Jakob Lange, Danish Mars architect at BIG, emphasises that construction work on Mars will involve sintering and 3D printing based on minerals in the subsurface.

Chinese scientists are developing the capability to build a moon base made of bricks formed from lunar soil.

Someday, so might yours. By accelerating the curing process for more rapid construction, this sulfur-based compound could become just as applicable on our home terrain as it is on lunar soil.

Since cement deep mixing piles have advantages of wide applicability to soil types, short construction period, low cost, high degree of construction mechanization, and some soft base have problems ...

The team also developed another construction option using additive manufacturing technology. The researchers invented a 3D-printing robot to print houses using lunar soil.

China has unveiled materials for the construction of a future lunar base that could be sourced directly from the moon and more durable than conventional concrete bricks.

Modern concrete, based on a material known as Portland cement, was developed in England in the 19th century and is the world’s most popular building material by far.
