Company Announcement -The Southern African Institute of Steel Construction has called for entries for the 2015 Steel Awards and photo competition. SAISC communications manager Renee Pretorius says that after the high standard of the 2014 Awards there has been extraordinary expectation throughout the steel construction industry in relation to this year’s Awards.

Although the judges decide on the categories and winners based on the actual entries received, the following awards and categories will definitely happen: Overall Winner, Tubular Category, Light Steel Framing Category, Factory and Warehouse Category and a new category for carbon steel based cladding related issues.

There are several factors that are considered when judging. These include: the importance of steel as a structural component of the project, benefits achieved by using steel construction, aesthetic appeal, environmental/ sustainability consideration, innovation in design, fabrication or construction, technical prowess required for realising the project, engineering expertise, exceptional quality of workmanship, tubular content, cladding: workmanship, innovation, special solutions, size, speed, architectural finish etc. and more.

“In short”, says Pretorius, “the primary criterion for Steel Awards is: ‘Does the project illustrate what can be achieved with steel? The best photograph of any entry also wins an award and effort is made to give all projects entered some publicity. Entries must be sent in as soon as possible. The Steel Awards take place in Gauteng, KZN and the Western Cape on September 3rd 2015.
