3D Printing a House in One Day

3D Printing a House in One Day
Jan-20-14
A new 3D printer concept uses quick-drying cement to print a two-story, 2500 square foot home in less than 24 hours.

The printer, designed by Professor Behrokh Khoshnevis, is equipped with two crane-shaped arms supporting the crossbeam that contains the printhead. The huge device is sent atop a set of tracks and would be able to work on all areas of the house at the same time. The process would be mostly automated, although the foundation, window head jams and a metal ceiling between floors would need to be completed by construction crews.
