As the Chinese have printed 10 houses in one day

This month, the architects from Amsterdam started over the world's first house made entirely by means of 3D-printers. Its completion will take three years and will require adequate resources. Meanwhile a Shanghai company said it had already printed the 10 houses of cheap industrial waste in less than one day. Why such a difference in speed and cost?

Primarily, it is important to print resolution. Both projects used industrial 3D-printers. For example, Shanghai printer length of 150 m, a width of 10 and a depth of 6 m. Instead of expensive plastic Chinese company uses a mixture of "Made of recycled construction and industrial waste, and mine dumps. " Each house stands in the production of less than 5000 $.



However, the major difference is that the Chinese version of that first printed design elements, and потом already happening assembly on site. The Dutch approach the question differently: each room, detail, every hardware elements will be printed as a whole, without dividing into parts. Therefore, some critics believe that the Chinese house can not be called truly printed.





But let's not quibble with the words. If the Chinese are not deceived, they have managed to create and sverhbystrovozvodimy sverhdeshёvy house. The manufacturer claims that their homes are designed for the poor and homeless, which is a very big problem in many Chinese cities. Although most of this project is similar to the earlier dream of architectural 3D-printing. Although in comparison with the idea to spend 3 years and millions of dollars to create a 13-room house made of plastic, the Chinese version looks very interesting.

According to the 3Ders.org, WinSun plans to build China's 100 assembly plants and waste for the production of houses by 3D-printing.
