Defence infrastructure
Rapid, repeatable and deployable 3D concrete printing for protective infrastructure, accommodation blocks and operational facilities in demanding conditions.
Why 3DCP fits defence work
Defence infrastructure often requires speed, repeatability, durable construction and the ability to deploy in locations where conventional construction is slow or difficult.
MiCoB's defence work has helped mature the platform because these projects force the material, robotics, process controls and site execution plan to operate as one system.
Delivered applications
Published work includes border bunkers, desert bunkers, underground bunker and control-room infrastructure, G+1 and G+2 accommodation buildings, a high-altitude defence facility and an air traffic control facility.
Sensitive project details are intentionally published at a controlled level, with imagery and naming subject to client and security clearance.
