Abstract
Smart Building and Construction Materials
Highlights
In this special issue, after rigorous peer-review processes, the original research papers and review papers accepted cover a wide range of topics that address the critical issues in the development and implementation of smart materials for building design and construction
Extensive effort has been devoted to the applications of stimuli-responsive smart materials and nanostructures in buildings. ese smart materials used in the built environment can be defined as those offering specific functional and adaptable properties in response to thermal, optical, structural, and environmental stimuli
Given the increasing imperatives for the above, we have organized this themed special issue that focuses on smart buildings and construction materials. e main aim of this special issue is to encapsulate the current interest and state of research related to the smart materials in building and construction applications, underpinning current and future challenges in building energy, environmental sustainability, and structural safety and durability
Summary
Advances and innovations in materials science and engineering have always played a substantial role in civil engineering, building structural design, and construction. Extensive effort has been devoted to the applications of stimuli-responsive smart materials and nanostructures in buildings. Ese smart materials used in the built environment can be defined as those offering specific functional and adaptable properties in response to thermal, optical, structural, and environmental stimuli.
