About

Eric Herrmann is a leading figure in digital construction and additive manufacturing for concrete, with a primary focus on Shotcrete 3D Printing (SC3DP). His groundbreaking research has fundamentally advanced the understanding of how process parameters influence the interlayer bond strength of 3D-printed concrete elements—a critical factor for structural integrity and durability. His most-cited work, "Influence of process parameters on the interlayer bond strength of concrete elements additive manufactured by Shotcrete 3D Printing (SC3DP)" (2020), has garnered over 200 citations, underscoring its pivotal role in shaping industry standards and academic inquiry. Herrmann’s contributions bridge material science and robotic fabrication, enabling more reliable, large-scale additive manufacturing for construction. His work is widely recognized for its practical impact, guiding engineers in optimizing print speed, nozzle distance, and material composition to achieve superior bonding. Through his research, Herrmann has helped transform SC3DP from a novel concept into a viable, scalable construction method, positioning him as a key innovator in sustainable and automated building technologies.
