Building and Construction Authority 52 Jurong Gateway Road #11-01 Singapore 608550 Dear Sir/Madam, Re: Proposal to Implement Self-Healing Bacteria Agent into Concrete Enclosed for your kind consideration is a response toward the request for a proposal on developing solutions for an engineering problem in Singapore. The enclosed report has been prepared with the objective of implementing a self-healing bacteria agent into today’s concrete mix practices to heal cracks located in historical buildings. This proposal explores the lack of self-healing properties in the concrete structures of historical buildings located in Singapore and discusses the mechanism of the self-healing bacteria agent, which consists of calcium lactate and a bacteria called “bacillus”. The benefits and limitations of our proposed solution are provided as well. In conjunction with Singapore’s efforts to preserve its heritage, implementing a self-healing bacteria agent into concrete mix practices to
