  1. Researchers propose using basalt instead of limestone for cement production, potentially cutting CO2 emissions by 80%

    Researchers are exploring the use of silicate rocks like basalt as an alternative to limestone to lower the energy requirements and carbon footprint of cement production.

  2. At RENOVANT™, we’re collaborating with PhD Medina to embed ancestral wisdom into ESG & LEED frameworks. Our goal: driving ROI for developers while securing community sovereignty.

    Guided by the CARE Principles (Collective Benefit, Authority, Responsibility, Ethics), we’re proving that restoration and profitability go hand-in-hand.

  3. Universität Stuttgart @Uni_Stuttgart@bawü.social ·

    Wie können wir mineralische Baustoffe nachhaltiger denken? Im Projekt SimBioZe erforschen Wissenschaftler*innen der Universität Stuttgart Biobeton auf Basis von Biomineralisierung – mit Urin als Ressource aus Abfallströmen. Nicht als Ersatz für Beton, sondern als Ergänzung für passende Anwendungen.

    Danke an die Messe Stuttgart für die Unterstützung und die Sichtbarkeit auf der CMT. Industriepartner in der Aktion: Arwinger Caravaning
    und Kompotoi.
    Forschungspartner: @unihohenheim

  4. #Cob, a #vernacular earth #construction process in the context of modern #sustainable building

    Erwan Hamard, et al.

    "The will of reducing environmental and social impact of building industry has led to a renewed interest in #EarthConstruction. Most of earth construction literature dealt with #RammedEarth or #Adobe techniques, but very little with cob. Yet, cob participates in the diversity of #vernacular earth construction processes that value local materials and is an alternative to rammed earth and adobe in specific geographical conditions.

    "#Conservation of cob heritage also requires a better knowledge of this vernacular construction process. This bibliographical analysis gathered extensive data on cob process and summarized the different cob process variations, attempting to take into account their diversity. This analysis allowed us to provide novel data on cob process, and more specifically, a clear definition of cob with regard to other earth construction processes, a first summarized description of cob process that clearly distinguished its variations, a list of fibres traditionally employed, values and, if possible, average and standard deviation for fibre length, fibre content, manufacture water content, drying times, lift heights and wall thicknesses, a summary of the strategies to manage shrinkage cracks, a criterion on the quality of implementation and/or earth for cob, based on slenderness ration of lifts and a discussion on the evolution of cob process with regard to societal evolutions."

  18. Wer macht die Materialwende? 🏘️ 🚧 ♻️

    Eine Wende hin zur Kreislaufwirtschaft ist mit einer langfristigen Umstellung aller Abläufe im Bauwesen verbunden. Entscheidungen, die den Ressourcenverbrauch und die Klimawirkung des Bauens minimieren, könnten dagegen sofort getroffen werden – insbesondere wenn es darum geht, den Gebäudebestand möglichst lange in Nutzung zu halten oder Leerstand zu revitalisieren.

    Unsere Autor:innen Johannes Warda, Georg Schiller, Barbara Ditze und Robert Knippschild sind überzeugt: Die praktische Expertise dafür findet sich in der Denkmalpflege.
    Bislang als Nischenbereich auf einen exklusiven Bestand beschränkt, können denkmalpflegerische Prinzipien als Bestandteil zirkulären Bauens für alle Bauaufgabenfruchtbar gemacht werden.

    Den Artikel "Wer macht die Materialwende?: Zur Rolle von zirkulären und denkmalpflegerischen Ansätzen für die Transformation des Bauwesens" gibt es #openaccess hier:

  30. “We have to look at buildings as material stores,” said Boerman. If you have “a building life of X years,” then material would be “stored” in the building. “After that, you can take it out again. Just like a bank. This is how circular building works.”
