The next project of PERI 3D Construction, the construction 3D printing division of PERI, has been revealed: the construction of a 3D printed football club facility and public building in Nordkirchen, Germany. Germany already hosts several 3D printed buildings, mainly built using COBOD 3D printing technology, a technology that PERI will also use as part of this project.
The COBOD BOD2 model has specifically been chosen for this task. It measures 25 meters (83 feet) long, 15 meters (50 feet) wide, and 10 meters (33 feet) high and will build the future SC Capelle football clubhouse on a usable floor space of approximately 330 m2 (3.550 SF). The estimated completion time using 3D printing technology is projected to be only approximately 140 hours.
The unique design for the building is the creative work of Steinhoff Architekten, an innovative architectural firm known for embracing forward-thinking construction methods. The clubhouse will be used by SC Capelle playing in the third division in Germany.
“This new project by PERI is a great example of how our printers can be used for more than just low-rise housing. The new 3D printed building will be the first ever 3D printed football clubhouse and also the first public building that has ever been 3D printed. On top of the recently finished printing of the world’s so far largest 3D printed building, a luxury horse staple in Florida of almost 1.000 m2 (10.100 SF), we are starting to see numerous examples of 3D printed non-residential buildings,” Henrik Lund-Nielsen, Founder and General Manager of COBOD International, enthuses.
Mayor of Nordkirchen, Dietmar Bergmann commented on the project’s significance, stating, “This initiative is a clear signal that small towns in rural regions can also drive innovations and future technologies. With the substantial financial support from the Ministry of Home Affairs of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia, and the expertise of our project partners, we are realizing a construction project in Nordkirchen that is attracting attention, not only locally but also on a broader scale.”
