Concrete prepared with rain water as an environmental contribution from the construction

This article describes the preparation of concrete using rain water and its performance compared with those elaborated with conventional drinking water. The samples made were studied in terms of resistance to compressive stress at ages of 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 and 90 days, also analyzing their microst...

description This article describes the preparation of concrete using rain water and its performance compared with those elaborated with conventional drinking water. The samples made were studied in terms of resistance to compressive stress at ages of 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 and 90 days, also analyzing their microstructure by electronic microscopy scanning (EMS) and characterizing the water involved by a certified laboratory. After analyzing the results, it looks likely that the construction of the concrete can be done in a more thoughtful way regarding the use of water resources, without sacrificing its mechanical, stability and aesthetic qualities. In turn, may be thought the possibility to establish a practice that can be replicated in the Colombian context.

Se aborda la confección del concreto con aguas lluvia y se compara su desempeño con respecto a los elaborados con agua potabilizada, empleada convencionalmente. Las muestras confeccionadas se estudiaron en cuanto a la resistencia al esfuerzo a compresión a edades de 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 y 90 días, analizando también su microestructura por medio de microscopía de barrido electrónico (SEM) y caracterizando el agua involucrada mediante laboratorio certificado. Luego de analizar los resultados, se ve factible que la confección del concreto puede hacerse de modo más racional en cuanto a la utilización del recurso hídrico, sin sacrificar sus cualidades mecánicas, estéticas y de estabilidad. A su vez, se contempla la posibilidad de establecer una práctica que pueda ser replicable en el contexto colombiano.
