Sep 3, 2024 · Initially, a site 23 miles of north of Benkelman was chosen and given initial approval as the location for the feedlot two years ago. But opposition to that site over concerns about groundwater quality and quantity prompted a move to a location about seven miles north of Haigler, along the Colorado state line, a site with fewer nearby residents.
Jul 14, 2022 · Blackshirt Feeders, headed by Eric Behlke, a Canadian veterinarian who grew up in Benkelman, is now eyeing a location north of Haigler, Nebraska, near the Colorado border. The proposed feedlot would eventually feed 150,000 head of cattle at a time, which is 50,000 head larger than planned at a feedlot site 23 miles north of Benkelman that was approved by the county for Blackshirt Feeders in June.

The Benkelman Beam (Figure 2), developed at the Western Association of State Highway Organizations (WASHO) Road Test in 1952, is a simple device that operates on the lever arm principle. The Benkelman Beam is used with a loaded truck – typically 80 kN (18,000 lb) on a single axle with dual tires inflated to 480 to 550 kPa (70 to 80 psi). Measuremen...
Steady state deflection equipment measure the dynamic deflection of a pavement produced by an oscillating load. These devices consist of a dynamic force generator (that produces the oscillating load), a motion measuring instrument (to measure the oscillating load), a calibration unit and several deflection measuring devices (transducers, accelerome...
All impact load devices deliver a transient impulse load to the pavement surface. The subsequent pavement response (deflection basin) is measured by a series of sensors. The most common type of equipment is the falling weight deflectometer (FWD) (Figures 9 through 26). The FWD can either be mounted in a vehicle or on a trailer and is equipped with ...
In general, correlations between deflection devices should be used with caution. Too often, a correlation is developed for a specific set of conditions that may not be present for those using the correlation. It appears that the best approach is to obtain pavement parameters (such as layer moduli) from the specific device being used. However, that ...
Comparing a Benkelman Beam load at 9,000 pounds on dual tires with 70-80 psi inflated tires and Road Rater at 8,000 pound peak-to-peak load at 15 Hz on a 12 inch diameter plate on a stabilized pavement: The Western Direct Federal Division, Federal Highway Administration, Vancouver, Washington provides the following correlation for the Benkelman Bea...
