Since 1949, Construction Equipment has been the magazine for ideas and insight for equipment professionals and is the most authoritative national equipment publication in the industry

Construction Equipment


Since 1949, Construction Equipment has provided cost-effective, pertinent information and ideas for managing equipment. This includes, but is not limited to: information on product development; product technology and machine acquisition, disposal, and maintenance.

Construction Equipment serves the people who acquire and manage heavy equipment, trucks and related products/services in North America. We provide meaningful information beyond those borders with ConstructionEquipment.com and our various social media platforms. Our readers and website visitors work in a diverse cross section of industries and hold various titles, but they have in common the equipment itself—and the constant need to acquire and manage it safely and cost-effectively.

Our management team is headed by Rick Blesi, VP and publisher, and Rod Sutton, editorial director. Our editorial staff is second to none, with industry veterans Walt Moore, editor, and Frank Raczon, senior editor, on staff. Noted contributors include Mike Vorster, professor emeritus, Virginia Tech, and a leading consultant on fleet-management issues; Andy Agoos, adjunct professor at the University of Central Florida with more than 45 years experience in equipment, service and maintenance of heavy construction fleets; truck expert Tom Berg; and Pat Crail, CEM, equipment manager for John R.
