It's expected to make a paradigm shift in construction industry in the next 20 years, cutting materials cost of by 80% and labor by 20%
while executing projects in shorter periods.

Rambie,

The use of 3D printing in the medical field is amazing!

^ Saw that on a TV, not only can they make artificial limbs but hope to "print" food in the near future.
3d printing technology is a revolution in it's own.

Why, you and other Somalis might finally afford to own a house on the outskirts of London.

Susu don't forget construction on rural areas will be far more easier and less costly.
Who knows, maybe a time will come when we can lay down roads in matter of weeks with this technology.

Incredible, this technology has so much potential, there could be a day when houses are built in hours or even minutes. Imagine 3D printing a house that can be made portable, or even whole cities that can manoeuvre from place to place and redesigned and expanded within minutes. This could also be done whilst being in better harmony with nature in comparison with the modern way of doing things.

That's fantastic. Construction people take too long to build roads in the summer anyways. This is good. Progress is good.

why in the summer.

Because of the cold in the winter they do their jobs proper and don't stall for weeks just to squeeze the government's budget..
also physiology tells us that we us humans are angrier and moody far more during the summer hours instead of the during the winter, reason why based notices little issues like tht in particular seasons..

True, but doesn't that mean that manual labour won't be needed and hundreds of people who could have worked will be replaced by machines ? Saving the proprietors money and accumulating cash in the end?
I smell capitalism.

Good point but look on the positive side, people would afford to live in decent condtions instead of this:



Many villages will quickly grow into towns and urban centers boasting construction boom in exchange for less seasonal labor vacancies.

Maybe there will be a time when technology makes it possible for people to not have to suffer extreme capitalism with long working hours. We might get to a point whereby working hours are short and decent living standards are available to everyone due to technology making it possible for people to rest from hard labour. But judging from history, there will always be those who use progress to cause more poverty and slavery due to their small minds. Kind of like those that rule the world today (aka the banks).
