<scp>TRR</scp> 277: Additive manufacturing in construction

Abstract The building industry is one of the least digitalized sectors global economy to date. Unlike other industrial sectors, manufacturing buildings characterized by traditional handicraft techniques and individualized construction processes. Digital production technologies from have not become established in because they do allow necessary individualization or are uneconomical transfer construction. advantages additive (AM) that automation contradictory. Furthermore, a new design strategy embedded 3D printing, namely build up material only where it structurally functionally needed. AM is, therefore, both economical resource‐efficient. DFG Collaborative Research Centre/Transregio TRR 277 Additive Manufacturing Construction (AMC) two universities TU Braunschweig Munich wants research technology fundamentally also contributes digitization industry. This article gives an overview goals, work programme, methods 277, as well its three focus areas 18 scientific projects.
