Influence of Granulometry of the Small Aggregate on the Permeability of Wall Cement Coating
Descrição
Abstract— The performance of the vertical sealing elements is determined by the level of protection to which
they are subjected. Construction processes are changing and cementitious coatings are increasingly taking place
among current construction options. On the other hand, the weather has its increasingly aggressive and more
evident incidence. The performance standard sets the guidelines for seal manufacturers to meet expected quality
standards. Given the above comes the importance of evaluating the best particle size composition to obtain the
ideal mortar manufacture. Water transport mechanisms are the actors in this permeability process with the
effective participation of diffusion and capillarity. The present study proposes observations about the water
absorption of cementitious coatings manufactured with three sand granulometry (fine aggregate). The mixture
containing the fine sand obtained the lowest absorption while the mixture with the highest grain size presented
the highest absorption and the highest flow rates.
Keywords— Particle size, permeability and performance
