[@shandor2522]

I'm all for character in housing, and know that it doesn't have to come from wood. In Mexico City houses are mainly masonry and spare plenty cozy! I totally love this robot, which is very doable, but as mentioned by Peter, many of us physics-minded folks need to see evidence of roof strength, 'cos concrete is a compressively strong material with negligible tensile strength. In other words, without an arch or some type of I beams your ceilings and floors will collapse. Thanks!

[@nickilovesdogs8137]

That is amazing. Real life Lego bricks. Makes sense and this is so exciting for the future to build also with translucent cement and extra sturdy cement. And to build storm proof buildings.

[@cedrickohlisch4649]

This is just LEGO in very big.

[@chaomatic5328]

[@Reso205]

I love these so called "architects"....they always present an ideal situation in their designs and videos, perfect weather (no rain or wind), perfect FLAT ground In reality de foundation is "wavy", the weather is to hot, raining to much wind and dust etc etc

[@kenthecoder7673]

"New". I played with Legos over 20 years ago.

[@fistpunder]

+Ken the Coder That was the first thing I thought when I saw this. Think we qualify with all our Lego expertise?

[@Robert08010]

LEGOs? Why, these have square nubs, not round ones. We can't have anyone thinking they STOLE this idea from anywhere. Its got to be patentable.

[@Robert08010]

+Rob Fowler Also, not to be picky but just what makes this "green". I get that the labor costs would be reduced, but the energy consumed in building them would have to be about the same. It takes physical work to lift the materials and that means energy. So what? Did that "Green Construction" title magically make this building more energy efficient? How exactly, because I don 't see it.

[@teknicalmusic116]

+Rob Fowler LEGO's patent would have expired decades ago (patents are only for 20 years)

[@secretarts]

+Rob Fowler it is a detail of the dual air chambering that is suppose to make it more insulated. How ever I still think that I would want to inspect a test building that was really made from this system. I think the V5 habiterra blocks make more sense but then again I have built one of those. I have to say this looks interesting but still there is a problem of not seeing it or not knowing someone that has really seen one. IMHO

[@ВалераЧернов-б3и]

Новые технологии.Гениальное просто.

[@MountainNZ]

You can't build beams and suspended floors out of lego bricks, I notice they skipped the bit in the video where they detailed how exactly that was going to happen. I'd like to know what the bricks are made out of that they can support a floor in tension.

[@MrBBywaters]

I want to know that as well. I figure that interior load-bearing walls will be made of the bricks and beams will still be precast concrete.

[@Vrplumber]

This exactly what I was thinking. In my experience, floors are supported with unbroken elements, such as joists or precast slabs, running from one supporting wall to another. I don't know how structurally sound interconnected blocks would be for a floor, but it seems you could still integrate traditional floor support systems into this new brick system.

[@MrBBywaters]

***** Thanks. I think this can work. I want it to work. I've been following ICFs and other concrete building systems since the 70s. This is the best concept I've seen so far. I hope it develops into a successful construction platform, especially for residential construction. I think that hurricane and tornado prone areas could benefit greatly, as well as areas experiencing extreme hot or cold temperatures. Hopefully, it will be fully to market in the near future.

[@SJNTraveldiary]

Its not possible

[@MLFranklin]

This is really cool. I can see a whole DIY movement based on these beloved bricks.

[@SatishGandhi]

Is this four-story construction is possible without a solid foundation? I understand the hollow bricks don't weight similar to normal bricks but are the construction is built on load bearing technology?

[@gregdoble4302]

Ever step on a Lego House. They don't break but your foot sure hurts. Neat smart tech

[@TroubledCarOwner]

Any good builder/contractor will put a foundation. It spreads the weight of the building over a much larger surface area. WIthout it, building might just sink, unevenly most of the time. The virtual building in the video even shows that it has a foundation, a special one too.

[@airliner7478]

Wow! Good price, efficient, and easy! Not to mention top quality! This is something I'm interested in! Its like making giant industrial Legos that ACTUALLY can be use to make REAL homes!

[@paulineplast]

LEGO for big kids! Love it.

[@socalocman03]

How about an actual construction site, you know, showing an actual building being constructed with these Lego blocks. The Jetsons cartoon from years ago had some very futuristic buildings, even as a child one new they were not reality.

[@101perspective]

+Leslie Morrison Yeah, I think this system is better in theory than reality. First off, you would need to be very precise in making these. Not even sure how you could make them without some kind of intricate mold system. Then you would need to ensure you got enough of each type... and keep them sorted. It of course is possible. I just think your costs would go WAY up.

[@originalShorai]

+101perspective Well once something goes into mass production the price wouldn't be quite so severe. If each house was every piece made to order it would be a nightmare. I just hope the robot isn't mandatory.

[@101perspective]

originalShorai Yeah, possibly. However, I think you would have to be producing a TON of these bricks to bring the price down. Not only would it be easier to mess up one of these bricks in production because of the complexity, but we are talking about a lot more wasted material when you did. Compared to the much smaller standard bricks anyway.

[@originalShorai]

101perspective That would depend entirely on what this is made of. Repeating a molded shape in plastic or concrete would be fairly simple really. No harder than doing the same for the clay most red bricks are made from at least.

[@101perspective]

originalShorai I'm not saying there would be a super high defective rate or anything like that. Just that because of the complexity of these things it is only logical that the defective rate would be higher than a simple normal brick. And there may be additional costs in just discovering which bricks are defective. But yeah, if everyone went to these and stopped using normal bricks they could probably bring the costs down a lot. I just don't see it ever getting as low as current bricks. Btw, I suspect something similar to that robot is needed to build these since those bricks are probably a tad heavy. And if you put one down wrong you could either damage one of the bricks or at least make it very hard to get it back up in order to place it correctly. Also, I have seen other specialty brick systems that work similar to these. In fact, these other systems are in actual use... though limited. So, this system would have a HUGE mountain to climb to overcome the market to the point that they would be producing enough of these to bring the costs down to a reasonable amount.

[@concious2]

About time someone figured it out. See that many below are not use to change but it happens if you want it or not.

[@raiauge8364]

Humans have been using modular blocks adhered together using adhesive compounds to build buildings small and large for literally thousands of years.

[@ChristopherBudesheim]

I love this idea! I blog about LEGO but know there are way more applications for this type of construction than people think about or give credit to the LEGO style idea! Thanks for sharing this video! (and idea) :-)

[@pradippandit5295]

Material used and ratio wanted to be mentioned

[@jimmartin7899]

Design a a foam hemp cellulose concrete that can be molded into any shape and have everything done on site. Could even use a ultraviolet light system to cure the product to speed production of molded parts of building materials.

[@epicdeuce]

There's a reason this is a computer demonstration and not a real life one....

[@sandrabonner8208]

My guess would be that getting a building permit, nay FIGHTING tooth and nail, would be prohibitive for any but the very wealthy. That would be for just ONE U.S. city. For the same city, the next person would have almost the same difficulty until, for that ONE city, it became fairly common practice.

[@RobCalhounPGH]

Not particularly because of permits. You could do a mockup on your own property. This is proof of concept. But there definitely needs to be a physical proof of existence for backing. The strength of the interlocking blocks would be an easy sell for earthquake/hurricane/tornado prone areas. If they prove to be stronger, insurance companies giving a discount on rebuilding using this method would ensure quick acceptance of the practice.

[@RobCalhounPGH]

Check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4u4kmyblsx_mNkm30s While it isn't the same type of block, the machine does the same kind of placement.

[@ozgulismailozcan1693]

+Thelongmanable lys

[@mwill2509]

Robert Burke III not sure if I'd want a block that would float in water in a flood prone area. Depending on the amount of blocks used and depth of the water the structure could be buoyant enough to lift off of the foundation and float away.. During the tsunami that hit Japan there were many buildings floating around smashing into things.

[@vickybartistry3292]

This is the building of the future. I’m getting ready to build a house out of smart blocks

[@maestrohun]

I am asking the uploader. Why do you think, it is green? What kind of material made of? Why do you use mortar? That also green material? Can you recycle? Did you use static counting or make a model? The small cubes on top of the brick look like too small and weak.

[@johnstarr2001]

Legos already got a patient on this kind of building. lol

[@justgeorgeous]

i had the idea of using plastic lego shell empty bricks more than 20 years ago. the pieces could be transported as shells which stack inside each other. they are upside down to the above. once assembled they could be filled with concrete, sand (in a desert), or even water.

[@ronaldmeasonstcharles356]

Thanks for sharing.....

[@maxwelljaxwell1688]

what kind of material would these blocks be made of? Concrete is not a reduced energy material. It is also a very poor insulator. Plastic would be a horrible material for building with as it uses petrochemicals for it's fabrication and it would off gas as well as produce very toxic gasses when burned.

[@yabucoaman]

+Maxwell Jaxwell i would venture to guess carbon fiber but the cost would be huge

[@epistte]

+Maxwell Jaxwell It almost has to be concrete. Where is the rebar?

[@0530628416]

+epistte if you look closely they install what I think is a rebar , if they are working on this idea right now , the blocks can't be normal concrete , also the rebar has to have some bonding mechanism between the rebar and the block so they act uniformly ( meaning that they both contribute in resisting loads in an efficient manner)

[@epistte]

+‫احمد يونس‬‎ The black tubes appear to be utilities conduit. It would have no strength unless it is grouted to the blocks.

[@thepatriarchy7934]

There's something you can't take away form stick built and that is the intangible feeling of "home" that these mass built concrete like structures do not possess. There is a "warmth" associated with structures made primarily out of wood that concrete or other poured type materials just never will have. Neat idea, for mass housing projects though.

[@penkatadrums]

+Quick2000 Oh shut up with your green peace tree cutting bullshit. The point was that when you decorate your house there is no telling if it is made of wood of concrete or of shit bricks... and when the rain is poundering outside, boy will you feel the "warmth" when you light your concrete-like fireplace...

[@penkatadrums]

there is no way that this could hold... especially the ceiling...

[@plcsys]

+penkata drums I totally agree with you on the ceiling. They were adding blocks from the edge out. Without shoring during construction, it would just collapse. Furthermore I see no tension elements to support the spans. I would like to see some details on what structure supports the floors during construction and after. How about posting some live and dead load studies of this system?

[@0530628416]

actually it can hold ,maybe very very difficult to accomplish but it can be done , it can also be more efficient than current way of building because formwork takes about 60 percent of the cost of any project

[@andrewtomasi7372]

I am currently working with someone using similar technology. When he started, there were many people like you saying that it would never work, because they didn't understand the logistics. It did work and it worked better than anything else previous to it.

[@NSResponder]

+Andrew Tomasi Cool story, bro. Pics or it didn't happen. -jcr

[@andrewtomasi7372]

+NSResponder It was a type of ICF construction. This was before it was a generally accepted mode of construction.

[@anteconfig5391]

I really like this idea, but what are those lego pieces made of? Is it plastic? I'm thinking that constructing a building that tall would require much stronger material so probably not plastic but then again I wouldn't know how strong plastic can get.

[@Robert08010]

+SchrodingersQuark Its also known as communism.

[@ketatrypt]

+SchrodingersQuark Meh, dont feel bad, the world just isn't ready yet for major robotic workforces yet - With our current system of capitalistic ideas, it would turn into 'who can amass the most first gen robots to monopolize the entire robot-slave market' and within maybe 100 years, there would be more segregation of 'haves' and 'have nots' then we have ever seen before... Think about it - in our current world, if someone had robots that could do almost anything, they wouldn't 'donate' that robots' time working for free - Even if there was more then enough robots for everyone - greed is a dirty human issue that needs dealing with before we can advance to a new era where there is enough resources for everyone.. (actually, there is already enough resourses for everyone on the planet to have basic living essentials, plus some luxuries to boot - but instead, we have a capitalistic greed fueled economy, where us mass people work for measily 50-100k a year, while the high ups make billions a year off, mainly our efforts. And those high ups will continue to replace us with robotics, as robots can work 24/7 with no pay, and no complaining/unions to deal with.. But instead of being for the betterment of mankind, it is for the betterment of their wallet. Sad world.. :(

[@generybarczyk6993]

+Rob Fowler The main danger robotics poses to the future of U.S. employment is when McDonalds finally goes robotic, utilizing robots outsource-manufactured in a certain very large and populous communist nation.

[@Robert08010]

+ketatrypt I heard this story on NPR that said robotic technology is coming along so fast, that in less than 50 years and then he added, "a lot less", there will be no manual labor jobs because they will be all filled by robots. He said its coming and its a lot sooner that people realize. This was not a science fiction program. From a business standpoint, I certainly understand it; they don't go out on maternity leave, they don't file sexual harassment lawsuits against each other, they don't protest for higher wages... In order for a business to compete they would naturally think they would have to do it. What I wanna know is what happens when 80% of the American public is out of work and can no longer buy the products?

[@ketatrypt]

Rob Fowler Yea we are going down a slippery slope - something is going to have to give, and I am worried that it will be the middle class to go, as there already has been a 'war' going on against the middle class now for quite some time. If it keeps down this path, once robotics have been put into mainstream use, I think there will only be the ultra-wealthy who owns the robots, and the ultra-poor, who don't own robots. And guess which side of the line the current middle class will be on? because I doubt it will be on the wealth side. We are at a turning point in history where we are between era's.. Unless somehow we can totally turn around our thinking from the current self centered thinking of a capitalist, to a forward thinking communist. (communism might not be the right word, but, close enough :D ) Of course the system will be taken advantage of, as it always has, but, I do think it beats the mass segregation that would result from capitalism disintegrating before our eyes.

[@Sofian375]

I am not convinced by the slab at 1:28

[@junaidgurmani]

Sofian Than its your fault 😁

[@JS-311]

Sofian because of how it's designed, you'd have to build this slab separately and get a bunch of cranes to move it onto the building, because it would eventually bend and/or cave in doing it with the method in the video. I'm in high school and even I can recognize this.

[@AllNiin]

Nah bulshit... It does not really differ from how construction is done actually the only difference is that it would need steel bars being put in it to fix it in place and to not bend, this is how it is done in construction sites. at first I too was thinking that it would not hold until I remembered that it is hollowed insite and could easy have a steel bar put inside of it or a separeted piece that alread have it, so the steel bar would hold thing together with the blocks. It will hold as good as our actual construction sites do the only big downside of all this lego thing is that it is less resistante than the actual ones because of being holowed but in actual practice only in areas where there are tremors it would be affected as big builds would still ned blocks with steel bars holding things together

that's why you have drywall it helps for all that excess heat and cold coming from the outside

[@ardellewachter1649]

um...no, you insulate or they are insulated to begin with.

[@GregConquest]

The mass of bricks just adds thermal inertia to the building. Like a cave, it can be cold. If you shield it from the sun, it won't be able to get warm even. The warmer you want it, just add more sun. It will continue to be warm during cold periods for however long you design the interior insulation for.

[@jpkarbunko]

I don't know about that.

[@davidhamilton506]

*pkarbunko* They're called heble blocks, not too sure if I've spelt that correctly. Basically, it's a concrete block that is super lightweight, that you can cut with a saw. I think they add hundreds of Styrofoam beads to the cement, which gives it it's light weight plus insulating qualities and are cheaper to purchase, making them more economical overall. If memory serves, they're larger in size to an ordinary concrete block which means you'll need less of them to complete the build.......My interest in them is rekindled, so I'll Google them to get the full details and report back...

Hello. Had your new system approved ? Would you please link us new video? We like to know, if you start building commercial and residential in U.S. Thank you.

It is fun to imagine what it would be like.

Hey even more petroleum product to surround us with! YAY!

[@thewanderingalbatross1061]

Cool animation.

[@eXtremeDR]

Finally! Real LEGO™ houses. ^__^

[@lytken]

so good to see that the Lego concept finely have made it's way into construction what are they made of and what about different colors

[@petercoakley5497]

Interesting concept, would like to see an actual completed version if possible? Given that these are high strength concrete blocks, as stated in the description, i struggle to see how the building is zero energy?

[@johnclowes3894]

What about the perpendicular joints. Are they weather tight? As I see no mortar or glue applied.

I can see the walls sidewalks and at least 2 stories but what is the R factor (I see no insulation and cold will transfer right through the material wont it?) Running electrical and plumbing with tubes I can see but modifications later? And how far can you span the ceiling ?

[@1978Ather]

cost and energy requirements for unit constructions? delivery and implememtation ? very good looking impractical idea

[@jeanmariesurprenant3602]

Fast, standard & homogeneous material, quiet, clean (little garbage), strong, fire proof ... super cool... the question is... at what price.

[@mysticalsoulqc]

good one ,I was also thinking of that for a longtime. bravo very nice animation. bravo!

[@aaronscott1972]

So exposed electrical/plumbing/hvac/fire sprinklers? Great look

[@jbc1944]

Small Countries like Denmark can produce Big Ideas !!! :-)

[@LanceWinslow]

This construction method could help us save money on the US border wall!!!
