PhytoCivils: Integrating Plant-Based Biological Intelligence into Civil Engineering for Climate-ResilientInfrastructure

This work establishes <b>PhytoCivils</b> as a groundbreaking discipline in civil engineering. Unlike conventional material substitution approaches, it integrates living systems directly into structural roles. The paper provides conceptual and comparative models for:<b>RAM™ (Root Anchored Masonry):</b> retaining walls reinforced by engineered roots.<b>Biorebar™:</b> plant-fiber reinforcement as a low-carbon substitute for steel.<b>FungaGrid™:</b> mycelium-based soil stabilization.<b>Sapwall Memory™:</b> bio-active walls for natural thermal regulation.By merging <b>structural engineering with ecological intelligence</b>, PhytoCivils opens pathways for <b>resilient, affordable, and sustainable infrastructure</b> in climate-vulnerable areas.
