Cuddy Group has
appointed Paul Geary to
the position
of estimating
director, a
role that he
occupied
for the last
seven years
at Controlled
Demolition
Group.
In total,
Mr Geary has 35 years of
experience gained in the
contracting and demolition
industries. He joins ex-
colleague Jim McEwan,
who also
joined Cuddy
Group at the
end of last
year after
four years
with CDG.
Cuddy
Group is
one of the
UKs largest
demolition
contractors and,
according to managing
director Mike Cuddy, is
growing very rapidly and
therefore is stepping up
recruitment.
Jon Carter has been
appointed as vice president,
controller and chief
accounting office of Terex
Corporation. Mr Carter was
chief financial offer for Genie
Industries before joining
Terex Corp.
Holly Bennett, one of
only two fully qualified female
explosives engineers in the
world, has left Controlled
Demolition Group. She is
joining Burnley, UK-based,
industry training consultancy
Training Assessment Safety
Consultants (TASC) where
she will fill the role of

Giant jaws
A new record-breaker has arrived in the shape of Italian demolition
attachment manufacturer Mantovanibennes latest multitool, the
MS120R. The result of many months of development work, the
MS120R is designed for use on excavators weighing from 70-125 tons,
weighs in at 12,000 kg (26,400lb) and is fully rotatable. While not the
heaviest multi processor in the world, the MS120Rs maximum jaw
opening of 2.5 m (8.2 ft) when fitted with crusher jaws makes it the
widest opening tool of this type in the world. When fitted with shear
jaws, it offers a maximum opening width of 1.175 mm (46.3 in).
The MS120 has been specifically
designed in response to a request
from one of Mantovanibennes
customers who was searching for
a solution that would speed the
ground level demolition of large
dimension reinforced concrete
columns, pillars and plinths,
and at the same time carry
the work as quietly as
possible. These building
elements can be demolished
using standard hydraulic
hammers, but this involves
considerable more time and
generates substantial noise.
The first unit has been
supplied to Italian contractor
F lli Baraldi, who will use it on a
125 ton Liebherr 984. According to
Mantovanibenne, versions suitable
for use on other makes of suitably
sized machines will be available in
the near future. d&ri
A novel mobile grinder has
made its first European
appearance on Merseyside,
in the north-west UK.
Developed in the USA by 2G
Environmental, and available
in that country since 1995,
the Green Grinder has
been imported by its UK
counterpart and is actively
being backed by the Clean
Merseyside Centre, who has
worked with 2G to get the
unit licensed for use in the
UK. It can turn up to eight
skip loads per day of new
build construction waste,
such as blocks, brick and
gypsum through to pallets,
woods and shingles, turning
it into reusable material. The
company told D&Ri that as
far as it is aware, the Green
Grinder has yet to be used to
process demolition waste.

Wood to burn
A test has been carried out by TES Filer City power station in
Michigan, USA, under the eyes of officials from the states
Department of Environmental Quality, to see if demolition wood
debris can be used as fuel to generate electricity. The officials
monitored a test burn to help determine whether the debris,
sourced from Chicago demolition projects, can be burned in
compliance with state regulations and the plants DEQ permit.
The material was a mix of clean timber from demolition and green
wood from tree trimming. The volume of treated or painted wood can
only make up 4.5 % of the waste stream, according to the plants
state permit. The DEQ has yet to decide whether new requirements
or restrictions would be necessary for the Chicago waste to be
disposed of in this way.
The plant hopes to be able to use this waste wood alongside
the coal, other wood waste and tire chips that it burns to generate
electricity for Consumers Power Co and steam for the Packaging
Corporation of Americas adjacent paper mill.
In early February the Portland, Oregon, suburb of Tualatin saw
the official opening of Jewell Attachments new 60,000 ft

) manufacturing facility, where the company will carry
out its conversion operations. Jewell specialises in the preparation
of excavators for use in special duty roles in the demolition,
construction, logging and material handling industries, as well as the
manufacture of attachments for these industries.

Planning for growth
Monday 27th February saw the official opening of Fintec Crushing
and Screenings new factory extension that will allow the company
to double its production level of 200 units per year to 400. The event
was combined with the first ever Fintec dealers meeting, with
around 70 people present all told, attending from many countries.
The new facility is just one
stage in managing director Hubert
Watsons ambitious plans for the
company (in conjunction with
minority partner Sandvik, who
supplies the crushing expertise
to the partnership). He told D&Ri:
Our goal is to turn Fintec into a
top three
crushing and screening equipment
manufacturer within the next five
years. To do this will involve further
product development, to take us
to the point where we have a 10
to 12 model range by the end of
that period.
The company is currently
working hard to expand its dealer
network around the world, with
three new dealers just having been
appointed to service the French
market.
The new three bay extension
has been designed specifically to
be used for initial fabrication work
(in two bays), as well as being
Fintec Crushing and screening has officially
opened its new production facility near
Dungannon, Northern Ireland, which will
allow it to double production

Rewarding excellence
Caterpillar Work Tools Europe has joined a select group
of companies through its gaining Oliver Wight Operational
Excellence certification for its Den Bosch facility in the
Netherlands. Cat Work Tools Europe is one of a select few
companies around the world to gain this certification, which is
considered a major milestone in achieving Business Excellence.
In order to be certified, a company must provide evidence of business
process excellence, superior performance and a robust master plan
to achieve a Vision of Excellence through effective strategies, best
practices and a relentless commitment to continuous improvement.
Den Bosch has joined four other Caterpillar facilities worldwide that
have achieved this goal.
The US
Association
of Equipment
Manufacturers
has introduced
a 48-page safety
manual intended
for users and renters of scrap and material handlers. It
covers basic dos and donts for typical work situations,
covering topics such as general safety, start-up and
shut-down procedures, and guidelines for safe operation
and maintenance. The guide covers scrap and material
handlers in general, and is therefore intend to supplement
and not replace existing safety codes, laws and
regulations or manufacturers operating manuals.
The 2006 edition of the D&Ri
Buyers Guide will shortly be
available, with full listings of all
types of demolition attachments
and equipment, along with
listings of general construction
equipment commonly found
on demolition sites around
the world. This data will form
an invaluable tool for your
equipment selection activities.
The Buyers Guide will be
available in several formats
both printed and electronic
to provide the maximum
flexibility and use, and has
been compiled using an
in-house developed directory
software package to provide
an easily updatable access
point for manufacturers. If you manufacture equipment for
the industry you can easily update your own company-specific
data at any time from now on. For more information about
accessing the system, contact Lindsay Gale at lindsay.gale@khl.

selected product specific listings that will be included in

This may not be the last factory

henever you meet a senior manager or executive in the
construction equipment business they usually have hydraulic
oil in their veins. Most have worked in the industry all their
lives, often with the same company.
On the one hand, this goes a long way to giving the industry its
(generally) friendly relationship-oriented drive. The same people crop
up time and again, and over the years, business relationships develop a
strong element of personal friendship.
But it could be argued that this strength is also a source of weakness.
Where are the ideas from outside? Where do the fresh approaches come
from? How innovative can the industry be if its senior mangers have only
been exposed to one specific sector and business model?
In the past, promotion from within was a defining feature of Japanese
corporations across the board. The concept of corporate loyalty and the
expectation of a job for life meant many peoples careers were invariably
spent with one company.
This all makes the appointment of Tsutomu Sakurai as president of
Komatsu Europe an intriguing one. Although he started his career
with Komatsu in the mid-1970s, he left the company in 1995 to join
Applied Machinery, a US corporation with annual sales over 8 billion
(US$9.6 billion), which leads the world in the supply of equipment for the
manufacture of integrated circuits.
Mr Sakurai has been back with Komatsu for just under a year, and
acknowledges that his appointment has elements of the extraordinary to
it. Its very unusual for a Japanese company to appoint an executive who
has just spent 10 years working for another company. Its the first time
Komatsu has done it, he said.
But while Mr Sakurais appointment is a break from the norm for both
the company and the industry in general, Komatsus choice of president for
its European business sends a strong message about what the company
feels is needed.
The semi conductor business is a completely different business to
this one. It moves very quickly. But maybe this different business culture
can make a positive impact on Komatsus business model, and I think
thats why Komatsu put me into the most traditional market Europe,
said Mr Sakurai.
Manifesto
What do I want to do? asked Mr Sakurai, At the moment were moving
towards more market solutions. We have already established a retail
finance company, and we now offer a captive finance operation locally. We
also offer various leasing options.
Most executives in the
construction equipment
business have worked in
the industry all their lives.
Not so Tsutomu Sakurai, the
new president of Komatsu
Europe, who is using his
10 years experience in the
semi-conductor industry
to reshape the way the
company does business.

It sounds simple enough, but Mr Sakurais vision entails a
re-think of how Komatsu approaches the European market.
In the semi-conductor industry, everything is done by the
manufacturers, and no-one has a dealer or distributor. The
manufacturer takes care of the full life cycle of the product,
and that is the best approach for quality assurance.
Dealer networks are very important, but I think this
industry needs to mix and match between direct sales and
distribution. Manufacturers that just believe in this 19th
century dealer distribution model will lose market share,
because they just cant provide solutions, he stated.
One aspect of delivering solutions that has played on the
minds of many European manufacturers over recent years is
how to approach the equipment rental sector. The market has matured
at an incredible pace in recent years, with many contractors freeing-up
capital by outsourcing their non-core, or even all, their equipment needs
to rental companies.
But the way manufacturers have addressed the growth in rental has
varied widely. At one extreme is Caterpillar, which has encouraged its
dealers to set up Cat Rental Store franchises. At the other end of the scale
is JCBs chairman, Sir Anthony Bamford, who has frequently described
such initiatives as manufacturers competing with their customers.
I have a very clear view on this, said Mr Sakurai, There is captive
rental, like Caterpillar does, and I am totally against that. Customers need a
lot of different equipment and there is just not one supplier. Even Caterpillar
does not have a total range of products it doesnt offer concrete mixers
and cranes and so on.
So I think if we went for a manufacturer-oriented rental house it would
be very limiting. It is not a solution. The other point is that manufacturers
are not very good at this kind of daily turnover business. None of them have
ever succeeded in any industry. Nobody.
Day to day businesses like rental are completely different, and today
none of these captive rental houses are profitable. There may be artificial
profits because manufacturers can offer discounts on the equipment, but
its not the right way.
Mr Sakurais approach is to focus on supplying
independent rental houses with high quality machines,
through a newly established central sales team.
If our products and solutions are better than others
we will succeed. The rental market is our customer,
and I have set up a direct sales team here that is
targeting the top 20 or 30 rental companies in Europe,
he said.
According to Mr Sakurai, this model also fits better
with the increasingly cross-border nature of European
rental. Rental machines move around so much that the
old geographic territories dont mean anything. Customers
dont want to have to talk to a new dealer every time they
move a machine around. Thats not a solution, he said.
After the boom
Like most manufacturers, Komatsu is reaping the benefits of a buoyant
European market, but Mr Sakurai is mindful of the future. As well as
changing the way the company conducts its new equipment sales,
he feels there is a place for the semi conductor industrys cradle
to grave mentality, which means more active management of used
equipment markets.
I want to utilise this good period to reform the way we do business,
including used equipment. Sooner or later the peak demand will end and
there will be an abundance of used equipment in Europe. Im preparing
for that period when we will have a lot of equipment to export to places like
North Africa and the Middle East.
The good thing about European equipment is that it has the lowest
engine and noise emissions, and low fuel consumption. They are the
most sophisticated and environmentally-friendly machines, and that is
becoming more and more important worldwide. Low specification used
equipment will not be attractive in a few years because governments all
over the world are developing laws on sustainability and environmental
protection. People will prefer to buy high-spec used European equipment,
Mr Sakurai concluded. d&ri

I
t is all change for the 2006
d&ri100 listing. Of the 100
companies qualifying for the
d&ri100, 25 feature on the list
for the first time, with the highest
placed of these, LVI Services Inc,
coming in at number 8 The top
five has also changed order, with
Penhall International taking the top
slot away from Manafort Borthers,
which is pushed into third place as
a result of Brandenburg being one
of the few companies to retain its
2005 place at number 2.

is US$2,701 million, up some
US$325 million on the same
figure last year. However, I feel it
would be inappropriate to use this
comparison to draw conclusions
about the state of the industry
because of the considerable
number of new entrants to the list.
The top 50 contractors between
them accounted for US$2,074
million, 78% of the total d&ri100
turnover. The top 25 accounted for
US$1,494, or just over 55%.
Perhaps of more note is that
of the 75 companies that were
listed last year, 43 (58%) indicated
growth, of varying degrees, in
their turnover over the previous
year, while only 28 (37%) showed
a decline in turnover. This appears
to suggest that the industry has
generally been experiencing a
degree of growth.
Where the 25 companies that
no longer appear in the list are
concerned, there are a number
of reasons for this. The most
common, unfortunately, is that
they failed to respond to our
repeated information requests
and we were unable to obtain
relevant financial information to
update their data. There are a very
few whos performance dipped
substantially on their 2004 results,
sufficient to remove them from
the list, but generally these were
companies towards the bottom of
the d&ri100.
As was the case in 2005, the
top half of the list is dominated
by North American companies.
The top five is all-US, with a
total turnover of US$703 million

using both the full circulation

variety of other sources. I would
like to thank all who responded.
If you did not respond, I
would like to encourage you to

selected responses using
these independent sources
but, nevertheless, can accept
no responsibility for any errors
or omissions that may have

By a process of elimination,
that leaves just nine contractors
on the list from outside these two

V
isitors to Intermat will not be disappointed
with the quality and quantity of new
products on display. New noise and
engine emissions laws, and a booming
construction equipment market, mean there
will be literally hundreds of new machines and
other equipment launched at the show, many
of which will find applications in the demolition
and recycling industries.
Most of the new machines on display
will be updated versions of existing models.
Greater performance, fuel-efficiency and safety
are common themes and manufacturers in
all segments, from earthmoving to lifting, are
designing their machines with these in mind.
As a result, construction machines are
becoming more and more sophisticated,
with on-board computers and engine
management systems playing a
crucial role.

Hitachi will be
unveiling its new
ZW wheeled loader
range
Earthmoving
The earthmoving sector machines
above 10 tonnes operating weight
will arguably see the most significant
launches at Intermat. The introduction
of Tier 3/Stage IIIa emissions laws for
130 to 560 kW engines at the start
of this year means that several brand
new series of earthmoving machines
will be at the show featuring new diesel
power packs.
This is most apparent with crawler
excavators and wheeled loaders. More than
40 new mid- to large-sized machines from the
major manufacturers, all with Tier 3/Stage IIIa
engines, will be unveiled.
There will doubtless be further models
launched at Intermat that we are not yet
aware of. Perhaps the most telling thing
about the Whats new at a glance table
is not the machines we know about at
this stage, but the gaps for certain
manufacturers.
These will come. The Tier 3/Stage IIIa
engine emission laws are a legal requirement
if a new machine in the 130 to 560 kW
power band does not have a compliant engine,
it cannot be sold in Europe or the USA. There
are flexibility provisions that allow a small
number of old Stage engines and machines
to be marketed, but these are limited. As far

as the major manufacturers are concerned, the
changeover to Tier 3/Stage IIIa models generally
has to be made now.
Nowhere is this the flood of new machines
more apparent than with Caterpillars launches.
Intermat will see the company launch eight
new D series crawler excavators from 20 to
37.5 tonnes, and five new H series wheeled
loaders from 18.5 to 30.5 tonnes.
Komatsus three new crawler excavators
in the 20 to 30 tonne classes all feature its
ECOT3 Tier 3/Stage III3a compliant engines.
The 21.4 to 22.9 tonne PC210-8, 24.6 to
26.2 tonne PC240-8 and 29.2 to 30.2 tonne
PC290-8 offer the operator two working modes
for either heavy or light work.
Features on Komatsus new D155AX-6
crawler dozer include a new blade and ripper
design, powertrain improvements and the move
to the companys K-bogie undercarriage.
The 9.4 m
3
capacity Sigma dozer blade
has a convex profile, designed for maximum
penetration and rolling, while still retaining a flat
edge for grading.
In the wheeled loader segment, high up
the weight category, is Komatsus WA600-6
wheeled loader, with a maximum operating
weight just under 53 tonnes and a 393 kW
Tier 3/Stage IIIa engine. Despite its size, the
noise level in the cab is just 73 dB(A),the
lowest in this machine class, according to the
company.
Back with excavators, New Hollands E150
Blade Runner is an interesting machine that
combines the functions of an excavator with
a dozer. The short radius 16 tonne tracked
machine comprises a 14 tonne upper structure
mounted on a 2.59 m wide 20 tonne-class

crawler undercarriage. The power, angle, tilt (PAT) blade on the front
of the undercarriage has its own hydraulic circuit, which combines with
oversized motors to perform to the same levels as a dedicated mid-
sized crawler dozer. The blade also has wings on its edges to improve
dozing performance, and these can be folded back or removed if not
required.
New Holland will also be showing the Multi Function version of its
E215LC excavator, originally launched at last years Samoter exhibition,
which features a four-piece boom for long-reach applications.
Sister company Cases main new product launch is the 69 tonne
CX700 crawler excavator, a heavy-duty machine between the existing
CX460 and CX800 models and the first Case excavator to use an
electronically controlled Tier 3/Stage IIIa engine, a 345 kW Isuzu.
Hitachi will be launching several new crawler excavators, with more
to follow later this year. New at the show will be the 25 tonne
class Zaxis 250-3, 28 tonne Zaxis 280-3 and 35 tonne Zaxis 350-3.
The companys stand will also include the 52 tonne class Zaxis
520 LCH-3, and 67 tonne Zaxis 670 LCH-3, while the models coming
later in the year are the 47 tonne Zaxis 470 LCH-3 and 87 tonne
Zaxis 870 LCH-3.
The companys stand will also feature its new ZW series of wheeled
loaders, which, like the new excavators, feature Tier 3/Stage IIIa
compliant engines.
Liebherrs latest wheeled excavator is the 11 tonne class A
309 Litronic, the companys smallest model in this range. Power
comes from a 63 kW diesel, cooled by a thermostacially controlled fan
that only runs when needed. lso new in this range is the 17 tonne

A 900 C Litronic, which is powered by a
95 kW engine, again fitted with an on demand
cooling system.
Liebherr will also launch its new range of
2plus2 wheeled loaders, with the first models
now fitted with Tier 3/Stage IIIa compliant
engines. The new models are the L 566,
L 576 and L 580, and it will be the L 576 that
Liebherr has on show.
In the crawler excavator sector, Liebherrs
latest machine is the 37.8 to 42.7 tonne
R 944 C Litronic, which is fitted with a Tier 3/
Stage IIIa engine. The machine has repositioned
hoses and a restyled engine cover for better
visibility, and the large cab has an automatic
air conditioning system. The hand controls have
march-april 2006 d&ri 28
been updated with the hydraulic system now
being more responsive for faster cycle times.
The machine is available with four chassis
options.
Doosan Infracore the construction
equipment business created by Doosan
Groups acquisition last year of Daewoo
Heavy Industries will display more than
30 machines. The company will show a new
range of large DX excavators, comprising five
models between 30 and 51 tonnes, powered by
the companys own Tier 3/Stage IIIa common
rail engines.
Doosan will also launch two new wheeled
loaders at the show, the 162 kW, 18 tonne
Doosans new 23 tonne wheeled loader,
the DL400
DL300 and the 204 kW, 23 tonne DL400.
Again the machines feature Tier 3/Stage IIIa
engines Doosans own in the DL300 and a
Cummins in the DL400 and both are fitted
with ZFs Ergo Power transmission.
New additions to Volvos range are long
boom versions of its L60E, L70E, L90E and
L110E wheeled loaders, which mean long
boom options are now available for models
from the 11 tonne L60 E right up to the
50 tonne L330E. This option adds between
0.42 and 0.52 m to the loaders dump height,
depending on the model.
Volvo will also celebrate 40 years of
manufacturing articulated haulers, which happily
coincides with the production of its 50000th
machine. This special truck will be on display
at the show.
Hyundai will be using Intermat to unveil
its new flagship excavator, the 50 tonne
R500LC-7A, which slots in above the retained
45 tonne R450LC-7. Powered by a 250 kW
Tier 3/Stage IIIa compliant Cummins engine,
the machine can be fitted with up to a
3.2 m
3
bucket.
Another top of the range addition is the
companys 30 tonne HL780-7A wheeled loader,
powered by the same Cummins engine as
Hyundais new excavator, but rated slightly
higher at 259 kW.
JCB will be presenting two new tracked
excavators at the show, the 19 tonne class
JS190 Auto and 33 tonne class JS330
Auto. The smaller machine features a 98 kW
engine, which the company says gives it 10%
more productivity over 18 tonne machines,
with 14% more lifting capacity and 5% faster
boom cycles.
The PZ linkage on Komatsus
WA150PZ-5 offers the power of a traditional
Z-bar linkage with the ability to parallel lift

The larger excavator features a
202 kW Isuzu Stage IIIA engine
13% more power than its
predecessor had. The machine
features electronic oil level
monitoring, improved cold starting
and all the daily maintenance
checks can be done from ground
level.
Also on show will be the first
of a new generation of wheeled
excavators in the shape of
JCBs 17 tonne class JS175W
Auto. A larger counterweight
has helped add 14% to the
machines lifting capacity, and
cruise control is available as
an option.
There will also be two
new wheeled loaders on
display, the 426 and 436,
which have 13% higher payload
capacities than their predecessors. Operators
will appreciate the large cabs 50% bigger
than on previous models and the fact that
all daily maintenance checks can be done from
ground level.

The GWS is a dynamic weighing system
designed for use with loading machines and
excavators and allows the weight to be
monitored during the loading cycle. According
to Genesis, the system allows for faster
cycle times because the operator does not
have to interrupt the cycle to get accurate
weight data.
Combi Wear Parts is extending its range of
tooth systems for excavator and loader buckets
to cover all mini-machines on the market
less than 10 tonnes. Two tooth types will be

bucket break out forces of up to 35 or 55 kN
(excavator) and 60 or 85 kN (loader).
MTG will be showing three new products at
Intermat, the MTGtwist, a hammerless tooth-

for Caterpillar machines, with the MTGtwist
retainer solution as an option.
Compact and utility equipment
Unlike the earthmoving sector, there are no
new engine emissions laws driving new product
launches for compact and utility (machines
up to about 10 tonnes) equipment. But the
this type of machine is remarkably popular in
Europe and the continuing development of the
regions rental sector is driving up sales at 20%
per year for some equipment types.
So needless to say there will
be plenty of new machines on
show at Intermat, mainly due to
manufacturers plugging gaps in
their ranges, or in some cases

pressure and work with very little oil flow. The
series is currently made up of five models,
two small ones the IMI 18M (190 KG) and
IMI 26M (240 kg) and three larger units
IMI 170M (1800 kg), IMI 240M (2400 kg)
and IMI 290M (3000 kg). These also feature
closed casings which protect the body of the
breaker and are made up of few parts making
maintenance simple and easy to carry out.
Spanish hydraulic breaker manufacturer
Tabe will be presenting its range of products at
Intermat. The highlight of the exhibit will be the
new AGB-95 breaker first seen at SMOPYC
in 2005.
The Volvo stand will also feature the
companys HB range of hydraulic breakers,
a new seven-model line-up ranging from
0.82 to 3.8 tonnes in operating weight. This
comprehensive range covers carrier weights
from 9 to 70 tonnes, meaning there is a good
match available for any of Volvos midi, medium
and large excavators.
Wacker has introduced two new drilling and
Neusons 38Z3, a
3.5 tonne zero tail-
swing mini excavator
breaking hammers to its range of products for
the demolition and recycling market. The Magic
EH 9 BL(M) and Magic EHB 11 BL(M) feature
an integrated electronic converter that transform
230 V single phase current into three phase
current that enables the hammers to use three
phase motors. This significantly improves long-
term operation because the three phase motors
do not need to have the carbon brushes or
rotors replaced.
Genesis will be launching two new products

Neuson iillustrates both points well. The
company is extending its range of zero tail-
swing excavators with the launch of the
3.5 tonne class 38Z3. A laterally installed
engine provides room for a large cab, which
is tiltable to improve maintenance access. At
the lowest end of the weight categories, it has
two new small machines. Its yet to be named
800 kg (1760 lb) machine is just 700 mm wide,
and is powered by 3-cylinder Yanmar diesel
engine. New in the 1.5 tonne class is the 1403.
Also new is the 6503, a 6,5 tonne wheeled
excavator. The company also has a new supply
agreement with Montabert, which will allow it
to supply the Ingersoll Rand companys popular
hydraulic breakers under the Neuson brand.
Neusons parent company meanwhile, the
Neuson Kramer Group, has further expanded

two models in the range are the 501s (510 kg
capacity) and 701s (680 kg capacity), which is
also available as a powerflow model.
Originally launched in June last year, Intermat

WA100M-5. The companys Easy Fork loader
linkage enables parallel movement and high
payloads in pallet fork applications, and a
hydraulic quick coupler is fitted as standard,
allowing rapid switching between the forks,
buckets and other attachments. The loaders
have a top speed of 30 km/h, allowing
them to move quickly between sites, and
they also feature a tilt-up cab for easy
maintenance access.
Further up the weight category is the
WA150PZ-5, weighing in at 8.7 tonnes with a
71 kW engine. The machine features Komatsus
new PZ boom linkage, a modified Z-bar
design that provides high break-out forces with
the parallel movement required in pallet fork
applications.
Four key new machines in New Hollands
range are the W50TC, W60TC, W70TC and
W80TC tool carrier wheeled loaders, which
replace their non-tool carrier predecessors.
The new loaders have a mono boom front
end with the cylinders located underneath,
giving the operator an excellent view of the
front attachment.
All four feature Deutz engines, rated at
40, 44, 45 and 56 kW respectively. Tipping
loads range from 2.95 to 3.75 tonnes at
full articulation, with dump heights from
3.25 to 3.45 m (10.6 to 11.3 ft). The
4,8 tonne W50TC has a travel speed
of 20 km/h, while the other models, which
weigh 5.1, 5.6 and 5.9 tonnes, can reach
35 km/h

narrowed to get it through tight spaces, and
expanded again for more stability when digging.
But what makes Bobcats machine different is
this is a standard feature on the 319 while,
according to the company, all other suppliers in
Europe only offer it as an option.
Bobcat has also introduced a new hydraulic
breaker, the HB380, which is suitable for
excavators up to 1.7 tonnes like the 319.
The unit is supplied to Bobcat by Ingersoll
Rand sister company Montabert, and is part
of its Silver Clip range of tools for breaking,
excavating and compaction.
Yuasa Trading will be showing a range of
equipment from Yamaguchi (mini dumpers),
Morooka (dumpers), Hanta (mini-pavers),
Baroness (hammer knife mowers) and Airman
(mini excavator). While not all the machines
are new in the strictest sense of the word,
many will be seen for the first time in Europe
at Intermat.
Of the six Yamaguchi walk-behind mini
dumpers at the show, the WB06D and the
Mecalacs 8 MCR may look like a 6
tonne excavator, but the companys boom
design means it can also be used as a loader
introduced 400 series skid
steer loaders, the Super R
Series 2 backhoes and the 10
model TX range of telehandlers.
There will be two new zero tail-swing mini
excavators in the 4 to 5 tonne segment from
JCB, the 8040 ZTS and 8045 ZTS. These have
a large cab, fitted with a fully suspended seat
as standard. Controls are mounted to the seat,
and the whole assemble can be adjusted for
maximum comfort and visibility. The machines
also have an automatic idle system, which
drops the engine revs after four seconds
without activity to save on fuel costs.
Doosan Infracore will launch its first zero tail
swing mini excavator, the 3.65 tonne DX35Z,
with other zero tails-wing models to follow.
Also in the compact equipment category,
the company is adding to its skid-steer
loader range with the launch of the 1,134 kg
(24950 lb) capacity 470 Plus model.
Intermat will see Mecalac branch-out further
into the midi excavator market with the launch
of its 6 tonne 8 MCR crawler machine. Being a
Mecalac, there is of course more to the machine
than just its digging power. The companys
unique boom design means the excavator can
also be used as a loader. A front facing bucket
can be attached via the 1quick coupler, and
this can be filled from a stockpile, lifted, and
discharged at height. This 2 in 1 machine
has a hydrostatic drive system, which delivers
travel speeds up to 11 km/h.
Mecalacs German subsidiary, Ahlmann
will be presenting an enhancement to its
AS 90 tele a wheeled loader with a swivelling,
telescopic front end. The
machine is now available with
an overload alarm and load
indicator, similar in style to those
used in cranes.
Hyundai is filling a gap in its
smaller excavator range with the
introduction of the 8 tonne R80-7
midi excavator. The company says
the 45.5 kW Yanmar engine makes
this the most powerful machine in

dimensions, the excavator
has a 1 m (3.3 ft) wide

The Mooroka tracked dump trucks at Intermat
will comprise the 4.3 tonne capacity MST800VD,
6.3 tonne MST1500VD, along with the
2.5 tonne 180 swivel tipping MST300VDR. The
Airman AX-3 mini excavator series consists of
seven models from 1.6 to 4.2 tonnes operating
weight, while the AXU-4 short tail-swing models
range from 3 to 4.8 tonnes.
Telehandlers
Kramer has added telescopic handlers to its
portfolio, thanks to a partnership with Claas.
The range will eventually range from 6 to
17 m (19.7 to 55.8 ft), but the first two models
available are 6 and 7 m (19.7 and 23 ft) lift
height machines.
JLG will show a special compact version of
its 266 model, called the Lo-Pro 266. This will
be under 2 m high, compared to the 2.2 m
height of the standard model.
Manitou will unveil its new MRT 3050,
which the company claims is the tallest rotating
telescopic platform and will be commercially
available from the end of this year. The new
machine offers all terrain performance as well
as lift heights of up to 30 m (98 ft) and is
capable of carrying loads of up to 5 tonnes
using a fork attachment.
Manitous Twisco range has been improved
and the SLT 415B has been replaced by the
SLT 420 B which has a lifting capacity of
2 tonnes to a height of 4 m (13.2 ft) instead
of the previous 1.5 tonne operating limit but
still retains a compact design. Manitou has
achieved the capacity increase by adding a
rear counterweight, fitting a new Perkins engine
with 25% more power and increasing the
hydraulic capacity of the forks.
An upgraded version of the Buggiscopic
telehandler will also be on display for the
first time and will be named the Buggiscopic
Evolution. The revised machine features a
new drive train, a new more ergonomically
designed control lever and a new 51 hp
(38 kW) Perkins engine that offers 25%
more power.

New to the crushing and screening market
is Sandviks CM4800i, the second unit in
its intelligent range of Crawlmaster mobile
crushers. This secondary unit features a
high capacity H4800 Hydrocone cone crusher,
augmented by the companys intelligent control
system, which monitors operating parameters
and the flow of material through the machine
to ensure maximum productivity.
As far as wear protection is concerned,
the company will be exhibiting a new modular
system made out of dual harness rubber,
alongside a telescopic chute.
Extec will be debuting a new product
at this years Intermat which the company
claims will revolutionise the industry but full

feed width of 1.3 m (4.3 ft) and a throughput
in excess of 350 tonnes/hr, the unit can be
used for applications crushing natural stone
as well as for recycling.
Two new ranges of secondary impact
crushers will be on the Krupp Hazemag stand
in the shape of the Allpactor APK and APKna..
The new, patent pending units feature a number
of innovations, including standardised crusher
bodies that allow a wide range of materials to
be processed. Safety concerns have also been
addressed, with most adjustments being carried
out from the side, thereby avoiding the need
for the operator to work on the top of the
machine. Krupp Hazemag provides crushing
installations for the treatment and handling
of materials in a wide range of applications,
including quarries, sand pits, cement factories
and recycling.
OM will be presenting its new Screen Gigante:
a tracked mobile screen, which complements
the OM Screen range. This machine is ideal

Academy programme
The Automotive Academy is to
launch a new Re-employment Training
Programme, aimed at those made
redundant from MG Rover, its supply
chain and also Peugeot during 2005.
Up to 100 candidates will participate
in a pilot programme funded by the
Learning and Skills Council.
OBE awarded
Robert Higgs, chief executive of the
Heating and Ventilating Contractors
Association (HVCA) has been awarded
the OBE in the New Year Honours List,
in recognition of his services to the
environment. Robert Higgs has been a
member of the staff of HVCA for 32
years, and was appointed its director
in July 1989. In recent years he has
devoted significant effort to shaping and
influencing UK policy on the key issues
of sustainability and climate change.
Pay settlements static
The latest manufacturing pay
settlements remained at the level
at which they have been for the last
3 months of 2005, according to the
latest information from EEF, the
manufacturers organisation.
The average level of settlements for
the 3 months to the end of December
was 2.9%, the same level as the revised
figures for the 3 months to the end of
both October and November.
Manufacturer fined
Great Yarmouth based company,
Omni-Pac (UK) Ltd, was fined a total of
50,000 and ordered to pay prosecution
costs of 86,000 at Norwich Crown
Court, after pleading guilty to breaching
health and safety law. This criminal case
follows an investigation by HSE into
the condition of asbestos containing
materials (ACMs) at the firms site in
South Denes Road in October 2003.
THE UKS LONGEST ESTABLISHED MONTHLY MAGAZINE FOR PLANT, WORKS AND MAINTENANCE ENGINEERS
Chris Hunt, director general of
UKPIA commented: The scale of
the incident at Buncefield terminal
was unprecedented in the UK.
The downstream oil refining and
marketing industry in the UK
has a good safety record. It has
proportionately fewer injuries than
the UK manufacturing sector as a
whole.
Because of the potential risks
associated with petroleum products,
risk assessment and safe practices
are paramount in the manufacture,
distribution and use of these
products.
UKPIA has said that its member
companies all have well developed
health and safety policies and
procedures, which the organisation
says are constantly under review
in the light of new technology,
operational experience and the
sharing of best practice, both within
the industry and with regulatory
organisations.
Refineries and distribution
terminals work to a number of oil
industry codes of practice, both
international and UK, covering all
aspects of the design, construction
and operation of installations.
These include codes published by
the Energy Institute.
The main process safety regulation
of refineries in the UK and larger
terminals like Buncefield, is the
Control of Major Accident Hazards
(COMAH) Regulations, which
categorises these installations as
With the Buncefield explosion investigation apparently in full swing

incident (believed to be the biggest explosion in Europe in 50 years)
has focused attention on the safety and operating procedures at UK
refineries and oil storage terminals.
www.khl.com/pwe top tier sites. These regulations
require all such sites to have a
major accident prevention plan
and, in addition, top tier sites must
produce a safety report to show
that risks have been systematically
reviewed and controlled, and
necessary measures taken.
At a routine meeting at Dacorum
Borough Council recently, the
Buncefield Investigation Manager,
Taf Powell, explained: In terms of
early indications, as you know there
has been press speculation about
the possibility of a vapour cloud
enveloping the site and initiating
the explosion. We are pursuing this
line of inquiry though there are
others that we cannot yet discount
with certainty.
It is our intention that the
investigation will be carried out in a
transparent way and will liase closely

structure (columns, floors and
walls) into pieces, which were
then lifted out by crane and
then lowered to the ground.
Work from the 32nd floor
down to the technical level on
the 17th floor was carried out
rapidly. Once this floor was
reached, the Brokks were
fitted with buckets and used to clear the floor
of demolition debris from the floors above.
The Brokks then switched back to hammers
to continue their demolition work down to the
second technical level at the 3rd floor, where
once again rubble was cleared and then the
remains of the building finally brought down.
The Brokks proved so efficient that by July
2005, two thirds of the building had been
removed. Demolition activities finally ceased
in November, three months ahead of the initial
schedule. This proved a major benefit, as the
large safety zone that had to be established
around the gutted tower seriously disrupted
business activities in the adjacent commercial
district.
All in all, the Brokks proved an ideal
solution in this highly challenging application.
Madrids eighth tallest tower block, which had
been a feature of the citys skyline since 1979,
had disappeared from view in as little as
eight months.

was brought on site
by the Madrid local authorities to carry out this work and made
considerable use of remote control demolition techniques to
maximise worker safety
W
hen Ortiz came on site, demolition of the
badly damaged tower was expected
to take 11-12 months, with major
challenges to be overcome, including space
constraints and the risk of partial collapse.
The first job was the clearance of concrete
and metal that made the structure unstable.
This was carried out by sub-contractors
Hidrodem, using hydro-demolition techniques,
and Perfox, using oxyfuel cutting. Once this
had been completed by February 22, the Brokk
equipment could make its entry.
The radio control capability was a crucial
factor where worker safety on the tower was
concerned. The machines did perhaps have
to be lifted into confined, and often unstable
positions, but their operators were able to
find a safe position from which to control the
machines. The light weight of the Brokks was
also a major advantage given the generally
weakened condition of the structure.
Normally, five machines were used to bring
the building down from the top, although an
additional two units were on-site at specific
stages of the job. Fitted with Atlas Copco
hammers, the machines were
used to cut the concrete

hroughout Europe there are many
buildings that were speedily erected
during the first half of the last
century to meet the demand for housing,
commercial and industrial needs. Many
of these hastily erected building had a
design life of just 20 to 30 years, although many
remain standing today - almost 100 years on.
Major cities are now demolishing many of
these, as city centres are redeveloped and
regenerated. Although conservation measures
are taken, many old buildings are not suitable for
conversion to meet modern day requirements.
Spain is no exception and there are
redevelopment and regeneration schemes
to be found everywhere. Such is the demand
in some areas that specialist contractors
have successfully established themselves
companies such as B. Biosca, in the northern
Spanish city of Lerida.
Biosca, although involved in other activities,
is very focused on demolition works within a 150

this particular model was the versatility that
his company needs for the various demolition
projects in the region.
He went on to say that most inner-city
demolition projects, within the area his
company covers, are only 5 or 6 storeys high
and typically are steel frame with brick infill.
Although demolishing structures of this type of
structure does not demand extremely heavy-
duty equipment, they do require equipment
that is easy to control and adaptable to different
duties.
In many instances, the building being
demolished is tied into the buildings on either
side. It is not unusual for one or both of the
buildings to have some historic value and
so have to be protected from any potential
damage, requiring a highly skilled operator and
an easily controlled machine.
The Case CX330 demolition unit is based
on the CX330 tracked excavator, which has an
operating weight of 34,000 kg (74,800 lb) plus
2,000 kg (4,400 lb) additional counterweight for
demolition usage. The engine is rated at 185 kW.
With the additional hydraulic power necessary to
meet the demolition tool requirement, the model
is proving an economical solution as it can be
quickly converted back to standard excavation
mode for clearing and excavating foundations
on the building has been demolished.
The machine is used with a 2 m (6.6 ft) long
NPK crushing shears and, to provide protection
from falling debris, the base machine features
side protection and steel plate reinforcing
underneath the chassis. The cab is also heavily
reinforced and tilts back to give the operator
perfect visibility of the cutter head.

Underwater Demolition
Normally demolition is above ground, however on the Island of Majorca, Seprosub, a
specialist marine contractor, is using a Case 210 long reach excavator with a 13 m (42.5
ft) boom and a special milling head to demolish and cut through underwater concrete
slabs for trenching purposes. The machine is currently working, together with a team of
scuba divers, on a project to smooth the harbour floor to build a new sea wall at the port
of Alcudia, on the northeast coast. Again, the contractor selected the Case 210 because
he needed a machine that could be easily configured for different applications. Apart
from being used for underwater demolition, the 22.4 tonne machine is also used with a
clamshell and bucket - the clamshell can be used for depths of up to 12 m (36.5 ft).
After completing the first section of the
current project, the machine will be mounted
onto a small ship from where it will excavate
over 6,000 m of sand and silt at Palma
Harbour, on the opposite side of the island.

From industrial
to residential
A New Holland branded
Kobelco high reach demolition
excavator has been at work
at a former industrial site in
the Bavarian town of Neuberg,
Germany. D&Ri reports
that it had to rent high reach equipment that
could cope with the silos.
Rental operation Freimuth of Bulkau had just
purchased two New Holland units an E485
with a working height of 25 m (82 ft) and a E385
with a 20 m (65.6 ft) reach. The silo job required
the services of the E485 to reach the top of the
structures.
The machine was transported to the site on a
trailer specially designed by Belgian company
Faymanville that allows the whole machine to be
moved as one, with the boom stretching 19 m
(62 ft) when folded in transport position. Once
it reached the site, it was a very quick job to
make the machine ready to start work, with only
the removal of an integrated securing rod that
protects the cylinders being required.
The 54.4 tonne E485, fitted with a 2 tonne
VTC 30 crusher, then began the demolition
of the silo. By the end of the first day, the
roof construction and large parts of the main
walls of the silo had been dismantled the
most difficult part of the job. Using such
equipment requires a confident and competent
operator. According to Freimuths Dieter
Urbahn, who used the machine on the job,
The excavator has sufficient hydraulic power
to crack thick walls, controllability is excellent
and because of the stability the machine
provides, you always feel safe, even when
working at full height.
The E486s 9.8 litre Isusu turbocharged
diesel delivers 340 hp (255 kW) and Kobelcos
Smart Hydraulik System (SHS) provides a
hydraulic flow of 2 x 370 litre/min to ensure
efficient attachment power. Stability is
provided by the machines 3.5 m (11.5 ft) wide
undercarriage, which adjusts to 3 m (9.8 ft) to
facilitate transport. The standard high reach
E485 specification includes FOPS cab guard,
protected hydraulic hoses and cylinders, a
reinforced roof window with washer/wiper and
central lubrication on the attachment.
Another feature of the machine is the tool
position display in the cab. Three sensors
continuously monitor the tool and calculate its
position, feeding the resulting data back to the
display. When the attachment leaves the safe
working envelope, and optical warning appears
on the display and an audible warning sounds
to alert the operator.
The E485 is available with other optional
equipment, including a monoboom digging
attachment that can be fitted to the coupler.
A 30 tilting cab is also available to provide

decided to turn a former industrial complex,
located alongside the Donau river, into a
residential zone. The industries previously
occupying the site had moved into newly
constructed commercial areas outside the city
centre, leaving the old site unoccupied.
As part of this work, the demolition of old

new engine enhances productivity
because of its 10 % greater power
than its predecessor and a 7%
improvement in fuel economy.
Link-Belt has also installed
auxiliary piping brackets as
standard to allow users to install
additional after-market hydraulic

leave as much as 10 cm (4 in) that
require manual removal.
A stronger construction holds
the head more securely when
indexing up to 6 m (19.7 ft) free-

stable operation and to eliminate
any flexing and movement. In
addition, a stronger dual drive
system offers increased hoist

for the 12th annual
German Demolition
Conference. LINDSAY

the first time
R
unning over the 3rd and 4th March, the
annual German Demolition Conference
attracted an audience of 360 delegates
to hear a wide range of presentations covering
the demolition industry. In a packed first
day programme, 18 papers were presented,
covering topics as diverse as insurance
requirements, hazardous substances, health
and safety at work, explosive demolition
through to site reports on specific projects.
The proceedings were opened by Dr-Ing
Dietrich Korth, the organiser of the event,
who indicated the themes of the event
first, improving safety and protecting the environment
and second, technical and economic developments.
As has become traditional, next to speak was
the current president of the German Demolition
Association (Deutschen Abbrushverbandes e.V), and
this year it was Dr.-Ing Helmut Roller. He outlined the
current activities of the association,
whi ch from an outsi ders
perspective appears strong, with
46 new members joining last year.
The associations 2006 annual
congress will be held in Leipzig
on 22-24 September 2006. D&Ri
hopes to attend this event and
will report on happenings in the
November-December issue.
Then it was into the technical
papers, which proved more of
a challenge for the four English-
only speakers present (all UK
residents, naturally). I would like
to thank Walther Werner for his
informal translation efforts that
allowed us to grasp the nature
of subject matter being presented
by the various speakers. In fact,
this year was the first time that
delegates attended from the UK,
but perhaps next year may see a
greater number, which also may justify professional
English parallel translation services being provided.
Of particular note was the paper presented by
Dipl.-Ing Axel Steinhauser from Specht, Kalleja and
Partner GmbH. He described the particular challenges
that were encountered in planning the demolition of the
former East German parliament building, the Palace
of the Republic. Because of Berlins high water table,
and the close proximity of other
buildings, special techniques have
had to be devised to maintain the
weight loading on the buildings
foundations during demolition work.
A water/sand slurry will be pumped
into the concrete foundation tub
as work progresses, with the
water gradually being removed. A
novel technique will also be used
to remove demolition debris off-
site a loading wharf behind the
building on the River Spree will
see this material being loaded
onto barges and then transported
out of the city centre, minimising
traffic impact,
Finally, a table top exhibition, with 40 companies
taking part, was open over the course of the first day,
with a wide range of equipment and accessories on
show to the delegates during breaks in the technical
sessions.
All in all, a very informative, enjoyable experience,
and I one I hope to repeat next year.

topics as its theme sustainability

Opened by IDE president
John J Law, the events official
programme officially consisted
of six papers (but ended up as
seven) covering varying aspects of
sustainability that certainly provided
food for thought for the audience.
Martin Hampshire from the
Licensing and Enforcement Unit of
the UKs Department kicked of the
event for Environment, Food and
Rural Affairs (DEFRA). He outlined
the scale and problems caused
by illegal dumping or fly-tipping
of waste, of which C&D waste
accounts for 16 % of incidents
reported to reporting mechanism
Flycapture and 30 % of incidents
dealt with the Environment Agency.
He then outlined the regulations
currently in place to deal with
the problem and the plans for
further measures, which largely
centre around the establishment
of site waste management plans.
The regulations establishing the
requirement to develop such plans
is likely to come into force in 2007,
with various discussions ongoing
over the course of this year to
develop SWMP requirements, along
with Duty of Care regulations and
stop, search and seizure powers.
A lively Q/A session resulted.
He was followed by a
presentation by the UKs Nuclear
Decommissioning Agency, made
by Martin Robb. All of the UKs
current nuclear power stations are
reaching the end of their life and
are due for decommissioning. The
NDA aims to have all 11 Magnox
reactors demolished and their sites
cleared for alternative use within the
next 25 years. This offers obvious
opportunities for the demolition
industry. Mr Robb outlined how
the NDA plans to administer this
work through a number of site
licensees, management contractors
and subcontractors. He then went
on to deal with the sustainability
issues involved.

the first of which was unscheduled.
Made by Denise Clarke, Special
Advisor to the Standards Setting
Body for Explosives, Munitions &
Search Occupations, this brought
to the attention of the audience
the work that has been done in
the UK to establish standards
and criteria of competence in the
handling of explosive substances.
The establishment of these for the
use of explosives in demolition has
yet to be done, so she set out
the current situation and the plans
to develop standards for the areas
yet to be covered by soliciting
input from interested parties in the
industry.
She was followed by Mark
Hatt, who discussed the aims
and work undertaken by the
European Federation of Explosives
Engineers, and the progress it has
made in developing a European
Shotfiring Certificate.
The highlight of the event,
at least for your editor, was the
first afternoon paper presented
by industry consultant Terry
Quarmby, who looked at how the
industry and technology will have
to develop to take account of
sustainable issues in terms of
equipment and techniques.
In essence, his paper can
be summarised as follows: we
have spent the last 20 years
developing demolition equipment
that takes the man out of the
building sustainability will
put the man back into the
building. Accident statistics in the
industry have been rising since the
late 1990s and the question is
whether this can be ascribed to a
sustainability effect? He believes
that the equipment used will
change over the next 20 years as
dramatically as it has over the last
20, since todays equipment will
not allow the levels of recycling
being demanded by the legislators
to be achieved. New technologies
will increasingly be a feature of the
demolition industry with high tech
solutions and robotics probably
being part of this. D&Ri plans to
report more fully in the forthcoming
May-June issue.
He was followed by
Julian Cope, materials
pr oj ect manager
plasterboard, from
the UKs Waste
Resources Acti on
Programme (WRAP),
who provided an overview of the
programmes current activities and
an outline of the new structure
the organisation has put in place
in increase its impact, face
more directly specific industry
sectors, increase coordination and
integration and establish fewer but
larger targets in its business plan.
He then went on discuss the
activities this UK NGO is currently
carrying out with respect to the
recycling of plasterboard. Various
trials are being put in place to
determine how best to handle
this type of waste material and to
develop end uses. D&Ri plans to
visit one such site that is handling
demolition waste of this type later in
the year to report on progress. Of
particular note is the development
work currently being carried out
on a portable plasterboard crusher
that can be used on site to turn
waste plasterboard panels into a
more easily handled form.
The final presentation was
made by Brian Neale and covered
the current situation with regard
to the Bristish Standard covering
demolition, BS 6187 2000, which
is currently going through the five
year review process that the British
Standards Institute conducts on
every standard. Comments from
interested parties concerning the
standard have been solicited but it
appears that everybody is currently
happy with the its coverage, since
minimal feedback has resulted,
and the standard is likely to be
confirmed until the next five year
review in 2010.
All in all, this IDE event left
attendees with plenty of food
for thought, as well as offering
more than a few editorial
possibilities for this magazine. It
certainly was well worth the day
out of the office. d&ri
association news
Denise Clarke asked for
input from the industry
in the development of
standards and criteria
of compentence for UK
explosives operatives
Explosives and the current
European Shotfiring Certificate
was also the topic for Mike Hatt
As is the case
in most events of this type,
the IDE seminar offered an
ideal networking opportunity for
delegates
One highlight of the presentations was a
discussion of the future of the industry by
consultant Terry Quarmby
Julian Cope, presented a background to
WRAP and its recycling efforts along with
his particular area of activity recycling

With BS 6187 2000
currently under review,
Brian Neale outlined
the current situation
and discussed the
current options
