UTC3D-Printed House Can Be Assembled in Just One Day

Just last month, Dutch architects unveiled plans to build the world’s first 3D-printed house out of sand, with a construction time of 18 months. Now British architecture collective Softkill Design has announced that it too is planning to build a 3D-printed house, but it can be printed in three weeks and built in one day.
Rather than sand, the structure, known as the ProtoHouse, will be built out of highly fibrous laser-sinted bioplastic. The company does not see it as a race, they don’t even see the Dutch as competition. A member of Softkill Design, Gilles Retsin told Dezeen:
We actually don’t even consider that a 3D-printed building because he is 3D-printing formwork and then pouring concrete into the form. So it’s not that the actual building is 3D printed.
The design will be entirely constructed from the printed material. What’s more there will be no need for any adhesive or bolting of any kind. Once the pieces have been printed, the house can be snapped together in one day. Said Retsin:
You don’t need any bolting, screwing, or welding on site. Imagine a Velcro or button-like connection. The pieces are extremely light, and they just kind of click together so you don’t need any other material.
It is likely we will only be hearing more about 3D-printed houses in the future. With their cost saving potential and material efficiency, they could seriously challenge the traditional landscape of architecture.

可在短短一天时间组装完成的3D打印房子 2013年2月15日22时52分33秒UTC3D,印刷房子可以在短短一Day3dhouseinsideDaniela WalkerforPSFK2013-02-15 22时52分33秒UTCPsfk-12ab86cbe1Follow @psfk组装
就在上个月,荷兰建筑师公布了建造世界上第一个用沙子建造的3D打印房屋的计划,建造时间为十八个月。现在英国建筑集团SufftKyt设计公司宣布,它也计划建造一个3D打印房屋,但是它可以在3周内打印并在一天内建成。
而不是砂,结构,被称为ProtoHouse,将建出高度纤维状激光sinted生物塑料的。该公司并没有把它作为一个种族,他们甚至看不到荷兰的比赛。 Softkill设计中的一员,吉尔斯Retsin告诉Dezeen:
事实上,我们甚至不认为这是一个3D打印的建筑,因为他是三维打印模板,然后浇筑混凝土到表单中。因此,它不是实际的建筑3D打印。
该设计将完全构造从印刷材料。更重要的是会出现不需要任何形式的粘合剂或螺栓连接。一旦作品被印刷,房子可以捕捉到一起的一天。说Retsin:
你不需要任何螺栓连接,螺纹连接,或焊接现场。想象一下,一个魔术贴或纽扣状的连接。该作品是极轻,他们只是一种点击在一起,所以你不需要任何其他材料。
很可能我们将只听到更多有关在未来的3D打印房子。凭借其成本节约的潜力和材料效率,他们可能会严重挑战建筑的传统景观。
