Reference: A to Z of Building

Reference information:
Dr. Linn W. Hobbs and other MIT professors tested the rock's high strength when modeling a pyramid with it. The U.S. Army, Navy, FAA and Air Force Research Laboratory have funded research. Battelle Institute, in Germany, tested for the European high-level nuclear waste classification, and reports using the rock to be a "valuable alternative" to glassification. Nuclear wastes are immobilized within rock. Davidovits' rock-concrete can serve to shore up coastlines to prevent flooding. It can be used to build fireproof, hurricane-proof mega-structures on a mammoth scale never before possible. It can fortify bridges in danger of collapse. It will strengthen limestone to prevent sinkholes. It can restore cultural heritage buildings being devoured by acid rain. A runway made with it will support a Boeing jet five hours after being poured. Extensive use could save hundreds of billions of dollars annually in weather and fire damage. Future cities could be as enduring as Egypt's Great Pyramid.
