Unit three make that happen. 外刊选翠，researchers from the university in amErica have found a new way to build parts of houses using recycled plastic. Usually, the main frames of houses are made of wood, steel or concrete. These materials must be very strong so they can keep the whole house standing strongly and safely. The team's leader, AJ. Perez, is an engineer and inventor. He says that the world will need about one billion new homes by twenty fifty. If we try to build all these homes with wood, we will have to cut down a lot of trees that may be three times the size of the amazon rainforest. Besides, making steel and concrete also causes pollution and is bad for our planet. Instead of using these harmful materials, engineers from the university mix reused plastic with small pieces of glass. They find that this mixture is strong enough to make the frames. To make these plastic frames, the researchers use a special technology called three d printing. They first make floor trusses supports under the floor that look like latters with a izaak inside. These dresses are very important because they hold up the floor and all the things on IT. The researchers use a very big three d printer. IT is so big that IT fills the whole room with IT. They make four long traces, each taller than the door way, each trust ways only about six kilograms, much lighter than wooden ones. And IT takes less than thirteen minutes to print. One tests show the trash can support more than one thousand eight hundred kilograms, about the weight of a car, so they are strong enough for real houses using recycled plastic. And houses can help cut down plastic waste. IT can also stop IT from polluting rivers and seas. The scientists hope that one day they can three d print all parts of a houses frame, turning a lot of waste plastic into useful Green building materials.
