Advanced Materials in Structural Engineering: Innovations and Applications

Abstract

Priya Menon

The rapid growth of global infrastructure demands has driven innovations in structural engineering materials. Traditional materials such as steel and concrete are now being complemented—and in some cases replaced—by advanced composites, high-performance concrete, and smart materials. The primary aim of these advancements is to enhance structural performance, sustainability, and cost efficiency. Nanotechnology integration, fiber-reinforced polymers, and self-healing concretes have revolutionized the way engineers approach large-scale construction projects. By improving mechanical properties, extending lifespan, and reducing maintenance costs, advanced materials are reshaping the future of construction. This paper explores key innovations, real-world applications, and challenges associated with implementing these technologies.
