Infrastructure degradation presents one of the most pressing challenges facing transportation agencies and facility managers worldwide. Aging roadways, deteriorating airport pavements, and worn industrial floors require rehabilitation solutions that minimize disruption while delivering long-term performance. Ultra-thin concrete overlays have...

For most of architectural history, buildings served their environmental function despite rather than in harmony with natural systems. Construction consumed vast material resources. Manufacturing processes generated substantial emissions and waste. Completed structures often proved thermally inefficient, requiring continuous mechanical...

Bridges represent some of humanity’s most ambitious engineering achievements—structures spanning vast distances while supporting extraordinary loads under dynamic and often harsh environmental conditions. Traditional bridge construction has relied upon steel and concrete—materials perfected over generations, understood thoroughly, and standardized...

The construction industry stands at a critical juncture where environmental imperatives have transitioned from optional consideration to fundamental business necessity. Buildings account for over 40 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions throughout their complete lifecycle—from material extraction and manufacturing...

The construction industry stands at the threshold of a digital revolution, and at its core lies an innovation reshaping how infrastructure is monitored and maintained. Smart concrete sensors represent a fundamental shift from reactive maintenance approaches toward proactive, data-driven...

It is worth noting that concrete fines have been regarded as waste products but now putting them back into the mix and reducing the embedded carbon has shown signs of working. The cross-industry trial, which is funded by Innovate UK...

One of the papers published in the science journal Nature has forecasted that the global construction carbon footprint would double by 2050. The projected trends that have been outlined in Nature’s recent article went on to reveal that the global emissions...
