Smart construction materials, which also known as intelligent materials, active materials and, adoptive materials, are those that have the capability to respond to changes in their condition or the environment to which they are exposed, in a useful and controlled manner. The input that cause the change in smart material properties may be in the form of mechanical stress / strain, electrical / magnetic field or changes in temperature, moisture, pH, and light. Their unique properties make them a crucial material in many fields of engineering and science. They are used in civil engineering projects and contribute in increasing performance, comfortability, and energy efficiency of structure.Smart Construction Materials – Applications in Civil Engineering
