Abstract:

In 1995, there have been produced more than 9 million tons big-sized floor slabs and wall elements as concrete precast parts up to a value of 2 billions Deutsch Marks [1]. In 1979 it was only 3 million tons and a value of 500 million Deutsch Marks, respectively [2]. That means, the produced quantity was increased by 300 percent in 16 years or nearly 20 percent per year. The need for concrete precast parts increases in times of a difficult market. Competitive prices, high quality, intelligent solutions in products and reliable delivery times are guarantees for success in the market and short term construction periods compared with construction on site. The development of production technologies and machinery in the last 15 years is the basis of such a success.
