GUIDE TO 3D PRINTING HOMES
Steps to Getting a Home 3D Printed
From 3D Designs to 3D Concrete
1. Obtain a house design from an architect.
1. Obtain a home design from an architect A 3D Printed House necessitates a detailed blueprint created through modeling software, outlining the specific construction elements of the residence. This design process can be conducted internally at LUYTEN Construction or outsourced to specialized companies that focus on residential design within the construction sector.
2. Obtain approval for your building permit and development application.
Constructing 3D printed houses necessitates obtaining legal authorization, with the procedures for regulatory consent mirroring those used for conventional homes. The advancements in materials science associated with 3D construction printing exceed existing building codes, as these homes have demonstrated greater strength and durability. Nonetheless, the majority of design specifications will align with regulatory standards. LUYTEN's Ultimatecrete stands out as the first and only 3D printable concrete approved in Australia, and it holds a global license for use.
3. Begin the preparation phase for your construction site (earthworks, footings, or slab).
Before the actual printing of the home can begin, the construction site needs to be readied. This step is typically straightforward and can be handled by your local builder or construction partners collaborating on the 3D printed home initiative. This will involve pouring a standard concrete slab in accordance with the design plans of the home.
4. Have your initial residence 3D printed in Australia.
The process of having your home created with 3D printing is quite detailed. Initially, the necessary 3D printing equipment must be brought to the building location. After that, the setup of materials and machinery is the last task before the actual 3D construction can commence. The duration of the setup can vary based on weather conditions and the site’s specifics, but it can be completed in as little as 20 minutes. Typically, constructing a three-bedroom house takes anywhere from 24 hours to 3 days.
5. Complete Home Construction.
Once the 3D printing process for your home's interior and exterior walls is finished, the roof is added, completing 80% of the structure. This advancement simplifies the work of professionals like plumbers and electricians, as the 3D printed walls are pre-equipped with all necessary service point openings thanks to the digital blueprint. Consequently, you can expect to have a fully functional home ready for you to move into within just 3 to 5 days, allowing you to enjoy the home of your dreams sooner than anticipated.
