Memory-steel -- A new material for the strengthening of buildings

(Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology (EMPA)) A new building material developed at Empa is about to be launched on the market: 'memory-steel' can not only be used to reinforce new, but also existing concrete structures. When the material is heated (one-time), prestressing occurs automatically. The Empa spin-off re-fer AG is now presenting the material with shape memory in a series of lectures.
