The equestrian facility boasts a total floor area of 10,105 square foot – all constructed with a 3D printer
It has been claimed that the world’s largest 3D printed building has been completed in Florida, US.
US-based Printed Farms said that it used COBOD’s BOD2 construction 3D printer for the world’s largest 3D printed building, a luxury horse barn.
The equestrian facility boasts a total floor area of 10,105 square foot (939m²) and a height of 13 feet (4m). The building’s total length is 155 feet (47m) and its width is 83 feet (25m).
Situated in Southern Florida, the world’s largest 3D printed building has been constructed to withstand extreme local weather conditions including hurricanes and tropical storms. The versatility and benefits of 3D printing technology are also demonstrated through the structure’s 3D printed walls that create a cavity and air gap which provides natural cooling to the building. The process of building involved five movements by the printer, with two sides being completed twice and the central section once.
Philip Lund-Nielsen, COBOD Co-founder and Head of Americas, said “Printed Farms has done a remarkable job in completing this massive structure and the project demonstrates again how 3D printing is transforming the construction industry for the better.”
