When the time for implementation has expired, the directive has direct effect and can be referred to within the member states.

This is a booklet with information and inspiration about precast retaining walls. The three chapters contain information about concrete as a material, how the surface of the wall can be altered, and a chapter with ideas for a new precast wall.
