Description

The country's first on-site 3D-printed home has been built in South Auckland's Waiuku While a small number of 3D-printed concrete houses have already been built in New Zealand, this is the first one to be constructed entirely on-site. The four-bedroom house was built layer by layer using a computer-controlled concrete pour. The result is being billed as an energy-efficient, durable home constructed in a fraction of the time and with minimal waste. Amcrete director and experienced Master Builder Kirill Ilin talks to Jesse.
