International Experience and Prospects for the 3D Concrete Printing Development

Abstract

The concept of Industry 4.0, which is considered the fourth industrial revolution, includes the collective concepts of technologies such as the Internet of Things, virtual and augmented reality, information modeling technologies, printed electronics, artificial intelligence, etc. One of the most dynamically developing technologies within Industry 4.0 are additive technologies, including additive construction production (construction 3D printing) using concrete as an extruded material (3D Concrete Printing technology or 3DCP in international terminology). The article presents an overview of international experience in the development of 3D construction printing based on publications presented in the international Scopus database. The main vectors for the development of additive technologies, including 3D construction printing, as well as promising research in this area, are determined.
