Course Description:

This course explores the innovative concept of self-healing concrete and its potential applications in sustainable landscape architecture. Participants will examine the use of recycled aggregates as carriers for microbial self-healing concrete (SHC) and its impact on repair performance over time. The course will delve into the bioremediation capacity of different aggregates and the mechanisms involved in the self-healing process. Additionally, the course will explore the use of biotechnology in the synthesis of calcium carbonate for cement production and the role of microencapsulation in controlling the crystallization process. Participants will also analyze the environmental and energetic benefits of self-healing concrete and its contribution to building a sustainable society.


Learning Objectives:

1. Attendees will understand the concept of self-healing concrete and its relevance to sustainable landscape architecture.

2. Attendees will understand  the bioremediation capacity of different aggregates as carriers for microbial self-healing concrete.

3. Attendees will learn about the implications of using recycled aggregates and low-carbon concrete in landscape architecture projects for retrofitting existing infrastructure.
