Researchers at the National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST) in Pakistan have developed the country’s first 3D concrete printer.

The new technology aims to address the challenges faced by traditional construction methods, such as low productivity, high costs, and construction waste.

The 3D concrete printing technology, also known as additive manufacturing, is a potential solution to these challenges as it reduces construction costs by 40% to 50%.

The mix design used in this technology is similar to that of traditional concrete but with modified rheological properties.
