Micro-crack is the start of concrete deterioration and failure, though it does not decrease the bearing capacity in the beginning. In order to prolong the service life of existing concrete structures, it is important to repair the existing micro-cracks before they develop into large cracks, which are much more harmful. Bio-genic CaCO3 from microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) process is proved to be a promising crack repair material due to its environmental friendliness and super compatibility with cementitious matrix. In this study, MICP based repair technology was applied to repair micro-cracks. The influence of crack environment and repair technique on the precipitation of bio-CaCO3 was investigated. Results shown that moderate alkali pH had limited effect on the properties of bio-CaCO3. Bacteria could still induce the CaCO3 precipitation in crack if it was saturated with Ca2+ containing deposition medium. Crack of a width 0.5mm can be fully sealed within 3 days by use of a controlled injection technique. |
