Giant 3D-printer builds a TWO-STORY house in one piece ????

Belgian company Kamp C recently finished construction of its first 3D-printed two-story house. The house was printed by a machine called the BOD2, made by a company called COBOD (Construction of Buildings on Demand). #3DPrinting #ConstructionTech

    LoL as an 3D printer user, I aks… Does it make support?

    • Expression

      August 16, 2020 at 8:01 pm

      Humans add in the supports manually during the print.

      @Expression yes, i noticed but it would be cool if it could print like light parts for supporting overhangs and you can like knock it of easly

    Where can I buy this house?

    I would like to have seen the floors printed.

    Regarding rebar comments, I imagine the concrete mixture contains fiberglass in the mix which I believe would enhance strength, depending on the span and engineered specified weight limit. I don’t think the Cathedral of Notre Dame had rebar in it’s structural core.

      Not fibreglass but tiny, 7 to 10 mm long steel needles that make the concrete sturdy just as the traditional one!

    Anyone with a 3D printers knows what a mess you can have with a failed print. It’s simple enough to just toss in the trash. A failed cement print that has solidified … not so much.

    • Expression

      August 16, 2020 at 8:09 pm

      That’s why there are people watching the process the whole time.

    This is already revolutionising space construction for the moon and mars.

      A teacher of mine’s son was working on programming machines that will build shelters on Mars. Robots are taking all the jobs.

    Somebody put googly eyes on the print head. Looks like its got a mouth with a moving tongue too.

    I want a giant 3D printed Benchy tugboat.

    • Chris Petersen

      August 16, 2020 at 7:13 am

      Seriously, right? All of these printers should have first done a calibration Benchy before they started on houses…

    I wish there were more dome enthusiasts designing more 3D printable spherical buildings for residential use in seismic and hurricane prone areas.

    Interested to see how this plays out with the cement shortages due to running out of appropriate sand for concrete…

    • EvenFive

      August 16, 2020 at 5:59 am

      This gave me an idea, plastic/hemp 3d printed houses. Seems like a better material than cement for short term.

    • Expression

      August 16, 2020 at 8:06 pm

      @EvenFive How do you plan on melting the kind of amount of plastic needed to make 8cm wide lines at an acceptable speed?

    • EvenFive

      August 16, 2020 at 8:36 pm

      @Expression scaled up hardware. The real problem is cooling the plastic.

    • Carie Saad

      August 16, 2020 at 10:47 pm

      What shortages?

  13. sherri moquin

    I got an idea what if all the construction vehicles got replaced with giant 3d printers ????????

    • Crypto Cliff notes

      August 16, 2020 at 9:57 pm

      Still need them for demolished or damaged houses

    • sherri moquin

      @Crypto Cliff notes well it was just an idea though

    3:05 imagine if someone accidentally drop a tool within the wall, you may have to leave it there for good.

    • Carie Saad

      August 16, 2020 at 10:44 pm

      They got magnets for that

  18. Sony Djuana

    August 16, 2020 at 8:54 am

    How about 3D printer that can build itself?

    • Carie Saad

      August 16, 2020 at 10:46 pm

      They do build the parts for them already. Google ‘3D printer farms’.

    I would like Argos (UK shop that offers no quibble returns) to stock 3D Printers. I will then _buy_ one, use it to print myself a 3D printer and then take the original _back_ to Argos.

    • Expression

      August 16, 2020 at 8:02 pm

      You SAY that… but once you’ve looked into sourcing your own parts for a printer you’ll change your mind.

  22. Mohammed Rafi

    How about ship or boat

  23. walif walif

    August 16, 2020 at 4:35 pm

    but why never renewables? like plastic or class. why isn’t it printing that for us to stay in?

    • Expression

      August 16, 2020 at 8:02 pm

      Just what kind of temperature do you think are involved in printing plastic that you think you can just print 8cm wide lines of plastic like it’s nothing?

      Houses of glass?

      @Expression The first 3D-printed boat, ‘built’ by the world’s largest 3D printer

    • walif walif

      August 17, 2020 at 7:35 pm

      @Expression all I’m saying is sort out different kinds of plastics, then cut them up in small fine pieces and then melt them back together into one large project… kind of the same principle like a doddle gun, you don’t heat all the plastic at once… just the ones at the tip bringing your temperature must lower

    Nice we have AI to replace workers. There has to be software AI can replace executives too since most companies executives meet revenue by laying off workers. An AI can do that way better and won’t have romantic relationship with another human. Like the Mickey D former CEO did.

    • Alex Bakshi

      August 17, 2020 at 11:15 am

      Distopians won’t let us do that. People think AI is dangerous and don’t think about the benefits it can give us. We humans are made to create. Only people like Musicians, Scientists, Programmers, Artists will never be replaced by AI because it’s based on creativity. A person who doesn’t create is useless and obsolete.
