Deere Aviation Team Flies Okla. DealerHome to Aid in Tornado CleanupBeing acutely aware of the weather

is just one part of the John DeereCorporate Aviation team’s job, accord-ing to the company. But on May 20,2013, Mother Nature threw a curveball,bringing the aviation team, C&Femployees, a dealer and a customertogether.On that day, CL Boyd’s, Oklahoma’s

John Deere dealer, Steve Decker, vicepresident of marketing, and JohnWillis, equipment advisor, were ontheir way to meetings at the Deere &Company World Headquarters inMoline, Ill. Also with them were Silver Star

Construction’s Steve Shawn, president,and Louis Cossey, equipment manager.Silver Star Construction provides con-struction services to developments androads and is located in the nearby sub-urb of Moore.The group arrived in Chicago in the

afternoon to make their final connec-tion to Moline. �“We were at O’Hare making the

connection to Moline when we firstlearned of the weather threat backhome,” said Decker. “We startedwatching the live news feed on ourphones, and as our flight started to taxifor takeoff, we saw the funnel drop.” Afew minutes later, the feed was lost. The short flight from Chicago to

Moline seemed endless and when thegroup finally landed at the Quad CityInternational Airport and cell-phoneservice was restored, they discoveredthe city of Moore had taken a direct hit.��Instantly, the men knew they had to

return to Oklahoma. After exploringtheir options, they decided they couldrent a car and either make the 700-mi.trip home or drive back to Chicago andattempt a flight home the followingmorning. “Neither were good optionsgiven the urgency of the situation,” saidDecker. “So I decided to call Deere tosee if they could help.”Decker’s first call was to Mark

Germain, director of customer andproduct support. Germain calledDomenic Ruccolo, senior vice presi-dent, worldwide C&F sales and mar-keting, who secured the approval to usea company plane. The Deere aviationteam quickly made preparations fortake-off. “We’re forever grateful toMark, Domenic, Sam Allen (Deere &

Company chairman and CEO), pilotsJeremy Scales and Ben Forest, and theentire John Deere Corporate Aviationteam for getting us back home soquickly,” said Decker. “What they didfor us matters to more people thanthey’ll ever know.”��Shawn added, “This sort of commit-

ment is what sets Deere apart from itscompetitors.”Ninety minutes after taking off from

Moline, the group was flying intoOklahoma. As they descended, thesight was unimaginable. “We saw thetornado’s path and the size of the areathat had been hit,” said Decker. “Wesaw what seemed like an endless line ofemergency lights and miles of trafficgridlock in every direction. We sawempty lots where homes and business-es used to stand. It was a scene none ofus will ever forget.”� CL Boyd and Silver Star

Construction employees living in thearea were safe. Silver Star’s office wasalso safe. However, the tornado killed24 people, including seven studentsfrom Plaza Towers ElementarySchool.� �During the following days, crews

from Silver Star began working to clearthe roads of debris so emergencyresponders could navigate their waythrough the area. It was estimated that150,000 total tons (136,077 t) of debrisneeded to be removed. A number of

Deere machines were involved withthe cleanup effort. Silver Star’s threefour-wheel-drive loaders and a back-hoe were instrumental in clearing thestreets in those crucial first days afterthe tragedy. Smaller commercial work-site product equipment was used topush debris to the curb, and excavatorswere also in demand.During a visit to Moore in late July,

city of Moore representatives andShawn presented a plaque to Ruccolo;Mike Mack, president, WorldwideConstruction & Forestry Division; andothers from the C&F Division for JohnDeere’s assistance during the aftermathof the May 20th tornado. The plaquealso has a fire fighter’s helmet, which issigned by the Moore first responders.“It was an honor, but also extremelyhumbling to receive such a touchingrecognition, especially one signed bythe true heroes of that tragic event, ”said Ruccolo.Upon returning to Moline, Ruccolo

decided that the plaque should be keptby the John Deere Aviation team to rec-ognize their efforts and assistance.“Larrie Dahl and the entire Aviationteam did an incredible job in returningour customers home that day so quick-ly,” said Ruccolo.�

BRIDGE CITY, Texas (AP) Itwas a bridge, only one of two likeit in Texas, slated to be demolishedand replaced. Concerned Orange County resi-

dents like Mark Dunn formed acommittee — the Bridge CityCitizens for Historic Preservation— to help fight for the preservationof Cow Bayou Bridge, which wassaid to be ahead of its time whencompleted 72 years ago. The bridge has been designated

as a historical place with the TexasHistorical Commission and alsohas found its place in the NationalRegister of Historic Places. Most recently, the Texas

Transportation Commission allot-ted $9.5 million for an overhaul tobring the bridge back to completeworking order. “The technology of the bridge

back in its day was like a marvel,’’he told the Beaumont Enterprise.“Only two bridges like it remain inTexas.’’ The other bridge also is in

southeast Texas, in Deweyville,but it has to be manually cranked toopen. The Cow Bayou bridgeoperates with a motor. Dunn said Cow Bayou Bridge is

where Bridge City originally gotits name. “The city grew up around that

area of the bridge,’’ he said. To Dunn, however, the bridge is

more than just history. It’s a mem-ory. He said in a September 2009

Enterprise article that, as a child, he“loved to watch the Cow BayouSwing Bridge on Texas 87 open asa small tugboat, sometimes pullinga barge of shell, passed.’’ “I remember we were always

excited to see the bridge open,’’ hesaid in 2009. Dunn didn’t like the idea of los-

ing the landmark. The group received support

from preservation societies like theHistoric Bridge Foundation. Itoffered to the committee to be aconsulting party of the Section 106process, which requires “federalagencies to take into account the

effects of undertakings on historicproperties.’’ Dunn said a huge help came

from the foundation, specificallythe foundation’s executive directorKitty Henderson, who he saidhelped emphasize the importanceof its historical status to theNational Register of HistoricPlaces. The bridge stretches alongside

Texas 87 and rests on a concretepier. It pivots 90 degrees to allowwatercraft to pass on either side. “This project has been in the

planning stages for some timenow,’’ said Tucker Ferguson, dis-trict engineer of the Beaumont

District of Texas Department ofTransportation. “It’s a historicbridge, so it was important that thisbe a restoration project instead of arebuild.’’ The last time it was operated as

a swing bridge was in 2003. Therenovations, which will begin atthe end of the year, are expected tobe completed by 2015. According to an application to

the National Register of HistoricPlaces, the bridge qualified for des-ignation under the engineering sig-nificance: “Property embodies thedistinctive characteristics of a type,period or method of constructionor represents the work of a master,

or possesses high artistic values, orrepresents a significant and distin-guishable entity whose compo-nents lack individual distinction.’’ The bridge was modeled after

the Deweyville Bridge, now the“Texas 12 Sabine River Bridge.’’ The Bridge City Citizens for

Historic Preservation has disband-ed since the bridge’s addition to thehistoric places list. Dunn said allthey wanted to do was educate thepublic. “A lot of people didn’t really

have any idea what the signifi-cance of the bridge was,’’ he saidof Cow Bayou Bridge. “Both ofour bridges are namesake bridgeswith the historical registry.’’ The bridge will be remodeled

and renovated down to the last but-ton in the wheelhouse. Dunn said the bridge will look

like it did when it was completed in1941 despite minor damage itreceived in Hurricane Ike.

History Swings in Southeast Texas Bridge’s Favor

Sen. Boxer Earns Asphalt Legislator of the Year AwardThe National Asphalt Pavement

Association (NAPA) presentedSen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.)with the Asphalt Legislator of theYear Award for her bipartisan lead-ership in crafting the MovingAhead for Progress in the 21stCentury Act (MAP-21).“We commend Senator Boxer

for her extraordinary leadership inadvancing legislation that willtruly modernize and reform thenation’s current transportation sys-tem to help create jobs, accelerateeconomic recovery and build thefoundation for long-term prosperi-ty,” said John Keating, presidentand COO East of OldcastleMaterials Inc. and chairman of theboard of directors of NAPA.Russell Snyder, executive direc-

tor of the California AsphaltPavement Association added,“Transportation policy and fund-ing our nation’s surface transporta-tion network should be a bipartisan issue thatbrings members of Congress together acrossparty lines. Senator Boxer’s leadership andoutstanding work ensured that a dividedCongress could come together to pass this

important legislation on behalf ofCalifornians and all Americans.”Boxer is being recognized for her single-

minded pursuit of a bill to reauthorize thesurface transportation programs. She

ignored naysayers who said a billwould never pass. She overcameobjections from stakeholdersopposed to certain compromises.She stuck to a bipartisan path, andhad the courage to set aside policygoals that were near and dear toher. Despite the bitter partisandivision in Congress and the manydistractions of a presidential cam-paign year, Boxer succeeded.MAP-21 includes many

reforms that transform how feder-ally funded transportation projectsare managed, including a consoli-dation of program categories; fur-ther environmental streamlining;performance measurement, moni-toring and reporting; accelerateddeployment of innovative pave-ment technologies; and expandedopportunities for leveraging exist-ing dollars though a largerTransportation InfrastructureFinance and Innovation Act

(TIFIA) program.“Sen. Barbara Boxer produced the only

bill that could have passed the Senate, theHouse and the White House,” said Keating.“We are grateful for her focus and dedication

and NAPA will stand by the senator as sheworks to address the historic shortfall in rev-enues the Highway Trust Fund faces in fiscalyear 2015.”According to the Congressional Budget

Office, the Highway Trust Fund lacks suffi-cient funds to meet its obligations, which hasresulted in steadily accumulating shortfalls.Under current projections, no federal fundswill be available for state infrastructure ortransportation projects in fiscal year 2015.Boxer has noted that this would jeopardizealmost 3 million jobs nationwide.The award was presented to Boxer during

NAPA’s Asphalt Fly-In, which broughtasphalt producers, paving contractors androad builders to Capitol Hill to discuss infra-structure funding with their members ofCongress, as well as to educate them aboutsustainability efforts by the asphalt pave-ment industry that preserve natural resourcesand save taxpayers money. For example, theuse of reclaimed asphalt pavement and recy-cled asphalt shingles in 2011 eliminated theneed for more than 21 million barrels ofasphalt cement, saving taxpayers some $2.2billion.

Cat D7E Track-Type TractorsDeliver Power, EfficiencyRepublic Services has discovered a more

efficient way to process 3,200 tons (2,903 t)of waste delivered daily on average to theSycamore Landfill in Santee, Calif. A pair of Cat D7E track-type tractors push

municipal solid waste at the tipping face,move soil for daily cover, and help maintainthe 491-acre site. “The machines are beingutilized 100 percent of the time,” said GabeGonzales, operations manager. “Themachines keep the material moving, andthere’s no loss in power because they areelectronic.”The D7E’s unique diesel-electric power-

train burns considerably less fuel than tradi-tional systems. The electric generator, powerinverter, and propulsion module in the elec-tric drive system replace traditional mechan-ical components to improve power and effi-ciency.“Based on the fuel economy and torque of

the machine, we’re able toprocess the same amount ofmaterial at a lower cost,”said Gonzales. “Our opera-tors use direct drive at alltimes.”To keep pace with 23-ton

(21 t) truckloads of material,the landfill uses both of theD7Es to spread municipalsolid waste at the tippingface during the hours of peakactivity. The flexibility of having

two machines for peak hoursand separating them at othertimes has proven to be verybeneficial in meeting a vari-ety of dozing requirements throughout theday. Each D7E burns 6.6 gal. (25 L) of fuelper hour compared to 13 gal. (49 L) per hourfor the larger track-type tractor theyreplaced. The ability to perform differentdozing tasks in different locations has actual-ly increased productivity and overall effi-ciency.Operators are easily able to handle the

peak hours each day, and keep pace withwaste flow at other times using only onemachine.When not working at the tipping face, the

D7Es place the daily cover, and providemaintenance throughout the site.

Another benefit of the electric drivemotor, the D7E meets Tier IV Interim emis-sion standards. This helps the landfill reduceits carbon footprint.

Operator FavoritesThe new machines — one of which was

purchased in 2012 and the other earlier thisyear — are quickly becoming operatorfavorites. They especially like the ergonom-ics of the cab and controls, quiet operation,and ability to set the hydraulic feed to theirown specifications. “The user screen is veryfriendly,” Gonzales said. “Overall, it’s aneasy machine to operate.”To help the machines with the heavy

workload at the landfill, Hawthorne CATinstalled a specialized guarding for theundercarriage and windows.A 3-ft. (.9 m) high screen was added to

prevent waste from spilling over the blade.

Hawthorne CAT employees also helpedlandfill staff become acquainted with thenew machines through walk-arounds andreviewing the D7E’s new technologies andperformance features. The professionals atHawthorne CAT are available to answerquestions about the D7Es or any of the otherCat machines in the fleet. “They’re a phonecall away,” said Gonzales. It all adds up toincreased efficiency at the landfill, and animproved bottom line for Republic Services,according to the company.

Dressta Invites Media to ManufacturingFacilities in Stalowa Wola for TourDressta Co. Ltd recent-

ly held a press day eventinviting media representa-tives from around theworld to its manufactur-ing facilities in StalowaWola, Poland. Media rep-resentatives had an oppor-tunity to view the manu-facturing facilities whereDressta dozers, wheelloaders, backhoe loadersand pipe layers are assem-bled. They concluded thetour with demonstrationsof various pieces of con-struction equipment man-ufactured at the facility.The Stalowa Wola pro-

duction plant began opera-tions in 1937 as a sourcefor military equipment,but through a series oflicensing agreements, the plant becameone of the primary manufacturers ofconstruction equipment in centralEurope.In early 2012, Dressta Co. Ltd was

purchased by Guangzi LiuGongMachinery Co. Ltd. In the NorthAmerican market, LiuGong NorthAmerica is responsible for the market-ing of Dressta branded constructionequipment manufactured at the plant inStalowa Wola, Poland. “The acquisition and integration of

Dressta North America by LiuGongNorth America was completed this pastFebruary. We now leverage the engi-neering and technical advantages ofDressta with the manufacturing expert-ise and production capabilities ofLiuGong,” said LiuGong NorthAmerica President Marc Dowdell. “Wecan also now take the cross collateral-ization of product support resources

and personnel, plus economies of scalein marketing, accounting, finance andlogistics to operate a more effectiveteam capable of meeting our customerdemands,” he continued.Within the Dressta equipment line,

North America focuses on the Dresstadozers that are designed and built foroptimum performance. The line of doz-ers have various track options rangingfrom standard (STD), long (LT), wide(WT) and low ground pressure (LGP),which assure machine balance for doz-ing, ripping and fine grading amongother diverse machine functions.Dressta dozers are used for road con-struction, land clearing and buildingenvironments. The largest model offered in North

America also is Dressta’s largest dozerthe TD-40E Extra, which weighsalmost 70 tons (63.5 t) and delivers 515hp. This model features increased

drawbar pull due to theconventional powertrainwith 2-speed steering. TheTD-40E Extra has aCummins diesel enginethat meets EPA Tier IIIemissions requirements. On the opposite end of

the spectrum, the smallestDressta dozer available isthe TD-7R crawler dozerthat weighs almost 8.5tons (7.7 t) with a 74 hpengine. The TD-7R is apart of the smaller crawlerdozer “R” series, whichreplaces the standard TD-7. This machine, alongwith the rest of the “R”series dozers, have a pow-ertrain that responds to awide variety of applica-tions in which the tractors

are used for, including fine machinecontrol, slow turns, quick pivotingturns, operating at full power pushingfull loads, and finish grading. All Dressta dozers offer steering

control, traction and ideal balance,which allow the dozers to operate effi-ciently and effectively with large loads.Service and maintenance points areclearly marked and strategically placedfor easy access. The machines comebacked by LiuGong XtraCare Premier3 year/4000 hour extended warranty. “Now that we’re fully integrated,

LiuGong North America is fully com-mitted to the Canadian market for bothdealers as well as end users,” said AlanJeffrey, a regional sales manager ofLiuGong North America.

In 2016 the city of LongBeach, Calif., will have anew iconic landmark in itsharbor. The project toreplace the aging GeraldDesmond Bridge is a jointeffort of Caltrans and thePort of Long Beach, withfunding contributed by thePort of Long Beach, theCalifornia Department ofTransportation, the U.S.Department ofTransportation and the LosAngeles CountyDepartment ofTransportation. In addition to altering the

skyline, the new six-lanebridge with taller clearanceis expected to dramaticallyimprove this important com-muter and trucking corridorand enhance SouthernCalifornia’s vital link tointernational trade markets. Designated a National

Highway SystemIntermodal Connector Routeand part of the FederalStrategic HighwayNetwork, the GeraldDesmond Bridge is a criticalstructure serving the ports ofLong Beach and LosAngeles, the city of LongBeach, Los Angeles andOrange counties and thenation. Considered one ofthe nation’s most vital piecesof infrastructure, it sees 15percent of all U.S. ship-borne cargo travels over it tonearly two-thirds of thecountry.But as those cargo ships

grow, the aging bridge is

incapable of handling theirincreased dimensions. Whenthe Gerald Desmond Bridgeopened in 1968, cargo shipswere about one-sixth thesize of today’s ships. “Theyused to carry 8,000 contain-er units,” said John Pope,community relations man-ager of the Port of LongBeach and projectspokesman. Now they carry14,000 containers — thelargest container vessels tovisit North American ports— and even bigger vesselsare under construction: thenewest can carry 18,000container units. “It’s a tightfit.”It’s more than tight. While

some ships have to come inat low tide, others don’t fit atall. The north inner harbor isoff limits to the biggestships, Pope indicates. At 155ft. (47 m), the existingbridge prevents some of thelarger cargo ships from

reaching piers within theinner channels. BecauseLong Beach is one of theworld’s busiest seaports andcontinues to enjoy steadygrowth in cargo volumes,this limited access is becom-ing problematic.The existing bridge is one

of the lowest in a major porton the west coast. Itsreplacement will raise theclearance over the Port’sinner harbor channel 50 ft.(15 m), which will allow thenew generation of larger,more efficient cargo ships topass. At 205 ft. (62.5 m), the

new Gerald DesmondBridge will be the tallestcable-stayed bridge in theUnited States.In addition to gaining

height, the new bridge willalso add girth with the addi-tion of one lane in eachdirection to serve the currentvolume of 68,000 vehiclesper day (18 million trips peryear) and to accommodateprojected traffic increases.Four new emergency laneswill alleviate backups due toaccidents and breakdowns,adding a measure of safetyfor commuters.Another reason behind

the project is the cost ofmaintenance for the bridgethat is reaching the end of itslifespan.

In addition to altering the skyline, the new six-lane bridge with taller clearanceis expected to dramatically improve this important commuter and trucking corridor and enhance Southern California’s vital link to international trade markets.

The existing bridge is one of the lowest in a major port on the west coast. Its replacement will raise the clear-ance over the Port’s inner harbor channel 50 ft. (15 m), which will allow the new generation of larger, moreefficient cargo ships to pass.

When the Gerald Desmond Bridgeopened in 1968, cargo ships wereabout one-sixth the size of today’sships.

Sleek, Modern Look of Bridge Will Add Unusual SilhouetteLandmark Project

There are approximately 43cable-stayed bridges in the UnitedStates, but this will be California’sfirst cable-stayed bridge for traffic.It also will be the second tallestcable-stayed bridge in the country,featuring cable towers reaching515 ft. (157 m) above the LongBeach skyline, and will have thehighest clearance of any cable-stayed bridge.The cable-stayed design is pop-

ular in Europe and Asia because ofits efficient, cost-effective designand relatively lower constructioncosts. “With a predictable design,you get solid cost estimatesbecause there are fewer variablesin construction,” Pope said.Despite the fact that “West coast

infrastructure isn’t as old,” Popesaid, the sleek, modern look of thenew bridge will add an unusual sil-houette. “There’s been a lot of buzzin Long Beach. People recognizethat it will alter the landscape of thecity. It’s expected to become a keylandmark.”It’s also expected to last. “We’re

thinking of this as a 100-yearbridge,” Pope said, explaining thattypically, ships get wider, not taller,so the 200-ft. (61 m) clearanceshould be able to accommodatefuture ship designs.The project is unique in other

ways, as well. It will be one of themost seismically advanced struc-tures in the country. BecauseSouthern California is home toactive earthquake faults, the bridgeis being designed with the latestknowledge and techniques. A cable-stayed bridge is a flexi-

ble structure by design. This bridgewill have various components suchas sheer links that will act as“fuses” to take the brunt of anearthquake’s energy, breaking toprotect the overall integrity of thestructure. The bridge will be builtin sections, connected by hingesthat will move in a quake.

Pre-ConstructionOf the $1.1 billion budget,

approximately $650 million is foractual bridge construction. Otherbudget items include the demoli-tion of the bridge and pre-construc-tion activity that involved utilityrelocation and moving dozens ofold and active oil wells in the path

of the new bridge.Before any work could com-

mence, active oil wells had to becapped and moved. The Port sitson the third-largest oil field in thecountry, so it was the Port’s respon-sibility to have the Right of Waycleared of utility lines and old oilwells. Some inactive wells had tobe “re-abandoned” because theywere capped to old standards.Locating vertical wells to depths of240 ft. (73 m) amidst horizontallyintersecting utility lines was a chal-lenge, Pope said.Another challenge is to not dis-

rupt operations in one of thebusiest ports in the world. Trucktraffic moving cargo in and out ofmultiple piers/berths must not beimpeded.“I have attended several traffic

management meetings,” Pope said,adding that their number one prior-ity is terminal access, but that hasbeen complicated by having fouractive projects in the same zone.“There are a lot of moving pieces;juggling is difficult.”He said they haven’t had this

many projects come together atonce. Development in the Port wason hold for 10 years, but a recentfocus on green port policy has toprojects now. “It’s a new era ofdevelopment.” Up to $4.5 billion isexpected to be spent on projectsover the next 10 years, aimed atimproving and modernizing Portfacilities. The bridge and middleharbor are the two biggest projects,at a cost of $2 billion.

It’s an exciting time, but thereare growing pains, Pope said.Doing projects in the middle of aworking port is a big challenge.“Long Beach is a major hub forinternational business. Truck andtrain routes can’t be shut for a longstretch of time, so the work has tobe staged.”In some cases, temporary alter-

nate routes are being constructed.The Port, the contractor and thePort tenants are working togetheron timing to plan for the biggestpotential disruptions during thenon-peak traffic times and to buildtemporary roads and ramps to keeptraffic flowing.In July, demolition of an over-

pass blocking the footprint of thenew bridge began. This requiredweekend closure, Pope said. Todate, the project has had only thatone major closure and has avoidedmajor backups. “We will use that

[closure] as a model.” He antici-pates traffic issues in one yearwhen construction reaches theintersection of Ocean Blvd. andPico. “A lot of connectors need tobe redone.”Pre-construction is done and, as

of late September, crews were test-ing for approximately 300 founda-tion piles.The 8,000-ft.-long (2,438 m)

bridge is being constructed next tothe existing bridge, which willremain in use for drivers and willbe demolished when the newbridge is completed. Another unique aspect — at

least for California — is the mov-able scaffolding systems. Thesesystems replace the traditional“false work” (wood and steel sup-port systems that rise from theground to help frame an elevatedroadway) when building bridgecolumns and road decks.

Suspended in the air atop thebridge columns, the MSS will con-fine the framing and constructionof the bridge deck to increase safe-ty and improve construction effi-ciencies. Joint venture SFI — made up of

Shimmick Construction Co. Inc.,FCC Construction S.A. andImpregilo S.p.A. — is general con-tractor, overseeing more than 300key construction workers directlyon the bridge and 2 to 3 times asmany subs and supporting workersonce work gets into full swing in2014.The bridge will feature more

than 70 support columns and 40cables for each tower. Each cableconsists of 30 to 80 strands,depending on the location. Eachstrand is approximately 0.6 inchesin diameter. If each strand was laidend to end, the length of all strandswould reach 1.7 million ft.(519,768 m). The longest cable isapproximately 573 ft. (175 m).Laid end to end, the total length ofall cables would be approximately15,000 ft. (4,572 m). The entirecable system weighs approximate-ly 1.2 million lbs. (544,310 kg).Materials required include

approximately 17.5 million lbs.(7.9 million kg) of structural steel,72 million lbs. (32.7 million) ofrebar, 182,000 cu. yds. (139,149 cum) of concrete.

Project Benefits:• Three lanes in each direction for improved traffic flow• Emergency lanes on both sides to reduce traffic delays and

safety hazards from accidents and vehicle breakdowns• A 205-ft. (62.5 m) vertical clearance to accommodate the

world’s largest, “greener” vessels• A reduction in the bridge’s steep grades, for further

improvements to traffic flow• The Mark Bixby Memorial Bicycle Pedestrian Path with sce-

nic overlooks• Additional improvements include reconstruction of the

Terminal Island East Interchange and the I-710/GeraldDesmond Bridge Interchange

This bridge will have various components such as sheer links that will actas “fuses” to take the brunt of an earthquake’s energy, breaking to protectthe overall integrity of the structure.

In addition to gaining height, the new bridge also willadd girth with the addition of one lane in each direc-tion to serve the current volume of 68,000 vehicles perday (18 million trips per year) and to accommodateprojected traffic increases.

More Than 96,000 Attend ConExpo ’93 in VegasConExpo 1993

In spite of a down economy and a 50 percent decline in earthmovingmachinery sales since 1989, ConExpo ’93 hosted more than 96,000 con-struction professionals from around the world, the third largest attendance inits 84-year history, according to preliminary figures provided by ExpositionManager Dennis Slater. Held March 20 to 25 in Las Vegas, the expositionhad 800 exhibitors and occupied 960,000 net square feet of exhibit space,indoors and outside — the largest exhibitor count and display area in its his-tory.

At the last ConExpo, held in 1987 in Las Vegas, 308 companies used908,000 net square feet of exhibit display space. ConExpo ’93 also made his-tory by hosting a record 25 foreign delegations organized by the foreign serv-ice nationals in U.S. embassies and consulates abroad. Approximately 800delegates attended the show as part of the Foreign Buyer Program sponsoredby the U.S. Department of Commerce. These totals surpassed any other

Las Vegas, Nevadaindustry show of any type since the inception of the pro-gram.Non-U.S. attendance is estimated to represent between

20 and 25 percent of the total attendance, according to LenHeimowitz, U.S. Dept. of Commerce, International TradeAdministration ConExpo liaison. Included were 140attendees who were at ConExpo under a United StatesTrade and Development Agency grant. ConExpo washeld in conjunction with the Associated GeneralContractors of America’s annual CONSTRUCTOR expo-sition, which added another 150 exhibitors occupying anadditional 150,000 net square feet of exhibit space. Thisbrought the combined total of the event to 950 exhibitorsand 1,110,000 net square feet of exhibit space, making itthe biggest construction equipment exposition in theworld in 1993.ConExpo is sponsored and produced by the

Construction Industry Manufacturers Association(CIMA). ConExpo has historically been held every sixyears since 1957. The CIMA board of directors hasappointed a committee to study the feasibility of changingthe cycle to a shorter time frame. The committee will sub-mit its recommendations regarding the cycle and locationof the next ConExpo to the board for consideration at itsnext meeting in April.Opening Day Ceremonies participants included Gary

Godbersen, ConExpo ’93 general chairman; JohnPanettiere, 1993 chairman, Construction IndustryManufacturers Association (CIMA); Fred J. Broad,CIMA president and secretary; Robins Jackson, president,Associated General Contractors; Hubert Beatty, executivevice president, Associated General Contractors; PaulChristensen, chairman, Las Vegas Convention & Visitor’sAuthority.ConExpo is sponsored and produced by CIMA, the

international trade group representing construction equip-ment manufacturers and construction-services providers.

Who Ran the ConExpo Show When ConExpo ’93 opened its doors on March 20, the

crowds that swarmed into the Las Vegas ConventionCenter surpassed even the most grandiose expectations. Inone of America’s largest buildings, it was almost elbow-

to-elbow with enthusiastic contractors,material producers, equipment dealersand manufacturers. The staffs at nearlyevery exhibit area were pressedthroughout the day giving out literature,answering questions and, in general,just doing the job of being an exhibitorat ConExpo.ConExpo ’93 is one of the largest

private industry trade shows in theworld. It is produced and sponsored bythe Construction IndustryManufacturers Association (CIMA)and continued through March 25 in LasVegas, Nev.“The willingness to search for new

approaches to old problems,” saidConExpo General Chairman GaryGodbersen, “has brought the construc-tion industry to its present position.Without that willingness we would stillbe crossing rivers by ferry boat or working in iron-rafteredbuildings only a few stories tall.”That search for new construction ways and means

focused on ConExpo this year. This exposition originatedin 1909 in Columbus, Ohio, as the “Road Show” with 40exhibitors using 40,000 square feet of display space.About 1,000 persons came to that first exposition.Enhancing ConExpo’s worldwide stature were nationalexhibits by construction equipment associations fromGreat Britain and Italy, plus company exhibits fromGermany, Austria, Japan, Korea, France, Australia,Finland, Norway and others.“We anticipate that final figures will show some

100,000 construction-oriented people attended ConExpo’93,” said Dennis Slater, ConExpo exposition manager,“and a large percentage of these came from outside theUnited States.”A comprehensive series of educational seminars helped

make ConExpo ’93 a complete learning experience. The36 ConExpo sessions dealt with topics of particular inter-est to worldwide construction professionals and included

six sessions on road-related subjectssponsored by the International RoadFederation. Also, the TransportationResearch Board presented four ses-sions to share innovations emergingfrom its five-year StrategicHighway Research Program. Inaddition, the U.S. Small BusinessAdministration presented three edu-cational sessions on export-relatedtopics. CIMA 1993 Chairman JohnPanettiere pointed out: “ConExpo’seducational aspects with the uniqueopportunity afforded to attendees sothat they could interface with theengineers and designers of machin-ery being viewed and considered fortheir operations, and to make directcomparisons between variousequipment.”Concluded Godbersen: “Besides equipment and technol-

ogy, ConExpo ’93 could be the economic launching pad forthe construction industry. What attendees saw and heard atthe Show will give them business direction for the remainderof the decade and beyond.”CIMA and AGC combined major industry events in 1993,

providing construction influential people an unparalleled

opportunity to view the equipmentand technology that can enhance theirproductivity and professionalismthrough the ’90s. AGC’s annual con-vention with its CONSTRUCTORExposition ran concurrently withCIMA’s ConExpo ’93 InternationalConstruction Equipment Expositionin Las Vegas. The AGC convention

was held in the Las Vegas Hilton, Sahara and Riviera hotels,March 17 through 23 with indoor and outside exhibits at theHilton. ConExpo ’93 was held next door in the new LasVegas Convention Center, March 20 through 25. In addition

to sharing common show sites, both showsshared common show dates in adjoiningoutdoor and demonstration space.“The benefits of combining these two

major events were many,” commented AGCPresident Robins H. Jackson, chairman ofCedar Valley Corp., Waterloo, Iowa. “Thescope of exhibits provided contractors of allsizes with a comprehensive view of vitalequipment for all their operations,” Jacksonadded.“In addition,” stated CIMA’s 1993

Chairman John M. Panettiere, president ofBlount Inc., Forestry Division, Montgomery, Ala., “combin-ing our forces produced an event with a total of 950exhibitors using 1,108,000 net square feet of space-makingthis the biggest construction event in the world in 1993.”“Besides the thousands of contractors who came for the

events,” pointed out Gary Godbersen, ConExpo generalchairman and president of GOMACO Corp., Ida Grove,Iowa, “a large representation of federal, state, county andcity/town public works officials were on hand, creating aunique forum between the public and private sectors.”

Atlas Copco Implements New Visual Identity for EquipmentAtlas Copco will align the visual identity

of Dynapac rollers and pavers to be consis-tent with Atlas Copco branded equipment.The new identity launched in April 2013 atBauma in Munich.The Dynapac name will continue to be

prominently featured along with the AtlasCopco nomenclature. The color scheme willnow be yellow and grey, matching all AtlasCopco’s product lines, which include con-struction tools, portable compressorsand generators, and mining anddrilling equipment.Numeric model designa-

tions will not change with-in the new identity, butwill be used together withthe Dynapac name — AtlasCopco Dynapac F1000W,Atlas Copco DynapacCA2500, Atlas CopcoDynapac CC624, etc.Shawn Cheney, vice

president of Atlas CopcoRoad ConstructionEquipment USA, said, “Thechange supports Atlas CopcoConstruction Technique’s overallgoal to be the world leader in roadconstruction equipment. Presenting a

consistently uniform identity to the globalmarket fundamentally supports this goal.”The visual change also will strengthen

Dynapac, Cheney said. “First of all the Dynapac name is dom-

inantly visible in the product designation. Itshows we are combining the strengths ofAtlas Copco with the technological advan-tages of Dynapac. Second, we are clearlyhighlighting the ben-

efits of full integration with Atlas Copco,bringing the process and logistic advantagesthat such a strong group can offer.”

Cheney noted that althoughDynapac has been part of Atlas Copcosince 2007, few end

users knew Atlas Copco was behind newproducts developed specifically for theNorth American market and the upgradeswithin its distribution network. “The most important aspect of this newlook is the message it sends to customers— that Atlas Copco is determined to con-tinue Dynapac's rapid growth in the U.S.and make investments accordingly,”Cheney said. “The change in visualidentity is a statement of commitment, astatement of accountability."

Existing Dynapac dealers will beidentified as Atlas Copco RoadConstruction Equipment dealers,

Cheney said. The visualidentity transitional peri-od will differ from prod-uct to product anddepend on new productintroductions, but fullintegration should becomplete by 2014.For more informa-

tion, call 800/732-6762or visit www.atlascopcous.

WHILE SOME PEOPLE ARE HAVING A PROBLEM GRASPING THE CONCEPT,THEY’RE SURE NOT HAVING ANY DIFFICULTY GRABBING THE RESULTS.

It’s a rubber tire roller that vibrates with enough centrifugal force to equal the out-put of a 55,000 pound pneumatic. The GW750 handles the toughest HMA mixeswith ease, getting balanced high densities from the top through the bottom of themat. Great on SMA, too! And it provides a sound interlock between new overlaysand profiled surfaces. It’s bonus time!

Check one out at your Sakai dealer today.

Midland Model SPD-8 MakesShoulder/Berm Work Easier

The Midland Model SPD-8 roadwidener is designed to place shouldermaterials out 8 ft. (2.4 m) wide next tomain line pavements.

The SPD-8 has been upgraded toaccept the John Deere Tier IV versionof the 4.5 L engine and controls allowconveyor belt speed and on/off andspreader blade functions from theoperator’s control panel. The hopperand spreader blade are in full view infront of the operator with no fatiguinglooking back “over–the-shoulder “ towatch the spreading operations.

The SPD-8 easily changes overfrom right hand spreading to left handspreading by moving the operator’scontrols from right to left, movingright hand tools to transport positionand opening the left side blade to thedesired spread width.

For more information, visitwww.roadwidener.com.

Atmosphere of UncertaintyPrevails, Says CEO Suttonates the effects of various related and exter-nal factors in play currently and into the fore-seeable future.According to the report, the U.S. economy

is largely in the same position it has been infor the past six months, with improving fun-damentals weighed down by a number ofheadwinds resulting in subpar growth.Positive economic drivers noted in the reportinclude a recovering housing market, inex-pensive natural gas benefitting householdsand the industrial sector, solid auto sales, ris-ing consumer confidence, improving creditavailability for households and businessesand steady job gains. However, the reportnoted that a number of nagging headwinds,including fiscal consolidation, rising oilprices, and renewed fiscal policy tensions,continue to constrain growth.William G. Sutton, president of the foun-

dation and president and CEO of theEquipment Leasing and FinanceAssociation, said, “Equipment and softwareinvestment in 2013 continues to look like atale of two halves, with slower growth in thefirst half of the year and modest improve-ment forecast for the second half. However,an atmosphere of uncertainty prevails,spurred by current fiscal policy debates,including the looming debt-ceiling fight, anda stubbornly tepid U.S. and global econo-my.”Highlights from the study include:• The U.S. economy is expected to gener-ate positive but modest growth of 1.7percent in 2013.• Equipment and software investmentslowed from 3.1 percent annualizedgrowth in Q1 2013 to just 1.0 percent(quarter-to-quarter annualized) in Q2.The slower growth is a reflection ofbroader macroeconomic headwinds anduncertainty, but also categorical revi-sions to the Bureau of EconomicAnalysis’s equipment investmentaccounts. Looking ahead, a modestuptick in investment is expected throughthe end of the year, with an overall fore-cast of 3.3 percent growth in equipmentand software investment for 2013.• Overall, the outlook for credit marketsremains optimistic as investors continueto be risk-on, credit availability is steadi-ly increasing, and the Federal Reserve isexpected to maintain a near-zero short-term interest policy until economic con-ditions suggest otherwise.• Growth in equipment and softwareinvestment is expected to be mixed.Leading indicators point towards a pos-

sible stabilization in investment in agri-culture equipment. Fairly averagegrowth is expected for investment incomputers and software, construction,industrial, medical, and transportationequipment. Trends include:• Agriculture equipment investment isexpected to remain weak on a quarter-to-quarter basis, but unusually poor per-formance in Q3 2012 could translateinto positive annual growth in the sec-ond half of 2013.• Computers and software investment isexpected to grow at a slower pace thanhas been observed over the past severalyears. Annual growth should be in the 0to 3 percent range during Q3 and Q4 of2013.• Construction equipment investmentcontinued its rapid growth, up 38 per-cent year-over-year in the second quar-ter, as investment has continued to growat what is likely an unsustainable rate.Leading indicators all deceleratedrecently, suggesting that a negative cor-rection could occur within the nextthreeto six months.• Industrial equipment investment grew1.4 percent year-over-year in Q2 and isexpected to grow at a slightly faster ratein the second half of 2013.• Medical equipment investment indica-tors look bleak, suggesting little to nogrowth going forward.• Transportation equipment investment isexpected to improve some and growbetween 2 percent and 5 percent year-over-year moving forwardThe foundation produces the Equipment

number of permanent full-time positions theplant generated (from five to 10), more con-sistent estimates indicate the plant will gen-erate about considerable income for BoulderCity.

City of SunThat income is gladly welcomed. Boulder

City, once home to thousands who builtHoover Dam in the 1930s, has been strug-gling with a flagging local economy.Fortunately for the sunny desert town, 15years ago it bought up vast amounts of landto protect itself from the sprawling reach ofneighboring Las Vegas. The purchase included all the land around

the transmission lines leading to the dam andnow they are leasing that property to Sempraand others who want to use the lines.Attracting solar investment has provided a

much-needed boost to Boulder City’s econ-omy. According to a 2011 CNN report byTom Foreman, renting its land to solar devel-opers like Sempra brought in $2.5 million, oreleven percent of the city’s general fund.Although financed primarily by private

dollars, large solar installations like CopperMountain Solar still rely on governmentincentives to defray costs and make theupfront investment feasible.Copper Mountain Solar 1 received about

$40 million in federal investment tax creditsand another $12 million from the state ofNevada in sales and property tax abate-ments. The state’s investment is expected tobe recouped over time, with the project esti-mated to generate $35 million in tax revenueover the life of its 30-year lease. BoulderCity will collect an additional $60 millionover the course of the lease for renting theland to Sempra.

Solar is HotAlthough the U.S. solar industry lags

behind Europe’s, Jon Wellinghoff, chairmanof the Federal Energy RegulatoryCommission, said that solar is growing sofast, “it is going to overtake everything.” (perGreentech Media) Solar is a growing market. The U.S. solar

market had a strong first quarter in 2013,with 723 MW of solar PV capacity installed,a 33 percent increase in deployment levelsover the first quarter of 2012, according toGTM Research and the Solar EnergyIndustries Association. The United Statesnow has over 8,500 MW of cumulativeinstalled solar electric capacity, enough topower more than 1.3 million averageAmerican homes. That could be due in partto the fact that prices are falling. The samereport found that the average price of a solarpanel has declined by 60 percent since thebeginning of 2011. One solar PV system is currently being

installed in the United States every four min-utes. If market growth continues at its cur-rent pace, the report continues, the Americansolar industry could be installing a systemevery minute and twenty seconds by 2016.In fact, GTM has forecast this growth willcontinue throughout the year with 4,400MWof PV and 938MW of concentrating solarpower expected to come online by the end of2013.

Unique Aspects“As a general rule, Sempra U.S. Gas &

Power does not share [that] level of detail inrelation to how its facilities are constructed,”said Sempra spokesperson Jill Howard inresponse to inquiries about the constructionprocess.She did, however, point out several inno-

vative aspects of Copper Mountain Solar 1. “Copper Mountain Solar 1 is the first

renewable power plant to operate under aCalifornia Independent System Operator[CAISO] ‘pseudo-tie’ pilot program.” Participation in the program provides the

CAISO with critical data used to test andvalidate systems and procedures for man-agement of out-of-state variable resources. In support of CAISO’s new interconnec-

tion initiatives for renewable power genera-tors, the solar installation is also among thefirst solar power plants to implement a cus-tomized plant control system that providesactive power management. The systemallows the plant operations team to quicklyrespond to system requirements from a con-solidated control center, rather than manual-ly controlling individual units throughout thefacility.

Take TwoThe same increased consumer demand for

clean energy along with state policies man-dating increased renewable power produc-tion that drove Sempra U.S. Gas & Power’sdecision to focus on renewable energydevelopment led to a move to expand.Copper Mountain Solar 2 is a joint ven-

ture of Sempra U.S. Gas & Power andConsolidated Edison Development.Construction of the 150 MW first phaseexpansion, called Copper Mountain Solar 2,on the 1,100-acre site began in late 2011,creating 175 temporary construction jobsand eight positions to operate the facility.The first 92 MW of solar panels at Copper

Mountain Solar 2 were installed in late 2013,with the remaining 58 MW expected to becompleted by 2015. Power generated at the150-megawatt (MW) solar plant is sold toPacific Gas & Electric under a 25-year con-tract. When the second phase is finished, thesolar plant will be capable of generatingenough clean electricity to power about45,000 homes.

Third Time’s a CharmIn 2013 Sempra began construction of a

third expansion of its Copper MountainSolar complex, currently one of the largestphotovoltaic solar plants in the United StatesSituated on about 1,400 acres of land, Solar3 is a 250 MW solar project that will be thelargest polycrystalline solar project in theworld, capable of generating enough elec-tricity to power about 80,000 homes.Construction by developer AMEC has

already begun and is expected to create 300temporary construction jobs and 12 perma-nent operations jobs. When completed,power from the facility will be sold to theLos Angeles Department of Water andPower and the City of Burbank under a 20-year contract with the Southern CaliforniaPublic Power Authority. Scheduled for completion in 2015,

Copper Mountain 3 will use polycrystallinesolar panels, the most cost-effective of themain types of solar panels available on themarket. Solar panel manufacturer Trina Solar will

provide 1.1 million of its PV polycrystallinemodules. “This is the largest single installation

using polycrystalline modules that is cur-rently proposed, permitted and under con-struction, with PPA and financing in place,”said Mark Mendenhall, president of TrinaSolar Americas told Responding to ClimateChange. “As such, it is a first using this tech-nology in a single location of this size.”
