By the tensile test of ECC at different pre-loading, the paper measured the resonant frequency (RF) in the process of self recovery, and studied the effect of different conditioning cycles including wet/dry (C1), water/hot air (C2), water (C3) and air (C4) on crack self-healing of ECC materials,thus provided the basis for the application of practical engineering.The results show that water plays a vital role for self-healing.The increase of RF under different conditioning cycles mainly occurrs within 3 to 7 days. After 10 cycles,the actual RF recovery due to self-healing is nearly 70%. The order of RF recovery under different conditioning cycles is C3>C1>C2>C4. Compared to different ratio of ECC, HFA-ECC has higher RF recovery than that of M45-ECC. The crack of ECC can produce apparent self-healing. ECC has good application prospect.
