Projects
XHI projects are designed to be visitable, measurable, and replicable. We combine field demonstrations with publishable proof artifacts so agencies, communities, and builders can adopt with confidence.
Featured Projects
Nome 3D-Printed Housing Demonstration
Flagship Alaska demonstration proving feasibility and cost-effectiveness of 3D concrete printing systems under sub-Arctic logistics and code requirements. This is the first 3DCP house in Alaska.
Foldable Arctic Houses
Fairbanks Test Structure Demonstration
In 2024, Xtreme Habitats Institute (XHI) and our partners delivered a major milestone for cold-climate automated construction: a 3D concrete printing (3DCP) demonstration in Fairbanks, Alaska. This effort was designed as a practical, field-based validation step—proving equipment readiness, building local workforce capability, and collecting real-world performance data in subarctic conditions.
XHI Alaska Local 528 Training Event
On February 20-24, 2024, the Alaska Housing Finance Corporation’s hosted a 3D CP demonstration at their facility in Anchorage, delivered in partnership with cement masons Local 528 and XHI. The venue combined classroom space with hands-on fabrication and mechanical training. The week drew more than 100 attendees across the building industry.
This training was built atop Local 528’s field experience working alongside XHI from the Alaska prototype work: the Fairbanks test structure – printed in summer 2024.
