WASP completed the Itaca project in Italy using four synchronized robotic arms to 3D print 164.9 square meters of earthquake-resistant walls in two days.

Originally reported by Interesting Engineering

WASP completed the Itaca project in Italy using four synchronized robotic arms to 3D print 164.9 square meters of earthquake-resistant walls in two days. This marks the first 3D-printed building certified under European seismic standards, using a concrete-free lime mixture and rice husk insulation. The multi-arm coordination proves modular robotics can meet rigid structural codes while cutting timelines. This signals a major shift toward scalable, bio-based additive construction. 🌍🏗️ #3DPrinting #ConstructionTech #Sustainability #WASP #AdditiveManufacturing
