Original Abstract Submitted
a computer-implemented method is employed for actuating a 3d printer for an additive manufacturing method, in particular filament printing, of structures of a building with concrete or other construction materials. the method may include reading in a 3d model via a cad interface, in which model the structures are represented in an identifiable manner in structural data in a first design format, reading in printer parameters via a printer interface which parameters represent requirements and/or design specifications of the 3d printer and executing a structure conversion algorithm which uses the structural data represented in the first design format to calculate filament structural data in a second design format for a filament structure on the basis of the printer parameters which have been read in. control instructions are calculated based on the calculated filament structural data, and the calculated control instructions are transmitted to the 3d printer for the purpose of control.
