Journal of Fashion Technology - Juniper publishers Opinion Our modern day technologies require materials bearing unusual combination of properties which cannot be present in conventional materials such as metal, ceramics and polymeric materials. It is especially evident with materials in use for construction applications. Composites are emerging as realistic alternatives to the metal alloys in many applications like construction, automobiles, marine, aerospace applications, sports goods, etc. Composites, which are combination of different materials leading to a new material, are often used in civil engineering. The reason behind use of composites is nonexistence of optimal plain material with regard to structural and economic performance. Thus, it is necessary to combine the advantageous properties of single materials for instance load-bearing capacity, durability, weight and costs, along with elimination of draw backs. The applications related to construction industry
