03. images from all over the world: a. a chariot race, Rome image as to Kaiser Neros times: hunt through the streets of Rome Roman charioteer in a race for the victory and prize of the eternal city.
For 2,000 years, Rome saw no such drama. On the occasion of a funfair is attempted modern riders in the ancient sport and Ben Hur had his pleasure. -Now the goals to.
The winner beamed into truly antique size.

In part, they had 50 years on the tires. After the show, a reliability test - any of the driver is doing his ambition to reach the goal in the famous seaside resort of Brighton.
And they, these old kilometers eaters are reliable! 123, experienced the ride - without mishap, without accident, without nerve wear.
Yes, good stuff keeps level.

04. a doctrine of the time: New construction methods the emergency of time makes inventive - also in the construction industry. A which procedure, the so-called bulk construction, is recently applied in Weinheim an der Bergstraße.
When the construction of the bulk, the debris on the spot is processed into a concrete-like mass and poured into steel lattice formwork. Modular style, wall to wall and ceiling coating for ceiling coating is made.
New machines carry the Flüssigen and raw materials in continuous flow up to the respective jobs. The advantages of bulk construction are: significant cost reduction, saving scarce raw materials, such as wood and cement, and extensive mechanization.
The bulk of construction is considered to be a significant new factor for the reconstruction of residential areas in the larger cities. A novel design for roofs has been tested in Munich. The roof structure is No more wooden beams, but light angle iron and sheet metal Struts the supporting beams fall away completely. Filigree construction, allows the construction of flexible fireproof roofs at quickest pace.
And finally, a completely new way to build chimneys.
In Hamburg, one completely composed a chimney on the ground. The 60-ton colossus is now established in a course of a 10-ton crane.
A rope winds slowly up the chimney. After two hours, it has succeeded.
New ideas and new ways of working - the technology moves with the times, and time suggests the technique practical.
