Abstract

The implementation of innovative concepts, such as digital concrete production and process automation, could lead to an increase in productivity and a reduction in material requirements in the concrete sector. The global interest and scope of research and innovation activities in this field has been growing exponentially in recent years. High-quality digital manufacturing concepts are already being developed worldwide and successfully used to print some buildings. This article provides an overview of the existing developments in concrete construction and highlights the open questions and challenges.
