An MIT team's first result is a model bridge that is 16% lighter than its traditionally made equivalent, with the same load ...

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 ...

We've heard how 3D-printed concrete buildings can be constructed quickly and easily, but could there be an even faster and simpler method? According to American inventor Alex Bell, there most ...

Concrete is the most widely used building material on Earth, and producing it is one of the largest single sources of carbon ...

As architecture continues to shift towards environmental sustainability, the demand for low-carbon materials is increasing exponentially in the construction industry – and the concrete sector is no ...

Concrete is one of the most widely used construction materials, but its production is a significant source of carbon emissions due to the energy-intensive process of cement manufacturing. As the ...
