The medieval irrigation system of the Lankheet Estate was 3D print<\/a>ed to scale by Dutch company Vertico for a fantastic education<\/a>al outdoor art<\/a>work in the form of a concrete 3D print<\/a>ed water playground.<\/p>\n

As part<\/a> of a large project of Waterschap Rijn en IJssel on the Landgoed Lankheet, the team at Vertico was asked to concrete 3D print<\/a> a work of art<\/a>. Centuries-old irrigation systems have been reconstructed on the estate in order to exhibit the power of traditional methods.<\/p>\n

To make these techniques, which run over the large estate, more insightful, the company printed a scale model with working locks. These serve an education<\/a>al purpose, in which primary schools and interested part<\/a>ies can admire the innovativeness of our ancestors themselves, and can actively turn the water around.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

For this project, no wooden molds were needed to cast the many meandering rivers, but we were able to make optimal use of the freedom of form of 3D print<\/a>ing<\/a> to realize the complicated shapes. The Lankheet Estate has been (re)discovering traditional water management techniques and using them on medieval irrigation fields. Vertico was asked to create the water playground, a scale model of these innovative irrigation methods in order to showcase their effectiveness. Now, visitors can learn about the way in which these irrigations systems work while actively part<\/a>icipating in simulating them. They can then see these systems in action full scale across the estate.\u200b<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In order to produce this object, Vertico and client Eric Brinkmann of the Lankheet Estate planned out the models on a smaller scale. Designer Iman Hadzhivalcheva then converted these drawings to CAD and to robot code.<\/p>\n
