Since in our days we can print on a 3D printer, why not build houses that way? And even just for a day. The Russian company Apis Cor was erected in the Moscow region building area of 37 square meters in one day with building a 3D printer of our own design.
The main elements of the building — walls, partitions and paneling — were printed construction mixture. Windows and furniture added after. In total, the house spent 10 134 dollars.
Built house consists of entrance hall, bathroom, living room and kitchen.
According to representatives of the company Apis Cor, their house can stand up to 175 years.
“We want to change the conventional wisdom that the construction may not be the fastest, eco-friendly, efficient and reliable”, — said the founder of the company Nikita Chen Yun-tai.
“Our goal is to become a major international construction company and to solve any problems related to housing around the world.”
It is believed that Apis Cor — the first company that created a mobile 3D printer that can print entire buildings on site.
