"The BBC brings news of an exciting new construction technology: Self-reparing concrete. By placing limestone-producing bacteria within the mixture used to create concrete, scientists are developing a new, more durable form with the ability to self-repair its own cracks. Considering that concrete is the most common building material in the world, this is no small matter. "..................
I heard about this, they are also making self-repairing glass for windshields and other things. Good stuff!
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
LOL wrote: On the flip side, a concrete "bacteria" could potentially be damaging if it was destructive instead of acting to repair concrete. Use with caution!
Yea, I see a lot of Blob sequels in the future. "The Day I-5 ate LA", Highways Gone Wild", "Texas Highway Massacre"................
