Case Study: Paris Skate Park
Project
Paris Skate Park
Client
SNP Giordanengo
Year
2008
Location
Paris, France
Task
-
SNP Giordanengo was looking to partner with a specialist solutions provider to produce
specific precast shapes of a complex nature, and provide guidance to fix the items
on site until the flooring coatings were applied.
-
Fosroc was contracted to provide a multi-faceted solution, which required a strong
combination of precast knowledge and grout/ anchor fixings on the building site
Constructive Solution
-
Fosroc designed an effective solution to solve specific problems, such as the optimization
of surfaces for skateboard run up and speed, the assembly of several precast items
with various shapes and different finishing coatings, strong mechanical resistance
needs, and the workability retention of concretes
-
Several key products formed part of the solution including;
-
High performance self compacting concrete, for a blemish-free final appearance and a completely
smooth surface
-
Fosroc Moudol Eco V11 demoulding oil and resin floor coating
Fosroc Nitoflor FC 140, for an optimum quality of surface
-
Fosroc Structuro
311 superplasticiser linked to Fosroc Hydromax, a waterproofing and efflorescence
control admixture enabling a very fluid consistency with very good durability and
a low consumption of water
-
Fosroc Nitobond E220 epoxy resin
for the assembly of complex curved shapes and metallic parts during the design of the different moulds
Value to Client
-
Paris’ Ministry of Sport and Culture were delighted with the overall success
of the project in terms of the quality of work and on-time delivery
-
This public project potentially posed some significant challenges and was an important
project for the municipality as it is Europe’s largest and most compIex skate
park structure at 3500m² area
