Abstract

This chapter explores the integration of nano-composite materials into engineered cementitious composites (ECC), highlighting its significant impact on structural resilience, durability, and performance. It discusses innovative methodologies and advancements in ECC formulation, including nanoparticles like carbon nanotubes, graphene, and nano-sized additives. The advantages of ECC include enhanced strength, improved ductility, and increased resistance to environmental stressors. The chapter also examines the environmental sustainability quotient and potential challenges in large-scale implementation. It promises a sustainable future for construction practices.
