Durabilidade, rigidez e análise do ciclo de vida de um solo dispersivo estabilizado com cal

Villalba, Nestor Masamune Kanazawa January 2015 (has links)
A capacidade de manter a estabilidade e integridade durante o tempo de exposição às forças destrutivas do intemperismo é um dos aspectos mais importantes da estabilização de solos em projetos de pavimentos. Esta dissertação apresenta resultados de um estudo laboratorial sobre o comportamento mecânico de um solo dispersivo estabilizado com cal. O solo estudado é um solo sedimentar de sedimentos quaternários pertencente à denominada região ocidental do Paraguai. O solo dispersivo se caracteriza por apresentar teores significativos de sódio e por apresentar erosão hídrica acelerada. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a durabilidade de misturas de Solo-Cal submetidos a ciclos de molhagem e secagem. A resistência à compressão simples e resistência à vácuo saturação também foram examinadas para avaliar o desempenho de misturas de Solo-Cal. Medição da velocidade de pulso de ultra-som foi realizado como teste não destrutivo para monitorizar a rigidez das misturas. Os efeitos do tempo de cura, das características de compactação e do teor de cal, foram avaliados. Finalmente, desde um enfoque ambiental através da ferramenta de avaliação do ciclo de vida (ACV) foram avaliadas todas as misturas em função aos impactos ambientais potenciais gerados na construção de 1 m³ de subbase de Solo-Cal. Verificou-se que a durabilidade, a rigidez e a resistência de solos estabilizados com cal aumentam com o tempo de cura, com a energia de compactação e com o aumento do teor de cal. Além disso, a dispersibilidade intermediaria (ND4) que o solo apresentava em seu estado natural, muda para não dispersivo (ND1) com a adição de 2% de cal. Em conclusão ressalta-se que a mistura SC3-5 apresenta um melhor comportamento mecânico comparável com a mistura SC3-7, mas, com um menor impacto potencial gerado. / The ability to retain stability and integrity during the exposure time to the destructive forces of weathering is one of the most important aspects of soil stabilization in pavements design. This thesis presents the results of a laboratory study of the mechanical behavior of a dispersive soil stabilized with lime. The studied soil is a sedimentary soil of the quaternary sediments belonging to the so called western region of Paraguay. The dispersive soil is characterized by having significant levels of sodium and accelerated erosion. The objective of this study was to evaluate the durability of soil-lime mixtures subjected to wetting and drying cycles. Resistance to simple compression and resistance to vacuum saturation were also examined to assess the performance of soil-lime mixtures. Measurement of the ultrasonic pulse velocity was performed as non-destructive testing for monitoring the stiffness of the blends. The effects of curing time, the compression characteristics and lime content, were evaluated. Finally, all mixtures were evaluated from an environmental viewpoint by the life cycle assessment (LCA). All mixtures were evaluated according to the environmental impact in the construction of 1 m³ of Soil-Lime. It was found that durability, rigidity and resistance of soil stabilized with lime increases with cure time, with the energy of compaction and with increased lime content. Moreover, the dispersibility intermediate (ND4) showed that the soil in its natural state, changes to nondispersive (ND1) with the addition of 2% lime. In conclusion it is emphasized that the SC3-5 mixture has a better mechanical behavior comparable to SC3-7 mix, but with less potential impact generated.

Estudo de campo e laboratório do comportamento mecânico de um solo sulfatado estabilizado com cal / Field and Laboratory Study of the Mechanical Behavior of Lime Stabilized Sulfate Soils

Marín, Eduardo José Bittar January 2017 (has links)
Solos que contem sulfatos apresentam complicações no seu comportamento quando são tratados com estabilizadores à base de cálcio como a cal. Quando um solo que contem sulfatos reage com cal, formam-se minerais expansivos como a etringita e a taumasita que são responsáveis pela deterioração e falha de vários projetos de solos estabilizados. Tem-se bem demostrado sob ensaios de laboratório que a relação vazios/(agente cimentante) é um parâmetro adequado para a avaliação e previsão de comportamentos mecânicos, como a resistência à compressão simples de vários tipos de solos cimentados artificialmente. Este trabalho pretende encontrar se as previsões da relação vazios/cal na resistência à compressão simples são efetivas para dimensionar misturas de solos sulfatados estabilizados com cal construídas em campo. Para lograr esse objetivo executou-se um programa experimental de ensaios de laboratório em conjunto com a construção de trechos experimentais de solo-cal. Os ensaios de laboratório ajudaram comprender o comportamento de solos sulfatados estabilizados com cal, e demostraram que a relação vazios/cal controla a resistência à compressão simples desses solos estabilizados evidenciando uma relação coerente com os resultados das resistências de campo, encontrando-se que as resistências de campo e laboratório são controladas por essa relação e que podem ser previstas pela mesma Ensaios de Difração de Raios X (DRX) e Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura (MEV) identificaram minerais expansivos (etringita) nas amostras estabilizadas com cal e cinza-cal. Finalmente em laboratório foram testadas algumas soluções recomendadas na literatura para melhorar a estabilização de solos sulfatados mediante um projeto experimental demostrando que a estabilização com cinza volante e cal melhoram consideravelmente a resistência, a durabilidade e a estabilidade volumétrica de solos sulfatados enquanto que a técnica do mellowing mostrou melhoras apenas na estabilidade volumétrica do material. / Sulfate rich soils present complications in their behavior when are treated with calcium-based stabilizers such as lime. When a soil containing sulfates reacts with lime, expansive minerals such as ettringite and thaumasite are formed which are responsible for the deterioration and failure of various stabilized soil projects. It has been well demonstrated under laboratory tests that the relationship porosity/cementing agent ratio is an appropriate parameter for the evaluation and prediction of mechanical behavior, such as the unconfined compression strength of various types of artificially cemented soils. This work intends to find out if the predictions of the relation porosity/lime in the unconfined compression strength are effective to design lime stabilized soils mixtures built in field. In order to achieve this objective an experimental program of laboratory tests was carried out together with experimental road sections of lime stabilized soils were built. The laboratory tests helped to understand the behavior of lime stabilized sulfate soils, and demonstrated that the void/lime ratio controls the unconfined compression strength of these stabilized soils and that exist a consistent relationship with the field unconfined compression strength results, finding that both, field and laboratory strengths are controlled and can be predicted by this ratio X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) tests were performed to identify expansive minerals (ettringite) on soils samples stabilized whit lime and fly ash-lime. Finally, some solutions recommended in the literature have been tested in laboratory to improve the stabilization of sulfate rich soils through an experimental design, showing that the fly ash-lime stabilization improve considerably the strength, durability and volumetric stability of the sulfate rich soils whereas that for the mellowing the improve was observed only on the volumetric stability of the material.
