A concrete house from the 3D printer? Yes there is! And that in just 5 weeks, in record time compared to a normal masonry construction, which would take several months.
The small concrete house was designed and fully printed by the startup 3DCP Group. The property is located in the town of Holstebro, Denmark.
“It doesn’t look that impressive when you walk by it on the street, but it’s actually a huge step forward for the construction industry and the future of construction,” said Mikkel Brich, the company’s cofounder and CEO.
5 weeks home
This is the group’s first building and has been named Casa 1.0.
To generate the house, 3DCP used the BOD2 printer from Danish construction and technology company COBOD.
The team worked 18 hours a day to complete the property. But in the total period, the 3D printer was only active for 22 hours. The rest was the completion of the work.
Electrical wiring, plumbing, and other features were completed when the house was printed.
House 1.0 was completed in March of this year.
It is now open to the public to see this magnificent construction up close!
People from several countries have already been there to understand how a concrete house can be finished in such a short time.
The value of the work was not disclosed.
