SILVA, Wanderly Geraldo. Self-compacting concrete with partial replacement of cement by fines smaller than 75 µm of red ceramic tile residue: rheological and physical aspects. Thesis presented to the Institute of Architecture and Urbanism of the University of São Paulo, São Carlos Campus-SP to obtain the title of Doctor of Science. The cement industry is largely responsible for the high environmental impact that its activity produces. Increasingly, such impacts are being reduced, mainly through the use of mineral additions, either in the manufacture of cement or as a partial replacement of cement. Because concrete is one of the most widely used materials in civil construction worldwide, several modifications were required, ranging from its form of production and application, and especially its composition, in order to improve and adapt its characteristics to the new ones. Requirements such as self-compacting concrete. The use of construction and demolition wastes, mainly as aggregates for concrete production, has been widely researched. Thus, this research investigated the partial replacement of cement by red ceramic tile residue for self-compacting concrete production. We sought to produce a finely ground residue with a maximum characteristic size of 75µm for partial cement replacement. The influence of this substitution on the rheological behavior of the concrete and its mechanical properties, as well as the pozzolanic potential of this residue were evaluated. Pozzolanic materials are present in a large portion of these concretes, either for reasons related to the reduction of environmental impacts, economic issues, or even the improvement of their characteristics. In this research it was evidenced that the ceramic residue has pozzolanic activity and can be used in partial replacement of cement in concrete production. Some properties of self-compacting concrete with ceramic residue have been altered, such as loss of mechanical strength, but the benefits that substitution can produce justify the use of waste as a binder component of this concrete, contributing significantly to the sustainable development of the ceramic sector construction.
