Análisis de las propiedades mecánicas en el hormigón de resistencia de 21 MPA y 25 MPA, mediante la adición de material poliamida 6 desechado en los laboratorios de máquinas herramientas de la Universidad Politécnica Salesiana.

Abstract

In CHAPTER I, we talk about the decade of polyamides that are beginning to gain space by replacing traditional metals thanks to good mechanical strength. This material cannot be recycled like PET, due to its composition and characteristics, for this reason it is about finding a way to use the waste generated in the machine tool laboratories of the Salesian Polytechnic University. In CHAPTER II, he mentions that in recent years studies have been carried out on reinforcing concrete with rubber fibers, glass, steel and organic materials, so in this chapter it deals with the previous investigations as well as the composition of the types of materials that are used in the design and characteristics for their subsequent manufacture. In the CHAPTER III of the investigation we will talk about the design of concrete mixtures with Polyamide 6 material in percentages of 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% replacing the coarse aggregate in equal mass, in concrete of 21MPa and 25MPa. The mechanical properties were evaluated, reaching the point of performing destructive compression and traction tests taking into account the corresponding test standards. In CHAPTER IV, compression and traction tests carried out at an age of 28 days, allowed to obtain sufficient results to make a comparison between 0% concrete against reinforced concrete with 5%, 10% and 15%, where with these values it was concluded that the resistance to compression and traction is decreasing considerably while the addition of Polyamide 6 is increasing.
