We are pleased to share the preliminary program of the ConstructAdd Final Workshop, taking place on 01 July 2026, from 09:00 to 17:00, at DNV Italy, Milan (Via Energy Park 14, 20871 Vimercate, Italy).

The workshop will bring together experts from industry, academia, and public institutions to present the key outcomes of the European research project ConstructAdd , funded by the Research Fund for Coal and Steel of the European Union and coordinated by Politecnico di Milano.

🔍 Throughout this one day event, participants will explore the latest developments in steel additive manufacturing technologies, including:
✅ Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF)
✅ Laser Directed Energy Deposition (LDED)
✅ Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM)

📋 Highlights of the preliminary program include:
• WAAM tubular and tension cable demonstrators
• LDED demonstrators and production processes
• LPBF demonstrators for construction and automotive applications
• Component testing and assessment results
• Environmental and economic assessments, including scalability and break even analyses
• Lessons learned and future perspectives towards standardization
💬 The workshop will conclude with an open discussion on the future of metal additive manufacturing in construction and automotive sectors.

We look forward to welcoming researchers, engineers, industry professionals, and stakeholders interested in advancing the adoption of metal AM technologies.
