Self-healing of Early Age Cracks in Cement-based Materials by Mineralization of Carbonic Anhydrase Microorganism

This research investigated the self-healing potential of early age cracks in cement-based materials incorporating the bacteria which can produce carbonic anhydrase. Cement-based materials specimens were pre-cracked at the age of 7, 14, 28, 60 days to study the repair ability influenced by cracking t...
