ABSTRACT
The revolution in biological sciences and bioengineering has created an environment in which the advances in the life sciences are not only amenable to, but require, the active participation of modern engineering. This revolution, along with the advances of design and manufacturing, CAD/CAM, information technology, biomaterials and biomedicine have emerged a new field of Computer-Aided Tissue Engineering (CATE). CATE enables the application of advanced computer-aided technologies and biomechanical engineering principles to derive systematic solutions for solving complex tissue engineering problems Three dimensional printing (more commonly referred to the abbreviation 3DP), a tool for Solid Modeling is a type of rapid prototyping system developed by MIT in the late 1980s which turns the 3D data into a physical model for conceptual evaluation. The paper described both the colored and uncolored versions of "cut-on-the-stack" lamination on a self-replicating 3D printer and was widely distributed from April 1987 to April 1991. Using an adapted inkjet printing system, layers of a fine powder (either corn flour or plaster) are selectively bonded by "printing" a water-based adhesive from the inkjet print head in the shape of each cross-section as determined by a CAD (computer aided design) file.3D printing - also known as "rapid prototyping" - transforms a blueprint on a computer into a real object by building up a succession of layers. The material is bonded by either fusing it with a laser or by using alternating layers of glue. Three-dimensional printing technology is used to build physical models from sketches, blueprints, 3D scans, CAD Files and many other formats. Using a computer and proper software, a 3D mesh is created to represent the object to be printed. This mesh data is then sent as many thin horizontal slices to the printer, which interprets the data and joins together liquid and powder materials to form complex parts layer by layer. Threedimensional printing is the least expensive rapid prototyping process, which turns the 3D data into a physical model for conceptual evaluation. Where an ordinary printer lays down a single layer of ink on a single sheet of paper, these printers add the extra dimension by printing layer after layer in a vat of starch or plaster until you have a physical model identical that accurately reflects the original design. Parts with a wide variety of sizes, strengths, flexibility and surface finish can be produced with this method.

Introduction
INTRODUCTION
Capturing and modeling 3D information of the built environment is a big challenge. A number of techniques and technologies are now in use. These include EDM, GPS and photogrammetric application and also remote sensing applications. In this paper, we discussed 3D printing technology, which can acquire high density point data in a accurate, fast way. Therefore, it can provide benefits for refurbishment process in the built environment. The scanner can digitize all the 3D information concerned with a building down to millimeter detail. A series of scans externally and internally allows an accurate 3D model of the building to be produced. This model can be sliced" through different planes to produce accurate 2D plans and elevations. This novel technology improves the efficiency and quality of construction projects, such as maintenance of buildings or group of buildings that are going to be renovated for new services. Terrestrial laser scanning is the use of a ground based device that uses a laser to measure the three-dimensional coordinates of a given region of an objects surface automatically, in a systematic order at a high rate in near real time. In the bad old days (in some places as much as a full decade ago), when designers designed a product or a part, they normally had to take the plans to a machinist to have a prototype made, to validate (e.g.) ergonomic data and fit between components. Three dimensional printing ( more commonly referred to the abbreviation 3DP ), a tool for Solid Modeling is a type of rapid prototyping system developed by MIT in the late 1980s which turns the 3D data into a physical model for conceptual evaluation. And was widely distributed from April 1987 to April 1991. . In a digital age however, when design itself is now almost entirely digital everywhere around the world, it can and should quite simply be just the 'Print' button of one's computer that addresses this task. And indeed, this process of producing material objects from 3D Computer Aided Design is pretty widespread today and commonly known as 3DP.

PROCESS OF 3-D PRINTING
In this case these models can be strengthened by infiltrating with wax, and ink can be added to the initially transparent wax to produce parts that have a variety of colours.
Fig 2.4 Block Diagram of Basic Working 2.3 Important considerations at the time of Printing :
Print jobs are costly and time consuming. Careful planning will eliminate wasteful prints. There are a number of important considerations to take into account when designing a model for printing. 'Design for 3D printing' is somewhat different than design for other forms of manufacturing.
Accuracy: The printer accuracy is about 0.25mm in the horizontal plane, and about 0.5mm vertically. The finest feature that can be printed is about 0.5mm. Change orientation to maximize the accuracy in your critical dimensions. Scale: Parts are most effectively printed laying down, so avoid parts that do not fit in the recomended square if possible. Consider printing your model in parts or reduced scale, so all parts can fit. Strength: Material properties of ABS are similar to plastic. However, because the printer deposits material in fibers, the actual properties are more similar to hardwood: They depend on the orientation of the fibers. Consider printing your model in parts, so that each part can be printed in an orientation that maximizes its strength. Moving parts: If you are planning to print pre-assembled mechanisms (e.g. assembled prismatic, cylindrical or ball joints), leave 0.4mm between surfaces that move relative to each other. Consider printing your model in parts, then assembling the parts, if you require tighter tolerances in your model joints. Support material removal. The printer uses washable support material to fill in temporary gaps and to construct scaffolds for printing overhanging structures. The support material is washed away using detergent after the print is complete. Allow adequate pathways for the water to seep in to flush out the support material. Do not leave support material sealed in closed or nearly closed cavities: add openings if necessary. Consider printing your model in parts, so that overall support material use is minimized.
Cost: Material cost is approximately $20 per cubic inch (both structure and support materials). It is not necessary to hollow out large volumes to save material - the printer does that automatically. However, there are many other ways to reduce material (and consequently print time). Whenever possible, use large chamfers, fillets and cuts to remove material that is not structurally necessary. Print time: Print time is roughly proportional to net print volume, at about 2 hours per cubic inch. Part orientation may also dramatically influence print time so consider several options before you proceed. Part orientation: Before sending your part to the printer, consider various orientation to maximize resolution and minimize required support and print time. Consider printing your model in parts and optimize the orientation of each part individually. Testing. It is advisable to print uncertain portions of your model to verify they print correctly, before printing the entire model. For example, if your model is large and has a joint in it, print just the joint first to make sure it works, before printing the entire model
