Watch Our Latest 3D Concrete Printing Trials in Action!

Tuesday, 21 October, 2025

As part ofourConstruct Innovate project“Leveraging the Role of PP Fibres in Maximizing Adoption of3DConcretePrintingTechnology in the Irish Construction Industry,”ourresearch team (Dr. Mehran Khan, Dr. Ciaran McNally, and Dr. Wen Si ) at UCD has been rigorously testing polypropylene (PP) fibre-reinforced mixes usingouradvanced lab-scale facilities. These mixes were then further evaluated through trialprintingin industrial R&D facilities. 

In collaboration with Harcourt Technologies Ltd, this project supports Ireland’s transition toward digitalised and sustainable construction.
