Investigation on process guidlines and geometric capabilities for robust Shotcrete 3D Printing

Advancing additive manufacturing in construction (AMC) requires a clear understanding of feasible geometries
and process capabilities for each technology. This paper maps the measurable design space of Shotcrete 3D
Printing (SC3DP) and proposes a systematic overview linking geometric possibilities and process parameters.
The results define a reproducible method to chart SC3DP capabilities and deliver an overview of geometric possibilities.
The framework supports fabrication-aware design, parameter selection and scaling,
positioning SC3DP as a versatile AMC process for structurally relevant, performance-oriented applications.
