Concrete curing is the process of maintaining adequate moisture in concrete within a proper temperature range in order to aid cement hydration at early stages. This process is incredibly delicate, and ...

Contractors can increase the speed and ease of placing concrete with the latest technologies. But even the most advanced equipment cannot significantly enhance the quality of concrete. To do this, the ...

Engineers at Worcester Polytechnic Institute have developed carbon-negative enzymatic structural materials that outperform traditional concrete while actively capturing CO₂, curing in hours, and ...

Concrete is one of the most widely used construction materials, but its production is a significant source of carbon emissions due to the energy-intensive process of cement manufacturing. As the ...

Cement, concrete’s binder, accounts for about eight per cent of the planet’s carbon dioxide emissions, and concrete’s curing time and required structural supports can inhibit progress on construction ...
