US researchers have developed Enzymatic Structural Material (ESM), a carbon-negative alternative to concrete that turns carbon dioxide into a solid structural asset. Strong and cost-effective, this ...

Growing urban density, aging infrastructure, and climate-driven extremes are intensifying demands on structural safety and ...

Acquire the ability to perform design tasks for building structures. Study advanced connections, complex structures, and system-level building design. Learn advanced techniques to evaluate structures ...

An NUS team led by Senior Lecturer Dr Du Hongjian (left) and Assoc Prof Pang Sze Dai (right) has successfully shown that 3D ...

Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is rapidly emerging as a premier material for precast concrete construction. First introduced as “reactive powder concrete” in the early 1990s, this material has ...

Productivity. It’s not a formula. It’s not material. It’s a concept and one easier said than done. Historically, productivity has been a challenge for the concrete construction industry to tackle.

It seems like every week, I can do an article on some interesting science that ended up buried under hyperbolic headlines and overly credible coverage. This week’s victim is “living concrete.” It only ...

Researchers are transforming recycled cardboard into a strong, low-carbon building material that could reshape future construction practices.

The range of materials that concrete contains, such as stone, chalk, and sand, scatters normal sound waves, making clear ...
