About

Jorge Corker is a researcher at the forefront of additive manufacturing (AM) technologies and their transformative applications within the construction industry. His work explores how digital fabrication methods can revolutionize traditional building practices, with a particular focus on reducing supply chain complexity, enabling autonomous production of building components, and advancing eco-innovative construction solutions. Corker's most influential contribution, "Additive manufacturing technology and its implementation in construction as an eco-innovative solution" (2018), has garnered an impressive 339 citations, establishing him as a key voice in the field. This work examines how AM technologies can streamline construction processes by enabling direct translation from digital models to physical structures, minimizing human intervention and material waste. His subsequent paper, "The potential for additive manufacturing to transform the construction industry" (2020), further investigates how disruptive technologies are reshaping industry paradigms, improving technical capabilities, and challenging established business models across sectors. Together, his publications paint a picture of a researcher deeply committed to understanding how emerging manufacturing technologies can address longstanding inefficiencies in construction. His scholarship is particularly valuable for students and practitioners interested in sustainable building practices, digital construction, and the future of automated fabrication in the built environment.
