Extracting BIM information for lattice toolpath planning in digital concrete printing with developed dynamo script : a case study

In this paper, a novel method for printing path design in the three-dimensional (3D) concrete printing process (3DCP) has been developed and applied to a large-scale construction process. Despite the large number of research works in digital concrete printing over the last decade, few studies have e...
