A material that got its start in the Arizona desert is showing up in science journals with astounding reports that it could transform our buildings and infrastructure. That's because Ferrock has ...

In this video, learn how to build a round concrete "river" coffee table using conventional Quikrete concrete, rebar, and a welded steel three-legged base. If a welder is not available, wire the rebar ...

The global scarcity of fresh water has prompted increased interest in alternative water sources, such as treated wastewater (TWW), for concrete production. This study evaluates the effects of TWW on ...

In this video, I explore making concrete tables for the first time, focusing on white concrete tops to contrast with white oak and sapele bases. I achieved the desired look and finish, ensuring a ...

Concrete might seem like an unlikely hero in the fight against harmful carbon pollution, but thanks to one engineer's groundbreaking work, it could be a major player in building a cleaner future.

For this reason, the concrete is poured around an array of vertically-oriented lengths of steel rebar. Those reinforcing rods end up running through all of the layers, from top to bottom, boosting the ...

Researchers have created a graphene-enhanced, 3D-printable concrete that improves strength and reduces carbon emissions by 31%, advancing sustainable construction. Researchers from the University of ...

DETROIT — Two years ago, on Aug. 17, Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal woke up on a cold operating table. Dr. Neal ElAttrache, one of the best surgeons in the world, had just sliced into his ...

Not only could the new process help sequester CO 2 from the ever-warming atmosphere, it also results in concrete with uncompromised strength and durability. "More interestingly, this approach to ...

High CO2 emissions from the cement and concrete industries can be dangerous to the environment. The method offers a way to significantly reduce CO2 emissions from the cement and concrete industries, ...
