It has a very wide range of applications throughout the building & civil engineering industry. Concrete cloth is a flexible; cement impregnated fabric that hardens when hydrated to form a thin, durable, water & fire proof concrete layer. CC allows concrete construction without the need for plant or mixing equipment. Simply position the canvas & just add water. CC has a design life of above 10 years and is significantly quicker and less expensive to install compared to conventional concrete. This paper focuses the uses and applications of using Concrete canvas or Concrete cloth in civil engineering. For Rapid and fast construction of structures like canals and many other which are made for temporary purpose. In the paper the engineering properties of the material is also discussed. Keyphrases: Concrete Cloth, Concrete canvas, Fireproof, flexibility, waterproof
