Mall design “FLAWED”>> Engineering issues brought up at commission of inquiryJONATHAN ERASMUS

JAY Singh — the man widely be-lieved to be behind the construc-tion of an illegal mall in Tongaat

that collapsed — will be the last per-son to give evidence at a special com-mission convened to investigate thedisaster.Structural engineering consultantRob Young, hired by Singh to investi-

gatethecollapse,toldthecommissionof inquiryonFriday that thedesignofthe mall was “materially flawed”.ThecommissionwassetupbytheDe-partment of Labour to investigatewhat led to the collapse of the semi-constructed R300 million mall on 19November 2013. Days earlier, a Dur-banHighCourtorderwasobtainedbythe eThekwini Metro ordering con-struction to be halted for failing to

have building permission. The orderwas ignored. Two people were killedand 29 injured when a three-storeysection of the mall pancaked while,according to eyewitnesses, the sup-ports were being removed.Young, who was the lead engineer attheKingShakaInternationalAirport,saidthemannerinwhichthemallcol-lapsed was unusual.“Wehaveconductedadesktopanaly-sis of the drawing and found defectsthat could have led to the collapse.Usually in a collapse one panel goes

and the others follow but here therewas a trigger and the slab swivelledand came down in one uniformpiece.” He told the commission thatfor a thorough and safe investigationon location, it would take at least sixweeksandwouldincludeacontrolleddemolition of the large concrete slablying on the ground. CommissionerPhumudzo Maphala said if all wentaccording to plan, he will be able tomake his findings in August withSingh interrogated in early June.“The last person I am likely to cross

examine is Singh once we have seenall the findings and reports as he hasbeen mentioned on numerous occa-sions throughout the inquiry.”Also on Friday at the Durban HighCourt, mall developer RectangleProperty Investments, runbySingh’ssonRaviJagadasan,haditscontemptof court hearing postponed. The citywants the mall demolished.The Weekly has learned that Singhhas no intention of demolishing theentire mall and plans on keeping ar-eas that have not collapsed.

A MEMBER of Reaction UnitSouth Africa (RUSA) escapeddeath after coming under

heavy gunfire from eight armedrobbers on Friday last week.

According to RUSA head PremBalram eight suspects armed withAK47's and 9mm pistols stormedthe Brookdale Shell garage in Phoe-nix robbing the store of cash, air-time and cigarettes.

The suspects then allegedly hi-jacked a vehicle after assaulting apatron and opened fire on a RUSAofficer who was at the garage.

One person was treated for inju-ries and transported to hospital.

Balram said that the reactionofficer had arrived at the garage afew minutes prior to the robberyand had conducted an inspectionfor the night security guard.

“The officer then purchased acan of energy drink and returned tohis vehicle when the suspects sur-rounded the garage and enteredthe store.

“The video footage shows thesuspects enter the busy shop, drawpistols and point the AK47's at cus-tomers while two suspects armedwith AK47's remain outside the ga-rage.”

Balram said the reaction officer,

in a fully marked RUSA vehicle, no-ticed the robbery in progress andreversed his vehicle, getting out totake cover when the suspectsopened fire on him.

“In the CCTV video footage theofficer is seen reaching for his ra-dio while running for cover and hethen returns fire with his 9mm pis-tols.

“It appeared that one of the sus-pects firearm had jammed.”

Balram added that during theshooting a Toyota Corolla drove in-to the garage and was shot at ap-proximately 10 times.

“The driver was the then pulledout of the vehicle assaulted and isvehicle was taken.”

An undisclosed amount of cash,airtime and cigarettes were stolenand the suspects fled in a white carresembling a Golf 5 or Peugot, a

pital after he suffered facial inju-ries. In February last year twomembers of RUSA were shot withAK47's after they responded to arobbery in progress at a BP Garagein Verulam.

Deon Chinnian and Ruba Reddywere attacked by six AK47 wieldinggunmen. Their response vehicleswere shot a total of 15 times andone officer was shot fivetimes.

Part of the officers hand wasblown off and later had to be am-putated.

Balram said that both officersreturned to work after recoveringfrom their injuries, adding that allreaction officers will now be issuedwith rifles and other high calibreweapons to defend themselveswhen attacked.

Police are investigating.

“It is through God that such an incredible things hashappened to me. I am very thankful to the doctors andstaff at the hospital as well as my family and friendsfor their continuous prayer and support.”

Asked what advice she would give other cancer pa­tients, she said “hope is the key”.

“Since realising I had this disease I have remainedpositive. There can be a lot of anxiety when one is facingsuch mortality. But with the support of so many goodpeople at the hospital as well as the church, family andfriends, I have overcome this.”

Housing project launched>> Heavily debated housing development underway according to ward councillor

KAVEEL SINGH

THE heavily debated Sunhills -Emona housing project ap-pears to finally be underway

after a number of contractors metwithward 61 councillor to tender forthe project on Friday last week.

The project is set to build 1 082houses for residents in the area.

The Departments of Public Works

and Education have also come oneboard to build a primary school.Thedevelopmentwill also see a com-munity hall, crèche and two worshipsites earmarked for the com-munity.

According to ward councillor Mi-chaelAbrahamoneof the reasons forthedelay of theprojectwas themeth-ane gas pipeline which passes fromBelvedere along side the boundary of

Emona.“Although this pipeline poses no

threat to the community, the latestlegislation passed by our Parliamentdictates that certain protective mea-sures must be in place before anybuilding operations begin.”

The contractors who have attend-ed the sitemeeting and briefing haveuntil the 7 March to return their ten-derdocuments.Thereafter,adjudica-tion of the tenders will begin.

Abraham said a public meeting

will be called to discuss the list thatcontains the names of all the benefi-ciaries who will qualify for houses.Formore information please contactMichael Abraham on 072 6294384.

Theseniormanagerofhousing for thenorth Oscar Kunene with his technicalteam visited the site and addressed con-tractors about the tender process.

OVERFISHING can severely impact on our eco­system if left unchecked and unmonitored.Many fisherman in KZN practically live of the

sea as it is a source of income in these tough economictimes.In some families fishing has been passed on from gen­eration to generation and is considered a heritage. .Like all the resources in our country, our marine re­sources also need to be protected.Hence, the Marine Living Resources and AmendmentBill has been promulgated and ready to be passed asearly as next month.This bill has limitations on bag limit which is restrictedto ten. Fisherman would have designated areaswhere they will be allowed to fish with the possibilityof catching nothing as fish follow the current. Pre­scribed quotas will have a devastating effect on sub­sistence fisherman who are reliant on their catchesto put food on the table and sell surplus fish to payoff other expenses incurred.The challenge is to find middle ground in this situationwhere there can be a compromise and a win­win situ­ation can prevail. If government wants this bill to beeffective, there has to be a buy in and a consultativeprocess with the major role players who are the fisher­man. No groups rights must take precedence over an­other in the interests of fairness and giving credibilityto the process. How can a situation emanate wherebywehaveChinese,JapaneseandEuropeantrawlersus­ing nets, suck up all the fish while the ordinary subsis­

tence fisherman has so many impedi­ments such as costly licences and specialbait that has to be used imposed onthem?The challenge lies in the ability to sustainthe fishing stock thereby making surethat no fish is netted or fished to a levelwhere there survival will be in jeopardy.

There has to be a well balanced and finetuning process with all stakeholders ac­knowledging the continued sustain­ability of the fishing stock well into thefuture. A total and unequivocal com­mitment is required in this regard, any­thing less will be a travesty.

Overfishing to our detriment

WHEN a baby begins taking their first steps,they stumble and usually fall over after theirfirst step or two.

However, this does not stop them fromstanding up and trying again. Each attemptat walking sends feedback to their brain,telling their bodies what works and whatdoesn’t. To hold up their arms to increase

balance, or to keep their heads up. It takestime for their brains to learn about balance,walking up stairs or down a hill. Until oneday, they are able to walk with no consciousthought of it at all.

When is it that you became so fearful oftaking a new step? Do you remember howfearless you were when you began walking?When did your feedback become negative?As a parent, spouse, business owner or man­ager, are you unknowingly teaching peopleto fear failure? If we were naturally fearful,none of us would be walking, nobody woulddrive cars, fly aeroplanes, have friends, fallin love, create children. But somewherealong our journey through life, we learneda behaviour that we named ‘fear.’ Just likeyou learned how to walk and drive a car, youlearned how to be fearful. Fear of failure isnot real. How do you know you will fail, whenit is impossible to fail.

Just as a child learns to walk and receivesfeedback, our adult brains can be re­trained

to do the same. If our first attempt doesn’tgo as planned, analyse the feedback re­ceived and make adjustments until you findthe right equilibrium. Did you know that Edi­son famously invented 1,000 light bulbs be­fore creating one that worked? Did youknow Walt Disney was fired by a newspapereditor because he “lacked imagination andhad no good ideas.” And did you know thatAlbert Einstein didn’t speak until age fourand didn’t read until age seven. His teacherslabelled him “slow” and “mentally handi­capped.”

But all of these people, and many more,used feedback they received and had un­wavering belief in their ability to overcometheir challenges along the way.

LIVING a healthy lifestyle doesn't mean hours of training at the gym and eatingonly salad leaves. It's about making easy­to­manage healthy choices in yourday­to­day living. Living a healthy lifestyle doesn't mean hours of training atthe gym and eating only salad leaves. It's about making easy­to­managehealthy choices in your day­to­day living. Says Dr Craig Nossel, head of Wellnessat Discovery Vitality: "The trick to making your lifestyle healthier is to makesmall healthy changes every day, such as taking the stairs instead of the lifts,increasing your fruit by one, drinking one extra glass of water or quitting smok­ing."So let's start with the fundamental basics of healthy living: regularexercise and healthy lifestyle choices:I like to move it, move it!

Do as King Julian does and move your body. Not just once now­and­then>> but every day whenever you can. Although a set exercise session is greatto work into your daily routine, you can burn kilojoules in other small ways, suchas:>> Walking to someone else's desk rather than sending an e­mail, ­ Parkingfurthest from the building and walking in, or ­ Taking the stairs more often.>>Doing house cleaning or gardening ­ Taking the dog for a walk or cyclingwith the kids instead of watching TVWe all stand together

We spend our lives sitting ­ at our desks, in front of the TV, in a meetingor on the phone. New research is emerging highlighting the potential risk tohealth from all our sitting behaviour. So break your sitting time by standingfor five minutes and reap the health benefits.

Every little bit counts and it all adds up to burning more calories.If you're overweight, making small changes in your daily exercise routine

can benefit your health. In fact one study has found that just a 10% drop inweight helped overweight people to reduce their blood pressure and improvetheir wellbeing.Eating healthily

When it comes to healthy eating, there is an overwhelming array of theories,diet books and online information about what to eat ­ which is often conflicting.Although the research is still ongoing and developing, what the experts all agreeon is that our diets are too high in sugar, our portions are too big and we shouldeat a variety of whole natural foods.Sweet enough

From sugary drinks to breakfast cereal, it's hard to get away from sugaryfoods. Often the sugar is hidden in canned goods or pre­packaged foods, oreven in foods we think are healthy for us, such as fruit juice. The average persontakes in about 22 teaspoons of added sugar each day. According to the AmericanHeart Association the daily target should be no more than six level teaspoonsfor women, and nine for men­­that's for both food and beverages combined.

The easiest way to limit your sugar intake with one small change is to cutout sugary fizzy drinks. This alone can help you to lose or maintain a healthyweight, which in turn will reduce your risk of heart disease, obesity and diabetes.Portion distortion

Our food and drinks portion sizes have dramatically increased over the past30 years. In the 1950's a chip packet was 28g from a take­away restaurant ­today it's 154g ­ and that's not even the supersize, which is a whopping 196g!

Portion size increases doesn't only include the take­away portions, but pack­aging of goods in the supermarket, dinner plates and glasses in restaurantsand even fridge sizes!

SOMEWHAT ironically, the Proteas havestretched their lead atop the latest ICCworld rankings for Test teams. The reasonthe Proteas now boast a massive 21­pointlead atop the standings, despite crashingto a 281­run defeat in the first Test againstAustralia at SuperSport Park in Centurion,

is two­fold. Firstly, changes are only calcu­lated after series' are completed, and sec­ondly, thanks to New Zealand's series winover second­placed India.

India dropped five points after losingtheir two­Test series 1­0 against the BlackCaps. The Proteas currently sit on 133

points, followed by India on 112 and Austra­lia on 111.

The good news for SA fans is that nomatter what the final Test series result isagainst Australia, the Proteas will remainNo 1 when all is said and done. A 3­0 winfor Australia will see the visitors close the

gap to seven points (124­117), while a 2­0margin will see a gap of 126­116. Should thecurrent 1­0 scoreline remain, the finalstandings will read 127­115. If Australia win2­1, the margin will be 127­115.

However, should the Proteas stage acomeback and win the series 2­1, they'd

would remain on 133 points, but Australiawould slip to 110 ­ and stay third in the rank­ings. A 1­1 drawn series would result in a130­113 advantage for the hosts.
