I was worried about structural integrity, but they seem to address this. The self-assembling mechanism is a very cool discovery here!
Another interesting application for this as a structural material is that I'm not sure you'd need conduits? Like a block-house made mostly of this material, you could just put sockets directly into the concrete, and then hook the whole building up to the grid. I presume you'd need sturdy, well insulated walls to prevent accidents, haha.
Actually, would a box made of this (a parking garage say) act like a Faraday cage?
