    Abstract: A residential or commercial building, structure, or building component can include an exterior member, interior member, and plurality of cross-members spatially disposed therebetween. Each of the exterior member, interior member, cross-members can be formed from a multi-layered stack of polymeric material made by a layered three-dimensional printing process, and all can be monolithically integrated. An exterior surface region of the exterior member can have an integrally formed surface finish. Overlying finishing or connective layers can be added. The exterior and interior members can be configured in a parallel arrangement to form a rectangular or curve shaped building block. A fill material can be disposed into openings between the exterior and interior members, and an interior surface region at the interior member can include a cavity configured for an electrical box, plumbing, or a sensing device.

    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are provided for producing a 3d-printable composite material for large scale printing. A method can include receiving a first component comprising a (meth)acrylic monomer or a (meth)acrylic oligomer, or a combination thereof. The method can include receiving a second component comprising a photoinitiator and a third component comprising a polymerization enhancer. The method can include mixing the first component, second component, and third component with a mixing reactor to form a mixture. The method can include filtering the mixture with a filtration unit and removing a solid residue from the mixture. The method can include curing the filtered mixture with a radiation unit into a gel component and a liquid component. The method can include separating the gel component with a phase separation unit and then milling the gel component. And the method can include mixing the gel component, the photoinitiator, the mineral filler and optionally the recycled previously printed composite material to form the composite material.

    Abstract: A 3D printing system can include an extruding system, a curing system, a positioning system, and a feedback system. The extruding system can include a feed pipe coupled to a printing material source and a nozzle having a longitudinal axis along which printing material is extruded. The nozzle can extrude printing material at a printing angle between the longitudinal axis and the top surface of a layer of printing material being printed. The curing system can include light or other curing components configured to cure the printed material after extrusion. The positioning system can include a platform that supports the extruding system and a platform rotating subsystem that rotates the platform during the printing process to adjust the printing angle. The feedback system can include a processor and sensors to detect the location of the nozzle with respect to the 3D printed object or other objects in the printing area during the printing process.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for determining a suitable building layout for a property. One of the operations is performed by optionally, receiving building module parameters for section of qualifying building modules. displaying, via a user interface, a graphical representation of two or more building modules. A user may customize a building layout from the two or more building modules. The system displays an assembled building layout including two or more building modules. The system receives a confirmation of the assembled building layout for 3D printing. Based on the assembled building layout, instructions are generated and transmitted to one or more 3D printers to manufacture one or more building structures based on the selected building layout with potential subsequent modification of the preconfigured positions of windows, doors and walls of the building.
