The non-profit affordable housing developer, Green Violin, is proposing a 3d printed concrete house demonstration project to be constructed this summer 2022 in Edmonton.

In preparation of the test print a research paper is needing to be written on an environmental scan of the emerging printing machine types (designs) and the housing forms (architecture) that are being printed around the world today. This research paper will be used as the basis for deciding on a machine type for our Edmonton print job. Strong research and writing skills are necessary for this task.

Daily communication during the 14-day project period plus extra communication through emails throughout the weekend is going to be expected so that we can accomplish our task in the short time we have together. Whatever mentorship questions and advice required will be provided to the student. Plus the student will have access to the network of specialists already working on this project.
