Potentials. 3D printing of concrete definitely shows high potential, but the best way to benefit from it still needs to be explored by the industry. The potentials could be classified at three hierarchic levels of size, if for discussion only. The largest level is in situ 3D printing of entire buildings (see Figure 1).
According to Mohd Tobi [12], the use of 3D printing in housing construction can help by saving up to 35% of the total house price in the UK. In regards to the sustainable impact, 3D printing
Other methods for 3D printing include powder binding and additive welding. Powder binding is 3D printing within a basin of powder, solidifying powder layer-by-layer to create the desired object. Additive welding has been demonstrated by printing a full-scale, functioning metal bridge in Amsterdam. Benefits and challenges. Faster construction
Show abstract. 3D concrete printing technology (3DCPT) is a growing field of research, in part motivated by attempts to improve current concrete fabricating methods. Compared with traditional
Construction methods: a) traditional construction with bricks and b) construction 3D printing [31]. According to the ISO/ASTM 52900-15 Standard Terminology for Additive Manufacturing [ 32 ] AM, also known as 3DP, is the “process of joining materials to make parts from 3D model data, usually layer upon layer, as opposed to subtractive
With 3D printing, if you can dream it, you can make it. You can create any shape or angle, opening the door to new creative designs. Cons of 3D Printing Higher Costs. For many, the cost of purchasing or even renting the necessary equipment for 3D printing remains a challenge to make adoption more widespread. Construction Labor Shortages
In this context, 3D printing technology appears to be the key solution to building and construction problems. 3DP enables engineers to build complex structures using computer aided design in a short time without the need of formwork or extra-workers [1]. 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is widely utilized in many industries
3D printing has revolutionized various industries by enabling the production of complex designs and shapes. Recently, the potential of new materials in 3D printing has led to an exponential increase in the technology’s applications. However, despite these advancements, the technology still faces significant challenges, including high costs, low printing speeds, limited part sizes, and
Thus, understanding how to adapt 3D printing successfully is still one of the challenging issues facing the construction industry. Although the innovative literature provides clues about potentially relevant factors for construction 3D printing technology adaptation, research has still not specifically addressed this topic.
