The Brazilian standard NBR 14081-1 (ABNT, 2012), establishes parameters for the open time test, tensile bond strength and slip resistance for adhesive mortars. However, the standards for wall and floor tiling (NBR 13755 and NBR 13754) establish 2h30min as the limit time for the adhesive mortar application. Thus, to avoid detachment of the ceramic tiles through time, an analysis of the rheological behavior of the adhesive mortars is necessary. This research evaluates the rheology of adhesive mortars types AC-I, AC-II and AC-III by viscosity parameters in the times of 30, 180 to 300 minutes, which directly influences the slip resistance and bond strength of the ceramic tiles. In some cases, the test method was able to determine the time of consolidation of adhesive mortars, indicating difference in viscosity in the course of time. Most mortars showed a tendency at the times from 30 to 180 minutes, but beyond that, at 300 minutes their performance characteristics changed. This may cause problems in the settlement stages of ceramic tiles and later in its performance and durability. / A norma NBR 14081-1 (ABNT, 2012), estabelece parâmetros para os ensaios de tempo em aberto, resistência de aderência e deslizamento das argamassas colantes. Porém, as normas de procedimento de execução de revestimento de pisos e paredes com placas cerâmicas (NBR 13755 e NBR 13754) estabelecem 2 h e 30 min como tempo limite de utilização da argamassa colante. Com isso, para evitar os problemas de descolamento do revestimento cerâmico ao longo do tempo, faz-se necessário uma análise do comportamento reológico das argamassas colantes. A pesquisa apresenta o emprego de métodos para avaliação reológica de argamassas colantes dos tipos AC-I, AC-II e AC-III, por parâmetros de viscosidade nos tempos de 30, 180 e 300 minutos, a qual influencia diretamente na segurança ao escorregamento e na insuficiência da resistência de aderência das placas cerâmicas. Para alguns casos, a metodologia de ensaio conseguiu determinar o tempo de consolidação das argamassas colantes, indicando diferença de viscosidade com o passar do tempo. Na maioria das argamassas foi observado que as mesmas apresentam uma tendência nos tempos de 30 até 180 minutos, mas a partir disso, aos 300 minutos, suas características de comportamento são alteradas. Isso poderá causar dificuldades nas etapas de assentamento das placas cerâmicas e, posteriormente, problemas no seu desempenho e durabilidade.

En stark motivering till omställning från icke-förnybar till förnybar energi är ökningen av elförbrukning i världen, med målet att minska klimatpåverkan. Denna elförbrukning förväntas stiga från dagens 140 TWh till 190 TWh år 2045 i Sverige. I och med detta etableras nu konceptet Co-Living på den svenska bostadsmarknaden vilket innebär att människor delar på hemmet. I denna studie undersöktes en testbädd på KTH Live-In Lab där olika bostadskonfigurationer har granskats, där den första konfigurationen var singelboenden och den sista är Co-Living. Syftet med studien var att undersöka de boendes beteendeförändringar med avseende på resursförbrukning i hemmet och undersöka om det gick att se en skillnad mellan konfigurationerna. Resurserna som undersöktes var el och vatten. Studien utfördes genom att undersöka data för el- och varmvattenförbrukning samt aktiveringar och användningstid för dusch och tvättställ. Mätperioderna var på tre månader och innefattade fyra boenden i varje konfiguration. Resultatet visar en ökning i Co-Living, av elförbrukning per person på cirka 12,5% under 2021. Vattenförbrukningen per person visade en ökning på ca 56%. Det gick även att se att antalet aktiveringar, per person, för dusch och tvättställ steg med 41%. Sist i resultatet steg användningstiden, per person, för dusch och tvättställ med 132%. Slutsatsen av studien visar en märkbar ökning av resursförbrukning hos boenden i det studerade Co-Living jämfört med singelboenden. Men det finns en osäkerhet om denna förändring var på grund av Co-Living då exempelvis Covid-19 har visat sig kunna ha stor påverkan på resultatet. / One of the strong reasons for converting to renewable energy sources is the increasing amount of resource usage, with the goal to reduce the climate impact of it. The electricity usage is expected to rise from today’s 140 TWh to 190 TWh until year 2045 in Sweden. With this, the concept of Co-Living is now being established on the housing market. The concept is based on people sharing an accommodation. In this study, obtained data from a testbed called Live-In Lab was investigated. The data is obtained from different building configurations of accommodations, where the first one is single households and the last one is Co-Living. The purpose of this study was to examine the resident’s behavioral changes that affected the resource usage, to see if there were differences between the different configurations. The examined resources were electricity and water. The study was conducted by examining data for electricity and water usage, also usage time and activations for shower and basin. Data was collected for periods of three months and there were four tenants in each configuration. The results show that the usage, per person, of electricity increased by 12,5%, and water by 56% in 2021. Noticeable was also that the number of activations, per person, for shower and basin increased by 41%. Lastly the usage time for shower and basin increased by 132% per person. The conclusion for this study is that there is a noticeable increase of resource usage in the investigated Co-Living, comparing with single households. But there is a great uncertainty regarding Co-Living being the main reason for this difference, as Covid-19, for example, also has had a strong impact on resource usage.
