CONSTRUCTION 3D PRINTING SERVICES
Building Construction 3D Printing in the USA
Our construction 3D printing services support a rich source of geometric information for large-scale residential and commercial buildings through construction 3d printing machines and 3D robots on construction sites. We facilitate customized services adopting architecture 3D printing software like Revit, Naviswork, Autodesk Fusion 360, Rhino, Dynamo, and CAD. BimZoom is one of the best 3D printing architecture companies in the USA. 3D Printing is referred to as Additive Manufacturing. Our skilled team of VDC consultants, modelers, and engineers creates building designs for residential and commercial projects. BIM integrated construction 3D printing technology facilitates 4D BIM scheduling simulation, maintaining construction safety and productivity. Construction 3D printing technologies also enable BimZoom BIM consultants to complement construction techniques like prefabrication and modularization.

How Does Construction 3D Printing Work?
- 3D BIM Model Preparation
BimZoom uses CAD Computer-Aided Design or Revit for creating a 3D BIM model of the building for 3D printing. Our experienced drafters and modelers lay down layers by the printer after reading the designs. We can create any shape by fusing the layers and adopting a printing medium, which can be concrete for building construction.
2. Concrete Preparation
3D construction printing encompasses material layering for making objects that range in size, shape, rigidity, and color. The benefit of 3D printing in construction is multiple colors and materials can be worked simultaneously. The concrete material preparation stage is responsible for preparing the material for usage in the 3D printer. Concrete is a more difficult material to work with than other standard 3D printing materials. The material preparation stage includes preparing, mixing, and putting the concrete 3D printing material into a container. During printing, this freshly produced material is injected into the nozzle as needed.
3. Concrete 3D Printing Process
Construction robotic arm systems are frequently used in the process of 3D printing. Because robotic arm systems do away with manipulators, the nozzle now has more degrees of freedom, which enables the printing technique to be carried out with more precision. The structure is “printed” using 3D BIM model data by the robotic arm, which does this by pouring concrete material from its nozzle.
Benefits of 3D Printing in Architecture
The advantages of 3D printing in the construction industry are as follows:
- Flexible & fast design, enabling design & printing of building structures.
- Rapid prototyping & print on demand.
- Minimizing waste, cost-efficacy & ease of access.
- Flawless production, reducing chances of rework.
- Increased process, decreasing the risk of building failures.
- Strong & lightweight parts with heat resistance & durability
- Freedom in design
