Plote President Attributes 50 Years of Success to FoundersBy Giles LamberstonCEG CORRESPONDENT

The headquarters of PloteConstruction Inc. hugs the northside of Jane Addams MemorialHighway, a leg of I-90 some 30 mi.west of downtown Chicago.Overlooking a Chicagoland toll-way is a perfect setting for Plote’sexecutive offices because high-ways have been good for the com-pany.The Hoffman Estates property

has been in the Plote family since1966, some 10 years after theNorthwest Tollway (renamed forAddams in 2007) was built adja-cent to it. The era’s expansion ofthe nation’s highway systemthrough the northwest sub-urbs of Chicago thus crossedpaths with Ray Plote. Therest is company history.Dan Plote, president of

Plote Construction Inc., saidit was “coincidental” that hisfather and mother were liv-ing in the path of the westerndrift of The Windy City.“Propitious” might betterdescribe it, for Ray and JanPlote were in the right placeat the right time and recog-nized a business opportunitywhen they saw it.

Getting StartedThe couple each grew up

in a rural area 10 mi. east oftoday’s headquarters build-ing. After high school, RayPlote left his father’s farm tomove dirt in the area withdozers, scrapers and other pieces ofheavy equipment. On the side, hehired three helpers and started anexcavation and demolition compa-ny. Four years later — make that50 years ago — he and his wifewent all in and formed PloteConstruction.Plote began contracting work

running a 50-hp Caterpillar 933track loader. He steadily built afamily-run company that todayoperates 300 pieces of heavyequipment — still predominatelyCat — along with a fleet of heavytrucks, numerous crushers, andfive asphalt and two concreteplants. In all, some 600 pieces ofequipment rumble and roll fromPlote equipment yards in 2014. The company workforce has

kept pace, growing from a handfulin 1964 to more than 600 during atypical construction season.Employees are spread among 10divisions that range from residen-tial development and commercialproperties to quarried materials,and asphalt and concrete plants —as well as satellite aggregate andconstruction operations in thefracking oil fields of North Dakota.“The foundation of the family

businesses is Plote Construction,”Dan Plote said of all this diversifi-cation. “The real estate division ishere today because of the construc-tion division. Obviously one divi-sion works with the other on occa-sion, but construction is still thefoundation and main business, byfar.” He estimates 85 percent of

business volume is generated byconstruction activity.The various construction indus-

try enterprises come together inwhat Plote calls “a complete pack-age — soup to nuts. We can grade,do the utilities, supply the aggre-gate, pave it, and have our con-struction management team man-age the entire process from designto completion.”

Calculated ExpansionThis vertical integration of

Plote’s construction industry com-ponents is a competitive asset forthe company, Dan Plote said, andstems from early decisions madeby his father. As a contractor, RayPlote quickly grew restive aboutbuying gravel from local quarries

for trucking to customers.“He wanted to be his own best

gravel customer,” Dan Plote said.So five years into his businessplan, Ray Plote bought a gravel piton Beverly Road in HoffmanEstates and turned it into BeverlyMaterials. It now is the main officefor an aggregates operation thatmost recently added a limestonequarry in Belvidere. This pattern of developing

downline divisions continued asPlote Construction moved fromexclusively moving dirt to becom-ing a full-service construction con-tractor. “He was tired of paying anasphalt paver to pave after he hadgraded a project, and of hiring con-crete pavers, so he started his ownasphalt company and then we

bought out a concrete paving com-pany. We eventually expandedboth of those to meet the needs ofthe growing 1970s, 80s and 90s.”Dan Plote has continued to fold

construction services into the com-pany to build out an integratedportfolio. “The more business youcan keep inhouse, the better offyou are. And the greater the relia-bility as well, because you are rely-ing upon yourself to supply you.You’re not depending on third-party suppliers.”Today Plote Construction

enjoys what Dan Plote calls “asteady, collective growth of alldivisions” of the construction com-pany. He describes the volume ofwork in off-the-cuff terms: “We are

Ray Plote started a small excavating company with just threeemployees, working at another machine company during the dayjust to make his own payroll.

(L-R): Dave, Jan, Ray, and Dan Plote.In 1964, Ray and his wife Jan Plote founded what is now knownas Plote Construction Inc.

Ind. Contractor Purchases Gorilla Hammer That ‘Rocks’Boyd and Company, a construc-

tion company out of Washington,Ind., and Gorilla Hammers, theattachment division of TechHydraulics, are family-ownedbusinesses that take a true partner-ship approach toward serving andworking with its customers. As growth is the common thread

that runs through all of the Boydoperations, store manager KevinStevens felt that they should add totheir list of equipment offerings bybringing on a hydraulic breakerline. In his search for a line thatwould fit with Boyd’s philosophy

of outfitting their customers withquality parts and equipment thatdeliver a high return on invest-ment, Stevens met with GorillaHydraulic Breakers’s Bob Tedescoand liked what he saw and heardfrom the company president.The Gorilla Hammer line has

helped the dealership develop astrong customer base as area con-tractors see the quality of the ham-mers, according to Boyd and SonsMachinery sales representativeEric Evans.One such satisfied customer is

Sam Yoder of Indian CreekQuarries LLC. Yoder, who operat-ed an excavating company, initial-ly purchased five acres of land inWilliams, Ind., to gain access togravel for his own operation. Yoderquickly realized the potential of thesite and approached David Graber,who owned the land around hisproperty, with the idea of joining

forces and expanding the quarryoperation. The resulting Indian Creek

Quarries, LLC turned out muchlarger than Yoder had originallyenvisioned. The quarry, which wasfounded two years ago, encom-passes 70 acres and produced morethan half a million tons of crushedlimestone in 2013. When the quarry needed a ham-

mer to pre-work the materials thatits crushing and screening plantcouldn’t handle, Yoder purchasedanother brand that malfunctioned.That’s when Yoder approachedEric Evans of Boyd and SonsMachinery LLC. Together, theydiscussed the quarry’s require-ments and Evans recommended aGorilla GHB155 hydraulic ham-mer. “It’s an animal, we used it tobreak over 10,000 tons of over-sized cap rock a month,” Yodersaid, adding that he loves theGorilla hammer.

The quarry provides limestonefor projects in southwest and west-ern Indiana. It currently employs11 operators and 15 truck drivers.Along with Yoder and Graber,Wendall Knepp joined the opera-tion as an operator and investor.Additionally, Yoder appreciates

the attention he’s received fromboth Boyd and Sons Machineryand Gorilla Hammers. He wasimpressed with the knowledge ofGorilla Hammers’ service techni-cian Jason, who came out and setpressures and provided outstand-ing training on the hammer, Yodersaid. Yoder added that the hammeris extremely dependable and theywouldn’t want to try running theoperation without it.

About Boyd and Company

In 1978, the Boyd Familyfounded Boyd and Company, aconstruction company providing

services ranging from excavationand utilities, underground and bor-ing, oil and gas and mining, to soilstabilization and disaster recovery.From a small farming operation

in southwestern Indiana, the Boydfamily has grown their businessover the years to include trucking,construction, and constructionequipment sales to their range ofoperations. Steve Boyd hadworked in farming all his life, firstwith his father, and then in the1970s, starting a family and subse-quently a farming operation of hisown. Boyd’s sons, Greg and Mikeare also involved with the con-struction business.With a major investment in

equipment needed to deliver grainto various markets, Boyd investi-

gated additional transport opportu-nities to avoid having trucks sit idleduring the off-season. The truckingoperation started more than 30years ago has developed into afleet of vehicles hauling steel, alu-minum, lumber and other com-modities within all of the 48 con-tiguous states. As an extension of its construc-

tion company, the family devel-oped Boyd and Sons Machinery,LLC. The equipment company,based in Washington, Ind., marketsundercarriage components, rubbertracks and tires, trailers and usedequipment.

Ziegler CAT: 100 Years of Building Minnesota and IowaZiegler takes great pride in the role it has played

in helping build and grow the Upper Midwest dur-ing the past century. From the time that William H.Ziegler opened a small office in Minneapolis in1914 up to today, with 1,700 employees and 21locations throughout Minnesota and Iowa, Zieglerhas stood for integrity, quality, and outstanding cus-tomer service. The company’s product is, andalways will be service. During much of its early history, Ziegler provid-

ed Minnesota contractors with a broad line of indus-trial equipment. In 1920, the company became thedistributor of the C. L. Best Tractor Co. and spear-headed the use of tracked equipment in the region.It sold its first Best 60 to the Minneapolis ParkBoard that same year. One of its first jobs was grad-ing and landscaping around Lake Nokomis. Soon after, Best tractors from Ziegler pioneered

Minnesota’s earliest snow removal efforts. Tractorsused for farming and snow plowing were new to thecountry — horses were the mainstay and peoplehesitated to even consider a machine. One of thebiggest concerns for prospects was the lack of atrade-in allowance for their horses and mules, soZiegler devised a plan with a Minneapolis horsetrader that paid cash for horses.In 1925, the C. L. Best Tractor Co. absorbed Holt

Manufacturing Company to form the CaterpillarTractor Co. Following the merger, Ziegler boughtthe Highway Supply Co., which handled the Holtline in the Minnesota area. The purchase, along with the acquisition of

Lange Tractor and Equipment Co. in 1937, gaveZiegler exclusive distribution of the Caterpillar linein Minnesota. Cat equipment from Ziegler was usedto build the huge Ft. Peck Dam on the MissouriRiver in Montana during the Great Depression. Italso helped send a flood of Mesabi Range iron oredown the Great Lakes to the steel mills and defenseplants that helped win the Second World War.

William H. Ziegler Co. Inc. supported thewar effort by sponsoring and paying forbond drive billboards located in 14 citiesacross Minnesota. Photo taken May 1942.

Ziegler became a local leader inGPS-based survey, earthmoving andfinish grading control systems in theearly 2000s when it became aTrimble dealer.

A Caterpillar diesel D4 tractor with a cable controlled Traxcavator loader widens streets in Richfield, Minn.,in 1946. A city-owned Mack dump truck is used to haul away the fill. The D4 tractor/Traxcavator also wasused for stripping gravel pits, loading gravel, moving snow and other miscellaneous jobs.

Area Caterpillar dealers displayed a variety of equip-ment for public inspection at the 1930 Minnesota StateFair. The display showcased Caterpillar combines, aCat Thirty snow special, graders and Cat Ten, Fifteen,Twenty and Sixty track-type tractors.

An REO truck hauling a Caterpillar Twenty tractor. TheTwenty was the first tractor designed after the forma-tion of the Caterpillar Tractor Co. in 1925 and wentinto production April 2nd, 1928. Photo taken August1928.

In this photo from the early 1960s, a Cat D9G track-type tractor and Cat 834 wheel tractor-bulldozer provideassistance loading the Cat 650 three-axle scraper.

A Caterpillar Sixty pulls a Russell Super Reliance pullgrader with scarifier in front of Williams Arena at theUniversity of Minnesota. In December of 1928, theCaterpillar Tractor Co. purchased the Russell GraderMfg. Co. This purchase gave dealers like William H.Ziegler Co. Inc. the advantage of transacting businesswith one company instead of two.

Operators and servicemen received training in thecare and operation of Caterpillar tractors at locallyheld “Caterpillar schools.” The William H. Ziegler Co.Inc. was an early promoter of these schools. Thisphoto was taken in 1926 in front of the Ziegler facilityat 619 Washington Ave., Minneapolis, Minn.

The tractor pictured, named the X-1 and completed in July 1973, was the first prototype for the D10 tractor and was only used for testing.

During the 1950s and 1960s, Catequipment from Ziegler andGibbs/Cook (the Iowa-based Catdealer acquired by Ziegler in 1987)helped build the network of interstatehighways across Minnesota andIowa.

Today, Ziegler is one of the coun-try’s largest Cat dealers, representingthe full line of construction, paving,forestry, and mining equipment, aswell as Cat trucks, generators, andindustrial engines in Minnesota andwest, central, and northeast Iowa.

Equipment from Ziegler helpedcreate the modern industrial andagricultural infrastructure of theUpper Midwest during the past quar-ter century and will continue to be amajor component of the region’sgrowth in the remainder of the 21stcentury, according to the company.

Over time, the corporate philoso-phy has always remained the same— if the customer is successful, thenZiegler will be successful. Sell thebest equipment and provide the bestservice.

CEG Goes Behind-the-Scenes at ALLU’s HQ in FinlandConstruction Equipment Guide

(CEG) was recently allowedbehind-the-scenes access toALLU’s headquarters in Finland.The five-day visit included a

factory tour, demonstrations of thecompany’s equipment, includingits line of crushing and screeningequipment working on local jobsites and video and PowerPointpresentations on ALLU’s soil sta-bilization system, a tour ofHelsinki as well as a host of otheractivities.“We saw this visit as a opportu-

nity to share information about ourcountry and our company,” saidSari Pekkala, marketing manager,ALLU Finland Ltd. “Pioneeringwork is always challenging andwhen we had the opportunity to tellmore about the work we do and atthe same time show our beautifulcountry, we decided it was worthlooking into.” ALLU may seem like a relative-

ly new company to most people(the manufacturer changed itsname officially to ALLU in 2007),but the company was founded byMarkku Jonninen in 1985 and wascalled Ideachip Ltd. before that.The name “ALLU” is derived

from the waste-eating dinosaur“ALLOsaurus,” which fit wellbecause ALLU’s screening andcrushing buckets do the same thingas its namesake once did — helprecycle and process materials. For close to three decades,

ALLU has experienced steadygrowth. What began in Finland hasgrown to offices around the world,including Germany, Sweden,France, Great Britain, UnitedStates, Argentina and China, withdistribution in more than 30 coun-

tries. “ALLU has always listened to

the real needs of the clients anddeveloped, not only products, butalso working methods,” saidKauko Pylväs, managing director,ALLU Group. “For instance,screener-crusher working princi-ple, screening and crushing simul-taneously with one single unit wasdeveloped in the beginning of1990s by ALLU. In many coun-tries it’s called “alluizing.” Massstabilization concept as well is anew working method and ALLUwas the first one to develop equip-ment to perform the mass stabiliz-ing work. “Based on this, the markets for

ALLU products are new andALLU needs to do a lot of pio-neering work in order to informabout the great possibilities of theirtechnologies to the potential cus-tomers,” he added. “ALLU hasbeen prepared to do this and it hasensured fast and steady annualgrowth. Even though some compe-

tition has appeared to the market,thanks to the continuous invest-ments to the product and saleschannel development, ALLU hasbeen able stay as worldwide mar-ket leader of its branch.” For most of its existence, ALLU

Finland’s core business has beendesigning, manufacturing and sell-ing screener crushers and otherattachments for excavators andwheeled loaders. In the early2000s, ALLU started the stabiliza-tion business, which differed great-ly from the original core business.Stabilization business is based onselling new working method andmachinery to a specific project.ALLU developed the first mixer

for the mass stabilization processin the middle 1990s and finishedthe complete system in 2003.“Mass stabilization concept was

developed already some decadesago and mainly for stabilizing softclay-type layers approximately10to 15 feet deep,” said Pylväs. “Atthat time, the major problem for

performing the mixing of thebinder to the soil was lack of prop-er mixing tool. In the beginning of1990s, Finnish universities andresearch laboratories succeeded indeveloping a method for utilizingmass stabilization concept also toorganic soil materials like peat.Once the first test results came outand after discussing with localgeologists about their mixing prob-

lems, ALLU started to develop amixing head and later on a com-plete equipment concept, too.Today, ALLU has a wide range ofmachinery for different mass stabi-lization applications covering evena 3D positioning system.”In January 2014, ALLU separat-

ed its stabilization business into anew company. ALLU StaMix Ltd.

Construction Equipment Guide (CEG) was recently allowedbehind-the-scenes access to ALLU’s headquarters in Finland.

ALLU PF pressure feeder is a track driven unit,equipped with its own engine. By using compressedair, it feeds the binder into the ground right in the mid-dle of the mixing drums of the ALLU power mixer.

An ALLU worker installs blades on a Screener Crusherbucket at the company’s headquarters in Finland.

ALLU Screener Crusher bucket is a versatile accessoryfor wheel loaders, excavators or skid steers. WithALLU Screener Crusher, contractors can screen, crush,pulverize, aerate, blend, mix, separate, feed and loadmaterials all in one stage.

Teddy McKeon Jr. (L) and Kauko Pylväs, managing director,ALLU Group stand in front of ALLU’s headquarters followingthe factory tour.

Over Years, Plote Grows From Three to 600 Employeesprobably moving several million cubic yardsof dirt a year, producing a couple milliontons of aggregate a year, several million tonsof asphalt, and 200,000 cubic yards of con-crete.”

With the exception of the foray into NorthDakota oilfield country, all this PloteConstruction activity is in Illinois. Becominga regional company is not a company goal,said the president. “We don’t have a lot ofaspiration to travel. We want to stay local.”

The mix and range of services shifts withthe market. Demolition was among the firstservices Ray Plote offered customers, butsurvives in today’s company on a smallerscale, mostly because it has become a morespecialized work. Whereas municipal snowremoval from parking lots and streets —another early Plote Construction service —continues to keep Plote wheel loaders andbigger trucks busy in winter months whenheavy equipment generally is less able toearn its keep.

Company work is regularly cited asexceptional by state transportation, highwayassociation, and industry officials. The com-pany regularly collects year-end “contractorof the year” awards for superior work on air-ports, roads, bridges, and municipal streets,as well as recognition in such specific areasas effective signage and controlling of trafficthrough work areas.

“We have helped rebuild all the freewaysand interstates in the northern Chicagolandarea and received numerous awards,” DanPlote said. “We appreciate the recognition,but we are just out to do a good job and buildthe best road we can. The rewards are a col-lateral benefit.”

Management Expertise

A major addition to the company’sresume of services came 15 years ago at DanPlote’s urging. The future company presi-dent grew up in the business, sweepingfloors in the company shop at age 10 andoperating company equipment in his juniorhigh and high school years. After two yearsat Lakeland Community College, Danreturned to Plote Construction to work in thefield, where he saw the need for more thor-ough management.

Project management as a stand-alonefunction goes back more than a centurywhen it was utilized to oversee large, com-plicated public-sector projects. Not until the1990s did it begin to be applied to smallerscale construction situations, due to increas-ing utilization of software applications bycompanies.

Dan Plote proceeded to structure a “full-blown, self-sufficient” construction manage-ment group. “It was designed to manage our

own projects as well as those of other cus-tomers. It was a level of managementdemanded by customers. The modern scopeof the work, the magnitude of schedulingand quality control, requires us to fully con-trol management of a project.”

Project management services today are anincreasing part of Plote business. Dan Ploteclearly looks back on its creation as a turningpoint in his relationship with the family firm.“I initiated it (the construction managementgroup). That probably is when I reallyshowed up personally.” He became thefirm’s president in 2005.

Project engineers and supervisors overseethe many pieces of a job contracted by PloteConstruction. By and large, these jobs aretransportation-related, such as highway, air-port, and railroad infrastructure. But Ploteproject managers also contract with other

contractors to keep tabs on suchprojects as scratching out large-scale subdivisions from Illinoisfarm land or turning dozens ofacres into a shopping center.

The work of managing turnedinto a coping exercise with theonset of the recession that struckthe construction industry particu-larly hard. Plote had sufficientwork in the pipeline to ward off theearly effects of the housing col-lapse and economic downturn. Butby 2010, those carryover contractswere completed and PloteConstruction executives and man-agers faced a crisis.

“The market tanked, whichreduced funding for both publicand private work,” Dan Plote said.

“We definitely had to make some adjust-ments, to right-size the company for theamount of available work. Our businessmodel didn’t change, but our workforceshrank 25 percent.”

The 2009 collapse wasn’t the only eco-nomic challenge the company has facedover the last half century, but unlike earlierrecessions, the impact of the recent one haslingered. “There were one or two just-as-badeconomic downturns in my father’s experi-ence but the company never before experi-enced this longevity in a downturn. Maybe aone-year or 18-month downturn, but thenthere would be a recovery. Today we mighthave stability, but we have not recovered.”

The company workforce has grown towhere it is down perhaps 10 percent from itshighpoint, but Plote can’t predict whenrecovery will be complete. He citesWashington gridlock about how to establisha new revenue stream to support restoringwhat he calls “an overloaded, stressed, andworn out infrastructure system.”

ALLU Finland Ltd. continuesmanufacturing ALLU screenercrusher products. With this separa-tion ALLU wanted to profile thesales and manufacturing of the sta-bilization products clearly as itsown business. Both companies areowned by ALLU concern parentcompany ALLU Group Ltd.Mass stabilization is a fast and

cost-effective method for harden-ing soft ground by adding binderinto the soil, according to ALLU.Different types of clay, peat, slurryand other soft ground materials canbe transformed into a solid layer byusing the mass stabilizationmethod, which also can be used forprocessing and encapsulating con-taminated materials. The ALLUStabilization System consists ofthree devices: pressure feeder,power mixing unit and control sys-tem. This system has been in use

close to home for ALLU. Asfreight weight on rails has beenincreasing in Finland, the stabiliza-tion system has proven to be a veryvaluable method to stabilize theland next to elevated train tracks,which extends rail life and helpskeep the rail lines safe for manyyears to come.Mass stabilization also has been

a huge success around the world.This process is used on a variety ofprojects including hardening wet-lands for sports fields and residen-tial buildings, stabilizing areasaround houses to build additions,hardening areas around harbors toexpand buildable space, as well asto clean and contain contaminatedareas of water and marsh land.Soil stabilization essentially

works like a blender, similar tomixing dough. The ALLU PowerMixer is moved up and down inwet areas as the control systeminjects materials to harden the land.The Control System is able tosense how dense the land is andinforms the operator proper densityhas been reached and to then moveon to the next block of land. ThePower Mixer is fed by the PressureFeeder, which has more thenenough capacity to keep the jobmoving forward.

“Mass stabilization is still a fair-ly new working method for soilprocessing,” said Pylväs. “Mostprobably less than 10 percent ofsoil processing professionals in theworld know about it. On the otherhand, new applications appear con-tinuously for the method and possi-bilities are widening. Winning landfrom the sea by hardening dredgedsediments, strengthening soft soilsfor building roads, sport fields oreven buildings, supporting existing

rail road or dike embankments, orencapsulating contaminated soilsare just a few examples of them.ALLU foresees huge growthpotential for sales of its machineryon the soil stabilization market.”For more information, visit

ZIONSVILLE, Ind. (AP) Leaders of two northernIndianapolis suburbs have asked state officials to look atchanges for an Interstate 65 interchange where they say con-gestion is causing safety concerns. Commuter traffic from Indianapolis often backs up at the

I-65 exit for Indiana 334 into the growing suburbs ofZionsville and Whitestown. “I’ve had trucks just barely miss me,’’ said Larry Gibson,

a Zionsville resident. “You’ve got trucks running 65 miles anhour right next to you. It’s kind of scary.’’ Officials from the two towns sent a formal request to the

Indiana Department of Transportation last month seeking areview of the interchange. The highway agency’s five-yearconstruction plan doesn’t include any work at the site, TheIndianapolis Star reported.

“Our understanding right now is that it isn’t very high onthe priorities list,’’ Zionsville Town Council President JeffPapa said. “So we think it’s a dangerous situation they mightnot be aware of fully.’’ Drivers have been involved in 35 crashes, including nine

with injuries, at the intersection since 2011, according to theIndiana Criminal Justice Institute. Whitestown Town Manager Dax Norton said the opening

of another large retail outlet in the area just northwest ofIndianapolis could overwhelm traffic on the interchange andnearby roads. Highway department spokeswoman Debbie Calder said it

has completed several projects to ease congestion in the area,including an additional travel lane that was finished last year. “We are more than willing to meet with both Whitestown

and Zionsville officials to hear their ideas and suggestions onthe infrastructure improvements at that interchange,’’ shesaid. Whitestown police Chief Dennis Anderson said a pro-

posed exit to Zionsville off I-865 that was rejected by theZionsville Town Council in 2012 could have helped easecongestion. Residents in the area lobbied against that proposal and

support among council members disintegrated, Papa said.(This story also can be found on Construction Equipment

Bomag Introduces New Generation of Vibratory TampersBomag’s new line of vibratory

tampers includes a wider range ofmodels that allows users to select amachine that best suits the require-ments of a given job. The tamperscombine low operating weightswith superior compaction perform-ance to optimize both productivityand ease of operation in applica-tions such as trench construction,utility and cable backfill com-paction, and small repair jobs.Boasting the highest power in

their respective weight classes, theBT60 weighs 128 lbs. (58 kg) anddelivers up to 3,372 lbs. of impactforce, while the BT65 weighs 150lbs. (68 kg) and produces 3,822lbs. of impact force. The BVT65weighs 143 lbs. (64.8 kg) anddelivers 3,597 lbs. of impact force. The BT60 is ideal for time-

intensive use in confined spaces,the BT65 for jobs with the highestcompaction demands, and theBVT65 for occasional use in typi-cal applications. Each model ispowered by an efficient 4-cycleHonda engine with recoil starter

and offers a maximum travel speedof 66 ft. (20 m) per minute.Built for demanding customer

needs and long service life, thetampers include a cover and guardsfor all-around engine protection,

dual air and fuel filter systems (sin-gle air filter for the BVT65), andan hour meter and tachometer withintegrated service indicator(optional on BVT65). The unitsalso feature a low oil alert system,

easy access fuel and engine shut-down switch, and splash oil lubri-cation. A high-strength polyethyl-ene tamping shoe with steel wearplate and a corrosion-free plasticfuel tank further contribute to

enhanced durability, according tothe manufacturer.For operator safety and comfort,

each tamper is equipped with avibration-isolated steering handlethat minimizes the vibration levelstransferred to the operator, therebyincreasing the number of hours anoperator can safely use themachine. For added ergonomics,the handle is also height adjustable.The BT60 offers a standard

operating width of 9 in. (23 cm),while the BT65 and BVT65 eachhave a width of 11 in. (28 cm).Four interchangeable shoe sizes (6,9, 11 and 13 in. [15.2, 22.8, 28 and33 cm]) are available as optionalequipment. Additionally, optional15-in. (38 cm) tall tamper shoeextensions with 4- and 6-in. (10and 15 cm) working widths areavailable.For more information, call

ICON Slide Rail Systems Offer Versatility for ContractorsICON slide rail systems give

contractors versatility and optionsto help them shore everything fromsimple pits to elaborate excava-tions with utility problems, over-head clearance projects or difficultsoil conditions.ICON is known as the original

pioneer of this type of shoring sys-tem in the United States. The com-pany’s slide rail shoring systemsare made of high-yield, Grade 50steel and are comprised of linealpanels, rails or posts and bracing.This allows contractors to installthree or four sided pits and twosided trenches in a variety of exca-vations and soil conditions.Contractors can choose slide railsin single-, double- or triple-raildesigns with either roller railframes (struts) or fixed-positionbraces.Slide rail systems are used for

the excavations of sewer lines,water mains, tunnel-access pits orshafts, tank installations, pump orlift stations, wet wells, manholes,junction boxes and many otheruses.

ICON’s slide rail system isinstalled at the same time as atrench or pit is excavated.Installation of the slide rail systemstarts by excavating the trench to 4ft. (1.2 m) deep. Next, workersinstall rails and plates to helpsquare up the system. They contin-ue to dig on the inside of the sys-tem to remove the excavated soilas needed. More panels and railsare then incrementally added usingthe “dig and push” method untilthe workers reach the required sub-grade.“The dig-and-push installation

method eliminates the need forvibratory hammers and can boostproduction by more than 50 per-cent,” said David Crandall, vicepresident of ICON. “And best ofall in these tough times, labor costswill go down by 30 or 40 percentcompared to conventional sheet-ing.“When it comes time to tight

sheet a pit or trench on a deepexcavation and you’re in a heavilycongested area, slide rail systemsmake the perfect solution.

Installation of the system is accom-plished without a vibratory ham-mer which causes significantly lessdamage to nearby utilities or build-ings. Using a slide rail systeminstead of wood or driven steel

sheeting also gives you more inter-nal working room from wall towall without the need for insidewaler beams.”Other installation benefits of

ICON slide rail system include but

are not limited to sheeting andshoring around existing or adja-cent utilities. Larger structures orpipes that require an unobstruct-ed pit or access bay for a trenchcan be easily accomplished byallowing the contractor toremove all cross bracing with atechnique called rebracing of thesystem. For large and extremelydeep jobs in excess of 30 ft. (9m) in C60 soils conditions, con-tractors can make use of thetriple slide rail systems.Environmental remediation proj-ects can be often solved withICON’s four-way rail system,which allows the contractor toinstall down the back side of therail and continue excavating andshoring in all directions withoutremoving the entire system to re-install, according to the manu-facturer.For more information about

ICON Equipment, ICON TunnelSystems and their products, call800/836-5011 or visitwww.iconjds.com or www.icontunnelsystems.com.

HammerHead Trenchless Equipment Celebrates 25 YearsChallenged to name a market-leading tool

that got its start as a prototype built in thefamily garage, most people might list thepersonal computer. Ask a utility installer orpipe rehabilitation contractor the same ques-tion, and the answer might be in the back ofthe company truck. The HammerHeadMole, a pneumatic piercing tool that caninstall a new pipe with “smaller holes, fewertrenches,” was designed in 1989 by an earth-piercing tool owner and two design engi-neers with an entrepreneurial passion formaking tools easier to use, simpler to serviceand more reliably productive. Now a market-leading manufacturer of

underground pipe installation and rehabilita-tion solutions, HammerHead celebrated its25th anniversary May 9. HammerHead CEO Brian Metcalf said:

“Expansion and diversification have beenfeatures of HammerHead since its foundersJon Haas, Rob Crane and Steve Wentworthbuilt that first Mole in Haas’ garage. Becauseof that, HammerHead has experienced dou-ble-digit growth year after year, introducingentire new lines of trenchless-related tech-nologies that give customers a completearray of solutions.”Metcalf said that 25 years later, with Ditch

Witch as its official North American distrib-utor, HammerHead now offers a full suite ofsolutions. “Customers can come to us with any proj-

ect and we’ll help them either burst it, line itor shoot a new run with our mole. Or we canline them up with a local Ditch Witch dealerfor vacuum excavation, directional drillingor open trenching.”

Piercing ToolsHammerHead’s 24 models of easy-to-

service pneumatic-powered piercing toolsrange from 2 to 8 in. (5 to 20 cm). Theyinclude the Catamount reciprocating headand the first front locatable piercing tool, theMoletrac. Piercing tools allow contractors toinstall underground gas, water, cable, irriga-tion, fiber or electrical lines underground,with minimal disturbance to tree root sys-tems, landscaping, buildings, streets andexisting utilities or pipes and minimizespost-installation restoration.

Pipe RammingPipe ramming is the most efficient alter-

native for placing steel casing 4 to 180 in.(10 to 457 cm) in diameter under roads, rail-roads, finished landscapes and structures. Itis the method of choice in cobble or free-flowing soil conditions. The HammerHeadrange of pipe ramming equipment includes a34-in. (86 cm) hammer, currently the largestpipe ramming hammer on the market.

Pipe BurstingHammerHead static, pneumatic and later-

al bursting systems are available to replacesewer, water and gas lines ranging from ½through 36 in. (1.3 to 91 cm) in diameter.Upsizing pipe capacity is done easily, usinglarger diameter replacement pipe than thepipe in place. The HammerHead productline includes the Hydroburst Static pipebursting systems and PortaBurst lateralreplacement system.

Horizontal Directional DrillingHammerHead has developed several

solutions for the horizontal driller. TheTriHawk drill heads are boltless headdesigns and feature a spline bit retention sys-tem with transmitter housing roll-pin lid,

with no bolts to come loose while boring.Multiple interchangeable bits provide solu-tions for almost all jobs from dirt to medium-hard rock and hard compacted cobble. HammerHead offers a wide range of

quick connect systems including theHawkeye and Splinelok. The Splinelok tool-ing connector was designed for maximumstrength yet simple installation and removalof HDD accessories such as drill heads andbackreamers.Pneumatic hammers like the

HammerHead 5 ¼-in. (13 cm) Roughneck400 and 6 ¼-in. (15.8 cm) Roughneck 500are now steerable, increasing any horizontaldirectional drill’s production capacity withpenetration rates of up to 150-ft. (46 m) perhour in medium to hard rock conditions.

Cured-in-Place-Pipe SystemsThe most recent introductions to

HammerHead’s trenchless solutions havebeen the HammerHead HydraLiner cured-in-place-pipe (CIPP) lateral pipe-lining sys-tems. Special resins and liner materials cre-ate a brand new pipe inside of and integralwith the existing pipe. CIPP technique cancomplete several runs in a single day. Incomparison, open trench technique oftenrequires several days for a single run. HydraLiner CIPP systems repair cracked

or broken pipes, eliminate root intrusion,bridge missing pipe sections, stop infiltrationand exfiltration, and even rehabilitate lineswith 22-, 45-, and sweeping 90- degreeangles. It can be used with virtually any pipematerial, including clay, cast, PVC, ABS andconcrete.

A Team That Bleeds Red andBlack

Metcalf said the tooling was not what hewas most proud of. It’s the HammerHeadteam. “When we transitioned successfully from

private equity ownership to being part of aprivately held, longstanding industry leadingcompany like Charles Machine Works, ouremployees embraced the change and havethrived in that environment. Our employeescreate a culture of customer satisfaction, adedication that fueled the company’sgrowth, doubling it in a short period oftime.” Employee passion, Metcalf said, has

always been a HammerHead hallmark, mak-ing it a unique company in the industry. “A passionate team who not only truly

believe in our customer, but in each otherand in HammerHead as an organization —our employees build upon the legacy of ourcompany’s founders. The past 25 years ofleadership, especially from our long-termemployees, bleeds red and black.” Tiffany Sewell-Howard, CEO of The

Charles Machine Works Inc., said, “TheHammerHead brand has grown significantlyover the past 25 years and we are very proudto have them as part of the CMW family ofcompanies. They are an instrumental part ofachieving our vision of The UndergroundAuthority for the next 25 years."Metcalf said the next 25 years is looking

bright for HammerHead. “We’ll see significant growth from our

core market segments, combined with newinnovative solutions to meet customer needsat their job sites worldwide.”For more information, call 800/331-6653

Birkey’s Earns Case ConstructionDiamond Dealer Status for Second Year

Birkey’s Construction Equipment,with dealerships in Bloomington,Galesburg, Mattoon, and Urbana, Ill.,has been awarded Diamond Dealer sta-tus by Case Construction Equipmentfor the second consecutive year. Thepartnership program encompassesparts, service, sales and training aspectsof the business, and requires dealers tomeet more than 45 specific criteria.

“Being a Diamond Dealer for Caseexhibits our commitment to live up tothe Case brand promise in all aspects ofour dealership. For us, this means hir-ing the right people, delivering a differ-entiated level of service in the market,and building enduring relationshipswith our customers,” said Jeff Hedge,Birkey’s vice president and regionalmanager.

Birkey’s achievement makes centralIllinois one of the best places to ownCase equipment in North America,according to the company. Across thecontinent, there are approximately 110Case Construction dealer complexes;only 11 dealers have made Diamondstatus. Of those eleven, only three havecontinued Diamond status from lastyear to this year. Birkey’s is one ofthem.

“To be one of three dealers who haveachieved this award two years in a rowis recognition of Birkey’s commitmentto doing things right,” said MichaelBergstrom, CNH territory sales manag-er.

The most extensive guidelines forreceiving the Diamond Dealer award

pertain to product support and trainingprotocols. To maintain the status,Birkey’s is required to provide employ-ees with the best training available inthe industry and to support all the spe-cialized tools that Case offers, includ-ing diagnostic and repair tools. Thecompany also must have well-equipped service vehicles at each loca-tion.

“The training and the tooling thatBirkey’s invests in to care for their cus-tomer base, as well as the [employees’]dedication, are really what drives thispartnership,” said George Preocanin,senior sales director of CaseConstruction.

Another primary component of theaward is market share. Case representa-tives attribute Birkey’s success in this

area to its ability to get deals done forcustomers.

An awards ceremony took place ateach of the company’s constructionlocations, where Case territory repre-sentatives spoke about their relation-ship with Birkey’s.

“Birkey’s employees are profession-als from the top down — from the guyswho have been there for four years, tothe guys who have been with the com-pany less than a year. It all cascadesdown from the top management, whobelieve in the commitment to and part-nership with Case Construction,” saidPreocanin.

RESPECTFULLY DISREGARDS CONVENTIONAL EXCAVATOR WISDOM.Plenty of people make compact excavators. But none can say they engineered the first mini-excavator, zero tail swing excavator, swing-boom excavator and rubber-tracked excavator. At Yanmar, we simply can’t stop innovating. That’s why our nine excavators – seven with true zero tail swing – are each purpose-built to overcome the most challenging conditions, work with unparalleled power and conserve fuel. So, if you just want to play around on your jobsite, go get any old excavator. BUT IF YOU’D RATHER RULE YOUR JOBSITE, GET A YANMAR.

Plote Regularly Cited as ‘Exceptional’

He is not hopeful the situation willbe resolved soon. “I would love tothink so but I don’t know if anythingwill be settled until after the midtermelections. We have little leadership tosupport our country, our economy, andour transportation system.”

Coping with a struggling economymeans Plote Construction executivesare “planning for rainy days,” manag-ing company debt and being consciousof economic forecasts. Plote adds thatnone of this is made any easier by thelack of political leadership in thenation’s capital.

“The uncertainty the country is inand continues to be in doesn’t support abusinessman’s idea of how to planahead,” he said. “There is just so muchuncertainty, not only in our industry butin all industries.”

The industry struggle to maintain askilled workforce is a challenge thatwas aggravated by the recession.“There is no doubt the industry losttradesmen and skilled workers duringthe downturn,” Plote said. PloteConstruction addresses the issue by try-ing to be a “solid company that pro-vides stability and comfort employees”and by operating an internship programfor college students and recent gradu-ates in a bid to “homegrow our ownmanagement.”

The company supports apprentice-ship programs for skilled workers. DanPlote said the trades union “is support-ive in trying to refurbish the trades, butunfortunately the next generation of

youth isn’t overly interested in ourindustry. We have challenges to getkids away from computer monitors andgo outside to be in the elements, getdirty, and work in an atmosphere thatsometimes is less than comfortable.”

Culture and Community

The company has reached the 50-year mark without sacrificing the twinprinciples of operating sustainably andresponsibly. This can be seen in theBeverly Materials division, which isheavily involved in recycling usedmaterials. This includes reducing oldasphalt and concrete pavement andsub-base aggregate into recycledaggregate. Recycled asphalt shinglesare a key part of Allied Asphalt’s pro-duction, which is located in FranklinPark south of O’Hare InternationalAirport and four other locations

“In doing this, we are being goodstewards and good cost managers,”Plote says. “We don’t have to dig a bighole in the ground for the old pave-ment. It is all a part of the sustainabili-ty that is becoming a more consciouspiece of how we do business.”

The company also is supportive ofcommunity organizations and the gen-eral community. An example of the lat-ter is a home that was built and givenaway to a disabled veteran of the Iraqiwar. The project came about after thecompany found itself with a residentiallot left over from development ofHillside Town Center. The familybrainstormed and decided to build the

house from donated materials, fixturesand appliances. The project came tofruition after 18 months of solicitingmaterials and construction. A multipleamputec war veteran was selected by aveterans organization and moved in.

Dan Plote attributes to parents Rayand Jan the company’s 50 successfulyears. They were partners in startingand developing the firm, he said, andPlote Construction continues to reflectthe principles they imparted.

“My parents have been very ethicaland very conscientious and very per-sistent in taking on all the challenges ofownership of a company. They havebeen persistent and passionate aboutbuilding things and taken personalpride in the building. They looked for-ward to challenges and had the drive toaccomplish things.”

He said his parents are, in turn, sup-portive of current leadership of thefamily company. They are sympatheticto the wrestle that he and other execu-tives have today with additional levelsof bureaucracy, regulations, and liabili-ty.

How the business climate willevolve over the next few decades is ofcontinuing interest to the family: Athird generation of the Plote family is inthe wings. One daughter of Dan Ploteis working in the office and a son is inhis third year of college studying con-struction management.

With the exception of the foray into North Dakota oil-field country, all this Plote Construction activity is inIllinois.

The company workforce has kept pace, growing froma handful in 1964 to more than 600 during a typicalconstruction season.

Project engineers and supervisors oversee the manypieces of a job contracted by Plote Construction. Byand large, these jobs are transportation-related, suchas highway, airport, and railroad infrastructure.

Company work is regularly cited as exceptional bystate transportation, highway association, and indus-try officials. The company regularly collects year-end“contractor of the year” awards for superior work onairports, roads, bridges, and municipal streets, as wellas recognition in such specific areas as effective sig-nage and controlling of traffic through work areas.

Atlas Copco has now completed its Dynapac range of sin-gle drum soil rollers with the introduction of its CA1300 andCA1500 models. With the same features as the larger mod-els in the CA soil roller range, the CA1300 and CA1500 fea-ture fuel-efficient interim Tier IV/Tier IV Final engines,improved serviceability, built-in safety functions andincreased operator comfort. Time- and money-saving fea-tures include optimized amplitude for superior compactionperformance and active bouncing control (ABC) that pre-vents damage to the machine and over-compaction, accord-ing to the manufacturer.

Lower Cost Per Compacted Cubic YardWith static linear loads ranging from 70 to 365 lbs. per

in., the CA rollers are ideal for compacting a rangeof materials, from sand and gravel to rock fill plussilt and clay. Amplitude of 0.071 to 0.079 in. (.18to .2 cm) for the Dynapac CA3500 and CA4000models allows rock fill to be compactedin 4 to 5-ft. (1.2 to 1.5 m) deep layers.The better depth effect results in highervolume capacity and fewer passes toreach compaction specifications, savingfuel and time and reducing cost per com-pacted cu. yd. Environmental impact also is lower. The “silent

weights” eccentric feature enhances compaction perform-ance even further and is standard on Dynapac CA4000through CA6500 models.

Lower Fuel Consumption and Life-Cycle CostsThe new CA rollers are available with fuel-efficient inter-

im Tier IV engines. (The CA1300 is offered with a 75 hpTier IV Final engine.) The ECO fuel-saving system mini-mizes fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by giving theroller only the amount of power that is necessary to operateat any given time. This, together with higher compactionparameters and other improvements, has resulted in a drasticreduction in fuel consumption compared to the previous gen-eration, according to the manufacturer. Rollers in the CA range can be equipped with a sustain-

ability package featuring the ECO rpm management system,biodegradable fill-for-life hydraulic fluid, a 50-hour servicekit, electrical engine block heater and working lights withLED lamps. The thick drum shell on Dynapac CA rollers extends run-

ning time before a drum change is required. A scraper bladewith a divided design keeps the drum free of material duringoperation and can be replaced quickly and at low cost shouldit become necessary. For PD applications a heavy dutyscraper is available as an option.

Bouncing GuardPrevents Component Damage

Active bouncing control (ABC), a feature unique toDynapac CA rollers, prevents damage and prolongs rollerlife by eliminating drum double jump, or over-compacting— an action that can destroy components in the machine. Anoptional speed limiter is available that prevents compactingat too high a speed, saving money in the long term. Thespeedometer is always standard to ensure the right com-paction speed. Electronic drive control together with auto-matic vibration control gives the operator full control.

A New Level of ServiceabilityA service interval alert in the instrumentation display indi-

cates when service is required and what action to take. Withthe world’s first cross-mounted engine, the CA soil rollersoffer excellent access for all service and maintenance needs.The engine hood is easy to open for quick maintenance, andthe hydraulic pumps are in line with the engine and fullyaccessible for service. The cross-mounted engine is easily accessible and gives

both optimal weight distribution and ease of transportation asit keeps down machine length. The noise level is very lowbecause the cooling air intake is placed at the top of the hoodwith the outlet down the sides, combined with the ejectorexhaust outlet. This has the advantage of keeping the inlet airas clean as possible, an important factor in the dusty envi-ronments in which these rollers operate.

Productive Compaction OperationsThe advanced control systems on the CA rollers increase

productivity by enabling the user to control the entire rollingprocess in three clear steps. Preparation — planning the task

with the Dynapac CompBase software; perform-ance — performing the work using the compactionmeter and analyzer on the roller; and protocol —analyzing the results using the Dynapac com-paction analyzer (DCA).

Dynapac’s CostCtrl software on the Weband an extended warranty for CA rollersenable customers to gain full control overlife-cycle costs and maximize machineavailability. The company’s internation-al service network offers full supportand assistance with all parts and serviceneeds.

Comfortable and Safe, With LowNoise and Good Visibility

The ergonomically designed, air conditionedcabs on the new generation offer a high level of operatorcomfort and good visibility over the work area and sur-roundings. A feature unique to Dynapac CA rollers equippedwith CAB is a spin-around seat, steering module and displaycluster, which allow movement of up to 180 degrees withoutstress to the neck or body and excellent all-round visibility.The view over the working area is always free of interfer-ence, wherever the operator is positioned. Noise levels in thenew cabs are reduced to a level that allows the operator toremain alert even for long working periods, according to themanufacturer.Safety functions include electronic drive control with a

“quick brake” function, which shortens braking distances ifthe lever is moved very fast, and a tilt indicator. Loss of trac-tion, even in the toughest conditions, is swiftly counteractedby an easy-to-use toggling gear shifting system or with anoptional anti-spin system.

A Wide Range of Models and OptionsThe new CA rollers are available in standard models

designed for an owner’s specifications and have an extensivechoice of optional extras, such as a bolt-on pad shell for PDapplications, a variety of scrapers, lights for night work andmore. For more information, call 800/732-6762 or visit

Improved Rumble Strip Cutter Provides High ProductivityWirtgen America’s new high-perform-

ance rumble strip cutter, the W 50 DCirumbler, is a standard W 50 DCi coldmilling machine with an optional rumblerattachment installed, providing high-pro-duction, high-profitability cutting of milledrumble strips in the standard, preferred 16-in. (40.6 cm) width at speeds of up to 180fpm (54.8 mpm). The W 50 DCi drivingunit is Tier IV Interim-compliant.Without the rumbler installed, the deep-

cutting W 50 DCi cuts 8 in. (20 cm) deepand a variety of widths up to 20 in. (50.8cm). Its 127 hp diesel engine, combinedwith a more robust 17,000-lb. (7,711 kg)design, 10-in. (25.4 cm) turning radius andstandard rear loading conveyor, makes thisa premier performer in the utility class,according to the manufacturer.Addition of the Wirtgen rumble strip

milling attachment makes the W 50 DCieven more valuable to an owner. Togetherthey result in a durable, reliable cold millfor general milling use, combined with amilling technology for cutting milled rum-ble strips in shoulders, or down centerlinesof two-way pavements.The W 50 DCi rumbler features a six-

sided rumble wheel with urethane pads,powered by a hydraulic rumble wheel

drive. The rumbler drum and wheel can bemounted on either the left- or right-handside of the W 50 DCi, with easy cutteraccess.The W 50 DCi rumbler cutter drive is an

extension of the W 50 DCi’s standard drumdrive system, using a mechanical belt drive,which has proven more efficient and reli-

able than hydraulic drive.A simple wheel/pad assembly rolls along

the pavement surface to actuate the rumblersub-frame in and out of the cut. Customdrum widths and pad sets are available.Special patterns can be achieved with spe-cial rumble wheel pads; intermittent pat-terns can be achieved with the available

skip line kit. For optimal cutting, W1-10/S-R Rhino bits can be used.A standard, long front pointer is designed

for stable, accurate correction when on thejob, essential for tracking intermittent refer-ences like the pavement “drip” line or acenterline. A short pointer also is installedas a standard. Both provide a dual refer-ence, which can give the operator a bettersense of the W 50 DCi’s rumbler’s position. The Federal Highway Administration’s

Technical Advisory (T 5040.35) endorsesshoulder rumble strips for driver safetyfrom run-off-road events, and maintainsthat milled-in strips are the best option.FHWA said milled rumble strips are superi-or because they have little or no effect onthe integrity of the pavement structure, andproduce greater noise and vibration thanrolled or formed rumble strips While rumble strips can be rolled-in for

freshly placed asphalt shoulders, researchby the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commissionfound strips milled into existing shouldersto be superior to rolled-in rumble strips.For more information, call 615/501-0600

GOMACO 9500 Features Exclusive G+ The 9500 trimmer is the latest

machine in GOMACO’s full line ofconcrete paving equipment to receiveits proprietary and exclusive G+ con-trol system and G+ Connect. G+ on the9500 also brought about other updateson the machine. The wiring in the 9500operator’s console has been redesignedand reorganized, rear steer control isnow offered for the first time, trimmerload control can now be monitored ona digital readout, and several other fea-tures have been added with G+ for theultimate operating experience. The9500 trimmer’s applications includetrimming, concrete and asphalt placing,and shoulder trimming.

G+ on the 9500 allows an updatedCAN-based operator’s remote controlwith a digital machine control display.The new remote features soft push padsfor selection buttons for conveyor con-trol and travel and steering. A joystickon the remote allows for new propor-tional control and movement of the9500’s discharge conveyor.Connections for the operator’s remotecontrol are located at the front and rearof the operator’s platform.

The 9500 now features two groundlevel remotes. The G+ MiniMoteassists in connecting the trimmerheador hopper, and loading the machine.The second new remote is for the9500’s hopper when the machine isbeing used as a concrete placer. Theoperator can use it to control the hitchwhen locking onto dump trucks, vibra-tion in the hopper, and raising and low-ering the machine to adjust the height

of the hopper. Both of the groundremotes can be operated from eitherside of the 9500.

The 9500 now has rear steer controlallowing it to easily and accuratelyback up on stringline. It also has a dig-ital readout for trimmerhead load con-trol. The readout shows pressure andflow during the trimming process andwill automatically slow the machinedown during a heavy trim. The 9500will operate on stringline, 3D stringlesscontrols and G+ features an entirelibrary of sensor capabilities for con-trolling slope, grade and steer with set-up configurations for any projectrequirement. This includes 3D string-less systems, laser controls, sonic sen-sors, rotary sensors, slope sensors, andall of their set-up requirements. Justconnect to G+ Connect and the G+controller automatically recognizes thecontrol system and allows two-waycommunication.

Within the console of the 9500you’ll see the results of GOMACO’snew wiring management initiative. Thegoal of the initiative is cleanliness, easyto follow labeling, reorganization andthe redistribution of wiring. The goalwas accomplished. The 9500’s G+console features a master controllerassembly and power distribution centerfor fast and precise control with cleanand orderly wiring and labeling foreasy troubleshooting. The design lay-out of the console has also been reor-ganized with the hydraulics separatedfrom the electronics. Two sliding andlocking covers protect the panels.

The two-track 9500 with front-mounted trimmer allows trimming tothe end of each pass or within inches ofobstacles. The powerful single-drive,hydrostatic motor offers ultimate pro-duction. The steady, easily controlledtravel speed guarantees accurate trim-ming and jobsite mobility. The 9500can make a 360 degree turn within itsown length for maximum maneuver-ability around a job site that has chal-lenging conditions. The 9500’s rearconveyor has a 36 in. (91 cm) wide beltand a 34.7 ft. (10.6 m) long reach dur-ing machine operation, and a conveyorbelt speed of 504 ft. per minute (153.6mpm) allows fast placing of concrete orremoval of trimmed material. The rearconveyor has a 160 degree swing withhydraulic height adjustment up to 12 ft.(3.7 m). The optional hydraulicallyfolding rear conveyor allows jobsitemobility, safe operation, and trans-portability.

The 9500 is user-friendly and opera-tor safe with an operator’s station that isefficient and allows visibility over theentire operation. All GOMACOmachines featuring the G+ control sys-tem have an operator’s horn and aback-up alarm. The operator’s remotecontrol has an emergency stop buttonon the side and there are several emer-gency stops located around the 9500.

Seven New Bridges Constructed on Jobwidening work on eastbound and west-bound I-435, and the construction ofcollector-distributor road networkalong I-435 between I-35 and U.S. 69.Interchange improvements were com-pleted at I-435 and Quivira Road, I-435& U.S. 69, U.S. 69 and CollegeBoulevard, and U.S.-69 and119th Street. This project isincluded in the larger Kansas T-Works and also was financedpartially through the AmericanRecovery and ReinvestmentAct of 2009 and from state andlocal sources. The city ofOverland Park contributed 8percent of the funding. Thestate of Kansas and Federalsources funded 18 percent and74 percent of the project,respectively. Clarkson Construction of

Kansas City, Mo., was the lowbidder on this project with alow bid of $101 million.Kansas Department ofTransportation (KDOT) issuedthe notice-to-proceed in July2011, with final constructionfinished in the spring of 2014.The project’s other two bidderswere Walsh Construction Co.of Chicago, Il. and MilesExcavating Inc. of Basehor,Kan.According to Northeast

Public Affairs KimberlyQualls, the project was com-pleted in three phases overthree years. The 2011 phaseconsisted of constructingdrainage structure under I-435,Nieman Road and U.S. 69;construct the eastbound I-435ramp to Quivira Road andreconstruct the connector roadsof Switzer and Nieman. Thesecond phase included thewidening of southbound U.S.69, rebuilding the collector-dis-tributor road system, widenboth eastbound and westboundlanes of I-435 and reconstruct theQuivira Road interchange.The reconstruction of the Quivira

Road interchange includes the demoli-tion of the three existing interchangebridges. On March 3, 2012, Clarksonimploded two of the three bridges.Traffic on I-435 was detoured while thetwo structures were dropped on a pro-tective cushion of dirt and sand.Clarkson crews with Hitachi andCaterpillar excavators, dozers and

crawler loaders reduced the concreteand hauled it to a site adjacent to theproject. Clarkson crews workedthroughout the night. All constructiondebris and the bed of dirt were clearedin time for traffic to reopen the nextmorning. This concrete waste, along with

other concrete debris removed through-out the project, is crushed to be used asstabilized sub base for the project’s newconcrete pavement. Clarkson alsolocated its concrete batch plant on site.The plant has a capacity of 300 cu. yd.(229 cu m) per hour and was servicedby 12 concrete trucks. Clarkson used itsGomaco slip-form pavers to install thenew pavement.The third bridge in the interchange

was imploded during the weekend of

Aug. 4, 2012. Traffic on Quivira Roadover I-435 remained open during theconstruction process except during thebridge implosions. Other brief closuresoccurred for the construction of a pairof concrete box culverts under I-435and the setting of bridge girders on theCollege Boulevard interchange.

KDOT decided closing I-435for a brief time for the installa-tion of the box culverts was bet-ter than subjecting drivers toextended lane constrictions.“Instead of carrying trafficthrough a high constricted con-struction zone for up to 45 dayswe were able to expedite theproject by working around theclock for two weekends. Thisgreatly reduced long-term traf-fic congestion resulting fromconstruction and more impor-tantly improved safety formotorists and workers,” saidBurt Morey, KDOT metrosouth engineer. The Quivira Road inter-

change also includes a uniquetunnel feature for the eastboundI-435 collector ramp to south-bound U.S. 69. As drivers enterthe southbound ramp they willtravel under the new QuiviraRoad bridges and then througha tunnel that travels under theeastbound access ramp fromQuivira Road. Drivers will con-tinue on a new distributor road-way that curves south and con-nects with U.S. 69. In 2011 KDOT focused on

the western end of the projectincluding rebuilding theQuivira Road interchange andrealigning two residentialroads. The rebuilding of theQuivira Road interchangeincluded the removal of theexisting bridges that crossed I-435. This was accomplished intwo stages so to avoid trafficdisruptions on Quivira Road.The third phase of construc-

tion included the completion of theU.S. 69 collector-distributor road andthe I-435 collector-distributor road sys-tem. It also included the reconstructionof the U.S. 69 and College Boulevardinterchange which included one newbridge. The entire project included theconstruction of seven new bridges.

Crane owners know that a third-party crane inspectionperformed by an experienced and certified inspector candecrease the crane’s maintenance cost and downtime alongwith detecting emerging problems with the equipment beforeit becomes an issue and affects job performance. CraneInspection & Certification Bureau (CICB) is one of the fewin the industry that require its mobile, overhead or towercrane inspectors to be certified by the NCCCO (NationalCommission for the Certification of Crane Operators). AnNCCCO certification is a nationally recognized means ofensuring crane inspectors are qualified to do the jobs they areassigned.All of CICB’s inspectors have passed the comprehensive

NCCCO crane inspector exams, earning them a profession-al credential that demonstrates their qualification to inspectcranes. “Our inspectors’ unique knowledge, technical expertise,

along with numerous years of experience, make our inspec-tions second to none,” said Jerry Longtin, general managerand a NCCCO Certified crane operator and inspector. “Not only are our inspectors nationally certified and

backed by third-party liability insurance, but they regularlyreceive education and updates regarding OSHA andANSI/ASME laws and regulations.” Since 1969, CICB has been providing third-party crane

inspections and safety training, and also was the very firstvendor to provide third-party training for crane inspectorsand operators in the United States.Operators and entire projects rely on cranes to perform

structurally, mechanically, and functionally. Customersunderstand the safety and cost benefits of their equipmentbeing inspected and certified by a professional. “To know our cranes are inspected without compromise,

to ensure we only operate load worthy equipment, is crucialto our employee safety, operational success and credibilitywithin the industry,” said Chuck Caskey, safety director ofStandard Concrete Products Inc.

About CICBThe goal of CICB’s inspections and training programs are

to reduce accidents and injuries, increase worker skills, pro-ductivity and morale, and achieve regulatory, best practiceand corporate compliance, and lower maintenance costs,increase reliability and life of the equipment. CICB, head-quartered in Orlando Fla., since 1969 with a second trainingfacility in Houston, Texas, offers scheduled training pro-grams at its facilities and at various locations across theUnited States or customized onsite training at your facility.CICB’s professionally trained instructors and subject mat-

ter experts are not only NCCCO Certified as mobile, over-head and articulating cranes operators, but also are CCO cer-tified riggers, signalpersons, and crane inspectors. All ofCICB’s trainers are NCCCO accredited practical examiners.CICB’s instructors have been awarded the prestigious TopTrainer Award in 2013, 2012, 2011 and 2009.For more information, call 800/327-1386 or visit

Gov. Dayton Creates ‘Toro Day’ in Honor of Firm’s 100th AnniversaryThe Toro Company celebrated its

100th anniversary on July 10, 2014, asmore than 2,000 employees, retirees,channel and business partners, andother valued guests gathered at thecompany’s headquarters inBloomington, Minn. Joining MichaelJ. Hoffman, Toro’s chairman and chiefexecutive officer, as he remarked onthe company’s rich history and theindividuals and innovations thathelped shape the company’s successwas Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton,who presented the official proclama-tion declaring “Toro Day” in the stateof Minnesota, and BloomingtonMayor Gene Winstead.“As we celebrate our first 100 years,

it was truly gratifying to be surroundedby many of those who played such asignificant role in the company’s suc-cess,” said Hoffman. “We are honoredto have such talented employeesaround the world and individuals whohave served the company throughoutour history, along with great channeland business partners, who work everyday to serve our customers and helpadvance our efforts in the industry.And, I especially want to thankMinnesota Governor Mark Daytonand Bloomington Mayor GeneWinstead for joining our centennialcelebration and honoring the people ofToro.”“Part of the mentality of Toro is

reaching out to its customers and to thecommunities, and developing high-

quality products while strengtheningyour market through innovation,” saidGov. Dayton. “I don’t think that thefounder could have imagined 100years ago that Toro would grow to be aFortune 1000 company, or that moreimportantly, you’d be a leading corpo-rate citizen in Minnesota. Your contri-butions to this state have been enor-mous.”Winstead added, “Toro is an impor-

tant partner in the Bloomington com-munity, and is a company that hasendured because of its commitment tocustomer service and innovation. Iurge all citizens to recognize and cele-brate the 100th anniversary of this val-ued business and community partnerwithin the city of Bloomington.”Among the many events taking

place, invited guests were able to seethe unveiling of a new history displayfeaturing an extensive collection ofvintage products from throughoutcompany’s first 100 years — includingthe first Toro-branded piece of equip-ment, the legendary To-Ro power cul-tivator introduced in 1919. Also ondisplay were many of the company’scurrent products for golf courses,sports fields, parks and municipalities,construction, professional contractors,homeowners and agricultural growers. Additionally, Toro’s Siteworks

Systems business invited new under-ground dealer partners to join in thecentennial celebration. While conve-niently gathered at world headquarters

in Bloomington, Minn., Toro took theopportunity to present Toronto-basedTrenchless Utility Equipment Inc. withthe 2014 “Excellence in ToroUnderground” recognition. This desig-nation recognizes one outstandingdealer partner that has performed at anespecially high level. Specifically,Trenchless Utility Equipment Inc. hasfound success by continued involve-ment in local industry associationmeetings, supporting Toro’s launch ofunderground equipment at varioustrade shows, and providing superiorresponse for customers’ service andparts needs.During its centennial year, the com-

pany’s many locations around theworld have focused on giving back incommunities where employees liveand work. This has included Toro’s“100 Acts of Caring” initiative, plant-ing 100 trees in each Toro communityworldwide, and a Centennial LegacyGrant Program supporting nonprofitsin their efforts to beautify and preserveoutdoor environments, and enhancegreen spaces.

Volvo G946C Scores Top Grades in Demanding Conditions

Whether operating in gravel orheavy clay, the Volvo G946Cmotorgrader — available with anoptional dozer blade or scarifier —performs with the accuracy andproductivity that customers expectfrom Volvo ConstructionEquipment. The 38,510 lb.(17,470 kg) machine’s heavy-duty circle, moldboard and draw-bar (with a blade pull at base of24,957 lb. (15,177 kg) provide astable and reliable platform, foreven and precise grading, whilethe ergonomic human-machineinterface (HMI) helps the operatorstay in control at all times, accord-ing to the manufacturer.Volvo’s twin pinion driver pro-

vides the moldboard with up to52,000 ft.-lbs. (1,191 Nm) of cir-cle turn torque, while it is support-ed by 700 sq. in. (4,516 sq cm) ofDuramide bearing surface. Theexterior teeth in the grader’s circleturn system provide a large rota-tion circle, offering enhanced pro-ductivity and eliminating materialbuild-up and tooth damage, forlow maintenance requirementsand a long service life. The newdesign also features a slide bear-ing, which holds the blade steadyat full extension, for maximumprecision in fine grading applica-tions. In the drawbar system, theoff-set ball stud bolts to the draw-

bar to ensure it stays parallel to theground when rotating. The systemis able to accommodate changes totire size or cutting edges, avoidingcutting or welding during servic-ing as well as providing optimaluptime.

Quick and AccurateResponse

The Volvo G946C’s load-sens-ing hydraulics balance flow to allgrading functions through custom-designed spools in the main valve.The system quickly and accuratelymaneuvers the blade to the correctposition, for smooth and fastresponse at all operational speeds,according to the manufacturer. To further enhance precision,

the grader’s all-wheel drive sys-tem includes a creep mode, whichonly engages the hydrostatically-powered front-wheels. This modeis especially useful in fine gradingapplications, as the rear tandemwheels roll freely behind themachine, without damaging thefreshly graded surface.

Control CabFrom the G946C’s spacious

ROPS/FOPS-certified cab, theoperator remains in command atall times, due to all-round visibili-ty and ergonomically positionedcontrols. The clean and comfort-

able environment, with effectivenoise insulation and climate con-trol, helps to eliminate operatorfatigue, for an accurate and pro-ductive work shift. The direction of the grader is

determined by a precision steeringwheel. However, operators mayprefer to use the optional joystick,which also provides proportionalresponse, thereby simplifyingmachine operation. Nevertheless,the steering wheel always takespriority over the joystick systemso that the operator can instantlycorrect steering, for increasedsafety and control. The joystickalso includes a stop-at-center artic-ulation feature, which uses sensorsto accurately return the motorgrad-er’s articulation to the center,whenever required. Besides enabling the operator to

steer, the joystick also providesergonomically friendly controlover all the hydraulic functions,the transmission system andattachment performance. Theoperator can customize the joy-stick system to their own user pro-file via a touch screen. A separatescreen displays diagnostic infor-mation from the Volvo Contronics,which continuously monitors andrecords machine operation andperformance in real time.Integrated with Volvo’s MATRIS

function logging system,Contronics facilitates ease of oper-ation, providing the operator withall the necessary information foroptimal performance.If required, the G946C motor-

grader also can be fitted with athird-party grade control system,using the technology ready option.Volvo engineers have worked withthe world’s leading suppliers ofgrade control systems to develop acommon interface and installationpackage. This ensures high pro-ductivity and precision in finegrading applications, regardless ofcustomer preference, according tothe manufacturer.

EfficiencyThe G946C features the latest

D8 Tier IV Final/Stage IV-compli-ant engine, with a base net powerof 225 hp (168 kW), combinedwith an industry-leading transmis-sion. The 11-speed transmissionprovides more gears, both in thework and travel ranges, allowingthe operator to select the mostfuel-efficient gear for the task inhand. The redesigned transmissionalso has an improved coolingcapacity and is automatically cali-brated for smooth, efficient gearshifting and increased productivi-ty. The operator can shift quicklybetween any forward and reverse

gear, without using the brakes orinching pedal, by pre-program-ming the unrestricted shuttle shiftto go from one gear to anotherwhen the gearstick is moved for-wards or backwards. The V-ECUprevents the engine from stallingby automatically shifting the trans-mission into neutral.

At Your ServiceTo maximize the uptime of

each machine, the G946C hasbeen designed with ease andspeed of maintenance in mind. Notools are required to access com-ponents covered by daily servicechecks — fluid levels can bechecked visually or electronicallyfrom the operator’s seat, whilecab air filters are serviced fromoutside at ground level. All othercomponents are accessed using asingle key — the same key that isused to start the engine. Somecomponents do not require anymaintenance. The fan that regu-lates the temperature of the vitalcomponents, for example, can bereversed to allow self-cleaning ofthe cooling units.For more information, visit

for employers to under-record injuries andillnesses, since each covered establishment’sinjury and illness data would become pub-licly available on OSHA’s Web site.Participants also expressed concern that theproposal would lead to an increase in thenumber of employers who adopt practicesthat discourage employees from reportingrecordable injuries and illnesses. OSHA isconcerned that the accuracy of the data col-lected under the new proposal could be com-promised if employers adopt these practices.“OSHA wants to make sure that employ-

ers, employees and the public have access tothe most accurate data about injuries and ill-nesses in their workplaces so that they cantake the most appropriate steps to protectworker safety and health,” said AssistantSecretary of Labor of Occupational Safetyand Health David Michaels.Therefore, OSHA is soliciting comments

on whether to amend the proposed rule to: 1)require that employers inform their employ-ees of their right to report injuries and ill-nesses; 2) more clearly communicate therequirement that any injury and illnessreporting requirements established by theemployer be reasonable and not unduly bur-densome; and 3) provide OSHA an addition-al remedy to prohibit employers from takingadverse action against employees for report-ing injuries and illnesses.Individuals interested in submitting com-

ments may do so electronically athttp://www.regulations.gov, the federal e-Rulemaking Portal. Comments also may besubmitted via mail or fax. See the FederalRegister notice for details.For more information, visit
