Design concepts for 3D Concrete Printed spiral staircase using SHCC and helical reinforcement

The 3DCP staircase is a joint project by Lauri Hass and Karsten Nefs as part of their PhD studies at TU Eindhoven.

Project: Helical reinforcement for 3D concrete printed structures
Candidate: L. Hass ([email protected])
(co-)promotors: T.A.M. Salet, F.P. Bos (TU Eindhoven), Hendrik Naar (TalTech)
Funded by: Consolis SAS

Project: Strain Hardening Cementitious Composites for 3D Printing: From micro-scale to application
Candidate: K. Nefs ([email protected])
(co-)promotors: T.A.M. Salet, A.S.J. Suiker, F.P. Bos (TU Eindhoven)
Funded by: Dutch national science foundation NWO OTP project 17251 High Performance 3D Concrete Printing.

Materials supplied by Weber Beamix and Kuraray. Mixer pump (duo-mix connect) supplied by m-tec mathis technik gmbh.
The printable SHCC mixture was developed by A.L. van Overmeir, K. Nefs and S.C. Figueiredo as part of NWO OTP project 17251.
The Automated Screwing Device (ASD) is an invention by L. Hass & F.P. Bos (patent pending).
