Additive Technologies in Construction: Shifting the Paradigm of Building
Vaněk, Vojtěch ; Chomová, Štěpánka ; Pěnčík, Jan
Additive manufacturing is gaining importance in the building construction industry. With 3D printers for concrete or other materials, there have been significant advances in the material properties and technical excellence of the printed structures, which has enabled their huge expansion in the construction market. If properly embraced, additive manufacturing in the construction industry can bring about fundamental changes in structural design, crating safer, more efficient, economical, environmentally friendly and aesthetically attractive building elements and structures. Another application in the construction industry is in space construction. Here it has a major role in the use of autonomous site control on distant planes, which can be first tested, used and developed on Earth.
