Build your house using 3D printing technology without using brick

Fully furnished houses were built using 3D printing technology within two months in Shandong Province, China.

Many homes built by 3D printing have just arrived in Tan Chau, Shandong Province, China, Homecrux said on Sept. 13. They are well-equipped, including air conditioners and Chinese construction standards.

The giant 3D printers, 20 meters wide and 6 meters high, are used to create 3D prints for real-world construction. They make solid construction materials with the right amount and use very little material. In addition to 3D printers, engineers use liquid materials and computer-controlled machines to increase accuracy.

The process of building a concrete house takes two months and does not require a brick. Therefore, the 3D printing house is both economical and environmentally friendly. Here, the owner can enjoy a fully equipped room with two small courtyards.

"This is the first phase of a 3D printing project. We will continue to implement related projects, such as the ongoing park construction project in February 2016. " , Said Liao Xiaojun, who heads the project to build the Tan Chau Creative Industry Park using 3D printing technology.

The houses built in 3D cost around 750 USD / m 2. However, the contractor believes that this price may decline with the development of 3D printing technology and building materials. The number of 3D printers in China is increasing. Perhaps living in technology-based homes will become commonplace in this country in the years to come.
