Light-transmissible construction material and manufacturing method for the same

Abstract

A light-transmissible construction material and manufacturing method for the same. The light-transmissible construction material comprises at least a light-transmitting unit and a concrete unit. The light-transmitting unit has a light entrance end, a light exit end, and a lateral wall between both ends. The lateral wall of the light-transmitting unit is enclosed and surrounded with the concrete unit. The light entrance and exit end of the light-transmitting unit are exposed from two opposite surfaces of the concrete unit. A method for manufacturing the same light-transmissible construction material comprises: placing at least one light-transmitting unit between two side formworks; filling the concrete grout between above two side formworks; and drying the concrete grout to form the light-transmissible construction material.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates generally to a light-transmissible construction material and a method for manufacturing the same; particularly, the present invention relates to a material for constructing a light-transmissible or semi-light-transmissible structure and a method for manufacturing the same. [0003] 2. Description of the Prior Art [0004] Concrete plays a very important role for modern architecture structures in recent years. And its adjustable gravity and other multiple applications make it highly practicable for various construction designs and requirements. [0005] However, most architects and engineers are more concerned about the use of concrete material on the structure design rather than the exterior design work. Even some architects and interior designers give concrete material higher value for its simple and plain characteristic recently, and apply it to the exterior design of the architecture, the ...

[0008] It is an object of the present invention to provide a light-transmissible construction material to construct a light-transmissible or semi-light-transmissible structure. It is another object of the present invention to provide a light-transmissible construction material, capable of transmitting light and remaining the characteristic of the concrete material. It is a further object of the present invention to provide a light-transmissible construction material, increasing the variety of architecture design. It is yet another object of the invention to provide a light-transmissible construction material, having the function of measuring the internal fracture. It is still another object of the invention to provide a method for effectively manufacturing a light-transmissible construction material. It is the other object of the invention to provide a construction structure system, having the function of measuring the internal fracture.

Problems solved by technology

However, most architects and engineers are more concerned about the use of concrete material on the structure design rather than the exterior design work.

However, the traditional concrete, brick, wood and other construction material are mostly opaque in property.

Furthermore, as a result of the opaque character of concrete material, it is not easy to discover the internal structure fracture from the surface when the structure is affected by the external force.
