Lake Mead Water ProjectLooks to 2014 Completionhave put the project more than a year behindschedule and eaten up contingency funds. Las Vegas depends on the lake for about

90 percent of its drinking water supply. Twoother Lake Mead water intakes were builtalong with Hoover Dam. The thirdintake is designed to keep water flow-ing to Las Vegas even if droughtshrinks the lake below the level of thetwo existing straws. There are no divers in the pitch-

black, 53-degree water guiding thework. Workers at the surface usesonar, GPS sensors and a remote-con-trolled submarine to illuminate theghostly shape of the intake structuredecorated with logos from the waterauthority, the general contractor, VegasTunnel Constructors, and its parentcompany, the Italy-based Impregilo group. Unless Lake Mead shrinks to apocalyptic

levels, the decals will never again see thelight of day. Water from the intake will eventually flow

through a 23-ft. (7 m) tunnel being bored

beneath the lake bed by a $25 million exca-vator specially designed for the job. The machine has covered the first 340 ft.

(103 m) of its roughly 3-mi. (4.8 km) trip,water authority project liaison Robin Rockeytold the Review-Journal.

Excavation stopped in July 2010 and thenagain in December 2010, and a new routewas begun after drilling hit a fault and waterand debris flooded the work area 600 ft. (183m) underground. No one was injured, butsome mining equipment was lost.

Senate Passes Highway BillWorth $109B Over Two YearsThe Senate’s measure would spend $109

billion over about two years. It wouldincrease the amount of money available forstates by raising current spending levels totake into account inflation over the past sev-eral years. That’s still far short of the dollarsthat two congressional commissions havesaid are needed to maintain aging highways,bridges and rail systems while expanding thenation’s transportation network to accom-modate population growth between now and2050.The measure would reduce the number of

federal transportation programs by roughlytwo-thirds in an effort to eliminate duplica-tion. Senators preserved bicycle, pedestrian,safe routes to schools and rails-to-trails pro-grams, targeted for elimination byRepublicans, under a compromise thatmeans they would have to compete withother programs for money.For transit commuters, the bill would

extend, back to Jan. 1, a tax break that allowsthe deduction of up to $240 a month tax-freefrom their paychecks for expenses incurredtraveling to work. That had expired at theend of 2011.On the safety front, the bill would require

stricter federal oversight of the long-distanceand tour bus industries through deadlines forbuses to have seat belts, stronger roofs, anti-ejection windows and rollover crash avoid-ance systems. The bus industry carries about750 million passengers a year, roughly thesame as the domestic airline industry.Other safety provisions include requiring

that automakers provide rear seat-beltreminder systems to get children and otherbackseat passengers to buckle up, and testingchild safety seats in frontal and side impactcrashes.The bill would let Washington reward

states with extra safety money if they requiregraduated licenses for teenage drivers, per-mit police to pull over and ticket drivers forseat-belt and booster-seat violations, andmandate that convicted drunken drivers useignition-lock devices.Safety advocates criticized the broad

exemptions from federal commercial dri-ver’s licensing, vehicle inspection and othersafety requirements for agricultural trucksoperating with 150 miles of their farms.Farm lobbies said the rules hinder farmers’ability to get their products to market.The measure includes a provision similar

to an Obama administration proposal thatwould, for the first time, grant the FederalTransit Administration the authority to setand enforce safety standards for local transit

agencies. A 1964 law has barred the federalgovernment from doing just that.States would have greater discretion over

how to spend federal aid. But the bill wouldmean new requirements aimed at preventingwaste and ensuring that national goals aremet.A credit assistance program championed

by Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosathat helps leverage private investment fortransportation projects of national andregional significance would grow by tenfoldto $1 billion. In the past, the program hasgenerated as much as $30 in private capitalfor every $1 in aid.The measure will preserve or create 2.8

million jobs, the bill’s sponsors said. Buteconomists say the bill doesn’t create morejobs than if the same money was spent onsomething else.Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla., co-author of

the measure, said the bill “”probably will godown as one of the most significant pieces oflegislation this year.”One thing the bill would not do is resolve

how to keep the federal Highway Trust Fundsolvent beyond next year.The largest sources of money for the fund,

which pays for highway and transit pro-grams, are federal fuel taxes: 18.4 cents agallon for gasoline and 24.4 cents a gallonfor diesel. Revenue from those taxes hasdeclined since the economic downturn in2008 and because the fuel efficiency of carsand trucks is increasing.The bill would pay for highway programs

through a combination of fuel taxes, cuts toother federal programs and tax changes, butalso would drain the trust fund. Some sena-tors have criticized provisions that are sup-posed to pay for transportation programssince they would raise about $10 billion over10 years, but spend it in the first two years.Pointing to the large bipartisan vote in

favor of the bill, Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., urged House Republicans to considerpassing the Senate measure as it is “to avertany crisis.”“Why would they want to reinvent the

wheel?” Boxer asked.Michael Steel, a spokesman of House

Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said theHouse plan is to “take up something thatlooks like” the Senate bill “unless the Housecoalesces around a better alternative, whichwe are actively pursuing.”

Combs Construction WinsExcellence in Partnering AwardVicksburg’s U.S. Route 60 at Vicksburg

Road Roundabout was one of the most suc-cessful construction partnerships of 2011,the Associated General Contractors ofAmerica announced. As a result, the pro-ject’s contractor, Glendale-based CombsConstruction Company Inc., was one of onlythree projects to receive the association’sMarvin M. Black Excellence in PartneringAward.“The foundation of any successful project

is teamwork,” said Kristine Young, the asso-ciation’s president and the CEO of DesMoines, Iowa-based Miller the Driller.“When you have a group of dedicated,skilled people working together to achievethe same goal, anything is possible.”In collaboration with the Arizona

Department of Transportation and La PazCounty, the high volume four-way intersec-tion at U.S. Route 60 and Vicksburg Roadwas transformed into a safe, energy efficientroundabout. The project enhanced approxi-

mately 700 ft. (213 m) of roadway alongeach leg of the intersection. With a modifiedschedule that reduced project costs andincreased savings, Combs ConstructionCompany used brief closures of VicksburgRoad and one-lane sections of U.S. Route 60eliminating a temporary detour. Combinedwith 24-hour flagging, this partneredapproach and communication minimizedimpact to the community and reduced mate-rials costs.The Marvin M. Black Excellence in

Partnering Award recognizes unique andsuccessful partnerships needed to completecomplex construction projects. A panel ofjudges, representing all areas of construc-tion, evaluated a record number of projectsthat were completed in 2011, assessing con-tractors’ ability to resolve conflicts, the qual-ity of communications with all involved par-ties and the ability to get many groups toachieve one goal, among other key criteria.

Self-Powered Stolen VehicleRecovery System UnveiledLoJack Corporation introduced its next

generation, ruggedized stolen vehicle recov-ery system for construction equipment andcommercial vehicles at the American RentalAssociation’s “The Rental Show” in NewOrleans, La. This self-powered, radio fre-quency-based system is based on a propri-etary power management protocol, whichenables a battery life that can be warrantedup to seven years, far sur-passing the 30-day batterylife of even the most sophis-ticated GPS solutions. The next generation con-

struction equipment andcommercial vehicle recoverysystem is entirely self-con-tained (no wires) and doesnot require constant chargingto any power source. Thisnot only streamlines theinstallation process, but alsoenables the system to be installed on agreater array of equipment — especiallythose that do not have a power source suchas electric forklifts, solar-powered assets andequipment using alternative fuels. Becausethe battery is self-contained, the LoJackSystem can now be hidden in additionallocations on a piece of equipment, making itthat much more covert — and even moreeffective for tracking and recovering stolenconstruction equipment. “We developed this new LoJack System

in response to our customers, who have beenasking for a recovery solution that will pro-tect a broader array of equipment. Our cer-tified installers will be able to hide our newself-powered system in more places, whichwill make it that much more difficult foreven the savviest professional thieves todetect,” said Courtney DeMilio, seniordirector of national commercial sales,LoJack Corporation. “We are excited to be providing this self-

powered platform to the commercial indus-try, which has proven to be highly effectivein protecting cars, SUVs and light trucks.This customized, ruggedized system haspassed the highest level of testing with flyingcolors, enabling us to do what we do best —protecting equipment, vehicles and business-es from the financial losses due to theft —only now we are doing it even better.”Select manufacturers are now installing it

directly on their equipment and camouflag-ing it to match the exact color of themachine. This makes the LoJack Systemeven more covert and effective, according tothe manufacturer.

How the LoJack System Works The LoJack stolen vehicle recovery sys-

tem for construction equipment and com-mercial vehicles utilizes a small wirelessradio frequency transceiver — now self-powered — that is hidden in a piece ofequipment in one of many possible loca-tions. LoJack donates police tracking com-puters (PTCs) that are installed in police

cars, helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft usedby participating law enforcement agencies.Once equipment is reported stolen to thepolice, the product identification number ismatched to the LoJack system’s registrationnumber by state law enforcement comput-ers. After the match, the LoJack system isautomatically activated by police, whichcauses the small, hidden transceiver in theequipment to emit a silent signal. Lawenforcement vehicles and aircraft equippedwith LoJack PTCs follow these signals,which lead to the precise location of thestolen asset, even underground garages,barns and deeply wooded areas. Since entering the construction market in

2000, the LoJack system has helped lawenforcement recover more than 4,000LoJack-equipped stolen construction assetsworth nearly $125 million — plus the valueof other stolen non LoJack-equipped con-struction equipment that police recovered inchop shops and theft rings. Overall, theLoJack stolen vehicle recovery system hashelped recover more than 300,000 stolenvehicles worldwide worth nearly $4 billionsince inventing the stolen vehicle recoverymarket more than 25 years ago.

AvailabilityThe next generation stolen vehicle recov-

ery system for construction equipment andcommercial vehicles is available today. Theretail price of the installed system is a one-time cost of $795. Fleet discounts are avail-able. There are no monthly fees and noinstallation fees. For more information, visit

www.lojack.com.

The next generation construction equipment …recovery system is entirelyself-contained (no wires).

Caterpillar Takes Trade Writers on Tour of N.C. FacilityBy Giles LambertsonCEG CORRESPONDENT

Immerse trade writers for three days inCaterpillar small construction equipmentand what is the one-word takeaway?Engineering. Obviously, a lot of things aregoing on under that Caterpillar Yellow paint.“When the engineers talk to a customer to

see what a company values, and design it in,it shows up well in the new equipment,” saidDeke Yeargin, senior project engineer andsite manager of a Cat engineering and testfacility in Clayton, N.C. “If we can get ourengineers on the tractors, it gives them a bet-ter feel for what they are designing.” The 285-acre test property, developed

four years ago across N.C. 42 from Cat’sBuilding Construction Products (BCP)Division facility, is where engineers get allthe “seat time” they want to evaluate theirdesigns for backhoes, compact tractors, andsmall wheel loaders. The facility was touredby the trade writers as a prelude to introduc-tion of new models at the BCP.At the test site, a high-profile, open, all-

weather test building is a prominent verticalstructure. However, most of the developedacreage is given over to such landscape fea-tures as a concrete “deadman” wall for testmachines to push and pull against to validatecomputer tests, a ramped area for loadingand dumping exercises, a variable graderoad course, and a half-milebanked track with both grav-el and concrete surfaceareas. New generationengines are tested at this cen-ter — continuous, around-the-clock running — toestablish performance andendurance baselines. One open area of the site

is where new machines gettheir buckets and bladesdirty in red clay. To ensurethat comparisons betweenearthmoving machines arevalid, the soil is periodicallyexcavated 8 to 10 ft. deepand then layered and packedin 3 to 4-ft. strata so that theground consistency is uni-form top to bottom for eachnew dig. Such painstakingcare assures engineers that virtual and actualtest results are calibrated to known density.“We firmly believe these machines are

going to redefine the industry,” said JoelGrimes, senior marketing engineer for smallwheel loaders, standing next to one of the938K Series loaders produced by the inten-sive testing across the highway. For threedays at the BCP visitors center, Grimes andother Cat marketing personnel extolled the

latest generation of small and compactequipment rolled out in static and operatingdisplays. That the new machines redefine standards

of excellence seems to be a core claim of allnew Cat equipment powered by enginesmeeting Stage IIIA&B/Tier IV Interimemission standards. The idea is that cus-tomers buying the Cat Tier IV models —which necessarily are more expensive than

machines equipped with Tier 3 technology— will receive more for their money thanjust new power plants with lower emissionstandards.

K Series Small Wheel LoadersIn the case of the K Series loaders, the

extra value is in such dividends as the patent-ed shape of a bucket for load retention, andseparately dedicated hydraulic pumps for

front-load arms and steering so the perform-ance of neither is degraded at peak workingmoments. Another added value is a seat-mounted, adjustable, electronic joystick forcontrolling an implement.Of probably greater import is the reduced

rated-speed setting of Cat’s C6.6 ACERTengine — down to 1,800 rpm from 2,400rpm. Think what that means: getting thesame amount of work done from a slower-running engine. That translates into less fuelconsumption — a 30 percent reduction —and less noise for the operator, plus a longer-lasting engine because pistons are complet-ing fewer cycles per operating hour.More pluses: a “creeper control” that

delinks speed from rpm when additionalground power is the need. Cabin noisereduced to 66 decibels. An air intake for theengine moved to the rear from the sideswhere wheels are churning up dirt aroundthe hulking machines. (The K Series mightbe termed “small loaders,” but the smallestof them weighs 14 tons [12.7 t].) A passivediesel filter that automatically burns awayparticulates so filter maintenance is neces-sary only after 12 to 16,000 hours of opera-tion. An entire side of engine hooding thatswings up for easy access for mechanics.“Our message,” said Grimes, “is put the

fuel in the machine and run it.”

D Series Skid SteersThe new 272D and 292D

skid steers — including highperformance XHP models— meet Stage IIIB/Tier IVInterim emission standards,but that’s a given. Themachines feature a thickerfront-door panel glass (now½ inch) and an engine com-partment in the rear that issealed from the cabin andhydraulic lines in the front.Swinging up the hinged skidsteer cab — floor and all —now reveals a remarkablyaccessible and neatly laid outarea of hydraulic lines. The new skid steers also

ride on fully suspendedundercarriages, two torsionbars per side. The effect is amore comfortable ride,

longer undercarriage life, and better traction,perhaps especially on tracked skid steers.“Hooking it to the ground” is one of thevirtues of a machine running on belts, notedskid steer Senior Marketing Engineer KevinColeman, and Cat has “the longest belt in theindustry.”Other new features on the D Series skid

steers include a more powerful engine —

During a demonstration at the visitors center, an operator lowered the rear-facingbucket on a 308E, detached the boom from the bucket, used the boom to nudge thebucket around on the ground, and then reattached the boom to the now-front-fac-ing bucket — all within about a minute and without leaving the operator’s seat.

Kevin Hershberger of Caterpillar talks about mainte-nance access on a Cat F Series backhoe.

Joel Grimes, Cat’s senior marketing engineer for smallwheel loaders, discusses the 938K wheel loader.

ability to customize the machinewith the choice of engine andtrack options. A Kubota 24.8-hp (18.2 kW) diesel engineprovides enhanced torqueperformance designed forthose who use attachmentsrequiring greater engine torque.A Kohler EFI 27-hp (19.9 kW)gas engine will be available laterthis year. The EFI engine has anumber of benefits, such as lower

fuel consumption, easier maintenance, improved start-ing due to the elimination of the choke and cleaneremissions. A narrow 7-in. (17.8 cm) track provides a

smaller machine footprint for tightwork areas, such as land-scaping applicationsand residentialcons t ruc -

tion. The standard 9-in.-wide (22.9 cm) track offersreduced ground pressure for increased flotation and

stability.The S450TX is designed with a spring-cushioned platform that keeps opera-

tors out of the mud and debris.The platform features cushion-ing on the front and side foradditional support whenworking in rough terrain.An operator presence sys-tem suspends ground driveand attachment motion ifthe operator steps off themachine. LED lighting forwarning lights offers visi-bility and longevity. With arear panel and side shieldsfor greater service access,S450TX operators are offeredquicker maintenance and less

downtime on the job site, according tothe manufacturer.

HitchDoc’s Dual Dozer OffersIndependent Blade Operation

The Dual Dozer, manufactured by HitchDoc, was designed to provide the contrac-tor with enhanced accuracy and machine adaptability. The mount allows the bladeto operate independent of the skid steer and holds a grade by receiving a laser sig-nal simultaneously into each laser receiver sensor. The laser controlled grading boxis constantly and automatically adjusting on both right and left edges by twohydraulic cylinders, which maintain a precise grade level with a sub-grade accu-racy within one-eighth of an inch. The Dual Dozer attaches to a tractor three pointhitch and to most major brand skid steer models. The Dual Dozer is equipped withtwo blades, which allows forward and reverse grading.

Cat 272D, 299D Replace Their C Series Predecessors

The new Cat 272D skid-steer loader and299D compact track loader, replacing their CSeries predecessors, are now joined by a pairof high-performance counterparts, the 272DXHP and 299D XHP, which are the largest,most powerful skid-steer and compact trackloaders Caterpillar has ever built. The new DSeries models build on the features of the CSeries by adding a more powerful engine,the Cat C3.8, which meets Stage IIIB andTier IV Interim emissions standards, and byincorporating design features that furtherenhance lifting, digging and work-tool per-formance, according to the manufacturer.The electronically controlled Cat C3.8

engine, designed with a high-pressure com-mon-rail fuel system for operating efficien-cy, is equipped with the Cat NOx reductionsystem and a diesel particulate filter foremissions control. Net-horsepower increasesfor the new D Series models range from 5 to18 percent and flywheel torque is increasedfrom 13 to 27 percent. The new engine usesa redesigned air-intake flow path for addedefficiency, and a dealer-installed pre-cleanerkit is available for dusty, dirty applications.Larger lift cylinders on all four new D

Series models provide a 19-percent boost in

lifting force, compared with C Series mod-els. An available electrically activated quickcoupler replaces the previously usedhydraulically actuated coupler, allowing asimpler design that eliminates hydrauliclines, connectors and valves. Self-relievingquick disconnects allow work tool changesto be made quickly and easily.Caterpillar’s “Intelligent Leveling” sys-

tem (ILEV) enables three industry exclusivefeatures: electronic dual self level, work toolreturn to dig and work tool positioner. Theelectronic dual self level levels the load bothwhen raising and lowering. This new elec-tronic system also is a plus for reliability,using no hydraulic valves, lines or connec-tors. The work tool return-to-dig feature auto-

matically lowers the lift arms and returns thework tool to a preset angle, increasing pro-ductivity and decreasing cycle times. Thework tool positioner feature automaticallyreturns the work tool to a preset angle,increasing productivity and quality by allow-ing the work tool (cold planer, forks,trencher, wheel saw, etc) to be returned to apreset angle, even after the machine has beenrepositioned. In the cab of D Series models

is a new dial-type hand throttle, and elec-tronic throttle pedal that provides a “decel”feature when at high idle.

272D/299DNet power for the 272D and 299D is up 5

percent, from 90 to 95 hp (67 to 71 kW), andpeak torque is increased by 14 percent, pro-viding a significant power increase for thesemodels. A robust, 23-gpm (86.4 Lpm) auxil-iary hydraulic system allows efficient use ofa broad range of work tools on these models,the optional 32-gpm (120 Lpm ) High FlowXPS system, operating at 4,061 psi (28,000kPa), yields heavy-duty performance andincreased productivity.Rated operating capacity for the 272D is

3,200 lbs. (1,450 kg), and for the 299D,2,975 lbs. (1,350 kg ) at 35-percent of tip-ping load. Capacity for the 299D rated at 50-percent of tipping load is 4,250 lbs. (1,928kg). An optional counterweight kit increasesrated operating capacity of these machines to3,450 lbs. (1,565 kg) and 4,500 lbs. (2,041kg), respectively. Operating weights are8,404 lbs. (3,812 kg ) and 10,866 lbs. (4,942kg), respectively.

272D XHP/29D XHPNet power for the 272D XHP and 299D

XHP is 106 hp (79 kW) and peak torque is277 lb./ft. (375 Nm). Rated operating capac-ity is 3,600 lbs. (1,633 kg) for the 272D XHPand 3,185 lbs. (1,445 kg) for the 299D XHPat 35 percent of tipping load. At 50 percentof tipping load, the rated operating capacityof the new Compact Track loader increasesto 4,550 lbs. (2,064 kg). Operating weightfor the 272D XHP is 9,304 lbs. (4,220 kg )and 11,647 lbs. (5,283 kg ) for the 299DXHP. These two new high-performance models

are equipped with a 40-gpm (150 Lpm),high-flow hydraulic system operating at4,061 psi (28,000 kPa) and producing 94hydraulic hp (71 kW), providing the capabil-ity to efficiently handle the largest ofhydraulically powered work tools. Both the272D XHP and 299D XHP models includemany features as standard such as enclosedcab with air conditioning, air-ride seat,AMICS system and speed sensitive ridecontrol.For more information, visit

By Ramit Plushnick-MastiASSOCIATED PRESS

HOUSTON (AP) A Canadian company that wants tobuild a 1,700-mi. (2,735-km) oil pipeline through the U.S.heartland to the Texas Gulf Coast will be ready within weeksto submit plans for a new route that avoids the environmen-tally sensitive Nebraska Sandhills region, a TransCanadaexecutive said March 6. TransCanada also plans to begin construction on the

pipeline’s southern tier from Cushing, Okla., to Texas by latespring or early summer, said Alex Pourbaix, president ofTransCanada’s energy and oil pipelines division. The contentious pipeline is designed to bring oil from

Canada’s tar sands region in Alberta to refineries along theTexas Gulf Coast. The upper portion of the pipeline requiresU.S. State Department approval because it crosses an inter-national border, while the southern tier will need standardfederal permits that Pourbaix believes will be ready shortly. The State Department, backed by President Barack

Obama, recently rejected the longer project, sayingTransCanada needed to find a route that would avoid theSandhills and the Ogallala Aquifer, a key water source foreight states. At the time, Obama encouraged TransCanada topursue the southern portion of the pipeline that would, in theshort term, relieve a bottleneck of crude at Midwesternrefineries.

Pourbaix said that part of the pipeline would be ready by2013. “We’ll be taking care of that bottleneck between Cushing

and the Gulf Coast,” Pourbaix told reporters after speakingon a panel at a Houston energy conference. That southern tier, he added, would relieve the problem

only in the short term. Having that portion ready in advancealso will not shorten the two-year construction timeline forthe longer pipeline, Pourbaix said, due to the severe wintersin the northern United States that prevent construction dur-ing those months. In the long term, Canada wants to get more oil to market.

Without the longer Keystone pipeline that isn’t possible.Pourbaix said as long as Keystone is completed by 2015, theprospects for other alternative western routes that wouldinstead take the product to China and the Far East are notlikely to get approved. Right now, Pourbaix believes Keystone XL can meet the

2015 deadline despite the permitting delays. He said thecompany is working closely with the Nebraska governmentto find new routes and has identified several corridors thatwill be made public in a few weeks. It appears the new plan will require about 20 mi. (32 km)

of additional pipe, and about a 100-mi. (160 km) to 110-mi.(177 km) reroute around the Sandhills, Pourbaix said. “Imagine a jog around the Sandhills,” he said. “We’re

talking about a relatively modest jog around the Sandhills.”

TransCanada Executive: Plans for NewRoute Will be Ready Within Weeks

Construction employment rose in 28 states and theDistrict of Columbia between January 2011 and January2012, while 20 states lost construction jobs and two heldsteady — the best net positive showing for state constructionemployment since 2007, according to an analysis by theAssociated General Contractors of America of LaborDepartment data. Thirty-five states and D.C. added con-struction jobs between December 2011 and January, while13 states had decreases for the month and two states had nochange.“There is accumulating evidence that construction has

passed its low point in a majority of states, although shrink-ing public construction will hold down the improvement inmany locations,” said Ken Simonson, the association’s chiefeconomist. “Moreover, the gains this January partly reflectvery mild weather this winter and exceptionally cold andsnowy conditions a year before.”Simonson noted that Pennsylvania (13,000, 6.0 percent)

added the most construction jobs between January 2011 and2012, while North Dakota had the largest percentage gain(16.1 percent, 3,600 jobs). Tennessee was second in bothtotal and percent gains (12,500, 12.0 percent).The economist said that among the 20 states that lost con-

struction jobs during the past year, Florida (minus 21,500,minus 6.3 percent) lost the most, followed by Illinois (minus9,500, minus 4.8 percent). Alabama (minus 9.0 percent,minus 7,300) lost the highest percentage, followed byNevada (minus 8.1 percent, minus 4,800). Simonson addedthat construction employment remained unchanged for theyear in Maine and Nebraska.

California (8,900, 1.6 percent) added the most construc-tion jobs between December 2011 and January 2012, fol-lowed by Texas (8,300, 1.5 percent). Connecticut (6.3 per-cent, 3,100) experienced the highest percentage increase inconstruction employment, followed by Kansas (5.8 percent,3,100).

Thirteen states lost construction jobs for the month, led byFlorida (minus 6,200, minus 1.9 percent) and followed byNew York (minus 5,200, minus 1.7 percent). Meanwhile,Rhode Island (minus 5.5 percent, minus 900) lost the high-est percentage of construction jobs between December andJanuary. Indiana and Wyoming experienced no change inconstruction employment for the month, Simonson added.Association officials said the improving construction

employment data was welcome news, and added that theywere working hard to make sure the trend continues. Theynoted they were working to get Congress to act on a numberof long-delayed infrastructure measures, including the sur-face transportation bill and to set long-term tax rates thatimpact many of the association’s members.“Even as the private sector continues to build steam, we

want to make sure federal actions, and inactions, don’t holdthe construction industry back,” said Stephen E. Sandherr,the association’s chief executive officer. “Setting infrastruc-ture investments levels and establishing some kind of taxcertainty would complement the growing private sectordemand for construction and help put even more peopleback to work.”

Caltrans and the Contra Costa Transportation Authority(CCTA) announced March 9 that work has begun on thenext phase of the State Route 4 Widening Project in ContraCosta County. The 2006 voter-approved transportationbond, Proposition 1B, contributed $26.7 million of the pro-ject’s $63 million cost.“This is a critical project to relieve congestion in this

growing area,” said Acting Caltrans Director MalcolmDougherty. “The people of Contra Costa County can clearlysee that their taxpayer dollars are being put to work to bene-fit this region.”After the highway is widened, Bay Area Rapid Transit

(BART) will add a new mass transit service to easternContra Costa County in the widened highway’s median. TheSR-4 widening and BART project represent a combined

investment of more than $1 billion to address one of the mostcongested corridors in the Bay Area.In total there are five planned construction projects to

widen SR-4, its interchanges, and local roadways from westof Loveridge Road to the State Route 160 interchange. Thetotal cost to widen SR-4 is estimated at $554 million, includ-ing $72.2 million from Proposition 1B. The BART project,which will start service shortly after completion of the high-way widening, is funded from Contra Costa's 2004 trans-portation sales tax Measure J, Proposition 1B, and otherlocal and regional sources.“Caltrans is committed to improving mobility throughout

California,” stated Caltrans District 4 Director Bijan Sartipi.“This commitment includes partnering with our local con-gestion management and transit agencies to provide new

transportation options for east Contra Costa County com-muters.”“This project serves as a strong validation for Contra

Costa County voters, who passed Measure J to pay for trans-portation improvements along the SR- 4 corridor, as well asother key transportation projects in the county,” stated DonTatzin, CCTA Chair. “This local revenue source has made allthe difference in our ability to move this project along onschedule and put Contra Costa residents back to work.”The prime contractor for the project is CC Myers Inc. of

Rancho Cordova. To date, the state has allocated more than $11 billion in

Proposition 1B funds for transportation purposes statewide.For more information, visit http://widensr4.org.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP)Demolition of a commemorative walk-way at the foot of the Golden GateBridge recently started, angering somewho thought the bricks they bought andinscribed with the names of loved oneswould be permanent. Workers hidden by a construction

fence began tearing up the path of7,500 bricks as part of a visitor centerrenovation southeast of the bridge onthe San Francisco side of the span. Thedemolition was necessary because thesteepness of the walkway did not com-ply with the Americans withDisabilities Act, bridge officials said. “We’re not just ripping out the bricks

for the sake of ripping out bricks. Thecurrent walkway is too steep,” bridgedistrict spokeswoman Mary Currie toldthe San Francisco Chronicle. The newspaper reports individuals

paid between $32 and $75 for the cus-tom bricks installed to celebrate the

bridge’s 50th anniversary in 1987,three years before the disabilities actbecame law. The renovation could notgo forward without bringing the site incompliance with the act, Currie said. Tom Libby of San Francisco bought

a brick to honor his partner, CliffOchampaugh, who died of AIDS thesame year the walkway was built.Libby called the demolition “callous.” Bridge officials tried to have the

bricks removed one by one but foundthat they broke, Currie said. To mollifythose upset over the walkway’sdestruction, the bridge district hasplanned three ways to preserve itsmemory. The new visitor center is slated to

include an outdoor panel engraved withall 7,500 inscriptions from the bricks.Digital photos of each brick will bemade available, and a Google Earthapp that shows the original walkway isin the works.

The California Transportation Commission(CTC) recently allocated $253 million in newfunding to 30 projects that will improve the state’stransportation system and strengthen California’seconomic recovery. “From one end of the state to the other, trans-

portation projects are providing good paying jobswhile at the same time reducing traffic congestionfor people and businesses in California,” saidActing Caltrans Director Malcolm Dougherty.The allocations include $206 million from

Proposition 1B, a transportation bond approvedby voters in 2006. In total, nearly $12 billion inProposition 1B funds have been allocatedstatewide.

The remaining $47 million in allocations camefrom assorted transportation accounts funded bystate and federal dollars.Among the projects that received funding allo-

cations today were:$47 million to the San Luis Obispo Council of

Governments for the construction of the thirdphase of widening Hwy. 46 East from just east ofAlmond Drive to just east of McMillan CanyonRoad in San Luis Obispo County.$4.5 million to the Santa Barbara County

Association of Governments (SBCAG) for theextension of Fowler Road from Fairview Avenueto Kellogg Avenue and for the extension of EkwillStreet to Kellogg Avenue in the City of Goleta.

Journalists Get Up-Close, Personal With Cat Engineering

with net horsepower increases among themodels ranging from 5 to 18 percent — a 19percent boost in lifting force, and electrical-ly activated quick couplers instead ofhydraulically operated couplers. The skidsteers also offer Cat’s “Intelligent Leveling”system that keeps buckets level when beingraised and lowered, automatically returns abucket to a preset position and angle afterunloading, and repositions work tools to pre-set stations for more uniform and easieroperation.“These can mean a serious increase in

productivity,” Coleman said. The array of attachments for skid steers

continues to grow. Some of the tools on dis-play at the visitors center included augurswith easy-off replacement tips, a 7-in. plan-er, and a mulcher with replacement teethnow attached by one bolt instead of two forquicker change-overs. By such attention todetail is valuable downtime shaved.

E Series Mini-ExcavatorsCat mini-excavators are especially popu-

lar in Europe. Contractors working inEurope’s older cities where smaller build-ings are connected by narrow alleyways canutilize the small machines in lieu of hand-held shovels and other implements. Suchtight work sites demand features like themini-excavators’ laterally moveable tracksthat hydraulically shrink to the width of theoperator’s cabin. How popular are the littlemachines on the Continent? Ten of the smallCat excavators are snapped up by Europeancontractors for every one sold in the UnitedStates.The five new models of the E Series are

fitted with engines meeting Stage IIIA/Tier 4Interim emission standards, as required of

engines with less than 75 hp. They also havehigher ambient cooling systems, more effi-cient hydraulic systems, and redesigned con-trol layouts. Horsepower in the largest of theexcavators, the 308E, was boosted 20 per-cent, as was the hydraulic output. Each model has a new digital control

panel, called COMPASS, which regulatescontinuous hydraulic oil flow for operatorease, and a scaled hydraulic system so anoperator can match his hydraulic needs to atask. COMPASS also contains an “EcoMode” feature to conserve fuel, and analphanumeric anti-theft element that requiresa password for operation.It also offers a fast decoupling system.

During a demonstration at the visitors center,an operator lowered the rear-facing bucketon a 308E, detached the boom from thebucket, used the boom to nudge the bucketaround on the ground, and then reattachedthe boom to the now-front-facing bucket —all within about a minute and without leav-ing the operator’s seat.

F Series Backhoe LoadersCaterpillar has built some 250,000 back-

hoes over 27 years. “In general, backhoesare utility machines,” said KevinHershberger, another Cat senior marketer,“but to some customers they are concernedabout productivity.” The comment reflects on the versatility of

the backhoe, which has been around fornearly 60 years. It was the handy piece ofequipment contractors and others turned tofor clean-up and small-scale digging. Insome respects, it was a predecessor of theskid steer, though the load volumes involvedare different.The three models in the Caterpillar F

Series have Tier 4-compliant engines. Only

the larger 430F model has more horsepowerthan its predecessor, but the backhoes haveimproved lift characteristics: The maximumdump height has been increased 7 percent toget the bucket up and over the side of multi-axle dump trucks; the lift arms have 13 per-cent more lift capacity; bucket breakoutforce was boosted by 9 percent.“The whole point is to deliver a machine

that’s going to be earning money instead ofcosting money,” Hershberger said. To thatend, the machine’s passive regenerationchamber automatically incinerates particu-lates, producing better productivity and fuelperformance.Downtime considerations designed into

the F Series include large side panel swing-aways for wide-open access to the engine formaintenance technicians and a hinged cool-ing pack that gives additional clearance. Onenotable convenience feature for maintenancein shop or field is a relocated battery. It nowsits in the nose of the machine. For jump-starting, remote battery attachment postswere moved to one side of the machine forunfettered access.

K2 Series Track-Type TractorsThe Cat C4.4 ACERT engines meet Stage

IIIB/Tier IV Interim emission standards andproduce 8 percent more power in the doing.The “Eco Mode” fuel saving feature canimprove fuel economy 25 percent by auto-matically controlling engine speed at opti-mal levels.The more interesting features are closer to

the ground. A function called “Stable Blade”uses sensors to subtly reposition a blade infinish grade applications, rather than havingan operator constantly adjust the blade. Thismeans more uniform finish grades producedin less time. One official at the equipment

rollout likened the K2 with Stable Blade to“a small grader.”A “Power Pitch” feature lets the operator

adjust the pitch of the blade, moving the topforward or back, so that the blade can pushmore straight up and down, then be backedoff during lift-and-carry. Pushing isenhanced by “Traction Control,” whichsenses when a track is slipping in moist earthand slows the track to increase grip. In thatway, a blade can be kept in position longer inless than optimum conditions. The cabins on the K2 tractors are still

comfortably laid out, but now the operator’sseat can be heated or ventilated, according toneed, and the joystick handle can be warmedto the touch as well.

TL1255C TelehandlerThis extendable-boom piece of equip-

ment is a specialty machine, with 80 percentof smaller models rented from rental yardsonly as needed. In Europe, the telehandlersare most often found on farms stacking bigbales or gently lifting sick cows over a lotfence. Commercial applications include rais-ing construction materials and small equip-ment to a rooftop.The new 1225C is the largest machine in

the C series with a maximum lift of 6 tons(5.4 t) and a lift height of 54 ft. (16.5 m). Itcan extend 42 ft. (12.8 m) laterally. Theengine meets Stage IIB/Tier IV Interimemission standards, develops 142 hp (105.8kW), and can burn B20 biofuel.The power-shift transmission has 4 for-

ward and 3 reverse speeds. A single joystickcontrols boom lift and extension, with a but-ton for work tool tilt function.

Dynapac’s 624 Put to Test on Thin-Lift Overlay ProjectWhen Silver Star Construction Co. in Moore, Okla.,

decided to add an 84-in. (213 cm) asphalt roller to its fleet,Craig Parker, executive vice president of Silver Star, knewhe needed objective information before he made an invest-ment.

“I needed something more definitive in my hand to makethe decision — not just other people’s opinion,” said Parker.“I needed something I could hang my hat on, so I set up aroller demo.”

Test DayParker invited recognized road construction equipment

manufacturers and their local dealer representatives, includ-ing Dynapac and local dealer CL Boyd, a manufacturer ofoscillatory rollers and another roller manufacturer with a ver-tical vibration system.

The next step was to put the rollers to the test. Parker,along with Jack Shannon, asphalt superintendent, and JanGraham, asphalt foreman, arranged the demonstration totake place on a 2,000-ft. (610 m) section of a longer 7-mi. (11 km) Oklahoma Department of Transportation(DOT) thin-lift overlay project. On May 18, 2011, theSilver Star team and representatives from the three rollermanufacturers put them to work. An Oklahoma DOTinspector also was on site to ensure compliance with the pro-ject’s specifications.

Parker went to great lengths to keep the demonstration fairfor each participant.

• The 7-mi. project allowed plenty of room for each rollerto operate on its own 2,000-ft. test section within thesame mile of each other.

• Silver Star set up the demonstra-tion area in the middle of the7-mi. section to ensurethe asphalt plant wasfully calibratedand running aconsistent mixprior to thedemo.

• The weatheron the chosen daywas forecast to beexcellent, which it was.This helped keep thetemperatures of the mix

consistent.• An independent testing lab was on-site to gather and ana-

lyze the data.“I wanted to be as absolutely independent and accurate as

possible. This was the only way I could get a fair analysis,and there couldn’t be any arguments about possible differ-ences in conditions,” explained Parker.

Sitting in a vertical line approximately 2,000 ft. apart, eachroller ran one at a time on its test section to have a consistentrun. Each roller began in breakdown mode behind the paver.Technicians from the independent testing lab checked theroller patterns behind each roller from the time it got on themat and then after each vibratory pass or breakdown pass.

“We tested behind every pass each rollermade to look at the compaction resultseach one achieved,” said Parker.

Once the results were gathered from thebreakdown mode, the

demo roller moved to the back of the compaction train. Arubber-tired roller was used between the breakdown rollerand the finish roller. The demo roller was tested as a finishroller in the next test section so it was tested in both areas.

As the demonstration progressed, the results were notimmediately available, but Parker was careful not to rush thetechnicians.

“The test lab can’t always keep up with gathering theresults as you’re moving the train along,” explained Parker.“It took until the end of the day for me to get the results inhand and analyze them.”

Parker pointed out that prior to the demo, he was gettingbiased and conflicting information about the rollers he wascomparing, so he was a bit surprised by what the resultsrevealed.

Silver Star’s crews had been familiar with oscillatory andvertical amplitude vibratory rollers from past projects. Goinginto the demo, they felt the 84-in. oscillatory roller wouldperform better.

Silver Star’s crews also had experience with multiplesize drums, but as Parker pointed out, “Each drum size isgoing to compact differently on the job. Just because a 66-inch drum in one brand is better than another that may not

be the case when you get to a different size. I knew what thetest results showed on the 66-inch side of the equation, buton the 84-inch side it was something totally different.”

Parker remained neutral. “I told my crew that we were going to look at whichever

one did the best on the job, and then compare the prices. We

Dates Set for Terex Bid-Well Spring Paving Service SchoolsTerex Roadbuilding has

announced two spring paving serv-ice school dates for Terex Bid-Wellautomatic roller pavers and work-bridges. The two-day training ses-sions are scheduled for April 26 andApril 27, and May 2 and May 3.The classes will be held in SiouxFalls and Canton, S.D. Created specifically for paver

owners, operators, service techni-cians and inspectors, the serviceschool strikes a balance betweenclassroom instruction and hands-onfield demonstrations. The classesoffer in-depth discussion for paverand workbridge set-up, operationand service, and are taught by sea-soned service and field instructors,according to Terex. “Students will learn how to spec

and set up our pavers for some ofthe most complex paving applica-tions, and we cover what options are available to improvepaving efficiency,” said Dean Johnson, service manager ofTerex Bid-Well. “We also discuss the symptoms of machineaging, what to look for and how to diagnose and correctissues.” The first day features in-class discussion and instruction at

the Best Western Ramkota Hotel and Conference Center in

Sioux Falls, S.D. The series of lectures include: bridge, air-port, highway and slope paving techniques; machine set-up;texture and curing; controller adjustment and troubleshoot-ing; skewed deck paving; screed rail and chair set-up; andthin-bonded overlays. “We have designed the classes for contractor interaction

with instructors and each other,” said Aron Sweeney, service

school coordinator. Day two includes a shuttle to

Canton for hands-on pavingdemonstrations with Terex Bid-Well pavers, where students puttheir classroom training into prac-tice. Instructors show the studentsproper paver set-up and operationfor standard as well as skewedpours. The final highlight of theday is a guided tour of the new80,000 cu. ft. Terex Bid-Welloffice and manufacturing facility. For class registration or for more

details, visit www.bid-well.com.Registration deadline is one weekprior to the session date. There isno limit to the number of attendeesa company can send, but classroomsize is capped at 50. Tuition for the two-day class is

Silver Star Construction Co.Gives Roller Two Thumbs Upwere willing to spend more money if neededto get the roller that did the best job gettingcompaction. If you start having trouble withdensities, you can run into several thousanddollars very quickly. If you can avoid thatjust by having the correct equipment on thejob, it is money well spent.”

Analyzing the ResultsCompared to an oscillatory system, the

Dynapac employs a standard or verticalcompaction method. On the test section, theDynapac 624 took half a pass more to get thesame compaction density as the oscillatoryroller. However, as Parker explained, “Youstill have to complete that half a pass. Thereare no savings on time or effort on that half apass.”

The Dynapac 624 also offered Silver Starmore flexibility since it could be successful-ly used on thin-lift applications less than 2 in.(5 cm), such as the test section, or on thickerlift applications greater than 2 in. Because ofDynapac’s use of traditional compaction

with a higher amplitude setting, Silver Starcan use the 624 on mainline operationswhere they are doing inlays.

“We just completed an inlay project on theTurner Turnpike,” said Parker. “That opera-tion was a 3-inch lift and a 2-inch lift. It wasa mainline, high-production operation, and itperformed very well.”

Silver Star meets its tonnage-per-hourproduction goals with the DynapacCC624HF. As Silver Star continues to put itsnew roller to work, it also continues to liveup to the test results and performance expec-tations of the crew. Silver Star’s crews, andespecially asphalt superintendent JackShannon, also agree that the 624 was theclear choice.

“[Jack] and I had a very frank conversa-tion, and if he had been very insistent ongoing with [the oscillatory roller], I wouldhave listened to him,” said Parker. “But onceI showed him the test data and went over itwith him, he was perfectly happy with theway we went, and has been happy with themachine ever since.”

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!
