Future of concrete!




Concrete Printing Process developed at Loughborough University in the UK is capable of producing building components with a degree of customisation that has not yet been seen. It could create a new era of architecture that is adapted to the... environment and easy for the engineering function. This concrete printing will be use in future, so that can create many different shape easily, increase the efficiency of the construction project.
 
No one can say with certainty what the future will bring, but we know that change will come. The improvements of products combined with new technologies and techniques will lead to advances in efficiency and better end products.
 
Several industry leaders had invited to predict upon what might be in store for the concrete construction industry in its next 50 years. Several have focused on advancements in materials, while others focused on improved equipment and techniques. And for many, the future hinges on what concrete offers for sustainable construction.
We hope you enjoy our thoughts.

  3. Why not consider some kind of enhanced fiber-reinforced concrete as an alternative to rebar? The goal of rebar reinforcement is to add stiffness, is it not? In which case, the right kind of fiber-reinforced could add stiffness to the walls/structures in a more uniform way than rebar could.

  5. How can they be so creative to joint both photocopy-technology with concrete building? :D
    Genius indeed.

  7. This is really impressive as they created thing which we think is impossible to make. For example, they can create spanner which made up of polystyrene using this technology. I believe this technology can bring a lot of conveniences to the people because the construction of a building can be done in a shorter period of time to meet the rapidly growing of human population.
