http://www.arabstoday.net/environment.html Although it's a few weeks yet before the official start of the 30th bauma (April 15-21), International Trade Fair for Construction Machinery, Building Material Machines, Mining Machines, Construction Vehicles and Construction Equipment, already the open-air site at the exhibition center in Munich looks like a giant building site. Demand for space at bauma has once again risen, and to cater for it, the exhibition space set aside for bauma this year has been increased once more, by 15,000 square meters as compared to the last event, to a grand total of 570,000 square meters. The extra space is being opened up in the northwestern part of the site, where a temporary hall, D1, is now available as well as additional outdoor space.
