A public-works partnership has begun printing two large government school campuses in Doha—each roughly 20,000 m²—using construction-scale additive equipment. UCC Holding is delivering the program with Qatar’s Public Works Authority (Ashghal).
The developer ordered two COBOD BODXL systems with 50 m × 30 m × 15 m frames. After months of site preparation, full-scale test prints, and nozzle development for higher precision, field production started following intensive operator training.
Teams optimized mixes for hot-climate durability and schedule printing during cooler night hours to improve curing quality and reduce daytime dust and noise. Curved, dune-inspired walls showcase geometric freedom that would be costly with conventional formwork. Construction is planned for completion by the end of 2025.
If successful, the project will become a reference for using additive methods on major public infrastructure—not only single-family housing.
