First Permitted 3D Printed House in Florida | Printed Farms Strikes Again

  • Over 100,000 people have watched the video of printed farms making their first 3-D printed building in Florida, that was just a two car garage and now they have advanced to building fully permitted home out of 3-D printed concrete in Tallahassee with general contractor Precision Builders & Renovating. They used a cobod bod 2 printer and in this home they printed all of the exterior and interior walls. The roof and appliances will be installed and I’ll do a future video on what the finishings of this home look like. There are many unique details in this project not found in another 3-D printed buildings so we’re going to take a walk around, look at some of the details and then finally share a recorded zoom call with the co-founder of printed farms, Fredrik Wannius.

      ​@@vanderumd11depends on the contractor but in general they can be expensive because many companies are new to it. More experienced builders can do it for less but depending on the area they are very hard to come by. Where 3d printing will be making changes in the industry is more for Access as smaller crews can take on these types of jobs. We don't have enough to meet the demand or do things quickly enough. Look at companies for tiny homes, shipping container homes, boxable. More demand than supply and too slow to satisfy the need.

      @@leestrz4153 understand that boxable isn't profitable, they make their money from Kickstarter and under delivering a product. The owners will run off with the profits like the rest. The CHEAPEST part of a home is the frame. Everything else needs inspection and standard materials. That's plumbing/electric/permits and more. I could build anyone a shed for $30,000 ... You would not feel the same as a $300,000 home. 3d printing is not cheap and they continue to tell you people it's going to be more expensive. An ICF home is easy, better and easy to frame BUT concrete is not cheap at all. Regular home framing is cheaper just not as robust. As a home builder I'm telling you smaller crews will actually not have the investment money for these machines and the maintenance.

    I think this has great prommise. This is easier on the workers involved and I can actually see this making the electrical installation quite a lot easier as well. If we could get a wire that was raited to be encased in the printed wall you wouldn't even have to worry about supports. Just print to 16" drop in your device boxes run the wire along the top edge of the print then have the printer encase the wiring.

      I think installing conduit in the structure would work nicely. You could have multiple separate conduit runs for the 110v for the lights and receptacles, both 15 amps and 20 amp. Also you could have separate conduit for the 220v for the washer/drier or even garage area if someone really wanted workshop that could support bigger equipment. And, most importantly, you could isolate the coaxial from the cable/internet company, and a home network set up with ethernet that has its own paths for hooking up access point, wireless speakers, POE cameras, ect. ect.

    The visual defects are minor, and if they hit them with a grinder and some plaster they should smooth out pretty well. My concern is fitting doors and windows into those spaces - the support structures weren't put in square so they rely entirely on the top support and the distribution of the concrete on those layers. That moisture is a concern too. In a colder environment I'd be worried about the liquid gathering in the joints between layers and freezing, effectively prying them apart.

    I've seen alot of the other videos for 3D printed concrete. It looked like there was too much over-extrusion. They need an attachment for the head to do smoothing but I have seen cleaner walls without any attachments. The other printers had cooling or mist going at the same time they were printing. I bet if they changed formulas on the concrete it would come out a little better. I wonder why they didn't use plate steel or something that can handle the load to bridge the door gaps? Alot of good info in these new videos for sure. I bet that robot arm printer would have been better for this type of work since they had the issues with the trees in the way.

    Do these printers utilize retraction at all? I feel like it could benefit from it if done right. It also looks like a couple of side guards the same length as the layer height would help clean up the sides of the extrusion, but with how the print head rotates it would slice through other printed layers so I see why they just have to kind of deal with the rough shell.

      You cannot retract a liquid (afaik)

    Wouldn't it be possible to add in a troweling function to the 3d printer which would smooth the sides of the layers as it travels?

      @@automateconstruction That's what I was thinking. I have had this idea for a while and wanted to keep it to myself, but i cant afford to buy a 3d printer and experiment like you guys can, So i figured ill just share the idea with you all to make the world A slightly better place :-D

      @@automateconstruction I just devised the beginning mechanism that might work to allow for a trowel based 3d print to happen even when crossing over already printed sections in the path of the printer. I also have some ideas for timing the print perfectly so each layer is perfectly dry as the printer reaches the beginning area again.

    Could I print a tiny version of this house from a .STL on an FDM printer or does your printing system use a completely different print file format to make a house like this? I take it that every time you insert a piece of wood into a door or window opening its the same thing as inserting supports in an FDM print slicer.

      Usually they use .step files but yes you could print the same file.

    There is a long way till faraway.
    Technology is promising and for sure should bring savings in material costs . However, I see this taking
    off when a developer can create the infrastructure for 20-30 houses and then bring a 3D concrete printer and print and finish all units. This way he can make some money in the process.
    I used to work with 3 D printer, I was designing my parts and then creating a prototype semi-functional of course but I was getting an idea if my device has a chance to be manufactured and work according to the specs. I am talking about parts of a few inches across and weighing a few pounds.
    Idea is the same, in this case the material is concrete with certain special properties, at different production stages .

    As an artist the thing that makes the concrete MOST appealing to me is the INCONSISTENCY. QUIT apologizing for it. This is an amazingly STRONG HOME which is just dying to have life spring from it....the contrast will be mind-blowing.

    Adhesion of the first layer is is critical. Use of a glue stick or hairspray can be very helpful in a successful print.

    I have watched a lot of your videos so far. And I understand this technology is in its infancy. But if one has to account for lateral pressures. can't one use two nozzles to print on a upright BRC, cut into segments of the height of the wall to be printed and over lapped.
