First 3D printed building in the world opens in Dubai

3D Printing



3D printing makes another leap into the future with a 3D printed building recently constructed in Dubai. The building titled the "Office of the Future" was made on a printer that measures 20 feet tall, 120 feet long and 40 feet wide. By using the special cement mix in combination with building materials, the construction of the building took only 17 days, cutting labor cost in half compared to a similar sized building constructed using conventional methods. 
A video of the construction process can be seen below
