Madco3d LLC, a firm that specializes in architect-led 3D printed concrete construction, is set to unveil a series of novel projects and collaborations that mark notable advancements in sustainable building and environmental restoration. In the coming weeks, the Madco3d team will gather in Brooklyn, NY, to construct an 18′ doorway demo, 3D printed at their New Hampshire production and manufacturing facility, as a part of a 14-story high-rise designed by company president Adam Kushner.
Simultaneously, Madco3d is developing a new 3D printed coral reef/seawall design, which will be showcased to a visiting U.S. Senator who has shown a deep commitment to environmental issues. The initiative demonstrates the company’s dedication to applying 3D printing technology toward ecological preservation and protection.
Madco3d’s environmental initiatives extend into the marine biology sphere, where they are collaborating with biotech firms and marine biologists to develop biosynthesized or bio-optimized coral. The cutting-edge research seeks to enhance the ecological benefits of their 3D printed reefs, and this has offered a promising avenue for coral restoration and ocean conservation.
The company will be featured in multiple upcoming presentations to the American Institute of Architects (AIA). The Madco3d team plans to highlight their latest achievements and ongoing projects in 3D printed construction and environmental restoration.
This will include information about the firm’s pivotal collaboration with the UNH Olson Advanced Manufacturing Center, renowned for its work with NASA, the Department of Defense (DOD), and other innovative entities. Such partnerships focus on pushing the boundaries of 3D printing technology and its applications in both construction and environmental sustainability.
Another exciting development for Madco3d is the chance to work closely with a senior design team from UNH to create rapid disaster housing solutions using 3D printed concrete. The project is designed to address the urgent need for resilient and quickly deployable housing in disaster-stricken areas, and the Madco3d team is ready to demonstrate the potential of 3D printing in responding to global challenges.
The company is also responding to the growing interest and demand for sustainable building solutions. Madco3d is working on a diverse range of projects based on client requests, from hotels and housing developments to accessory dwelling units (ADUs), landscaping elements, and innovative 3D printed roofing methods. There is currently a demand for well over one hundred of these homes in New Hampshire alone, and the team at Madco3d is ready to prove their versatility and their ability to meet the evolving needs of the construction industry with sustainable, technologically advanced solutions.
“For us, success in these endeavors reflects a willingness to follow a new, often unknown path using science, experience, creativity, intuition and collaboration to develop and implement a positive life experience that touches as many lives as possible,” says Madco3d LLC vice-president Dan Bernard; president Adam Kushner is an architect/builder in NYC with over 35 years’ experience who says he wants to “solve housing.”.
Kushner, Bernard and the team at Madco3d – composed of engineers, developers, sustainability professionals, and creative thinkers – believe that 3D printing technology has nearly limitless potential in both the construction industry and environmental restoration efforts. Their work suggests that there are significant practical applications of this technology, and that it has the potential to tangibly impact the way we build our future and restore our planet.
