Hi guys I’m going to attend Stevens Institute of Tech for a Masters in Construction Mgmt this summer and I really desire real life experience in the field. I’m absolutely passionate about construction and I’m certain this is where I will focus my energy and training at. All my professional experience thus far is in accounting, albeit with experience in real estate and development/construction industries. Can someone advise me on how can I break into the project management, field ops side and what size of GC firms should I target? I really like mega projects but fear I can’t get an internship or interview chance at the big construction firms. Would cold emails to recruiters work or target cold email alumni? Suppose I take on a project coordinator role, can that lead to APM or A.Super role?

Hitachi ’s ZW550-6 wheel loader is designed for the heaviest applications, including tough rock and high volumes of dirt, the company says. The 104,000-pound loader runs on a 512-horsepower Isuzu engine that meets Tier 4 Final emissions requirements with no diesel particulate filter, instead using selective catalytic reduction with a simple diesel exhaust fluid system, according to Hitachi. The SCR system does not require high engine temperatures, and it reduces fuel consumption. The SCR’s design also opens more space in the engine compartment for service access. Operators can further save on fuel with auto-shutdown and the lock-up transmission. For additional power, the ZW550-6 has a new Power Mode that with the flip of the switch on the steering joystick boosts engine rpms by 10 percent. The feature comes in handy when needing extra rim-pull and breakout force for digging in heavy piles. It also gives extra power for climbing steep grades with a full load, faster bucket lifts and ...

Vögele Super 3000-3(i) At the big Bauma construction machinery show in Germany , Vögele unveiled its biggest yet asphalt paver. The company’s flagship Vögele Super 3000-3(i) can pave widths up to 18 meters (59 feet), the equivalent of a four-lane highway without joints when used with the company’s SB 350 fixed-width screed. To pave this wide, the Super 3000-3(i) lays down up to 1,800 tons of mix per hour. An innovative material transport system allows the height of the rear section of the chassis, the conveyor and the auger to be adjusted with the push of a button to get the mix feed coming down on the augers from above resulting an optimum head of mix in front of the screed. As part of Vögele’s Premium line of pavers, the Super 3000-3(i) offers the company’s ErgoPlus 3 operating concept with automated features and enhanced convenience. Paving job parameters can be saved and retrieved at any time using the AutoSet Plus function for easy repeatability from day to day and job to jo...

Mold and mildew are types of fungus that thrive in moist, warm areas both inside and outside your home. Although most of these annoying fungi aren’t directly harmful to humans, mold allergies are fairly common. Those afflicted tend to suffer with headaches, runny or stuffy nose, wheezing or coughing, itchy eyes, and even skin rashes when exposed to large colonies of mold. Some types of mold—black mold (Stachybotrys chartarum) in particular—can trigger asthma and serious lung conditions. But health consequences aside, mold and mildew are undesirable visitors to your home. They create discolored blotches on walls, floors, and ceilings, and can damage wallpaper, carpet, drywall, and insulation. And, of course, the musty smell of mold or mildew is far from the fresh, clean fragrance most people want in their homes. Because mold spores are almost everywhere in the environment and multiply very quickly when conditions suit them, it’s important to make your home as inhospitable as possible to...

Roadtec’s updated RX-700e Astec Industries, parent company of Roadtec and Carlson Paving , attributed disappointing first-quarter financial results to hazardous weather that slammed large sections of the country in March. Floods, ice storms and heavy snow not only led to a 2.7 percent drop in domestic sales for the quarter over 1Q 2018, but also meant lost time in production at some of the company’s manufacturing plants that had to close for several days, according to company officials. Overall, the company posted sales of $325.8 million, up 0.1 percent compared to the first quarter of 2018. Earnings were down 30 percent, from $20.3 million to $14.3 million. “March is typically a strong month, but that was not the case this year,” said Steve Anderson, vice president of investor relations, during a conference call with analysists April 23 rd . “Unusually harsh weather has been a factor in the United States. A lot of the equipment that we manufacture is used in the field and can’t...

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. It will also help bring new life and investment to a site that had closed due to the 2008 recession, the company says. “We’re proud of our roots and are thrilled to be able to reinvigorate this ...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) speak to reporters after meeting with President Trump where they agreed on a $2 trillion infrastructure package. Screen shot from MSNBC video . When President Trump met with House Speaker  Nancy Pelosi  (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader  Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) on Tuesday, they agreed to go after a $2 trillion infrastructure package in spite of their differences, The Hill reports. Pelosi and Schumer described the meeting as “constructive,” and that both sides wanted an infrastructure deal that would “be big and bold,” but said there was no agreement on how to pay for it. “There was goodwill in this meeting, and that was different than some of the other meetings that we’ve had, which is a very good thing,” Schumer told reporters after the meeting, according to the news agency. However, Congressional Republicans say they are unlikely to support a $2 trillion infrastructure pa...
