A Concrete Impact
"In theory, a wall structure built out of the light-transmitting concrete can be a couple of meters thick as the fibers work without any loss in light up to 20 m," explained Losonczi. "Load-bearing structures can also be built from the blocks as glass fibers do not have a negative effect on the well-known high compressive strength of concrete. The blocks can be produced in various sizes with embedded heat isolation too."

This could be hyooooooge for South Florida, where not only commercial but also residential construction is highly dependent on concrete. Traditional wood construction rots like last month's lasagne down here - concrete construction is a fact of life.
