India’s first 3D-printed post office was inaugurated in Bengaluru today. A video shared by Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, who inaugurated the post office, shows how its construction was completed in just 45 days.

The post office was built with a robotic printer using 3D-printing technology that deposits concrete layer-by-layer in accordance with a computerized 3D model drawing input. Officials said the 3D-printed post office with a built-up area of 1,021 square feet involved a process requiring a delicate balance of concrete properties, including flowability, quick hardening for load-bearing capacity, and sufficient strength to ensure successful printing.
