3D-printed bridges withstand 9.0 quakes

It’s an exciting time in the world of civil engineering and construction. The advent of 3D printing technology has now made ...
A team of researchers in China have carried out a new experiment to test how well a 3D printed concrete house can withstand ...
With the popularity of 3D-printed homes rising, University of Bristol scientists are using the UK’s largest shaking table to test their durability against earthquakes. As a rapidly emerging technology ...
Using a COBOD printer, 3DCP Group and Progreso have built what they say is Guatemala's first 3D-printed tiny home. The palm leaf roof-topped unit was designed to resist 9.0-magnitude earthquakes, ...
The scope of 3D printing has gotten much bigger over the years, so much so that 3D-printed buildings are on track to become less of a novelty. A team of scientists from the UK, more specifically ...
Three-dimensional fault models are generally more accurate than two-dimensional line models at sending ground shaking alerts to the correct areas as part of an earthquake early warning system, ...
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – Despite the ever-looming threat of a major earthquake hitting the Cascadia Subduction Zone, efforts to reinforce Portland’s Burnside Bridge have been delayed. Multnomah County ...
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – Wednesday marks the last day Portlanders can weigh in on the final design for the city’s Earthquake Ready Burnside Bridge Project. Survey participants will get to consider ...
Earthquakes create ripple effects in Earth's upper atmosphere that can disrupt satellite communications and navigation systems we rely on. Scientists have now used Japan's extensive network of Global ...
The researchers are working on a soil treatment that focuses on activating microbes to reduce groundwater saturation levels – they believe it could become a cost-effective, long-lasting solution to ...
