Abstract: In order to investigate the effectiveness of microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) in repairing concrete cracks, concrete specimens with vertical crack width of 0.1 mm, 0.2 mm and 0.4 mm were repaired by MICP with diffusion method and injection method respectively. The effectiveness of repairing cracks was evaluated from the microscopic (composition and morphology of products) and macroscopic (durability and mechanical properties) levels. The results show that the sponge strip used in diffusion method not only store cementation solution, but also provide attachment point for calcium carbonate deposition. The waterproof performance and chloride aggressive resistance of concrete specimens with three crack widths repaired by diffusion method were better than those by injection method, and the average improvement coefficients of these two properties reach 79.7% and 60.9%, respectively. However, the increase of splitting tensile strength was not obvious. The above research results show that the diffusion method was effective to repair the vertical cracks in the unstressed state of the concrete members, which can provide reference for practical engineering.
