Just looking at something else came across this revolution in Architecture - the kind of concreate you can use to do 3D printing of buildings.
I Would like to look at the paper - how do they handle reinforcement bars ( aka rebars ) ? Could this handle agrigate ? I've seen glass fiber in concreate with might be a rebar replacement.
Makes you wonder if you can pre-print building as a base on Mars.
This is a good example of the printer
There is a great deal of nivity about building - for example you don't generally have space around a site to put the printer frame down but does show a solution to the re-bar problem. Plus a good NASA base example! Architects look out!
