Although we've heard a lot about how 3D-printing concrete homes speeds up the construction process, you still have to wait up ...
When natural disaster strikes, a building’s survival often depends on how it’s built. Engineers at Carnegie Mellon University have created a fast, highly accurate simulator for spray-based concrete 3D ...
Researchers at Oregon State University have developed a quick-setting, environmentally friendly alternative to concrete they ...
In recent years, additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, has emerged as a sustainable method to solve construction challenges ...
Marines have used a specialized 3D concrete printer to print a 500-square-foot barracks room in just 40 hours. The innovative project created the world’s first continuous 3D-printed concrete barracks, ...
A new concrete is intended to make 3D printing houses more environmentally friendly. But this is not the only advantage over ...
The latest 3D printing application? Forming concrete. That’s according to a team at ETH Zurich who claims that construction with foam forms cuts concrete usage up to 70%. It also offers improved ...
We didn’t notice [Nikita]’s post about building a concrete 3D printer, a few months ago, but the idea seems sound: build a basic CNC XY axis and then add a mortar pump and hose to deposit concrete.
Marines at Camp Pendleton, Calif. have successfully 3D-printed a reinforced concrete bridge. The feat, which took place in December, is the first time in the U.S. or the Western hemisphere that a ...
Cementitious 3D construction printing (3DCP) or 3D concrete printing is a form of additive manufacturing that can fabricate custom objects from small components such as architectural furniture, or ...
Kairos Power and Oak Ridge National Laboratory tested the potential of AM and composites to enable fast, repeatable ...
Gizmodo’s 3D Printing Week, a collaborative project with GE that comes to a close this evening, would only be partially complete without a look at the use of animals as living 3D printers. They are ...
