3D printed concrete for large-scale buildings: An overview of rheology, printing parameters, chemical admixtures, reinforcements, and economic and environmental prospects
Abstract
Abstract This paper provides a comprehensive survey of current technological challenges and prospects for 3D printing technology with concrete applied to large-scale buildings. This innovative construction approach promises to revolutionize the shape of buildings with considerable time and cost savings but is still facing many technical and operational challenges. We gathered the knowledge of the most relevant and recent publications with our perception to address and discuss the main operational parameters, feasibility, and prospects for 3DPC technology. The paper is organized into five main categories: rheology of concrete for printing, effect of chemical admixtures, the role of reinforcements and inclusions, printing parameters and solutions for large-scale printers, and an analysis of economic and environmental aspects.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
