Editor's Notes
Digital fabrication is a technology that is being applied in various sec-tors of the industry in the middle east. The application in laboratories is done with the aim to contribute to the modelling of buildings and structure in the field of Architectural Engineering, Mechanics, Bio-technology and more. Companies apply this technology to projects of different complexity. The methodology to be followed in this study is as per the below steps: 1. Literature review on current application of Digital Fabrication in the Industrial Sector in Middle East2. Current application of digital fabrication in UAE3. Digital fabrication of complex structures, material overview4. Findings and resultsThe aim is to analyze the current application of digital fabrication in academic environment such as UAE for a particular project of com-plex structures. Based of the literature review baselines are drawn. The analysis of the current application of the digital fabrication in UAEU creates the base for the focus of this research: 3D printing of Complex structures. The findings of this research can be of great use to the industrial sector but also to the Academic of Engineering College in UAEU.

Although digital fabrication of concrete has been hailed as a path to more environmentally friendly building through more resource-efficient design, the materials it has produced have larger carbon footprints and are likely to be less durable than those used in conventional construction.
In this brief article, a relationship to help understand how a structure affects the environment is introduced, and it is under-lined that the only distinctive environmental benefit that digital concrete offers is shape efficiency. Yet, efforts should still be made to bring digital concrete closer to normal concrete, particularly by adding big aggregates and more accurately describing the durability. [7]

University are still graduating digital analphabets....
The literature review presented in this paper highlights the current state of digital fabrication in the Middle East and its potential for future applications in the construction industry. The discussion section aims to provide further analysis and evaluation of the findings, as well as to identify gaps in the existing research and suggest future directions for investigation.
The potential of digital fabrication technologies in preserving cultural artifacts and building shelters in refugee camps was also explored in the literature review. The use of 3D scanners and printers can offer a reasonably economical method for preserving imperiled, lost, or damaged cultural artifacts. Furthermore, the study on the efficiency of printed shelter cost, time, and energy performances against timber and steel shelters provides valuable insights into the potential of 3D printing for building in refugee camps. Hence, we note the potential of 3D digital fabrication technologies to address humanitarian crises.
In conclusion, the literature review highlighted the current state of digital fabrication in the Middle East. The use of locally available materials in building has been investigated, and it was concluded that the earth-based materials for 3D printing have potential to realize sustainable architecture. The study also showed that the regional curricula is not keeping up with the fast-paced advances digital fabrication. The potential for preserving cultural artifacts and building shelters in refugee camps was also explored.
Based on the analysis of the literature, the applications of the digital fabrications currently are limited. Even though it is a futuristic path, our current technology al-lows a faster development of this industry. The main developments are in the com-plex design of structures, although limited to commercial elements of art. An im-provement in the 3D printing technology is done in the filed of the concrete 3D printing mainly for offices and housing projects. This is promising result for a future application to more complex shapes. Figure 12 shows how the complex design can have infinite forms, as the printing technology in terms of robotics used, materials applied, resistance of materials, cost of materials is in a developing process.
