The phenomenal compound and physical properties of Nano materials empower novel applications extending from vitality protection to antimicrobial properties and self-cleaning surfaces to secondary quality improvement in various subjects. The Construction material properties can be enhanced by presenting trademark structures on the nanometer scale. Nanotechnology incorporates the control of the one of a kind properties of issue existing at the \"nanoscale\". Bunches of iotas and particles show properties very not quite the same as those found at bigger scales. Subsequently, produced nanomaterials (MNMs) and nanocomposites are being considered for different uses in the development and related framework ventures. This order speaks to a chance to increase remarkable understanding into the interesting marvels existing at the nanoscale and to utilize that information to design materials/gadgets with novel attributes. This paper features the advancements in the field of Nanotechnology and specifically to toss light on a portion of the uses of this very developing innovation in Civil Engineering and Design area. Accentuation has been given on the ongoing progressions and the conceivable zones where Nanotechnology and Nano materials may discover its applications in structural designing and related spaces.
