Standing before a crowd of curious onlookers at a corner of the show floor at the World of Concrete trade show in Las Vegas, Advanced Construction Robotics president and cofounder Jeremy Searock made ...

If structural engineers have their way, building codes will take a leap forward in the next couple of years to allow the use of higher-strength 80-ksi reinforcing steel in concrete shear walls in high ...

Morteza Khatib, a Ph.D student at the University of Miami, shows off a photo of the Fate Bridge on the university's Coral Gables campus. The bridge is built with glass-based rebar. "I was always ...

Nearly 40% of failure of concrete structures occurs due to corrosion of embedded steel reinforcement. For this reason, corrosion control of steel reinforcement is essential to prevent damage and ...

The Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) rebar industry is about thirty years old. The industry started by molding aramid and carbon fibers with various thermoset resins, and then expanded to glass fibers ...

We are super excited to announce the third prototype of SkyTy (P3). P3 has been able to fly and tie for a few months now. Watch the world’s first automated (hands-off) rebar tying by aerial robot.

The key factors driving the growth of the global steel rebar market are the expanding construction sector, dropping steel prices, reduced wastage, minimized overlapping at joints, and speedier ...
