Nanoconcrete is an attractive research area because of its recent practical applications in building materials technologies. This study investigates the individual and combined effects of using nanoparticles in concrete mixtures as a cement substitute. Microscopic images are also used to determine changes in the microstructure of modified concrete in the present study. Concrete’s thermal and mechanical properties, including thermal conductivity (k), specific heat capacity (C), thermal diffusivity (α), and compressive strength (σ), are the leading concrete characteristics examined. The current study used different percentages (0%, 1%, 3%, and 5%) of nano-SiO₂, nano-TiO₂, and combined nano-SiO₂/TiO₂ particles as cement substitutes for 7 and 28 days of curing to examine the characteristics of nanoconcrete compared to conventional concrete (CC). The results indicated that adding individual nanoparticles to CC could improve concrete’s thermal and mechanical properties. Among the investigated nanomaterials (nano-SiO₂, nano-TiO₂, and combined nano-SiO₂/TiO₂ particles), nano-SiO₂ was superior in that context. The optimal thermal properties of nanoconcrete were achieved when 5% nano-SiO₂ (C-S5 specimen) was added. The k and α coefficients of sample C-S5 compared to the CC specimen were reduced by 65.6% and 80.3%, respectively, while the C coefficient was increased by 12.8%. Meanwhile, the optimal compressive strength coefficient of nanoconcrete was achieved when 3% nano-SiO₂ (C-S3 specimen) was added, where the compressive strength coefficient of sample C-S3 compared to sample CC was increased by 19.6%. In contrast, for the combined effect, the thermal properties of concrete were improved, but the compressive strength coefficient of concrete was reduced. Overall, the present experimental findings offer valuable information about the impact of nanotechnology on high-performance concrete to save energy in buildings.
