Abstract: The paper deals with an introduction and implementation of super performing building materials
and techniques all in terms of energy saving efficiency of the material, cost efficiency, application feasibility,
availability, vernacular characteristics, life span, etc. A material is considered smart only when it contributes
something to upgrade the quality of building. With all those advancements in construction techniques and also
with the demand of end users for the smart buildings we as constructors and designers are ought to introduce
something new and smart to fulfill their demands and needs. Smart structures and material technologies are a
tool for sharing the knowledge of how various building materials can significantly increase production and profit
using advanced communication, collaboration and management technologies. The paper provides an overview of
the types of materials available giving a new insight into innovative methods and techniques that will be
available, and open new doors for advancement and improvement in the construction industry. The new
materials discussed in this paper present a small fraction of the options that are available for use by industry.

with organic fibers for applications with less load and dried, the pavement has a porous texture that allows
for advanced architectural applications. water to drain through it at the rate of 8 to 12 gallons
per minute per square foot. Tests conclude that a
square foot of Bahia sod drains at the rate of 2 1/2 to
3 gallons per minute. According to the manufacturer,
this rapid flow-through ratio inspired the phrase “the
pavement that drinks water.”
