2 days to build a dwelling house: 3D printers helping to build houses





A couple of years ago, "Native American" (as SLY_G in his post) Andrey Rudenko began to build a concrete model of medieval castles in Minnesota, USA. It was quite a large model, with an area of ​​bases 3 * 5 meters. not the concrete mixer and shovel was used to create such a lock, and a specially designed 3D printer. Themselves locks, too, were not created for the game, and for testing of the construction process. Andrew planned in the same way to build homes.

And now these plans are translated into reality. Recently, a YouTube video was posted, which shows the process of building a house. It is about creating the basic framework, which, after finishing work, adding power lines, water supply, etc. It turns into a really house. And for comparison, a conventional process of house construction. By the way, the frame with the help of 3D printer was built in just 48 hours.

The creator of printing houses have engineering and architectural education, it helps in the development process. In addition, the house is designed to meet safety requirements and other relevant bodies. Buildings that builds Rudenko, resistant to storms and even tornadoes.



That's what he says Andrey Rudenko in the comments on the composition of the mixture and the printer on YouTube: «Composition of the mixture is quite simple but it requires a very careful selection of proportions depending on the type of sand, climate. A little bit not the same proportion, and all ... so working on fully automatic mixing system with various sensors there is moisture, temperature, weight, etc ... Installation (printing system) expensive as many of the components included in it (automatic mortar unit, pumps, etc.) . It makes no sense to talk about the cost of the individual parts, all will work well only in the package, it is useless to try to use such a conventional mixer (we tried). »

But even old video about the construction of castles (similar video recorded from the TV screen, so the quality is not very):



After the locks Andrey already had time to test the technology in a commercial building in the Philippines. He has created an extension to the hotel, with columns and a Jacuzzi (in general, the previous version was very similar to the current one).
