2. Self-healing concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-healing_concrete

   Autogenous self-healing crack. Self-healing concrete is characterized as the capability of concrete to fix its cracks on its own autogenously or autonomously. It not only seals the cracks but also partially or entirely recovers the mechanical properties of the structural elements. This kind of concrete is also known as self-repairing concrete.

3. Concrete leveling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_leveling

   In civil engineering, concrete leveling is a procedure that attempts to correct an uneven concrete surface by altering the foundation that the surface sits upon. It is a cheaper alternative to having replacement concrete poured and is commonly performed at small businesses and private homes as well as at factories, warehouses, airports and on roads, highways and other infrastructure.

4. Self-leveling concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-leveling_concrete

   Self-leveling concrete was invented in 1952 by Axel Karlsson from Sweden. The first product was a combination of wood glue, fine sand and cement with additives. [1] It was called flytspackel, which directly translates to "floating putty". The term self-leveling can be traced back to a patent applied by the company Lafarge in 1997. [2]

5. Self-consolidating concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-consolidating_concrete

   Self-consolidating concrete or self-compacting concrete (SCC) [1] is a concrete mix which has a low yield stress, high deformability, good segregation resistance (prevents separation of particles in the mix), and moderate viscosity (necessary to ensure uniform suspension of solid particles during transportation, placement (without external compaction), and thereafter until the concrete sets).

6. Self-healing material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-healing_material

   Based on a variety of self-sealing and self-healing processes in plants, different functional principles were transferred into bio-inspired self-repairing materials. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] [ 11 ] The connecting link between the biological model and the technical application is an abstraction describing the underlying functional principle of the ...

7. Concrete pavement restoration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_Pavement_Restoration

   CPP and CPR methods, developed over the last 40 years, are used in lieu of asphalt overlays and bituminous patches to repair roads when longer lasting solutions are desired. When installing pavers over top of an existing asphalt of concrete pad, there are three installation options: sand set, bituminous set, and mortar set. [1]
