Este trabalho teve como objetivo determinar as propriedades de chapas de madeira aglomerada confeccionadas com partículas geradas de maravalhas e flocos de Eucalyptus grandis, E. urophylla e E. cloeziana. Quando necessário, para manter a massa específica das chapas em 0,70 g/cm³ foram adicionadas partículas de Pinus elliottii. Os eucaliptos foram obtidos nos Municípios de Ponte Alta (Região do Vale do Rio Doce) e Três Marias (Região de Cerrado), em Minas Gerais. As densidades básicas das espécies procedentes do Município de Ponte Alta foram iguais a 0,55; 0,61; e 0,70 g/cm³, enquanto aquelas procedentes do Município de Três Marias foram iguais a 0,56; 0,58; e 0,69 g/cm³, respectivamente. A densidade do Pinus elliottii, cultivado no Município de Viçosa, foi de 0,45 g/cm³. As partículas para a confecção das chapas foram obtidas pelo processamento de flocos (0,48 x 20 x 90 mm) e maravalhas, em moinho de martelo, e selecionadas com peneiras manuais. Os coeficientes de esbeltez dessas partículas foram iguais a 19,87 e 4,66, respectivamente. Utilizou-se adesivo de uréia-formaldeído na proporção de 8% em relação à massa seca de madeira. As chapas confeccionadas com partículas processadas de flocos e contendo maior quantidade de madeira de eucalipto apresentaram maior adsorção de água, inchamento e expansão linear. Os maiores valores de dureza Janka e compressão paralela foram observados nas chapas confeccionadas com partículas processadas de maravalhas. Os valores médios de tração perpendicular, módulo de ruptura e módulo de elasticidade foram maiores nas chapas confeccionadas com partículas de flocos processados. As chapas confeccionadas com madeiras da Região de Três Marias apresentaram maiores resistências à compressão paralela, tração perpendicular e módulo de ruptura.

Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar as propriedades de chapas de madeira aglomerada fabricadas com partículas de Eucalyptus urophylla (massa específica = 0,55 g/cm³) e de Schizolobium amazonicum (Paricá) (massa específica = 0,30 g/cm³). Foram confeccionadas chapas com cinco proporções de madeira e dois tipos de partículas (maravalhas e cavacos). As chapas apresentaram dimensões de 60 cm x 60 cm x 1 cm e massa específica média de 0,60 g/cm³. Utilizou-se adesivo à base de uréia-formaldeído, na proporção de 8%. As chapas foram prensadas à temperatura de 170 ºC e 3,2 MPa de pressão, em ciclos de 8 min, e as suas propriedades foram determinadas segundo a norma NBR 14810-3. A massa específica, a dureza Janka e a expansão linear não foram influenciadas pelas variáveis experimentais. De modo geral, o aumento na porcentagem de paricá elevou a resistência à flexão, ao arrancamento de parafuso e à tração perpendicular. O tipo de partícula afetou significativamente apenas a resistência à tração perpendicular e o inchamento em espessura. As chapas produzidas com partículas provenientes de cavacos (coeficiente de esbeltez menor) tiveram maior resistência à tração perpendicular. Contudo, apresentaram valores mais elevados de inchamento em espessura.

Este trabalho teve como objetivo determinar as propriedades de chapas fabricadas com partículas de madeira de paricá (Schyzolobium amazonicum Huber ex. Ducke), às quais foram adicionadas diferentes proporções de fibras de coco (Cocos nucifera L.). As chapas foram fabricadas com 6 ou 8% de adesivo, à base de ureia-formaldeído e tendo como meta uma massa específica de 360 kg/m³. Observou-se que a adição de fibras de coco não afetou a estabilidade dimensional, higroscopicidade e absorção de água, porém aumentou significativamente as demais propriedades. As chapas fabricadas com 8% de adesivo foram mais estáveis e mais resistentes do que aquelas feitas com 6% de adesivo.

O "grits" é um resíduo sólido de características arenosas e coloração acinzentada, gerado pela indústria de polpa kraft durante a etapa de recuperação do licor branco empregado no cozimento dos cavacos de madeira. O objetivo deste trabalho foi estudar o potencial do grits como material de construção, considerando-se a sua empregabilidade na fabricação de tijolos de solo-cimento. Para a determinação da quantidade ideal de resíduo a ser utilizada, foram estudados os traços em volume 1:14:0; 1:10,5:3,5; 1:7:7; 1:3,5:10,5; e 1:0:14 de cimento, solo e grits, respectivamente. Os materiais foram caracterizados por meio de ensaios de análise granulométrica, limite de liquidez e limite de plasticidade, e os resultados foram de acordo com as prescrições normativas. O ensaio prático da caixa também foi usado para verificar os materiais, e os resultados atenderam às recomendações. Uma vez realizado o ensaio de compactação para obter o teor de umidade ótima, os tijolos foram produzidos com 90% desse valor, pois a resistência à compressão é favorecida com o material do ramo seco. No entanto, durante a moldagem não foi possível produzir tijolos com os traços 1:3,5:10,5 e 1:0:14, pois, nesses casos, as misturas de solo-cimento-grits não apresentaram plasticidade suficiente. Os tijolos produzidos com os demais traços foram, então, submetidos a ensaios de resistência à compressão e de absorção. Em relação à resistência à compressão, aos 28 dias todos os traços apresentaram valores médios superiores ao estabelecido pela normalização, que é de 2,0 MPa. Os tijolos fabricados com maior quantidade de grits apresentaram melhor desempenho no que se refere à resistência mecânica. Assim, este estudo não apenas apresenta o benefício ambiental de destinar corretamente o resíduo, como também contribui com novos materiais para a construção civil.

Nas últimas décadas temos assistido a um crescimento da produção de resíduos de construção e demolição. Surge então a necessidade de fazer uma gestão consciente destes resíduos reintroduzindo-os quando possível, no ciclo de vida de novas construções, provocando uma redução quer das zonas de aterro quer da abertura de novas zonas de extração de inertes as quais, provocam um elevado impacto ambiental afetando a biodiversidade existente nessas zonas. Com esta intenção, o presente trabalho centra-se na temática do betão com agregados reciclados e pretende contribuir para o seu conhecimento, analisando as características quer dos agregados reciclados quer do betão com eles confecionado, seguindo normas e diretrizes recomendadas por diferentes especificações um pouco por todo o mundo. Ainda no mesmo contexto o estudo pretende conhecer o destino (eliminação, aterro, valorização, etc.) dado aos RCD procedentes de betão na Região Autónoma da Madeira. A análise da bibliografia existente demonstra perdas nas características destes betões reciclados quando comparados com betões convencionais, isto sem dúvida devido principalmente à quantidade de pasta de cimento aderido presente na composição do agregado reciclado, a qual afeta direta e indiretamente a maioria das propriedades quer do agregado reciclado quer do betão com eles confecionado. Foi recolhida informação que permite caracterizar o sector da construção civil, fazendo o diagnóstico do estado atual da gestão dos resíduos de construção e demolição que é feita pelas empresas de construção sediadas na RAM, mais concretamente a gestão dos resíduos de betão e a reutilização e reciclagem dos mesmos.

Since the early twenty-first century, the construction sector has been the second largest on the rise in the Brazilian industrial sector, with a growth of 1.4% in 2012, and is likely to remain at this level for a long time. However, unlike decades ago, the industry has been seeking in its manufacturing process, sustainable materials, encompassing in their works the concept of sustainability. Thus, the timber sector seeks to satisfy a market increasingly demanding, innovating techniques and utilization being less aggressive to the environment. The purpose of this study was to produce and evaluate the mechanical strength of the composite cement with the addition of wood residues and slag low oven. Therefore, it was made 42 specimen cement-slag-wood, carried out in two steps. Since at the first, it was varied only the slag particle size, and at the second, through the best result of the previous step, it was varied the wood particles granulometry. The mechanical performance of the composite was evaluated by the results obtained in the compression test and the physical test for determining the density of the material. In the first step of the process can be concluded that the best result was achieved with the use of slag particles retained on the 60 mesh sieve. In the second phase of the study concluded that the best results were achieved with wood particles with the large particles, i.e. particles retained on the 10 mesh sieve. Both in the first and in the second step it can be seen that there has been the influence of the particle size of the waste materials. With the obtained results, could be evaluated that the use of waste for the production of cement-slag-wood composite showed lower performance when compared to the results obtained in studies without the use of waste. However, some applications are feasible to be performed with the use of composite wood-cement-slag

The search for a more aware use of available raw materials has led to a need to create more sustainable products. The use of natural fibers to reinforce cement, for instance, has been widely studied in the past decades because of the possibility that they can improve material properties such as thermal resistance and to compression, besides conferring a decrease in their total weight. This present study aimed at to conduct preliminary studies on the thermal resistance of the composite cement - Cellulose Pulp, using waste from the pulp and paper industry. Through experiments, it was found that the composite manufactured using the ratio 30 % Portland cement and 70 % pulp, showed satisfactory results regarding its thermal resistance, so it could be considered as a potential thermal insulation material, for use in constructions

This work was done with the objective of studying some physical and mechanical characteristics of the sugarcane bagasse ash added to a soil-cement mixture, in order to obtain an alternative construction material. The sugarcane bagasse ash pre-treatment included both sieving and grinding, before mixing with soil and cement. Different proportions of cement-ash were tested by determining its standard consistence and its compressive resistance at 7 and 28 days age. The various treatments were subsequently applied to the specimens molded with different soil-cement-ash mixtures which in turns were submitted to compaction, unconfined compression and water absorption laboratory tests. The results showed that it is possible to replace up to 20% of Portland cement by sugarcane bagasse ash without any damage to the mixture's compressive strength.

The main objective of this work is the study of the effect of rice husk addition on the physical and mechanical properties of soil-cement, in order to obtain an alternative construction material. The rice husk preparation consisted of grinding, sieving, and the pre-treatment with lime solution. The physical characteristics of the soil and of the rice husk were determined. Different amounts of soil, cement and rice husk were tested by compaction and unconfined compression. The specimens molded according to the treatments applied to the mixtures were subsequently submitted to compression testing and to tensile splitting cylinder testing at 7 and 28 days of age and to water absorption testing. After determining its physical and mechanical characteristics, the best results were obtained for the soil + 12% (cement + rice husk) mixture. The results showed a promising use as an alternative construction material.

The durability of the cellulose-cement composites is a decisive factor to introduce such material in the market. Polymers have been used in concrete and mortar production to increase its durability. The goal of this work was the physical and mechanical characterization of cellulose-cement composites modified by a polymer and the subsequent durability evaluation. The work also evaluated the dispersion of acrylic polymer in composites made of Pinus caribaea residues. The physical properties observed were water absorption by immersion and bulk density. Rupture modulus and toughness were determined by flexural test. The specimens were obtained from pads, produced by pressing and wet curing. Samples were subjected to accelerated aging tests by repeated wetting and drying cycles and hot-water bath and natural aging. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) allowed verifying the fiber and composite characteristics along the time. For the composite range analyzed, it was observed the polymer improved the mechanical properties of composites besides a significant decreasing in water absorption. The use of polymer improved the performance of vegetable fiber-cement composites when compared to the conventional mortar, due to water absorption decreasing.

The rice husk and its ash are abundant and renewable and can be used to obtain alternative building materials. An increase in the consumption of such waste could help minimize the environmental problems from their improper disposal. This study aimed to evaluate the use of ashes as a cargo mineral (filler). However, the rice husk chemically interferes in the conduct of the based cement mixtures. Thus, different mixes cement-rice husk with and without the addition of ash were evaluated in order to highlight the influence of its components (husk; ash), which could otherwise be excluded or be underestimated. Cylindrical samples (test of simple compression and traction by diametrical compression) and samples extracted from manufactured pressed board (test of bending and parallel compression to the surface), were used to evaluate the behavior of different mixtures of components (rice hush; RHA - rice husk ahs). The results of the mechanical tests showed, in general, there is not a statistical difference between the mixtures, which are associated with the chemical suppressive effect of the rice husk ash. The mixture of rice husk of 10 mm, with an addition of 35% of the rice husk ash, is notable for allowing the highest consumption of rice husk and rice husk ash, to reduce 25% the consumption of cement and to allow the storage (without emissions to the atmosphere), around 1.9 ton of CO2 per ton of cement consumed, thus contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissions, which can stimulate rural constructions under an ecological point of view.

Rice husk, employed as an energy source at milling industries in Brazil generates, after burning, a dark ash. This residue is not yet conveniently disposed, being currently dumped on large areas, causing environmental problems. This research intended to evaluate the applications of residual rice husk ashes (RHA) as a partial replacement of cement for mortar production. Rice husk ash was chemically characterized through X-ray fluorescence, determination of carbon content, X-ray diffraction, and laser granulometric analysis. Mortar specimens were submitted to two different exposure conditions: internal and external environments at a maximum period of five months. Physical-mechanical testing were compressive strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV). Although presenting good mechanical performance, the mortar based on ash (RHA) did not present pozolanicity but it can be employed in cement matrices as inert material (filler).

Losses of horticulture product in Brazil are significant and among the main causes are the use of inappropriate boxes and the absence of a cold chain. A project for boxes is proposed, based on computer simulations, optimization and experimental validation, trying to minimize the amount of wood associated with structural and ergonomic aspects and the effective area of the openings. Three box prototypes were designed and built using straight laths with different configurations and areas of openings (54% and 36%). The cooling efficiency of Tommy Atkins mango (Mangifera Indica L.) was evaluated by determining the cooling time for fruit packed in the wood models and packed in the commercially used cardboard boxes, submitted to cooling in a forced-air system, at a temperature of 6ºC and average relative humidity of 85.4±2.1%. The Finite Element Method was applied, for the dimensioning and structural optimization of the model with the best behavior in relation to cooling. All wooden boxes with fruit underwent vibration testing for two hours (20 Hz). There was no significant difference in average cooling time in the wooden boxes (36.08±1.44 min); however, the difference was significant in comparison to the cardboard boxes (82.63±29.64 min). In the model chosen for structural optimization (36% effective area of openings and two side laths), the reduction in total volume of material was 60% and 83% in the cross section of the columns. There was no indication of mechanical damage in the fruit after undergoing the vibration test. Computer simulations and structural study may be used as a support tool for developing projects for boxes, with geometric, ergonomic and thermal criteria.
