Abstract The most commonly used processes, machines and equipment for the manufacture of concrete pipes are critically reviewed from the occupational safety point of view: coreless moulding, vibration process, vibration-moulding process, radial-compression process, roller-head process, centrifugal process and other special processes for pre-stressed concrete pipes; manufacture of steel reinforcement; processing of finished pipes; slinging; testing. Accidents are illustrated by photographs and practical examples, and suitable safety measures are indicated.
