ABSTRACT Structural materials play an essential role in equipment and constructions, with properties such as strength and stability. Granite and marble are widely used for structural building materials such as cladding, sinks and countertops. It is possible to recycle waste from these rocks in the production of new parts, reducing the environmental impact. In Brazil, there is a high amount of construction and demolition waste, with most of the raw material becoming waste before the product is finished. Studies indicate that the incorporation of ornamental stone waste into cementitious products can significantly reduce environmental impact and improve its sustainability. The present work presents an experimental study for the manufacture of resin granite test specimens with residues from different dosages and resin epoxy levels. Flexural strengths of up to 7, 11, 24 and 28 MPa are achieved for resin contents of 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% respectively. The material has anisotropic characteristics and makes good use of almost all of the size ranges of waste used. Future reverse engineering studies of the resin are also necessary to expand knowledge and further optimize its application. constructions stability cladding countertops parts Brazil finished sustainability levels 7 11 2 5 5% 10 10% 15 20 respectively application 1

Resumo Este trabalho visa avaliar o impacto da cura térmica e do uso de empacotamento de partículas em compósitos cimentícios de ultra alto desempenho (CCUAD), com e sem pó de vidro. Para tanto, foram moldados corpos de prova com 0% e 50% de pó de vidro (substituição volumétrica ao cimento), além de dois traços obtidos através do empacotamento de partículas. As amostras foram submetidas a cura térmica e a cura úmida para comparação dos efeitos. Foram realizados ensaios de resistência à compressão e de absorção de água por capilaridade. Os resultados indicaram que a cura térmica proporciona ganho inicial de resistência, a aplicação do empacotamento de partículas na dosagem das misturas resultou em uma significativa melhoria nas propriedades das amostras e o pó de vidro se mostrou um substituto viável para o cimento.

Abstract This paper discusses the impact of thermal curing and particle packing on ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) that used glass powder as a partial replacement of Portland cement. For this, specimens with 0% and 50% of glass powder (volumetric substitution to cement) were produced, as well as two mixtures obtained by particle packing. The samples were submitted to thermal and standard curing to compare the effects and tested for compression strength and capillary water absorption. The results show that thermal curing improves resistance expressively in the early ages while particle packing applied to the mix design improved significantly the concrete properties, indicating that glass powder is a viable substitute for cement.

Resumen Este trabajo tiene como objetivo evaluar el impacto del curado térmico y el uso de empaquetamiento de partículas en compuestos cementosos de ultra alto desempeño (UHPC), con y sin polvo de vidrio. Para ello, los cuerpos de prueba fueron moldeados con 0% y 50% de polvo de vidrio (reemplazo volumétrico al cemento), además de dos mezclas obtenidas a través del empaquetamiento de partículas. Las muestras fueron sometidas a curado térmico y curado húmedo para comparar los efectos. Se realizaron pruebas de resistencia a la compresión y absorción por capilaridad. Los resultados indicaron que el curado térmico proporciona ganancia de la resistencia inicial, la aplicación del empaquetamiento de partículas en las dosis de mezcla resultó en una mejora significativa en las propiedades de las muestras y el polvo de vidrio demostró ser un sustituto viable del cemento.

Resumo Novos desenvolvimentos na tecnologia do concreto, como concretos de alto e ultra-alto desempenho (CAD e UHPC) são notórios não apenas pela elevada resistência mecânica e durabilidade, como também pelo alto consumo de cimento Portland. Materiais cimentícios suplementares têm sido utilizados como substitutos parciais do cimento Portland visando minimizar o consumo de clínquer, otimizando o uso de aglomerantes, reduzindo as emissões de CO2 e aumentando a durabilidade. O pó de vidro residual pode ser uma alternativa viável devido à sua natureza rica em sílica, ampla disponibilidade e baixo custo. Este trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar a influência da substituição do cimento Portland por pó de vidro residual finamente moído em teores de 10%, 20%, 30% e 50% no comportamento físico e mecânico de compósitos cimentícios de ultra alto desempenho (UHPC). Os resultados indicam que o uso de pó de vidro como substituição de até 50% do cimento Portland não afeta significativamente as propriedades analisadas aos 28 dias.

Abstract Novel developments on concrete technology such as high and ultra-high-performance concrete (HPC and UHPC) are notorious by its high consumption of Portland cement. Supplementary cementitious materials have been used as partial replacement of Portland cement aiming to minimizing clinker content, optimizing the use of binders, reducing CO2 emissions, and increasing durability. Waste glass powder could be an alternative due to its silica-rich nature and wide availability. This work aims to assess the influence Portland cement substitution by finely ground waste glass powder in contents of 10%, 20%, 30% and 50% on physical and mechanical behavior of ultra-high-performance cementitious composites (UHPCC). Results indicates the use of glass powder as substitution up to 50% of Portland cement does not significantly affect the analyzed properties at 28 days.

Abstract The addition of pozzolans has a potentially important role in the cement industry since using waste from other industries has important environmental benefits, including reduced CO2 emissions from cement production. This study evaluates the pozzolanic activity of the glass powder in three different particle sizes (150 µm, 75 µm, and 45 µm, upper limits) and compares the results with those of other added pozzolans and technical standards found in the literature. Pozzolanicity was determined by four methods: Pozzolanic Activity Index (PAI) with lime, Performance Index (PI) with Portland cement, electric conductivity, and modified Chapelle. The results of the Chapelle and electrical conductivity trials indicated the pozzolanic activity of glass powder in all three particle sizes studied. The results of PAI with lime revealed pozzolanic activity of the 45 µm fraction while the performance index with cement showed the pozzolanicity of the 75 µm and 45 µm fractions according to ASTM C 618-05 (2005). It is concluded that the smallest glass fractions provided better reaction rates due to larger contact surfaces and are, therefore, considered pozzolans.
