The waiting list of council homes
Increasing with each year
The number of homeless people in

Even in the developed countries
There is a need for faster construction
Of homes that need to withstand
The climate change effects
Large 3-D printing machines can
Build a floor of houses within days
All sorts of complex structures are
Built with 3-D printing technology
3-D printed homes made with concrete,
Hempcrete, and other materials show
Good thermal and insulation properties Make homes cooler inside in hot areas
Cost savings are possible with no plastering, With lesser manual work
Multiple homes can be constructed faster
It can solve social housing issues
If governments adopt this technology
It is ideal for constructing small houses
3-D printed homes could be a cheaper solution for social housing demands. Hempcrete based 3-D printing can be sustainable solution for none availability of sand. Basic structures printing only need human supervision and providing the material. It eliminates labour costs significantly. Avoiding plastering can also provide cost savings. ASME and The Guardian
