Navigating the Technology of 3D Printing in Construction
Wednesday, November 17 | 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
CE credit pending approval
REGISTER IN ADVANCE FOR ZOOM MEETING HERE

LLG Architecture has partnered with Precision Building and Renovating and Gulf Coast Additive Manufacturing to bring Florida its first 3D Printed dwelling. Located in Tallahassee, Florida, Sarah Lower (LLG Architecture) and Kyndra Light (Precision Building and Renovating & Gulf Coast Additive Manufacturing) will walk us through the process and challenges of pushing out into this new technology.
This virtual hard hat tour is focused on the health, safety and welfare of building users by exploring the case study’s site orientation challenges on a small tight urban lot and weather conditions in a hot-humid climate with new material and equipment considerations, exploring iterative design processes during preliminary design to meet current IBC requirements without 3D printing standards available in the code, and observing construction administrative challenges and adjustments during a global pandemic.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Participants will identify each type of printer currently available and the value of its material
Participants will analyze the best type of printer to use based on key project elements such as site size and orientation
Participants will discover how to apply current IBC requirements and coordinate with engineers to meet current code requirements
Participants will identify the pros and cons of using 3D printing in construction
