Implementation of 3D Printing Technology in Construction Industry

Abstract

3D Printing technology in construction industry is the most interesting and trending in the world. 3D printing is a technology which is an automated production process with layer bylayer control using 3D Printer and it gained rapid development in recent years. The study is to know the history and evolution of 3D printing around the world. The trending area where 3D printing has been developing and working successfully is discussed. 3D Printing technology is used in many other fields frequently but not in huge product like construction building. Literature study is carried to identify the application of 3D printing technology in construction industry. As in construction project the small mistake can affect the total building and people. To avoid these damages there are few parameters which have to been considered before implementing the 3D printing technology in construction Industry. Overall, this paper gives an idea of 3D printing technology in Construction industry with its benefits and drawbacks from which future research and development can be made.
