Abstract:
This pair of sessions, co-organized with RILEM (Technical Committee DFC: Digital fabrication with cement-based materials and RILEM 266-MRP – Measuring Rheological Properties of Cement-Based Materials) seeks to present the latest developments on the topic of 3-D printing of concrete. This new frontier in building materials technology investigates methods and materials that will allow concrete to be made rapidly, at a lower cost, in unique designs and without formwork. This revolutionary idea exists at an intersection between concrete materials science and advanced processing technologies.
