Review of the use of nanomaterials in soils for construction of roads
Estado del arte del uso de nano materiales en suelos para construcción de carreteras
Main Article Content
Nano materials are becoming more and more relevant in the construction of civil works, since they can be used as additions or additives to improve and stabilize asphalt concretes, hydraulic concretes, fine soils at the level of subgrade, sub-bases, bases and even for filters in water treatment. The present article intends to collect the different experiences in the use of nano materials, in order to stabilize or improve the mechanical and geotechnical properties of soils used in road construction, especially what has to do with the manufacture of nano fibers for use in soils; finding that its use in the field of roads is to be investigated and developed with different types of solutions, as the most studied are the carbon nano fibers
