Designed to offer a variety of steels for energy, power and transporta-tion markets, the new, $1.3 billion Big River Steel mill in Osceola, Ark.,will be the world’s first flat-rolled flex mill when it opens in mid-2016.

Situated on approximately 1,300 acres, the facility will be able to produce 1.6 million tons of steelper year.

“I can’t begin to describe it, as it truly is one of those things you need to experience in person,”said Mark Bula, Big River Steel CCO. “Pictures simply can’t convey the size and magnitude of

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) An influx of federalmoney to repair hundreds of roads and bridgesdamaged by last month’s historic flooding willdo little to improve South Carolina’s dilapidatedhighway system.

That’s because the federal government’semergency money can be used only to makeroads safely passable again, said stateDepartment of Transportation Secretary ChristyHall.

“If the roads were bad before, they’re badnow. This is not a betterment program,’’ Halltold the House budget-writing committee Nov.5. “If it’s safe and can be returned to service,that’s what we’re doing.’’

Repairs won’t make the road like new, sheadded: “It’s going to look like a patchwork.’’

One month after the catastrophic storm, 54roads and 29 bridges remained closed statewide,most of them in Richland, Lexington andClarendon counties. That’s down from an Oct. 5peak of 541 closures, according to the DOT.

City of Kannapolis Sees Smoother Roads With LeeBoyBy Eric OlsonCEG CORRESPONDENT

When you have been successful andhappy doing a construction job a certain wayfor a number of years, it is often difficult tosee how it can be done even better.

But construction equipment technologyfrom Leeboy always delivers on its promiseto help get things done faster and more effi-ciently, and that is exactly what LeeBoy’snew Rosco RA-400 pothole patcher is doingfor the streets and roadways of the city ofKannapolis.

The city’s public works departmentturned to Carolina CAT in Charlotte to helpfind the right vehicle for its needs. What thecity chose was a versatile truck that hastremendously improved its productivity andresponse time.

To illustrate that numerically, from thetime the new Rosco was put in service lastJanuary through July, Kannapolis realized astaggering 364.4 percent increase in potholeand other minor asphalt repairs as comparedto 2014.

That puts the city on a pace to see a 600percent increase for 2015 with fewer fail-

ures, less labor and lower materi-al costs per pothole.

According to Wilmer Melton,director of public works for thecity of Kannapolis, hisDepartment patched 1,244 pot-holes in 2014 using conventionalequipment and crews.

“With this new Rosco truck, wewere able to address 5,777 pot-holes and other minor asphaltrepairs so far in 2015,” he said.“That is just a tremendousincrease in efficiency and fromwhat we have seen, they havebeen great repairs.”

Besides the cost savings, thislevel of efficiency also leads tomuch happier residents, as well asfewer complaint calls and acci-dents, which often lead to law-suits.

Utilizing a New Method“We have been extremely

pleased with how the truck hasperformed and how the mix of

material, air and asphalt has been blown intothe holes and really stayed in place,” Meltonsaid.

He said the city wanted a machine that notonly gave it improved efficiency in its oper-ations, but one that utilized a simple-to-usetechnology in the repair of potholes andcracks in asphalt surfaces.

Kannapolis, like any city with mild win-ters, gets a large number of potholes eachyear, particularly during freeze-thaw events.

When studying the problem of gettingmore pothole repairs done in a quicker timeframe, Melton and his staff considered theiroptions: Do they get more peopleand equipment or do they look forsomething new?

The first alternative would def-initely mean spending moremoney in the long-term, but was atried-and-true method.

“So we began to look at tech-nologies that were new and differ-ent in the marketplace and thistruck gave us the ability to mini-mize the number of staff membersthat we would have to put outthere to actually do a properasphalt repair,” Melton said.

The old method of fixing a holeis very labor-intensive. It meanthaving to cut out the hole, prep itand put the filler material in place.With this machine, Melton saidthat crews are utilizing the exist-ing configuration of the hole andsimply force-blowing the materialin to make the repair.

Staff and equipment is mini-mized and they can then movemore quickly to the next problem

on the fix-it list.The new truck adeptly tackles the small

and mid-size potholes, 2.5 ft. (.7 m) or less,that make up the vast majority of asphaltproblems on Kannapolis’s streets.

Quicker FixesThe new Rosco also has reduced the

repair time of a single pothole.Bill Pillsbury, construction maintenance

technician of the city operator of the Rosco,said that a typical pothole can be fixed inabout a minute using the machine.

Guy M. Turner Invests in New Equipment By Brenda RuggieroCEG CORRESPONDENT

Guy M. Turner Inc. of Greensboro, N.C.,has been in business since 1924. WhenJimmy Clark purchased the company in1985, it consisted of four or five cranes, afew trucks and about five rigging crews.There are several factors that determine howa company grows and what it does. In thecase of Guy M. Turner it boils down to onething — hard work and delivering and doingwhat he says.

Over the last 30 years, the company hasgrown, the current numbers include about 55cranes, 15 rigging crews and seven heavyhaul locations. Every division has increasedand become diverse, allowing the companyto cover most of the United States.

Doug Gilliam serves as Guy M. TurnerInc.’s vice president. He came to the compa-ny as a crane operator in 1984 and moved tohis current position a few years later. He saidhe’s seen a lot of change in the company andthe industry.

“There is more and more emphasis oncrane safety and we have made purchases tohave the latest technology available,” hesaid. “Training our people and monitoringour jobs is also vital to providing qualityservice to our customers.”

He explained that as the company grew,they reinvested in new equipment.

We’re in the equipment business, andreinvesting in it was important to minimizedowntime, he explained. You need the up todate machines; that are well made andbacked by a dealer who we can trust. Weserve many industries, and I’d say one of themajor keys of success for the company isproviding quality service and thus havingrepeat customers.

“The thing that I haven’t seen change in— and that’s been the key to our success —is the way people are treated. That hasremained the same from the company wewere in 1984 to the company we are in 2015.

I think that’s a very major thing. We’ve beenfortunate that as the market has offeredopportunities, we’ve been able to take those.Through our investments, our employees,and our equipment, we’ve gone from a verysmall office to the facilities that we havenow. It has been 30 years of growth.”

Gilliam explained that on the transporta-tion side, the company has multiple 19-axlerigs that are capable of hauling 250,000 lbs.(113,398 kg) over the road — steerable trail-ers that can handle long heavy pieces.

“We have a very diverse group of trailerswith various capabilities,” he said.

In the crane division, Gilliam said thecompany has found there are brands that arebetter in certain categories, and purchaseshave been made based on that.

We’ve had a long history with PinnacleCranes, and with Link-Belt; we’ve had goodservice from the product in the type of craneswe purchased — being truck mounted

cranes and rough terrain cranes — we’vehad good success. Most recently, Link-Belthas introduced the 210-ton all terrain cranethat is roadable in North Carolina while leav-ing the boom in it. This was a major factor inmaking the decision to buy this crane. First,we had the confidence in the crane — wevisited the factory several times and lookedat the crane and the manufacturing process-es. Then, when they were able to get thecrane roadable in N.C., this was a big reasonfor making the purchase.

Previously, we’d been able to run only a175-ton (158 t) crane in North Carolina withthe boom still in it.” According to Gilliam,the company bought the first crane and hadit in service for about 8 months before theydecided to buy the second one.

“We were very comfortable with theLink-Belt product and the service fromPinnacle Cranes,” Gilliam said. We previ-ously purchased 40 and 50 ton Manitex

cranes from Pinnacle. We like those and theoperators like the style of unit because of thecommercial truck factor. The operators liketheir ride at highway speeds, and we’vefound that we’re having lower carrier-relatedissues on a commercial truck than on a car-rier-type crane. Those were all factors inmaking those purchases. The lifting capaci-ties of these Manitex cranes are very closeto, or in some cases exceed, what we’vefound in comparable 50- and 60-ton cranes.”

The company’s cranes primarily work inthe Carolinas and Virginia, with the homeoffice in Greensboro and other locations inWinston-Salem, Martinsville, Va., and theRaleigh-Durham area.

The largest hydraulic crane the companyhas is a Liebherr 500-ton machine. They alsohave lattice boom cranes, including a 300-ton Link-Belt. We’re about to receive ourlargest piece, a new Manitowoc MLC 300.

“Pinnacle has provided excellent service,”Gilliam said. “They do a great job.” Link-Belt makes parts availability good, and serv-ice manager Ken Gamble at Pinnacle is verycustomer-oriented, and has made them whatI’d say one of the best dealerships around indealing with cranes. They’re easy to workwith, easy to deal with, and it’s just been agood relationship with them.

In the crane division, Doug Gilliam, Guy M. Turner Inc.’s vice president, said the company has found there are brands thatare better in certain categories, and purchases have been made based on that.

Oct. 12 turned out to be a pictureperfect day for the staff ofHydrema as the company held

a groundbreaking ceremony at thefuture site of its new U.S. headquar-ters in Cumming, Ga. A great turnoutof local dignitaries and representa-tives of the architects and subcontrac-tors of this project turned out for theceremony and an opportunity to wel-come Hydrema to the location.Attendees got a feel for the projectand had the opportunity to talk to thebuilders and Hydrema staffers andenjoy a nice lunch with them.

The facility will be built on a parcelof land that is approximately 4 acresat 4515 Hemingway Trail inCumming, Ga. This is the first struc-ture to be built in a proposed 150-acrebusiness park. For maximizing expo-sure, the facility is being built to facethe major thoroughfare ofGA400/U.S.19 in Forsyth County,Ga. Only 10,000 yds. (9,144 m) ofmaterial need to be moved on sitewhile the bulk of the digging will bedone to create a temporary retentionpond.

This first structure will be 13,000-plus sq. ft. (1,207 sq m) facility, whichwill be phase one of a planned twostructure “campus.” Of the squarefootage, about 10,000 sq. ft. (929 sqm) will be designated as shop andwarehouse space with the remainderto be utilized as a two-story officespace area with mezzanine.

Rory Cunningham and the team ofCunningham & Associates based inDawsonville, Ga., serve as the gener-al contractor for the project. The offi-cial start of the structure was at theconclusion of the ground breakingceremony and Cunningham said thathe intends to have the structure readyto hand over the first of July forimmediate move in. Cunninghamwill have about a dozen subs workingon various phases of construction.

The project has been about a yearin the planning stage. At this point,neither Hydrema nor the contractorhave encountered any major hurdles

or unforeseen challenges with construc-tion of the new facility. Hydrema’s KrisBinder said, “we’ve been really quitehappy working with Rory[Cunningham] on this project. Withouthis expertise we wouldn’t be heretoday.”

Hydrema U.S. will continue to oper-

ate from its Alpharetta, Ga., locationuntil the time the new facility is readyfor move in.

As the event concluded, the Hydrema 922HM that hadbeen on display went straight to work moving materi-al on the construction site of the new facility.

Hydrema displays its wheeled excavator line upincluding an MX18 excavator.

The project’s general contractor, Cunningham &Associates, helps set up and coordinate the displays atthe event.

Survey findings released by The Associated GeneralContractors of America (AGC) in October illustrated theseverity of the construction industry’s workforce shortage,with 86 percent of all firms reporting trouble filling hourlyand/or salaried positions. Certified general contractor DoreenDiPolito, owner and president of D-Mar General Contractingand Development in Tampa Bay, Fla., advises that the cur-rent landscape is creating job opportunities and greater earn-ing potential for men and women in construction.

In regards to hourly craft workers, carpenters are in great-est demand, with 73 percent of firms reporting the need to fillthose positions. That number rises to 100 percent in D-Mar’shome state of Florida.

DiPolito said the current trend benefits skilled workers:the AGC survey found that 56 percent of construction firmsare increasing base pay rates, 16 percent are paying moreovertime, 23 percent are providing incentives/bonuses, and23 percent are improving employee benefits.

“Today’s market conditions give skilled laborers the upperhand, allowing them to command better pay and perks,” saidDiPolito. Considering that carpenters already earn an aver-age of $45,590 per year, she emphasizes that these increasesand incentives translate to excellent earning potential andexpanded opportunities for both carpenters and potentialclients.

The industry is growing and changing so rapidly that con-tractors are racing to hire new employees and clients. Thispositive upturn in the industry will greatly benefit companiesand homeowners who are looking for general contractors fortheir projects with a fuller staff and quicker timeline.

DiPolito’s company, D-MAR General Construction, ispreparing for this and expanding its projects and bringingdecades of experience to the industry. D-MAR has been verysuccessful in the past on different projects like the LSG SkyChefs kitchen build-out at the Tampa International Airport in2015, which they were personally selected for by LSG.DiPolito and D-MAR also were selected for a Hess re-model project in Largo, Fla., that was part of the re-brandproject for Speedway HESS gas stations under the newMarathon Speedway brand in 2014.

The company has had a lot of success on other commer-cial projects with Dunkin Brands, CITGO, Wal-Mart, CircleK, Tire Kingdom, buildings for the city of Clearwater, Fla.,and other local developers. D-MAR works on residentialprojects as well and has been creating custom homes for 35years with great success and praise from clients.

DiPolito foresees a good long-term career outlook in con-struction. She concurs with the AGC’s recommendations tostrengthen the workforce, including increasing funding forcareer and technical education, establishing constructionacademy charter schools and expanding partnershipsbetween apprenticeship programs and community colleges.Over time, she is confident these efforts will ensure successboth for the construction industry and its workers alike.

By Erik SchelzigASSOCIATED PRESS

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) Republican Gov. Bill Haslamis calling on state lawmakers to decide on Tennessee’s prior-ities on future road projects before resolving the politicallytricky issue of finding a way to pay for them.

The governor said in a phone interview with TheAssociated Press on Nov. 9 that he is calling for the stateHouse and Senate transportation committees to determinewhich projects the state needs to complete — and how soon.

“Once we know what the need and timeframe looks like,then we can talk about what would the price of that be,’’Haslam said. “And only then can you say, let’s talk aboutways to pay for that.’’

While most lawmakers are happy to lobby for road proj-ects in their districts, many are wary of broaching the subjectof the state’s first gas tax hike since 1989. Especially in anelection year.

Haslam acknowledged that increasing revenues for roadfunding is likely a multi-year effort, but said it will be a goalfor the term-limited governor to accomplish before he leavesoffice in 2019 because he doesn’t expect it to be an issue asuccessor will want to tackle in their first few years in office.

“It’s hard for me to foresee a new governor doing that intheir first year or two,’’ he said. “And I know that if we don’tdo anything in the next five years, we’ve got a major prob-lem.’’

Haslam earlier in the day unveiled a list of 765 projectsaround the state worth a total of $5.3 billion that have beenproposed by lawmakers and local officials in addition to the$6.1 billion backlog of projects already approved — but notfunded — by the Legislature.

Any proposal for new project not already in the pipelinewould have to wait until 2022 to be considered by theLegislature, he said. And under current funding conditions,none of those projects would be complete or under contractuntil 2040.

“It does give people a sense of, `You think this project isneeded, just know that we’re 25 years at best away from thathappening,’’’ he said.

Republican legislative leaders including House SpeakerBeth Harwell of Nashville, Senate Majority Leader MarkNorris of Collierville and House Majority Leader GeraldMcCormick of Chattanooga have voiced opposition tobringing up gas tax hike in the upcoming session, which fallsin an election year. But Senate Speaker Ron Ramsey ofBlountville voiced support for the governor’s efforts at aKingsport event.

“It’s not something that has to be done today or has to bedone tomorrow,’’ Ramsey said. “But soon — very soon —we’re going to hit the wall and have a very big problem.’’

“I’m here all behind the governor on this to figure out away to solve this problem,’’ he said.

Haslam said the state’s transportation needs aren’t limitedto roads. Traffic congestion in rapidly-growing Nashville andsurrounding counties points to the need to develop mass tran-sit options, he said.

“That has to be part of the conversation,’’ Haslam said.“There’s a cost to our quality of life when that many peopleare spending that long sitting in their cars.’’

Rosco RA-400 Reduces Repair Time“Usually I pull up to the hole,

turn on the corkscrew blower andblast out the dust,” he said. “Afterthat, I start spraying rock and tackoil together to fill the hole. Right atthe end I spray dry rock on topwhich keeps the asphalt from stick-ing to tires. When the rock and thetack is blown in, that force com-pacts it.”

Just to make sure, Pillsbury willdrive the truck right over therepaired area to check for problems.

Perhaps most importantly, usingthe Rosco truck is preventing cracksand potholes in the same spot fromre-forming, Pillsbury said.

“With this truck, the process ingeneral has allowed us to not disturbthe area around the hole when doinga repair, which has always been aconcern,” said Melton. “Any timeyou can seal a surface off or preventany intrusion of water down into thesub-base area you are going to pro-long the life cycle of the asphalt inplace.”

Less Paper, More RapidResponse

Combining the RA-400 withwireless internet also is saving thecity on the dreaded piles of paper-work, while satisfying citizens witha more rapid response to repairs.

Melton challenged his staff towork as paper-free as possible. As aresult, his people implementedtablet technology to work in thetruck so that they are able to receivework orders in the field.

Using a 12-inch Android tablet,Pillsbury is able to access a workorder minutes after someone callsPublic Works about a potentiallydangerous hole.

Then, James Waldroup, the city’stransportation manager, can trackthe work and see electronicallywhat the Rosco has been able toaccomplish. At that point, the citi-zen can then be alerted that the holewas repaired.

Carolina CAT a Great Partner

Waldroup credits the excellent

help and service that Carolina CATcontinues to give the city regardingthe Rosco RA-400.

“They have been right on top ofany problems we have had,” hesaid. “When we schedule mainte-nance, they will send a technicianout to us, get it fixed and back on theroad in a day or so.”

He added that he and his staff didattend demonstrations of otherpatch trucks, but they were mostimpressed with the RA-400.

“We liked the telescoping boomon the front, the ease of operationfor one person inside the truck andthe design of the vortex hopper forthe rock,” he explained. “The way ittransmitted rock to the tube to sprayout was the design we preferred.The joystick control on the insidewas another key point in Rosco’sfavor. Most vehicles are similar indesign, but we thought that in thelong-term this would be a bettertruck for us.”

The Terex Bid-Well 4800 pavesa variety of standard duty flatworkapplications with equal ease andefficiency, improving machine uti-lization and increasing return oninvestment. At a fraction of thecost of slipform pavers and moreeconomical than laser screeds, the4800 automatic roller paver makesquick work of slab-on-gradepaving projects, including portdecks, urban development roads,sewage tank bottoms, warehousefloors and parking lots, accordingto the manufacturer.

The automatic roller paver’sadaptable frame design is the keyto quickly paving complex slabsthat flair or require variable orinverted crowns. To adjust from aperfectly flat slab, machine crownpoints can be manually set at anyhinge on the frame, enabling thecontractor to establish single ormultiple crowns in the slab from+6 percent to -1.9 percent. Theframe rides the rail on four heavy-duty, 6-in. (15.2 cm) diameter legsand eight bogie screed rollers,offering an 11.5-ft. (3.5 m) totalspan.

“Our wide wheelbase helps toreduce machine pivoting from anyslight deviations in the rail to helpboost surface flatness,” said DeanJohnson, service manager of Terex

Bid-Well.The Terex Bid-Well 4800’s 48-

in. (121.9 cm) deep truss frameoffers standard machine lengthsfrom 36- to 120-ft. (11.0 to 36.6 m)for paving variable widths from12- to 116-ft. (3.7 to 35.4 m).Standard 18-ft. (5.5 m) truss endsegments offer up to 15-ft. (4.8 m)leg travel to each side of the

machine for on-the-fly variablewidth paving, so contractors canvary paving width up to 30-ft. (9.1m) without rebuilding the trussframe.

“Contractors using the 4800have said they can pave twice asmuch concrete in half the time withhalf the labor force than pavingone, 12-ft. (3.7 m) wide slab at a

time with a vibratory screed,” saidTerex Bid-Well District ManagerLarry Eben.

Powered by its own standard23-hp (17-kW) Tier IV compliantgas engine, the 4800’s paving car-riage rides along the truss via aheavy-duty dual chain drive. Dualspud vibrators impart vibrationright up to the edge of the slab and

consolidate up to 30-in. (76.2 cm)of concrete. The carriage’s auto-matic pivot feature ensures thatexcess concrete is continuallypushed forward by the two, 8-in.(20 cm) diameter rotating strike-off augers.

The 4800’s Rota-Vibe reconsol-idates the top 2.75 in. (6.9 cm) ofconcrete, delivering a denser andmore uniformly consolidated sur-face. Dual 5-ft. (150 cm) long fin-ished rollers improve surfacesmoothness and feature independ-ent rotational direction control toadapt to concrete conditions andenhance finish. The machine’sheight-adjustable drag pan allowsoperators to adjust the pressureapplied to the concrete surface toprovide a better seal, according tothe manufacturer.

The 4800 paver features a stan-dard 5-in. (12.7 cm) paving car-riage lift, allowing it to quicklypass over block-outs and obstruc-tions. The machine also featuresvariable automatic adjustableframe advancements from 0- to 17-in. (0 to 43.2 cm).

To adjust from a perfectly flat slab, machine crown points can be manually set at any hinge on theframe, enabling the contractor to establish single or multiple crowns in the slab from +6 percent to-1.9 percent.

Terex Bid-Well 4800 Paver Excels at Standard-Duty Flatwork

Roadtec Presents Autotracking Package for MTVsThe autotracking package for the Roadtec Shuttle

Buggy material transfer vehicle automates the ShuttleBuggy, allowing it to operate at a continuous speed with apaver. This new option enables the paver to set the speedfor the Shuttle Buggy preventing any defects in the matassociated with stopping and starting the paver.

Currently, MTV operators have to continuously monitorand adjust their speed to keep their distance from the paverconstant; with the autotracking package, that constantworry is eliminated. The speed of the Shuttle Buggy is

automatically adjusted up or down to maintain a set dis-tance from the paver. This option seamlessly links thepaving train and improves operation by eliminating incon-sistencies with speed and distance.

Pendant controls give the paver operator the ability toenable or disable the autotracking and swing the ShuttleBuggy conveyor that feeds the paver. Two light towers onthe Shuttle Buggy indicate when the paver speed is goingto increase, decrease, or when it is maintaining the appro-priate distance between the machines.

Control switches for the autotracking package also arelocated on the Shuttle Buggy’s C1 conveyor and operatorconsole. These controls allow the Shuttle Buggy operatorto select between automation or manual modes. In eithermode, the light towers provide continuous aid to the oper-ator in judging the distance between the paver and ShuttleBuggy.

Keys to Choosing Sealcoat MachineryBy Maury BagwellSPECIAL TO CEG

Whether you’re starting a new busi-ness or looking to replace an oldermachine, the equipment you use canmake a big difference to your bottomline. Choosing the right sealcoatingequipment can increase your produc-tivity, reduce maintenance time andgive you a faster ROI.

So how do you know which seal-coating equipment is right for youroperation? Start by taking a good lookat your business and identifying yourneeds — considering the types andsizes of jobs you typically perform.This will help you sort through thewide range of machines that are on themarket today and choose which kindsare most applicable to your uniquebusiness.

Then, start researching. There arethree key factors to consider whenchoosing the best sealcoating equip-ment for your needs: the pump system,application method and tank size.These features vary from machine tomachine and influence capabilities,overall performance and maintenancerequirements. Develop an understand-ing of these three factors and, beforelong, you’ll be on your way to betterproductivity and profits.

Pump SystemsThe pump system is a good place to

start your research. It’s the main featureof a sealcoating machine and will influ-ence both its operation and capabilities.

Professional sealcoating equipmentuses one of three kinds of pump sys-tems: Bowie pumps, air-powereddiaphragm pumps or hydraulic-pow-ered piston pumps. Each pump func-tions differently and will directly affectyour machine’s productivity, pumpingcapacity and maintenance needs.

Bowie pumps feature a gear thatspins inside of a cylinder. The gear cre-ates suction that pulls liquid into theintake side of the pump, and then push-es it out the discharge side. Typically,these pumps can create enough pres-sure to move sealcoating mix with asmuch as five or six pounds of sand pergallon, which covers most mixes, butnot all. Although Bowie pumps havebeen around for a long time, they arenot commonly used in modern seal-coating operations.

Another more common option in theindustry is a rubber diaphragm pump,which pulls liquid in as the diaphragmcontracts and then pushes it out as itexpands. Each pump requires an aircompressor for power.

Diaphragm pumps handle manytypes of materials, including water andnon-abrasive oils. Most produceenough pressure to pump mixes with asmuch as two pounds of sand per gallon,which is ideal for smaller jobs. Forexample, residential driveways don’treceive constant traffic, so mixes with

two pounds of sand per gallon shouldbe strong enough to provide adequateprotection. However, if you’re in themarket for larger commercial jobs,you’ll need the more powerfulhydraulic pump.

A hydraulic-powered piston pumpuses pistons to continuously pull liquidin and push it out. Because hydraulicsproduce more power than an air com-pressor, piston pumps are needed topump thicker materials, such as asphaltemulsions and newer modified sealers.That piston power can take on mixeswith 10 or more pounds of sand pergallon — mixes that give contractorsthe ability to take on a wider range ofprojects. For instance, state and federalprojects, as well as larger commercialjobs, typically require these high-sandmixes since there’s more traffic in thoseareas than a residential driveway. Onlythicker mixes can accommodate themore frequent use.

Beyond pumping thicker materials,the higher pressure of hydraulic-pow-

Choosing the right sealcoating equipment can increase productivity,reduce maintenance time and give a faster return on investment.

There are three key factors to consider when choosingthe best sealcoating equipment for your needs: thepump system, application method and tank size.Spraying sealcoat offers different benefits than usinga squeegee system, although some manufacturersoffer machines that do both for longer lasting results.

The piston pump design uses leather seals thatrequire no daily upkeep, leading to consistently highproductivity. Seals typically pump at least 150,000 gal-lons of sealcoat before needing to be replaced, outlast-ing rubber seals in diaphragm pump designs.

Pumps Affect Machine’s Productivity ered piston pumps allows contractors to move materials 40percent faster compared to diaphragm pumps, meaning thatlarger jobs get done faster.

While the productivity and versatility of the pump are cer-tainly the key factors to consider, contractors would beremiss in not also considering the maintenance of the differ-ent styles of pumps. Piston pumps tend to offer the lowestoverall maintenance. The piston design uses leather seals thatrequire no daily upkeep. This translates to consistently highproductivity because you’ll only have to rinse out a pistonpump before long-term storage, such as for winterization.Plus, you should be able to pump at least 150,000 gallons ofsealcoat before the leather seals need to be replaced. Still, it’sa good idea to check the pump once a week to ensure theseals stay lubricated.

Like piston pumps, Bowie pumps don’t require dailymaintenance. However, abrasive high-sand mixes andasphalt emulsions can quickly wear down the rotary gear andcause a gap in the seal, which causes the pump to lose pres-sure. A contractor must disassemble the pump and replacethe gaskets and steel wear plates around the seal. These arerather expensive components, which can cost as much as$1,200 to repair or more than $2,000 to replace. Also, itshould be noted that the service interval is much shorter thanwith a piston pump, resulting in greater cost and downtime.

The lighter diaphragm pumps also require more frequentmaintenance. Since diaphragm pumps use rubber sealsrather than leather seals or steel plates, those components,while cheaper than a Bowie pump’s steel pieces, must beregularly replaced.

Application Method Once you’ve chosen the right pump for your operation,

consider your application method: squeegee, spray or both.Each has its advantages, depending on the job and type ofsurface.

Spraying sealcoat can be completed faster than applying itby squeegee, which makes it a more common method.Spraying works better on smooth surfaces because it leavesa more uniform finish.

Alternatively, the squeegee method continues to gain morepopularity since it applies more material for a seal that lastslonger. It is harder to spread sealer evenly and achieve asmooth finish, so the squeegee method tends to work betterfor rough or porous surfaces because it can pack the materialinto the crevices, creating a stronger bond with the pavement.

Of course, an experienced contractor can achieve greatresults on any type of surface using the squeegee or spraymethod. But, if you want options and even greater durabilityfor your customers, a sealcoating system with a dual applica-tor can give you the best of both worlds. These machinesapply sealcoat via squeegee or spray, giving contractors thefreedom to select the method that will yield the best result foreach particular job. Contractors also can use a dual applicatormachine to apply one coat with a squeegee to form a strongbond, and then spray on a second coat for a uniform finish.

Although this method is more expensive and takes moretime, the results last 40 percent longer than a job done witha squeegee alone or a double-spray application — saving thecontractor time and money while earning more referral andrepeat business due to a quality job. In addition, few con-tractors own a dual applicator; therefore, owning one pro-vides a competitive advantage for contractors when biddingon jobs.

Machine Sizes and WeightsJust as understanding pump systems and application

methods affects your bottom line, so does finding a machinewith a tank suited to fit your operation. If you work primari-ly on smaller jobs, such as residential driveways or smallparking lots, a tank that holds 750 gallons should be enoughto complete each project without refilling. However, if yourbread-and-butter jobs are larger, such as airport runways andmall parking lots, you may need a larger tank.

In conjunction with tank size, consider how you plan totransport the equipment. Being able to easily move it with-out placing too much strain on your vehicle or trailer is cru-cial to running an efficient sealcoating business.

Before you buy a machine, make sure your truck or trail-er has the axle capacity to support the system’s weight. Keepin mind you’ll have to calculate the weight of the equipmentplus the material that will be inside of it. Sealcoat generallyweighs around 10 pounds per gallon, sometimes moredepending on the amount of sand in the mix. That means a750-gallon tank that weighs about 4,000 pounds empty willhave another 7,500 pounds of pressure on the axle whenfilled.

If it’s a trailer-mounted unit, check your vehicle’s towingcapabilities. For a skid-mounted unit, you’ll need to deter-mine the vehicle’s gross vehicle weight rating, or GVWR.For example, a skid-mounted unit with a 750-gallon tankwill need a vehicle with at least a 15,000 gvwr. For a systemwith a 1,500-gallon tank, you’ll likely need 30,000 GVWR.

The Best Machine Is the Right Machine As with any business, profits are the measure of success.

You already know time is money. Choosing equipment thatbest fits your business and the types of jobs you perform willkeep your downtime low and your productivity high. Mostimportantly, it will keep you profitable in not just the short-term, but for years to come.

SP 15i Features Tier IV Interim Emissions TechnologyWirtgen’s SP 15i concrete slip-

form paver updates the existing SP15 with Tier IV interim emissionstechnology, but both are true multi-purpose machines that lay curb andgutter, barrier, sidewalk, V-ditch,special applications and slabs.Both of these versatile machinescan be configured on site for left-or right-side pouring.

Like the SP 15, the SP 15iaccepts AutoPilot technology fromWirtgen, a GPS-based system thatensures highest precision and opti-mum efficiency in slipformpaving, regardless of whetherstraight profiles, highly complexcurved paths or closed profile con-figurations need to be placed.

The SP 15i has a maximumpaving width of 6 ft. (1.8 m), max-imum barrier/parapet placementheight of 4 ft. 3 in. (1.3 m), and amaximum operating weight of28,500 lb. (12,927 kg). It has best-in-class trimming capacity, quickonsite changes for left or right sidepouring, job site mobility, andpours a tight, smooth radius withall-track steering and positioning.

The SP 15i also features an Ecomode, which matches engine rpmto machine power requirements,thus saving fuel and reducing emis-sions. It’s powered by a Deutz TCD

4.1 L4 engine generating 127 hp.The SP 15i slipform paver sets

new standards as a multipurposemachine for offset concretepaving. The compact machine has

a heavy-duty design for tough day-to-day operation, increasedmaneuverability and ease of opera-tion. It’s an ideal choice for pour-ing offset profiles and for sidewalk

up to 6 ft.The SP 15i owes its broad range

of capabilities to the highly flexiblearrangement of its mold and trackunits, as a great variety of setupoptions make the machine adapt-able to most jobsite conditions.

Different-profile molds can bemounted on the left or right side ofthe paver without the need fortime-consuming machine conver-sions. The two front track units canbe chosen in pivot design, whilethe rear track unit can be chosenwith mechanical or hydraulicadjustment to either side.

The flexibility of the SP 15i isenhanced by options such as trim-mer, concrete feeding via belt con-veyor or auger conveyor, and elec-tric or hydraulic vibrators. Thecompact, overall dimensions of theSP 15i allow for easy transport.

duced the lightweight XL 80 low-profile hydraulic detachablegooseneck (HDG) trailer. Thislowboy is rated at 80,000 lbs.(36,287 kg) overall and 80,000 lbs.in 10 ft. (3 m) concentrated thatcontractors use and move everyday.

The XL 80 low-profile HDGfeatures an 11-ft. (3.3 m) longhydraulic gooseneck with XL’slow-profile design, which is popu-lar for its front-loading advantage.A five-position ratchet-style vari-able ride height allows users toadjust the neck height to fit theirvarious loads.

This new two axle constructionlowboy is available in threeoptions: a 44 ft. 6-in. (13.6 m)overall length with 24 ft. (7.3 m) inthe well, a 46-ft. 6-in. (14.2 m)overall length with 26 ft. (7.9 m) inthe well, or a 48-ft. (14.6 m) over-all length with 27 ft. 6 in. (8.4 m) inthe well. The short gooseneckallows for the main deck to stay aslong as possible, an important fac-tor for many users who may need

to fit a long load or multiple smallpieces of equipment onto the maindeck.

The XL 80 low-profile HDG’smain deck is constructed with four14-in. (35.5 cm) tall, fully-cam-bered I-beams as well as 8-in. (20cm) and 4-in. (10 cm) stubbed jun-ior I-beams on 12-in. (30.5 cm)alternating centers. The robust main

deck features a 22-in. (56 cm)loaded deck height with 8 in. (20cm) of ground clearance. With stan-dard features including 31-in. (79cm) front flip ramps, 6 bent D-ringsper side, chain drops, 12-in. swing-out outriggers on 24-in. (61 cm)centers and raised apitong decking,this model is ready for work,according to the manufacturer.

The bucket well at the rear of themain deck is made from therecessed last three cross membersof the deck and includes a plate onthe bottom, ideal for the bucket ofan excavator to sit low in withoutdamaging the cylinder. The boomtrough in the rear bridge alsocomes with a plate on the bottomand provides a place for the arm to

ride safely. The rear bridge transi-tion of 32 degrees features tractionaids for loading, while the 9-ft. 6-in. (2.9 m) long rear deck has a 40-in. (101.6 cm) loaded deck heightand is prepped for a flip axle.Optional bolt-on wheel covers areavailable as load bearing — forparking on — or semi-load bearing— for driving on — and can beremoved when not in use forweight reduction.

“As construction equipmentgets heavier, it is easy to keepbuilding bigger trailers,” saidRodney Crim, vice president ofsales at XL Specialized Trailers.“But job sites are full of smallerequipment too, so we wanted todesign a trailer that was light-weight, sturdy and full of bonusfeatures for those everyday hauls.Our new XL 80 low-profile HDGtrailer achieves that.”

Felling’s Main Custom Solutions Offer Safety, CapacityFelling Trailers’ capability and willingness to take a project from concept to finished prod-

uct fills the need in the utilities sector with the FT-20 IT-I trailer. The development of the spe-cific options and configuration of this trailer evolved from a dealer/manufacturer relation-ship, where the dealer asked the Felling sales person to meet in person with them and theircustomer to come up with the desired specifications to meet theirneeds. The end user customer’s concernswere operator safety, capacity,tongue weight,equipmentplace-

m e n t ,rear over-hang, etc.

The resulting design wasthat of the FT-20 IT-I customtrailer. The unusual tongue configuration allowsturning clearance for rear steps or for a recessed mounted pintle onthe rear of a utility truck. The jack is located so the operator has easy access to operate andis bolted on so it can be easily replaced in the event of damage. The deck length wasincreased to avoid rear over hang.

Bolt on side steps and grab handles are provided for safe access in most any condition.The entire trailer can be hot dipped galvanized to drastically extend the life and appear-

ance.

ICUEE National Crane Competition: Bowyer Wins AgainALL Crane Rental of Florida’s Kenneth Bowyer has once

again taken the top prize at the national crane rodeo compe-tition, also known as the Crane Operator & Rigger SkillsChampionship. The event was held Sept. 29 during the 2015International Construction and Utility Equipment Expo(ICUEE) in Louisville, Ky.

The rodeo, hosted by Crane Institute Certification (CIC),Crane & Rigging Hotline magazine and Altec Inc., is a craneoperation challenge drawing on contestants’ skills in train-ing, certification and experience in safe crane operations.

Crane operators from around the country competed for the$10,000 championship prize after each won a previously heldregional event. Competition was heavy, and several entrantsshowed up the day before the championship contest for thefinal of the regional competitions, also held at ICUEE, hop-ing to win the last spot available to compete for the big prize.

There were more than 100 entrants in the various region-al events, eventually resulting in a field of 14 entrants to thenational competition. Bowyer was an automatic entrant forthis year’s event because of his victory last year, and heworked hard to defend that title, becoming the first consecu-tive champion in the event’s history.

“The course was more challenging this year,” saidBowyer, a 20-year crane operator. “It required us to imple-ment a lot more skill while working to have the best timewithout making a mistake that could disqualify you. I wasreally shooting to win a second time, as nobody has ever wonit consecutively before.”

Contestants competed on an Altec AC45-127S, a 45-ton(40.8 t) capacity truck-mounted crane with a 127-ft. (38.7

m), five-section telescopic boom. The competition included a rigging challenge, as well as

maneuvering the crane—with 100 ft. (30.48 m) of boom—through a tough obstacle course. The weather provided a fur-ther challenge with rainy and muddy conditions, so operatorshad to close the cab windows and rely on their depth per-ception more heavily.

“Four feet can look like six inches when you’re in theseat,” said Bowyer, “but we work in that environment, soskill in those conditions is part of the job.”

The obstacle course included maneuvering a barrelthrough a course, tipping a pipe end-to-end and dunking themachine’s headache ball into a barrel. The headache ball is a

heavy ball attached to a hook to keep the crane’s lifting cabletaut. Crane Institute Certification (CIC), a nationally accred-ited organization that provides rigger, signalperson and craneoperator certification, designed the competition’s standardsand scoring.

Feeling the support of the entire ALL Family of Companiesbehind him at the competition, Bowyer also brought his entirefamily — his wife and five children — from Florida toLouisville, so they could watch the competition. Bowyerpraised the company and singled out his supervisor, MitchMcDonald, ALL Crane of Florida’s general manager.

“If you wanted to mold the perfect boss, he would be themold. Mitch and the whole ALL family have been very sup-portive. At ALL, what we do is a lifestyle. We’re all profes-sionals, we look after one another, and we have pride in ourwork,” said Bowyer.

“I can’t say enough about how proud I am,” saidMcDonald. “Everybody is proud of him; the corporateoffice, all his co-workers — he’s just an outstandingemployee. Not only is he skilled at what he does, but he hasa great attitude, is a hard worker and really understands theimportance of safety, which is the most crucial thing of all.”

Bowyer is happy to serve as “the man to beat” for nextyear’s competition. Hoping for a third win next year, he takesa straightforward and easygoing approach. “Everyone hasthe same chance as I do,” he said. “Bring your skills andcome to the table.”

On hand was a JCB 300T compact trackloader, 3CX-14 backhoe, 525-60 telescopichandler, 85Z compact excavator, JS190excavator and a 427ZX wheel loader. All ofthese models were used during the originalconstruction of the Baker Factory tracks lastyear. They continue to be used during theday-to-day operations of the facility to main-tain and upkeep the tracks. Tracks are con-stantly rebuilt to simulate the next racecourse circuit the riders will compete at.

The Baker Factory tracks spread over the90 plus acre facility, a training center for thesport’s most elite riders, who are put througha personalized training regimen by ownerAldon Baker. The Baker Factory alsoincludes meeting spaces, indoor trainingareas and athlete accommodations.

“The Baker Factory provides a uniqueenvironment for customers to put ourmachines to the test,” said Shane Coates,JCB general manager sales — East.“Construction and maintenance of the tracksdirectly correlate to the rigorous workloadour customers face on a daily basis. We’reextremely grateful for our partnership withthe Baker Factory and look forward to moreevents such as this one.”

The training facility was named after itsowner Aldon Baker, a former professionalmountain bike racer turned motocross andsupercross trainer. Baker, a decorated athletehimself, is arguably the most successfultrainer in history having trained riders

including Ricky Carmichael, James Stewartand Ryan Villopoto. His athletes have gainedglobal attention for winning the previoustwo world and U.S. titles, as well as severalother championships. In 2015, Baker-trainedathletes Ryan Dungey and Marvin Musquinhave seen great success. Dungey is the reign-ing Monster Energy AMA Supercross 2015Series Champion and Musquin won the2015 Eastern Regional 250SX ClassChampionship and Dave Coombs Sr.East/West Shootout.

Several JCB dealerships, includingMacKinnon JCB and JCB of Miami, attend-ed the event along with customers fromacross the southeastern region. One suchcustomer, Nicolas Stankov, certifiedmotocross trainer with FIM, was particular-ly impressed with the 300T compact trackloader.

“Having the chance to get in a JCB com-pact track loader in an environment like thisis really important to me,” said Stankov. “Irun my own training facility in south Floridaand it’s easy to see why the Baker Factorychose to build with JCB. The visibility andside door entry are exclusive features whichdeliver added safety and comfort withoutsacrificing productivity. In this type of envi-ronment where there’s constant pedestriantraffic on site, the class-leading visibilityensures both the operator and our athletesremain safe, a top priority for us all.”

bridge systems and to do so in an extremely compressedtime frame. Data from the BEAST will allow the projectionof future performance and longevity of bridge materials andcomponents.

“The BEAST uniquely subjects full-scale bridge deck andsuperstructure systems of up to 50 ft. (15.24 m) long by 28ft. (8.53 m) wide to extreme traffic loading and rapid-cycleenvironmental changes in a controlled environment. Thisextreme loading ‘fast forwards’ aging by as much as 30times, making it possible to simulate 15 to 20 years of wear-and-tear in just a few months,” explained Andrés Roda,research engineer for the project.

Roda noted that the system’s 24-7 traffic loading deliversup to 60,000 lbs. (27,215 kg) total applied vertical forcethrough two closely spaced axles, replicating the stresses of17,500 trucks rolling over the deck in a day. Inside theBEAST, rapid-cycling temperatures can fluctuate from 0 to104 degrees F (minus 17 to 40 C) to reproduce a range ofweather conditions; combined with salt brine applications,these conditions simulate the environmental impact of 15years’ worth of seasonal changes in just a six-month testingperiod.

“It is critical to understand the durability of our bridges,”Roda said. “In particular, knowing how long a bridge deck,patching material, overlay and other elements of the bridgeare going to last can make a big difference in bridge man-agement. Being able to forecast the longevity of these mate-rials has been an uncertainty. What if we could speed uptime? What if we could put a bridge into ‘fast forward’ toexamine the long-term effects and identify the life of eachelement? FHWA’s Long-Term Bridge Program has exam-ined these questions for some time, and it identified a needfor more rapid assessments. Our team responded to this chal-lenge by building the BEAST.”

According to Roda, it took about a decade of planning tocome up with the concept of full-scale, accelerated bridgetesting. The process sped up over the past two years, whenthe team identified a suitable site, established footprint con-straints, developed specifications for the equipment, andsecured a contract with Applied Research Associates (ARA).

ARA collaborated with CAIT and its partners to design andconstruct the BEAST.

“There were many key decisions made with regard toexperiment capabilities, such as brine application, number ofpotential girders on bridge specimens and others,” Rodasaid. “The team made concessions and worked within budg-et to establish realistic parameters for researchers to adoptduring experimentation so that results would be applicable toinventory bridges.”

The facility was dedicated on Oct. 14, during a publicevent that included a dedication and ribbon cutting, demon-stration, and tours.

Currently, the team is developing the details for the first

BEAST Can Simulate Extreme TrafficLoading, Rapid Environmental Changes

When the team identified a suitable site, established footprint constraints,developed specifications for the equipment, and secured a contract withApplied Research Associates (ARA). ARA collaborated with CAIT and its part-ners to design and construct the BEAST.

“Extreme loading ‘fast forwards’ aging by as much as 30 times, making it possible to simulate 15 to 20 years ofwear-and-tear in just a few months,” explained Andrés Roda, research engineer for the project.

JCB, the world’s largest familyowned heavy equipment manufac-turer, hosted its ninth LadyBamford Center Golf Tournamenton Oct. 17 at The Club at SavannahHarbor. The tournament is heldannually as part of JCB’s fundrais-ing events to benefit The LadyBamford Center. This year’s tour-nament raised $85,000 through 164golfers and sponsorships.

“Giving back to the communitiesin which we work and live is intrin-sic to the JCB culture. Through thisannual golf tournament, and thegenerous support of our suppliers,dealers and friends, we are able toraise and contribute substantialfunding in support of the earlychildhood development programsat The Lady Bamford Center,” saidArjun Mirdha, president and CEOof JCB North America.

Created and opened in 2007 byLady Carole Bamford, wife of JCBowner Lord Anthony Bamford, TheLady Bamford Center is a partner-ship between JCB, The City of

Savannah, Wesley CommunityCenters and The United Way of theCoastal Empire. The center provideseducation and social skills develop-ment to 83 local children from sixweeks to four years of age withdemand so large that there’s a wait-ing list of more than 100 children.

Located at 1410 Richards St. inWest Savannah, the center offerspriority admission to children fromhomeless and low-income families,as well as children with physical,mental or emotional challenges. Itsinteractive curriculum preparesyoung children for kindergartenand elementary school to help themcompete academically with otherchildren. The Lady BamfordCenter is accredited by the NationalAssociation for the Education ofYoung Children (NAEYC). Fewerthan eight percent of all early child-hood centers in the United Statesreceive this prestigious honor.

Tony Whitehurst, tournamentchairman and general manager ofJCB Finance said, “This year

marks our 9th golf tournament andour most successful to date in termsof participation and funds raised.This success would not be possiblewithout the dedication of our sup-pliers and dealers who mirror ourdesire to give back through fundraising efforts for The LadyBamford Center. We look forwardto continuing this annual golf tour-nament for many years to come.”

In addition to the annual golftournament, JCB hosts “MudFest— Run. Ride. Party!” in June eachyear to benefit The Lady BamfordCenter. MudFest features a 5 mi.run in the mud and over obstaclesbuilt around JCB North America’sheadquarters in Savannah, Ga.Together the events serve to raise$200,000 annually to support themission of the center.

Work Commences onHydrema’sNew HQin Cumming, Ga.

HYDREMA from page 20

Local dignitaries, project architects, planners and proj-ect subcontractors made it to the groundcbreaking.

Hydrema’s Mathew Sfeir (L), regional service manag-er/product support specialist, and David Sherry,Hydrema military product coordinator, work hard tokeep guests well-fed during the event.

Contractors took the opportunity to demo the 922HMmodel off-road truck on display.

Federal Emergency Management Agencyto Reimburse DOT for Majority of Worksures should be below 60.

How much the repairs will ultimately cost the state is notyet known. Hall told legislators she hopes to have figures byThanksgiving, after determining how projects match up withfederal aid.

The DOT will get reimbursed for much of the workthrough the Federal Emergency Management Agency andthe Federal Highway Administration’s emergency relief pro-gram. However, the state’s still responsible for up to 25 per-cent of the costs, depending on the type of repair and howquickly it’s done. Some projects aren’t eligible for federal aidat all.

Some legislators were hoping the federal aid could helpthe state modernize portions of the state’s long-crumblinginfrastructure. Even before the waters rose, less than 20 per-cent of the state’s 40,560 non-interstate highway miles weredeemed in “good’’ shape. According to some estimates, theDOT needs an additional $500 million a year for decadesjust to get roads to fair condition.

But Hall made clear the damage must be directly relatedto the disaster to qualify for aid. And, with few exceptions,the federal government won’t reimburse for improvements.

“It really hasn’t done anything to our road problem inSouth Carolina other than make it worse,’’ said House Waysand Means Chairman Brian White, R-Anderson. “We’retalking about repairs — getting it back to where it was

before’’ and spending a lot of money to do so. Hall said the exception is for a “handful’’ of bridges

destroyed beyond repair. Their replacements can be built tocurrent standards.

Generally, however, “if a bridge was substandard before,it will still be substandard after the repairs,’’ she said.

Of the 200 bridges closed in the storm’s wake, 43 wereamong the roughly 2,000 bridges statewide rated substan-dard before the historic rainfall, she said.

“Certainly the reimbursements are a help to SouthCarolina for the losses. It does not in any way change whatthe true needs are of our infrastructure system,’’ said Rep.Gary Simrill, R-Rock Hill, who led the panel that crafted aroad-funding plan that passed the House last April. It wouldhave generated an additional $400 million yearly for road-work, largely by increasing taxes on fuel and vehicle salestaxes.

“That infrastructure bill was important then and is evenmore important now,’’ Simrill said.

A Senate bill would raise roughly $800 million annuallyfor roadwork. But opponents of raising the gas tax blocked avote before the legislative session ended in June. That billwill be back up for debate when the Legislature returns inJune.

Location Benefits Include Proximity to Mississippi Riverthis type project. And no one builds a millbetter than Jim Bell, our construction man-ager.”

The new facility, which has receivednational attention, will combine the wideproduct mix and superior grade capabilitiesof an integrated mill with the flexibility andtechnological advancements of a mini-mill.Big River Steel plans to begin productionnext year with an annual mix of hot rolled,cold rolled, pickled and oiled and galvanizedsteels.

“Big River Steel is the largest economicdevelopment project in Arkansas’s history,”said Bula. “We located inMississippi County because it is anarea of the state our [late] Chairmanand CEO John Correnti liked to call‘steel heaven’ due to its proximity tothe BNSF railroad, location close toI-55, and direct access to theMississippi River.”

In August, Correnti, a veteransteel company executive, passedaway unexpectedly. Big River willnow be managed by its operatingcommittee, and Correnti’s death isnot expected to affect constructionplans.

Work on the high-profile projectbegan shortly after officials closedon financing in mid-2014. Currently,site prep is complete, with more than1.1 million cu. yds. (841,010 cu m)of site excavation. Of the 235,000cu. yds. (179,670 cu m) of concreterequired, 112,295 cu. yds. (85,855cu m) have been poured to date,including a concrete pour for thecaster basement, as well as the scrappit and zinc pot basement.Foundation work for the hot mill’stunnel furnace also is underway. Atotal of 11,500 tons (10,432 t) ofrebar have been used, with 22,000additional tons (19,958 t) anticipatedby the end of November.

About 30 percent of the structural work iscomplete. Most notable is the use of jumbohollow structural sections, or HSS, that wereerected in the finishing mill complex, whichwill be 747,060 sq. ft. (69,404 sq m) underroof.

In April 2015, a major milestone wasreached in the construction of the flex millwith the arrival of the first supply of steeltubing for the cold mill. Tractor-trailersdelivered thousands of tons of hollow struc-tural sections that will make the structuralbase for over half the mill.

“Big River Steel is focused on producingnewer niche steels that will help our cus-tomers innovate and improve their end prod-ucts,” said Bula. “We believe we see that

opportunity in structural tubing, or HSS,verses wide flange. HSS is not the same tra-ditional red iron used for structural steel.HSS is the new kid on the block. In fact,only a few months before we began engi-neering our buildings, the HSS industrylaunched a higher strength product calledA1085. In conjunction with the Steel TubeInstitute, we evaluated it and realized itwould be a good choice for our project.

“The torsional strength is considerablybetter, as it does not have a weak side. It canalso deliver higher strength with less weight,which helps on logistical costs to the job site,as well as in our building foundations. It’s a

cleaner look. We believe this is the most sig-nificant heavy industrial project in NorthAmerica to use HSS. Admittedly, anotheradvantage to us is that HSS is made from flatrolled steel — the steel that we will producehere in Osceola. Wide flange does not useflat rolled steel. So, while we believe HSSwas a superior product in total cost, strengthand look for our project, we also are happyto be using the products of our future cus-tomers.”

As for construction concerns, one of thebiggest benefits of this location is the prox-imity to the Mississippi River, according toBula.

“But that has been a challenge during con-struction, due to water levels. Regardless, weare committed to an on-time delivery of the

mill next year.“We continue to work on more foundation

and structural progress in the melt shop andhot mill complex, which will be over243,405 square feet. The railroad that willaid transportation on the site is underway, asis much of the piping, electrical and mechan-ical work. Right now, we have about 800construction professionals on site, and thatnumber will continue to grow to about 2,000when we are at maximum.

“The response from the marketplace hasbeen very supportive. As I am out givingpresentations and meeting with future cus-tomers, what seems to resonate the most is

our push for the industry to do more, to com-pete, to push the boundaries of steel. Wehave to evolve the industry. If we don’t startinnovating, we will never have young peo-ple wanting to get into this business. If wedon’t start innovating, new materials willcontinue to eek away at our markets. And ifwe don’t start innovating, someone elsewill.”

For Bula and others, the new mill was anopportunity to think outside the box.

“We were innovative in using HSS tobuild an industrial project of this size. Wewere innovative in the equipment we choseto run our mill to allow us to make nichesteels. Innovation is fueling our research anddevelopment efforts. Very early on, we hireda product development manager and a tech-

nical service manager so we could startworking on R&D and product developmenteven before the mill starts up. We believe theworld doesn’t need another steel mill. Butthe world does need a steel mill willing topush the boundaries of what steel can do.”

Big River started construction in mid-2014, and will produce its first coils of steelnext summer. The plans had to be approvedby lawmakers authorizing the state to issue$125 million in general obligation bondsunder the authority of Amendment 82 andregulatory approvals. As required by theamendment, Gov. Mike Beebe referred theproject to the legislature for its consideration.

Amendment 82 allows the statelegislature to approve up to fivepercent of the state’s general rev-enue budget to be used for bond-ing of super economic develop-ment projects.

Bordered to the east by theMississippi River with directwater access, the mill is locatednear a main line railroad in whatis reportedly the fastest growingsteel consuming region in theUnited States. Big River SteelLLC and Gov. Beebe formallyannounced plans for the plant in2013, explaining that theMississippi County facility willdirectly employ a significantnumber or workers, with aver-age compensation of $75,000 ayear. A formal groundbreakingtook place in September 2014.

During the 2013 Arkansaslegislative session, rival Nucorprotested the state’s financialbacking of the Big River Steelproject, claiming a third steelplant in the county might resultin Nucor cutting jobs. Nucorfiled a federal lawsuit, chargingBig River Steel’s mill would vio-late the Clean Air Act.

Big River Steel describes the flex mill asbeing as environmentally resourceful, as it istechnologically advanced, setting new stan-dards in energy efficiency. The hydraulicpower roof system in the electric arc furnacereduces the amount of heat escaping, reduc-ing energy consumption.

“Beyond steel being the most recycledmaterial in the nation, our positive impact onthe environment will be seen in the steels wewill produce,” said Bula. Our products willbe used to go into the earth to drill for oil andgas and then to transmit it downstream. Oursteel will move energy to electrical plantsthat generate power and puts it on the grid,and it will be used to lightweight automo-biles for better fuel efficiency. We will help

Mill’s Economic Impact Includes More Than 500 New Jobsto make the process of finding, moving, gen-erating and using energy more efficient.”

Bula also said the plant’s economicimpact can’t be overstated.

“When we are fully operational, BigRiver will employ over 500 people. Twoworkforce development programs arealready being offered by ArkansasNortheastern College, helping prepare localresidents to work at the mill. There will alsobe downstream processors who will locatehere and bring with them even more oppor-tunities. The biggest impact on our commu-nity and the entire region will be the goodpaying jobs that we are creating.”

Osceola Mayor Dickie Kennemore said,“Mississippi County, obviously, is not theSilicon Valley, so we don’t have the trainedpersonnel to supply a highly skilled work-force. What we do have is a workforce that’sinnovative and accustomed to hard, laborintensive work. The steel industry and ourworkforce are suited for one another.

“The steel industry’s wages are muchhigher than any of the other job opportunitiesin the area. Also, as agriculture has becomemore mechanized, the number of displacedworker has risen, proportionally. So, foryears our unskilled, displaced workers haveeither left the area, been underemployed orunemployed. While the rest of the nationhas enjoyed an expanding economy,Mississippi County has had double digitunemployment and population decline.With the recruitment of the steel mills, wefeel like our future is much brighter.”

Kennemore said, “John Correnti’s opin-ion of the site was based on five factors thatare required for a super site — water trans-portation, being located near an interstatehighway, railroad accessibility, availabilityof high-voltage electrical supply and a site of1,000 acres or more. This site has all of theseassets, plus a suitable workforce, and sub-stantial state, county, and city incentives.”

Kennemore said the site and an adjacentproperty were considered five times by largesteel companies.

“We have been marketing this site forabout 15 years. There were three sites in thesouth considered super sites. One in Mobile,Ala., one near New Orleans and our site.Theisen-Krupt considered our site, twice,and eventually located in Mobile, Ala.,because they preferred access to the oceangoing ships. This mill was not a mini-mill,but an integrated mill, which ships in rawmaterials from South America. Also, theybuilt right after Katrina hit the coast and theygot some special financing from the feds thatwe couldn’t offer.

“Mr. Correnti also looked at the site anddecided to build here, but politics gotinvolved and the state backed out on its

incentive package. Mississippi stepped upand offered a deal he couldn’t refuse.Warren Steel selected this site, but, again,politics kept them from locating here.Finally, we put the deal together, with muchsupport from Gov. Mike Bebee, and after thefour other opportunities, we got BRS. In myopinion, we got the best of all the mills.”

“Our family business, as well as all thebusinesses in town, now have a very brightfuture. I certainly have a selfish interest inseeing the mill come to Osceola. As a life-long resident, I also take a lot of pride inwhat we have accomplished. I get a reward-ing feeling just being a part of the largestindustrial complex to ever come to the state.

I drive out to the site often, and can’t fullyexpress the gratification that I feel, watchingthis great project come to fruition.

“We never quit, even after being knockeddown four times. We taxed ourselves toenable us to be able to offer industrial incen-tives, and were the first county in the state todo so. We contributed $16 million, locally,to bring this facility to Mississippi County.When BRS comes on line, with its produc-tion and the steel production of Nucor Steel,Mississippi County is projected to be thenumber one steel producing county in theUSA, and we’re proud to say it’s made in theUSA.”

According to Clif Chitwood, president of

Mississippi County EconomicDevelopment, the economy in MississippiCounty has struggled for 20 years.

“We lost jobs in assembly and textiles, aswell as jobs associated with the closure ofEaker Air Force Base in Blytheville,Arkansas. In addition, the loss of 6,500 serv-ice personnel was a heavy blow. The arrivalof Nucor in the late 1980s and the addition ofa second Nucor plant in the early 1990s didmuch to ameliorate those losses and setMississippi County on a new path.

“In the intervening years, we have hadnew oil and gas pipe mills employing over2,000 people arrive. There are now close to6,000 people earning their living in the steelindustry in the Blytheville area. We believethe BRS mill will have the same dramaticand positive effect in the Osceola area.”

According to Chitwood, the attributesrequired for a successful mill are excellentriver access, in order to bring in vast quanti-ties of scrap metal, and a major rail line andinterstate access to deliver finished product.

“In addition, and perhaps the overridingfactor, is the availability of large amounts ofcorrectly priced electricity.”

Chitwood also said watching the mill takeshape has been an interesting experience.

“Every week it grows higher and deeper,spreading out all the time.”

Mississippi County administrator JudgeRandy Carney also is encouraged by thenew mill’s impact on the local community.

“Initially, there will be 1,200 constructionjobs over a period of two years, and then aminimum of 525 permanent jobs. Also,there is an expected 17 percent increase insales tax for Mississippi County.

“This is the largest industrial project inArkansas, with several other ancillary indus-tries committed in our near future. Our goalin Mississippi County is to become theindustrial capital of the state. This projectputs us in the top three, as far as the numberof industrial jobs.”

Carney said it’s an ideal location for themill, because Osceola has both the infra-structure and workforce needed. The ongo-ing construction at the job site means thelong-talked-about project is finally becom-ing a reality.

“One year ago, it was farm land, and nowit has hundreds of thousands of concrete pil-lars poured, steel structure and all the dirtwork being done. Our people have seen thelargest industrial project in the state from thebeginning stages, through what will be nextyear a completed state-of-the-art steel mill.”

Designed to offer a variety of steels for energy, power and transportation mar-kets, the new, $1.3 billion Big River Steel mill in Osceola, Ark., will be the world’sfirst flat-rolled flex mill when it opens in mid-2016.

Work on the high-profile project began shortly after officials closed on financingin mid-2014.
