Robotically assembled building blocks could be a more environmentally friendly method for erecting large-scale structures ...

An innovative second-generation steel-composite modular construction system that is planned for use in GE Hitachi’s (GEH’s) BWRX-300 small modular reactor (SMR) plant could dramatically reduce the ...

Cold-formed steel (CFS) has emerged as a versatile and sustainable material in modern construction, offering considerable advantages in terms of weight, ease of fabrication and enhanced performance ...

Researchers have developed a systematic review that charts the evolution of artificial intelligence in generative design for steel modular structures, particularly steel box modular buildings, ...

MIT researchers have developed a robotic voxel-based assembly system that could reduce the embodied carbon of building construction by up to 82% compared to popular methods. The system uses modular ...

"Designing with Structural Steel: A Guide for Architects" is a new 80-page technical report from the American Institute of Steel Construction. The publication provides architects with a primer on ...

Today, fabrication has moved toward a rigid, data-driven workflow where the digital model dictates every move on the floor. When producing steel components for high-performance mechanical systems, ...

Metalworkers and metallurgists have long appreciated the ability to tailor the performance characteristics of steel (an alloy of iron and carbon), including their strength, hardness, ductility and ...
