As the demand for more sustainable construction grows and raw material shortages like steel continue to be a challenge, fiber-reinforced concrete has become an increasingly popular choice for ...

The carbon fiber is woven into a mesh, or as a composite ... combined in a composite to produce a concrete structure much lighter than traditional steel-reinforced ones. If you page through ...

The core of MESH's expertise lies in the software that processes the data and calculates the robot's movements. It can generate the reinforcement cage of a free-form concrete wall at ... rings made of ...

ETH Zurich spin-off MESH uses robotics to automate complex reinforcing steel assembly, enabling intricate designs and ...

The reinforcing steel—rods, bars, or mesh—absorbs the tensile, shear, and sometimes the compressive stresses in a concrete structure. Pre-stressing is a process of adding tension to concrete ...

The Steel Products segment includes steel joists and joist girders, deck, fabricated concrete reinforcing ... piling products businesses, and wire mesh. The Raw Materials segment consists of ...

Traditional concrete structures rely on thick slabs laden with steel reinforcement to handle structural loads. But researchers with ETH Zurich have pioneered an alternative—a vaulted concrete ...
