Nanotechnology in Construction for Circular Economy Kartoniert (TB)

This open access book covers emerging opportunities and future use of nanotechnology in construction including deep advances in cement chemistry nanotechnology artificial intelligence robotics concrete technology and extreme engineering (blast impact and fire). The proceedings also presents sectorial interactions within the traditional construction industry supply chain enabled by the dynamic partnership between international industry government agencies and universities. Nanotechnology has transformed the construction materials industry into an advanced manufacturing sector to addre ss climate change and carbon neutrality challenges by delivering sustainable and resilient infrastructure assets. Hence this book reports specific advances in nanoscience and nano-engineering and their impacts on numerous novel construction materials including binders additives high-performance concrete materials concrete structural systems polymer composites and pavement materials.
