Abstract
The construction industry is one of the major contributors to the economy development
of any country, hence, the need to investigate new technological ways that will ensure the growth
and development of the industry. Using existing literature materials, the adoption of
nanotechnology as a technological method for construction materials were examined. It was
observed that the adoption of nanotechnology can aid new building typologies and opportunities for
sustainable use of construction materials for the achievement of sustainable developments in
architecture, engineering and construction projects.
