BACTERIAL SELF-HEALING EFFECT IN DIFFERENT TYPES OF ADVANCE CONCRETE – A REVIEW

Abstract

Concrete is most efficient and worldwide using material after the water due to easily available and casting
on site. In the present study, deterioration of concrete in terms of cracks and voids is studied. The durability always
play vital role to decide the life span of structure More or less concrete is a composite material composed of coarse
aggregate bonded together with a fluid cement pest which hardens over the time. So there are many chances and
reasons to develop a voids and cracks in the concrete while casting and placing. And to resolve this problems various
admixtures and other construction chemical used before and after the construction work. Here some biological
experimental work is been carried out to filled up the pre and post construction cracks. In present study, my
dissertation work is carried out to study the self-healing process in different type of sustainable concrete and to check
effect on compressive strength. The experiments also done on existing structure for fill up the cracks. For fulfill of my
object various literature studied on biological self-healing process as a part of my research work. My scope of
research work to study the mechanical properties such as compressive strength on High Volume Fly Ash Concrete
(HVFAC), Ultra High Strength Concrete (UHSC) and Light Weight Concrete (LWC) with application of self-healing
agents.
