Using a 3D printer that works with molten glass, researchers forged LEGO-like glass bricks with a strength comparable to concrete. The bricks could have a role in circular construction in which ...

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 ...

Prefer Newsweek on Google to see more of our trusted coverage when you search. The U.S. Army has developed "Lego-like" concrete bricks in order to rapidly construct bridges during military campaigns.

It is a fact of life that 3D printed parts from an FDM (fused deposition modeling) printer have weaknesses where the layers join. Some of this is due to voids and imperfect layer bonding, but you can ...

Scientists have used LEGO brick assembly techniques to design launch pads and shelters for Artemis program astronauts visiting the moon. Their pioneering approach involves using meteorite dust to 3D ...

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 ...
