Recycled glass could become part of the next big step in sustainable construction. Scientists from the University of Portsmouth in the UK have discovered that recycled glass powder can effectively ...

Glass isn't as easy to recycle as we might think, so we need as many ways to turn it into new products as we can devise. Researchers at the University of Portsmouth have developed a way to use ...

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. What if construction ...

Scientists have found that recycled glass and lime can strengthen compressed earth blocks. This could be a sustainable alternative to cement for eco-friendly, durable construction materials. Image ...

MIT engineers have used 3D printing to create reusable glass bricks that withstand as much pressure as concrete blocks. What if construction materials could be put together, taken apart, and reused as ...

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 ...
