Efecto de cerámica triturada como sustitución del agregado grueso en trabajabilidad, compresión, flexión de un concreto f’c = 280 kg/cm²

The development of construction projects involves the use of various materials, of which the most commonly used is concrete due to its properties. Quarries are required for the production of concrete to extract aggregates. Therefore, the objective of this research was to evaluate the effects on the workability, compression, and flexure of concrete with a yield strength of 280 kg/cm2 by replacing coarse aggregate with crushed ceramic. The purpose was to take advantage of construction waste, as this ceramic waste is often disposed of in landfills, generating environmental pollution. The methodology applied was quantitative, applied, and experimental. The samples prepared were 63 cylindrical specimens for compression tests and 63 beam-type specimens for flexure tests. Replacing the coarse aggregate with crushed ceramic in sizes of 10 mm and 3/8 ". In percentages of 12%, 15% and 18%. Concluding that it has a positive effect on the properties of the concrete, with 18% replacement of crushed ceramic and size of 3/8 ", a compressive strength of 440.62 kg / cm2 and 105.61 kg / cm2 of flexural strength was obtained.
