Course Description:

This course explores the emerging field of 3D concrete printing and its applications. Participants will examine the latest advancements in large-scale additive manufacturing (AM) technology and its potential for revolutionizing the construction industry. The course will delve into the performance and characteristics of printable concrete in elevated temperature circumstances, bridging the knowledge gap in fire performance of 3D-printed concrete structural elements. Participants will explore the development of 3D printing mixes, including the evaluation of fresh printing properties, workability, extrudability, and setting time. The course will also cover the impact of aggregate-to-binder ratios on the mechanical properties of printed concrete and the role of nano- and micro-additives in improving the performance of 3D-printed concrete.

Learning Objectives:

1. Attendees will understand the principles and technologies behind 3D concrete printing.

2. Attendees will understand  the impact of different fire scenarios on the performance of non-load-bearing 3D-printed concrete walls.

3. Attendees will learn about the role of nano- and micro-additives in enhancing the properties of 3D-printed concrete, such as thixotropy, porosity, permeability, and mechanical strength
