Engineers in Australia have found a way to make stronger and crack-resistant concrete with scrap carpet fibres, rolling out the red carpet for sustainability in the construction sector. The research ...

Engineers at RMIT University in Australia developed a new type of concrete from waste tires. Researchers across the world have been working to replace the materials used to make concrete but most have ...

Researchers have discovered that replacing just 2.5 % of cement with scrap aluminum engine residue (SAER) in foamed concrete significantly increases both compressive strength and thermal insulation, ...
