    WHAT IS IT? The material properties of concrete can be altered through the
    High performance concrete is a broad insertion of elements. More specifically, carbon nanotubes.
    range of design mixes that provide Carbon nanotubes are carbon molecules contained within a
    concrete with improved cylindrical nanostructure. By inserting carbon nanotubes into
    characteristics, including strength and concrete, its properties are improved. Strength of the concrete is
