City-based infratech firm Apsuja Infratech, in collaboration with Simpliforge Creations, an innovative 3D printing construction firm, will construct the world’s first 3-D printed place of worship in Telangana.
The latest innovation will be set up at Burugupally in Siddipet. The temple will symbolise the integration of technology and nature with sustainability. With the latest development the two firms have positioned India as a leader tin 3-D architecture.
The temple will be a three-part structure sprawling over an impressive 3,800 sq.ft, standing tall at about 30 feet, is a unique architectural wonder. The three sanctums, or garbhas within the structure represent a ‘modak’ dedicated to Lord Ganesh, a Shivalay, a square abode devoted to Lord Shiva, and a lotus-shaped home for Goddess Parvati. The structure is 3-D printed by Simpliforge with their in-house developed system and indigenously developed material and software.
This landmark achievement not only showcases the immense potential of 3D printed construction but also demonstrates the architectural freedom and capabilities of the robotic arm system developed by the Simpliforge team, said Hari Krishna Jeedipalli, the Managing Director, Apsuja Infratech.
“With the Shivalay and the modak construction completed, phase II comprising the lotus and the tall spires are already underway,” added Hari.
Simpliforge Creations, a leading turnkey solutions provider in 3D printed construction, has hailed this project as a testament to the possibilities within the industry. “This structure demonstrates the firm’s ability to print 51º and 32º in outward and inward cantilever, respectively, especially while printing in-situ catering to the architectural, aesthetic requirements,” said Dhruv Gandhi, CEO, Simpliforge Creations. “The enclosed dome shaped structures eliminating the need for flat slab roofs paving the way for extra-terrestrial applications which is Simpliforge’s grander vision.”
