1. INTRODUCTION
Concrete is todays material of choice for construction worldwide because of its strength and cost effectiveness. Concrete is
a mixture of cement, water, sand and other aggregates in
adequate proportions. It has high compressive strength and can
withstand vast range of environmental changes quite
effectively. where its system behaviour is influenced by the
environment. Environmental influences can initiate cracking
of the concrete due to changes and differences in temperature,
changes in moisture content, and internal drying shrinkage.
This natural initiation of cracks is a problem for the brittle

2.3.1 Bacillus subtilis strain JC3
Bacillus subtilis, known also as the hay bacillus or grass
bacillus, is a Gram-positive, catalase-positive bacterium. A
member of the genus Bacillus, subtilis is rod-shaped, and has
the ability to form a tough, protective endospore, allowing the
organism
to
tolerate
extreme
environmental
conditions. subtilis has historically been classified as
an obligate aerobe.

4. LITERATURE REVIEW
Bacterial material as a smart material can be utilized in
various construction areas to improve the performance of
structure in new era. The bacterial concrete can be made by
embedding bacteria in the concrete that are able to constantly
