In which city was the world's first 12-meter long 3D-printed steel pedestrian bridge installed over a canal?
In 2021, Amsterdam became the site of the world's first fully functional 3D-printed stainless steel bridge. The structure was designed by MX3D and installed over the Oudezijds Achterburgwal canal. This project demonstrated the potential of robotic 3D printing technology in civil engineering and urban infrastructure, allowing for complex, organic designs that traditional manufacturing methods could not easily achieve.
