Materials researchers from the Block Research Group at the ETH Zurich, together with architects supermanoeuvre, have revealed a prototype for an ultra-thin, sinuous concrete roof system with an ...

Concrete's strength and structural integrity come not only in its material properties, but also from how it's molded during construction. An architecture student has devised a clever way to build ...

Optimized basalt fiber dosages enhance strength and freeze-thaw resistance in steel slag foamed concrete, offering a ...

The concrete slab can be thought of as the wearing cap for the building pad and base course. A well compacted and smooth subgrade is critical to a successful slab. Slab formwork, jointing details, ...

A new slab/beam system that is claimed to allow for the forms to be removed and transferred on within four days, bypassing the need to wait 14 to 21 days for the concrete to harden first, has been ...
