Southern Santa Catarina State (Brazil) provides the context for this study of mortar mechanical properties. Tests were conducted using wastes collected from three industries, with mortars produced with 10% substitution and addition relative to cement mass. The work by Elen Machado de Oliveira analyzes compressive and tensile strengths using an experimental design of mixtures.
Use Cases
- Predicting mortar compressive strength based on waste type and substitution percentage.
- Comparing the mechanical performance of mortars with different industrial waste sources.
- Statistical analysis of the influence of waste composition on tensile strength.
- Evaluating the feasibility of cement substitution with red-ceramic waste for recycling applications.
Strengths
- Data is derived from a structured experimental design of mixtures.
- Waste samples were characterized from three distinct industries.
- Analysis includes both compressive and tensile strength measurements.
Limitations
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to the three sampled industries in southern Brazil.
