Since it was invented in the 1980s, 3D printing has moved from the laboratory to the factory, the home and even outer space.

Shimizu introduces a spray-based 3D concrete printing system for reinforced structures using robotics and simulation.

Since its invention in the 1980s, 3D printing has steadily moved from research labs ...

An interdisciplinary team of Cornell researchers is working on a method to apply 3D printing in oceanic environments.

The 3D-printed concrete barracks requires a crew of only three trained workers during construction, though for continuous printing, about three shifts of crews are required to avoid burnout. Photo by ...

Imagine concrete extruded from a computer-controlled nozzle, rather like an enormous pastry icer “building” a layer cake. This is how 3D concrete printing (3DCP) works. It’s real and it has the ...

Early experiments with graphene predicted that it could increase the strength of concrete by up to 40%. 3D concrete printing definitely makes the list of developing technologies that are changing the ...

Purdue University recently published a research article about the use of 3D-printed concrete in offshore wind turbines: Wind off the coasts of the U.S. could be used to generate more than double the ...

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 ...
