This paper fills a gap in the literature as it addresses a new aspect of 3D printing, which is risk, and also discusses and categorizes the benefits, challenges, and risks of3D printing in construction. This paper provides a critical review of the related literature on 3D printing in construction. The paper discusses and evaluates the different 3D printing techniques in construction. The paper
The widespread adoption of large-scale 3D printing (LS3DP) depends on innovations in processes, materials, printers and software control. LS3DP has the potential to be used for the automated
Challenges arise in 3D printing for construction also because there simply are not that many materials available; also, due to the limitations of many 3D printers, printing on the larger scale can
The introduction of digital manufacturing techniques, such as 3D printing applied to concrete material, opens up new perspectives on the way in which buildings are designed. Research on this theme is thriving and there is a high rate of innovation related to concrete. At the same time, the first life-size constructions made from printed concrete are emerging from the ground. This book presents
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 Show abstract. 3D concrete printing technology (3DCPT) is a growing field of research, in part motivated by attempts to improve current concrete fabricating methods.
