Abstract

As the natural resources needed for the construction sector arelimited, new practices are being adopted for the managementof waste generated nowadays, including the use of constructionand demolition waste as aggregates for concrete and mortar.Considering the different typologies in construction wastes,ceramics are the second most representative material; thereforeit is important to validate their feasibility as a total orpartial replacement of natural aggregates. This work presentsa study of the properties in fresh state (consistency, density andair content) of mortars containing aggregates obtained fromrecycled ceramics, and their influence on the subsequent propertiesin the hardened state. A statistical analysis of experimentaldata was carried out by establishing regression coefficients,and then a triple-entry graph was obtained, allowing the differentproperties of mortars to be easily linked and simplifyingthe prediction of the relationships they will present since themixture design phase.
