The objective of the present investigation is to obtain the performance of the concrete by the microbiologically induced special growth. One such thought has lead to the development of a very special concrete known as Bacterial Concrete where bacteria is induced in concrete used to mix the ingredients to make concrete. Here an introducing attempt was made by using the bacteria “Bacillus flexus” Concrete cubes were casted with and without addition of bacteria and it is observed that there is an improvement in the compressive strength for the cubes with the addition of bacteria. Concrete cylinders with and without addition of bacteria was cast and it is observed that there is an improvement in the Split tensile strength for the cylinders with the addition of bacteria and Concrete beams are casted with and without bacteria, we observed that increasing flexural strength of beams casted with bacteria. The maximum strength in all cases occurred at bacterial concentration of 105 cells/ml.
