Introduction:3D printingSince its inception, it has been mostly used in industrial manufacturing,Medical treatmentwithaviationaerospaceAnd other fields. In recent years,3D printingHouses, bridges, etc.architectureProducts have also appeared one after another. So,3D printingWhat do you think of a playground?
The Czech architectural association Stavební spořitelna Česká spořitelna will build the first one in Prague3D printingParkour playground. The playground will be built in Prague 11 and will be jointly developed by the private and public sectors and academia. According to Czech media reports, the country’s construction industry is currently facing many difficulties, including labor shortages, lack of automation, and rising construction material costs.

Libor Vošicky, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Česká spořitelna in the Czech Republic, explained: “There are many playgrounds for preschoolers, but older children don’t have many choices, so we decided to use3D printingTechnology to build a parkour playground.

Parkour
Parkour originated in France in the late 1980s. It is a free form of running and is very popular among young people. Parkour venues are usually chosen in an urban environment.

First in Prague3D printingParkour playground
Parkour stadiums usually require a series of upright obstacles, and these structures must be suitable for spinning and jumping. In addition, complex geometric shapes can further stimulate the interest of athletes.According to Daniel Samek, the architect of the playground, the concrete3D printingThe technology is very suitable for this application because it can easily create unique and unconventional shapes.

It is reported that the area of the playground will reach 14 x 12m, and is paved with shock-absorbing rubber flooring to ensure the safety of users. Each obstacle is printed using recycled concrete materials provided by Master Builders Solutions CZ and Skanska. In addition, the playground company Work4out will be responsible for the earthwork and certification of the playground. The playground is expected to open in September 2021.
