Researchers at RMIT University have developed a new structure to make stronger materials for more durable buildings.

Inspired by the skeleton of a deep-sea sponge, the lattice-like lattice structure can absorb more energy and handle more stress before deforming.

The design could also find use in protective sports gear and medical products that need to be light but strong.
