Estudio y simulación del comportamiento del cemento portland tipo i, con adición del 20% de zeolita ecuatoriana mediante el curado al aire.

Abstract

This work is a study about the behavior of the compressive strength in cement pastes, adding 20% of Zeolite in the mixture and it was cured by air. This thesis is developed in two phases, the first comprised is experimenting with its own statistical study of the experimental results and the second are developed a theoretical model and its implementation in a programming language, for making comparison of curves the theoretical model with the curves obtained in the experimental process. At the conclusion of the two stages were made a comparison of the adjustment of the theoretical model with experimental data. Another key part of this study is the comparison between the composite material (cement paste + Zeolita) with cement base Type I and Type IV commercial trade cement.
