Nedbank Capital Expenditure Project Listing 2019 CAPITAL EXPENDITURE PROJECT LISTING 1 January 1993 to 31 December 2019 NEDBANK GROUP ECONOMIC UNIT 11 February 2020 NOTES: Definition: The schedule is a listing of capital projects announced in the Republic of South Africa. It includes: • Only projects valued at R20 million or more. • Projects of an expansionary nature, i.e. capex which allows for an increase in the level of output, rather than pure replacement investment which involves the replacement of worn-out or outdated capital goods necessary for the continued operation and the maintenance of current output levels. The exceptions are: • investment in equipment or machinery which reduces the harmful effects of pollution, and • technological upgrading of equipment and machinery. • Projects funded by both the private and public sectors. • Projects reflecting direct foreign involvement. The listing is compiled on a sectoral basis, conforming to the Standard Industrial Classification. Limitations: Any analysis of the data needs to take account of the limitations outlined below: • The schedule highlights significant areas of investment expenditure and not the absolute total value of all capital investment undertaken in the country. It serves as a rough guide to the general direction in which investment is moving and as an indication of the level of confidence in the economy. • The full extent of replacement capital expenditure is not captured as mainly expansionary capital expenditure are published and recorded. • In certain sectors a reliable indication of investment activity is not possible as typical investments are not large enough to be included in the schedule, even though the total capital expenditure in the sector may be substantial. For example, in the construction and finance sectors typical investments are generally in vehicles, machinery, computer and other technical equipment which individually fall below the R20 million minimum. • The value of each project refers to the total original announced value at current prices. • It is not always possible to allocate projects to the appropriate sector due to their diverse nature. Projects are generally allocated to specific sectors according to the core business of the company or institution undertaking the investment. However, in cases where the company is unknown the nature of investment serves as a guide for classification. This principal is also applied to diverse projects where no rand value can be related to a specific economic activity within the project. • For example, a waterfront development is typically undertaken by a property company or developer. Although it consists of retail and office developments, hotels, restaurants and other entertainment and recreational facilities, it is classified under "real estate activities with own or leased property". In cases where a government entity undertakes an investment of a diverse nature which involves, for example, infrastructure development, site preparation, low-cost housing as well as water, electricity and sanitation such a project will be classified under "central government or regional services council or local authorities". However, if a local authority, for example, undertakes a specific project such as developing community sport facilities it will be allocated to "sporting and other recreational activities". i Sources: Although a wide range of publications are used to compile the listing, we would specifically like to thank Engineering News for their on-going contribution to this publication. While every care is taken to ensure that the information in this document is as correct and up-to-date as possible, there are more than likely some exclusions and inaccuracies. In the interest of providing a faithful indication of capital expenditure undertaken, it would be greatly appreciated if you would contact us should you come across any exclusions or inaccuracies.

It is named after the Limpopo River, which forms the province's western and northern borders. The name "Limpopo" has its etymological origin in the Northern Sotho language word diphororo tša meetse, meaning "strong gushing waterfalls". The capital is Polokwane, formerly called Pietersburg. Steelpoort is a mining town in Sekhukhune District Municipality in the Limpopo province of South Africa. It is located on the border with Mpumalanga province. Mining operations around Steelpoort include the Dwarsrivier chrome mine (30 km from Steelpoort, located in Mpumalanga) owned by Assmang, Tweefontein chrome mine and Tubatse Ferrochrome, owned by Samancor, Two Rivers and Modikwa platinum mines managed by Patrice Motsepe’s African Rainbow Minerals, as well as Mototolo platinum mine and the Lion Ferrochrome smelter, both owned by Xstrata. The name Steelpoort is believed to be derived from a hunting expedition that took place either in the late 19th century or the early 20th century. When a group of Voortrekkers from Natal under Frans Joubert had settled there, a man called Scholtz shot an elephant at dusk and on returning next morning found that the tusks had been removed. The river flowing through the poort was then called Steelpoort River (‘steel’ meaning steal). An increase in the mining of chrome and magnetite led to the construction of a railway line between Steelpoort and Lydenburg in 1924. 1. About Limpopo & Steelpoort 2. Demographic Profile INDEX 3.

As part of the rehabilitation and widening contract the downhill truck crawler lane was constructed as an experimental pavement section. This experimental pavement section was constructed with a 50 mm thick Ultra-Thin Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement (UTCRCP). Early in 2010 sections of the experimental UTCRCP started to fail and consequently necessitated repair. In October 2014 a service provider was appointed for the special maintenance of the truck crawler lane on the National Route 1 Section 1. The project called for the reinstatement of the failed experimental UTCRCP with a re-engineered UTCRCP and a Enrobé à Module Élevé (EME) asphalt base layer with an Ultra-Thin Friction Course (UTFC), at various locations along the southbound (downhill) truck crawler lane. The project objective was specifically formulated to enable a long term performance comparison of both the re-engineered UTCRCP and the EME with UTFC under repeated traffic loading. The focus of this paper is the documentation and assessment of the initial pavement (structural analysis) and material design process, the construction of the UTCRCP, with cognizance of the challenges experienced during construction as well as the initial performance comparison.
