Here’s my opinion. “Typical new U.S. homes cost $60 -100 per square foot. Building walls of ICFs adds $1.00-$4.00 to this figure.” This 3D printed house costed only $15 per square foot or $10,000 for 650 sq.ft. And if they switched the filament to soil cement, then I imagine they could lower costs even more. If you used 7 parts dirt from the site and mixed it with 1 part cement, then you could save a ton on concrete. I assume they fill the concrete form with insulation like spray foam or something, but I honestly have no idea… If you could work the price down to $1-$2 per sq. ft. while maintaining the houses functionalities and comfort, then the homeless would probably be able to afford it and they’d be ecstatic about living there too. Anyways, I wish your company Helping Hedges great success in building low-cost homeless housing. You’re all working for an honorable cause.
