I want to to see all the utilities installed. Plumbing, HVAC, Electrical/Broadband and interior design put into place.

[davincij]

The world of construction has taken its first step into rapid production with little or no delays.

[AAvfx]

*Wow! The applications with this technique are revolutionary!* 👍

[TheBM]

0:52 is the most satisfying shot ever.

[chubbygardener]

Can you imagine you can say.
"I have a 60 square meters plot, I need a three-storey house to my family"
"not problem, we have 200 models in our database, you'll choose one and we will print it next week"
Wow.

I know I'm almost a year late to this one, but I wanted to say I'm glad someone has been honest about the state of 3D printed homes. Every report and Video made it sound like every house would be 3D printed within a year.

5:28 You have to give credit here, so many apparently revolutionnary inventions are reduced to being demos having a one-time appearance in a magazine to never be mentionned again afterwards. They REALLY want to have these innovations to be applied in the real world and transition into a new century, to not be simple demos. Big respect.

[wheely]

id love to be a trend setter in aus to build one!

[gedamco]

You forgot to show the most important part: the house.

[CharmingAthens]

I was hoping to see the actual house, not a zoom meeting.

[garyvee]

As a concreter for over 35 years of my working life and a heavy construction supervisor for over 10 years, this is just the greatest innovation I have seen in all of my years in the building industry.

I'd like to see how these structures stand the test of time considering it's mostly just extruded cement with no rebar. What happens when the ground settles or with freeze and thaw cycles.

[casey]

Talk about the cost of Setting up all the Equipment Like the Tower Crane, and all the other cost like the Covering The Job Site.

Recently I discovered that during the period of approx. 1940-1970, UK built around 300, 000 factory pre-fabricated concrete-based homes. Some were concrete blocks or panels, some were cast concrete with rebar, some were Wimpey "no-fines" or Laing "Easiform". Many of these houses still exist today. Most are difficult to live in - mounting a TV on a wall can cause the concrete to splinter out. Climate here in the UK means they are often cold and expensive to heat. Having external insulation can be a remedy but usually it needs to be renewed about every 7-10 years.

Perhaps one of the biggest problems with UK concrete houses of that era is that they are getting older! As time progresses, they are becoming increasingly difficult to get a mortgage on or home insurance for. Both mortgage lenders and home insurers see these as "non-traditional" constructions (not brick) so either charge an additional premium or refuse to offer a contract.

Yes, concrete homes have had a great history and with 3D printing technology are likely to have a great future. However, certain markets for them around the world will struggle to accept them.

I just made a 3D printed lamp..now they’re making houses?!!! Wow! This is so amazing!! 🤩🤩🤩

[soxrule]

I'm a plumber in Chicago that has done lots of commercial amd some residential work over the years, and I'd love to work on a 3D project!

[QueenetBowie]

Curious about the comfort levels, how is sound proofing, temperature insulation, etc?

[adsads]

As an architect, I can see the endless possibility, hope I get to work to with such technology one day.

we use to invent things in america, but this is the coolest thing i have seen in a long time.
