A team of German scientists used 3D laser lithography to print microscopic trusses and shells that are as strong as steel — and lighter than water. The objective of the research is to someday create ...

The vast majority of floor trusses in homes are made with wood, at least in part due to its strength, light weight, cost efficiency and ease of installation. Engineers at the Massachusetts Institute ...

In this video, the process of reinforcing casts using composite materials is demonstrated. It combines techniques such as 3D ...

On left, the MIT HAUS large format 3D printer system deposits the first layer of a polymer composite 3D printed floor truss. A closeup of a notched joint is seen on right, and the assembled floor ...
