description This paper analyzes the feasibility of reusing a red clay brick waste (RCBW) in order to produce building elements such as blocks, pavers and tiles, by using the technique of alkaline activation. The production of these building elements was based on the design of a hybrid mortar with 48.61 MPa of compressive strength, at 28 curing days at room temperature (25 °C). The hybrid mortar was synthesized by adding 10% by weight of Portland cement (OPC) to the RCBW, Red Clay Brick Waste. As alkaline activators were used commercial industrial grade sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and sodium silicate (Na2SiO3). Building elements were physically and mechanically characterized, according to Colombian Technical Standards (NTC). This technology process is presented as an alternative for the reuse of RCBW and its contribution to the environmental sustainability.

Se analiza la viabilidad de utilizar los residuos de ladrillo de arcilla roja (RL) para producir elementos constructivos, tipo bloque, adoquín y teja, mediante la técnica de activación alcalina. La producción de los elementos constructivos se basó en el desarrollo de un mortero híbrido de 48.61 MPa de resistencia a la compresión a los 28 días de curado a temperatura ambiente (25 °C). Para la síntesis del mortero híbrido se utilizó un porcentaje de adición de cemento portland (OPC) del 10 % en peso con respecto al RL. Como activadores alcalinos se usaron hidróxido de sodio (NaOH) grado industrial y silicato sódico comercial (Na2SiO3). Los elementos constructivos fueron caracterizados tanto física como mecánicamente de acuerdo con las normas técnicas colombianas (NTC). Se plantea este proceso como una alternativa de utilización de los RL y un aporte a la sostenibilidad ambiental.
