Mix design and fresh properties for high-performance printing concrete
@article{Le2012MixDA, title={Mix design and fresh properties for high-performance printing concrete}, author={Thanh Tung Le and Simon Austin and S. C. Lim and Richard A. Buswell and Alistair Gibb and Tony Thorpe}, journal={Materials and Structures}, year={2012}, volume={45}, pages={1221-1232} }
This paper presents the experimental results concerning the mix design and fresh properties of a high-performance fibre-reinforced fine-aggregate concrete for printing concrete. This concrete has been designed to be extruded through a nozzle to build layer-by-layer structural components. The printing process is a novel digitally controlled additive manufacturing method which can build architectural and structural components without formwork, unlike conventional concrete construction methods…
