Is it possible to print a building? – yes it is. 3D printing is what many believe the future of construction It’s already possible to print walls, doors, floors and even complete houses.Behrokh Khoshnevis, pioneer of printing with concrete (also known as Contour Crafting), developed a method which leverages the power of additive manufacturing in construction. Contour Crafting essentially uses a robotic device to automate the construction of large structures such as homes. This device prints walls layer-by-layer by extruding concrete. The walls are smoothed as they are built, thanks to a robotic trowel.
