ARIEL LEON, NILSON; ROJAS REYES, NÉSTOR RICARDO; UMBARILA SUAREZ, BERNARDO  y  BUSTAMANTE R., M. OSWALDO. EXPERIMENTAL EVALUATION OF SILICON - CALCAREOUS UNITS FROM BLAST FURNACE SLAG AND HYDRAULIC LIME FOR MASONRY. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2009, vol.76, n.160, pp.247-254. ISSN 0012-7353.

The present paper studies the possibility of making silicon-calcareous elements for masonry from two types of raw material like the blast furnace slag and hydraulic limes. In the present study some physical properties of samples made according to the Norma Técnica Colombiana with the previously mentioned materials were evaluated for 5 types of mixtures that vary among 10% and 50% of lime. The results show that the silicon -calcareous brick manufacture is feasible for masonry that fulfills the NTC 922.

Palabras clave : Silicon - calcareous bricks; by-product use; slag of blast furnace; hydraulic lime; ecological bricks.
