The small amount of water that remained provided considerable strength over time.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The team believes that further study will help reduce the reliance on cement in building materials, which is responsible for 5 percent of man-made carbon output, and in doing so, cut carbon emissions.
