Abstract

This paper introduces the cutting-edge 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) process which stands at the core of the project Concrete Choreography, a family of nine prefabricated concrete columns. By simultaneously overseeing technological development, computational design and robotic fabrication, an interdisciplinary research team was able to reframe the challenge of large-scale high-resolution 3DCP.
