Researchers have discovered how to make concrete from recycled glass - by turning it back into sand. A team from Australia were able to turn the waste into a replacement for industrial flooring - ...

For over a century, steel rebar has been the go-to material to reinforce concrete but a new approach promises to make the common building material stronger and more environmentally friendly.

One potential cost-effective way to sustain ageing concrete subjected to harsh environmental conditions is to externally coat the material with fiber reinforced polymer composites. But few studies ...

Concrete‐fiber reinforced polymer composite structures represent a significant advancement in civil engineering, merging the compressive resilience of concrete with the tensile reinforcement of ...

The global Concrete Containing Polymer Market is gearing up for a decade of strong growth, with its valuation projected to climb from USD 13.2 billion in 2025 to USD 23.2 billion by 2035, reflecting a ...

While many of us might think that concrete structures such as bridges simply stand unaided for decades at a time, the fact is that they require maintenance as often as once every five years. An ...

In modern society, we find that the majority of our infrastructure (buildings, bridges, tunnels, etc.) is made of ageing concrete. A recently developed cost-effective method of sustaining this ...
