Applications Of CC And Ethical Issues
Applications Of CC
a) Commercial applications
Hundreds of thousands of people are killed or injured annually at the construction sites. Then contour crafting is a computerized and robotic technique, which prevent the harmful effects to the human. The common injuries that happended to the workers commonly in work site such as head injuries, spinal cord injuries and bone fractures. Then, CC prevent the type of accident in site. Commonly after the construction process, there is a lot of wastage of materials. Thus it is harmful for the nature and also other conventional methods takes lot of time for the construction process. The CC is done through the 3D printing technology. Then the CC technology which prevent the environmental impact and removes the wastage of materials. Thus this will leads to the total cost is low and also the wastage of time is less. The labor problem is the one of the main problem that facing by the construction industry now a days. Then this technology minimize the number of labors of the construction site. Also the woman and elderly people can take part in the construction industryю
b) Low income housing
The developing countries in which the population is increased five times more than the developed countries. So, the developing countries in which more than 90% of the population is take place. So the people in the developing countries they cannot afford the population when compared to the developed countries. Because they have no money or any other facilities. Then more than one billion people not have the proper house. Then the cheap and faster characteristics of the CC provides the solution for this condition. By using this technology fully functioning house can be developed with in 24 hours. Then this will leads to solve the current and future population housing problems.
c) Emergency housing
During some times, the people lost there houses due to war, natural disaster or economic crisis. Then it is very difficulty to afford the population at that time Then at that time the contour crafting method can be used It can create a fully functional house with in a day. Also these type of houses in which plumbing and heating works can be done. (iv) Space colonies The people are studying about the outside the boundaries of earth. Thus contour crafting is the best solution for the extraterrestrial construction. Then, this was approved by NASA. Then, the contour crafting uses the materials that availalble on the site. There for, then this technology is the best method for the outer space colonies.
Ethical issues
The main problem of the CC is the labors lost their jobs. Then there is less chance to approve the labor unions in this type of technology. The CC prevent the deaths & injuries also it causes the unemployment of the people.
