The committee aims to develop publications relating to additive manufacturing with cement-based materials. Further goals include collaborating with other ACI committees to disseminate additive manufacturing information and determining ways additive manufacturing may be integrated into the concrete community; collaborating with technical organizations to facilitate and coordinate information sharing;
fostering discussion on research needs and challenges preventing additive manufacturing from wide adoption in the concrete construction community; and developing guidelines to evaluate materials and technology for additive manufacturing.Two sessions were sponsored by the committee at this convention:
Challenges and Opportunities for Scaling Additively Manufactured Concrete from Lab to the Field and Concrete Aesthetics: From Historical Mortar to Architectural Concrete and Coming Advances.
