Is there a future for 3D-printed structures?

BluecornGroup

Are any architects currently working on a 3D-printed project? - as a designer of environmental custom homes I'm interested in the construction detailing for the permit set - how is fenestration handled such as door and window bucks? - I also wonder how structural reinforcement, electrical races, plumbing, and piping is is detailed or addressed in the design process - do architects see this as a sustainable building technology future or is this process just a trending development?

no. It’s silly. This was a hot topic 20y ago when I was in school.

Agreed with NS. Total hogwash outside of academia. Ain't gonna happen in our lifetimes, at least not on our own planet.
