Wednesday, September 21, 2022

LONDON , Sept. 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- 3D printing technology is gaining popularity in the modular and prefabricated nonresidential building construction market trends. Modular and prefabricated nonresidential building construction companies are using 3D construction printing for creating construction components or to 'print' entire buildings. A construction 3D printer is a machine that can build facilities by depositing a material (concrete, for example) layer by layer. Concrete 3D printing, or "Construction 4.0", is a similar 3D printing technology to the one that Fused Filament Fabrication uses. Paste-type material, such as concrete or earth materials, is pushed through a nozzle in layers to print buildings in 3D. For instance, the National Fire Protection Association's Cheniuntai company is one of several that are already using 3D printers to construct houses, office buildings, and other structures worldwide.
