Concrete is one of the world’s biggest carbon emitters, but a few bridge-builders hope to change that—by reusing it.
“It’s not a new technology,” says Fivet. “We just put existing technologies together.”
Yet Fivet believes that modern testing methods have made it possible to do just that without destroying the material. And today, new concrete poured and cured at a construction site can be deeply affected by fickle things like the weather. Architects already give themselves safety margins to account for changes to the concrete’s strength and quality, and Fivet believes reusing concrete is no more uncertain.
