Chairmans report
It is my privilege to succeed Molefe Kgomo as chairman of the Board. He guided the Institute through the highlights of the construction industry with the delivery of the soccer World Cup stadiums, the Gautrain project,
Charles Dednam Chairman of the Board
The South African Institute of Steel Construction provides the qualified vehicle to enhance the marketability of the South African steel construction industry throughout the continent and the staff under the leadership of Dr Hennie de Clercq demonstrated their commitment to make this the winning industry for Africa. The dedicated export drive by Neels van Niekerk, the continuous lobbying by Kobus de Beer, the technical support and education drive by Spencer Erling, the new ground breaking for light steel frame buildings by John Barnard are all testimonies of these efforts. One should not forget the exertion the institute is channelling into maintaining high standards for the industry through the development of various expert publications for steel construction under the auspices of the very same people. Last but not the least are the people providing support to the organisation, keeping everything together and making sure that our Institute performs at its best. Looking forward, exciting times await the South African Steel Construction Industry, with new markets opening up on our doorstep and the Institute is dedicated to support the industry being real contenders in the region.
the start of the building of the new power generating plants, the national
freeway improvement projects, water supply projects and the construction of the multi-product fuel pipeline. This year so far has been rather difficult as the industry is still suffering from post-World-Cup-blues. The preamble to the event demanded extraordinary performance but it was followed by a scary epilogue as the construction industry is still attempting to find the activity levels they have reached before the World Cup. So far, too little has been implemented of the announced R809 billion infrastructures spend, with State Owned Enterprises also lagging. A major concern remains capacity constraints delaying the tendering processes. This is affecting the recovery and progress within the construction sector. Inevitably the government followed up with the newly established Presidential Infrastructure Coordinating Commission, where a commitment was made to the compilation of a list prioritising economic and social projects and the establishment of public-private partnerships, which could deal with the current backlogs, owing to the limited public resources. We trust that the new emphasis will underline the importance of the promised R1-trillion five-year public investment programme and unblocking impediments to these projects in a bid to stimulate growth and encourage local supply industries to bolster employment. Africa, in particular, offers the prospect of significant growth in the mining, petro-chemical and construction industries. Activity in extended geographies outside the South African borders could just counter the negative cyclicality of the South African construction industry and indeed there are several of our construction companies reaching for these gems on the African continent.

Executive directors report
Only two things are required to make our industry successful: there must be a demand for our product, and the industry must be able to meet this demand competitively and effectively. And of course, we dont need actions
Dr Hennie de Clercq Executive Director
This means that in future we will have to work much more closely with others, with other branches of business and especially with government. The leaders of companies in our industry have to be much more involved. We have to change the way we work. This year it was again a great pleasure to work with the people one encounters at the Institute. We had two chairmen Molefe Kgomo and Charles Dednam and both were very supportive and a pleasure to work with. The Board was not only supportive, but consisted of a group of enthusiastic people who brought ideas and energy to the SAISC. Similarly, the people who served on committees or got involved in other tasks, such as commenting in detail on the connections book, were of great value to us. I wish to thank everybody who served and supported the Institute and myself during the past year. A special word of thanks to our staff, in my view the best and most dedicated group of people one could wish for.
by competitors that amount to unfair trade practices and that can upset the
argument that if you are really good and efficient clients will come flocking to you. So the Institute should be measured by the degree to which we pursued these two things that would make our industry successful. During the past year we were, as always, totally dedicated to serving the industry, and everything we did could be seen as trying to build the industrys market or making the industry better, and we also worked on defending the existing market against outsiders. But I experienced the year as slightly frustrating. The state of the world economy and other factors caused the industrys markets to be weak, intractable problems were experienced on some large projects, and the onslaught from China and other countries has become threatening, not only within the country but especially in other African countries that we have come to see as part of the home market. Up to now the Institute has, like most other associations, operated on its own without government involvement and without working closely with government, except in the field of export promotion. Our conversation with government has been on the level of lobbying: we take those things we think government can assist us with and request their assistance. We were proud of our independence and it worked. We were successful. But we have come to a situation where the forces stacked up against our industry, as against other industries in the country, are huge to the point that a single industry cannot have success on its own any more. The shortage of skills is an example of the problems facing us. Dr Hennie de Clercq Executive Director

Vision and mission
We have a vision of an Institute that is respected, productive, dynamic and exciting, and which serves all the South African people and companies providing steel-related products or services to the building and construction industry, so effectively that this industry becomes widely known as being characterised by: long term prosperity and growth as a result of pursuing the opportunities afforded by a healthy and growing demand for its products and services, the quality of its products and services, the quality and skills of its people, innovation, and the ability to compete with any of its counterparts anywhere in the world. We visualise an exceptional Institute, serving a very successful industry. The mission of the SAISC is to promote the holistic vigour and prosperity of the people and companies in South Africa that provide steel-related products or services to the building and construction industry.
Steel is used in South Africa for almost all the appropriate applications in building and construction, with the exception of multi-storey buildings and bridges
There is a constant threat of imports, especially into countries near South Africa and the rest of the continent our hinterland
Exports are of strategic importance to the industry
The SAISC has a strong brand, excellent relations with all the relevant international and local organisations, including industry associations, professional associations, educational institutions, standardisation bodies and government, causing us to be influential
The key considerations that drive our strategy are the following: We have a rejuvenated industry with a capacity in excess of the countrys needs during normal times
The staff of the SAISC harbour an exceptionally high level of technical, business and industry knowledge and maintain an extensive network of contacts to sustain the knowledge base and make it available to others.

Market development and communications
Last year we added the newsletter Steelspeak to the media we use to communicate with our members and with a broader audience. This year we went one step further: we went on Facebook. In doing so, we were one of the first associations in the country to use social media as a communications medium. The jury is still out as to the value of doing this. The audience we target is quite conservative and there has not been a flood of people to our page. We certainly reach a good bunch of people, but they are not very active participants, so its a bit of a one way street. Steelspeak has proven to be a very effective medium for getting our message to our target audience, and we regularly get requests from people who want to be

on the circulations list. Our website www.saisc.co.za is equally important and very well visited. But most effort still goes into the journal, Steel Construction. Every indication is still that the people we want to reach prefer to get their communications on paper and that they appreciate the quality and contents of the journal. In the care of Mr Viv van Zyl the advertising for the journal has increased handsomely, which also demonstrates that Steel Construction is regarded as an effective medium for reaching the steel industry and the professions. Steel Awards maintains its status as not only the Institutes prime event of the year, but also the whole South African steel industrys. We were rather concerned this year: during the past number of years the event just

seemed to grow and grow, to the extent that we had to move the Johannesburg event to a bigger venue to accommodate more of those who wanted to attend. The FIFA World Cup and the general buoyancy of the economy also assured that we had entries in the form of stadiums, airport terminals and industrial projects that blew everybodys socks away. But what would happen now that the World Cup is behind us and the economic slowdown has worked its way down to our industry? The reality proved to be a big, pleasant surprise. The overall number of people attending the concurrent functions in Durban, Johannesburg and Cape Town was slightly down on last year, primarily because experience taught us that squeezing too many people into a venue detracts from the enjoyment of those attending and makes the function less sleek, so we limited attendance in Johannesburg. The sponsorships for the function have also held up very well and we thank our sponsors sincerely. The number of entries was certainly down, but the general quality was still good and the winners surely deserved to be winners. In support of the Institutes introduction of Facebook in our communications strategy the theme of Steel Awards this year was social media, and the entries for the competition also relied on people using the electronic media effectively. We are waiting to see whether this will make people more receptive to the modern media.
Publicity 2011
FOLLOW US ON
The institute is in constant communication with the broader public, but also with industry and the professions through a variety of media. During the past year we have often spoken on the radio about issues affecting the industry, we have been quoted in the business press, and much has been said about us or by us in papers and journals targeted at segments of industry, the professions, property owners and others. In a few instances a large part of the contents of some trade journal would have its origin with us. Internal marketing, which refers to our interaction with our members, remains extremely important. The Institute can only be effective if our members think we are doing a good job, they know what the Institute is all about, and they give their support. The Institutes media are important in reaching our members, but they also need to come together sometimes, and the annual Golf Day is one opportunity for that. The events attendance cant grow it is always over-subscribed, but it is reassuring to see that many companies are represented on the highest level and bring their top clients to this event. Other opportunities for members to come together come in the form of breakfast meetings, where members can learn about issues of importance to the industry from authorities on various subjects. For some 13 years now the Institute and the Department of Architecture at the University of the Free State have collaborated to bring a

prominent architect from somewhere in the world to South Africa. This has proven to be one of our very best market development endeavours, as it has become very popular among architects (some 1 300 architects and architectural students attend the lectures offered in several cities each year) and has elevated steel in their minds to the level of a material of huge architectural and aesthetic potential. This also allows us to speak directly to large audiences of architects and to bring the Institute and steel to their attention. Our visitor this year was a very famous American architect, Tom Kundig, who has done remarkable projects in many countries, using steel to great effect. Having such a person sing the praises of steel as green, beautiful, etc. amounts to an advertisement money cant pay for. One of the projects identified during the Boards strategic planning exercise at the end of last year was the promotion of steel in multi-storey buildings. We have worked on this project, but were hindered by not having adequate and suitable staff, while some of the projects we worked on with a view to having them built with steel structures were postponed due
to the general slump in the property industry. The Institute has improved its staff situation and is gearing up to tackle this project. Growing the market for structural steel is of fundamental importance, and there is reason to believe that the time is now right for steel to make inroads, as a number of factors which can favour steel have shifted in the building industry.

Engineering
The single project, aside from Steel Awards, which received the greatest amount of time and effort from SAISC staff and members this past year, was the writing of a new handbook on the design of connections, to replace our old Green Book. The book covers the whole subject of connection design, from foundations to semi-rigid connections, and is intended to make the process easier and more correct, and the outcome more in line with the processes employed by steelwork contractors with modern equipment. The draft of the book was handed to the members of the Engineering Committee and the Professional Individual members of the Institute, who provided valuable comments and ideas. The contents of the book was further refined during the course on the design of connections run towards the end of October. The book will be printed and ready at the beginning of 2012. The Bookshop remained a prime source of income for the Institute, with the Red Book the top seller. It keeps surprising us that the demand for this book seems never to diminish. No new publications were added to the list this past year. Our expectation is that the new connections book will be a prime seller and will come to be regarded as something every design engineer or draughtsman should have. All institutes of steel construction in the world tend to consider giving technical advice as one of their primary tasks. Larger organisations may even have staff dedicated entirely to advising engineers. Sometimes trying to respond to an enquiry can grow into a whole research project and publications flowing out of it. That happened on two occasions this past year. Firstly, questions and arguments emerging from the issue of the bolts specified for the new power stations caused us to do an in-
depth study of the specifications governing the production and use of bolts in Europe, the USA and further afield, which greatly assisted in the resolution of the uncertainties. A document resulted, which will in future be a valuable resource for those who have to specify bolts, especially for projects with special requirements, and for those who have to procure and install such bolts. Another investigation resulted from arguments around steel specified, defects observed during different stages, and the requirement for remedial action. This resulted in a series of articles in Steel Construction. Two years ago the Institute hosted the first conference on Structures for Mining and Related Materials Handling (SMMH). The next such conference will be held in October 2012 and we have obtained the support of all our sister organisations from the Englishspeaking countries of the world and many others, so as to make the

conference a truly international event. The coming conference will be accompanied by courses for designers and maintenance managers, as well as site visits. The conference builds on the set of SANS 10208 standards governing the design of structures for the mining industry, developed under the auspices of the SAISC and generally regarded as the most advanced in the world. Standards The committee responsible for the SANS 10208 set of standards continued meeting on a monthly basis during the year, and with further developing the standards and writing commentaries to explain the standards to users. We can but only admire the dedication and the quality of work produced by Dr Geoff Krige and his committee. Progress with the writing of the cladding standard SANS 10237 was hampered this year by the fact that huge problems were experienced with a testing programme at the University of Stellenbosch that were aimed at gaining clarity about the behaviour of roof sheeting in tests and the test procedures specified in the standard. SANS 10162-2, the standard governing the design of cold-formed steelwork, was changed this year by adopting the Australian standard, which itself was based on the North American standard, as the South
African standard. This was done to overcome certain weaknesses in the old SANS 10162-2, such as that it did not allow for screwed connections, which are very common in light steel frame building. The Executive Director is the chairman of the SABS committee SC 59F, which oversees all standards relating to the use of steel in construction. We are also active participants in the ISO committee ISO/TC 167, which deals with the specifications governing the execution of steel structures, including the quality standards to be achieved in fabrication and erection.

Education
The following courses were offered during the year, some on more than one occasion or at more than one venue: Course on estimating, tendering and financial control of projects, aimed primarily at steelwork contractors Basics of steel course, aimed at giving a wide range of people a reasonable generalised knowledge of the material steel and the issues around it A half day workshop for architects, during which they were given information on structural concepts, specification of architectural steelwork, light steel frame building, cladding and other subjects. This was a singular opportunity to preach our gospel. Course on connections for structural steelwork, based on the new connections handbook.
items encompass most of what we do: Senior members of the SAISC staff are regularly asked to serve as external examiners for Masters and PhD theses. The two to three day Steel Awareness course was offered to students in engineering or architecture at several universities, serving to give them a basic feel and understanding of steel as a construction material. The Institute is bringing its bursary scheme for engineering students to a close. In its place we are putting more emphasis on the sponsoring of post graduate research. The reason for the move is that experience has shown that we gain much more from the post graduate programme. Not only do we get useful research results, but the students are more mature and they get immersed in steel for an

extended period, causing to build a relationship with and deeper understanding of the material. Senior staff of the Institute offered lectures at several universities to groups of students on such topics as multi-storey buildings, welding, and light steel framing. A substantial number of prizes have been awarded to top students, mostly for projects relating to steel construction. The Institute invited and covered the costs of Dr Leroy of Imperial College, London, to South Africa to present post graduate courses in steel design at the Universities of the Witwatersrand and Cape Town. He also presented talks to audiences of practicing engineers. During Steel Awards the two top students in structural engineering from six universities, as well as a lecturer from most of these institutions, were bought to Johannesburg under the New Generation banner. They spent a full day learning about steel construction and visiting a workshop, and exceptional structure and a construction site to witness steelwork being erected. They concluded the day by attending the Steel Awards function.
where they make a significant contribution to the country and to our industry, and who thank the Institute for its contribution to their success.
Steady progress was made during the year with the Institutes programme for the training of structural steel assemblers. A number of companies sent some of their senior boilermakers for a training the trainer session conducted by us, and are proceeding to provide directed training to aspirant assemblers. The reports we receive on the performance of assemblers who have undergone this training is hugely heartening. Spencer Erling attended a conference in the United Kingdom on the suitability of engineering education at universities, during which he learned much that can be of benefit to us. The measure of what the Institute does in education is not how much energy we expend on the issue, but what lasting results we achieve. In this regard we are happy to report that we constantly bump into people in the professions or in the industry who have achieved positions

SAISC School of Draughting The school is now an accredited CETA Training Provider. This full accreditation status has been granted for five years. We are now in a position to issue the National Diploma in Structural Steelwork Detailing (SAQA QUAL ID 48636) to our learners. In February we said farewell to the third group of students. These students will be the first to receive the National Diploma in Structural Steelwork Detailing at a graduation function planned for October 2011. The forth group is currently in their final year. During November 2010 they went to their employers for a ten week training period on workshop and site procedure. On their return to the School they had to submit a portfolio of work as evidence on what they have learned and the skills they have acquired during this ten week practical period. They all had basic training on both Tekla Structures 17 and StruCad Evolution. After the basic training the students specialised in their dedicated program which they will use in their work place. Three learners are trained on AutoCad Structural Detailing 2010 because this is the program they are going to work on in their work place. Every year we undertake field trips to expose the learners and to give them a better understanding of industry. They also attend any SAISC and other seminars and workshops that they can benefit from. Because of the conditions in the steel construction industry the school
Above right: The SAISC/DSE Draughting School Class of 2011 Right: The top students who were invited to the Steel Awards
had a small student intake of five learners in March 2011. These students have completed the basic training on how to apply drawing techniques to produce detail drawings of basic structural steelwork assemblies. The School is also involved in the further development and training of a number of draughtsman already in the employ of companies in the industry, as well as steel merchant sales staff, in the latter instance to make them familiar with structural drawings and specifications.

Relationships with others
We are members of the International Steelwork Contractors Group (ISCG), a loose association of the bodies representing the steelwork contractors in the English-speaking countries, including the USA, Canada, UK, Australia and New Zealand. This has become a closelyknit group from which we receive a huge amount of support and information. The group had one of its bi-annual meetings in Paihia, New Zealand in March and the exchanges at this meeting confirmed again the importance of the SAISCs membership of it.
In South Africa we maintain ties, in many cases very close, with some 35 associations and statutory bodies serving the following industries: Steel and associated Engineering, architectural and quantity surveying professions Property Building and construction Organised business
Aside from the reaffirmation of our ties and the knowledge we gained or got access to, the meeting also serves as a benchmarking exercise for us. In comparing ourselves with others, we have to allow for the fact that we all come from countries of widely varying size and that the fundamental purpose of each is not the same, but our conclusion is that we are doing the right things for our specific industry, and that we are effective. Aside from ISCG, we also maintain relations with many other associations in Europe, South America and the Far East, including those in Japan, Singapore and China. An official delegation of the Chinese Institute of Steel Construction visited us, following our visit to China last year, and we showed them around the country.

Influencing the business environment
The Southern African Institute of Steel Construction appointed an Industry Development Executive in 2007 to actively promote the growth of and investment in the Steel Construction Industry. This would form the basis for supplying structural steelwork for Southern Africa and for Africa from South Africa, by influencing the environment within which the steel construction industry operates. During this period the Institute has been involved in a wide range of issues, including the following: Construction Sector Charter, SAISI Downstream Development Committee, export promotion clusters, Competitive Supplier Development Program (CSDP), skills development, applications for the use of foreign labour, the Chinese and Indian import threats, government programs such as NIPP PPPFA, IPAP I & II, New Growth Path, DTI and IDC , Incentive schemes, steel supply and pricing, import protection through duties, etc. and import substitution. Although all the various activities are integrated with the regular SAISC activities it is convenient to briefly describe them here. None of the activities listed below were done in isolation and many people contributed to the positive outcomes. Steel for powerstations: The decisions to buy local steel are now fully supported by ESKOM and their major contractors. The subcontracting of
steel to local fabricators is problematical in a number of respects and this is being monitored and support given where appropriate. Efforts continue to limit the tonnages of steel imported for these projects.

CSDP (Competitive Supplier Development Programme): The DTI (Department of Trade & Industry) and DPE (Department of Public Enterprises) are driving this program as part of the government NIPF (National Industrial Development Program) initiative with ESKOM, TRANSNET and PBMR. SASOL and PetroSA are also targeted. Our exercise on promoting structural steel for power stations is used as a model for other CSDP initiatives. ESKOM has appointed dedicated managers to drive the process and has formed a number of product hubs such as the Boiler Hub and a Turbine Hub where various Task Teams are appointed to explore specific opportunities. Following the import of some 27 000 tons of steelwork for power lines recently from India we formed a power line task team at the SAISC where industry representatives and ESKOM met monthly to analyse the industry requirements and problems and develop joint strategies towards local supply. This was followed up by the compilation and submission of a formal application to ITAC (International Trade Agreements Commission) for the imposition of 15% import protection on power pylons and cellular tower steelwork in spite of objections from ESKOM. Publication of the application in the government gazette took place in March 2011. Progress was reported on to ITAC during August 2011. As requested by the DTI we are participating in the CSDP feedback sessions with ESKOM, NIASA and Transwerk and are interacting with representatives of these organisations. PetroSA has slowed down progress with the planned Mthombo refinery at Coega. We led a very successful delegation to Houston to introduce the industry. Follow up involvement is being maintained with PetroSA. The SAISC was registered as a SPX (Subcontractor and Procurement Exchange) Centre with UNIDO (United Nations Industrial Development Organisation) to facilitate the industrys participation in the various SOEs purchasing processes. A consultant was appointed by the SAISC and visited member companies to
implement this. It involves profiling of industry members, i.e. electronically coding members capabilities and products using standardised international systems. This will assist participating companies to receive additional export enquiries. The Benchmarking of members was done using a modern business approach to make comparisons with the best practices worldwide and also to facilitate continuous improvement processes at individual participants. Imports from China and elsewhere we have established contact with the DTI and authorities involved in granting import licenses and regularly provide input. Contact is maintained with the Chinese industry to keep abreast of developments. This is an area where much pressure towards imports of complete process plants is experienced

and as expected it is getting worse, particularly with the Rand remaining relatively strong. A number of projects such as the Sepaku cement plants, the Xstrata Lion project at Steelpoort are being investigated and strategies developed. Regular liaison with DTI officials takes place to provide information on industry activities and to provide input on possible new incentives, etc. Presentations were prepared and presented to the applicable Parliamentary Committees commenting and providing information on the effects of IPAP2 and steel pricing on the South African industry. Input is provided from time to time at the Gauteng Development Group, Nedlac, Busa, etc. Close liaison is maintained through the CEA with SEIFSA. The SAISC is an active participant in the NIASA (Nuclear Industry Association of SA) in terms of preparing for nuclear industrialisation requirements and meeting future BBBEE requirements. Information sessions for members have been arranged. Contact was made with and meetings held with representatives
of the Competitions Board to clarify the position of Associations. The SAISC, ISF and SASFA are maintaining meetings in a compliant manner. Consultants were identified and commissioned to conduct a study on the Multiplier Effect applicable to steel construction projects. An analysis was done of the impact on the South African business environment of actual steel construction projects done by members. The results are being published widely and can be extra-polated to other projects.

Contractors
The meetings of the Contractors Committee serve a purpose in themselves, in that they bring contractors together to learn from each other, to discuss how the industry can be improved, and to address common problems. It should be added that great care is taken to avoid any discussion that could in any way fall foul of the Competitions Act. The committee is a demonstration of the fact that competitors in an industry can indeed meet with the objective of improving the industry as a whole, to the benefit of its clients. The committee has recognised that there is a need for the training of supervisors in steel fabricating companies, and also of inspectors, whose training is often limited to welding issues. The technical knowledge required by supervisors and inspectors is largely the same, although the supervisors also need to learn about many other things. The committee instructed the Institute to develop a course aimed at these two groups, and this is currently in progress, with the intent of offering the course early in 2012. A group of steel fabricator members attended the bi-annual meeting and exhibition of Kaltenbach, the manufacturers of large
machines for steelwork fabrication, in Germany. This is in line with the objective of learning from others, especially world leaders, whenever we can. A number of problems related to specifications, quality and quality assurance of bolts, steel and steel fabrication arose during the year and exercised the minds of the committee. Much work was dedicated to understanding these problems, working out what international specifications actually say, and providing guidance to the industry, also on issues not adequately covered by even the most advanced standards.

Light steel frame building
The South African Light Steel Frame Building Association (SASFA) During the past year SASFA has actively pursued several initiatives to contribute towards the establishment and growth of the light steel frame building industry in Southern Africa. A steady level of publicity was maintained through ongoing placement of articles in prominent media. Furthermore, we received 8 quality entries for Steel Awards 2011, and the judges selected the Athletes Residential Village for the Pan Africa Games in Maputo as the winner of the Light Steel Frame Building Category. SASFA exhibited at the Green Building Conference held in the Sandton Convention Centre. Lively interest was received from mainly architects. Training had again been identified as a priority activity for SASFA. The 6-day training course for
20
FOLLOW US ON
building contractors was presented in Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town. A total of 44 people attended the courses, and 38 certificates of successful completion were issued. Lectures on light steel frame building were presented on request to senior building science students at the Universities of Pretoria and the Witwatersrand, to establish understanding of light steel framing amongst the next generation of designers. This program will be extended to universities in Durban, Cape Town and Bloemfontein. Five final year engineering students at the University of Pretoria are engaged in research projects on different aspects of light steel frame building. Industry meetings were held in Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town to provide feedback on developments and to serve as a platform for networking. Two meetings were held with the Competition Commission, to ensure that SASFA activities are not anticompetitive in nature. SASFA was accepted as an Associate Member of the Master Builders Association of SA. As suggested during the AGM of November 2010, we approached the Institute of Architects to establish closer relationships, and two very successful workshops regarding the use of steel (including light steel frame building) in buildings were arranged.
21
FOLLOW US ON
Three member surveys were undertaken two to determine the levels of light steel frame building activity, and the other to obtain input from members regarding the strategic direction to be followed by SASFA during the next 18 months. Training was again identified as top priority, followed by the need to market light steel frame building to future home owners and architects. We also obtained testimonials from people living in light steel frame building houses not surprisingly, the majority found light steel frame building houses more comfortable than masonry buildings, especially in winter. SASFA has also commissioned the CSIR to carry out research to objectively establish the energy efficiency of well insulated light steel frame buildings in comparison to conventional masonry buildings early indications are that the findings will offer strong support in our efforts to promote LSFB as a sustainable alternative to brick and mortar. SASFA was represented at a light steel frame building conference in New Zealand, where a paper was presented on light steel frame building developments in South Africa.
A number of light steel frame building projects were visited, as part of SASFAs quality monitoring activity. Editorial changes and corrections to SANS 517 were approved by the Technical Committee, and submitted to the SABS. Progress has also being made with the adoption of the Australian standard to replace the outdated SANS 10162-2. Invitations have been sent out to SASFA Manufacturing Members to apply for assessment for Stage 2 Accreditation. These assessments are planned to take place before the end of the year. It is noteworthy that the manufacturers of light steel frame buildings are expecting to process some 21 000t of galvanised steel sheet during 2011, of which 22% will be exported to sub-Saharan African countries. It is also encouraging that the share of complete buildings (as opposed to roof trusses only) has increased from 20% three years ago, to 40% in the current year.

SANS 10162-1 was offered, as well as a cocktail evening on the use of light steel frame construction. As has become a tradition now, the annual Steel Awards function in Durban was a huge success as an event that brings everybody in the industry together for an evening of enjoyment and networking.

The committee has been active and enthusiastic, with some new members joining. A new subcommittee was established to serve the interests of contractors, emulating the successful example of the Contractors Committee in Johannesburg. The major issue concerning the committee is the poor quality of documentation and bills of quantity provided to steelwork contractors. A course on the design of steel structures according to

demand for higher value-add product such as modularised structures with the mechanical and electrical components already fitted. Structural fabricators only basing their business on ex-work supply can expect to see their margins being eroded coupled with a drop in volume over time. The first step in the new evolving value proposition of the ISF was to market membership to the non-fabricating construction companies active in Africa. We have already been successful in attracting the construction company with the largest footprint in Africa. We trust that more will soon follow. Our recent delegation to Australia was a true multi-disciplinary eight person team of whom only two were traditional structural fabricators. This approach was well received by the main contractors. We are awaiting our first major success in South America. Most
Africa include structural steel for gold mining projects in Mauritania, major coal projects in Mozambique, uranium projects in Namibia and steady exports into Zambia, the DRC, Botswana, Namibia, etc. However, following the global meltdown, the market for mining structures remained depressed and is only now starting to recover. The increased focus of China on Africa coupled with the strong Rand made it extremely difficult to maintain export volumes. This forced the ISF to re-strategise and re-analyse our competitive advantages in the export market, and in particular the Sub-Saharan African mining industry which is our prime export destination. Historically the main focus of the ISF was on its fabricating members. However we observed during the past few years that more and more exports of structural steel are done by non-fabricating companies. Clients are increasingly looking for solutions and not

The marketing focus of the ISF remains the main contractors in other countries, notably Australia and Canada, who are active in Africa and secondly active in South America where there is exceptional growth in major mining projects. likely it will only happen when our mining service companies, like shaft sinkers, achieve their first successes. The value proposition of the ISF does not only include assistance in exports but also assistance in understanding how the worlds structural steel market operates. Maintaining contact with industries around the globe remains one of the priorities of the ISF, enabling it to advise on trends and arrange introductions to various players around the globe. The ISF is a founder member of The Engineering and Technology Export Council Apex Organisation and often takes a leading role in this joint voluntary affiliation. The ISF arranged a cross-industry delegation visiting the funding organisations in Washington DC as well as arranging seminars for three major Korean project houses visiting South Africa. 250000 Highlights for the year included: The ISF and members jointly marketed to potential clients in Mozambique, Namibia, India, Portugal, and Iran. We jointly took part in Government-arranged or -financed national pavilions, exhibitions, and international trade missions to Zambia, Kenya, Tanzania, Mauritania, Morocco, France, Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Argentina, Australia, Canada and the U.S.A. The ISF advises its members and international wind power companies on potential local supply of the structural steel components thereof. 150000 The ISF continues to interact with the Government on various subjects including the national 100000 export strategy, implementation of IPAP2 and the steel industry in 50000 0 1994 1996 1998 2000 2002 2004 2006 2008 2010

In last years annual report we commented that the board of management requested that the institute should try to make itself less dependent upon financing from the steel makers. To do this an increase in membership fees of some This report covers the SAISC, SASFA and ISF. The full financial reports have been presented to the respective AGMs. We are delighted to report that the auditors were very complimentary regarding the way the books were presented to them for the audit and thus there were no issues raised in this regard. 35% was put through for the 2010/2011 year. We further commented that the impact of this, together with the general financial situation would only be felt in the 2011 year. Unfortunately this was the case, together with a major drop off The financial year was a difficult one for both the steel construction industry and, in the case of SASFA, the building industry. Our continued efforts to collect outstanding debtors quickly and to do in course attendance, resulting in both SAISC and ISF showing a small loss for the year.

Never-the-less, as reported last year, we do still have a suitable cash investment at the banks in case of the proverbial rainy day. The anticipated return of Evratz Highveld to the SAISI fold will hopefully have a meaningful positive effect of our cash flow from the new calendar year. ISF Finances Despite the continued increased support of the DTI, with some leads and lags of payments over the end of the financial year, ISF showed a loss for the period. Neels van Niekerk undertook some 13 trips in the period, many of them being multidestination visits. Once the funding for these trips is fully recovered from the DTI, the nett expense to ISF will be of the order of R120 000. This, together with information on the pie chart highlights just how important the DTI support for these trips is to efforts of the ISF SASFA Finances The continued depressed situation in the building industry continues to affect SASFA membership.

the start of the new financial year, the trend of losing existing members and thus their financial contribution continues. At least one founder member has downgraded its membership to ordinary membership

once again with the corresponding drop in income. Whether or not SASFA can continue to attract new membership to make up for these write offs, only time will tell. The relatively small attendances at courses also had its impact, but the courses continue to bring in a positive revenue. With careful selection of venues and attention to costs, SASFA should continue to remain profitable albeit with relatively small profits. SAISC Finances The SAISC ran at a loss for the financial period. The loss was smaller than budgeted for. Were it not for a once off fine from the revenue department relating to incorrect VAT assessments (going back 5 years) the SAISC would have made a small profit. The impact of not having a contribution from Evratz Highveld, together with the serious drop off in course attendance had their effect. The SAISC management team did their best to work within our reduced budget and this managed to contain the size of the loss at the expense of what we have
achieved for the industry. Our performance level is directly related to our staff component. Book sales continue to be an important source of funding for the institute. We look forward to strong sales from the new connection book which will make its appearance late in the financial year.
