Dubai Future Foundation (DFF) achieved a Guinness World Records title for the world’s first 3D-printed commercial building in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
This further establishes UAE as a record-breaking country with over 400 records to date.
The building measured at 6m (20 feet) high, 36.57 m (120 feet) long, and 12.19m (40 feet) wide and was created with just one 3D printer.
The building took 17 days to print and 3 months to build and adjust the interior design. The building required 50 percent less manpower to complete when compared to traditional methods of building.
Furthermore, printing the building produced 60 percent less construction waste.
The record-breaking office is now home to the Dubai Future Academy (DFAc), a knowledge hub that aims to train and prepare new generations that can master emerging technologies.
This all falls under the Dubai government vision of becoming the world’s most innovative city by 2021.
