Ah... did you read this?

"We are able to produce concrete onsite, pump it onsite and deliver the wall system to a house onsite"

That's literally all the printer does... the wall system... which is exactly what I wrote.

All of the non-concrete parts still have to be manually installed, the concrete is limited to a specific blend that allows the printer to run without clogging up (which limits the types of structure that can be made), and it can't build more than 3 stories because unreinforced concrete won't stay up without a frame.
