Serendix and the University of Tokyo completed structural experiments on 3D-printed mortar components to move from non-structural formwork to self-supporting status. Scientific results confirmed stable load-bearing performance even after cracking, providing the foundation for Ministerial certification by 2027. This shift allows the printed material itself to serve as the structure, eliminating traditional RC reinforcement and lowering costs. Standardizing this data is key to scaling 3D-printed housing in seismic regions. 🏗️🏠 #3DPrinting #Construction #Serendix #AM #Innovation
