Abstract
Super-light structures with pearl-chain reinforcement is a new revolutionary technology that opens possibilities of building load-bearing structures much cheaper and with several other advantages compared to traditional constructions of concrete and steel.
Some benefits are:
1 Half price or less.
2 Architectural expressions never seen before.
3 Material savings of more than 50 %.
4 Energy and CO2 savings of more than 50 %.
5 No Scaffolding and cheaper moulds.
6 Improved durability.
7 Extreme thermal insulation.
8 Better indoor-climate.
9 User friendly operation and maintenance.
10 Increased safety for fire, earthquake, and explosions.
This moves the limits for resource economic buildings.
