One of the major issues to be addressed when coming to construction is the choice of the appropriate material. An already, classical implementation of the field techniques, widely used for construction is Cement, Steel, Glass, Wood etc. are the main components of any construction now a days. In recent years, several emerging high strength materials have attracted enormous attention as potential candidates for construction. High strength steels has been used as main part of building for more than 40 years because of its manufacturability and ability to deliver continued tensile improvements as it has been made ever stronger. Being a good and responsible citizen of India we here are presenting the paper that tries to solve the problems of the Indian Army with the best of the technologies that we have so that they can have the good condition for the work and as they ensure our protection we can ensure that they are more safer while protecting us. We here have compared the tradition base camps and the condition of the work and tried to solve their problems with the use of Nanotechnology. The unique properties of nanomaterial’s have provide its beneficial use in various fields and have considerably grown to a large scale in field of defense for Developed nations. Here the nanotech concepts we have used to modify the tradition methods of national security and give sustainability to the defense industries. Although these materials have unique properties along with that few considerations like cost and economy is to be made.
