Cementitious materials are the most widely used building materials all over the word.
However, deterioration is inevitable even since the very beginning of the service life, then …

In this paper, mechanisms of self-healing in cementitious materials, ie autogenous self-
healing, self-healing based on mineral admixtures, self-healing based on bacteria and self …

This study aims to develop and apply self-healing concrete as a new method for crack
control and enhanced service life in concrete structure. This concept is one of the …

Cementitious materials are the most frequently used building materials globally, with a wide
range of applications and increasing demand. The concrete possesses a few limitations …

The healing mechanisms and healing performance of cementitious materials are reviewed,
including autogenic self-healing and bacteria-based self-healing, as well as the use of …

Crack characteristics of M45-ECC and HFA-ECC specimens pre-loaded to strain levels of
0.3%, 0.5%, 1.0% and 2.0% were investigated in this paper. This was done at different ages …

The need for viable materials in sustainable infrastructures is driving the creation of
multifunctional strain-hardening cementitious composites that combine brittle cementitious …

Concrete is being extensively used in construction industry worldwide because of its
