Self-Healing Phenomena in Cement-Based Materials

Part of the book series: RILEM State-of-the-Art Reports ((RILEM State Art Reports,volume 11))

Introduction

This state of the art report discusses self-healing concepts in cement based materials. Cement based materials have a self-healing property by nature. This autogenic self-healing ability of these materials is known for years and also investigated and proven my many authors, as described in the previous chapters. The autonomic self-healing ability, in which the material is designed to be selfhealing, is rather new.
