3. Self-healing concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-healing_concrete

   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. Because concrete has a poor tensile strength compared to other building materials, it often develops cracks in the surface. These cracks reduce the durability ...

4. Crack spacing of reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

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

   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. Self-healing material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-healing_material

   Autogenous healing is the natural ability of cementitious materials to repair cracks. This ability is principally attributed to further hydration of unhydrated cement particles and carbonation of dissolved calcium hydroxide. [105] Cementitious materials in fresh-water systems can autogenously heal cracks up to 0.2 mm over a period of 7 weeks. [106]
