Abstract
One of the hot subjects in space civil engineering is the research for establishing outposts on space bodies, starting with the Moon. This wide research topic mainly covers learning about ground conditions and soils of these extraterrestrial bodies, looking for means of using the soil in producing construction materials, designing structures appropriate for local conditions, and finally choosing construction techniques to be applied using mainly these materials. In this paper, as the title indicates, an overview is presented on three aspects of using local materials in lunar construction activities: nature of in-situ soils obtained with lunar missions, the variety of lunar soil simulants produced on Earth, and their use in producing lunar construction materials.
