It mainly focuses on building schools, clean water and profit opportunities. 3D house was recently introduced in Austin, the capital of the US state of Texas.
He will be in charge of 3D printing of structures Vulcan 3D printer. In only 24 hours can print a whole new home in size up to 800 square meters. The costs incurred in this will be significantly lower than those for the normal construction of a house - the new house will be able to be built for less than 3,000 euros.
Icon has tested all the materials they plan to use when printing houses. These proved to be safe, comfortable and durable.
3D houses could solve many social problems. As many as one billion people in the world do not have a permanent place of residence, so this innovation could help them in some way. This is also the goal set by the producers. At the same time, they also want to hire a new workforce.
