CAPES / Os agregados reciclados vêm sendo amplamente estudados e utilizados em diversos campos da engenharia civil. Dentre suas aplicações mais comuns pode-se citar: argamassas de revestimento, bases, sub-bases e subleito de pavimentos, elementos pré-moldados de concreto, obras de contenção e aterros. O principal fator que dificulta a utilização do agregado reciclado em concretos está relacionado à capa de argamassa aderida à superfície. Esta capa tem elevada porosidade e consequentemente elevada absorção de água, o que proporciona ao concreto, menor trabalhabilidade, além do aumento do consumo de superplastificantes e de água, que por sua vez aumenta o consumo de cimento a fim de garantir a resistência mecânica à compressão. Estes fatores elevam o custo do concreto. O empacotamento de partículas, entre outros aspectos, estuda a adequada distribuição granulométrica e morfologia das partículas, bem como a incorporação de aditivos e adições minerais de modo que o índice de vazios seja o menor possível e a trabalhabilidade ideal para o concreto com determinada aplicação. O ajuste adequado desses parâmetros permite um aumento da resistência mecânica à compressão do concreto com o mesmo consumo de cimento ou, mantém a resistência com redução no consumo de cimento. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho é aplicar técnicas de empacotamento em agregados reciclados de concreto, a fim de avaliar a efetividade dessa ferramenta na definição de traços de concretos secos utilizados em blocos para pavimentação com resistência mecânica à compressão maior que 35 MPa. Para isso, os agregados reciclados da construção civil, produzidos por diferentes equipamentos de 4 diferentes empresas localizadas em um raio de 100 km da cidade de Curitiba – PR, foram caracterizados quanto a: morfologia, distribuição granulométrica, massa específica, massa unitária, índice de vazios, composição mássica e visual, além de absorção de água. Em seguida, foi escolhido o agregado que apresentou características físicas mais propícias ao melhor empacotamento, com base na morfologia, na distribuição granulométrica e nos valores de: absorção de água, massa unitária e específica. Escolhido o agregado aplicou-se dois modelos de empacotamento de partículas: o de Funk e Dinger (Alfred) de 1980 e o de De Larrard de 1999, com e sem a introdução do cimento na análise granulométrica. Com as proporções ideais dos agregados foi então estudado, por meio do consistômetro “VeBe”, a quantidade de água para cada traço de concreto. As composições que apresentaram os melhores resultados foram testadas quanto à absorção de água, resistência mecânica à compressão axial e à tração por compressão diametral e análise microestrutural por Microscópio Eletrônico de Varredura. Os concretos foram moldados por meio da mesma vibrocompactadora de laboratório utilizada por Lima (2009), a qual consiste de uma mesa vibratória e cilindros de aço aplicados sobre os moldes, para simular a força de compactação de vibrocompactadoras industriais. Dentro do desvio padrão considerado, o modelo de empacotamento de Funk e Dinger com a introdução do cimento na análise granulométrica apresentou os melhores resultados em relação a resistência à compressão aos 28 dias e em relação a absorção de água. Um tempo de vibrocompactação em laboratório equivalente ao de máquinas industriais foi determinado. Além disso, com o mesmo consumo de cimento, concretos com agregados reciclados alcançaram resistências mecânicas dentro do desvio padrão de concretos produzidos com agregados naturais, utilizados por indústrias de pré-moldados. / Recycled aggregates have been widely studied and used in some areas of civil engineering. Among its most common applications can include: revetment mortar, bases, sub-bases, and subgrade pavements, precast concrete elements, containment works and landfills. The main factor that hinders the use of recycled aggregate in concrete is related to the mortar layer adhered to the surface. This layer has high porosity and therefore high water absorption, which gives the concrete, lower workability, and increased content of superplasticizers and water, which in turn increases the consumption of cement in order to ensure the compressive strength. These factors increase the cost of the concrete. The particles packing, among other things, studying the proper particle size distribution and particle morphology, as well as the incorporation of additives and mineral additions such that the voids content is minimized and optimum workability to concrete with particular application. Proper adjustment of these parameters allows an increase mechanical strength of the concrete with the same cement content or, maintains the strength with reduction in the cement content. Thus, the objective of this work is to apply particles packing techniques in recycled concrete aggregates in order to evaluate the effectiveness of this tool in the dry concrete compositions used in paving blocks with compression mechanical strength to greater than 35 MPa. For this, the recycled concrete aggregates produced by different equipment of 4 different companies located within a radius of 100 km from the city of Curitiba - PR, were characterized for: morphology, particle size distribution, density, bulk density, void ratio, mass and visual composition and water absorption. Then, it was chosen the aggregate more favorable physical characteristics to the best packing, on the basis of morphology and the particle size analysis and the values of: water absorption, density and bulk density. Chosen the aggregate particles was applied to two packing packing models: Funk and Dinger (Alfred) of 1980 and De Larrard of 1999, with and without the introduction of cement in particle size distribution. With the ideal proportions of aggregates were then studied by means of consistometer "VeBe", the amount of water for each concrete mix. The compositions that showed the best results were tested for water absorption, mechanical resistance to axial compression, tensile strength by diametrical compression and microstructural analysis by Scanning Electron Microscope. The concrete was cast by the same laboratory vibro-compression machine used by Lima (2009), which consists of a vibrating table and steel rollers applied on the molds, to simulate the compaction force of industrial vibro-compression machine. Within the standard deviation considered the packing packing model of Funk and Dinger with the introduction of cement particle size analysis showed the best results with respect to compression strength at 28 days and for the absorption of water. A lab equivalent time of vibro-compression to industrial machines can be found and this time becomes greater when using recycled aggregates. Moreover, with the same consumption of cement concrete with recycled aggregates achieved mechanical strength within the standard deviation of concretes produced with natural aggregates used by precast industries.

Dessa forma, o objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a resistência mecânica, permeabilidade, absorção e carbonatação natural de concretos submetidos a diferentes condições de cura. Os procedimentos de cura adotados são normalmente utilizadds em canteiros de obra e na produção de estruturas pré-moldadas de concreto: cura imersa até a idade de 7 dias, cura ambiente e cura térmica. A cura térmica foi realizada na temperatura de 60°C. Foram empregados concretos produzidos com cimento Portland de Alta Resistência Inicial (CP V ARI) e cimento Portland de Alto Forno (CP III) sem e com sílica ativa (em substituição ao cimento na proporção de 10% em massa) para cada um dos diferentes tipos de cura utilizados. Os resultados evidenciaram que o tipo de cura afeta o desempenho do concreto. A mudança do tipo de cura aplicada proporcionou variações nas propriedades mecânicas e na durabilidade dos concretos, principalmente no que diz respeito à sua estrutura porosa. Assim, um regime de cura adequado é essencial para garantir a resistência mecânica e a durabilidade dos concretos. A utilização de sílica ativa em substituição ao cimento melhorou o desempenho dos concretos, tanto para a resistência mecânica quanto para a durabilidade, independente do tipo de cura empregado / Abstract: The durability of concrete structures depends on porous structure and its impermeability. The entrance of water and deleterious agents begin the damage processes and reduce the life of the concretestructure. ln that way, the aim of this work was to evaluate the mechanical resistance, permeability, absorption and natural carbonation of concretes submitted to different curing procedures. The curing procedures adopted were usually used in civil construction and in the production of precast structures: moist curing until the age 6f 7 days, curing in air, and steam curing. The maximum temperature of steam curing was 60°C. All concretes were produced with High Early Strength Portland cement (CP V ARl) and Blastfurnace Portland cement (CP TIl) without and with silica fume (10% of replacement, by mass, of Portland cement) for each one of the different curing procedure used. The results showed that the curing procedure affects the concrete performance, providing variations in their mechanical properties and in their durability, mainly in porous structure. Therefore, the curing process used is essential to guarantee the mechanical resistance and the durability of the concretes. The use of silica fume improved the performance of the concretes, as for the mechanical resistance as for its durability, independent of the curing procedure used. / Mestrado / Edificações / Mestre em Engenharia Civil

La réduction de la consommation énergétique dans le secteur de bâtiments présente aujourd’hui une priorité primordiale dans les politiques des pays industrialisés. En France, le secteur du bâtiment consomme environ 43 % de l’énergie finale et contribue pour près d’un quart aux émissions nationales de gaz à effet de serre [ADEME]. Il se positionne comme un acteur clé pour parvenir à résoudre les inquiétants défis environnementaux auxquels nous devons faire face. Face à ces véritables défis, l’augmentation des niveaux d’exigence des réglementations thermiques s’est poursuivie et intensifiée pendant les 40 dernières années, jusqu’à la naissance de la réglementation thermique 2012, qui a permis de construire des bâtiments basse consommation (BBC) qui équivaut à 50 kWh/m².an. Cette nouvelle réglementation plus exigeante constitue une incitation forte à l'innovation des matériaux, produits et systèmes d'enveloppe. Dans ces conditions, l’amélioration des performances hygrothermiques des matériaux de construction aura des retombées économiques et environnementales conséquentes. C’est dans ce contexte que ce travail a été mené. Il vise à étudier et à améliorer les performances des produits de l’entreprise Briqueteries du Nord (BdN). Il est réparti sur deux axes principaux : le premier consiste à l’étude de l’inertie thermique et du pouvoir hygroscopique des briques en terre crue. Le second axe vise à élaborer des solutions possibles concernant l’amélioration de la résistance thermique des briques en terre cuite. Ce travail de recherche a été réalisé au laboratoire de l’Ecole Centrale de Lille avec une étroite collaboration avec l’université d’Artois et l’entreprise (BdN) / Nowadays, the reduction of energy consumption in buildings industry represents a major issue in industrialized countries’ policies. In France, the building sector consumes about 43% of final energy and accounts for nearly a quarter of the national emissions of greenhouse gas emissions [ADEME]. It is considered as a key factor to overcome the environmental challenges we have to face.In front of these significant challenges, the thermal regulations requirements were seriously intensified during the last 40 years until the notification of the thermal regulation 2012. This latter enable the construction of low energy buildings (BBC) whose consumption is equivalent to 50 kWh/m² per year on average. This new regulation provides a strong incentive for innovation of materials, products and envelope systems. Under these conditions, improving hygrothermal performance of building materials will allow a substantial economic and environmental benefits. This work was conducted in this context. It aims to study and improve the performance of the company Briqueteries du Nord (BdN) products. It is divided in two main axis: the first consists on studying the thermal inertia and hygroscopic capacity of unfired clay bricks. However, the second axis aims to develop possible solutions for improving the thermal resistance of fired clay bricks. This research was conducted in the laboratory of the Ecole Centrale de Lille with close collaboration with the University of Artois and the BdN company

La fissuration d’éléments minces en béton dès le jeune âge correspond à une réalité observée sur des ouvrages en construction. Cette fissuration concerne des bétons courants de bâtiments, pour lesquels les matériaux de qualité optimale ne sont pas toujours disponibles, en particulier au niveau des granulats. Le but de cette thèse est de définir une approche expérimentale d’étude de ces phénomènes et de proposer des interprétations pour les sensibilités relatives à la fissuration en fonction de la nature des granulats et de leurs taux de saturation initiaux. La sensibilité des moyens de mesures existants conçus pour des bétons spéciaux (BAP et BHP) a d’abord dû être<p>vérifiée. Un nouveau dispositif expérimental a été développé dans le but de mieux décrire l’évolution de la résistance et de la capacité de<p>déformation en traction du béton jeune. Les indicateurs globaux (macroscopiques) apparaissent plus sensibles que les indicateurs de la microstructure pour rendre compte des différences de comportement observées. L’évolution du module élastique, du retrait plastique et endogène corrélées à l’évolution de la capacité de déformation et de la résistance en traction permettent de mieux caractériser le risque<p>potentiel de fissuration par retrait empêché. La fin de prise correspond à une phase critique. L’influence de la saturation des granulats est<p>indirecte, et résulte des variations du rapport Eau d’ajout/Ciment, à rapport Eau efficace/Ciment constant. La nature des granulats intervient au niveau des évolutions relatives de la résistance en traction et du module élastique. La méthodologie peut être appliquée à l’étude d’autres types de bétons et d’autres paramètres de formulation. / Doctorat en Sciences de l'ingénieur / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished

Neste trabalho avaliou-se o reaproveitamento de resíduo de borracha de pneus, proveniente do processo de recauchutagem, em substituição parcial do agregado miúdo natural, para a produção de pisos táteis intertravados de concreto. O piso tátil de concreto é uma peça utilizada na pavimentação, que permite a percepção do ambiente ou rotas acessíveis, proporcionando mais segurança e autonomia para as pessoas com deficiência visual. A substituição foi feita em relação à massa da areia nas proporções de 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% e 50%. As seguintes propriedades do concreto foram investigadas: consistência no estado fresco, resistência à compressão, resistência à tração na flexão, absorção de água, índice de vazios, massa específica do concreto endurecido, resistência à abrasão, resistência ao impacto e análise de microestrutura. Embora a grande limitação do uso da borracha de pneus como agregado no concreto seja a redução das resistências mecânicas, os traços com até 50% de substituição atingiram ótimos valores de resistência à compressão e resistência à tração na flexão e apresentaram melhores resultados de resistência à abrasão. A utilização do resíduo de borracha de pneus, em substituição parcial da areia natural no concreto para a produção de piso tátil, além de contribuir com a sustentabilidade na construção civil, por meio da economia de extração de matérias-primas e redução do descarte e acúmulo inadequado de pneus inservíveis, proporcionou melhorias a algumas propriedades importantes para a eficiência e qualidade do piso tátil de concreto / Abstract: The reuse of waste in construction has been a viable alternative to reduce the consumption of natural materials and the improper disposal of waste on the environment. In this work recycled tire rubber (crumb rubber) was used as aggregate in concrete to produce tactile paving block. The concrete tactile paving block allows perception of the place or accessible routes, providing more security and independence for people with visual disabilities. The crumb rubber was used to replace sand by mass at the level of 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%. The concrete characterization was performed by testing its consistency, compressive strength, flexural strength, water absorption, porosity, density, abrasion resistance, impact resistance and microstructure analysis. Although the major limitation using the crumb rubber as aggregate in the concrete is to reduce the mechanical strength, the mixtures with up to 50% of substitution reached optimal values ??of compressive strength and flexural strength and showed a better abrasion resistance. The use of crumb rubber in partial replacement of natural sand in concrete to produce tactile paving block, proved to be a viable alternative. Besides contributing to construction sustainability, minimizing the extraction of raw materials, and reducing improper disposal and accumulation of scrap tires, provided improvements to some important properties that assure the efficiency and quality of the concrete tactile paving block / Mestrado / Tecnologia e Inovação / Mestra em Tecnologia

The study views the specific case of Kahal Zur Israel (first synagogue of the Americas), and what exactly motivated the restoration of this monument. Some questions considered were: which was the historical context of the time? What was the history of the monument in itself? Which were the intervention criteria adopted, based on the newest theories, while at the same time preserving some of the present recommendations of the heritage letters? The study also described some of the archaeological discoveries that were carried out with the objective of gathering information to best execute the restoration project. The intervention tried to adapt the present necessities of the locale, preserve its historical value, and promote its financial self-sustainability. The procedure included considerations done on other monuments where modern materials were used so that contemporary uses could be adapted (commerce, tourism, services, communications and environmental comfort). At the same time the preservation of the cultural values of the historical center was observed. Moreover, the procedures show and differentiate the modern materials from the old, avoiding a false representation of the historical and artistic value of the locale. A good example of this at Kahal Zur Israel, is the complementary annexed bloc, situated in the depths of the synagogue. In general, modern building materials give a new sense of intervention to the monuments. / Este trabalho procura mostrar novos conceitos em intervenções e materiais de construção nas restaurações de monumentos históricos. Caso especial da Kahal Zur Israel (primeira sinagoga das Américas), o que motivou a restauração deste monumento. Qual era o contexto histórico da época, o histórico do monumento em si mesmo, quais foram os critérios de intervenção adotados, baseados nas práticas restaurativas dos novos teóricos e guardando algumas das recomendações das cartas patrimoniais existentes. Explanar sobre as descobertas arqueológicas feitas, com o objetivo de conseguir informações, para execução de um projeto de intervenção correto e adaptado às necessidades de uso atual, salvaguardando o bem patrimonial, bem como promover a auto-sustentabilidade do empreendimento, adquirir suporte financeiro para a sua sobrevivência e conservação. O procedimento levou em conta outros monumentos, onde foi observado o emprego de materiais modernos, utilizados com a finalidade de adaptar os monumentos para usos contemporâneos onde o comércio, o turismo, os serviços, as comunicações e o conforto ambiental são imperativos, isto sem perder os seus valores culturais no sítio histórico. Também descreve e destaca os materiais modernos dos antigos, não criando falso histórico nem falso artístico. Exemplo bem dado pelo novo bloco anexo complementar, situado ao fundo da Sinagoga. Em geral, os materiais de construções modernos, dão um novo sentido de intervenção aos monumentos.

SCA Obbola är ett pappersbruk som satsar på framtiden och håller på att utöka sin produktion. Projektet kallas Expansion Obbola och fabriken planerar öka kapaciteten från 450 000 ton till 725 000 ton. Peab är utförandeentreprenad för projektet, arbetet startade år 2018 och förväntas vara färdigt till år 2023. I samarbete med Peab har ett examensarbete utförts på projektet Expansion Obbola för att ta reda på hur arbetet med materialspill ser ut i projektet i dagsläget och om möjligheten finns att minska mängden materialspill. Syftet med arbetet är att få en tydligare bild över materialspillet på projektet Expansion Obbola, för att vidare möjliggöra och utöka Peab:s arbete med materialspill på ett effektivt, ekonomiskt och miljövänligt sätt. Arbetet har även som syfte att bidra till Peab:s framtida arbete med materialspill. Vid produktionen av en ny byggnad uppskattas 30-40% av den totala kostnaden bestå av materialkostnader, vilket medför att om mängden materialspill kan begränsas kan det bidra till ett mer hållbart, ekonomiskt och miljövänligt arbete. Arbetet resulterade i att situationen på projektet Expansion Obbola består av svåra förutsättningar och att detta försvårar möjligheten till minskandet av materialspill betydligt. Tidspress, brist på ytor och begränsat med riktlinjer till hur man bör hantera materialspill är de främsta svårigheterna som projektet besitter. Efter genomförande av detta arbete anses det ändå finnas gott om utvecklingsområden för projektet gällande materialspill trots svårigheterna och några av de presenterade förslagen på hur man kan arbeta med att få en minskad mängd materialspill är följande: Ändra dag och tiden för revidering av ritningar, öka samarbetet mellan arbetsledare, byta virket vid formsättning till en lägre kvalité för att bespara på miljön samt utöka samarbetet med projektörerna. Projektet Expansion Obbola anses därav trots svåra förutsättningar, besitta goda möjligheter att förbättra sitt arbete med materialspill och potentiellt kunna minska mängden material som slängs i onödan. / SCA Obbola is a papermill that is investing in the future and is expanding its production. The project is called Expansion Obbola and they plan to increase their factory's capacity from 450,000 tonnes kraftliner to 725,000 tonnes. Peab is the contractor for the project, it started in 2018 and is expected to be completed by the year 2023. In collaboration with Peab, a report has been carried out on the Expansion Obbola project to find out how they work to minimize material waste. The report will also look into the current way of dealing with material waste and if the opportunity exists to reduce the amount of material waste even more. The purpose of the report is to get a clearer picture of the material waste on the project Expansion Obbola, to further enable and expand Peab's work with material waste in an efficient, economical and environmentally friendly way. The report also aims to contribute to Peab's future work with material waste in a positive way. During the production of a new building, it is estimated that 30-40% of total cost consists of material costs, which means that if the amount of material waste can be limited, it can contribute to a more sustainable, economical and environmentally friendly way of building. This report resulted in that the situation in project Expansion Obbola is consisting of some difficulties and that it significantly complicates the possibility of reducing the material waste. Pressured time schedule, lack of space and limited guidelines on how to handle material waste are the main difficulties that the project poses but after the completion of this report, it is still considered that there are plenty of development areas for the project regarding material waste. Some of the presented proposals on how to work to reduce the amount of material waste are: Changing the day and time for revision of drawings, increase the cooperation between supervisors, change the wood for casting to a lower quality to spare the environment and expand the collaboration with the designers. The Expansion Obbola project is therefore considered, despite difficult conditions, to have good opportunities to improve its work with material waste and potentially be able to reduce the amount of material that is thrown away unnecessarily.

The theme of the diploma thesis is the study of physical properties of various building materials in buildings in low-energy construction. The work is mainly focused on the influence of the thermal accumulation properties of building materials used in buildings in order to achieve low energy consumption for heating. The thesis compares the energy characteristics of five different constructional material variants of the house.

This Diploma Thesis is focused on initial and operating costs. At first we calculated price for all building and for its other parts, which was calculated by program used for budgeting. After that we calculated partial costs which were done only for specific parts of the construction. These parts were changed and due to these changes we were finding out differences in heat losses and initial costs. Than for individual rooms we were defining heat losses. In this rooms, radiators were designed to cover its heat losses. By summarization of all heat gains we find out boiler´s power and this boiler was used in our building. After that we calculated initial costs for heating system includes radiators and boiler. In the end we compared both kinds of heating systems due to one year operating costs. Results were used for defining final heating system which is the most economic efficiential.

The diploma thesis is focused on the issue of measuring the moisture content in building materials using indirect methods that allow its long-term measurement. The theoretical part of the thesis provides an overview of the forms of moisture in porous building materials and provide an overview of the principles of measuring moisture content. In the experimental part of the thesis, the aim is to verify the available methods for long-term monitoring of moisture in building materials built into building structures. Proven methods of measuring humidity include resistance, capacitive and microwave methods and their comparison with the results of gravimetric measurements. At the end of the work is an evaluation of knowledge and recommendations for further research in this area.
