Cost comparisons
between traditional build and 3D printing
Summary
3DBuildingPrint is not only the only faster, more efficient, less labor intensive, ecologically-friendly, 0% waste product
and with less chance of human error – It is also more cost effective
2
Left graph shows the costs for a model 4 bedded house (216 m2), split by the
major areas of expenditure expressed as a percentage of the total build cost
of £115,000.
The superstructure element of the work is by far the most in cash terms. The
major elements of this have been shown in the graph.
The superstructure costs total £37,800 or 33% of the total outlay.
It is predominantly in this area where the 3D printing solution can generate
savings.
3DBuildingPrint use a methodology whereby the "shell" of the house is constructed within a couple of days
This cuts down the on-site labour cost significantly as we are able to deliver the finished article in between 6-9 weeks

Standard house building
Calculations of resources and duration
A single or double story building measured from the top of the foundation over 3m will be legally required to be a double skin wall
(Pavement Expert 2015). This project will be building a house of the height of 5.4 meters and will therefore require double skin
masonry.
A double skinned wall for a 4 bedroom house will use approximately 23,500 bricks, this will amount to 24 packs plus an additional pack
Bricks are achieved by the use of concrete or mortar, whilst the area to cover is 216m2 this can done from a range of prices. Mortar is a
commonly used in construction as it can be a thicker bonding agent. We will need about 53 tubes of mortar 0,33m3 each
An average brick layer is priced at 180 per day. The average amount of bricks laid per person is 500 per day
The average amount of brick layers needed is 2 which average a daily brick laid count of 1,000
In accordance with the above productivity, superstructure will be built in 27 days

As we can see below the costs for a model 4 bedded house (216 m2) will be about of £115,000
The superstructure element of the work is the most in cash terms, at costs of total £37,800 or 33% of the total outlay
£115,000 is lower limit for a such house, therefore our comparing will be close to real
Precise project calculations can be carried out in the near future, in the next stages
But basing on this calculation we can compare Traditional building and 3D Print technology

As we can see below savings for a model 4 bedded house (216 m2) will be about of £38,000
The superstructure element of the work saves about £20,000 or 50% of the total savings, it is mostly labour savings

Comparisons – traditional build and 3D printing
Total building costs, durations and savings for 3D print building
• Above are cost comparisons for traditional build and 3D printing, below – visualization of it
• In this simple modeling case we look at good efficiency of 3D printing technology:
– Less materials costs
– Less days for superstructure works
– Less days we need specialists on site, less labour costs
– Less chances for human errors
• Now we estimate costs on a typical 4 bedded traditional house can be reduced by £38k or 33% and this can be
further reduced as we develop this concept to design houses where the "printer" can perform the construction of
roofs and foundations
• This is a significant step in reducing both cost and time so allowing people to move into a property much earlier than
previously possible and improving any rental income stream if the house is being developed as a "buy to let"
This technology is here now and is definitely the future

Costs reduced by 31%* Days reduced by 37%*
• Site maintenance (toilets, health and safety on site, acoustic walls and machinery)
– Typically a middle house constructed using traditional methodology takes 34 weeks to build. This timeline is driven by a combination
of different circumstance. We aim to have our builds concluded in 10 weeks with a saving of £36,000 based on the weekly site
maintenance cost of 1,500.
• Wasted Trades
– Trades and skilled workman are often delayed because a previous part of the job has not been completed to allow that trade to
follow on
• Additional tools
– The costs of external scaffolding and building higher (any addition costs on top of the bricks and mortar would be) save about £2,250
• Potential financially savings because of speed of build
– Mortgage payments
– Rental payments
– Loan + interest payments
• Less components
– Saving of that less things to go wrong, less chance of going much builds generally to over budget
• Saving on wastage
– Less components can be stolen, gone missing or wasted because not needed in the build.
• The saving of nearly a third or quarter of time
– It is tangible even if the cost of materials are roughly the same
• Also if to be done overseas in third world countries
– The costs would be minimal as you would not have to consider building controls or planning requirements
11
Comparisons – traditional build and 3D printing
Wider vision and perspectives theses
Modeling shows us economy on savings resources like materials and labour wages, it shows time
economy and other savings in other part of building project
But our modeling don’t touch some other sides of new technology
Thank you for attention!

Cost Comparisons 3dbuildingprint vs traditional house methods

  • 1. Cost comparisons between traditional build and 3D printing
  • 2. Summary 3DBuildingPrint is not only the only faster, more efficient, less labor intensive, ecologically-friendly, 0% waste product and with less chance of human error – It is also more cost effective 2 Left graph shows the costs for a model 4 bedded house (216 m2), split by the major areas of expenditure expressed as a percentage of the total build cost of £115,000. The superstructure element of the work is by far the most in cash terms. The major elements of this have been shown in the graph. The superstructure costs total £37,800 or 33% of the total outlay. It is predominantly in this area where the 3D printing solution can generate savings. 3DBuildingPrint use a methodology whereby the "shell" of the house is constructed within a couple of days This cuts down the on-site labour cost significantly as we are able to deliver the finished article in between 6-9 weeks £17,186 £13,749 £26,352 £17,186 £37,809 £17,990 £- £20,000 £40,000 £60,000 £80,000 £100,000 Traditional 3D Print Super Structure Finishes Groundworks Preliminaries Electrics Plumbing & Heating Professional Fees Room By Room £114 574 £76 423 13 7 20 14 14 7 24 20 18 7 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 Traditional 3D Print Super Structure Finishes Groundworks Preliminaries Electrics Plumbing & Heating Professional Fees Room By Room 98 62 – £38 151 – 36 days * -– All calculations will be provided on next pages Costs reduced by 33%* Days reduced by 37%* £10,312 £8,020 £4,583 £5,729 £4,583 £17,186 £26,352 Superstructure £37 809 Room By Room Professional Fees Plumbing & Heating Electrics Preliminaries Groundworks Finishes Super Structure

This project will be building a house of the height of 5.4 meters and will therefore require double skin masonry. A double skinned wall for a 4 bedroom house will use approximately 23,500 bricks, this will amount to 24 packs plus an additional pack Bricks are achieved by the use of concrete or mortar, whilst the area to cover is 216m2 this can done from a range of prices. Mortar is a commonly used in construction as it can be a thicker bonding agent. We will need about 53 tubes of mortar 0,33m3 each An average brick layer is priced at 180 per day. The average amount of bricks laid per person is 500 per day The average amount of brick layers needed is 2 which average a daily brick laid count of 1,000 In accordance with the above productivity, superstructure will be built in 27 days

  • 10. 10 Comparisons – traditional build and 3D printing Total building costs, durations and savings for 3D print building • Above are cost comparisons for traditional build and 3D printing, below – visualization of it • In this simple modeling case we look at good efficiency of 3D printing technology: – Less materials costs – Less days for superstructure works – Less days we need specialists on site, less labour costs – Less chances for human errors • Now we estimate costs on a typical 4 bedded traditional house can be reduced by £38k or 33% and this can be further reduced as we develop this concept to design houses where the "printer" can perform the construction of roofs and foundations • This is a significant step in reducing both cost and time so allowing people to move into a property much earlier than previously possible and improving any rental income stream if the house is being developed as a "buy to let" This technology is here now and is definitely the future £17,186 £13,749 £26,352 £17,186 £37,809 £17,990 £- £20,000 £40,000 £60,000 £80,000 £100,000 Traditional 3D Print Super Structure Finishes Groundworks Preliminaries Electrics Plumbing & Heating Professional Fees Room By Room £114 574 £76 423 13 7 20 14 14 7 24 20 18 7 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 Traditional 3D Print Super Structure Finishes Groundworks Preliminaries Electrics Plumbing & Heating Professional Fees Room By Room 98 62 – £38 151 – 36 days Costs reduced by 31%* Days reduced by 37%*
  • 11. • Site maintenance (toilets, health and safety on site, acoustic walls and machinery) – Typically a middle house constructed using traditional methodology takes 34 weeks to build. This timeline is driven by a combination of different circumstance. We aim to have our builds concluded in 10 weeks with a saving of £36,000 based on the weekly site maintenance cost of 1,500. • Wasted Trades – Trades and skilled workman are often delayed because a previous part of the job has not been completed to allow that trade to follow on • Additional tools – The costs of external scaffolding and building higher (any addition costs on top of the bricks and mortar would be) save about £2,250 • Potential financially savings because of speed of build – Mortgage payments – Rental payments – Loan + interest payments • Less components – Saving of that less things to go wrong, less chance of going much builds generally to over budget • Saving on wastage – Less components can be stolen, gone missing or wasted because not needed in the build. • The saving of nearly a third or quarter of time – It is tangible even if the cost of materials are roughly the same • Also if to be done overseas in third world countries – The costs would be minimal as you would not have to consider building controls or planning requirements 11 Comparisons – traditional build and 3D printing Wider vision and perspectives theses Modeling shows us economy on savings resources like materials and labour wages, it shows time economy and other savings in other part of building project But our modeling don’t touch some other sides of new technology
