Diseño y evaluación del comportamiento mecánico a prototipos de materiales suelo-cemento correctores orgánicos y yeso

Abstract

Abstract: The large amount of agro-industrial wastes has prompted the development of new construction materials. The present research work presents a systematic review of the physical, chemical, mineralogical and mechanical properties obtained through laboratory tests of non load-bearing masonry prototypes that were elaborated from the use of organic correctors (CA, CM) and gypsum as aggregate in the SC mix. As will be seen in the development of this work, the soil in the SC base mix was replaced by 2.5% with CA and CM for the SC-CA and SC-CM mixes, while for the SC-gypsum mix, 7.5% gypsum was incorporated. For the validation of the compression and bending results obtained in the laboratory, a computational simulation was carried out, thus obtaining the percentage of error in the stress and deformation variables of the specimens. It is expected that this work will encourage the search and review of literature focused on the incorporation of agroindustrial wastes in an innovative way that will allow an economical and sustainable construction.
