Boukhelf, Fouad; Sebaibi, Nassim; Boutouil, Mohamed; Yoris-Nobile, Adrian I.; Blanco-Fernandez, Elena; Castro-Fresno, Daniel; Real-Gutierrez, CarlosThis paper deals with the evolution monitoring of biomass colonization and mechanical properties of 3D printed eco-materials/mortars immersed in the sea. Measurements of tensile strength, compressive strength, and Young’s modulus were determined on samples deployed along the Atlantic coast of Europe, in France, United Kingdom, Spain, and Portugal. The samples were manufactured using 3D printing, where six mix d...
