This is valid for any technology (cpr. Ray Kurzweil). 3D printing is particularly interesting because it combines: manufacturing, prototyping, housing, etc., and because that "manufacturing" is said to cover realms as diverse as tools, furniture, clothing. Basically, (a helper in) most human needs. I am sure that in spite of the apparent collective poisoning, those making people speak and write in guttural ways, "we" still have unhindered potential imagination, and science fiction writers will remain prolific and, as usual, will partially hit and partially miss.
Replicaters & synthesizers will ultimately replace 3d printers. 3d printers are a nice start but lack many of the benefits that additive technology can provide.
As a zoomer, I think this is how my parents thought about computers in 1990. It's for nerds, It's cool and people are saying it will change the world but there are skeptics.
It never will. When you start scaling things up 3D printing stops making sense very fast. 3D printing has two main advantages, geometric flexibility and zero upfront tooling costs. But it's incredibly slow and therefore expensive. These are inherent properties of 3D printing, there is absolutely nothing you can do to change that. The hype can make "so much sense!", but only if you don't really understand other manufacturing processes and you don't really understand 3D printing itself.
aleksander suur I disagree strongly. It makes complete business sense, especially in sectors where it *will* one day be faster to print something on the floor of a factory than have it delivered. JIT delivery is good, but not as good as having something made on site. As far as consumers go, it takes a lack of foresight to say something will *never* happen. That’s a bold statement. Additive manufacturing is leaps and bounds less wasteful and therefore more cost effective than its counterpart. It’s the closest we have to six sigma manufacturing capabilities and bringing that from offshore to a person’s house is why it’s promising.
@@JBB685 In this case "never" is quite justified, it comes down to simple mechanical limitations. Think about it, why does it take forever to 3D print a piece of plastic?

Wow, I've been thinking all week some big youtubers should make more videos about 3d printing, and here you are! Metal 3d printing for example changed a lot recently. I was surprised how precise it is now. The British Tokamak fusion reactor is using 3d printed parts. Housing is interesting though. SO the base must be done by proper workers I guess? Then instead of bricks they use the concrete 3d printer?How do the pipes and wiring go into the wall? Could be a good idea for cheap housing though. I know that in the US, many homes are made from pressed wood etc. Incredibly week structures, and they use them in the tornado alley, so they get completely demolished when a tornado hits. This can provide cheap but strong housing. THe sculpture park- like housing plan looks something from the fifties though. I'm not sure it would age well.
I agree 100%. The technology is improving constantly and its only a matter of time before these construction methods become so efficient that they become impossible to ignore. I cover companies competing in this sector on my channel.
If cost of construction labor was all there was to it, you could easily bypass the problem by doing the work yourself. But it doesn't really work like that, now does it? So why do you expect robot doing the labor for you to change anything? Housing is not overpriced because construction is difficult, it's overpriced because million people all decide that the same place is the best for living and then it becomes a competition of who gets the largest loan from the bank.
I actually lived in eindhoven for three years and there is a massive housing shortage in the area. Hope the technology can mature quickly and start to solve the issue...

NOT FASTER OR CHEAPER compared to modular formwork. I sat there watching an Apis Cor video and the HUMAN LABOR ALONE involved for the first FOOT HIGH of the wall was enough to do FULL WALLS FOR THE WHOLE HOUSE. It's as versatile as hell but WITH THAT ITS OVERCOMPLICATED FOR A FEW LOUSY WALLS. Hell over here in Australia they pour the slab then use the slab AS THE FORMWORK FOR THE WALLS. You can do a VERY high workshop in less than 10 days and only a few dozen man hours before electrical and the finishing stuff.
I'm not quite sure about this. Most of the cost of a house is not in the .walls, but in the foundation, the plumbing, electrical, heating, etc. Watch a house getting built. The foundation takes months. When they finally get to it, the rough carpentry is done in three days. Then, months waiting for the rest. Maybe these things will be worked out over time.
"foundation takes months" where are you seeing this done that takes this long? From a treeless lot to finished foundation with basement shouldn't take more than 2 weeks, three tops. I've worked on half a dozen 2000-3000 square foot houses with 4 other guys. We had the excavator dig out the pit in less than a week. We set up the footer forms, laid out the rebar and poured the footer in one day. Three days to set Fox-Block ICF (Insulated Concrete Forms) wall block forms and set the rebar. Then a day to pour the walls inside those foam forms. One day to set any underfloor drain pipes, rebar/mesh and pour the basement floor.
@@michaelg4931 Yep, things go fast when you are doing it yourself. When you hire other people, you are stuck with their schedules, not yours. And with different contractors, with different priorities, everything takes forever.
@@christianlibertarian5488 I was working for a contractor. If the contractors are taking too long, the General Contractor (AKA The Builder) isn't doing his job and needs a talking to or to be replaced. A 3000 square foot home from ground breaking to weather tight shell should be to that point in under 6 weeks.
@Bainsworth They have pumper trucks which are similar to what you describe. The pumper truck is fed by concrete trucks. This is the combination used in the ICF (Insulated Concrete Form) construction I've been involved in. It would be extremely difficult for a person to manipulate the hose effectively to be able to create what is being shown,
It's all down to design. If the house is made from timber frame or even 3D printed bio plastics and plant based infil the weight is reduced reflecting in the size and volume of foundations. Conduit, electrical boxes, plumbing, aperture lingings and formers can be set in framework prior to printed infill. Modular rebar cages could be performed off site with concrete pumped in mere hours. Heavy plant equipment is already being developed to be automated so one day it will be a case of downloading a cad file and watching an IOT construction infrastructure get to work with humans just setting up, snagging and finishing. Perhaps in the future hollow beam frameworks that services can be run through will exist. Doors, windows, second fix, bathrooms and kitchens could also be installed far quicker if design and installation of wastes, services and fixings are pre installed or services cavities are provided. Plastering robots are already being developed and we know automated painting is not much of a challenge its been in the car industry for decades. It's early days but it is the future especially in compact urban environments. No one would have ever guessed that GSM push button mobiles would be superceded by devices that allow us to manage all aspects of our personal and professional lives on. The futures bright but it's not concrete and oil based materials.
Am curious to know how long it takes before the concrete mix is fully dry, water-tight etc., the "dirt" house known more as "cob house" needs to dry before adding more layers etc but maybe this slightly different?
I am thinking of a late career shift to architecture. Studied art design and theater then sold designer furniture. But I want to make unusually shaped houses.
To be honest i really want this to happen as in the Uk its very hard to buy your own house as costs seem to keep rising as-well as the purchase price continues to rise. It is looking harder and harder to buy on this market, which it shouldn’t be as shelter is a important thing that everyone needs and shouldn’t cost more then 1 years expenses
from a construction worker, it is about time. The construction industry is 1,000 years behind, until now ! So many archaic practices. The homeowners suggest things and I say: That's a good idea ! It is a force preventing development. Over the years I would see and actually be able to buy things that would then disappear when they were a threat to the mafia ownership of the firms making the garbage we use today. Two things off the top of my head are the socket wrenches that could not strip and the dust masks that nurses use. Still today, there is no working mask to protect a worker from toxic fumes. The one they sell does not work and is stupid expensive. And the workers have no choice. The methods and materials used in typical stick build residential construction are I believe 90+% unrecyclable. It is insane ! And it is so inefficient also... painting everything when an aluminum house was designed by Jacque Fresco in 1948 that could be built in a few hours and snapped together ! That's what I'm talking about and it was completely hidden and squashed. He came up with it because he was an inventor and realized there are all these aluminum plants ready to produce the materials at that time ! Here's a video about him ! th-cam.com/video/Yb5ivvcTvRQ/w-d-xo.html Hopefully you've seen it but since he was so active and I did not even hear about him until 2013, well if you haven't I am not surprised. It's the same as people not ever hearing about Elon Musk or Tesla, or Solar City, or Spacex. The news papers and tv are simply mafia out for the destruction of mankind and the earth they've made that perfectly clear. Never mention anything good basically when the real news should contain ZERO bad news if we are to have people grow up and engage in this world together ! Thanks for this video. This is REAL NEWS !
No mention of Fast Brick Robotics in Western Australia? They have just successfully completed construction of their first house using their on site robots that make bricks and lay them. I see a future with the 3D printing technology but aren't as enthusiastic with the current designs. That can easily change of course.
I agree. The designs with the completely impractical rounded walls are very off-putting to me. Not from an aesthetics standpoint, but for purely practical reasons. I image piping to be a nightmare in a home without a straight wall. Not to mention appliances, furniture, flooring and all the custom windows and doors.
@@tahneethompson6012 And again, all this rests on the assumption that _actual_ 3d printed houses will be round and that 3d printing will become a major factor in housing in the first place. Here's a project that's already beyond the prototype phase and will be rolled out at scale: www.businessinsider.com/3d-printed-homes-constructed-icon-new-story-tech-charity-4000-dollars-2018-3?IR=T Notice how they decided to go with straight walls, off-the-shelf windows, doors, plumbing, and furniture. I wonder why that is. Maybe it has to do with their goal of keeping cost to a minimum? Another overlooked (or dare I say conveniently ignored?) issue are regulations, codes, zoning laws, and safety standards. The main reason I chose ICON over dubious claims of Chinese firms like Yingchuang Building Technique Co. Ltd. (Winsun - 3dprint.com/38144/3d-printed-apartment-building/ ) is full compliance with local housing regulations and standards in the US. Most communities in the developed world have strict regulations when it comes housing no matter the construction method. Experiments like the Dutch Project Milestone have the express purpose to test acceptance, viability, and integration of these new techniques into existing communities. This also means that cost isn't the driving factor there and regulations don't apply in the same manner as elsewhere. As soon as you put it all together (safety standards, codes, zoning, interior fittings, plumbing, etc.), 3d-printing in its current state doesn't provide benefits over prefab houses if you don't choose the most cost efficient approach according to experts (see ariesbuildings.com/3d-modular-housing/ ). Given that the current targets for 3d printed housing are the developing world, emergency housing, and experimental architecture, I don't see any incentive for the (furniture-) industry to adjust to free-form 3d printed houses.
Over two years later and there are a couple dozen building companies pursuing 3D printing. Dubai is taking it seriously. I feel like I'm that kid in the late 1950s waiting for flying cars to happen in my lifetime. Over 50 years ago, technology put men on the on the moon, but we still haven't figured out how to mass produce a super-affordable, energy efficient, sustainable house. If they can get 3D printers to squirt out some eco-friendly substance that lasts, is structurally sound, stands up to heat, cold, the sun and aging it could revolutionize home building. Instead, most builders rely on trees for wood to embed in the walls and roofs of houses for framing, yet there has to be a way to stop this. I think the most promising is finding an inexpensive, non-toxic binder for soil, which a few companies are working on. Or, building in a factory using waste plastic which somehow gets rendered non-toxic.
tbh, the pandemic really effected the market. But i am sure 3d printing will become more common. I am an architecture student and I chose 3D printing as my topic for my dissertation. Every day I find new journal articles about 3d printing. wish me luck :)
You could probably just inject insulation as needed, but as these buildings could be made airtight, the still air between the walls would be a fairly decent insulator as it has about as much thermal conductivity as standard foams and such.
@@RedSlashAce Not so much now, older houses had to breathe more, but now houses are being designed and built differently. Installed ventilation is more important with newer designs than old houses because they dont leak air as much thanks to things like expanding foam insulation and other innovations.
Just discovered your videos, love your editing in these videos man, they have the same quality of a big channel like ColdFusionTV, I know it's only a matter of time till you get the same amount of subscribers as him ! I truly believe that, keep up the great work !.
I like the idea of non conventional construction in housing but question if banks would be willing to make loans on these types of homes. Even if they can be built and sold at lower prices, most people still would not have enough cash saved up to bypass the loan process.
There’s been huge tech news all over the spectrum this year. AI is progressing rapidly and Boston Dynamics are releasing their first robot next year. Plans to colonize the moon and mars.... the Future is looking amazing!!!
Thanks for research love your content! Only one thing it is difficult to hear your words when high volume music keep intruding. Could you just use your voice at least turn the music volume way down. I turn on your video for 3D printing news.
Someone built a 3D printed house for under $10,000 in Texas and it looked nice. Another person also did in California. Some places in African and Arabian countries are already doing this. I know China is on full speed with this. $20,000 on 3D printed house can get you a big house.
It seems kind of odd that the construction of normal houses has not changed very much for the last half century. I hope technology revolution takes place for the housing market.
Please make this a reality and everyone can have some worth in society i will buy two though as a vaction house and one to live in.Lets make this a reality for all.We as a society work so hard time to live a simple life.So 😎bring this to america.Love the music and thank you for sharing a dream.
not really sure.. unless this is used to build multi storey appartment complexes this does not seem to be a mass solution at all..and honestly while this looks futuristic and new, we already have CAD/CAM constructed prefab houses that are build within days, with very limited labor involved.. comparing the cost, we also have to see that these early adaptations are used for very small structures and with that, pricing in conventional building systems, especially highly automated prefabrication systems are compareable.. computer aided design and computer added manufacturing in combination seems to be the key.. but that is not something "new"..
If you are unsure of how to pronounce a word or name , you can paste it into Googly Translate and press the button that looks like a speaker. In the case of the Dutch company you mentioned, you will probably need to tell Google what language it is, but for languages with different alphabets or characteristic diacritical marks, it can usually guess.
I think this is only a good application for an unmanned type of constrcution, maybe on other planets or similar. The small house like in the video you could probably build faster than 24 hours with bricks, a few skilled people and good, fast curing materials.
Do not forget the increase of freedom (more ways to solve problems as options to optimization problems) and, of course, the immaturity of the technology (present stage results are only provisional).
Or you could get a skill, work hard and be rich. These solutions are for the weak and will only feed more profits to corporations. Don't be fooled by these ridiculously low stated prices. $1000? Dont be stupid.
@@flatstuff1630 Don't you be stupid. :) Advising people on the internet if you know nothing about them :D The technology is cool and everything usually progress, so I do not see why this could not be wise and affordable choice in the future. It shouldn't be, but it could be.
It will be one more method but not the only one at all. It isn't as versatile as they try to advertise, plus the foundations can't be 3D printed and the MEP's can be assembled but not printed
Tahnee Thompson yes ok, but just because you can, doesn't mean it is best. We indeed can 3D print them now (just like the colt 1911 I guess). It is just not worth it and I think it will never be. MEP's are assembled from die cast plastic parts and extruded PVC tubes that cost almost nothing and are fast. 3D printing a piping seems to me hardly better than assembling it But I totally credit you the infinite possibilities that 3D printing can cover
For all those responding negative to this technology. Making critiques like "its too small", "round is not efficient for usage", "my construction crew can do it as fast", .... You are seriously missing the point that this technology is in its infancy. All technology begins slow and inefficient but over time it gets better, many time exponentially fast. If you are not now envisioning a world with less and less workers and cheaper houses you are seriously going to be in shock how quickly the world is changing. If I told you in 1990 we would have a computer the size of your phone, capable of being mobile nearly everywhere with 100x the computing capability as your new pc many would have scoffed much like you are scoffing today at 3d printing, self driving vehicles and drone delivery systems. The workers are the ones that are going to struggle in this new world. Jobs are being trimmed off already due to technology and no one seems to notice it's only going to get worse. If only some one had made a scientific model that would explain this phenomena perhaps people would better understand the ramifications. Oh, shit, someone did, 150 years ago but the American ego doesn't allow us to listen.
No he wouldn’t. Cats dislike science fiction fantasies. They like real things, like warm cozy places. And to jump and scare other, ususpecting cats passing by.
It won't progress until the walls it makes can bear the weight of the roof. Notice the interior wood supports for the one house, that he calls made of dirt and has a cozy interior. If it cannot support the roof, how is it going to perform in a high wind? A flood?
This is just the beginning, really. Do you think we will see 3D printed houses of great size and for those who can afford more? Is this the future for all of architecture?
Apis Cor has one piece of technology that these other company can't seem to grasp: A little spatula on the nozzle so they can print flat walls. The other houses look like big poop emojis
Sum Ting Wong round houses look much better, plus the sooner everyone gets one, the sooner the secondary manufactures (furniture companies, and whatnot) will be able to accommodate with round furniture

The foundation takes months. When they finally get to it, the rough carpentry is done in three days. Then, months waiting for the rest. Maybe these things will be worked out over time.
"foundation takes months" where are you seeing this done that takes this long? From a treeless lot to finished foundation with basement shouldn't take more than 2 weeks, three tops. I've worked on half a dozen 2000-3000 square foot houses with 4 other guys. We had the excavator dig out the pit in less than a week. We set up the footer forms, laid out the rebar and poured the footer in one day. Three days to set Fox-Block ICF (Insulated Concrete Forms) wall block forms and set the rebar. Then a day to pour the walls inside those foam forms. One day to set any underfloor drain pipes, rebar/mesh and pour the basement floor.
@@michaelg4931 Yep, things go fast when you are doing it yourself. When you hire other people, you are stuck with their schedules, not yours. And with different contractors, with different priorities, everything takes forever.
@@christianlibertarian5488 I was working for a contractor. If the contractors are taking too long, the General Contractor (AKA The Builder) isn't doing his job and needs a talking to or to be replaced.
A 3000 square foot home from ground breaking to weather tight shell should be to that point in under 6 weeks.
@Bainsworth They have pumper trucks which are similar to what you describe. The pumper truck is fed by concrete trucks. This is the combination used in the ICF (Insulated Concrete Form) construction I've been involved in. It would be extremely difficult for a person to manipulate the hose effectively to be able to create what is being shown,
It's all down to design. If the house is made from timber frame or even 3D printed bio plastics and plant based infil the weight is reduced reflecting in the size and volume of foundations. Conduit, electrical boxes, plumbing, aperture lingings and formers can be set in framework prior to printed infill.
Modular rebar cages could be performed off site with concrete pumped in mere hours. Heavy plant equipment is already being developed to be automated so one day it will be a case of downloading a cad file and watching an IOT construction infrastructure get to work with humans just setting up, snagging and finishing.
Perhaps in the future hollow beam frameworks that services can be run through will exist. Doors, windows, second fix, bathrooms and kitchens could also be installed far quicker if design and installation of wastes, services and fixings are pre installed or services cavities are provided.
Plastering robots are already being developed and we know automated painting is not much of a challenge its been in the car industry for decades.
It's early days but it is the future especially in compact urban environments. No one would have ever guessed that GSM push button mobiles would be superceded by devices that allow us to manage all aspects of our personal and professional lives on. The futures bright but it's not concrete and oil based materials.
is there 3d printing house in the philippines?
Am curious to know how long it takes before the concrete mix is fully dry, water-tight etc., the "dirt" house known more as "cob house" needs to dry before adding more layers etc but maybe this slightly different?
I am thinking of a late career shift to architecture. Studied art design and theater then sold designer furniture. But I want to make unusually shaped houses.
Thinking about buying a 3d printer. Any recommendations on what the est printer would be for beginners/advance
This guy deserves more views
To be honest i really want this to happen as in the Uk its very hard to buy your own house as costs seem to keep rising as-well as the purchase price continues to rise. It is looking harder and harder to buy on this market, which it shouldn’t be as shelter is a important thing that everyone needs and shouldn’t cost more then 1 years expenses
Cool idea. But how do the structures hold up considering concrete loves to crack with heat/cooling cycles and there are no expansion joints.
Do they build these houses in Florida and Maryland?
at @3:51 does this project done ?
truly exciting !
from a construction worker, it is about time. The construction industry is 1,000 years behind, until now ! So many archaic practices. The homeowners suggest things and I say: That's a good idea ! It is a force preventing development. Over the years I would see and actually be able to buy things that would then disappear when they were a threat to the mafia ownership of the firms making the garbage we use today. Two things off the top of my head are the socket wrenches that could not strip and the dust masks that nurses use. Still today, there is no working mask to protect a worker from toxic fumes. The one they sell does not work and is stupid expensive. And the workers have no choice. The methods and materials used in typical stick build residential construction are I believe 90+% unrecyclable. It is insane ! And it is so inefficient also... painting everything when an aluminum house was designed by Jacque Fresco in 1948 that could be built in a few hours and snapped together ! That's what I'm talking about and it was completely hidden and squashed. He came up with it because he was an inventor and realized there are all these aluminum plants ready to produce the materials at that time ! Here's a video about him ! th-cam.com/video/Yb5ivvcTvRQ/w-d-xo.html Hopefully you've seen it but since he was so active and I did not even hear about him until 2013, well if you haven't I am not surprised. It's the same as people not ever hearing about Elon Musk or Tesla, or Solar City, or Spacex. The news papers and tv are simply mafia out for the destruction of mankind and the earth they've made that perfectly clear. Never mention anything good basically when the real news should contain ZERO bad news if we are to have people grow up and engage in this world together ! Thanks for this video. This is REAL NEWS !
This is a video that will have millions of views ! If someone with a heart ever controls TH-cam that is.
Can these printers work on the moonor Mars ... great vid peace out
I'm sure they would.
I remember reading a paper about concrete on Mars. They said it would be stronger and could be more easily reused.
I know i'm late but there's actually a design for a martian habitat using the soil from there and a 3d printer!
Can you print cement Dome homes??
I love this, can hempcrete be used in these printers?
No mention of Fast Brick Robotics in Western Australia? They have just successfully completed construction of their first house using their on site robots that make bricks and lay them. I see a future with the 3D printing technology but aren't as enthusiastic with the current designs. That can easily change of course.
Hey Doug, I love Fast Brick, I did a video on them about a year ago. Maybe I’ll do another one at some point!
I agree. The designs with the completely impractical rounded walls are very off-putting to me. Not from an aesthetics standpoint, but for purely practical reasons. I image piping to be a nightmare in a home without a straight wall. Not to mention appliances, furniture, flooring and all the custom windows and doors.
@@totalermist again, the industries will adapt, they have to or they will lose profits
eventually it would get to the point where furniture and windows that fit straight walls will have to be custom made
@@tahneethompson6012 And again, all this rests on the assumption that _actual_ 3d printed houses will be round and that 3d printing will become a major factor in housing in the first place. Here's a project that's already beyond the prototype phase and will be rolled out at scale: www.businessinsider.com/3d-printed-homes-constructed-icon-new-story-tech-charity-4000-dollars-2018-3?IR=T
Notice how they decided to go with straight walls, off-the-shelf windows, doors, plumbing, and furniture. I wonder why that is. Maybe it has to do with their goal of keeping cost to a minimum?
Another overlooked (or dare I say conveniently ignored?) issue are regulations, codes, zoning laws, and safety standards. The main reason I chose ICON over dubious claims of Chinese firms like Yingchuang Building Technique Co. Ltd. (Winsun - 3dprint.com/38144/3d-printed-apartment-building/ ) is full compliance with local housing regulations and standards in the US. Most communities in the developed world have strict regulations when it comes housing no matter the construction method. Experiments like the Dutch Project Milestone have the express purpose to test acceptance, viability, and integration of these new techniques into existing communities. This also means that cost isn't the driving factor there and regulations don't apply in the same manner as elsewhere.
As soon as you put it all together (safety standards, codes, zoning, interior fittings, plumbing, etc.), 3d-printing in its current state doesn't provide benefits over prefab houses if you don't choose the most cost efficient approach according to experts (see ariesbuildings.com/3d-modular-housing/ ). Given that the current targets for 3d printed housing are the developing world, emergency housing, and experimental architecture, I don't see any incentive for the (furniture-) industry to adjust to free-form 3d printed houses.
Over two years later and there are a couple dozen building companies pursuing 3D printing. Dubai is taking it seriously. I feel like I'm that kid in the late 1950s waiting for flying cars to happen in my lifetime.
Over 50 years ago, technology put men on the on the moon, but we still haven't figured out how to mass produce a super-affordable, energy efficient, sustainable house. If they can get 3D printers to squirt out some eco-friendly substance that lasts, is structurally sound, stands up to heat, cold, the sun and aging it could revolutionize home building.
Instead, most builders rely on trees for wood to embed in the walls and roofs of houses for framing, yet there has to be a way to stop this. I think the most promising is finding an inexpensive, non-toxic binder for soil, which a few companies are working on. Or, building in a factory using waste plastic which somehow gets rendered non-toxic.
tbh, the pandemic really effected the market. But i am sure 3d printing will become more common. I am an architecture student and I chose 3D printing as my topic for my dissertation. Every day I find new journal articles about 3d printing. wish me luck :)
How is the insulation of these materials? Would another insulation material need to be printed in between the walls?
You could probably just inject insulation as needed, but as these buildings could be made airtight, the still air between the walls would be a fairly decent insulator as it has about as much thermal conductivity as standard foams and such.
@@kayrosis5523 just don't make it too air tight. Still need to breathe. 😉
@@RedSlashAce
Not so much now, older houses had to breathe more, but now houses are being designed and built differently. Installed ventilation is more important with newer designs than old houses because they dont leak air as much thanks to things like expanding foam insulation and other innovations.
RedSlashAce concrete has tremendous insulation properties. Of course you can spray the voids with foam insulation and exceed R-80+
2:40 the 2nd piggy built his house out of straw and the wolf huffed and puffed...lol the only designs I'd trust is apis and icon.
Thank you for the video
When is gonna be available

Just discovered your videos, love your editing in these videos man, they have the same quality of a big channel like ColdFusionTV, I know it's only a matter of time till you get the same amount of subscribers as him ! I truly believe that, keep up the great work !.
Thanks so much Elliot!
3d printing is the future of manufacturing in general. Once they reach that crucial breakthrough that helps them speed it up significantly.

great video...and content
Hello NeoScribe. Where did you get that track on this video at. I love it.
Hi Christian, I got it from Artlist!
I like the idea of non conventional construction in housing but question if banks would be willing to make loans on these types of homes. Even if they can be built and sold at lower prices, most people still would not have enough cash saved up to bypass the loan process.
Thanks for an interesting, well made video. Please consider making your videos longer, 10-15min or so.
Where can I buy the 3D printer and price
You have an incredible voice, do a one off video reading a short novel😂😂
I love your channel!!
Lol thanks so much!
Are there any companies that 3d print houses in Canada?
There’s been huge tech news all over the spectrum this year. AI is progressing rapidly and Boston Dynamics are releasing their first robot next year. Plans to colonize the moon and mars.... the Future is looking amazing!!!
Absolutely
Glad to see someone is sharing my point of view
Ruben Verster We Also need to consider the negatives.Lots of jobs will be lost.
This is great. I love it.
Thanks for research love your content! Only one thing it is difficult to hear your words when high volume music keep intruding. Could you just use your voice at least turn the music volume way down. I turn on your video for 3D printing news.
Someone built a 3D printed house for under $10,000 in Texas and it looked nice. Another person also did in California. Some places in African and Arabian countries are already doing this. I know China is on full speed with this. $20,000 on 3D printed house can get you a big house.
It seems kind of odd that the construction of normal houses has not changed very much for the last half century. I hope technology revolution takes place for the housing market.
If I want buy full establishments how many cost. I am from Bangladesh.
I would love to have one how do i go about getting one
Very interesting, but what about the insulation factor?
Cheers, Patrick
It can't come soon enough!
Please make this a reality and everyone can have some worth in society i will buy two though as a vaction house and one to live in.Lets make this a reality for all.We as a society work so hard time to live a simple life.So 😎bring this to america.Love the music and thank you for sharing a dream.
Need this in paradise california for disaster relief. A lot of houses just got burned. Maybe red cross or something could fund it?
Concrete would usually require some rebar doesn't it?
not really sure.. unless this is used to build multi storey appartment complexes this does not seem to be a mass solution at all..and honestly while this looks futuristic and new, we already have CAD/CAM constructed prefab houses that are build within days, with very limited labor involved.. comparing the cost, we also have to see that these early adaptations are used for very small structures and with that, pricing in conventional building systems, especially highly automated prefabrication systems are compareable.. computer aided design and computer added manufacturing in combination seems to be the key.. but that is not something "new"..
If you are unsure of how to pronounce a word or name , you can paste it into Googly Translate and press the button that looks like a speaker. In the case of the Dutch company you mentioned, you will probably need to tell Google what language it is, but for languages with different alphabets or characteristic diacritical marks, it can usually guess.
I am intrigued by the technology and if there is a wating list in Atlanta Ga. Sign me up.Tired on renting. Looking for something to call my own.
I got 30 achers and would love to havee something like that built here seminole oklahoma ?????
so, how soon can we print megastructures?
reminds me of episode from eureka ,when they printed several bodies
I think this is only a good application for an unmanned type of constrcution, maybe on other planets or similar. The small house like in the video you could probably build faster than 24 hours with bricks, a few skilled people and good, fast curing materials.
Do not forget the increase of freedom (more ways to solve problems as options to optimization problems) and, of course, the immaturity of the technology (present stage results are only provisional).
People get tired. I can print for 24 hours non stop and print 24 hours the next day. A human body is weak after 3 hours
This is possibly only way I will be able to obtain house in the future..
Or you could get a skill, work hard and be rich. These solutions are for the weak and will only feed more profits to corporations. Don't be fooled by these ridiculously low stated prices. $1000? Dont be stupid.
@@flatstuff1630 Don't you be stupid. :) Advising people on the internet if you know nothing about them :D The technology is cool and everything usually progress, so I do not see why this could not be wise and affordable choice in the future. It shouldn't be, but it could be.
But can 3D printed houses be designed and build to resist earthquakes? I ask as I don’t see any steel reinforcing being printed here.
It will be one more method but not the only one at all. It isn't as versatile as they try to advertise, plus the foundations can't be 3D printed and the MEP's can be assembled but not printed
can't be 3d printed yet*
Tahnee Thompson yes ok, but just because you can, doesn't mean it is best. We indeed can 3D print them now (just like the colt 1911 I guess). It is just not worth it and I think it will never be. MEP's are assembled from die cast plastic parts and extruded PVC tubes that cost almost nothing and are fast. 3D printing a piping seems to me hardly better than assembling it
But I totally credit you the infinite possibilities that 3D printing can cover
I Wonder how much it would cost me to have one built for the size I want..
This is cool would like to this this scaled up and build towers. Now that would be cool
For all those responding negative to this technology.
Making critiques like "its too small", "round is not efficient for usage", "my construction crew can do it as fast", ....
You are seriously missing the point that this technology is in its infancy. All technology begins slow and inefficient but over time it gets better, many time exponentially fast.
If you are not now envisioning a world with less and less workers and cheaper houses you are seriously going to be in shock how quickly the world is changing.
If I told you in 1990 we would have a computer the size of your phone, capable of being mobile nearly everywhere with 100x the computing capability as your new pc many would have scoffed much like you are scoffing today at 3d printing, self driving vehicles and drone delivery systems.
The workers are the ones that are going to struggle in this new world. Jobs are being trimmed off already due to technology and no one seems to notice it's only going to get worse.
If only some one had made a scientific model that would explain this phenomena perhaps people would better understand the ramifications.
Oh, shit, someone did, 150 years ago but the American ego doesn't allow us to listen.
Someone please tell me the background music?

Hi.I am living California Lancaster. I want build a house. How can I contact your office.
Hey guys, do you have any literature for me? I want to do something with 3d Printing for the University and need some advices. Thank you
where do i invest?
I would love to design and live in a 3D printed house.
My cat would love it too.
Didn't think about the design aspect - people could completely design their entire house how they like, cheaply!
No he wouldn’t. Cats dislike science fiction fantasies. They like real things, like warm cozy places. And to jump and scare other, ususpecting cats passing by.
The problem most standard homes were never the expensive part, it’s the land their on.
It won't progress until the walls it makes can bear the weight of the roof. Notice the interior wood supports for the one house, that he calls made of dirt and has a cozy interior. If it cannot support the roof, how is it going to perform in a high wind? A flood?
have you ever seen Geo-engineered dirt? this stuff is kinda similar in that it has immense strength and won't collapse easily
Hey I like the black & yellow logo
I want a concrete condo in Crete.
All craftsmanship, hands-on skill and beauty will be lost. Have fun with your dystopia.
This is just the beginning, really. Do you think we will see 3D printed houses of great size and for those who can afford more?
Is this the future for all of architecture?
Great vid you deserved more subs tho
Thanks!
Apis Cor has one piece of technology that these other company can't seem to grasp: A little spatula on the nozzle so they can print flat walls. The other houses look like big poop emojis

I really hope/can’t wait for this to go mainstream, however, no one wants a round house.
Sum Ting Wong round houses look much better, plus the sooner everyone gets one, the sooner the secondary manufactures (furniture companies, and whatnot) will be able to accommodate with round furniture
What will be neat is when they can show the computer a picture of what they want and the printer prints that.
