The company "Gazprom Neft" printed an entire house for its workers in the city of Labytnangi of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District using a domestic 3D printer. Besides the house, furniture and decor elements were also printed.
3D printing of such buildings has several advantages over traditional construction methods: construction turns out to be 30% cheaper, and the speed of erection increases by 1.5 times.
The house turned out to be energy-efficient: it allows maintaining a comfortable temperature and humidity of the air in the spring and autumn periods, without requiring heating. In winter, the temperature is regulated by electric heating cords.
