Buildability Analysis on Effect of Structural Design in 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP): An Experimental and Numerical Study by Shoukat Alim Khan (16078043)

“…This study reported the fresh-state properties of geopolymer-based materials, and based on these results, numerical modeling for 3DP of geopolymer material was performed. Three cylindrical structures with diameters of 300 mm, 450 mm, and 600 mm were printed, with the same printing conditions, resulting in buildability of 352.5 mm, 322.5 mm, and 277.5 mm (total height constructed before the collapse), respectively. …”
