Tratamento de umidade ascensional em paredes através de inserção de barreiras químicas por gravidade / Treatment of rising damp in walls through chemical barriers by gravity

Socoloski, Rafaela Falcão January 2015 (has links)
A umidade nas edificações pode ser proveniente de diversas fontes. Entre elas está a umidade ascensional, que provém do solo na ausência ou falha de barreiras. A umidade ascende pelas paredes por capilaridade existente devida a estrutura porosa dos materiais de construção. Sua ação pode prejudicar o desempenho das paredes das edificações, possibilitando a degradação progressiva das paredes. Dessa forma, estas podem deixar de cumprir funções, como por exemplo, de proteção e acabamento. Vários tratamentos têm sido estudados pelo mundo. Entretanto a avaliação dos métodos de reparação das paredes afetadas tem sido um problema de difícil resolução. O objetivo deste trabalho é a avaliação da eficiência do tratamento de paredes com umidade ascensional através do método de corte hídrico por inserção do cristalizante através da ação gravitacional, utilizando os diferentes produtos disponíveis no mercado nacional brasileiro. Apesar de limitada a paredes pouco espessas, essa técnica tem apresentado eficácia, versatilidade de execução e baixa interferência na fachada da parede. Essas características justificam a escolha dessa técnica para servir de objeto de estudo do presente trabalho. Visto que não há ensaio normalizado para avaliar a eficiência dos produtos para tratamento contra umidade ascensional será utilizado como referência um experimento realizado por outros pesquisadores, explanado neste documento. A avaliação da umidade presente no corpo de prova é através da medição da massa e imagens com câmera termográfica. Constatou-se que, no período analisado, não houve a redução total da umidade ascensional, no entanto os cristalizantes conseguiram diminuir consideravelmente (em média mais que 50%) a absorção da água por capilaridade. / Dampness in buildings can be derived from several sources. Among them is the upward moisture, which comes from the soil in absence of barriers. The moisture ascends on the walls due to the existing capillarity of porous building materials. Its action may impair the performance of the walls of buildings, leading to their progressive degradation. Thus, the walls may cease to comply with their functions, such as protecting and finishing. Several treatments have been studied worldwide. However, evaluating the methods of repairing affected walls has been a difficult problem to be solved. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the treatment of walls presenting upward moisture through the method of the crystallizing insertion through gravitational action using different available products within the Brazilian market. In spite of being limited to thin walls, this technique has presented efficacy, versatility of execution and little interference on the treated facade as it has been demonstrated on the studied bibliography. These features justify choosing that technique to be studied in the present work. A reference experiment conducted by other researchers is used, since there is no standard test to evaluate the efficiency of treatment products rising damp against. The evaluation of the moisture present in the specimen is by measuring the mass and images with thermographic camera. It was found that in the period analyzed, there was no reduction of the total moisture upward. However the crystallizing managed to reduce significantly (on average more than 50%) the absorption of water by capillarity.

Experimental investigation of the tolerant wind tunnel for unsteady airfoil motion testing

Kong, Lingzhe January 1991 (has links)
Previously, the concept of the tolerant wind tunnel, developed in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, U. B. C., was tested only for stationary models. In the present study, the concept is investigated for unsteady airfoil motion. The new wind tunnel test section, using the opposite effects of solid and open boundaries, is a new approach to reduce wall blockage effects. Consisting of vertical airfoil slats uniformly spaced on both side walls in the test section, it is designed to produce a nearly free-air test environment for the test model, which leads to negligible or small corrections to the experimental results. The performance of this wind tunnel for unsteady model testing is examined experimentally with a two-dimensional NACA 0015 airfoil in a simple plunging sinusoidal motion. The airfoil is mounted vertically in the center plane of the test section between solid ceiling and floor. An oscillating table is designed to give the airfoil an accurate plunging sinusoidal motion. A full range of open area ratio is tested by varying the number of slats mounted inside the side walls. Pressure distribution along the airfoil surface and displacement of the airfoil are measured as functions of time by a data acquisition system designed for this research. Lift and moment are obtained by integration of the pressure distribution at every time increment. Using a numerical model based on the singularity distribution method, the free air case results for a NACA 0015 airfoil in the same unsteady motion are obtained. Comparison with the linear theory results by Sears¹ are discussed. Comparing with the numerical and the linear theory results, the experimental investigation shows that the new test section produces low-correction data. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Mechanical Engineering, Department of / Graduate

Comparative seismic behavior the retrofit of 60year old hospital between CFRP materials and concrete walls by nonlinear static analysis

Criales, Xiomara, Altamirano, Anilú, Huaco, Guillermo 01 January 2022 (has links)
The Casimiro Ulloa Hospital is a confined masonry structure more than 60 years old that does not satisfy the requirements of the Peruvian seismic code E.030 and it is located at high seismic zone. Therefore, this hospital is susceptible to collapse and becomes an essential deficient structure. Therefore, the present study is based on a comparative analysis between reinforced concrete wall and CFRP sheets through the nonlinear Push Over method in order to obtain which is the best reinforcement in structural capacity. The reinforcement with eight L-shaped concrete walls of 15 cm thick located at the corners of the structure, increased the strength of the hospital by 115% in longitudinal direction (Axis X) and 108% in transversal direction (Axis Y), and also increased the ductility by 3% and 117% in the directions respectively. The other reinforcement was carried out with CFRP sheets and anchors. The sheets were designed with a width of 9 inches and were placed in an X-shape in the masonry load-bearing walls and the anchors were implemented in the corners of the laminate walls in order to ensure adequate load transfer between the sheets and the surface. This reinforcement increased the strength of the structure by 345% in axis X and 150% in axis Y and increased the ductility by 59% in longitudinal direction and 331% in transversal direction.

Experimental and Simplified Analytical Investigation of Full Scale Sandwich Panel Walls

Al-Rubaye, Salam Adil 01 December 2017 (has links)
Concrete sandwich wall panels have been used for decades in the precast concrete construction industry because of their thermal efficiency. To achieve full or partial-composite action in concrete sandwich panel walls, the engineer must obtain a percent composite action from a connector manufacturer, making some engineers uncomfortable. Engineers are dependent upon the recommendations given by the connector manufacturers to establish their designs. This project tested six full scale sandwich panel walls to evaluate the percent composite action of various connectors and compare the results to those provided by the composite connector manufacturers. This project aimed to validate current procedures using these methods, and to develop simpler, more efficient methods for predicting overall strength of this innovative building system. This study concluded that the reported degrees of composite action from each manufacturer are considered conservative in all instances for the connectors tested. Additionally, the intensity and type of connectors are important factors in determining the degree of partial composite action in a panel.
