addition to these improve-ments, the Isuzu 4HK1-TC 5.2-Lturbocharged diesel engine power-ing the 2016 NPR-HD, NPR-XD,NQR and NRR has been enhancedto deliver improved fuel economyand to meet tough new EPA stan-dards restricting the emissions ofgreenhouse gases.

2016 NPR-XDThe weight of the newest mem-

ber of the Isuzu N-Series family,the 16,000-lb. (7,257 kg) GVWRNPR-XD, has been reduced,allowing an increased payloadcapacity across all wheelbases andin both standard cab and crew cabconfigurations.“In 2014, we celebrated the 30th

anniversary of Isuzu trucks in theUnited States,” Skinner said.“These improvements to our rangeof diesel-powered trucks demon-strate clearly that we are not restingon our laurels. When it comes topower, performance, economy,driver comfort, low cost of opera-tion and environmental friendli-ness, we intend to be the leadinglow cab forward truck for the next30 years.”For more information, call

New 70,000-Sq.-Ft. Center to Conjoin Existing Clinic

elevator to create a more Montana-like aesthetic. This fixture supple-ments one of the interior finishes,chosen to look like grass on theMontana plains.

Said Brooks, “Health caredesign aesthetics should supporthospital functionality. Naturallighting and soothing colors areimportant design elements in a caresetting. These components ease thestress of a hospital visit and accel-erate recovery, which is importantin a high-anxiety environment. Agood health care design teamunderstands that aesthetics plusfunctionality is actually a symbiot-ic relationship.”

Said Alby, “The ultimate goal isfor the patient’s surroundings tofeel familiar and comfortable,while simultaneously reassuringthem they are in a state-of-the-artmedical facility.”

The facility will be ownedequally by Great Falls Clinic, amulti-specialty medical practicewith primary, related secondaryand urgent care service offerings,and Surgery Partners, a companythat partners with hospitals andhealth systems to develop andoperate short-stay surgical facili-ties.

According to Joseph Baugh,managing partner of the Alabamafirm Capital Growth MedVest,“MedVest prides itself as a realestate solution driven company,and we’re very pleased to workwith one of the nation's largest and

successful surgery center/hospitalcompanies in Surgery PartnerGroup. Great Falls needed adynamic partner that could buysome of their assets to free up cap-ital, as well as a group that couldbring the best team to the table inorder to produce the best solutionto replace their current hospital. Byworking with a proven team inGoodwyn Mills CawoodArchitects and Brasfield andGorrie, we were able todesign/plan the most cost-efficientand effective design.

“The current hospital had a pricetarget, as well as a defined timelinethey had to make in order to notinterrupt operations or put capitalconstraints on the operations.Through a team effort, we wereable to meet both the cost and time-lines needed, while still keepingwith the goals of the tenant/client.Our biggest concerns and goals

were to meet the expectations ofthe client as it relates tobudgets/timing, while at the sametime keeping with the size andscope of the plans.”

Great Falls Clinic has been serv-ing the needs of citizens in GreatFalls, Mont., for nearly 100 years.Great Falls Clinic, founded by fourgeneral practitioners in 1917, wasthe first group practice in Montanaand the fourth oldest west of theMississippi River. It currentlyoffers services to roughly 225,000residents in seventeen counties. Byrecruiting and retaining physiciansthrough the delivery of the latestmedical technology, Great FallsClinic officials believe the replace-ment hospital is positioned to helpcontinue meeting that goal.

CLINIC from page 44The site had some sub-surface rock that was excavated, withoutblasting.

Located adjacent to the existing Great Falls Clinic Specialty Center, a new 70,000-sq.-ft. (6,503 sq m)project is taking shape in Great Falls, Mont.

Crews placed most of the concrete with 157 to 197 ft. (48 to 60 m)concrete pumps, and a series of track front-end loaders, excava-tors, bull dozers, and back hoes were used to perform site exca-vation.

Construction is scheduled to be complete in fall 2015. Brasfield &Gorrie broke ground on the structure in August 2014.

The new construction adjoins an existing clinic that the hospitalowns. The clinic also has several independently owned buildingssurrounding the project site.

AED Chairman to EngageMillennials in Workforceity prices on the agriculture side were ramp-ing up, too. That double whammy — cou-pled with the wisdom and balance instilledby former owner and mentor OrvisStockstad — caused GES to double in sizebetween 2010 and 2012 and it’s been grow-ing ever since. But there more to the energy market in

Shilling’s territory than oil and gas. Out onthe prairie of North Dakota, the wind blowsall the time, he says, so construction of windfarms as well as supporting manufacturinghas been another boon. Coal, too, has been an economic staple for

the state for 60 years, Shilling adds. Fourmines yield cheap, lowgrade lignite coal,which is exported to Great River Energy inMinneapolis and to Montana DakotaUtilities, as well.

Narrow Escape Shilling loves the equipment business and

wouldn’t trade it for anything, but he almostmissed out on all the fun. As a college student at North Dakota State

University, the young Don Shilling was

working on a bachelor’s degree in PoliticalScience with the intent on going to lawschool. Luckily, one day his dad asked him to help

return some water pump parts over toGeneral Diesel, the company whose liqui-dated assets Shilling eventually purchased toform GES. “My dad struck up a conversation with

one of the owners and asked if they werelooking for someone to help out,” Shillingrecalled. Next thing you know, he was theirnext wash bay laborer — and first day on thejob he helped hook up a Hotsy SteamCleaner and was asked to drive a Terex TS24scraper into the bay and clean it. “The work was wet and a little dirty, but

for some strange reason I loved. I was start-ing at the ground floor of my life’s career anddidn’t even know it. This story was reprint-ed with permission from CED Magazine,February 2015 issue.(This story also can be

Atlas Copco Raises Nearly$31,000 for Nonprofit Group

Atlas Copco USA raised nearly $31,000in individual and company-matched contri-butions for its employee-led Water for Allcharity organization. The company raisedthe funds during a three-day, annual salesconference, and more than doubled theamount of new employee contributors. “As a responsible corporate citizen, our

company realizes how important it is to giveback to the markets we serve,” said SofieGielen, Atlas Copco marketing communica-tions director. “This is just one way our com-pany wants to make a difference in the worldwe live in.”The charity organization also gained 51

new employee members during the confer-ence. Two Atlas Copco employees, Torgny

Rogert and Peter Hakansson, founded Waterfor All in 1984 after seeing how an ongoingdrought created harsh living conditions inPeru. In just the past four years, the AtlasCopco USA Water for All initiative hashelped more than 10,000 people gain access

to clean water and sanitation and has donat-ed more than $500,000 to 15 projects aroundthe world. “What started as a one-time project to

raise money to combat drought-strickencommunities in Peru has grown into aworldwide initiative that allows our employ-ees to act on their commitment to global sus-tainability,” said Jim Levitt, president ofAtlas Copco North America. “We are proudto support organizations that raise awarenessand take action around the issues of unsafedrinking water and global water scarcity.”Water for All celebrated its 30-year

anniversary in September. During the past30 years, the global Atlas Copco charityorganization has helped more than 1.5 mil-lion people gain access to clean drinkingwater. For more information, visit www.atlas-

Atlas Copco USA employees raised more than $30,000 during a three-day sales con-ference to support its Water for All organization, which sponsors clean drinkingwater projects around the globe.

ARTBA Calls on U.S. DOT to Actthe Federal Highway Administration orFederal Transit Administration through thepilot program. Previously, U.S. DOT pro-hibited these provisions on all federal-aidhighway and transit projects, which requirethe competitive low bid process. Under thedepartment’s long-time interpretation of thislow-bid requirement, hiring preferencescould negatively influence competition bydisfavoring or eliminating contracting firmsunable to meet local hiring requirements. In April 3 comments, ARTBA said it

agrees with U.S. DOT’s assertion that“transportation investments and policies canimprove access to jobs, education, and goodsmovement, while providing constructionand operations jobs.” However, contrary tothe agency’s assertions, ARTBA observedthat local hiring preferences can actuallyfunction as barriers to facilitating economicand job growth.The association said that preferring one

group of individuals over another based onresidency would almost certainly limit com-petition in the bidding process and warnedsuch requirements could disrupt the stabilityof transportation construction jobs by forc-ing companies to lay off workers that do notlive in the preferred geographic area.

ARTBA urged U.S. DOT to consider thepilot program’s safety implications — anunintended consequence of geographic-based preferences could force companies tohire individuals for positions in which theyhave no qualifications. If training them with-in the project’s time frame is impractical andunsafe, then they may be given job dutiesthat are safer and more peripheral, but large-ly unnecessary to the project itself. As aresult, the association said, the transportationproject would cost taxpayers more.ARTBA also noted that geographic-based

preferences could dilute existing regulatoryrequirements aimed at increasing theemployment of minorities and women intransportation construction.In its conclusion, ARTBA called on the

U.S. DOT to focus its energies on develop-ing and building political and public supportfor a long-term, stable proposal to grow fed-eral Highway Trust Fund revenues. Such acourse, the association said, would allow thenation to improve its transportation infra-structure and grow the size of the workforcebuilding and maintaining it.

Association officials said the industry's recovery was atrisk amid weakening demand and urged Congress and theObama administration to act quickly to figure out a way topay for and pass legislation to repair aging roads, bridges andtransit systems, as well as other public infrastructure. Theyadded that road users should visitwww.DriveBetterRoads.org to share their stories of bad roadconditions and urge Washington to act.

"The construction industry has clearly hit a soft patch," saidStephen E. Sandherr, the association's chief executive officer."Passing needed infrastructure measures will certainly helpkeep construction employment levels from backsliding."

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

Customer TestimonialThanks again for working with me. The Track is on and I am back playing in the dirt!

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

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

USED TRACKSLOEGERING VERSATILE TRACK SYSTEM (VTS)

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

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

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

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

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

Used Systems Available, Parts in Stock!

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