3D Printing: A study of the intralayer bonding strength of extrusion-based additively manufactured polymers and its relevance for the design of structural elements

The additively manufacturing industry is emerging rather quickly and has find its way within numerous fields of expertise. Slowly the building industry is adopting these fabrication methods as well, but there are still a lot of challenges. Especially the bonds within the layered structure are demand more research. Numerous researches have...

Facade Elements for 3DCP: Structural viability of facade elements manufactured by 3D Concrete Printing

The novel technique of 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) shows great potential in the reduction of labor and material as well as the fabrication of freeform design. Different research institutions and companies recognize this potential and have set up printers to further investigate and develop the technique all over the world. Some pioneering...
