The hunt for more sustainable concrete to replace the climate change driving force of Portland cement has hit a massive leap in progression. This progression comes in the form of a new type of ...

Concrete 3D printing reduces both time and cost by eliminating traditional formwork, the temporary mold for casting. Yet most ...

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 ...

“As soon as climate compatibility comes into play we have to look at mineral building materials. And this is where the really big CO2 potential savings can be increased.” says Andreas Trummer, expert ...

Using a special 3D printer called ACES, or Automated Construction of Expeditionary Structures, U.S. Marines from the 1st Marine Logistics Group, along with the Marine Corps Systems Command’s Advanced ...

New research addresses some of the technical issues that still need to be solved for 3D printed concrete to be strong enough for use in more free-form structures. Researchers found lobster-inspired ...

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, ...
