Civil engineering construction covers the roads, bridges, pipelines and water infrastructure that buildings and communities depend on. Ironveld holds a CIDB Grade 9 CE registration, which allows us to tender for public civil works of any value.
Our civil division delivers roadworks, interchanges, bulk water and sewer lines, stormwater systems and treatment works. We own most of our earthmoving plant, which keeps programmes in our control.
We work for metropolitan and district municipalities, provincial roads authorities and private developers who need bulk services for new developments.
We price the works, method statements and programme for the employer.
We set up site, traffic accommodation, community liaison and the health and safety file.
Our own plant and crews carry out the works with daily quality checks.

Civil engineering works are almost always priced from a schedule of quantities prepared by the employer’s engineer, so the price depends on the measured work, site conditions and the contract programme. Ground conditions, traffic accommodation, rock excavation and service relocations are the largest cost variables. For private bulk services we can provide budget pricing from preliminary layouts within ten working days.
