Abstract:Buildings are facilities created by humans to support various human activities. Potential damage to old buildings, such as the appearance of cracks in building concrete. Self-healing is carried out by bacteria to repair micro cracks that occur in concrete by deposition of CaCO3. Bacteria-based preservatives consist of bacterial spores and organic compounds that are incorporated into the concrete structure. This research aims to determine the effect of variations in the concentration of E. coli bacteria on comp… Show more
