“Glass is a highly recyclable material,” says Kaitlyn Becker, an assistant professor of mechanical engineering at MIT. “At ...
Using a 3D printer that works with molten glass, researchers forged LEGO-like glass bricks with a strength comparable to concrete. The bricks could have a role in circular construction in which ...
Engineers at MIT have developed interlocking bricks made from recycled glass that could be re-used at the end of a building's lifecycle.
The 3D-printed glass bricks, each shaped like a figure eight, are designed to interlock similar to LEGO bricks. In mechanical ...
The potential for 3D-printable glass masonry is immense. It could be reused multiple times, serving as recyclable bricks for ...
What if construction materials could be put together and taken apart as easily as LEGO bricks? Such reconfigurable masonry ...
The team points to glass’ optical properties and its “infinite recyclability” as reasons for turning to the material.
To date, about 90% of fish resources worldwide have already reached their sustainable fishery limit. Meanwhile, intensive ...
Walmart and Alquist 3D, a provider of 3D concrete printing, have collaborated to produce one of the largest free-standing, 3D ...
