Precision computer-controlled near-concrete material is applied layer by layer by an apparatus with material feed, various controls for shaping in three dimensions, electronic connections, and for larger applications it uses lattice-like tower elements for support and control of the configuration. Consider a "CC Apparatus" of the appropriate size for contour crafting an industrial building. The initial cost is $215,000 and may be sold in year t for 0.6^t of the original price.
