Abstract

Engineering, Architecture and Medicine are the concepts that exist since the human being has been created in the world, arise regularly in response to human needs health, practice and living. Nevertheless, do we ever consider before the correlation between nano-engineering, nano-architecture and nano-medicine in terms of the nano-structured solutions that scientists discover worldwide in an interdisciplinary platform, getting advance rapidly. Until 2000s, the most inventive revolution was industrial revolution that hit the headlines during 18., 19. century, based on steel and its innovations. However, today the science world considers and discuss for nanotech as a contemporary intelligence that will be expected to be the world leader forever. So, what are the dreams and what are the limitations for this new nano-world, how efficient are the results, how much repetitive, what is the criteria for the success and what must be the standards? The aim of this research welcomes all the scientists to a new dimension of the nanotech world to discuss for all the affects, critics and drawbacks of nanoscience. What are our concerns, how safe it is, what can be the further risks that we have to face in terms of the health concerns on human and environmental concerns on nature? The size nano has a big question that disorient our minds which is hardly possible to guess all the effects without experiencing the drawbacks. Therefore, the question is; how it could be possible to get precautions against toxicity and how to make a balance to adopt to a new high tech world of nano-architecture? On the other hand, what makes nano-tech so innovative and what creates the magic? How quantum theory and nano-particle kinetics concepts manage to amaze nano-scientists with its innovations and extraordinary outcomes? Is it possible to create shortcut solutions between the results that has been achieved in nano-medicine to nano-architecture? How the theory and application procedure of nano-tech can be parallel to multiple solution concepts? How sustainable are these solutions? With all the great intelligence of nano-world, how it is possible to enhance the quality standards of high tech buildings and constructions, how these new findings affect the mechanical strength, structural configuration and construction technology. Moreover, high tech building technology standard by using nano – innovation technology goes towards to a new dimension that have been called “smart building technology and smart cities”. In this concept, “zero energy buildings” theory is a main research area for all the construction scientists coming with a big question to discuss “what cause zero energy? How this could be possible?” Meantime, the construction technology is going towards a century that multifunctional creations and designs has been awarded and worth to discuss for. The recent instance and the most intelligent creation that has been emerged is ‘SHED NY Art Center” completed on 5 April 2019, by Diller Scofidio + Renfro Architecture Design Office. Exclusively, all these innovations on the idea of construction and functionality challenge brings the responsibility to find new solutions for the emerging energy and efficiency needs for these high tech creations. All in all, “Smart Building Technologies” and “Solar Panel Concentrator Systems” for this type functional creations are new criterias that need to be discussed further to find the source of the energy for the routine management of this type buildings. So, how efficiency standards could be modified related to advancement of the construction technology and how the new sources of the energy could be provided? During this research, the answers of all these questions will be criticized with all aspects. An innovative algorithm will be created about the way how to integrate the needs, with solutions, norms and regulations of nanotechnology. Evaluation of efficiency (EE) and success parameters will be examined that will result to understand the limits and the advantages of nano- treatments, with the drawbacks and risks as well. The idea of this research has application to patent for Politecnico di Milano POLIMI IRIS: 05.1. Brevetto & Patent Application: 2018. Nanotechnology In Architectural Restoration: Science & Innovation: Hybrid Nano - Composite Design for Consolidation of the Porous Structures: Limestone & Bone “Transport Phenomena”, ID: hdl:11311/1065405.
