Duracrete - Sprayed Concrete - Refractory Engineers

Exhibition Park Skate Park, Newcastle upon Tyne

Name of Employer:	Newcastle City Council

Start Date:	October 2003
Completion Date:	January 2004

Brief Description:	Construction of a skate park facility using conventional cast concrete and spray applied concrete.

Comments:	Probably the best skate park design and construction that there has been in the UK. It has a big open street course which if you get there on a quiet day is such a laugh and so well built. The bowls are so good it is about time a British Council had the balls to build concrete over five feet deep. This is the way forward for our skate parks – big deep and well built.
