    South Africa is a

    c o u n t r y o f

    crafty people.

    T h e y p ro d u c e a n

    incredible range of

    a r t s a n d c r a f t s ,

    work ing f rom the

    p a v e m e n t s a n d

    markets of the big

    cities to deep rural

    enclaves, with every

    p o s s i b l e f o r m o f

    traditional artwork.

    There's a lot of new work in traditional media, with artists

    constantly developing the African crafts range. These range from

    pretty tableware, Christmas tree decorations and magnificent

    embroidered cloths to the simplest of items, such as keyrings and

    candle-holders.

    South African arts and crafts are made from every possible

    medium. Traditional materials like beads, grass, leather, wood

    and clay are worked using traditional skills, while materials such

    as telephone wire, plastic bags, glass and bottle tops are used to

    create vibrant, contemporary craft items that reflect our cultural

    diversity.

    Art and craft objects in South Africa include items like wire art

    and eco-friendly bags made from recycled bottle tops ,

    traditional beadwork, pottery and woven baskets, tableware,

    fabrics, ceramics and beautiful wooden carvings.

    You will find a number of markets and collectives selling modern

    and traditional African craft in every city and in cultural villages

    dotted around the country. Often, these South African arts and

    crafts co-operatives directly benefit local communities, teaching

    skills and providing employment through tourism. These

    cooperatives also nurture hidden talent, with skilled artists

    emerging to attain national and international attention for their

    work.

    One example of this is the work of ceramicist Bonnie

    Ntshalintshali, with its almost phantasmagoric detail, which has

    gone well beyond the confines of traditional African pottery and

    been bought by galleries around the world.

    Sculptor Phutuma Seoka is another artist who has taken a

    traditional craft – Venda wood carving – and used it to create a

    cast of eccentric and highly sought-after characters.

    Esther Mahlangu, has adapted Ndebele paining techniques

    using distinctive, highly coloured geometric Ndebele designs for

    use on everything from cars to aeroplanes.

    South Africa also has many galleries and museums that showcase

    examples of traditional and more recent South African art, from

    that of the San to artists like Irma Stern, Gerald Sekoto and Walter

    Battiss.

    With distinctive creativity, South Africans have adapted every

    possible medium to a market that feeds both locals and

    tourists.In addition to the standard materials such as beads,

    grass, leather, fabric and clay, pieces are made using telephone

    wire, plastic bags, petrol cans and bottle tops – even food tin

    labels are used to create brightly coloured papier mache bowls.

    On sale on many a South African street corner are objects made

    of wire, ranging from representations of the globe to cars and

    motorcycles-which are capable of manipulated movement-to

    joke cell phones and working radios.

    Exports from Africa were worth US$373.1 billion in 2015, down by -39.8% since 2011 and down by -34.9% from 2014. African ex-ports represent an estimated 2.3% of total world exports which were $16.239 trillion during 2015.

    Based on statistics from the Inter-national Monetary Fund’s World Economic Outlook Database, the total Gross Domestic Product for African countries amounted to roughly $5.809 trillion in 2015.

    Therefore, exports account for about 6.4% of Africa’s total eco-nomic output.

    Given Africa’s population of about 1.153 billion people, the total $373.1 billion in 2015 African ex-ports translates to roughly $323 for every person on the continent.

    Health is the level of func-tional or metabolic effi-

    ciency of a living organism. In humans it is the ability of

    individuals or communities to adapt and self-manage when

    facing physical, mental or social challenges. The World Health Organization (WHO) defined health in its broader sense in its 1948 constitu-

    tion as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or

    infirmity." This definition has been subject to controversy, in particular as lacking op-

    erational value and because of the problem created by

    use of the word "complete". Other definitions have been

    proposed, among which a re-cent definition that correlates health and personal satisfac-tion. Classification systems such as the WHO Family of International Classifications, including the International

    Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) and the International Clas-sification of Diseases (ICD),

    are commonly used to define and measure the components

    of health.

    By Fabian Ehing Product Manager – WIKA Germany

    Measuring instruments for pressure and temperature are used in almost all ar-eas of industrial manufacturing. As a re-sult of continuous mechanical, chemi-cal and thermal loading, these instruments age and can therefore not guarantee the correctness of the measured value over the course of time. Through timely calibration, however, the alteration of the measured value can be determined and thus, if needed, an adjustmentcan be carried out.

    Furthermore, standards and directives prescribe that the manufacturers must calibrate the inspec-tion equipment which has a direct and indirect influence on quality. Amongst others, this is speci-fied in the ISO 9001 standard. For a better under-standing, the concepts of calibration and adjust-

    ment are clarified below.

    To “calibrate” in measurement technology means to determine the measuring deviations in the complete measuring instrument. With calibration there is no technical intervention at the measur-ing instrument, such as zero adjustment, span and linearity setting, etc. With indicating measuring instruments calibration establishes the measuring deviation between the display and what is claimed to be the correct value of the measurand. For material measurements, for example masses, the measuring deviation is determined by measuring the difference between the marking and the cor-rect value. For measuring chains one determines the deviation between the measured value of the output signal and the value that this signal should have with an ideal transfer characteristic and a given input value.

    “Adjustment” means setting or alignment of a measuring instrument (also a material measure) so that the measuring deviations are made as small as possible or that the magnitudes of the measuring deviations do not exceed the error limits. The ad-justment, therefore, requires an intervention which, in most cases, permanently alters the measuring instrument or the material measure, e.g. reposi-tioning the pointer or fitting a new dial.

    South Africa is a world leader in mining. The country is famous for its abundance of mineral resources, accounting for a significant propor-tion of world production and reserves, and South African mining companies are key players in the global industry.

    South Africa’s total reserves remain some of the world’s most valuable, with an estimated worth of R20.3 trillion ($2.5 trillion). Overall, the country is estimated to have the world’s fifth largest mining sector in terms of GDP value. It has the world’s largest reserves of manganese and platinum group metals (PGMs), according to the US Geological Survey, and among the largest reserves of gold, diamonds, chromite ore and vanadium.

    With South Africa’s economy built on gold and dia-mond mining, the sector is an important foreign ex-change earner, with gold accounting for more than one-third of exports. In 2009, the country’s diamond industry was the fourth largest in the world. South Af-rica is also a major producer of coal, manganese and chrome.

    There is considerable potential for the discovery of other world-class deposits in areas yet to be exhaus-tively explored. South Africa’s prolific mineral reserves include precious metals and minerals, energy minerals, non-ferrous metals and minerals, ferrous minerals, and industrial minerals.

    Given its history and mineral wealth, it is no surprise that the country’s mining companies are key players in the global industry. Its strengths include a high level of technical and production expertise, and comprehen-sive research and development activities.

    World-class primary processing facilities work with carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminium, gold and platinum. South Africa is also a world leader of new technologies, such as ground breaking process that converts low-grade superfine iron ore into high quality iron units.

    Demag’s newly-launched V-Type crane girder can easily manage more than 500 000 load changes, more than double the service life of a conventional box-section girder – mak-ing it a game changer in the local materials-handling sector.

    Launched in early 2016, Demag’s V-Type girder delivers impressive load-handling rates combined with high safety. “Regardless of the model type selected, the V-Type crane girder can be adapted easily to any building shape. It is the ideal solution both for exist-ing buildings, as well as for new construction projects,” Demag Senior Manager Sales & Marketing Richard Roughley explains.

    Built with safety in mind, the V-Type girder allows 30% more light to pass through, ena-bling personnel to better see their surround-ings, while brightening the workspace. This improved view ultimately results in a safer and more attractive working environment.

    The V-Type girder also has a shorter time cycle, helping to increase productivity and overall output. It boasts several lifting points for safer installation of the load and has more clamping and attachment points for lamps.

    What’s more, the tapered diaphragm joints also replace the solid box-section design

    of conventional cranes. Tapered diaphragm joints accommodate pressure and tensile forces more effectively to reduce resonant frequency by 30%.

    On average, the V-Type is 17% lighter than comparable cranes with box-section girders. This not only reduces the forces transmit-ted to the existing support superstructure, as well as providing architects with greater freedom when planning new building lay-outs, but it also improves the relative dead-weight-to-load-capacity ratio.

    Background and History

    The South African Wood Preservers As-sociation (SAWPA), founded in 1982, is an association of member’s representative of the primary wood and timber preservation industry. The main objectives of the as-sociation are to promote the interest of its members, of which the majority are primary timber treaters and preservative treated tim-ber suppliers, and/or suppliers of chemical timber preservatives used by the treaters; to promote and encourage the use of primary preservative treated timber products; to act as a facilitator and representative on behalf of its members on all matters that impact their primary purpose, i.e. the preservative treatment of timber, e.g. standards devel-opment, legislative and regulatory matters, education of end users including profession-als, contractors as well as the general public. SAWPA also acts as a center for technical enquiries and advice/information to all us-ers and specifiers of primary preservative treated timber.

    SAWPA Members and their primary business The primary treater members consists of wood pole producing plants as well as saw-mills that process poles and sawn timber and then preservative treat it by means of impregnation (pressure) processes with in-dustrial wood preservative that contain in-secticides or fungicides (or both). The bioc-ides, which are deeply impregnated into the sapwood of the timber, renders the timber durable and resistant to insect or fungal at-tack (or both) and thus extend its lifespan. SAWPA represents 81 of the 115 treatment plants spread all across South Africa.

    The chemical wood preservative supplier members consist of manufacturers of dif-ferent classes of wood preservatives, i.e. two class C producers, i.e. creosote and coal tar mixtures, and three Class W, i.e. waterborne preservative producers of which two also produce class O – Light Organic Solvent pre-servatives.

    site at www.sawpa.co.za

    Preservative Treated Timber ProductsPreservative treated timber has wide and endless application possibilities ranging from the building and construction, agri-cultural and farming, mining, landscaping, power distribution, telecommunication, rail way, wildlife and tourism industries etc.

    The creosote and coal-tar mixtures are mainly used for exterior industrial and ag-ricultural purposes where close contact and proximity with the timber is not a concern. This is purely as a result of the tar oil com-

    position and strong aromatic nature of mix-tures of creosote and coal tar wood preserv-atives. Typical end applications and products are utility poles and cross-arms used for power distribution and communication sys-tems, poles and droppers for agricultural and fencing purposes, and rail way ties. Be-cause of its oily and carbon residual nature it has additional water repellant characteristics and résistance to grass fires, and fairs well in dry arid regions.

    The class W or waterborne preservatives used are predominantly CCA type preserva-tive, although some of the alternatives such as alkaline copper quaternary (ACQ), borates and copper azoles (CuAz) types are available from a select group of SAWPA members. CCA treated sawn timber or poles have a distinct green colour due to the copper con-tained in the preservative solution. The end use applications of timber products treated with class W preservatives, e.g. CCA are end-less and wide ranging and include building and construction timber and poles, agricul-tural and fencing poles and droppers, util-ity poles and cross-arms, fencing timbers, landscaping timber, decking, roofing and decorative laths, etc. CCA treated timber and poles are clean and dry to the touch, can be painted and sealed, has no distinct or strong smell. Because of its water based na-ture caution must be taken in ensuring that the timber has been reasonably re-seasoned before being used in dry arid areas to pre-vent excessive drying defects. When used as planted uprights in grassy veld areas caution must be taken against fires by maintaining clear-cut areas around the pole base as CCA treated poles are prone to afterglow.

    It is estimated that the South African wood preservation industry annually produces in excess of 1.4 million cubic meters of preserv-ative treated timber (sawn and round/pole products) for local and export purposes. The chemical preservative supply capacity by SAWPA member chemical suppliers extends beyond its South African based volume de-mands, this is especially relevant to the class W - waterborne preservative types such as CCA and the alternative types, i.e. ACQ, bo-rates, and CuAz. The members of the South African Wood Preservers Association are well structured and capable of supplying preservative treated timber products and timber preservatives and services into the African market and has been doing so on an ever increasing basis.

    Product Standards and Hazard classifica-tionAll preservative treated timber produced in South Africa are required to be manufac-tured in accordance with SANS 10005, The preservative treatment of timber, and must comply and be certified to the relevant SANS product standard, by either the South Afri-can Bureau of Standards (SABS) or the South

    African Technical Auditing Services (SATAS).

    The product standards for preservative treat-ed timber consist of:

    SANS 457 Wooden poles, droppers, guardrail posts and spacer blocks- Part 2 – Softwood poles (pine)- Part 3 – Hardwood poles (gum)

    SANS 753 Pine poles, cross-arms and spacers for pow-er distribution, communication systems and street lighting

    SANS 754 Eucalyptus poles, cross-arms and spacers for power distribution and communication systems

    SANS 1288 Preservative treated timber (this standard covers the preservative treatment of all tim-ber products that fall outside the scope of the aforementioned standards, e.g. structur-al timber and beams, decking, cladding etc.)

    Preservative treated timber products are classified into hazard (H) classes that are grouped according to the end-use exposure or risk to which the timber will be exposed, and the required chemical retention or load-ing, and the depth of preservative penetra-tion for the given risk or exposure.

    Purchasers and users of primary preservative treated timber must identify the exposure and then purchase treated timber to the correct H class which is defined and marked as follows:

    H2 – Interior above ground, e.g. roof truss-es – insect riskH3 – Exterior above ground, e.g. cladding and decking – fungal & insect riskH4 – In ground contact, e.g. poles and posts – fungal & insect riskH5 – In fresh water/wet soils – e.g. piling, feedlot poles – fungal & insect riskH6 – Direct contact with marine waters, e.g. piling – marine borer and fungi

    Sustainable and renewable resource All the preservative treated timber and poles produced in South Africa comes from com-mercial plantations that are managed in a sustainable and renewable manner. The commercial plantations in South Africa con-sist of two groups, i.e. pinus and eucalyptus of which various different species are grown.
