3D printing glass bricks. Circular construction aims to reduce the need for new materials by reusing and repurposing building components, thereby minimizing the construction industry’s ...

In the latest move towards more sustainable construction, engineers at MIT have come up with an ingenious way of producing 3D-printed, reusable bricks – but the material they’ve chosen might ...

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.

The team printed prototype glass bricks using soda-lime glass that is typically used in a glassblowing studio. They incorporated two round pegs onto each printed brick, similar to the studs on a LEGO ...

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 ...

MIT 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.

MIT engineers are aiming to make construction more sustainable by developing reusable bricks made from 3D-printed recycled glass. The approach follows the principles of “circular construction ...

The European Space Agency created 3D-printed bricks inspired by LEGO made from 4.5-billion-year-old meteorite dust, a significant step toward lunar construction.

The U.S. Army has started using 3D-printed lego-like bridge parts in order to rapidly assemble infrastructure in combat zones.

As DesignBoom notes, each 3D-printed brick was specifically customized to fit over the e-bike’s frame and wiring to conceal anything that did not support the overall LEGO look.

In the latest move towards more sustainable construction, engineers at MIT have come up with an ingenious way of producing 3D-printed, reusable bricks – but the material they’ve chosen might ...

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 ...
