Abstract

By reconsidering the use of load-bearing walls in cyclopean masonry, this project undertakes a multidisciplinary and forward-looking exploration of the circular construction industry. The goal is to employ minerai extraction waste for new constructions by implementing a low-carbon construction system devoid of steel reinforcements, additives or chemicals.
