Development of Interlocking Concrete Blocks with Added Sugarcane Residues

Abstract: The use of sugarcane residues in mortar and concrete is believed to contribute to a reduction of costs and environmental problems, such as the reduction of mining of natural aggregates and incorrect disposal of the sugarcane residues. Bagasse fiber has a high water retention rate and thus may be considered as a countermeasure for urban heat islands. Because of these properties, bagasse fiber and bagasse sand were added into the preparation of the interlocking concrete blocks. An investigation of the flexural s… Show more

“…Estos datos de resistencias a la flexión se deben a las redes de fibras, que actúan como puente de transferencia de esfuerzos. La red de fibras refuerza los concretos contra la propagación de grietas, controlando sus aberturas y posiblemente retrasando el agrietamiento/fractura de los concreto (Ribeiro et al, 2020).…”

“…Also, it is necessary to resort to renewable materials [5] to cope with the depletion of raw materials [6]. In this sense, natural fibers are very interesting [7], without forgetting the fact that they allow to have lower construction costs [8].…”
