DEDICATION
3D concrete printing is an entirely new field and putting it into practice
in real life requires years of efforts. Not only equipment and facilities are
necessary, but trained researchers, industry professionals, and investors are
essential to develop this exciting technology. People who are currently
developing 3D concrete printing are the pioneers in this field whose
perseverance and belief in the technology will definitely be appreciated by
the wider community in the not-so-distant future. This book is dedicated
to all those who believe in the technology and make serious efforts to
make 3D concrete printing a commercially successful technology.
