As スポーツベットとは printing technology advances across various fields, the construction sector is focusing on technological development primarily to reduce the labor and manpower needed for concrete construction.
Here, we will review the history of technological development, starting from the スポーツベットとは printing material LACTM to the latest advancements in material jetting スポーツベットとは printing.
-
The development of Laminatable Cement-based Composite (LACTM), a fiber-reinforced cement composite for concrete スポーツベットとは printing, has enabled the スポーツベットとは printing of permanent formwork over 2 meters tall.
