3D Printing in Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction - 3D printing is widely being used in heavy and civil engineering construction to reduce costs and construction time. 3D printing is a production technique which involves printers that create solid objects using concrete and composite mixture. The use of 3D printing techniques reduces labor costs, production time and enables the construction of a variety of customized structures.
Eco-friendly structures can be constructed using this technique as 3D printers can use materials such as bio plastics and recycled plastics; for example, in December 2016, the Institute of Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC) constructed a 3D printed pedestrian bridge in Madrid. Also, MX3D, a 3D printing technology company, is going to build a fully functional 3D printed steel bridge across a canal in Amsterdam.
