dc.description.abstract	The paper reviews the potential application of NFC in construction, identifies the prerequisite mechanical properties for equivalency, and prepares the targeted values for mechanical properties of NFC in construction. The mechanical properties required were Young’s Modulus, compressive strength, tensile strength, impact resistance Izod, flexural strength and shear strength. The paper provides an overview of the procedures followed to establish the target values for the identified mechanical properties	en
