The Trepka Prefabricated Concrete showcases its products on-site, with factory walls constructed by the company, displaying various finishes and coloured concrete samples.
The seminar provides knowledge about the practice-oriented processing of materials and technologies. This will be achieved through visits to production and workshops, as well as construction building sites. Students will attend short seminars with selected companies after completing specific basic grounding lectures. Contact with producers and processors is essential for gaining practical construction knowledge.
