- More about Sustainable Light Concrete Structures
The book presents new technologies for easy and economical construction of light concrete structures, saving materials and CO2, with super-light technology, pearl-chain technology, and deck-elements produced in six factories. It is of interest to structural engineers, students, and contractors.
Format: Hardback
Length: 205 pages
Publication date: 23 October 2021
Publisher: Springer Nature Switzerland AG
The book presents groundbreaking innovations in light concrete construction, offering efficient and cost-effective solutions while minimizing material waste and carbon dioxide emissions. Through the implementation of the new super-light technology, designers can strategically place forces, maximizing material efficiency while conserving resources elsewhere. This innovative approach aligns with the "Direct Engineering" principle, providing further details and structural principles to support this design philosophy. Moreover, the introduction of the pearl-chain technology enables the creation of optimal shapes, including arches, vaults, cupolas, floating tunnels, and shells, using readily available and mass-produced components. These advanced deck elements are now manufactured in six factories located in Denmark, Finland, and the United States, with plans to expand further. The book holds immense appeal for structural engineers seeking to optimize their designs, students exploring the latest technologies, and contractors and architects exploring innovative building solutions. By delving into these groundbreaking technologies, readers can gain valuable insights into the future of construction and contribute to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly built environment.
