Abstract:
The use of new materials and techniques may be appropriate to obtain a final product that has innovative and desirable features. This work aims to evaluate the application of polymeric waste from the recycling process in the production of interlocking blocks, with partial replacement of the sand, evaluating the behavior of the final product submitted to the climatic conditions of the Brazilian semiarid. For the classification of inputs, aggregate characterization tests were performed and then, having as variables the percentages of polymeric residues and the water / cement factor, combinations were made between the variables in order to reduce the number of tests to be performed, and in parallel, an analysis of the properties of the blocks produced with addition of polymeric residues was performed, with the configurations that correspond to the standard model, where there is no addition of residues, through the quality control assays. The specimens presented satisfactory results, demonstrating to be viable the use of polymeric residues for production of interlocked peeps.
