Development of Concrete Extrusion Nozzle for Producing Free-Form Concrete Panels and Extrusion Test

FCP (Free-form Concrete Panel) is used to easily realize the huge and complex curved surfaces of free-form buildings, and research on FCP manufacturing technology is being conducted. However, as the concrete was extruded manually into the manufactured mold, the precision of the FCP was lowered and errors occurred. Therefore, this study developed concrete extrusion equipment that includes a nozzle part, an open/close part, and a control part, according to the required performance derived from previous research analysis. The mixing ratio of concrete was selected at an appropriate value of W/C 38% and extruded uniformly with a width of 60 mm and a thickness of 22 mm. Depending on the opening/closing function, it was possible to open and close at the desired position. The concrete extrusion nozzle for FCP production is the basic equipment, and miniaturization and automation of the nozzle are required in the future. This is expected to contribute to the development of new free-form construction technology and equipment.
