Brittle cracking is one of the most important causes of catastrophic destruction in structures
and infrastructures made of cement-based materials. Researchers have tried to reduce the …

Since eco-friendly, labor-saving construction technologies are urgently needed than ever,
concrete 3D printing technology has gained increasing attention. However, there are still …

While 3D printing of concrete (3DCP) has gained increasing interest in the construction
industry, steel reinforcement remains a significant obstacle to 3D printing (3DP) construction …

Extensive use and disposal of waste plastic bags have caused significant environmental
issues. However, waste plastic bags can be used as fibers to enforce the mechanical …

Inspired by nature, this study employed the Bouligand structures, as observed in the dactyl
club of mantis shrimp, to enhance the performance of 3D-printed Strain-Hardening …

Conventional concrete structures often rely on labor-intensive and wasteful formwork
systems. In contrast, 3D concrete printing (3DCP) technology offers a more efficient …

Several studies have shown the potential of strain-hardening cementitious composites
(SHCC) as a self-reinforcing printable mortar. However, papers published on the …

Abstract 3D concrete printing (3DCP) presents unique challenges in optimizing rheological
properties of concrete mixture, while tailoring the rheology of Engineered Cementitious …

3D concrete printing (3DCP) has limitations in weak interlayer bond strength and
reinforcement integration. To tackle these challenges, this study aims to develop and deposit …

Abstract Comparison of three-dimensional (3D) printing and cast methods on the
mechanical properties of cementitious materials is the basis for intelligent construction …
