In California, the world's first neighborhood will be built, consisting of houses that were created using a 3D printer. Experts believe that this technology has a lot of advantages and prospects, but there are also significant disadvantages, relating, in particular, to communications. How the settlement, which was literally “printed out”, will look like - in the material of Gazeta.Ru.

Construction company Mighty Buildings plans to solve housing crisis with robots and 3D printing technology, Business Insider reports . In the California city of Rancho Mirage, a settlement will be built entirely consisting of custom houses created on a 3D printer.

Mighty Buildings is far from the first company to take notice of this promising technology, but the area that will appear in Rancho Mirage is positioned by the developer as "the world's first residential complex of" printed "houses. " The project will include 15 houses on an area of ​​20 thousand square meters. m. Its cost will be $15 million.

“This will be the first realization of our vision for a future of residential construction that can be rolled out very quickly,” said Alexey Dubov, co-founder and COO of Mighty Buildings.

According to him, such houses will be more affordable than ordinary residential buildings.

Mighty Buildings houses will be created using the patented material Light Stone, which changes shape under the influence of ultraviolet radiation. In this way, prefabricated panels will be created that can be assembled on the spot - like a constructor. This construction method is fast, but not at the expense of the strength of the building being erected. 3D printing is helping Mighty Buildings cut construction costs by 40% while reducing waste by 9%, according to Sam Reuben, chief sustainability officer at the company.9%.

3D-printed houses are indistinguishable from conventional houses made of concrete or brick and are not inferior to them in quality, the developer assures. The area of ​​the building will be about 134 square meters. m., and each individual plot - 929 sq. m. Each house contains three bedrooms and two bathrooms. There will be a private swimming pool in the backyard. Also, all premises will receive a smart air and water quality control system.

These houses will be powered by solar panels installed on the roof, which can be supplemented with Tesla Powerwall batteries.

“Our project aims to minimize environmental impact and create smart and healthy homes for environmentally conscious buyers,” Mighty Buildings said in a press release.

Construction of houses using 3D printers is already our reality, says Artem Deev, head of the analytical department at AMarkets. Such projects are being actively implemented not only in the USA, but also in China, India, European countries, and also in Russia.

“Technology has a lot of advantages - low cost of construction, reduction in the number of personnel to install such a house, speed of construction of objects, cleanliness at the construction site (houses are assembled on site), simplicity (it's like a designer) and savings.

There are also disadvantages - significant initial costs for special equipment, since the printer can cost about $ 2-3 million. In addition, communications are carried out using old technologies.

But this construction of houses and entire settlements is the best way out when you need to build a large amount of housing in a short time (for example, after natural disasters). Therefore, in the future, the technology will be actively developed, and the volume of such housing construction will grow, ”the expert believes.

Hanna begins construction of "the first 3D printed high-rise building in the United States."

Ithaca, New York-based design studio Hannah has begun work on Cores, a building in Houston that it says will be the first 3D printed multi-story structure to be completed in the United States.

The hybrid structure is constructed from 3D printed concrete combined with a timber frame and is designed as a multi-storey single family home.

Hana designed a 3D printed high-rise building in Houston.

With 4,000 square feet (371 square meters) of living space, the home must be scalable and compatible with typical timber frame structures.

“The project showcases the power of 3D printing technology, mass customization and design solutions that integrate traditional building methods,” Hanna said.

The house will combine 3D printed concrete with a wooden frame.

“Through a hybrid construction method that combines concrete 3D printing with timber framing, this approach allows for the strategic use of two material systems and aims to expand the applicability of 3D printing in the US, where framing is one of the most common construction methods. Hanna said.

Hanna's concept includes a series of printed "cores" that contain stairwells and functional spaces for the structure.

Portal printer creates stairwells and function rooms from concrete.

These space cores will then be connected with a timber frame to complete the structure.

The team worked with the American subsidiary of the German 3D construction company PERI 3D Construction, as well as the engineering firm CIVE, to design a house using a COBOD BOD2 portal printer and printable concrete for the building.

A closed cell foam system was used to insulate the house.

Concrete is at the heart of the building

The cores have been designed to be modular and the designers hope that this concept will be applied to further multi-family and mixed-use construction in the future.

“The project also highlights the exciting potential of designing custom-made architectural components to meet the needs of homeowners and facilitate building systems integration,” Hanna said.

"These design efforts aim to increase the impact, applicability, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness of 3D printing for future US residential and multi-family buildings."

According to Hanna, the structure will take 220 hours to print, and the studio will move the printer to three different locations during the process to accommodate the linear section.

Renderings of the completed project show a raw sandwich concrete façade with metal panels and windows arranged according to the print gradient.

In the past few years, the development of 3D printed houses has become more and more common.

Last year, Logan Architecture and construction company ICON completed the first 3D printed homes for sale in the United States.

Printable concrete was used to create the structure.

According to ICON, 3D printed houses can provide good protection against natural disasters through sustainable materials and modular construction methods.

While concrete is commonly used for printing, firms have also experimented with using materials such as soil for design.
