This book presents the manufacture and development of products from a novel material formulation as a bio-based paper material using 3D printing for engineering purposes. The approach is to optimize the material behavior and the manufacturing process to achieve a high level of quality and accuracy. A wide range of formulations are investigated to select homogeneous pastes with high 3D printing potential for best outcomes. This is accomplished through customization and optimization under the control of rheological behavior and printing parameters. Mechanical characterization is investigated to identify the adhesion and other properties of the paste formulation. Potential applications for the built environment in façade construction are presented, which match the material properties and benefit the most from the complexity offered by additive manufacturing technology.The contentState of ArtPrinting Configuration and PerformanceQuality & Accuracy AssessmentMaterial & Mechanical Behavior3D Models as a Case Study
