COMPÓSITO CIMENTÍCIO COM GRÃOS DE POLIPROPILENO:

RESISTÊNCIA À COMPRESSÃO AXIAL E À FLEXÃO

Abstract

The objective is to analyze the resistance to axial compression and bending of a cementitious-polymeric composite based on Portland cement type CPV-ARI having as aggregates the sand and recycled grains agglutinated polypropylene (GRAPP) as a substitute for the coarse aggregates. The results showed axial compressive strength of 31.96 MPa and tensile strength in the bending of 5.59 MPa with 30% sand substitution and 100% of the coarse aggregate rocky by GRAPP in the P6 type mixture, results that allow indicating its application as a material for civil construction and contributing to the reduction of environmental impacts.
