Robotic prefabrication and 3D printing are set to transform construction, enabling resilient structures in extreme environments and potential Martian habitats.

A gray powder that looks like ash can become something closer to stone when hit with the right beam of light. Engineers have ...

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. What if construction ...

Google Maps has got fresh competition. Using machine learning, computer engineers have developed an interactive map that shows 3D models of the world's buildings – practically every single one of them ...

Step aside, Google Maps; stand down, Apple Maps. Researchers from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) in Germany have created a new online atlas that shows the location of 2.75 billion buildings ...

The construction industry is finally starting to undergo its digital transformation long after many other industries have adopted computerized manufacturing. As the construction industry strives to ...

Building or repairing structures in difficult-to-reach locations is a daunting task, as bringing in the cranes, scaffolding and whatnot can be quite difficult. That's why scientists are creating a ...

Google Maps has had the capability to display buildings in 3D for a while, but now the app is testing the feature to show 3D buildings during navigation on both the mobile app and Android Auto. By ...

We've heard how 3D-printed concrete buildings can be constructed quickly and easily, but could there be an even faster and simpler method? According to American inventor Alex Bell, there most ...

Researchers have created a fleet of bee-inspired flying 3D printers that build and repair structures while flying. The technology, which has been tested in the lab, could ultimately be used for ...
