Additive Manufacturing of Concrete Structures

This course provides a broad introduction to the newly developing and highly multidisciplinary field of additive manufacturing of concrete, also known as 3D concrete printing (3DCP). The course focuses on structural engineering aspects related to the printing process, as well as to the printed products. Lecture topics include: 

  • Introduction, history and overview of the field
  • Materials and rheology
  • Processes, modelling and programming of CNC machines (e.g. robots)
  • Fresh state properties
  • Mechanical properties and durability
  • Reinforcement and detailing
  • Structural engineering and approval processes
  • Examples from practice 
     

The professorship also contributes to the curriculum of Concrete and Masonry Structures, in the following courses:
