Claims13
A method for producing a structure from a construction material using a moving device having a mixer arranged thereon, the moving device configured to move the mixer of the moving device, the mixer comprising a drum having at least one inlet and at least one outlet, the method comprising the steps of:
- feeding a first component that is a pumpable building material to the at least one inlet of the drum;
- feeding a second component that includes at least one of an accelerating admixture and a hardening accelerator to the at least one inlet of the drum;
- mixing the first component and the second component in the mixer to produce the construction material;
- conveying the construction material toward and through the at least one outlet of the drum, and
- moving the mixer with the moving device independently in three dimensions to apply the construction material and construct a structure from the construction material.
