“We’re here at the University of Florida’s College of Engineering at the grand opening of a one-of-a-kind concrete 3D printer ...
Hybrid fiber-reinforced polymer-concrete structures represent an innovative class of composite materials that strategically combine the tensile strength, durability, and corrosion resistance of ...
Engineers developed a new kind of reconfigurable masonry made from 3D-printed, recycled glass. The bricks could be reused many times over in building facades and internal walls. What if construction ...
The precast and prefabricated elements made of concrete (such as slabs, pillars, beams and walls) are part of the constructive process known as modular construction. A construction methodology carried ...
Proper curing is one of the most critical — yet often overlooked — aspects of concrete weatherproofing. Without adequate ...
Building homes and commercial structures for an era of deadlier storms requires a multi-pronged approach including the use of ...
Concrete is an incredibly useful and versatile building material on which not only today’s societies, but also the ancient Roman Empire was built. To this day Roman concrete structures can be found in ...
The modern industrial era was literally built on steel and concrete, readily available materials that gave buildings the strength to stretch hundreds of stories into the sky. Unlike wood, steel and ...
Scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have developed a technology whereby two robots can work in unison to 3-D-print a concrete structure. This method of ...
