Graphene and its derivatives, as a nano-additive, influence the composition and microstructure of building materials and enhance their physical and mechanical characteristics. The incorporation of graphene-based materials in asphalt preparation has shown some fascinating results with excellent mechanical, thermal, and physical properties. Despite promising results of utilizing graphene-based materials in the construction industry, their research and application trends are unremarkable. In this regard, this review summarizes graphene-based materials in accordance with their applications as construction materials. The focus is on the performance improvement of graphene-based-modified building materials due to physical, chemical, and directional modification of graphene-based composites. The application of graphene-based materials in various construction materials, such as cement, anti-corrosion coatings, thermal and acoustic insulators, asphalt, and firefighting materials, are highlighted. Adding graphene to building materials improves durability, mechanical strength, hardness, and flexibility. However, modification, stability, compatibility, and uniform dispersion are among the key merits of developing optimized construction materials for the specified application. These materials with exceptional properties open new opportunities to give a boost to construction and building technology in terms of environmental protection and energy consumption. This review points out the enhancements that graphene may offer to the construction industry regarding main challenges in the future. Opportunities and limitations could guide researchers in the field to solve challenges, provide directions for future studies, and optimize construction materials on the basis of their applications. � 2022 Elsevier Ltd Final 2023-05-29T09:36:26Z 2023-05-29T09:36:26Z 2022 Review 10.1016/j.compositesb.2022.110188 2-s2.0-85136050902 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85136050902&doi=10.1016%2fj.compositesb.2022.110188&partnerID=40&md5=4d1f68057c20913924fd4b8d21552cef https://irepository.uniten.edu.my/handle/123456789/26737 245 110188 Elsevier Ltd Scopus
