dc.description.abstract	The aim of this study was to evaluate performance of novel ureolytic bacterial species, that can self-heal cracks by calcium carbonate precipitation. Jute fiber is used as a potential immobilizer for bacteria in self-healing. Six different formulations are formed, and mechanical strength tests are carried out. Visual observations of self-healing indicate the surface sealing of cracks. MATLAB image processing indicates the average percentage of CaCO3 precipitation in the concrete samples.	en_US
