The world's first 3D-printed parkour park is unveiled in Prague
The world’s first 3D-printed parkour park was unveiled in Prague 11, a municipal district in Prague, Czech Republic. The project was a joint endeavor between building society Stavební spořitelna České spořitelny (Buřinka), 3Deposition, and the Prague 11 municipality. It was designed by architect and vice chairman of the Czech Parkour Association Daniel Samek. The park spans a diameter of 14 meters (46 feet) and contains 14 3D-printed elements connected by steel pipes. The elements were printed on a frame printer using recycled concrete, known as rebetong, by 3Deposition, a company founded by researchers from the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at Brno University of Technology. The printing, which took 10 hours, required 12.5 tons of special concrete mix from Master Builders Solutions CZ. Aside from parkour training, the elements of the playground can also be used as an outdoor gym and are intended to be used by everyone starting at ten years old. As noted by Buřinka, the advant...
