This review paper aims to provide an inclusive characterization of the use of concrete in
additive manufacturing by exploring the various parameters that affect the extrudability …

Rheology is an effective and efficient indicator to characterize the flow properties of fresh
concrete. Through rheology measurement, the influence of variations in constituents and …

In this study, a framework for performance-based laboratory testing of cementitious mixtures
for construction-scale 3D printing is developed, where workability of a fresh “printing …

Abstract 3D printing is a promising technology in construction industry. Unlike conventional
construction process, 3D printing buildings are extruded by a nozzle layer-over-layer without …

Abstract 3D printing technique is an opportunity for the development of architecture industry
altered by the emergence of 3D printing concrete ink that shows unconventional …

The current 3D concrete printing (3DCP) technology is limited by the reinforcing methods.
Conventional steel reinforcement is hard to be incorporated in the 3DCP process. To …

A design scheme for self-reinforced cementitious composites to be used for building-scale
3D printing processes is introduced. The design is based on that of engineered cementitious …

Material design of alkali activated fly ash-based binders for extrusion-based 3D printing, the
rheological responses that are influential in ensuring printability, and the properties of such …

Nanoclay, a thermal treated, purified attapulgite clay, has been used to increase thixotropy.
However, the effect of nanoclay in presence of water reducing agent, such as PCE, on …

Understanding the rheological properties of cementitious materials is important for
controlling their fresh properties and for improving the practical applications. In this study …
