@@annielin2894 No, they don't usually cater to single family homes yet because demand is so high and there haven't been many printers built yet. There is somewhat of a supply chain issue.
And negatively impact many many more. Skilled tradesman? Do we want to eliminate them? The hundreds of thousands of people employed in traditional built homes? Just a thought. Seems great, but I believe there is more to consider than the subjective cost to an individual.
@@theproduct8375 All these aholes with their grubby hands in my pocket, they can f right off. Everyone needs a home, these vultures can find some other carcass to peck at.
I honestly think this is the future of housing. The better and cheaper this technology becomes, there is literally no way for traditional housing will be able to compete price wise. I do like some of the designs on here but I think eventually the overall look and designs will improve in the future.
Any mention about freeze/thaw effects on the concrete exterior? Cracking as the product settles? Eliminating entire trades and thousands of jobs? Rendering skilled labor a thing of the past? Just a couple bugs which I'm sure will have to be worked out. Great at a glance, but everything which glitters isn't gold.
Need to address settling over time, which causes cracks. Same with cold, wet, icy weather. I noticed in nearly all the interior shots there were no decorations and the paint had to be sprayed to go over those rough walls. How about some sort of hangers embedded in the walls to hang sheet rock in interior? Then you can have wallpaper, rolled paint, hang pictures, hang TV mounts, run electrical and not have the mount be all sloppy, etc. In a similar way, you could have embedded attachment points on the outside for a facade to attach. Facade could be fake rock wall (I've seen those), could be a more typical looking siding or actual natural rock. Main thing is you need to address mount points present or future and how they attach. Can a person drill these 3D printed houses to mount something?
if the house printed in concrete, that must be better than those using wood to build. Don't tell me that wood is harder than concrete .Which material using to build can withstand your mentioned risk?!
It should be possible to integrate moving guide rails so that the walls are smooth! Verdigris that must be laboriously removed collects between the vaulted areas. If you print it, then do it right....
doesn't cement/concrete crack over time? 🤦♂️ Edit: 4:39 AFFORDABLE?!?! $300K That is NOT affordable. You can get a double wide for HALF THAT. Another edit 6:08 THIS has potential.
Man, lol, the machines take EVERYTHING away. Corps are literally gonna be small as hell from now on, just a bunch of people who can help a robot work, lol.
Claramente es fantastico y demuestra a cierta distancia que es posible la tecnologuia 3d llevada a la conastruccion exepto por los costos que por abc motivos se traduce en ganancias y aumento de costos y no en masificacion del proyecto eso solo hasta que se haga todo el kid completo
That Australian company with the robot concrete block layer looks promising. That might be successful in the U.S...we need affordable housing for the masses. When I say affordable I mean around 100,000 us dollars or lower.
@@mightymouse2098 Actually it’s sad,and there is one word to explain it…GREED! From the cost of the building materials to the greedy realtors. Way too many people have their fingers in the pie.
will like these Projects can be done in other country which are under developement . And i wanted to know while construction on use of concrete will be done or other materials will be added for the construction. i would like develope this project in my country
Question why does this have to be done with a program system? I mean couldn’t it be done remotely by hand? This seems to me it would be a perfect for building basements foundations less chance of blow outs plus less labor too.
As cool as it is to see a house being build with a 3D printer, almost every finished structure is as astatically pleasing as as freshly squeezed pimple . There are simpler, easier and more practical ways to build a house. Unless of course, you want your home to look like one of those WW2 bunkers that the Germans build in Normandy in preparation for Allied invasion and even those had a better looking finish.
I like this as a future building method but two items keep coming up in my mind. If a printed house is damaged how does one do the repair to make it look good as new? On a more subjective note, I find the layered courses of concrete look a little too much like layered poop.....so I would have to do some kind of surface finishing.
The problem with this texture on the outside is mold that will settle there they will need to be powerwashed regularly and on the interior now you have to vacuum walls
Very interesting the way to build 3D houses staves off costs to build a frame home. I ever win the lotto; I want my homes build in 3D way or wherever the wealth might spring forth.
I think they should combine the technologies, alternate rows of concrete and block, and add a third trowelling robot to smooth the joints... Or spend all of this money on something useful and leave the masonry to the masons.
I like the idea for cheap housing. But that doesn't mean it has to get rid of masonry. I personally think it looks like poop. Needs finish work. Good for us poor people. May actually increase jobs. Could possibly even make the concrete industry a little more lucrative with a higher demand for the product. Perhaps even future advancements of some kind?
It is not a "concrete" house..it is a "mortar" house..concrete must consist of aggregate, sand and cement..whereas mortar is a mixture of cement and sand only without coarse aggregate.
This is cool and all, but what about all the construction workers these 3D printers would replace?? Hasn't technology put enough people out of work or forced them to do something else just to live. 🤔
The technology is amazing. I'm a fan of the Hadrian X because of the flat surfaces. However, I really have a high hate reaction to the gloppy, bumpy, ugly other ones. I hope they do something to smooth all that out and make it more friendly looking. Right now it all looks so....cold and institutional.
I think instead of concrete a composite material would be better, with a smoother finish and more easily shaped, concrete by nature has limitations were as composite materials have many advantages, Composites can now be made from landfill trash, plastic bottles etc and just about anything, concrete uses all new materials so drains earths ores and minerals, composites dont crack and are easily made fire resistant, wonder if anyone has ever used such a material,
Most people when presented with a novelty find it hard to evaluate facts rationally, this makes the adoption of new technologies very risky. The awful aesthetics and energy costs of concrete aside I suspect that cracking and leaks will be the downfall of a lot of these designs.
I would then assume as technology improves there will be other materials being used here. I think this is like the beta version of something much more impressive in the future.
Good points. It will have to improve because right now it is not good enough. The loss of people with trade skills is happening anyway - I can say that in trying to find them now.
Сделано конечно красиво но есть одно но, бетон не дышит и в нем не так хорошо как в кирпичном и пеноблочном доме. Так что на счет экологичности тут спорный вопрос.
It's not as cost effective as you expect. Less labor to actually put up walls. But setup of the printer reintroduces the labor... The cost of the printer is tremendous. Still have all of the plumbing and electrical to do. Then the roof and finishing is not any easier. The lot price is the same and can be the majority of the home value.
O,K. One thing at a time ....esthetics....well...replaceable vertical non stick ( rollers ) to follow the nozel and flatten all that's glop is not beauty into perfect tranquility ....peace ....and harmony. Time will tell.....perhaps water system....sewage recycling system....and electrical ...plus (?) Compressed air technologies..... 3D printed.... on site ....may find their way down from Space X ....R. & D.. ....through amortization... into scaled up ....terrestrial application.... as an A.I. thinkable part...... of an emerging energy economy. Or not.
This is a joke. The only savings associated with this is the creation of the walls. That savings is not enough to make these homes the answers for the worlds housing. All the rest of the trades represented in home building still need to take place.
