In this study, the crack selfhealing performance of the heavyweight concrete used in the walls of containers and structures designed to shield radioactive materials was investigated. A steam curing temperature that preserves selfhealing properties and demolding strength was identified. The presented simultaneously mixing method using the expanding material and the fly ash in the process of admixture can maximize the selfcuring performance. Also adding synthetic fibers in the heavyweight concrete improved the selfhealing performance.
