Case studies
Goedgevonden
Protech Khuthele has been involved in seven core contracts at Goedgevonden, an opencast coal mine situated near
Ogies in Mpumalanga, operated by Xstrata Coal SA. Protech Khuthele’s combined contracts value is in excess of
R210 million. The contracts started in August 2007 and were completed by November 2009, these included access
roads, new provincial roads, the upgrade of existing haul roads and the development of bridges, a retaining dam,
a run of mine (ROM) platform and overland pipelines as well as topsoil & overburden stripping. The
Goedgevonden contracts illustrate the success of the group’s effective partnership model and its ability to deliver
services according to evolving client specifications and contract timeframes. Protech Khuthele’s involvement with
Goedgevonden began as a R28 million road diversion contract, where six kilometres of new provincial road were
constructed to free up coal resources for the mine occupied by the existing provincial road. The contract value then
increased to R79 million as the contract was expanded with additional works and design changes due to the highly
saturated ground conditions. The group’s fast-track ability and flexibility to adapt to changes was
central to its ability to meet the changing scope of the contract and to accelerate timeframes according to the
client’s request.
Handover dates of the new road were re-negotiated and a phased handover with accelerated dates was
implemented.
Protech Khuthele’s success in handing over both phases ahead of the client’s accelerated schedule meant that
Xstrata enjoyed early access to parts of the plant that fell on critical delivery paths. This included the construction of
a railway line and the freeing up of reserves, thereby minimising production impact.
The mine road upgrades were done without affecting the smooth running of the mine’s operations and within very
strict safety guidelines. Earthworks for a storm water retaining dam of 20 million litres were done during the
above-average summer rainfall conditions, and this, together with the installation of an overland pipeline, further
added to the value of work awarded. The ROM platform was done in partnership with the client, resulting in a
unique construction solution and further time saving for the client. Throughout these construction activities, the
topsoil stripping above the coal reserves continued. Protech Khuthele stripped on average 250 000 tons of topsoil
per month, placing this on stockpile for re-use during the rehabilitation of the mine. Protech Khuthele’s world-
leading impact compaction technology added further cost and time savings for the client.

Case studies
Waterkloof Airforce Base
The Waterkloof Airforce Base reconstruction is a R730 million public works contract. Protech Khuthele
is part of the Runway Contractors Joint Venture. The group is involved in the construction of the 3,4
kilometre runway, as well as taxiways, up to sub-base level (i.e. all earthworks related construction
activities).
The contract commenced in July 2008 and is scheduled to conclude at the end of 2010.
Protech Khuthele’s expertise in materials management has been an integral part of the contract. It is
utilising both crushing and screening to recycle as much existing material as possible and to modify
this material for optimal re-use, a Protech Khuthele speciality. The group’s top quality fleet enabled
the use of crushing and screening operations to aid in this materials modification process.
The group was instrumental in construction methodology changes that resulted in further significant
time saving. In addition, the use of Protech Khuthele’s world-leading impact compaction technology
again proved to be central to its ability to further accelerate timeframes.
The group also developed an innovative and alternative method of constructing the upper layer
works, leading to even more time savings on the contract in accordance with the client’s request for
accelerated delivery. Based on the group’s innovation, the contract was accelerated by two months for
an earlier completion date of the main runway.

Case studies
Gautrain
Protech Khuthele is responsible for the earthworks for the Bombela Consortium Gautrain Rapid Railway Link between
Modderfontein Road and the OR Tambo International Airport.
The contract value is around R90 million. This contract is an example of the group’s ability to work under very
challenging conditions, with much poorer soil quality than anticipated and a higher than expected rainfall, leading to
an increase in the value and scope of work by 30% following the start of the contract. Protech Khuthele is never the
less still within the client’s required timeframe due to its proven ability of fast-tracking contracts.
The contract, scheduled to be concluded in mid 2009, involves 5,5 kilometres of earthworks for the rail formation.
The contract is also a good example of the group’s ability to perform a wide range of services within the civil
engineering industry. Key components of the contract involve 275 000 m³ of cut and fill with a zero tolerance for
settlement of material, 65 000 linear metres of ducting for services, 5 200 m of sub-soil drainage, 6 750 m² of
reinforced earth walling and 90 000 m³ of backfilling to viaducts, as well as 22 000 m³ of layer works and over 10
kilometres of concrete lined channels and open drains.
Significant sub-surface drainage and earthworks were required, with the terrain offering challenges such as rock
blasting in restricted areas, sub-surface water, saturated soil conditions and material generally unsuitable for re-use.
Hauling material from as far as 23 kilometres in busy traffic and the construction of a rail formation over busy roads
also made the earthworks more challenging.
The Protech Khuthele impact compaction technology was again critical to achieving time savings on bulk fills.
Gautrain is an example of the group’s ability to work under very challenging conditions, with much
poorer soil quality than anticipated and a higher than expected rainfall.

SAFETY, HEALTH, ENVIRONMENT AND QUALITY
Safety
Protech Khuthele implemented a formal safety, health and environmental (SHE) policy in 2002. This policy is updated on an annual basis.
A formal SHEC System was implemented in 2006. Up to 2010 this system was reviewed on an annual basis to ensure compliance. The system is
based on ISO 9001:2000, ISO 14001:2004 and OHSAS 18001:2007
Furthermore, as Protech Khuthele’s mining sector work increased strongly, the group is in the process of generating a separate SHEC system
focused on specific mining requirements, this system has been implemented on various mining projects with great success.
We have received various awards from different clients for exceptional safety performance as a company and some individuals also received
awards for their performance.
The group’s SHEQ system is mandatory on all sites and is used to enforce no harm to our employees, contractors, environment and communities
affected by our operations.
During the 2010 financial year, we pleasingly beat our goal by achieving a LTIFR of 0,41. To date we are still on 0 Fatalities and 0 Disabling
Injuries
Since inception the group has had an exceptional safety record, we continue with our excellent track record.
