Abstract

— Recent climate change has already indicated the need to reduce high-energy materials and increase the implementation of eco-friendly materials. As climate change can affect building structures, the construction industry must have to concerned about its contribution to greenhouse emissions and reduction in the use of highenergy materials. This paper studies the building materials made up of aerogel, a nanoporous solid with ~99% of air, which could help civil engineering to achieve minimum emission and energy-efficient structures. This review concluded that the implementation and application of aerogel-based construction materials can benefit both civil engineering and the environment.
