Stand And Deliver
Students engineer an elephant in under two weeks!

Artists can take years to plan and execute public art. Engineers at the Sirindhorn International Institute of Technology in Thailand needed just 10 days to bring this 3D printed life-size concrete elephant from design to installation. Inside is a topology-optimized steel frame based on an elephant's actual skeleton.
