Latest Developments in 3D-Printed Engineered Cementitious Composites: Technologies, Prospects, and Challenges
Engineered cementitious composites (ECCs) are fiber-reinforced materials with enhanced tensile strength, ultra-high ductility, crack resistance, and long-term durability. This review aims to explore the latest developments when combining ECC and 3D printing in depth. It will analyze the main technologies used, the specific properties of the materials employed, the results achieved so far, and the challenges still to be addressed for the wider deployment of these innovative solutions. The goal is to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date overview, highlighting the potential of this technology.
