Title: On-Site Manufacture of Large Cement Structures

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1571844· OSTI ID:1571844

ORNL worked with GE Renewable Energy to develop additive manufacturing capabilities that enable the manufacture of large cement structures on-site. This project resulted in the testing and definition of the materials and deposition functions necessary for an on-site additive manufacturing system. Test articles were manufactured using a medium-scale prototype system, and mechanical testing of the samples was performed.
