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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Sustainable construction practices have and will continue to drive design and specifications throughout the building industry. Because concrete remains one of the most used building materials in the ...
Concrete reabsorbs some of its carbon emissions over time. Alternative ingredients and 3D printing could help supercharge that by making the finished concrete more porous.
Wood is, by far, the most common material used in the U.S. for single-family-home construction. But wood construction isn’t engineered for long-term durability, and it often underperforms, ...
