Contribuições à produção do concreto fluido com fibras de borracha e de polipropileno e adição de resíduos do beneficiamento do mármore e granito

Abstract

The Fluid Concrete (FC) is a concrete that has high fluidity, which may allow the filling of molds without the need of mechanical compaction, only under the action of its own weight. As a concrete whole, the FC has low tensile strength, and an alternative to minimize this limitation is the inclusion of fibers to the concrete. The incorporation of fiber reinforced composite and induce tensile stresses. Within this context, this paper aims to provide a contribution to the production of a fluid concrete fiber, rubber and polypropylene and addition of waste from the processing of marble and granite(FFC). The methodology dosage used was Gomes (2002) for obtaining fluid concrete (FC) being adapted for insertion of fiber. To study the properties of compacting tests were carried out in the fresh state, such as scattering, V funnel and box L. To check the mechanical properties tests were performed in the hardened state, such as compression, tensile and modulus of elasticity with cylindrical body-of - proof dimensions of 10cm x 20cm RC and FFC, with fiber content rubber 2.0% polypropylene and 0.25% of the amount by weight of cement. As a result, the SC showed a decrease in scattering maximum diameter with increasing fiber content entered. The compressive strength and modulus of elasticity decreased, since the tensile strength showed an increase when compared to RC. From the results it is concluded that the FFC is not self compacting concrete, but has characteristics of self compacting, the increase in tensile strength indicates a higher ability to absorb impact. The FFC helps reduce scrap waste, reducing the environmental impact by becoming a ecoeffient concrete.
