Do you think that steel beams are only reserved for skyscrapers and malls? Nah, reconsider. Increasing numbers of homeowners and construction professionals are going all-in on steel, and with good ...

(Nanowerk News) While laser-based 3D printing techniques have revolutionized the production of metal parts by greatly expanding design complexity, the laser beams traditionally used in metal printing ...

In the quest to measure the fundamental constant that governs the strength of gravity, scientists are getting a wiggle on. Using a pair of meter-long, vibrating metal beams, scientists have made a new ...

Q. I'm getting ready to build a large room addition that needs a beam to support the floor joists. I've been told that a wood beam will work, but I've always seen steel I-beams in other houses. Is it ...

To address porosity and defects in metal 3D printing, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory researchers experimented with exotic optical laser beam shapes known as Bessel beams — reminiscent of ...
