Concrete plays a vital role in the present construction industry. For a durable structure, good quality concrete must be used. A Self- Healing Concrete for the Future which says a common soil bacterium was used to induce calcite precipitation which is highly desirable because the mineral precipitation induced as a result of microbial activities is pollution free and natural. The workability test of the bacterial concrete resulted in 90mm of slump value. We have casted a beam of size 500mm x 100mm x 100mm with 20% addition of bacillus spherics and made some tiny cracks by giving little load and the observation of the healing process of the crack is going on. We have also found out that the compressive strength of the bacterial concrete with 10% and 20% of addition of bacillus sphaericus as 13.07% and 13.75 % respectively. Same way we have found out that the split tensile strength of the bacterial concrete with 10% and 20% of addition of bacillus spherics as 3.15% and 7.25% respectively
