6 Innovative Construction Materials for Your New Building

2/6/2019

18 Comments

 
Picture
​With the continuous flow of waste materials added to the world's and the ever-changing advancements in technology, it is imperative to maximize all the resources available before running out. Creators, architects, and environmentalists have been making up ingenious ways on how to create waste or materials not originally intended for construction into usable products for industries.
​Plastic Bottles for Walls and Roofs
Drinking water is essential in everyone's life. With this necessity and the fast-paced, instant lifestyle people adhere to, the demand for on-the-go packaging of drinking water is at an all-time high. This demand results in tons of plastic bottles, usually made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) that degrades very slowly, thrown at landfills.
 
Organizations are advocating for the use of plastic bottles as fillers for structural frames. In constructing, builders use steel wires as the structural frame and plastic bottles (filled with infill materials like other plastic materials and sand) as fillers of the steel wall or roof.
 
While utilizing the strength of plastic and reducing total waste generated, plastic bottles are inexpensive construction materials.
 
Cigarette Butts
As with plastic, there are tons of cigarette butt waste in the earth's landfill. This material could enter the soil and harm nature.
 
Dr. Mohajerani from RMIT University discovered the pollution reduction potential of infusing cigarette waste in fired-clay bricks. The bricks made with less energy than regular are lighter.
 
Light-generating Cement
The world is brighter at night mostly due to artificial light. How practical would it be if the road light up the way instead?
 
Dr. Ávalos from UMSNH of Morelia created light-generating cement at room temperature, further reducing the energy required for construction. He used a variation of materials such as river sand, industrial waste, silica, water, and alkali for the cement.
 
Translucent Wood
Translucent wood comes from the lining wood veneer or thinly sliced wood from the study of Biomacromolecules. This material is cheap, renewable, and readily available. You can make windows and solar panels using this material.
 
Pollution-absorbing Bricks
Appropriately named as Breathe Brick, Professor Trudell developed a two-layer facade system that sucks in pollutants in the air and releases filtered air. There is an inner cyclone filtration system that separates air particles and collects dust.
 
Hydroceramics
Hydroceramics, made by Students at the Institute of Advanced Architecture of Catalonia, is a mixture of clay and hydrogel. It is capable of reducing indoor temperature by up to six degrees Celsius through the absorbed water.
 
In this world full of possibilities, your choice in construction materials is more extensive than ever. Acquire commercial insurance today to help ensure your future.

I've never even heard of light-generating cement or translucent wood before! That's so cool that a lot of these materials are made from things that are considered waste, but can be repurposed for other things. I love the idea of building with renewable materials. My husband and I will make sure to find building materials that are energy efficient for our new home.

As a 4th year graduating students, we've been given a project by our professor to buy different samples of materials and products that are usually seen in a construction company. I never knew about the combination of clay and hydrogen that can produce hydrodynamics. Moreover, it is highly advisable to be innovative and creative with the materials since we are now using modern technology and also state-of-art facilities.
