Indian Army unveils its first two-storey disaster-resilient dwelling unit

TheIndian Armyhas constructed its first 3D printed dwelling unit in Ahmedabad Cantonment.

这是一种抗灾结构,符合3区地震规格以及绿色建筑标准。一名陆军官员说:“该技术利用了混凝土3D打印机,该打印机接受计算机化的三维设计,并通过挤出专门为该目的设计的专门设计的专门类型的混凝土来以逐层的方式制造3D结构。”

The house comprises ground plus one configuration, according to the officials. According to Indian Army officials, the dwelling unit was built by the军事工程服务(MES)与MICOB PVT LTD,一家使用3D快速建筑技术的总部位于古朱拉特的3D混凝土印刷公司。

The army claims that the construction of the 71-square-meter dwelling unit with garage space was finished within 12 weeks thanks to 3D printed walls, slabs, and foundation. According to an army official, the 3D printed house is a “symbol of contemporary rapid construction efforts” to fulfill the increasing accommodation needs of Armed Forces personnel. This structure also demonstrates the Indian Army’s dedication to the ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan。’

The Indian Army’s Ahmedabad-based Golden Katar Division has been instrumental in furthering the project, which has numerous operational applications.

“The Indian Army units have already dovetailed 3D printing technology in the construction of precast permanent defenses and overhead protection meant for operations. These structures are currently being validated over a period of one year and can be seen being incorporated in all terrains, the recent being in Ladakh,” said the Senior official of the Indian Army.

3D printed constructions around the world

Previously, the MES constructed the first3D印刷房屋在古朱拉特的甘地纳加尔。这两个结构在30天内由基于金奈的建筑启动在30天内打印Tvastaand arereportedly他们在该国的第一个类型。3D打印的房屋是在甘地纳加尔的MES西南航空指挥基地建造的。

此外,美国国防部(国防部)揭示了建造三个临时培训营房的计划,预计每个营房将是美国最大的3D printed structures。The barracks will be built by Texas-based construction 3D printing companyICONand will meet the DoD’s released Unified Facilities Criteria for additive concrete construction. Lt. Gen. Doug Gabram, commander of the US Army Installation Management Command said, “Constructing facilities using this cutting-edge technology saves labor costs, reduces planning time, and increases the speed of construction of future facilities.”

Elsewhere,Alquist 3D, a construction 3D printing company, revealed plans to construct 200 homes in the US state of Virginia. After completing the ‘first owner-occupied3D印刷房屋‘ earlier in 2022, Alquist 3D announced plans to execute the largest construction project realized with this “advanced technology to date”, in Pulaski and Roanoke. Considering the region’s rapidly increasing workforce, it is anticipated to serve as a suitable test bed for demonstrating the efficacy of 3D printing in providing accessible new homes.

Zachary Mannheimer说:“随着大流行,气候和经济问题的转移,普拉斯基等较小的社区有巨大的需求,也是一个非常奇妙的机会,可以为新居民开发负担得起的住房。”。“通过3D打印,这些房屋,Alquist和我们的合作伙伴将加速Pulaski和Roanoke利用当前趋势并吸引新工人进入弗吉尼亚州西南部这个出色的社区的能力。”
