Nanotechnology in civil and environmental engineering is a rapidly growing field. This technology has the potential to enhance the strength and durability of construction materials and assist in environmental impact assessment, environmental modeling, pollution control, and waste management. Some of the innovations in this field include smart and self-healing concrete, nano-enhanced geotechnical and pavement materials, nanosensors for pollution control, impact assessment, and wastewater treatment. 

Nanotechnology is essential for creating environmentally friendly, durable, sustainable, and cost-effective construction and environmental solutions. It has the potential to revolutionize the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of physical infrastructure and the environment. This Methods Collection aims to gather original research, reviews, and abstracts on the use of nanomaterials and nanotechnology in civil construction and environmental engineering. Additionally, it may consider related applications of nanotechnology.
