Bridging Technologies: Integrating 3DCP and OSC Through BIM Implementation
The advancing technologies of 3D concrete printing (3DCP) and off-site construction (OSC) signify substantial technological progress in construction, albeit each at distinct stages of evolution. Despite offering enhanced sustainability, reduced labour intensity, and potential quality control improvements, their current utilization remains below their potential, partly due to existing barriers. 3DCP encounters logistical and practical challenges due to its nascent stage, while OSC faces limitations in flexibility, cost implications for late changes, and perceived coordination challenges. This paper explores integrating these technologies within a comprehensive building information modelling (BIM) framework to foster cooperative collaboration and mitigate barriers.
A comprehensive survey of contemporary BIM practices among global structural designers, architects, and BIM professionals was conducted and supplemented by a systematic literature review. This provided insights into prevailing BIM management practices in the architectural, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry, as well as the existing project processes in OSC and perceptions of the 3DCP domain.
Interviews with industry experts from both OSC and 3DCP further corroborated these findings, unveiling ample opportunities for integrating 3DCP into OSC workflows. Notably, the adaptability of 3DCP for late-stage modifications and its capacity for creating freeform structures could counterbalance the perceived limitations of OSC regarding unique shapes and early design freezes. Moreover, leveraging existing OSC logistics and systems presents a seamless integration pathway for 3DCP into industry. Whether viewed in conjunction or independently, it is evident that both systems necessitate an integrated BIM strategy, preferably implemented during the project's conceptual design phase.
In conclusion, the convergence of 3DCP and OSC represents a promising frontier in construction technology. By leveraging the strengths of 3DCP's adaptability and OSC's established logistical frameworks, this integration not only addresses current limitations but also paves the way for a more sustainable, efficient, and architecturally flexible future in construction practices.
