Abstract
3D printing is basically, constructing an object or structure based on a computer aided design, depositing the material layer by layer using a Robotic Printer. The major advantages of 3D Printing are: Time saving, Design flexibilit, Environment friendly and it is suitable for constructions in hazardous & dangerous areas,where human force can not be deployed. 3D Printing technology makes the construction quicker and the buildings can be designed with intricate architectural details, and the technology allows for greater flexibility in customizing the design to meet specific needs, as the 3D Printer can execute whatever design it is fed continuously, and it also avoids waste of materials that happens during construction in a conventional way. Having multifarious advantages, 3D Printing is going to be the game changing technology and no doubt, this will be the future technology in construction sector across the globe towards a sustainable development.
