CEAT team unveils process for 3D-printed concrete columns at 2025 Senior Design Expo

Students in the Oklahoma State University School of Civil and Environmental Engineering in the College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology studying under Dr. Tyler Ley, accomplished a world-first by 3D printing a reinforced concrete column for their capstone project during the Fall 2025 Senior Design Expo.  At the Senior Design Expo, the team was recognized with the Zink Center Award for Collaborative Innovation.
Concrete samples are shown on a table during the 2025 Senior Design Expo. The different samples are labeled with a number to denote that they are different samples. The team Concrete Cowboys demonstrated a process to 3D print a concrete column.

CEAT researchers focused on finding right mixture for concrete runways

Thu, Jan 23, 2025

When it comes to concrete surfaces, airports provide unique challenges for the right type of mixture to ensure the runways can sustain the impact of landing aircraft. Runways are prone to foreign object debris (FOD) resulting in damage to runways and aircraft. FOD consists of loose materials including broken parts of a runway that get sucked into engines causing complications.
