Can concrete be 3D printed at a 90° angle—without support—and maintain its structure? Vertico conducted a non-planar printing experiment to test that boundary. As the print continued, the structure eventually collapsed, revealing the current limitations of unsupported overhangs in concrete extrusion. Rather than a failure, this controlled collapse provides valuable data on material behavior, structural thresholds, and print path design—moving the industry closer to achieving greater geometric fr

This machine can smooth 10,000 square feet of concrete — the equivalent of a New York City block — in an hour. | CNBC Technology

A robot which can crawl concrete, stucco, brick and masonry walls without using suction or adhesives. ⁠ The design is inspired by the mechanisms observed in some climbing insects and spiders and involves arrays of microspines that catch on surface asperities. The arrays are located on the toes of the robot and consist of a tuned, multi-link compliant suspension.⁠ The entire foot mechanism is mounted on a prismatic joint with an elastic suspension that allows it to move up to 1 cm in the distal d
