Italian architects have developed new "transparent cement", which allows daylight to flood into a room and makes the walls look like giant windows, the Daily Mail of London reported. It can therefore save electricity that would otherwise be required for daytime lighting. So far, it has been used only for one building - the Italian pavilion at last year's Expo in Shanghai.
據英國《每日郵報》報道,意大利的建筑師們研制了一款"透明水泥"。建筑物采用這種水泥后,整面墻就像個巨大的窗戶,陽光能穿透墻體射進室內。這樣可減少室內燈光使用量,從而節省能源。迄今為止,世界上僅有一座建筑物使用了這種水泥,即去年中國上海世博會的意大利館。
