ENTWICKLUNGSTENDENZEN IM ERD- UND TIESBAU

The author surveys the development of mechanized earthworks and underground construction the world over and describes new equipment shown at the 1972 Hannover Trade Fair. Emphasis is placed not on the constructional details, but on the possible uses of the equipment and its economic efficiency, together with its operational safety and ease of maintenance, transport and assembly.
