Arup Develops Affordable 3D-Printing Sand Casts for Complex Steel Structural Elements
Arup's? research into alternative production techniques and materials has focused on the potential of 3D printing metal in the construction sector. Complex and individually designed steel structural elements can be efficiently produced ?resulting in endless possibilities in mass customisation, weight reduction, product integration and more.?

Complex and individually designed steel structural elements can be efficiently produced ?resulting in endless possibilities in mass customisation, weight reduction, product integration and more.? Working with the Anglo-Dutch company 3Dealise, their 3D-printed sand molds are used in the traditional casting process to create sophisticated, unique structural steel nodes as a certified material. Sand printing offers a quick technique that can reuse the materials and allows costs to be kept low.

3D printing/additive manufacturing (AM) in the building industry has extreme potential; smaller structural elements produced this way can carry the same structural forces and loads as standard elements due to their irregular shape whilst cutting waste and minimising carbon footprint.Arup's new manufacturing method is in response to their 3D printing technique for structural steel which formed the metal structure layer by layer.
