dc.descriptionPopulation growth and industrial growth have increased the demand for infrastructure and housing, increasing concrete consumption and its environmental impact. This has motivated the search for sustainable alternatives to partially or completely replace raw materials used in concrete. In this context, the objective of this study was to evaluate the use of waste glass (WG) as a partial substitute for natural fine aggregate (NFA) in the production of concrete and to validate its application in a structural construction element. The WG aggregate was obtained from the crushing and grinding of bottles; its fineness and absorption modulus were 3.35 and 0.2%, respectively. The methodology employed consisted of evaluating the physical, mechanical, and thermal properties of concrete mixtures with WG replaced by WG in proportions of up to 40%. In addition, the performance of the concrete was studied at high temperatures (up to 900°C) and blocks were produced. The results obtained demonstrated that WG improves the concrete workability by up to 69%, reduces absorption by 23%, and porosity by 19%. Furthermore, the thermal conductivity and diffusivity properties decreased by up to 19% when using 40% RV. The concrete showed improved performance under direct thermal exposure, with no significant impact on compressive strength for replacements of up to 30%. However, a reduction of up to 20% in flexural strength was observed. Finally, it is concluded that concretes with up to 40% RV can be used in the manufacture of blocks, which can be classified as structural blocks of high category according to the Colombian Technical Standard NTC 4026. This application is considered a viable solution for the recovery of glass waste under a circular economy approach.en-US
dc.descriptionEl aumento de la población y el crecimiento industrial han incrementado la demanda de infraestructura y vivienda, elevando el consumo de concreto y su impacto ambiental. Esto ha motivado la búsqueda de alternativas sostenibles para reemplazar parcial o totalmente las materias primas del concreto. En este contexto, el objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar el uso de residuos de vidrio (RV) como sustituto parcial del agregado fino natural (AFN) en la producción de concreto, y validar su aplicación en un elemento constructivo de carácter estructural. El agregado de RV se obtuvo a partir de trituración y molienda de botellas, su módulo de finura y absorción fueron 3,35 y 0,2 %, respectivamente. La metodología empleada consistió en evaluar las propiedades físicas, mecánicas y térmicas de mezclas de concreto con reemplazo de AFN por RV en proporciones de hasta 40 %. Complementariamente se estudió el desempeño del concreto a altas temperaturas (hasta 900°C) y se produjeron bloques. Los resultados obtenidos demostraron que el RV mejora la trabajabilidad del concreto hasta en un 69 %, reduce la absorción en un 23 % y la porosidad en un 19 %. Además, las propiedades de conductividad y difusividad térmica disminuyeron hasta un 19 % al emplear un 40 % de RV. El concreto mostró un mejor desempeño frente a exposición térmica directa sin afectación significativa en la resistencia a compresión para reemplazos de hasta 30 %. No obstante, se observó una reducción de hasta el 20 % en la resistencia a flexión. Finalmente, se concluye que los concretos con hasta 40 % de RV pueden ser empleados en la fabricación de bloques, los cuales pueden ser clasificados como estructurales de categoría alta acorde con la Norma Técnica Colombiana NTC 4026. Esta aplicación es considerada como una solución viable para la valorización de residuos de vidrio bajo un enfoque de economía circular.es-ES
