Desenvolvimento de argamassa para restauração utilizando resíduo do polimento do porcelanato

The coatings mortars are essential elements of building structures because they execute an important role in protecting walls and are particularly exposed to aggressive action responsible for its degradation over time. The importance of wall coverings has been the subject of discussion and analysis in the conservation and rehabilitation of old buildings. Are sometimes removed and replaced with inappropriate solutions of constructive point of view or architecture. The most commonly used coatings on walls of old buildings is based on traditional hydraulic lime mortars. The present study aims at the formulation of new lime- based mortars and aerial fine aggregate, in order to contribute to a better field of conservation and restoration mortar coating of old buildings. Residue was used for polishing porcelain as fine aggregate, replacing the aggregate (sand), in percentages 05-30% by mass. We conducted a thorough evaluation of the mortar properties in fresh and hardened state by comparing the performance of the same with a reference mortar. The residue used was characterized as the density, bulk density, and particle size laser, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and X-ray fluorescence. Formulations were produced 7, 6 with residue and one commonly used formulation, which served as a reference. In the formulations of lime mortars air (hydrated lime powder CH-I) has been adopted a stroke volume (1:3) with constant binder, was varied and the water / binder and aggregate and waste. For evaluation of mortars fresh, proceeded to consistency analysis, specific gravity, water retention and air content embedded. In the hardened state assays were performed in specific gravity, water retention, modulus of elasticity, tensile strength in bending, compressive strength, water absorption by capillary action, adhesion, tensile strength, resistance to shrinkage and salts by of crystallization trials with resources chloride solution, nitrate and sulfate all sodium in prismatic at 90 days of age, in addition to the micro structural analysis of mortars. Based on the results we can see that the mortar formulated with 10% content of waste and the reference free retraction feature more stable closer to neutrality. The composition of 10% was obtained better performance against the action of the salt crystallization. The mortar with 15% residue obtained better density, lower air content embedded and high capacity for water retention developing good workability. The replacement of 20% of waste generates a satisfactory utilization of resistance to compression, flexion and traction grip the base. And, finally, it can be seen that the mortar with 10, 15 and 20% residual show, in principle, good suitability as coatings, thus enabling a final result consistent with durability, workability and aesthetics developing therefore a material with better performance to repair or replace existing mortars in old buildings

Desempenho e efeitos agudos da espirometria de incentivo volume-orientada sobre os volumes pulmonares em pacientes após AVC e sujeitos saudáveis

O Acidente Vascular Cerebral (AVC) é uma síndrome clínica caracterizada por uma perturbação focal da função cerebral. Geralmente ocasiona quadro de disfunção motora acompanhada de prejuízo da função respiratória. Tendo em vista tal quadro e suas possíveis repercussões, a fisioterapia respiratória tem sido amplamente requisitada com o intuito reverter ou minimizar as complicações. Dentre os recursos utilizados para este fim, os espirômetros de incentivo são utilizados com o objetivo de restaurar os volumes pulmonares, modificando o padrão respiratório e de ventilação pulmonar, prevenindo a incidência das complicações pulmonares. O objetivo do presente estudo foi comparar o desempenho na realização da espirometria de incentivo volume-orientada (EI) e seus efeitos agudos sobre os volumes pulmonares em pacientes após AVC e sujeitos saudáveis. Foram selecionados 40 voluntários, de ambos os gêneros, divididos em grupo experimental (GE), composto por 20 pacientes após AVC e grupo controle (GC) composto por 20 sujeitos saudáveis, pareados quanto à idade, gênero e Índice de Massa Corpórea (IMC). A coleta dos dados foi realizada em duas etapas: (1) Avaliação cognitiva e neurofuncional (Mini Exame do Estado Mental, National Institute Stroke Scale, Medida de Independência Funcional, teste de desempenho da aprendizagem) (2) Avaliação Respiratória (espirometria, manovacuometria e cinemática tóraco-abdominal, através da Pletismografia Opto-eletrônica). A análise estatística foi realizada através do software Graphpad Prism 4.0, em que foram utilizados os testes t Student e ANOVA two-way para comparação intergrupos e adotado nível de significância de 5%. Os resultados mostraram que os pacientes apresentam desempenho inferior na aprendizagem da espirometria de incentivo, com uma média de erros maior 2,95 ± 1,39, quando comparados aos sujeitos saudáveis, 1,15 ± 0,98. Em relação à prática observacional utilizada não foi encontrada diferença entre a aprendizagem através do vídeo ou do terapeuta. Em relação aos efeitos agudos da espirometria de incentivo volume-orientada, os pacientes após AVC apresentaram valores de volume corrente 24,7%, 18% e 14,7% inferiores quando comparados aos sujeitos saudáveis nos momentos pré-EI, EI e pós-EI, porém a espirometria de incentivo induziu incrementos de volume similares em ambos os grupos estudados, com 75, 3% para os pacientes e 73,3% para os sujeitos saudáveis. A espirometria de incentivo promove ganhos significativos no volume corrente da parede torácica, tanto em pacientes acometidos por AVC como em sujeitos saudáveis, no entanto o desempenho da aprendizagem é inferior para os pacientes, para ambas as práticas com vídeo ou terapeuta
