November 28, 2023 – The Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) supports two research projects led by Eindhover University of Technology (TU/e). One of the TU/e projects that received a subsidy is called BUILTWISE, and revolves around automated printing of affordable concrete houses, an important research area of TU/e.
In the study, researchers led by professor Theo Salet of the department of Built Environment, combine 3D concrete printing with modular construction principles.
The aim is to increase knowledge of suitable reinforcement methods for large-scale concrete printing. The researchers also plan to develop a new design technology for 3D concrete printing.
