TU/e has been one of the first players that decided to explore construction 3D printing in the Netherlands. What was the focus of the research at that time? In the very beginning, the focus was...

Early construction 3D printing development and research occurred in 1995. In the 2000s, the technology was already gaining momentum around the world. However, in Europe, professionals have started taking it seriously when the first...

It has always made sense to talk about lightweight parts in the automotive, the aerospace or the space industries but talking about lightness when it comes to the construction industry is quite new.   In...

S-Squared 3D Printers (SQ3D) aims to change the way the world built. The manufacturer is very happy to unveil its patent pending Autonomous Robotic Construction System, (ARCS). The large system can build projects that range from...

As explained before, one vertical industry where ceramic 3D printing is making great strides is the healthcare industry. Surprisingly, while implants constitute one of the largest use cases for technical ceramics, all of them...

Saint-Gobain Weber Beamix, a company known for its use of concrete 3D printing in the construction industry as well as numerous projects in the Netherlands, has added one more string to its bow: staircases...

ETH Zurich and Zaha Hadid Architects Computation and Design Group (ZHACODE), have worked in collaboration with incremental3D (in3D), for the development of a 3D printed concrete bridge. Named Striatus, the development of this project has...

Elysium has developed an advanced functionality to automatically extract piping and planar surfaces for building-information modeling (BIM) from scanners used by UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, aka drones) and MMS (Mobile Mapping Systems)—in addition to...

DSM and Rotterdam are currently collaborating for the design and construction of a new circular composite footbridge. The footbridge is expected to be installed in Rotterdam by the end of 2020, an innovative city...

Self-sensing allows for the monitoring of critical structures in various sectors including aerospace, construction & healthcare. Brightlands Materials Center, a Dutch research center, has recently leveraged Anisoprint Continuous Fiber 3D printing to produce composite parts with self-sensing functionality. A...
