The <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">3D print<\/a>ed FRP footbridge as a circular composite aligns with our city\u2019s ambitious sustainability targets to reduce carbon footprint and promote liveability and we are proud to be the first city to test, print and install it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/facfox-upload.oss-us-east-1.aliyuncs.com\/image\/2020\/11\/yQ32mq.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div style=\"    background-color: #eaeaea7a;    padding: 15px 30px;    overflow-wrap: break-word;    display: flex;    align-items: center;    border-radius: 4px;    box-shadow: -1px 4px 20px 0px #dedede;    margin-top: 1em;    margin-bottom: 1em;\">\n<div style=\"    flex: 1;    padding-right: 30px;\">\n<h4 style=\"    margin-bottom: 14px;\">Manufacturing on Demand<\/h4>\n<div style=\"    display: block;\">Fast turnaround, low cost, comprehensive optimized strategy\u2026 FacFox is your one-stop partner for product manufacturing!\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" style=\"    background-color: #0baee8;    color: white;    padding: 10px 20px;    border-radius: 4px;\"><i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fa-fw auxicon auxicon-cloud-upload\"><\/i> Get Quote<\/a><\/div>\n<p>The composite footbridge could provide a sustainable alternative for future bridge production in the city. \u201cWe see the use of composite bridges as a sm<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">art<\/a> solution to replacing our older constructions,\u201d added Said. \u201cWith more than 1000 bridges in Rotterdam, we are constantly looking to push the boundaries to develop the next generation of bridges which will be more sustainable and circular with lower maintenance and lifecycle costs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The initial prototype for the circular composite bridge was announced in 2019, and the upcoming structure will showcase the advancement of the project. The bridge itself will be <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/service\/3d-printing-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">3D print<\/a>ed from a DSM fiber reinforced thermoplastic called Arnite, which meets the city\u2019s strength and sustainability requirements.<\/p>\n<p>Patrick Duis, Senior Application Development Specialist Additive Manufacturing at DSM, said of the project: \u201cThe printed circular composite bridge enables the transition to a more sustainable and circular type of bridges with minimal wear and tear. Now that we have the new circular composite of recyclable source material along with the required performance properties available to us, we can st<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">art<\/a> taking the <a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/environment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">environment<\/a>-friendly design of the infrastructure to the next level.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The new structure will be built following the highest safety standards for FRP bridge design and will be supported by Rotterdam\u2019s infrastructure experts in composite bridges. There is also the potential to include sensors in the finished product to create a digital twin of the footbridge. These sensors could predict and optimize maintenance, to ensure the integrity and safety of the bridge while also helping to extend its lifespan. The completed footbridge is expected to be in use by the end of the year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRotterdam and the Netherlands are ahead of the curve in innovation in infrastructure, p<a href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/news\/topics\/art\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">art<\/a>icularly in the areas of sustainability and circularity,\u201d concluded Maurice Kardas, Business Development Manager at Royal HaskoningDHV. \u201cBy introducing circular composites into their bridge infrastructure, Rotterdam proves once again to be a city ahead of the game.
