Construction

Our industry

The things we produce

Structures for:• Buildings• Bridges• Power stations• Petrochemical plant• Mining industry• Roads• Railways• Community buildings

WHAT DISTINGUISHES US FROM OTHER INDUSTRIES• We don’t make widgets

• We participate in construction projects• Structures are designed by engineers,

architects and others• Each structure (and virtually each element of

each structure) is unique• Projects typically large, take a long time• Relatively small capital investment to create

one job

WHAT DISTINGUISHES US FROM REST OF

CONSTRUCTION SECTOR• Elements made in workshop,

assembled on site

• Safer, healthier, better trained and better paid jobs

• Computers play a bigger role in our lives (more knowledge intensive)

WHAT MAKES THE INDUSTRY IMPORTANT

• 40% of all steel used in construction• About 2 m tons per year• 80 000 people employed • Key enabling industry: have to have

structure in place before machines can be places etc - without structural steel industry, can’t have other industries

• Green: social, economic, environment

World class industry

• Materials control systems

• Engineering and draughting

• Health, safety and the environment

• Quality assurance

• Competitive

• Past 3 years – huge investment in new equipment, software, training

An industry looking forward

SAISC Activities

• Technical: Handbooks, SABS standards, advice

• Education and training• Industry improvement• Interact with decision makers in

government and private sector• Promote the use of steel (market

development)• Defend home market

SAISC Export promotion(“International Steel Fabricators” – ISF)

• Promote image of SA industry in target markets

• Pursue projects in other countries – mobilise SA companies

• Surveillance of world and regional trends and opportunities

• Interact with government

Structural Steel Exports pa (t)

HS Code 7308 ITAC statistics

Steel Construction Industry and IPAP

• NIPF (National Industrial Policy Framework)

Launched Jan ’07 (Min. Mandisi Mpahlwa)Four lead sectors:

• Capital & transport goods & metal fabrication

• Automotive & components

• Chemicals, plastics & Pharmaceuticals

• Forestry, pulp & paper

• NIPP (Offset commitments) vs CSDP

“Competitive Supplier Development Program”

Competitive Supplier Development Program

• NICHES (CENTRES OF EXCELLENCE):• Structural Steel industry !• - Creating capacity, investments…• - World class production, quality, safety..• - Export capability…and results• - Creating jobs:75 per 1000t/a capacity• - Training, upskilling, research & dev., • - Sustainability…GREEN!• - BBBEE: Construction Charter….

SAISC CSDP Participation• DTI SDP program – became CSDP• PBMR – Deferred, ongoing preparations• NIASA – Delayed, ongoing preparations• ESKOM• - Power station steelwork• - Power line industry• - Project labour agreements (PLA’s)• TRANSNET CSDP• UNIDO SPX Centre – Profiling• - Benchmarking

ESKOM CSDP Progress

• - Structural steel fabrication capacity

• - Substantial new capital investments

• - Best practice world wide studied

• - Most modern facilities world wide

• - Technical input: steel grades & sizes

• - Move from 40% ex Chinese to 100% RSA supply, fabricate & construct

ESKOM CSDP PROGRESS

• STEINMULLER : Boiler capacity

• Pipe bending

• DB THERMAL : New Nigel facility

• HITACHI : Various

• ALSTOM : Various

DTI INCENTIVES

• Not only financial !!• Must not result in “crutch” industries• Must align with other initiatives – eg SETAS,

ASGISA, BBBEE, etc. , etc.• Must build capacity: knowledge economy• EIP (Enterprise Investment Program) 2008 • New ideas being requested / investigated

• POWER LINES• HARBOUR CRANES• SASOL• PETROSA• PBMR• NIASA

THANK YOU !

MAKE THE SAISC

AND THE

STEEL CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY

WORK FOR YOU

“We speak fluent steel”
