| General note | This research focuses on designing and developing a concrete 3D printer which<br/>uses the Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technology. The primary objective of this<br/>thesis is to introduce 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) technology in Pakistan to address the<br/>housing challenges and providing cost-effective efficient construction solutions. This<br/>research aims to contribute to the construction industry by proposing a conceptual design,<br/>fabricating a 3D printer, investigating different concrete mixes, evaluating performance of<br/>the developed printer, and employing recycled and agro-based materials to the mixture to<br/>make it sustainable. This technology holds the potential to revolutionize the construction<br/>industry, reduce labor costs and injuries, and use raw materials efficiently which will<br/>positively impact the region’s economy. The study also explores the intricate relationship<br/>between different concrete additives and their influence on the mechanical strength of 3D<br/>printable concrete (3DPC). By emphasizing the importance of balancing printability,<br/>strength, and evaluating specific additives such as Fly Ash, Silica Fume, Rice Husk Ash,<br/>Crushed Recycled Concrete, and Crushed Recycled glass, this research provides valuable<br/>insights about the basis on which a material mixture must be designed for 3D printing<br/>(3DP). Also, by employing superplasticizer and viscosity modifying admixture, the<br/>research comprehensively analyzes the flow properties of fresh 3DPC and the strength<br/>performance of water-cured samples at day 7 and 28. The significance of early-stage<br/>strength development and sustainability considerations empowers this research to<br/>contributes to the existing discourse surrounding 3DCP technology, paving the way for an<br/>additive-enriched formulation that harmonizes printability, structural performance, and<br/>environmental responsibility. |
