Study on Mechanical Properties of Self Healing Self Curing Concrete
Concrete is one of the most widely used construction material in industry. It has high compressive strength but low tensile strength. The low tensile strength may result in crack formation which seriously affects the life of concrete. A solution to this is the introduction of self-healing properties in concrete. Also the properties of hardened concrete will mainly depend on its extent of hydration. Proper curing methods can be used to achieve proper hydration. Bacterially induced self-healing by calcium carbonate precipitation has been proposed as an eco-friendly method in recent years. The bacterium selected for the study is Bacillus Subtilis JC3. The present study concentrates on the effect of bacteria as self -healing agent in self-curing concrete and its optimum percentage in strength aspects of hardened concrete.
