Construction site 4.0 (3D@SITE)
3D printing of large elements on the construction site
Putzmeister Engineering GmbH, Ed. Züblin AG and HeidelbergCement AG have formed the cross-sector 3D@Site consortium, joining forces to make 3D printing suitable for use on the construction site. For this purpose, the concrete pump is to be converted into a printer that will be supplied with printable ready-mixed concrete on site. The research project is based on the TU Dresden initiated CONPrint3D project, in which Putzmeister was already involved. The structural elements are to be printed directly from the BIM model, meaning that information on the building must be processed so as to generate...
