EMJ Corporation has partnered with Branch Technology to build the world’s first 3D-printed house. EMJ will serve as the construction manager on record led by EMJ Special Projects and the EMJ Construction Technology department.
Branch Technology, a Chattanooga-based start-up, is home to the world’s largest free-form 3D printer and uses a technology called cellular fabrication, or C-FAB, to bring large-scale designs to life.
Founder and CEO Platt Boyd, who spent nearly two decades as an architect, developed the technology, which prints large structural shapes into cell-like matrixes for maximum strength, efficiency, and nearly limitless options—unlike traditional construction materials and/or designs that were once impossible to actually construct.
