Eastern Europe<br />
With the expansion of the European Union and the<br />
constant increase in trade with the evolving nations of<br />
Eastern Europe, a growing significance is being<br />
attached to the involvement of <strong>ThyssenKrupp</strong> GfT<br />
<strong>Bautechnik</strong> in these markets. In Romania, for<br />
example, the German experts were already able to<br />
actively contribute their expertise in flood protection.<br />
In Bulgaria, <strong>ThyssenKrupp</strong> GfT <strong>Bautechnik</strong> is<br />
participating in the development of the Danube and<br />
Black Sea ports.<br />
Croatia<br />
Staff from the Eastern Export section of<br />
<strong>ThyssenKrupp</strong> GfT <strong>Bautechnik</strong> participated in the<br />
"Graditeljstva" at Zagreb in September 2006. On<br />
an exhibition area of over 80,000 square metres,<br />
exhibitors from over 40 countries presented their<br />
latest developments and offerings to 100,000<br />
trade visitors. <strong>ThyssenKrupp</strong> GfT <strong>Bautechnik</strong> had<br />
the MS-8 HFB V excavator-mounted accessory<br />
device and the MS-16 HF and MS-16 HF vibrators<br />
on display. This proved to be a great success,<br />
Lidija Karaula, Export Manager, secured two<br />
substantial orders during the course of the<br />
exhibition for building and fitting-out.<br />
At Metković in Southern Croatia (Dalmatia), the<br />
construction of a 4-floor apartment block with 22<br />
apartments covering an area of 900 square metres<br />
is planned. As planning permission would not be<br />
granted without a minimum number of parking<br />
spaces, the commissioning builder MGA decided<br />
to build an underground garage.<br />
However, it is not customary to build below ground<br />
in this region, because of the high ground water<br />
table. <strong>ThyssenKrupp</strong> GfT <strong>Bautechnik</strong> experts<br />
managed to convince responsible Managing Director<br />
Zeljko Glavinic to use sheet piling. The 80 tonnes of<br />
sheet piling required were driven in with the MS-4<br />
HFB excavator-mounted accessory device.<br />
Important for <strong>ThyssenKrupp</strong> GfT <strong>Bautechnik</strong> is the<br />
ground breaking nature of this project as a<br />
reference building site, since the demand for sheet<br />
piling for underground construction in Dalmatia<br />
and Bosnia-Herzegovina is estimated to be<br />
considerable.<br />
To secure their second order, <strong>ThyssenKrupp</strong> GfT<br />
<strong>Bautechnik</strong> staff stayed in the capital of Zagreb. Due<br />
to the brisk building trade and activity in the fastgrowing<br />
metropolis, home to 25% of the total<br />
population of Croatia, the Zitnjak canal is to be filled<br />
in. This will provide new building areas and existing<br />
plots of land will increase significantly in value. The<br />
order for this was secured by the Georad company,<br />
which did not, however, have experience in the<br />
sheet piling area. Great confidence was placed in<br />
cooperation with <strong>ThyssenKrupp</strong> GfT <strong>Bautechnik</strong><br />
experts, as 600 tonnes of sheet piling were driven in<br />
with a MS-16 HFV vibrator. Much to the delight of<br />
Georad Managing Directors Ljubo Sicaja and Boze<br />
Ivancic, who were convinced of the values of this<br />
new technology. �<br />
Sheet piles and vibrators where delivered by<br />
<strong>ThyssenKrupp</strong> GfT <strong>Bautechnik</strong> for a building site<br />
in Croatia.
