Maybe soon engineers will not use rivets to fasten the frame of skyscrapers. For example, one of the foreign architects says that thanks to new building materials, an architectural revolution can be made. For example, thanks to new technologies, you can speed up the construction process.
According to him, old methods of fastening parts are a thing of the past in most industries. Today, experts have tried to glue parts from cars or aircraft. A successful attempt at gluing and elements of household appliances.
The weight of carbon fiber is several times less than that of traditional materials. It is distinguished by its unprecedented strength. It was used for the manufacture of yachts and aircraft. This material is also excellent for the manufacture of spaceships. Scientists say that panels made from this material can be glued together. Then they can be used to build a bridge and a multi-storey building.
This modern material was used to build a museum in America. The theater was also built from it. In America, bridges were built using this technology. This method is convenient, since it can be used to quickly glue the arch. The structures are very light and can be easily lifted by workers. As a result, one bridge can be built in two weeks.
According to one of the American architects using a similar technology, building glue can be used to easily connect structural parts together. However, most developers prefer to use reliable steel rivets. They don't really trust Glue. That is why new trends in construction are not spreading so quickly.
In addition, most engineers are thinking about ways to prevent fires in newly built homes. Thus, the adhesive, despite its reliability, is highly flammable. For example, one of the hotels burned down due to the use of construction glue.
However, engineers are confident that the new material presents more opportunities than the risks associated with its use. They say that building glue can be used to improve the construction industry.
