Learn about Minimass from Andy Coward on the mission to create low-carbon, low-cost, 3d printed concrete beams with 78% reduction in concrete, and 50% reduction in material costs. Approach holds potential to 3D print any compression carrying material for buildings and bridges on Earth and beyond. Topics include: 3D printing with mortar in-situ, sawtooth beam design, materials science <2-10mm aggregates, and more.
