Abstract

Nanotechnology can be used for design and construction processes in many since nanotechnology generated products have many unique characteristics. Nanotechnology can be used in the healthy compatibility with the constructional structures like that of massive buildings and bridges, which have been thought to encroach upon huge masses of land, leading to the destroying of homes of wildlife and putting pressure in the limited reserves of energy. This review paper focuses on the sustainable usage of nano based materials like carbon nanotube, electrochromic windows, nanoclays, nanowires, nanoceramic coating, nanocrystalline materials, nanosilica, nanocomposites, nanometals, nanofibres, nanomyteTM mend MW, nanocement, which could be used for providing singular or multiple functions of potential reinforcement, corrosion resistance, insulation, fire protection, temperature resistance, reducing air conditioning loads, pollution control, UV ray absorption, lighting, when used as a part of building materials.
