Just as rapid is the progression of Nelspruit's I'Langa Mall. It is due for completion at the end of April. Construction World covers the project in detail which has, despite severe difficulties, made rapid progress.
The issue also highlights the sustainability of good quality concrete, while the first major entrant into the local cement market, Sephaku cement takes a bow.

Are labour brokers necessary? Are labour brokers the answer to scarce South African industry skills? Isabel Correia, MD of Paradigm HR Solutions thinks so. But these brokers require integrity and have to put their client's needs first. Concrete durability and sustainability Concrete buildings and infrastructure represent great benefits to society, and modern economies are unthinkable without the contribution of concrete. Concrete is widely used due to its low cost, ease of use, good track record, versatility, local availability, thermal benefits, acoustic dampening and durability. Almost taking flight The final phase in the construction of the new R1,2-billion Integrated Terminal and R350-million new multi-storey parkade at Cape Town International Airport is underway, and joint venture contractors Grinaker-LTA and Stefanutti Stocks report that it is on track for completion in April 2010. Rapid sunrise in Nelspruit I'Langa Mall (‘I'Langa' meaning sun) is the latest addition to the expanding city of Nelspruit. Constructed within the short period of 14 working months, the regional shopping centre is set to open this month on the 29 April 2010. First since 1934 Sephaku Cement, an 80,2% held subsidiary of HDSA controlled and JSE listed Sephaku Holdings, has announced that the company has appointed Nedbank Capital, a division of Nedbank Limited, as mandated lead arranger of the project finance facilities for the company's new cement projects in the North West Province and Mpumalanga.
