Carbon Nanotube and Civil Engineering

Journal Title: Saudi Journal of Engineering and Technology - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

Abstract: The construction of roads on soft clay soils is a challenging task and therefore considered as one of the biggest concerns in geotechnical engineering. The utilization of soft soils in tropical regions is currently low, although construction on them has become increasingly necessary due to economic reasons. Recent developments in nanoscience and nanotechnology opened fundamental and applied new frontiers in science and materials engineering. Advanced materials are being developed with enhanced chemical and physical properties with unique characteristics. The properties of these materials are determined not only by their composition and chemical bonds, but also by size and morphology. However, the traditional cementitious stabilizers like cement are under discussion, not only for their negative environmental effects during manufacture but also for their cost. Keywords: Green Environmental; Nanomaterials; Cementitious Stabilization; Carbon Nanotube.
