Sustainable Construction: Printing Buildings with Biomaterials
University of Idaho researchers are working on a new composite based on wood waste for sustainable construction.
The construction sector is one of the most carbon-intensive industries, but a new generation of green concrete could revolutionize sustainability efforts.
University of Idaho researchers are working on a new composite based on wood waste for sustainable construction.
This alternative "concrete" does not crack and allows the disposal of difficult-to-recycle waste in the shape of plastic bricks.
The emergence of innovative materials, often inspired by plants and insects, offers construction alternatives.
The carbon-positive building will automatically seek the best orientation towards the sun and integrate new ventilation solutions to adapt to climate change.
Renewable energy, electric mobility, self-driving vehicles, and pedestrian-friendly routes are some of the project's features.
A new technology project is growing wood fibers from cells, which could reduce tree felling.
Innovative software will use building databases to create new designs capable of synthesizing diverse styles.
