I saw this yesterday, so cool! They've had 3D concrete printers for a while now too. I saw those for the first time 6 years ago. You can actually print an entire house!

It wouldn't work here, but in areas where there's no seismic activity you can use fiberglass, carbon fibre, etc additives to give the concrete some tensile strength.

Given now that 3D printers can print directly with Titanium, I think that a printed house would be ok.
