IIT-Hyderabad installs 3D-printed bridge on campus

Sangareddy: A 3D-printed bridge has been installed on the campus of the Indian Institute of Technology- Hyderabad (IIT-H) at Kandi in Sangareddy district. The concept and design were developed by Prof KVL Subramaniam, faculty at the department of civil engineering and his research group. The bridge was off-site printed by Simpliforge Creations, a startup company specialising in providing 3D concrete printing solutions.

According to a press release, designed as a pedestrian bridge, the full-scale 7.50 m long bridge was field deployed after load testing of a smaller prototype bridge. The bridge has been designed broadly following optimisation to minimise the use of concrete and reinforcement. The concept of the bridge was developed broadly following ‘Material follows Force’ and the reinforcement/shape have been determined from stress analysis. Several advances in material processing and design methodology are highlighted in the bridge design, the release said.

The prototype bridge serves as a technology demonstrator for 3D concrete printing in developing lightweight, rapidly deployable bridges and structures that are form optimised for specific applications, the release added. .
