Para alcanzar un nivel satisfactorio de seguridad y estabilidad en la construcción de estructuras en suelos con propiedades mecánicas débiles, una de las mejores soluciones puede ser el mejoramiento del suelo. Por otro lado, el reciclaje y la reutilización de materiales de construcción y demolición da como resultado la preservación de los recursos naturales y la reducción de la contaminación ambiental que generan los botaderos informales. Por lo que, en la presente investigación se planteó como objetivo evaluar las propiedades mecánicas del suelo para cimentaciones superficiales incorporando material reciclado de demolición. Para llevar a cabo el desarrollo del presente estudio, se analizó el comportamiento mecánico de un suelo con propiedades arcillosas mejorado con concreto reciclado de demolición CRD mediante una serie de pruebas de compactación, 135 probetas para pru...

Millions of tons of different types of waste are generated each year worldwide and this is expected to increase in the future. Most of this waste is dumped through landfills or incineration, raising major environmental concerns. An alternative for the reuse of these wastes is to incorporate them as partial or total replacements for the components of cellular concrete. In this regard, aerated concrete could provide an excellent means of incorporating these residues in a large volume mainly due to the low strength requirement. Cellular concrete is classified into two types based on its manufacturing method, the air entrainment method and the foaming method. Therefore, this document collects and reviews the use of various types of waste, such as industrial solid waste and agricultural solid waste, as a potential replacement for cement, fine aggregate or foaming agent in aerated concrete. an...
