ABSTRACT
3-D production is an operation utilized to build 3D objects in which the computer controlled production of consecutive layers of a material is carried out. It is possible to create any kind of object by employing the data of digital model. First, this study provides a thorough analysis of the latest developments in 3D building printing technologies. Besides, the many aspects of 3D printing architecture, economics, the environment, and structural details are explained. Examples of 3D-printed constructions are given, and a statement explaining why this study was done in Jordan is provided. As described above, while comparing construction data of a modest building in Jordan, and that of the same building constructed using 3D printing, we may learn about the exact impact of 3D printing. The models in both cases were created using Revit software and another structural engineering software’s. In this research, after learning of the three-dimensional printing technique, mechanism of action, and the impact it has on the future of building and architecture, a better understanding of 3D printing and its ramifications on the future in the field of construction and architecture has been achieved. This, in turn, engineers and contractors to take this concept into consideration while designing building projects in Jordan. After going over the many important findings and after considering everything else, it can be concluded that one of the most significant influences encouraging engineering consulting firms to provide 3D printing technology insurance in the construction industry in Jordan is to restructure the structural engineering and construction sector as well as enforce the government's requirement to increase participation. The contribution of this research has been to provide an efficient view of the effects of 3D printing by comparing conventional construction data for the required quantities in both case studies to the predicted values if the same building had been constructed using 3D printing technology. 3D printing in Jordan saves approximately 50% on concrete costs when compared to conventional construction, according to some estimates.
