KENCO
The Kenco Barrier Lift can be used on any concrete median barriers, sound walls, curbing, or piling. It is also great for aligning barriers that have already been placed and can be ready for operation by simply using a lifting sling such as the Kenco RigMAX, attached to any type or model of machine with lifting capabilities. Elastomer pads provide superior performance even in wet weather. All models are available with optional self-aligning guides. The guides extend down from one set of the pads to allow the lifter to align itself with the barrier wall whenever the lifter is lowered into position. This optional feature can also be purchased separately to attach to earlier models of the Kenco barrier lift. Lifting capacities are available from 1,500 to 30,000 pounds. Kenco furnishes attachments for excavators from mini to 200,000 pounds, wheel loaders from 1 to 40 yards, dozers, and skid-steer machines.

CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT WRITER
Construction Contract Writer is a Generation III contract-authoring program. For 100 years, architectural and engineering associations have offered contracts on paper. That was Generation I. None of these contracts were written to protect contractors, and it isn’t easy to make changes in a printed form. Generation II was contracts on disk. Changes were possible. But there was no way to adjust contract bias. Construction Contract Writer is the first Generation III application. Users adjust contract bias to fit the job. A bias indicator shows which way the contract is leaning and by how much. Construction Contract Writer uses a question-and-answer interview model, walking users through a comprehensive checklist of contract topics. Length and depth of the interview adjusts with user responses.

TOWMASTER
Towmaster’s T-40 with Double-Break beavertail option makes loading and unloading heavy equipment easier. The T-40 trailer features a 20-foot flat deck, a high-tensile steel wide-flange frame, a formed tongue, a locking tool tray, hub-piloted budd wheels, a Hutch 9700 adjustable suspension, a 25K two-speed jack, an adjustable pintle hitch ring, and LED lights.
