Foreword

Statistics on structural steelwork have been collated here from the Europeancountries members of ECCS. Though incomplete, they give a fair andconsistent view of the evolution of the production of structural steelconstruction over the past 17 years, with sometimes a forecast on the yearto come.

Who has supplied the statistics?

The statistics have been supplied by members of the European Conventionfor Constructional Steelwork, known more commonly as ECCS. All membershave been invited to submit statistics of their national production of

structural steelwork for the year 2008 together with forecast figures for theyears 2009 and 2010. In total 13 countries have responded and their returnsare published in this document which we, at ECCS, trust will be found usefulin your particular country. On occasions, the forecast figures from earlieryears have been included in the pan-European tables, for completeness andcomparison purposes.

What is ECCS?

ECCS is the international representative organisation for steel construction.Membership comprises Full Members, Associate Members, and InternationalMembers, complemented by the European Structural Steel PromotionalGroup.

The Full Members are the National Associations representing the steelconstruction industry in twenty European countries. The Associate Membersrepresent the national Independant Promotion Organizations or TechnicalCenters in six European countries. The International Members are from threeoverseas and non-European countries. The European Structural SteelPromotional Group (ESSPG) includes the section, plate and tubemanufacturers ArcelorMittal, Corus, Dilligen Hütte, Peiner Träger, Salzgitter,

Thyssen Krupp Stahlbau, with Marcegaglia and Duferco as SupportingMembers.

This provides ECCS with a wide platform for recognising the state of trade inthe construction industry over a very wide area.

Constructional steelwork is after all literally the backbone of much of Europe’s building industry. Constructional steelwork provides the supportingframework for many of Europe’s major structures – massive suspension

bridges and the more traditional road and rail bridges, power stations, andtransmission towers, high rise office blocks and countless industrial,commercial and agricultural buildings not forgetting the many prestigious

and historic structures. These structures are mainly fabricated from hot andcold rolled sections and steel plate, supplied by steel producers throughout

Europe.

What statistics have been supplied?

The Bulletin lists wherever possible the end use of steel per country bymarket sectors. It also supplies forecasts for production in these sectors.Wherever possible market share data by sector is recorded. In addition theBulletin includes wherever possible historic and forecast macroeconomicdata relevant to the European constructional steelwork industry. ThisBulletin has been published for 17 years now, and we have included, where

data has been available, the total production by country for every year sincepublication began.

How have the statistics been collected?

Some statistics are collected by Members and their own returns, some bysteel- makers, some from national statistical bodies, and others in a varietyof ways. The difficulty with this is the lack of consistency both in headings,and in what is included and what is not. It was hoped that the introduction afew years ago of Prodcom, a pan-European common statistical programme,that at last Europe would have a uniform and consistent statistical return for

structural steelwork. Nevertheless the blandness of the Prodcom statisticalheadings in particular suggests it will not improve until more preciseheadings are introduced.

What can the statistics be best used for?

We, in the ECCS, have found that in some countries there is seen a high level of demand for steelwork in a particular market sector whereas in other countries the market penetration is relatively low. Sometimes it is not easy to see why this should be so. These statistics published in this Bulletin can therefore help to highlight these anomalies and opportunities and it is difficult to see how elsewe could make these comparisons. We as a pan-European steelwork industry are able through this knowledge to help guide those who so wish, to try to increase their own market levels, to meet with those who have been moresuccessful. By first recognizing who are the market leaders we can then all try to learn from them ways how best to increase and improve our own usage of steelwork. This is in the best interests of all who work in steel throughout Europe. We at ECCS hope that this Bulletin in some small way helps in this endeavour.

Traditional a high percentage of export-rate to European Eastern countries and worldwiderecessions would reduce the production of buildings not dependent use steel or wood orconcrete.

National we don’t know activities of our country for promotion buildings, bridges, powerstations etc. in this moment.

So our forecast have to be careful.

The escalation of the global financial turmoil last autumn has reinforced the slowdown in theDanish and the international economy that started already in 2007. Practically all OECD-countries had negative growth in the fourth quarter of 2008, and that will probably be the casealso in the first quarter of 2009.

Employment is expected to fall both this year and next, mainly due to the reduction inproduction that has already taken place.Public finances are expected to weaken significantly. The fiscal surplus of 3.6 per cent of GDP in 2008 is forecast to turn into a deficit of 3.3 per cent of GDP in 2010.

2008 was the second best year ever in for the steel construction industry in Denmark. Thefabrication was the first three quarters even higher compared with the record year 2007.

Since third quarter 2008 a slowdown has reached the market in general which also which willhave an impact in the steel fabrication industry. The forecast for 2009 can be even worsedepending on the global crises which have an effect in countries.

Since 2007 10 % has lost their jobs in the construction industry sector. It is foreseen thatanother 10 to 15 % will loose their jobs during 2009. This will of course also have someinfluence the market for steel construction.

In 2009, French economic growth will fall following the international economic decrease.

Even if unemployment rate in 2008 was better than in 2007, it could quickly raise up for 2009due to a break concerning the dynamic trend in the construction and services sectors. Privateconsumption will also decline despite inflation slowdown.

No revival of French economic activity is expected before end of 2010 and a light recession ispossible for 2009.

In 2008, the total output was quite equal to 2007 (-0,24%). Unfortunately, it will not be thesame in 2009 with a fall expected to 7%.

Buildings market (industrial, commercial and others non residential) will decrease.

Same trend is expected for agricultural sector despite good results for silo. The best resultsexpected concern refurbishment activities and also other civil engineering specially for

bridges market which will be well oriented thanks to Government investment support plan.

August 2009 - 49/132



In 2008, the construction activity was pulled not by industrial buildings but by othersconstructions (refurbishment, silo and great metal frame constructions for example).

We surely expect a slowdown trend for all 2009 year for buildings development and activitiesdue to the impact of the global credit crunch on investments with a lack of new projects andbesides the loss of consumer confidence.

In 2008 the annual production Tonnage with app. 2.285.000 Tonnes exceeded a level whichnobody really expected. And after years the profit margin did improve finally even under thecircumstances that the costs of the rolled steel reached a level of more than 1.000 €/to exworks. But according to the situation national and international the production figures willtrop as forecasted for 2009 down to 1.620.000 Tons and will be stable in 2010 by app.1.600.000 tons. And a decrease of the profit margin is expected as well.

Constructional Steelwork activity. Please comment where necessary on outstanding export deliveries.)

There was a significant reduction in construction work during the second half of 2008. Thisslowdown was even more marked in 2009, and there are no signs of recovery within the endof the year.

The forecasts for 2010 are relatively positive, but it is difficult to quantify the situation at thepresent time, as the predictions to a certain extent merely reflect a hope for positive change.

The total tonnage of steel in buildings is based on total measured square meters with steel inthe main bearing system. This reflects approx. the development of tonnage.

In spite of a 9 % decrease in total square meters, many of our members have increased theirsteel tonnage in 2008. So it was indeed worthwhile to be a member in 2008 ☺

Construction industry is the worst hit due to global crisis. Although Turkey did not have amortgage crisis the construction companies were caught with high stocks of finishedapartments that they had to discount in order to sell. This of course slowed down all newconstruction. The industrial and commercial investments were all stopped due to unclearfinancial situation of the banks and related credit unavailability.

In 2008 there were marked differences in the performance of the main sectors. Housingactivity was down sharply in both the public (-8%) and private (-19%) sectors. Growth in theinfrastructure sector accelerated to over 15% taking the outturn back to its level in 2004,driven largely by transport infrastructure activity and a significant expansion in the gas sub-sector.

The public non-residential sector grew by a similar 15%, driven by education construction

activity and the Olympic build programme. In contrast industrial activity was over 19% downon 2007 with lower demand providing little incentive for manufacturers factory investmentand warehouse construction declining from its high peak in 2007. Speculative development
