Abstract
- The novel field of bio-inspired self-healing concrete solutions is examined in this research, emphasising the application of biological concepts to civil engineering procedures. Motivated by the natural world, namely the biomineralized Bacillus subtilis, this research explores self-healing concrete’s creation, workings, and uses. This study highlights sustainable infrastructure options by thoroughly examining biological processes, material developments, and structural applications. By using bio-inspired techniques to improve concrete constructions’ robustness, lifespan, and durability, the study offers a path for engineering the future and eventually advances current civil engineering practices.
