The study presents an experiment on the use of rice husk ash (R.H.A) for the production of self-compacting mortars. For this purpose, CPZ II 32 cement, natural sand, industrialized rice hull ash, electrostatic and steric ...

The technically controlled use of industrial residues in replacement of natural resources for the production of new products with comparable quality presents a great economic and sustainable contribution. In this sense, ...

With the increasing infrastructure and the need for eco-sustainable alternatives, the concrete industry has motivated to look for supplementary cementitious materials especially those generated from waste. The advantages ...

The self-levelling mortar, also called self-compacting mortar, is an alternative that is very practical for the execution of subfloors, as the consolidation procedure, whether by vibration or manual compaction, is unnecessary. ...

The concrete self-compacting (CAA) was one of the greatest discoveries in concrete technology in recent decades. To be considered self-compacting, three properties must be achieved simultaneously: fluidity, cohesion and ...

The self compacting concrete has proved an advantage compared to conventional concrete, taking into account that can demonstrate a reduction in the overall costs of the work. In its composition, has the same materials ...

The article presents a study of design parameters for the fresh self-compacting soil-cement so that it can be framed under the action of its own weight in the production of prefabricated elements. In the experimental work, ...
