• Productivity of digital fabrication in construction: Cost and time analysis of a robotically built wall (2018, background): “A well-known example from 74 the first category is Contour Crafting, a robotic structure for 3D printing large-scale construction, 75 developed at the University of Southern California (Khoshnevis, 2004).”
• Developments in construction-scale additive manufacturing processes (2012, background): “Contour Crafting has been in development for some years [15, 19-22], and is based on extruding a cement-based paste against a trowel that allows a smooth surface finish created through the build up of subsequent layers.”
• Mega-scale fabrication by Contour Crafting (2006, result): “However, the benefits of construction automation has not been significant compared to what has been experienced in the manufacturing industry (Khoshnevis, 2004).”
• Additive manufacturing of concrete in construction: potentials and challenges of 3D concrete printing (2016, neutral): “2012), whereas the Contour Crafting reports a layer thickness of 13 mm resulting from a Ø 15 mm nozzle (Hwang and Khoshnevis 2004).”
• 3D printing trends in building and construction industry: a review (2017, background): “Such approach enables a deposition of higher layer thickness without significantly compromising the surface finish (Khoshnevis 2004).”
• Variable property rapid prototyping (2011, background): “Such for instance is the contour-crafting technology, which is designed to 3-D print habitable constructions made of concrete in relatively short periods of time (Khoshnevis 2004).”
