Estudio de la absorción capilar y la sorptividad de hormigones con áridos calizos cubanos

Abstract: The objective of this study was to demonstrate the possibility to obtain concretes in Cuba with values of effective porosity below of 10%, using limestone aggregates with high levels of absorption (higher than 1% in many cases), and values of Sorptivity below of 5 x 10-5 m/s 1/2 as is established in the document prepared by the DURAR Latin Working Group, for structures exposed to very aggressive environments. The experimental results showed that the use of the trial method of capillary absorption of Göran Fage… Show more

“…Figure 4 shows the capillary absorption curves of the concrete samples with recycled aggregate treated with either the bioproducts (SP, SG) or water (in the case of control samples). The curves can be divided into two phases, with the first one related to the filling of water through the finer capillary pores, where the action of capillary forces is greater than the gravitational forces [ 68 , 69 ]; and the second phase corresponding to the continuity of the filling through the air pores caused by the diffusion and dissolution of air [ 70 , 71 ]. The results showed that the amount of water absorbed increased with the time of contact with water, reaching a constant mass after 96 h. Both bioproducts decreased the amount of water absorbed, by more than 17% for SP and by almost 8% for SG compared to water-treated specimens.…”

“…Estadísticamente no se encontró diferencia significativa entre las medias de los concretos fabricados con las A/C de 0.40 y 0.50; pero sí entre las medias de estos dos concretos y los de 0.60 y 0.70 (Tabla 10). En la misma figura, para fines comparativos, se muestran valores de la sortividad publicados por López et al (2006), Vera et al (2009), Juárez (2012) y Howland & Martín (2013).…”

“…Respecto al mecanismo de transporte del CO 2 se esperaría que la porosidad efectiva, definida como la porosidad interconectada y conectada con el exterior, sea la que realmente influya en el proceso de carbonatación (Howland & Martín, 2013). Los resultados presentados en la Tabla 6 muestran la notable variabilidad en los porcentajes de porosidad efectiva entre los concretos de las diferentes relaciones A/C; mientras que la porosidad total, presentados en la Tabla 1 son muy cercanos.…”
