MIT Engineers Create 3D Printable Glass Bricks That Can Withstand the Same Pressures as Concrete Blocks
A team of MIT engineers has invented recyclable glass bricks that can withstand similar pressures as standard concrete blocks.
'Brain-breaking' glass bricks are 3D printed, reusable, and strong
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 materials are used over and over again.
Engineers 3D print sturdy glass bricks for building structures
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.
Can We Construct Entire Buildings with Recycled Glass? MIT Engineers Are Testing the Limits
“Glass is a highly recyclable material,” says Kaitlyn Becker, an assistant professor of mechanical engineering at MIT. “At the end of a structure’s life, these glass bricks can be disassembled and reassembled into something new, or even remelted and printed into another form.”
MIT develops recyclable 3D printed glass blocks for construction
The team points to glass’ optical properties and its “infinite recyclability” as reasons for turning to the material. © 2024 TechCrunch. All rights reserved. For personal use only.
Trash to tower: MIT engineers 3D-print LEGO-like glass bricks as tough as concrete
Inspired by the sustainable possibilities of circular construction, MIT engineers are creating a new type of reconfigurable masonry using 3D-printed, recycled glass. Leveraging a custom 3D glass printing technology from MIT spinoff Evenline,
