Experimental evaluation of the potential use of waste recycled concrete fine ag...
Pinto, Hugo; Nepomuceno, Miguel; Bernardo, Luís; Oliveira, Luiz Pereira deThe current concern with sustainability in the construction sector has led to the adoption of processes to minimise the impact on the environment. The use of recycled concrete aggregates in self-compacting concrete (SCC), as an alternative to natural aggregates, seems to be a solution with great potential. However, it is common knowledge that the use of recycled aggregates in the production of SCC instead of na...
Cement-based grouts for masonry consolidation with high content of limestone fi...
Nepomuceno, Miguel C. S.; Bernardo, Luís; Oliveira, Luiz Pereira de; Timóteo, Rúben de OliveiraThis article reports an experimental research on the influence of high-volume mineral additions on the rheological, physical and mechanical properties of cement-based grout for stone masonry structures consolidation. Binary grout mixtures were produced by replacing 50% weight of cement by limestone filler, metakaolin, glass powder and ceramic waste. Grout flow properties, rheological parameters, bleeding water,...
Use of refurbished shipping containers for the construction of housing building...
Bernardo, Luís; Oliveira, Luiz Pereira de; Nepomuceno, Miguel; Andrade, Jorge Miguel AlmeidaConstruction using refurbished shipping containers is a recent building system, with already many successful examples around the world. This system presents a huge potential in the field of sustainable construction provided by the recycling of used containers. This paper aims to contribute to a better knowledge of this construction system in what concerns to the structural project. The general constitution of t...
Propriedades do betão auto-compactável com incorporação de agregados finos reci...
Pinto, Hugo; Oliveira, Luiz Pereira de; Nepomuceno, MiguelEste estudo teve como objectivo analisar o impacto nas propriedades do betão auto-compactável (BAC) resultante da incorporação de agregados finos reciclados em substituição parcial dos agregados finos naturais. O programa experimental realizado envolveu, numa primeira fase, a produção e ensaio de 11 misturas binárias com percentagens sucessivamente crescentes de agregados finos reciclados. Posteriormente, foram...
