A extração de ardósia gera grandes volumes de resíduo que poderiam ser aplicados em pavimentação. O ensaio dinâmico para determinação do Módulo de Resiliência (MR) fornece dados importantes para a análise estrutural dos pavimentos. Embora haja diversos estudos de MR para aplicações em pavimentos, poucos se referem à análise dos efeitos do aumento percentual de resíduos em misturas. Neste artigo foi possível constatar, por meio de caracterização físico-mecânica e ensaios de MR de misturas com solo argiloso contendo porcentagens (60, 70 e 80% em massa) de resíduos de ardósia (SLT) e agregado de gnaisse (REF), que há comportamento físico similar das misturas SLT e REF. Observou-se que os valores de Índice de Suporte Califórnia (ISC) e MR da mistura SLT aumentaram 16,1% e 40,9%, respectivamente, com a adição do resíduo de ardósia entre as misturas SLT 60/40 e SLT 80/20. Os resultados de MR obtidos estão dentro da faixa relatada nas referências bibliográficas para materiais reciclados e naturais utilizados em pavimentação. Por fim, o software de dimensionamento MeDiNa foi utilizado para comprovar a possibilidade da utilização das misturas SLT em camada de base e sub-base em pavimentação. Desse modo, constata-se a importância de se desenvolver estudos que permitam melhor análise da aplicabilidade de resíduos em substituição aos materiais convencionais na pavimentação.
The use of slate waste can help to reduce the impacts caused to the environment due to the decrease of the appropriate disposal areas and the disordered consumption of raw material. This article presents an analysis of the Resilient Modulus (RM) and the California Bearing Ratio (CBR) of this waste in mixtures with clayey soil. To analyze variations in RM and CBR due to the increase in the slate waste content, tests were carried out on reference mixtures (REF) and mixtures containing slate waste (SLT). The tests were carried out for mixtures of granular material (gneiss for REF and slate waste for SLT) and clay soil, containing different levels of granular materials (50%, 60%, 70%, 80% and 90%) It was observed that the values of Resilient Modulus and California Bearing Ratio of the SLT mixtures increased 62.8% and 127.0% with the addition of the slate waste between the SLT 50/50 and SLT 90/10 mixtures, respectively. This behavior was similar to that presented by the REF mixtures, which increased 125.0% in RM and 60.1% in CBR for the same addition of granular material. The results obtained indicate that the mixtures containing slate waste presented RM and CBR similar to those of conventional materials (such as the REF mixtures) used in layers of sub-base and the base of pavements. Finally, it was concluded that the relationship between RM and CBR is non-linear for both mixtures (REF and SLT) in function of granular material addition.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
