Self-healing concrete is a type of concrete that can automatically repair cracks that form on its surface. This is possible because the concrete contains capsules filled with a healing agent. When a crack forms, the capsules break open and release the healing agent, which fills the crack and bonds the concrete back together. Self-healing concrete has the potential to significantly reduce the need for maintenance and repair of concrete structures, which can save time and money. Here is a YouTube video about self-healing concrete: https://lnkd.in/dAtHVvih #civilengineering #concrete #construction #innovation #engineering #futureofconstruction #infrastructure
