An automated system for 3D printing functionally graded concrete-based materials
Craveiro, Flávio; Nazarian, Shadi; Bartolo, Helena; Bartolo, Paulo Jorge; Duarte, José PintoIn recent years, the interest in developing additive manufacturing (AM) technologies in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry has increased, motivated by the potential to support greater formal complexity. In this context, AM has been largely used to design and fabricate physical parts with homogeneous materials. This paper proposes a new strategy, aimed at the design and fabrication of ...
Automated multi-material fabrication of buildings
Craveiro, FlávioArchitects and engineers are under increasing pressure to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) sector, reducing environmental impacts, material use and costs. Resource efficiency, based on a circular economy strategy, considers an efficient use of energy, natural resources, and materials. The integration of digital technologies into construction proces...
Additive manufacturing as an enabling technology for digital construction: A pe...
Duarte, José Pinto; Bartolo, Paulo Jorge; Craveiro, Flávio; Bartolo, HelenaThe construction sector plays a key role in any country's economy.According to a report published by the World Economic Forum, the construction industry currently accounts for about 6% of the world GDP [1] and is expected to reach around 14.7% in 2030 [2]. Construction is a strategically important sector for the European economy involving a wide range of stakeholders and companies, providing 18 million jobs[209...

Moving Forward to 3D/4D Printed Building Facades
Craveiro, Flávio; Duarte, José P.; Bártolo, Helena; Bártolo, PauloNearly Zero Energy Buildings will require high-performance building envelopes, though the building sector is currently a major contributor to the world’s energy consumption and related CO2 emissions. Innovative advanced materials, such as smart or functionally graded materials are being developed to better adapt buildings to environmental needs. This paper presents a brief overview of novel advanced materials f...
Customizing insulation material properties for building retrofitting : from inf...
Craveiro, Flávio; Bartolo, Helena; Duarte, José Pinto; Bàrtolo, P. J.The European Commission proposed a recast to the Energy Efficiency Directive with a target of 30% energy efficiency for 2030. Buildings are the largest energy consumers sector in EU. To reduce the energy consumption of existing buildings and promote energy efficiency retrofit, it is important to improve the thermal performance of the building envelope, acting on thermal bridges to enhance the optimal thermal co...
