Additive Manufacturing in Construction
AMC TRR 277

People

is a doctoral researcher at the TT Professorship for Digital Fabrication within TUM. With background in structural design and engineering, he will develop strategies for using mobile robotic systems performing extrusion-based AM on construction sites. Fundamentally, this work is interdisciplinary, and he therefore strives for a high degree of collaboration within, but not limited to, the TRR277.
