Avaliação de piso drenante com a utilização de agregados reciclados

Abstract

We live, today, an increasing ecological awareness in our society. Within he construction industry is no different. Since this way of thinking is essential to it, we see the increasing use of aggregates from construction and demolition, before discarded into the environment. Allied to this, it is seen that the process of urbanization of cities eventually causes an increase in impermeable areas, generating growth runoff. This study aims to develop a typology of autodraining concrete urban paving, called draining floor, a sustainable alternative flooring. This product also intends to incorporate into its composition recyclable material from the waste of construction, developing a product that has concerns about the sustainability of cities and the environment. The floor drainage was also produced with natural aggregates, to see if the flooring made with recycled aggregates behaves similarly. Assays were performed in draining floor boards to check their resistance to compression, bending, impact and permeability. The results showed that the floor produced has good permeability, achieving its main function, and good impact resistance. They also showed, however, low resistance to compression and bending.
