BCSA Limited is the national organisation for the steel

construction industry: its Member companies undertake the

design, fabrication and erection of steelwork for all forms

of construction in building and civil engineering.

Associate Members are those principal companies involved

in the purchase, design or supply of components, materials,

services etc, related to the industry. Corporate Members

are clients, professional offices, educational establishments

etc, which support the development of national

specifications, quality, fabrication and erection techniques,

overall industry efficiency and good practice.

The principal objectives of the Association are to promote

the use of structural steelwork; to assist specifiers and

clients; to ensure that the capabilities and activities of the

industry are widely understood and to provide members

with professional services in technical, commercial,

contractual and quality assurance matters.

The Association’s aim is to influence the trading

environment in which member companies have to operate

in order to improve their profitability.

The Review covers the period 1 July 2003 to 30 June 2004.

The past year has been a turbulent one for the steel construction industry, with frequent

sharp increases in the price of our basic raw material - steel. These price increases have

been driven by global pressures on iron ore, coke and transport costs.The increases have

not only applied to steel sections, plate, tubes and strip, but also to reinforcing steel.

During 2004 steel sections are expected to increase in price by around 40%.

However the price of rebar increased by 50% in the first three months of the year alone.

Steel’s competitive position over concrete for construction remainsintact; for example, the cost of a steel beam and composite slab floorbuilding frame is currently around £90/m2 compared to £133/m2

for a reinforced concrete frame and flat slab and £170/m2 for aconcrete frame with a post tensioned flat slab.

The steel construction industry’s total output in 2003 fell marginallyby 2% from 2002 to 1,206,000 tonnes.The forecast output for 2004was 1% up on 2003, but this looks like 4% up giving an increase from1.18 million tonnes in 2003 to a projected 1.23 million tonnes in2005. The forecast into 2006 is for further growth in the region ofaround 5.5%, up from 1.23 million tonnes to 1.3 million tonnes.

BCSA has continued to disseminate best practice guidance and on 27 November 2003 over 350 delegates attended our Steel BuildingsConference and Exhibition in London. At the Conference we alsopublished our new comprehensive book on "Steel Buildings".Increased promotion has taken place during the past year with fullpage advertisements in the press showing examples of steel framedhospitals, multi-storey residential buildings, schools and car parks.

Through our contacts in Government, BCSA was instrumental inobtaining a statement in the March 2004 Budget that a review willtake place of the operation of the adjudication and paymentprovisions in the Construction Act in order to identify whatimprovements can be made to change the situation regarding theunreasonable delays in payment which members suffer inconstruction contracts.

Health and safety has continued to be a major activity with two newbest practice guides published for the safe erection of low risebuildings and metal decking and stud welding. Further guides are inpreparation for bridges and multi-storey buildings and also forerecting steelwork in windy conditions. The Steel ConstructionCertification Scheme has extended its scope and now offerscertification services for health and safety, in addition to qualitymanagement and environmental management.

Whilst continuing the co-operation with our European colleagues.BCSA has extended this dialogue with its English speaking sisterorganisations worldwide; a joint meeting took place between BCSA(UK), AISC (USA), CISC (Canada), ASI (Australia), SAISC (SouthAfrica) and HERA (New Zealand) in California on 27 March. Theobjective is to gain ideas from each country for new marketdevelopment initiatives; discussions took place on: marketing, fire,3D modelling, IT, and visions for the future.

There has been further growth in membership numbers and a widerange of activities has been undertaken to serve and represent theindustry. BCSA is in good shape and looks forward to the future with confidence.

The Review which follows records the many ways in which BCSAhas, over the past year, represented members’ interests and providedthem with a high level of professional service. It also illustrates themany ways in which the Association has promoted the case for steelin construction and assisted specifiers in making full use of the skillsand capabilities of members.

Construction Act ReviewThe Association is delighted that, in response to representations made bythe Association and, later, its colleagues in the Specialist EngineeringContractors’ Group (SEC Group), the Chancellor of the Exchequerannounced in his budget statement of 17 March a review of the paymentand adjudication provisions in the Housing Grants Construction andRegeneration Act 1996. The specific object of the review is to identifywhether, and if so, what amendments should be made to tackleunreasonable payments delays throughout the construction supply chain.

The DTI has subsequently appointed Sir Michael Latham, whose reportten years ago led directly to the Construction Act, to chair the review. Areview group has been set up to assist Sir Michael and it will be made upof representatives from the industry's umbrella bodies - including SECGroup, of which the Association is a prominent member. The Associationintends to play its full part in this.

The review is a timely acknowledgement that despite the improvementsintroduced in the Construction Act, particularly adjudication, paymentremains problematical for members. This came across loud and clear in asurvey of members in which the Association participated last autumn.

The overwhelming response – both from Association members and fromthose of SEC Group colleagues - was that serious payment problems stillexist and need to be addressed. Some of the problems identified were:

Widespread use of pay-when-certified clauses and other conditionalpayment provisions;

Increasing use of pay-when-paid provisions on the insolvency of athird party payer

Lengthening payment periods;

Widespread failure to issue payment notices in accordance with thelegislation;

Lengthy periods between the due and final dates for payment.

As part of the original group that pressed for the passing of the Act inimplementation of Sir Michael’s original review and in view of its longrepresentation on the Construction Umbrella Bodies’ Adjudication TaskGroup set up by previous Construction Minister, Nick Raynsford, theAssociation is particularly pleased to have the opportunity to play a fullpart in the new review to ensure that its members’ views are properlyrepresented.

Security of PaymentThe Association is currently involved in a number of activities with the aimof improving payment security for members. The campaign to ensure thatbetter payment practices are adopted with regard to SMEs has not abated– for instance, the campaign to ensure that start of payment is related tostart of contract rather than the arbitrary choice of start of work on site asis frequently currently the case.

Furthermore, recent insolvencies in the construction industry –particularly the collapse of Ballast UK – have highlighted the risks faced bythe supply chain in the face of insolvencies upstream. Problems areparticularly acute with regards to retentions – on which the Association hasa long history of campaigning.

In association with its colleagues on SEC Group, the Association will betaking these and other matters forward. Most Association members areSMEs, and these actions also help the implementation of recommendationsset out in the Better Regulation Task Force report on improving access bySMEs to public sector contracts.

Attempts to ensure payment protection include a new and exciting jointtask group with the Construction Confederation to seek common groundin the attempts to make retentions unnecessary.

Information FlowAn intractable difficulty over the years has been the amount and nature ofinformation required to enable Association members to work effectivelyand efficiently, and BCSA has long sought to address this with its consultantcolleagues. No one person these days can fully grasp all the complexitiesof the various different sectors of a highly technical industry, as theconstruction industry now is. It is important that the skills and specialistknowledge of steelwork contractors are used to their fullest extent and theAssociation is currently involved in several projects to improve thesituation, as well as researching the position in other countries. TheAssociation also hopes to take part in a study being carried out by BSRIAon design liability on behalf of the Specialist Engineering Alliance.

InsuranceThe Association continues to further its members’ interests in the light ofthe huge rises in insurance premiums over the last few years. The markethas stabilised somewhat, but still presents problems particularly for smallermembers. There is concern that properly constituted responsiblecompanies that carry out proper risk assessments and seek to ensure thesafety of their staff and all those on site are not given credit in the form oflower premium rates. To this end, BCSA is – among other things – indiscussion with ABI, via the Steel Construction Certification Scheme.

Publications and TrainingOver the last year, several contributions have been made to theConstruction Press, including a number of articles in ‘Construction Law’and New Steel Construction, as well as the discussion on procurementappearing in the steel buildings book. A very successful seminar oncommon contractual issues was held with Cyril Sweett plc last October atthe National Motorcycle Museum – the Museum continued open forseminars despite the catastrophic fire that destroyed its exhibition halls!The Association is also supporting SEC Group in its efforts to promoteintegration of the supply chain and make new procurement methodsaccessible for SMEs, in particular by supporting the seminars it is holdingaround the country on this topic.

Liaison with Other GroupsOn the commercial side, the Association continues to liaise very fruitfullywith other organisations and groups. Over the past years, it has arrangedfor members to have access to free advice on various contractual andcommercial matters with Cyril Sweett, the Engineering ConstructionIndustry Association, MacRoberts solicitors and Croners. As well as therepresentation already mentioned above, BCSA represents steelworkcontractors’ views to the Liability Panel run by the Construction IndustryCouncil and upon the SEC Group, and hopes to continue its long-standinglinks with the Association of Consulting Engineers.

Technical IssuesTechnical issues, process-related issues and the detailed technicalneeds and concerns of BCSA member companies are addressedthrough BCSA’s Process & Technical (P&T) Committee, or throughworking groups reporting to the P&T Committee. The maincommittee and these working groups have discussed a wide range ofissues raised by member companies, and have dealt with topics ofsignificant importance to steel construction as a whole, where thestrength and influence of the Association is greater than that ofindividual member companies.

The working groups, consisting of head office staff andrepresentatives from member companies, comprise:

Bridgework Conference

National Structural Steelwork Specification Drafting Group

Health & Safety Group

Galvanizing Specification Group

Connections Group - input to the sector-wide group

Sustainability Group - input to the sector-wide group

The Process & Technical Committee has held four meetings duringthe past year, and the committee’s deliberations have embracedissues such as:

BS 5950 – Parts 1 & 2

Debate on BS 6399-2 Wind Loading, and the need for researchto marry the applied wind loading with the response providedby typical steel structures

EC3 (Conversion from ENV to EN) - influencing the process ofconversion, and developing a strategy for implementation andprovision of guidance and handbooks

Relationship between EC3/EC4 and British Standards

Health and Safety, embracing Skills Cards, CDM, good practiceguides, new ‘Work at Height’ Regulations and other ECDirectives and UK legislation (eg noise and vibration)

National Structural Steelwork Specification and Commentary(developing plans for a future 5th Edition)

Disproportionate Collapse and the Proposed Revisions to theBuilding Regulations

Fire

Galvanizing – development of best practice guidance andspecification requirements

In November 2003, a major conference and exhibition on "Steel Buildings" was held at The Brewery in London with over 350delegates, ten speakers and 25 exhibitors. The BCSA’scomprehensive 260-page publication of the same title, was launchedat the Conference.

Bridgework Conference This Group comprises member companies specialising in steelworkfor bridges, with representatives from Corus Group plc and frominvited ‘bridge-owning’ clients (such as the Highways Agency), and itprovides a forum for discussion of those particular issues facingbridge steelwork contractors. The promotion of the Register ofQualified Steelwork Contractors for Bridgeworks has, for example,been one of the many topics addressed during the past year.

Health & SafetyDealing with H&S issues, and providing guidance and support toBCSA member companies has demanded continuing high priorityduring this past year; major topics being addressed include:

Promotion of the ‘Safe Site Handover Certificate’ – now readilyaccepted by the majority of principal contractors

Ongoing discussions with HSE on safety during site erection ofprimary steelwork and decking, and on vibration and noiseregulations

Maintaining a working relationship with the Major ContractorsGroup

Working with CSCS in the further development of ‘steelworkerector’ and ‘steelwork fabricator’ skills cards, embracingmeasurement of competence and H&S knowledge and experience– these are being extended to cover placing and fixing of steeldecking

Development, with Metskill and Derby Training College, ofnew-entrant NVQ courses to complement the CSCS card skills

Drafting of a family of best practice guidance documentscovering method statements/risk assessments and the erectionof single storey buildings, multi-storey buildings, decking andbridges

Increasing emphasis on Occupational Health and the manyseparate issues contained under that banner – meetings havebeen held with HSE on this topic of growing importance

Employment, as from May 2004, of a new BCSA member ofstaff focused entirely on Health and Safety.

UK Codes, Standards & EurocodesThe steel construction industry has been actively represented duringthis past year on the committees responsible for formulating Britishand European codes and standards, in order to shape and influencethe drafting of new codes and the maintenance of existing ones.

In this past year, a further six parts of EC3 (the steel designEurocode) have progressed beyond the ‘informal vote’ stage to theeditorial process (to final versions in English, French and Germanlanguages). The first five parts of EC3 have been submitted to theEuropean Standards Committee, formally accepted and will bepublished during the second half of 2004. The final few steel parts ofthe EC3 family of documents are following in the wake, and all buttwo have now been through the informal voting stage.

The continuing work on the implementation of these documents isnow of paramount importance, and BCSA is fulfilling its own role inworking with others (Corus, Steel Construction Institute, BritishStandards Institution, the Institutions of Civil Engineers andStructural Engineers and the European Convention for

Constructional Steelwork) towards the development of guidancedocuments, handbooks, worked examples and software.

BCSA continues to be represented on many BSI and Europeantechnical committees, and strives to maintain practical UK influenceon the ‘standards’ processes; this representation is provided by BCSAHead Office staff and individuals from member companies.

LiaisonBCSA maintains close liaison with other organisations associatedwith the constructional steelwork industry in the UK, such as CorusGroup plc, the Steel Construction Institute, and the Association ofConsulting Engineers. A good rapport has been established withGovernment Departments and Agencies, including the HighwaysAgency, the Department of Trade and Industry and the Office of theDeputy Prime Minister. In Europe, BCSA is the UK’s representativebody on the European Convention for Constructional Steelwork.

Information DisseminationDissemination of relevant and important technical information anddevelopments is achieved through publications, presentations,reporting to BCSA regional meetings, a weekly post-bag tomembers, "New Steel Construction" and courses and seminars.BCSA staff and member company representatives continue to lectureon ‘external’ courses to promote the greater adoption of steelconstruction and an understanding of technical issues relating to steeldesign, fabrication and erection.

Advisory ServicesFinally, the ‘external’ face of BCSA to the industry is often in theform of technical advice and support; this is available to membercompanies, clients, specifiers, designers and contractors alike.Response to specific queries is given, where possible, by BCSA staff,but where further assistance is necessary alternative sources ofinformation are recommended, such as the complementary advisoryservices run by Corus and the Steel Construction Institute.

RecruitmentWhile approximately 75% of the output of the UK constructionalsteelwork is produced by BCSA members, there are a number ofnon-member companies not yet enjoying the benefits ofmembership; it is hoped to recruit these into membership during thecoming year.

Industry StatisticsThe Association regularly collects authoritative statistics frommember companies to establish price and delivery trends throughoutthe industry. Statistics are also collected for Cancellation andDaywork Charges, and on State of Trade.

PromotionThe Association is expanding its promotion and market developmentactivities and, as part of this increased activity, a new MarketingExecutive was appointed to the staff in May.

BCSA’s website, www.SteelConstruction.org, is used regularly byspecifiers to find information about member companies and steelconstruction related topics, and is being developed continually andenhanced. The site has a powerful search mechanism that can finddetailed information about companies.

A new extensive advertising campaign has been implemented, jointlywith Corus, to promote the competitive benefits of steelconstruction.

A joint BCSA/Corus supplement, "Steel Construction News", isinserted into "The Structural Engineer" magazine. Each issue isdistributed to 26,000 structural designers.

The Association’s magazine, "New Steel Construction", is publishedjointly with SCI and is mailed to 7,000 named individuals bi-monthly.

The eighth edition of the Directory for Specifiers and Buyers waspublished in the spring of 2004 and has been direct mailed to 9,000clients, architects, engineers etc. The aim of the Directory is topromote the capabilities of member companies and also theadvantages of steel in construction.

The Association continues to produce its popular BCSA desk diary,which incorporates the National Structural Steelwork Specificationfor Building Construction, safe load tables, etc.

Steel Buildings ConferenceA successful one-day Conference on Steel Buildings was held at TheBrewery in London in November 2003 which was attended by over350 delegates. A new publication, "Steel Buildings" was published atthe same time. The next Steel Conference is planned for November2005.

Structural Steel Design AwardsThe Structural Steel Design Awards Scheme is sponsored jointly byBCSA, Corus and the Steel Construction Institute, and isadministered by the Association. The objectives of the Scheme are torecognise the high standards of structural and architectural designattainable in the use of steel and its potential in terms of efficiency,cost effectiveness, aesthetics and innovation.

Mr David Upton, Chairman of the Association of ConsultingEngineers, kindly presented the 2004 Awards at a lunch ceremonyheld on 22 June at The Savoy Hotel.

The Register of

Qualified Steelwork Contractors

The Register of Qualified Steelwork Contractors is

more than just a list of companies as each

applicant company must qualify by being audited

annually by specialist auditors who check the

company’s financial resources, technical resources

and track record. The result is two criteria:

categorisation of the company in terms of the

work it can execute technically

classification of the company in terms of the

maximum size of contract it should handle

BridgeworksCompanies wishing to be registered in the Bridgework Categorybut who do not possess suitably complete bridgework experiencemay be registered as unclassified companies. Unclassified companiescannot be awarded subcategories that classify their capabilities.Such companies will need to fulfil all the requirements set outbelow, but where the rules are marked ** they may use contracts ofcomparable complexity for steelwork other than bridgework.

In order to be registered in the Bridgework Category, a companymust have a minimum turnover in steelwork for bridges** of £1

million in the most recent year or alternatively per annum ifaveraged over the last three years.

The company must present references for completed supply anderect contracts that include at least six bridgework** contractsundertaken over the last five years, of which two must each exceed£100,000 contract value completed within the last three years.

The company's track record and the company's systems, existingfacilities and employed personnel will be used to establish its capability.

Bridgeworks SchemeBased on evidence from the company's resources and portfolio of experience, the Subcategories that can be awarded are as follows:

Applicants may be registered in one or more sub-category

Notes Contracts which are primarily steelwork but which may include associated works. The steelwork contract value for which a company ispre-qualified under the Scheme is intended to give guidance on the size of steelwork contract that can be undertaken; where a project lastslonger than a year, the value is the proportion of the steelwork contract to be undertaken within a 12 month period.Where an asterisk (*) appears against any company’s classification number, this indicates that the assets required for this classification levelare those of the parent company.

REGISTRATION SCHEME

SCCS Scheme Services

The Steel Construction Certification Scheme (SCCS) continues to provide management

systems certification services specific to the steel construction industry. These services

concentrate on the certification and subsequent compliance monitoring of quality,

environmental and occupational health & safety certification systems. All certification

assessments and surveillance monitoring visits are conducted by qualified auditors

experienced in the various design, procurement, materials control, fabrication and erection

management activities relevant to steelwork contracting.

UKAS AssessmentThe Scheme was itself subjected to a full re-assessment of the QualityManagement Systems certification system by the United KingdomAccreditation Service in January 2004. This process included a formalassessment of the Scheme’s documentation, a sample review ofindividual certified organisation files and the witnessing of asurveillance visit to one of the certified organisations. All the findingsrecorded by UKAS were relevant to SCCS system documentation andsurveillance records all of which have been addressed.

QualitySCCS currently provides an ongoing certification monitoring servicefor 25 separate steelwork contracting companies.

Most of the Scheme’s work during the latter part of 2003 was devotedto expediting and assessing the transition of all existing clients’ qualitymanagement systems in accordance with the requirements of ISO9001:2000. During the preparation for that process, some companiesfailed to grasp the opportunity to reduce the documentation formingtheir QMS and have retained all the formal system elements requiredby ISO 9001:1994. These companies have simply added new systemelements to address the requirements of ISO 9001:2000 to theirexisting documentation and have therefore increased theirmanagement system compliance requirements. SCCS will continueto monitor each company’s compliance with the published qualitymanagement system even though some of the retained, formalprocedures are no longer formal requirements. It is anticipatedhowever that SCCS will be able to assist these companies to reviewtheir over complicated management systems, via the six monthlysurveillance audits and to gradually decrease any unnecessary systemelements.

EnvironmentalSCCS received formal confirmation of UKAS accreditation for thisservice following completion of the QMS certification documentationin January 2004.

Companies with EMS certificates issued by SCCS have all successfullycompleted the Scheme’s surveillance monitoring programme and twohave successfully completed their three yearly reassessments.

Health and SafetySCCS has exerted most of its recent marketing effort to thepromotion of the Health & Safety management systems certificationservice that was launched during 2003. There is a growing interest inthis increasingly important certification service and several companieshave recently requested details of SCCS certification requirements inanticipation of application for formal assessment.

In addition to the publication of its own OH&S Management SystemsGuidance Note (GN606), SCCS has submitted formal responses to aquestionnaire published by the Association of British Insurers (ABI).This questionnaire was published in the ABI’s ‘Initiative for theAssessment of Trade Associations Health & Safety Schemes’. Thisprovides a facility for SCCS to gain formal recognition andendorsement of the OH&S certification service. Once this isachieved, the ABI has stated that ‘firms participating in specific healthand safety schemes will be able to demonstrate their responsibleattitude to health and safety risks, with potential benefits in the formof improved market access and terms.’ All BCSA members will beadvised when ABI endorsement of this SCCS service is confirmed sothat those gaining SCCS certification can seek improvements in therelevant insurance premiums.

Integrated Management SystemsA few of the more progressive companies certified by SCCS havealready integrated their quality, environmental and occupationalhealth & safety management systems. By doing so, they have reducedthe formal documentation required for separate systems and benefitfrom the lack of ongoing systems management duplications. SCCS hasitself generated a single management system that addresses all therequirements relevant to the certification of quality, environmentaland health & safety systems.

Companies adopting the integrated management system approach arelikely to benefit from an overall reduction in systems documentation,internal auditing and management time plus a likely reduction in thenumber of SCCS surveillance visits.

NOTES1. Commercial and Public tonnages were not split until 1990.2. Commercial tonnage was also sub-divided into new categories - Leisure and Other - from 1990.3. Other Infrastructure tonnage was not identified separately before 1994.4. Imports tonnage was not identified separately until 1989 - prior to that it was included within the individual sector totals.5. Health and Education tonnages include both publicly and privately funded schemes.6. The 2004 - 2006 figures are forecasts.7. The figures are in thousands of tonnes.8. Re-analysis of the tonnages since the early 1990s has resulted in increases in some sectors and, correspondingly, in the totals for UK consumption and production.
