Biotech solutions for concrete repair with enhanced durability

In this chapter an overview will be given of the biotechnological possibilities for repair of concrete with focus on application of limestone-producing bacteria and the different metabolic pathways involved, e.g., via hydrolysis of urea and heterotrophic CO2 product ...

Self-healing of cracks in concrete via bacterial aerobic metabolic conversion of organic compounds
Self-healing of cracks in concrete can be achieved by application of bacteria which metabolically convert organic compounds under aerobic conditions yielding limestone. Added to the concrete mix as part of a healing agent, bacteria can, via metabolic activity resulting in limesto ...

SHCC3: Strain Hardening Cementitious Composites

3rd International RILEM Conference on Strain Hardening Cementitious Composites

Strain-Harding Cement Composites (SHCC) are classes of fibre-reinforced cement-based composites in which crack formation in the cement-based matrix is controlled by fibres bridging carcks to the extent that multiple, closely fine cracks form at increasing tensile deformation and ...
