Dublin, June 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Digitalizing The Construction Industry With Additive Manufacturing: An Opportunity Analysis And Ten-year Forecast" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
This first ever dedicated study accurately describes the possibilities and analyzes the enormous transformative potential of 3D printing within the construction industry. The research covers not only the giant global housing market (and rising demand) but also the potential for infrastructural and artistic/archeological applications as significant revenue opportunities.
This new report that examines the market potential for additive manufacturing in the construction industry. SmarTech expects the market for 3D printing in construction to top $40 billion in revenues by the end of the 10 year forecast period.
In this new report, the researcher outlines all the major technologies, hardware, materials and applications that will usher the traditional construction industry into a new, digitalized era. The report goes on to identify and quantify the specific commercial opportunities presented by implementation of AM technologies in terms of hardware, materials, software and AM construction services associated demand and revenues. According to the report, this activity is expected to grow into a $4 billion yearly business opportunity for hardware manufacturers and a highly profitable segment for construction material producers that choose to add digital manufacturing services to their core business. The construction industry could represent as large an opportunity for additive manufacturing as the entire industrial and medical manufacturing industries combined. While the technology is still young, billion-dollar deals have already been signed, bringing these technologies intro futuristic construction projects worldwide. As technologies progress and the industry rapidly expands, some of the largest construction groups are investing to secure know-how and advance the development of new materials and processes.
- Ten-year construction 3D printing opportunity and market data forecasts in volume and value terms. These cover hardware/software, materials, services/applications.
