the Don river. At the end <strong>of</strong> 2009, <strong>Putzmeister</strong><br />

was awarded a contract to provide the equipment<br />

for concrete distribution at the reactor<br />

block: Five placing <strong>boom</strong>s with a horizontal<br />

reach <strong>of</strong> 50 m (fi tted on Manitowoc/Potain lattice<br />

towers up 50 m tall), two BSA 2110 HP-D<br />

stationary concrete pumps and a 300 m<br />
