2. Self-healing concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-healing_concrete

   Self-healing concrete. Self-healing concrete is characterized as the capability of concrete to fix its cracks on its own autogenously or autonomously. It not only seals the cracks but also partially or entirely recovers the mechanical properties of the structural elements. This kind of concrete is also known as self-repairing concrete.

3. Crocodile cracking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crocodile_cracking

   The repair needed also differs based on the severity and extent of the cracking. For minor cracks, preventative crack filling is a good procedure that can help prevent future potholes from forming. In the early stages, sealing cracks with crack sealant limits further deterioration of the subgrade due to moisture penetration.

4. Crack spacing of reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crack_spacing_of...

   Crack spacing of reinforced concrete. Concrete is a brittle material and can only withstand small amount of tensile strain due to stress before cracking. When a reinforced concrete member is put in tension, after cracking, the member elongates by widening of cracks and by formation of new cracks. Figure 1 Formation of internal cracks.

5. Alkali–silica reaction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali–silica_reaction

   Alkali–silica reaction. Characteristic crack pattern associated with the alkali–silica reaction affecting a concrete step barrier on a US motorway. Note the typical fatty aspect of the silicagel exudations imbibing the concrete surface along the two sides of the cracks. [1][2] The alkali–silica reaction (ASR), also commonly known as ...

6. Concrete pavement restoration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_Pavement_Restoration

   Dowel bar retrofit (DBR) is a process that re-establishes load transfer capability on joints and cracks by installing epoxy-coated, round steel dowels into existing concrete pavement across transverse joints and/or cracks. Slots are cut using diamond-tipped saw blades; the existing concrete is removed and the dowels are placed in the slots ...

7. Filler (materials) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filler_(materials)

   Filler materials are particles added to resin or binders (plastics, composites, concrete) that can improve specific properties, make the product cheaper, or a mixture of both. [1] The two largest segments for filler material use is elastomers and plastics. [2] Worldwide, more than 53 million tons of fillers (with a total sum of approximately US ...
