As a disruptive technology, 3D printing has been behind many positive transformations in major industries, from dental and medical to aerospace and far beyond; however, the construction industry is worth trillions annually and globally—with industrialists rarely missing an opportunity to begin using technology that could save money, time, and offer better performance in many cases too.

 .

The construction industry is still evolving with 3D printing, although many impressive projects have been completed due to ongoing progress with hardware, software, and a variety of materials and concrete composites . Some researchers consider progress overall to be slow though, with too many limitations still present in terms of printers.

 .

Now, ETH Zurich researchers have created a 3D printing system called Fast Complexity. This is a team with extensive experience in modern construction design and the use of molds . Fast Complexity combines 3D printing and casting of concrete In an effort […]
