Thixotropy Management in PVA Fiber-Reinforced Mortars for 3D Printing Applications
Three-dimensional printing (3DP) has attracted growing attention in the construction industry due to labor shortages and the need for greater efficiency. However, there have been only a few previous studies focused on mixture design strategies that address the thixotropy of fiber-reinforced mortars for 3DP.
