3D Printed Concrete
MATAdditive manufacturing techniques using concrete and related materials for architectural and structural applications.
3D printed concrete represents an emerging construction method that uses robotic systems to deposit material layer by layer, enabling complex geometries and reduced material waste. The technology spans from experimental pavilions to functional urban infrastructure, with applications in residential, civic, and landscape projects.
The community explores mechanical performance of printed materials, open-source printer development, multi-robotic construction systems for alternative materials like soil masonry, and completed buildings demonstrating seismic resilience and architectural innovation across different geographic contexts.
