Topic: Additive Construction – Industry Overview
Webinar Description:
The construction industry is progressively embracing additive construction from making small parts to large structures. As this technology advances, it promises to become an increasingly viable supplement to traditional construction methods. The term additive construction (AC) has been coined to describe technologies that build large-scale structures layer by layer. Applications of AC cover all construction sectors and expand to large-scale real estate projects, elements of buildings, entire structures, civil infrastructure, and disaster relief. AC also encompasses relevant areas of architecture, engineering, robotics, and project and facility management.
Who Should Attend (Desired Audience):
Anyone who is interested in gaining a first-hand knowledge of Additive Construction technology and want to get involved in driving this technology.
Learning outcomes:
After completing this webinar the attendees will achieve a broad overview of:
- Additive construction history
- Market growth
- Potential opportunities
- Type of Additive Construction solutions
- Key considerations for Additive Construction adoption.
