A company recently moved into a 3D-printed house in Heidelberg. According to the responsible Kraus Group, the house is "currently the largest 3D-printed building in Europe" and is made of "100% recyclable material". It is 54 meters long, 11 meters deep and 9 meters high and its façade is reminiscent of waves. According to the Kraus Group, the house was built in just a few weeks; various media report a construction time of 140 to 170 hours. The design for the 3D house was created by "Mense-Korte ingenieure+architekten" and "SSV Architekten". PERI 3D" is responsible for the 3D printing and a special cement was developed for 3D printing. A researcher from the Technical University of Dresden points out that the concrete used is not yet entirely environmentally friendly due to possible long transportation routes.
