The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold line has been treading water for a couple generations. But that’s changing in a big way at today's ...

The original models, invented in 1886, were hollow, blown glass bricks. They were used in the designs of some of the era's most famed architects, such as Le Corbusier, and Auguste Perret.

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 ...

Researchers at MIT created a new type of 3D-printed glass brick designed for sustainable circular construction. These interlocking bricks can be easily assembled and disassembled, minimizing waste.

However, the researchers believe that these recycled glass bricks could be a great opportunity to prove just how valuable glass is as a construction material.

MIT engineers have used 3D printing to create reusable glass bricks that withstand as much pressure as concrete blocks. What if construction materials could be put together, taken apart, and ...

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.

It can be risky to divide the cooking space from the living spaces with an opaque barrier, especially for less than roomy kitchens—you lose light and flow. But not with glass block. With proper ...

The system can use glass bottles – so the recycling is baked right in – which are crushed and melted down for the printer to deposit layer by layer. The strongest prototype bricks were ...

The glass bricks are made from soda-lime glass, a type often used in glassblowing studios. Each brick has two round pegs that enable them to lock together without glue.

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.

Engineers Develop 3D-Printed Glass Bricks As Strong As Concrete for Building Structures MIT engineers developed 3D-printed glass bricks for reconfigurable masonry, promoting sustainable circular ...
