Self-Healing of Concrete

Deepak kumar

Abstract


In this research paper detail of self-healing of concrete is specified. Various developments are running to study self-healing mechanisms. In this mechanism bacteria are mixed in concrete that make concrete structures water tight and upsurges durability. The concrete that can hit its own crashes.
