Construction waste and water/cement ratio

The research was carried out in the province of San Martín with the objective of finding the influence of the proportion of construction waste and the water-cement ratio on the resistance to compression and warping in masonry units of 39 x 19 x 14 cm. To this end, 27 blocks were obtained as a representative sample using the probabilistic type for a bifactorial model, after filling out the observation forms that were previously evaluated by experts in the field, the data tabulation was continued. The results of this research constitute a sustainable alternative for the use of materials in the construction of buildings, since it has characteristics such as: environmentally benign, socially acceptable and economically viable.
