Abstract
Within a broader project, the research group explores 3D concrete printing (3DCP) to develop energy-efficient, circular wall elements with sustainable insulation. By integrating expertise in 3D printing, circular materials, and robotics, the goal is to reduce material consumption, optimise structural design, and enhance energy efficiency through demountable, insulated wall panels. The authors focus on structural optimization of infill patterns on 3DCP structures to improve thermal performance and understanding the environmental impact through Life Cycle Analysis. This paper aims to investigate 3DCP infill patterns for wall applications based on thermoplastic FDM solutions.
