To achieve the purpose, the spaces and their dimensions that the homes of the multi-family units in the municipality of Guadalajara have and the requirements for the study at home were analyzed. The result was that these homes do not provide the possibility for the student to carry out their academic activities, since they do not have spaces for this activity and because the measurements of the homes and their spaces are small, which can only be used for basic activities and fundamental aspects of family members.","PeriodicalId":319041,"journal":{"name":"Revista de Ingeniería Civil","volume":"68 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139275225","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rigid recycled polyurethane foam was crushed to be used as a partial substitute of the fine limestone aggregate in proportions of 15, 20 and 25% in volume, maintaining a cement:sand ratio of 1:3., and its mechanical, physical and thermal properties were evaluated. The mortar of coating with 20% of substitution of recycled polyurethane foam by limestone aggregate, presented a better physical-mechanical and thermal behavior to a laboratory level; therefore, so it was used in real conditions as an exterior coating in a construction prototype elaborated with a wall of blocks and exposed to environmental conditions for a year. The results demonstrated that the modified coating improved its thermal performance by decreasing the interior temperature of the prototype by around 15% compared to the traditional coating, with a difference of 0 to 1.5 °C low, thus maintaining it for most of the year and with relative humidity without significant changes.","PeriodicalId":319041,"journal":{"name":"Revista de Ingeniería Civil","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130575502","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The influence of the NH in the hydration kinetics and hydrated products was determined. The effect of the incorporated amount of NH in the wettability, mass loss by humectation-drying cycles, thermal conductivity, specific heat (Cp) and gypsum thermal performance at 40 °C was determined. Characterization techniques exhibited that the presence of VO2/MWCNT did not modify hydration kinetics and phases development, water drop angle or compressive strength. Nevertheless, gypsum blinders mass loss increased with the presence of the nanocomposite after 6 humectation-drying cycles. According to the thermal properties, it was found that the NH addition increased gypsum blinders thermal conductivity and Cp values. Finally, it was concluded that gypsum with VO2/MWCNT promotes self-thermal regulation properties without affecting its performance. The usage of VO2/MWCNT embedded in a gypsum as a construction material would provide thermal comfort conditions in buildings.","PeriodicalId":319041,"journal":{"name":"Revista de Ingeniería Civil","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115242817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

No crusher, kiln, hydraulic press or vacuum pump were used to produce the panels; water was used to clean the fibers and sodium silicate was used as a mineralizing agent; results were compared with NMX standards for structural mortars and fiber cement slabs together with manufacturing processes from previous research on natural fibers to obtain a methodology that optimizes the process. It is demonstrated that it is feasible to produce fiber cement panels that comply with the minimum regulatory requirements by reducing processes, without damaging the physical-mechanical values of the fiber cement. The best performance results show a MOR of 6.70 MPa and a density of 1560 kg⁄m^3 for a panel with 6% cane bagasse added to the dry mass of cement, a water/cement ratio of 0.95 by volume and sand/cement of 2.5 by mass.

This present study is a critical review of a selection of articles about biochar potential as a material on the construction industry. Biochar is a promising material in order to mitigate GHG emissions when added to cementitious materials, reducing its carbon footprint through a dual effect: CO2 sorption and replacement of cement or aggregates. Literature evidenced that replacement ratios of around 2-8 of cement wt% improved or leveled with conventional cementitious composites. However, some recent studies have shown that the incorporation of biochar up to >10% replacement ratios have the potential to improve the composites. Based on this premise, the present review emphasizes on the durability and long-term properties of biochar cementitious composites by providing up-to-date discussions of the studies on the matter and the future perspectives of the research in order to develop more eco-efficient concretes or mortars.","PeriodicalId":319041,"journal":{"name":"Revista de Ingeniería Civil","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121191108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An automation system design for a didactic canal is presented in this work, which allows to control slope preset by means of a gyroscope and a mobile application.
