People rarely inquire too much about the materials that were used to build Egypt’s pyramids, whether they are the three enormous ones at Giza or the lesser ones at Saqqara or Dahshur. Nevertheless, a variety of materials were employed to construct both the pyramid and the burial complex of which it is a part.
The primary components are sandstone, wood, raw brick, granite, syenite (a depleted granite), limestone, and granite. The wood originates from woods in the Nile delta or more remote regions in the south of the country, while all the stones are taken from various quarries.
The Egypt Building Materials Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
For the first time in Egypt, the most advanced 3D Printing Construction technology is now available thanks to an exclusive agreement between Orascom Construction and COBOD International, a company based in Denmark.
In addition to being more cost- and time-effective than conventional construction techniques, this new technology is also more environmentally sustainable because it lowers resource consumption, construction waste, and carbon footprint.
The cooperation will primarily concentrate on three business lines: project execution, equipment sales, and operation and maintenance. This is done by utilising Orascom Construction and COBOD’s dominant positions in their respective industries (O&M).
The cooperation will also keep looking into different ways to use 3D printing to produce complete buildings on the Egyptian market.
The first one-, two-, and three-story buildings in Europe were constructed using COBOD printers, which have already been used in numerous nations throughout the world.
