Vulcan evolved across revisions
ICON’s May 2021 announcement describes a larger Vulcan than its earlier machines. The dimensions, weight and area claims here apply to that documented revision; the family name alone does not identify a fixed configuration.
House Zero and single-story construction
House Zero was the first project in ICON’s Exploration Series. The announcement positions this Vulcan generation for single-story construction, separate from the later multi-story Titan system.

Model identity and process documented by the manufacturer. No rectangular build envelope or launch year is inferred.
A larger nominal envelope does not establish better print quality. Fit depends on the configuration, usable area, supports, and orientation.
