About Böck Bau
Hans Böck GmbH & Co. KG is a construction company based in Sonthofen in the Upper Allgäu region that has been executing building construction, civil engineering and special civil engineering projects in southern Germany since 1948, i.e. for 80 years. At its own precast concrete plant, the company produces ready-to-install precast concrete parts such as hollow-core slabs, wall elements, balcony support slabs, light shafts, staircases, columns and special parts, manufactured on a circulation plant for precast slabs (since 1993) with retrofitting for wall elements (1996). The weather-independent prefabrication guarantees consistent quality, which is assured by an in-house laboratory and external monitoring by the Material Testing Institute for Construction (Structural Engineering Department) of the Technical University of Munich. Further business areas are special civil engineering with the patented Forster system shoring, ductile cast iron driven piles and rigid PVC sheet pile walls, engineering, industrial and residential construction, sewer and road construction, exterior facilities, transport and crane rental, as well as, as a certified waste management company, rubble processing and recycling. The company employs around 80 staff and, in its first five decades, was supplied mainly by the town of Sonthofen with public buildings.

Quality
Quality assurance of the precast concrete parts is carried out by an in-house laboratory as well as external monitoring by the Material Testing Institute for Construction, Structural Engineering Department, of the Technical University of Munich. Prefabrication at the plant guarantees consistently the same quality, independent of the weather.
