NEW DELHI: Thermocol could be the material of the future for construction of earthquake-resistant buildings even in the most seismic zone with thermal insulation and could also save the energy ...

Thermocol could be the material of the future for construction of earthquake-resistant buildings even in the most seismic zone with thermal insulation as it can resist quakes by reducing the mass of a ...

Buildings in the future could be built using an unconventional material to help them face seismic activities better. This material could be thermocol, as per researchers at IIT Roorkee. Using ...

Thermocol could be the material of the future for construction of earthquake-resistant buildings, according to Indian scientists. It does so by reducing the mass of the building. It could also save ...

Thermocol resists earthquakes by reducing the mass of the building. In this technique, the EPS core and the wire mesh reinforcement is produced in a factory. The building skeleton is first erected ...
