Last year, a Walmart in Tennessee constructed a 3D printed addition to its store spanning 8,000 square feet.

* What is a 3D printer? Similar to a traditional printer, a 3D printer uses a computer to create a product but instead joins material together to create a three-dimensional object. They place materials by layering and fusing together layers from the bottom up.

 3D printers have been increasingly used for the construction of buildings and homes. A neighborhood of 3D printed homes was completed last year in Texas.
