STUDY OF SELF-HEALING BIO-CONCRETE

In recent years, along with the continuous improvement of existing materials, contributing to a significant technical and economic effect due to a unique combination of properties, there have been trends in the creation of new materials capable of actively interacting with external factors [1]. Such materials are called "intellectual". They are able to "feel" their physical condition, external influences and react in a special way to these "sensations", i.e. able to self-diagnose the occurrence and development of the defect, its elimination and stabilize their condition in critical areas. Due to the variety of properties of “intelligent” materials, their use will allow monitoring and predicting the state of various structures and structures at the required time and even in hard-to-reach areas, significantly increasing the service life of the systems and their reliability. It is known that animals and plants have the natural ability to heal small bodily injuries in a relatively short period of time without any external influence. In concrete, there is also a built-in recovery mechanism, which is caused by continuously ongoing physical, chemical and mechanical processes
