Pit & Quarry’s February 2021 digital edition is now available, with this month’s cover story putting the spotlight on software, telematics and automation.
In our cover story, BARD Materials – a producer headquartered in Iowa – shares how it traded in its spreadsheets for a sophisticated production tracking and analysis system. Assistant aggregate production director Alex Gribben takes you inside the company, detailing how BARD’s new system is transforming the way it does business at multiple sites.
Also this month, P&Q takes you inside South Carolina’s Oconee County Quarry, which shares how a new excavator is proving its worth in feeding the operation’s jaw crushing plant. Additionally, our February tech coverage digs into hauling, tires, scales and weighing, and washing and classifying equipment.
P&Q’s Road to Recovery series continues this month, as well, featuring the latest Aggregate Forecast from contributor David Chereb. And on the safety front, Ogletree Deakins’ Bill Doran and Margo Lopez detail what producers can expect going forward with the Mine Safety & Health Administration’s informal conference process.
