On printing biopolymer-bound soil composite
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This dissertation evaluates a novel bio-composite material, biopolymer-bound soil composite (BSC), for additive construction (3D printing) applications. BSC rheological and strength properties are measured and used to predict shape stability and structuration. These material attributes allow designers to determine the required construction time and maximum size of projects, and the rheological properties dictate the required capabilities of the automated construction systems used to build an autonomously constructed element. The goal of this dissertation is to provide the foundational knowledge needed to advance the use of BSC for 3D printing in terrestrial and extraterrestrial environments
