The world's largest 3D-printed building will soon be a luxury barn in Florida's 'Disney World for Horses' — see inside the $3.3 million project

In this luxury horse barn project, using a printer did save some cash.Ritter says traditional builders constructing this style of barn would have charged between $200 to $250 a square foot.

His team charged around $200 a square foot which he says is low "because for what we build, most people would've charged $250."The building is"almost" flood and hurricane-resistant, Ritter says. It could have been fully resistant if they had included a cement roof but the buyers opted for roof trusses instead.

This concrete construction and a higher level of durability compared to traditional construction could make building and investing in this new tech worth the risk."If you're getting a concrete building that can withstand climate events so you don't have to rebuild after such an event, why not spend that money?" he said.

With how durable Ritter says this concrete printing material is, these horses could be living out the rest of their lives in this 3D-printed barn.
