AI and automation will significantly impact productivity and jobs. While AI can boost productivity through automation of routine tasks, it may also displace many jobs. To manage this transition and ensure the benefits of AI are widely shared, governments and companies should [1] establish ethical oversight of AI systems, [2] invest profits from AI into retraining displaced workers, and [3] explore options like universal basic income to support those impacted by job disruption. Overall, AI has the potential to dramatically increase global GDP if its development and applications are properly managed.

1) Global oil demand remains robust and is projected to increase by 1.4 mb/d in 2019, with China and India accounting for almost half of the growth. Renewables accounted for almost half of the growth in electricity generation in 2017 and are projected to meet a higher share of future growth.
2) Natural gas demand is growing rapidly thanks to its flexibility and ability to reduce environmental problems. China has become the largest natural gas importer and U.S. production and LNG exports are rising dramatically. Industry is now the leading driver of gas demand growth.
3) The U.S. accounts for almost 45% of the growth in global natural gas production and 75% of growth in LNG exports between 2017
Dr Fatih Birol, Executive Director of the International Energy Agency, spoke at the EU-US Business to Business Energy Forum in Brussels on May 2, 2019, about the global LNG trade.
Dr. Birol discusses the changing global energy context and future outlook. Key points include: (1) renewable energy supplied half of global electricity demand growth in 2016 and nuclear capacity reached its highest level since 1993; (2) universal energy access remains a challenge with 1.2 billion lacking electricity and 2.7 billion lacking clean cooking; (3) US shale oil production has increased significantly at lower costs, altering global oil markets; and (4) a growing role for liquefied natural gas and efficiency measures have helped reduce energy demand growth, but more progress is still needed on technologies like carbon capture to meet climate targets.
The document discusses the future of trucks and their implications for energy and the environment. It notes that trucks are currently the second largest source of global oil demand and account for about half of diesel demand. Trucks also contribute significantly to emissions. The document presents the IEA's vision to modernize truck transport through improving efficiency with fuel economy standards, optimizing logistics, and supporting alternative fuels. This could reduce truck fuel demand and emissions substantially by 2050 while still supporting economic growth.

Construction is a complex process that involves planning, managing infrastructure projects, considering environmental and safety factors. It makes up a significant portion of a country's economy, generating employment and growth in other sectors. The construction industry in India faces challenges like rising costs and interest rates, as well as delays in projects. However, increased government spending on infrastructure is expected to drive growth in the sector over the next five years.
The construction industry is seeing steady growth despite of the labor shortage for skilled construction workers. While growth looks good now, not solving for the labor challenges could be a problem that slows the industry down.

- The global economy is suffering due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with expectations of a significant downturn in economic activity in Q2 2020 and a potential global recession. The construction industry has been designated as essential in most areas, allowing work to continue despite disruptions.
- The residential construction sector was poised for continued growth entering 2020 but will now see declining housing starts, new orders, and demand due to social distancing and the economic downturn. Low mortgage rates and inventory should initially support home prices, but job losses could increase delinquencies over time.
- Nonresidential construction will also be disrupted, particularly sectors like oil/gas, commercial, office, lodging and transportation. Public spending had already softened
The document outlines UDIA National's plan to help the Australian housing and construction industry bounce back from COVID-19 through targeted policy initiatives. It discusses how the industry has been impacted by COVID-19, with inquiries, sales, and construction falling significantly. It argues that without intervention, further job losses are likely as the industry employs over 750,000 people directly and indirectly. The plan calls for immediate federal stimulus to kickstart the housing market and flow through to economic recovery. It acknowledges actions already taken but argues more is needed to move from economic stabilization to recovery.
This document provides an overview of the Indian industry and infrastructure sectors. It discusses key industrial production and growth statistics. It outlines various government initiatives to boost the industrial sector, including improvements to ease of doing business, the Startup India program, and foreign direct investment policies. It also examines sector-specific issues and performance in industries like steel, gems and jewelry, leather, MSMEs, textiles, and others. Finally, it analyzes the importance of infrastructure development for the economy and provides details on sectors like roads, railways, aviation, shipping, telecom, power, housing, and smart cities initiatives.

STRUCTURAL STEEL38
www.steeltimesint.com May/June 2017
“OVERALL the US construction sector is
likely to grow at a moderate, but unsteady,
pace,” says Ken Simonson, chief economist
for the General Contractors of America
(GCA). He notes that while put in place
construction spending, as reported by the
US Commerce Department, was up 4% in
2016 and is likely to increase another 2-7%
this year, the market is also mired with more
uncertainty than previously anticipated,
including whether the new administration
will be able to get Congress to approve
its promised $1 trillion infrastructure
investment plan and how they propose to
pay for it.
Due to the nature of recent projects, of
those that are anticipated going forward,
as well as the influence of non-metal
related factors, the steels used by the US
construction sector, such as structural
shapes, reinforcing bar (rebar), plate
and pipe, are actually getting a bigger
boost than overall construction numbers
would indicate, Christopher Plummer,
managing director of Metal Strategies
Inc., West Chester, Pa., points out. He
says that his company’s steel construction
usage index, which is a weighted index
of actual steel product consumption by
the US construction sector, indicates that
after declining 2.1% in 2015, steel use
for non-residential and public works, or
infrastructure, construction applications
was actually up 5.7% last year and is
forecast to grow by another 4.3% this year.
This compares with projections of only a
1.9% increase in value put in place for non-
residential construction and a 1.7% decline
for public works.
It, however, is much more in line with
projections for building construction on
a square footage basis, which, according
to John Cross, vice president of the
American Institute of Steel Construction
(AISC), is expected to see a 5% increase in
2017 overall, resulting in a 6% growth in
consumption for structural steel in building
applications.
Cross observes that while dollars spent
for US buildings construction have already
returned to 2006-07 peak levels, that isn’t
the case when looking at it on a square
footage basis, largely given that so much
construction is being done in cities where
construction costs are higher. While up
considerably from the 700 million square
foot trough in 2010, the current rate is only
1.2 billion square feet, still only 67% of the
1.8 billion square foot peak.
While up from last year, it still won’t
be a boom year either for the domestic
construction industry or for those steel
produc.

This document discusses causes of cost overrun in construction projects in India. It first provides background on the size and importance of the construction industry in India. It then discusses common issues like delays, cost overruns, and deficiencies in planning, procurement and management that contribute to problems. The researcher conducted a literature review and identified major causes of cost overrun according to previous studies. These include inadequate project formulation, planning, contract management, and project management during execution. The researcher designed a study using questionnaires to identify and rank important causes of cost overrun from the perspective of clients, consultants, and contractors. The results would help determine which causes require the most attention.
The document analyzes the cement industry in India from 2015-2020. It identifies key drivers for growth such as increasing construction activity and infrastructure development in emerging economies, rising domestic demand, and greater government investment. The industry is forecast to have strong production and value growth over the period. Opportunities for cement companies include the growing precast concrete market and developing the underserved northeast region of India.

the next few years. Businesses are also expanding.
The Major Gains
According to a November 2017 survey from the AI Group, construction is on the upswing. The
forecasted value of major construction projects in 2018 is 7.1 per cent per annum. That’s a huge jump
from -2.1 per cent per annum in 2016. It will slow down in 2019, but the decline will only be slight at
6.4 per cent.
A big part of its gains comes from the government’s initiative to spend more on roads and railways. It is
setting aside $70 billion until 2021 for infrastructure. The amount will come from a variety of sources.
These include investments in equity, revenues, grants, and loans.
Huge transport related projects include the National Rail Program and inland rail ‒ with the
government earmarking $10 billion for the former.
3. Commercial builders will also be active with construction growing by almost 2 per cent this year. It will
pick up further in 2019. By then, the commercial construction sector will have grown by 9.4 per cent.
This growth is essential. The analysts see a dramatic slowdown in residential construction. The survey
predicted the growth of multi-level apartments will decrease to 15.4 per cent in 2019. From 2015 to
2016, it rose to 16.4 per cent.
Dampening the Wins
The construction industry has been recession-free for more than 10 years. But certain factors can offset
the gains. One of these is the rate of fatality and injury in the industry.
The Australian government highlights the declining fatality and injury rates among the workers. But,
despite stringent health and safety at work regulations, construction is still one of the three high-risk
sectors. For example, 27 per cent of construction deaths were falls.
As tall buildings become a fixture in the country, contractors need to invest in reliable equipment and
machinery. Proper safety and care for workers enhances reputation ‒ an important edge in an industry
that needs to keep its staff to meet future demands.
