CONSOLIDATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2018/2019 Summary of results for the year 2018/2019 The 2018/2019 year ended according to forecasts, with sales, EBITDA and profits higher than in 2017/2018, with an 11%. Group revenues went up compared to last year, with rising sales in the Plant Making segment and increased sales in the Steel Making segment as well, which is also showing greater production volumes than in 2017/18, thanks to the re-start of the ABS Sisak steelmaking facility and in spite of the losses of the EWS pipe mill, for which we are in the process of determining the appropriate corrective actions to be taken in regard to the business. The year basically ended in a satisfactory manner, having correctly analyzed the situation by updating an operating vision that produced good results. EBITDA (which essentially reflects the margins correlated with the order book for the period) was according to forecasts and will be even better in the next fiscal year as we don’t foresee any extraordinary penalties due to local situations (Algeria), and some major innovative prototype plants will be starting up.

  • The Partnership of Nucor and Danieli Teams Will Bring the Gallatin Casting and Rolling Plant to the Next Level of High-Quality Production and Competitiveness
    The partnership of Nucor and Danieli teams will bring the Gallatin casting and rolling plant to the next level of high-quality production and competitiveness. This is the first time that a classical compact thin slab casting and rolling plant is fully reconfigured into an ultra-modern QSP® (Quality Strip Production) plant. Both Nucor and Danieli teams are committed to set a new benchmark in Casting and Rolling Technology. Formerly known as the Gallatin Steel Company, the thin slab rolling plant located in Ghent, KY has a name plate capacity of 1.6 million shTPY of hot rolled coils having a thickness range from 1.4 to 12.7 mm, widths up to 1,625 mm and maximum coil weight of 35 shTon. The existing plant operates a 185 t twin shell DC EAF, a single LMF, a vertical caster, 206 m tunnel furnace, a six-stand close-coupled rolling mill, traditional laminar cooling and one down coiler. The current capabilities of the steel plant are mostly structural steel, micro-alloyed grades and thin line pipe grades. Like similar compact plants, Gallatin was originally designed for doubling the annual capacity by means of a second meltshop, second vertical caster and tunnel furnace connected by a swivel ferry system to the in-line HSM. The new equipment was originally meant to be a copy of the existing one. In October 2014, Nucor became the owner of the Gallatin Steel Company and has recently approved an investment to advance the technological capabilities and competitiveness of the Nucor Steel Gallatin Sheet Mill. Danieli is the selected technology supplier for the complete equipment and automation system, from raw materials to hot rolled coil.

  • Reliability of Engineering News-Record International Construction Data
    Reliability of Engineering News-Record international construction data Weisheng Lu1 Abstract Since the late 1970s, the Engineering News-Record (ENR) has produced annual lists ranking firms involved in building environment development on the basis of their international revenues. ENR lists, such as the Top 225 International Contractors and the Top 200 International Design Firms, have become popular datasets for international construction research. Nonetheless, given that the ENR data is self-reported, reviewers for journals and research funding bodies frequently question its reliability. The aim of this research is to ascertain the extent to which the self-report ENR data can be considered reliable for international construction research. Inter-data reliability tests conducted to measure the levels of resemblance between the ENR data and annual report data of 51 sample companies found that, contrary to the prevalent view that companies reporting to the ENR tend to inflate their revenues, there are no systematic errors in the ENR data. Although slight discrepancies were found, ENR data can be confidently used for international construction research. Journal reviewers and editors should be more open to ENR international construction data, rather than taking the default position that the data is inherently and seriously problematic and thus automatically dismissing those studies that use it. Keywords: International construction, Engineering News-Record, international companies, self-report data, data reliability 1 Assistant Professor, Department of Real Estate and Construction, Faculty of Architecture, The University of Hong Kong, Pokfulam, Hong Kong. Email: [email protected] 1 Introduction ‘International construction’ is when a company resident in one country performs work in another country (Ngowi et al., 2005).
