About

Dhrutiman Dey is a researcher at the forefront of sustainable construction materials, specializing in the 3D printing of geopolymer mortar. His work addresses the critical challenge of reducing the carbon footprint of the built environment by developing eco-friendly alternatives to traditional cement-based materials. Dey’s major contribution lies in systematically investigating how mix design and printing parameters influence the mechanical strength of 3D-printed geopolymers. His highly cited 2023 paper, "3D printing of geopolymer mortar: Overview of the effect of mix design and printing parameters on the strength," has already garnered 12 citations, reflecting its immediate impact on the field. This work provides a foundational framework for optimizing printability and structural integrity, enabling the large-scale adoption of additive manufacturing in green construction. Dey’s research not only advances material science but also bridges the gap between laboratory innovation and practical application, making him a key voice in the push toward automated, low-carbon building technologies. His findings are essential reading for students and engineers exploring the intersection of digital fabrication and sustainable materials.
