Meta open-sources BOxCrete for sustainable concrete

Meta is applying its Adaptive Experimentation (Ax) framework to material science, solving a critical bottleneck in physical infrastructure deployment.

• –Bayesian optimization navigates millions of chemical combinations to find the best mix for strength, speed, and sustainability
• –Faster 43% curing time significantly compresses construction timelines for massive AI data center campuses
• –The release includes performance data from real-world deployments, open-sourcing a proprietary "recipe" for industrial decarbonization
• –Reshoring cement production through AI-optimized local mixes improves supply chain resilience and reduces carbon footprint
• –Integration with commercial software like Quadrel signals immediate industrial impact beyond Meta’s own projects
