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.”
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,
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.
MIT engineers develop 3D-printed glass bricks for sustainable construction
The 3D-printed glass bricks, each shaped like a figure eight, are designed to interlock similar to LEGO bricks. In mechanical tests, these innovative glass bricks demonstrated strength comparable to that of traditional concrete blocks.
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.
Engineers 3D Print Sturdy Glass Bricks
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 reassembl
