Engineers Develop 3D-Printed Glass Bricks As Strong As Concrete for Building Structures
Researchers at MIT created a new type of 3D-printed glass brick designed for sustainable circular construction. These interlocking bricks can be easily assembled and disassembled, minimizing waste.
Engineers 3D print sturdy glass bricks for building structures
What if construction materials could be put together and taken apart as easily as LEGO bricks? Such reconfigurable masonry would be disassembled at the end of a building's lifetime and reassembled into a new structure,
Engineers 3D print strong, multilayered glass bricks for building structures
The potential for 3D-printable glass masonry is immense. It could be reused multiple times, serving as recyclable bricks for building facades and internal walls. This breakthrough has the power to transform the construction industry and pave the way for a more sustainable future.
3D-Printed Glass Bricks Can Be Used And Reused Like Giant LEGO For Real-Life Buildings
In the latest move towards more sustainable construction, engineers at MIT have come up with an ingenious way of producing 3D-printed, reusable bricks – but the material they’ve chosen might just surprise you.
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,
'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.
