Concrete has an autogenous ability to heal cracks potentially contributing to its functional water tightness and durability. Here, we quantify the crack-healing capacity of sea-water submerged mortar specimens through a simple and rapid permeability test. Defined crack width geometries were created in blast furnace slag cement specimens allowing healed specimens to be quantified against unhealed specimens. Specimens with 02 mm wide cracks were not permeable after 28 days submersion. Specimens with 0.4 mm cracks had decreases in permeability of 66% after 28 days submersion, and 50-53% after 56 days submersion. Precipitation of aragonite and brucite in the cracks was the main cause of crack healing. Healing potential was dependent on the initial crack width, thermodynamic considerations and the amount of ions available in the crack. To our knowledge, this is the first study to quantify the functional autogenous healing capacity of cracked sea-water exposed cementitious specimens. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
