World first: Kamp C is first to print a complete house in one piece
The province of Antwerp, July 7 2020 – Kamp C, the Westerlo-based provincial Centre for Sustainability and Innovation in construction, printed a house using the largest 3D concrete printer in Europe. The 90-square metre dwelling was printed in one piece with a fixed printer. This is a world first.
You can find Flanders? first 3D-printed model home on the premises of Kamp C in Westerlo, Belgium. The two-storey house is eight metres tall and has a floor area of 90 square metres, the average size of a terraced house in this region. ?What makes this house so unique, is that we printed it with a fixed 3D concrete printer?, says Emiel Ascione, the project manager at Kamp C. ?Other houses that were printed around the world only have one floor. In many cases, the components were printed in a factory and were assembled on-site. We, however, printed the entire building envelope in one piece on-site.?
Project partners C3PO printed the house at Kamp C:
The house was printed as part of the European C3PO with financing from ERDF (the European Regional Development Fund). With this feat, the project partners hope to raise interest in the building industry about the use of 3D concrete printing as a building technique.
