Análisis del comportamiento mecánico del mortero de pega en función de las dosificaciones por proporción establecidas en el título D de la NSR-10

Abstract

This investigation evaluated mortars for unit masonry elaborated in the most used conditions in our midst, these mortars were elaborated from different dosages shaped by cement Portland as the only cementitious material and as aggregate we used two types of sands available in the Bogota city; we analyzed the quality of these aggregates (sands) and the factors that influence in the mechanical properties in solid condition that present these mortars (compressive strength); we compared the results with the normative requirements exposed in the title D.3.4 of the NSR-10 for mortars for unit masonry. Also, this investigation evaluated the variation of the compressive strength the mortars for unit masonry in function to the type of specimen used, because the NSR-10 allows the use of two types of specimen (cubic and cylindrical).
