Publication
by “1st international conference on 3D Construction printing” Committee invites you to SUBMIT ABSTRACTS on theoretical, empirical and practice-based 3D printing in construction applications. Abstracts (Max. 400 words) should be submitted as a MS Word file before 30 April 2018. Only one abstract submission is allowed per registration. Any additional paper may be considered as a poster and will incur an additional fee. Electronic Conference Proceedings will include both accepted abstracts and posters. Successful authors, who their abstract is accepted, are encouraged to submit their full papers. A link to full paper submission and the paper template will be available in due course. Potential papers will be selected to be considered for publication in prestigious “Automation in Construction” journal. We are currently working with a Scopus-indexed publisher to publish the rest of full papers as Conference Proceedings.
