Best practices: Night shift and life cycle

Over the next few weeks (and indefinitely I should say) I’ll be covering night shift at my project. I had to do this for couple months last year and realized that it messed up my diet and workout pretty bad, main reason is because I did not have a consistent schedule of sleep, meals, etc.
I was wondering if one of you construction junkies who has a lot of time on nights had something figured out that works well for them and can pass an advise to a fellow constructor. 1- Night shift 9PM-4AM 2- I like to be on site 30~45 min earlier to go over work and safety plans with the guys. 3- I live about 20 min from site 4- I still need to swing by the job during the day to work on admin related things and communicate with the day folks. In your experience, when is the best time to get 6 hrs of sleep? Right after the shift ends or work through the morning hours and workout and go to bed at noon? And when do you think is the best time for a main meal? Sorry for the long post, but I am in bed unsuccessfully trying to get some sleep

PHOTOS: The Equipment and Crowds of Bauma 2019 (Part 2)

More than any other trade show on the planet, Bauma, hosted every three years in Munich, Germany, is a walking show. After spending nearly a whole week at this year’s show, I checked my Apple Watch activity stats and found that I averaged nearly 10 miles of walking each day at the show thanks to countless trips up and down the “expressway” that cuts through the Munich convention center’s 18-building layout and in and out of the gargantuan outdoor exhibition area. According to show managers, a record 620,000+ people from more than 200 countries visited this year’s show. Apart from the crowds this was the largest Bauma yet in sheer size with more than 3,700 exhibitors spread across 2.1 million square feet of indoor exhibit space and an additional 4.5 million square feet of outdoor space. Only slightly behind the number of steps my watch logged during the show are the number of images I grabbed with my camera with the goal of giving our readers a feeling of what being at this show is li

Deere dealer West Side Tractor plans $14M HQ in Illinois

A rendering of the future West Side Tractor headquarters in Lisle, Illinois. West Side Tractor is planning a $14 million headquarters in the same town where the family-owned company was founded in 1962. The John Deere construction and forestry equipment dealer has outgrown its 3.5-acre site in Naperville, Illinois, and is renovating two former auto dealerships on 11 acres in Lisle, where the Benck family started its business. The new site will allow the company to double its building space to 75,000 square feet over the current headquarters, once renovations are completed. Located at 3300 Ogden Avenue near Interstates 88 and 355, about 5 miles from the current site, it will not only consist of the corporate headquarters but will offer equipment sales and rentals, parts and service.
