Abstract

This chapter covers the existing and emerging 3D Printing technologies and their potential and limitations for architectural design. Aspects related to the cost of production, size limitations, speed and mass production, material properties, and environmental benefits are discussed. A selection of the most relevant printing technologies for architecture is analyzed in more detail, including direct concrete printing, fused deposition modeling, direct metal laser sintering, and binder jetting.
