Cutting-edge technologies—from AI to self-repairing concrete—are making it possible to build infrastructure that withstands natural disasters and other severe challenges.
The innovative material, simply sprayed onto walls, can retrofit even older buildings to protect them against earthquakes.
It is just a matter of time until this smart and robotic help arrives to the field of construction. Pay attention to these three promising prototypes that we have come across.
A project devised at the University of La Coruña (Universidade da Coruña, UDC) is trying to exploit the insulating properties of this material in order to implement it into an innovative green building model.
Self-repairing and snow-melting concrete, climbing drones, solar roads… Let’s see how technology and engineering get together to build the future.
The first marine tunnel under a mountain will be constructed in Norway, it will be located in the Fjords and comes to solve a maritime navigation issue which even its first settlers were aware of. Learn more about this excavation juggernaut.
This improved steel will become the most durable, non-stick, non-corrosive material known to date.
