Aggregate gradation impacts on fresh properties of 3D concrete printing mixtures
… the mixture’s pumpability, extrudability, and buildability requirements are met. However, no comprehensive framework exists to optimize aggregate gradation and paste volume, thereby reducing cement content, to meet targeted fresh property requirements for printability. This research study …

The Influence of Time-Dependent Rheology on the Multiple Scales of 3D Printing with Cementitious Materials
… time-dependent pumpability, extrudability and buildability. Numerical models were also developed to help understand the actual shear conditions within these experimental procedures. On a mesostructured scale, the cross-sectional morphology of printed filaments is experimentally and numerically …

Fresh Mix Properties and Flexural Analysis with Digital Image Correlation of Additively Manufactured Cementitious Materials
… indicators of printability, pumpability, and buildability. The fresh mix properties were investigated for 12 different mortar mixes to demonstrate the effect that moisture content, absorption, and sand type can have on these fresh mix properties. The results for setting time and compressive …

Sustainable 3D Concrete Printing for Eco-conscious Construction: Recycled Aggregates and Low-carbon Binders
… 100% are achieved, with results showing enhanced buildability and thixotropic behaviour, maintaining adequate pumpability and extrudability for 3DCP. The highly porous CDW leads to reduced stiffness as the CDW content increased. The suitability of the material developments made is proven through …

LIGHTWEIGHT AND ADVANCE PRECAST CONCRETE SYSTEM FOR MODULAR BUILDING CONSTRUCTION
This paper proposes a new cruciform module design for the construction of buildings with wider column-to-column such as the Healthcare and Institutional Buildings with the use of lightweight concrete. Based on the finite element analysis (FEA) of two buildings with similar configurations and global …
