Printed Farms, known for – among others – completing Florida’s first permitted 3D printed house in Tallahassee, announces the successful completion of an even more impressive undertaking: The printing of a very large luxury horse barn has been completed. Printed Farms used Cobod’s BOD2 construction 3D printer for the job.
The equestrian facility boasts a total floor area of 10,105 SF/ 939 m2 and a height of 13 ft / 4 m. The total length of the building is an impressive 155 ft / 47 m, and the width is 83 ft / 25 m. Situated in Wellington in Southern Florida, the large 3D printed building has been constructed to withstand extreme local weather conditions including hurricanes and tropical storms.
The build process involved five moves of the printer with the two sides completed twice and the middle section executed once. Philip Lund-Nielsen, Cobod Co-founder and Head of Americas remarked from the company’s facilities in Miami, Florida, close to the project: “Printed Farms has done a remarkable job in completing this massive structure and the project demonstrates again how 3D printing is transforming the construction industry for the better. Cobod is proud to be technology supplier to yet another record-breaking 3D printing project on US soil which comes only shortly after the completion of the US' first 2-story 3D printed building in Texas, also using our BOD2 3D printer. We are especially proud to observe our 3D printers being utilized for a broad range of applications besides housing, which is the industry’s predominant use case. Our machines dominate this space already, but are in addition also used to print turbine bases, schools, office buildings, data centers, silos, and more – now that horse barns are added to the list”.
