    La adición de bolsas plásticas en la elaboración de bloques de adobe para viviendas unifamiliares y su efecto en la variación de temperatura y acondicionamiento acústico en el cantón Ambato, provincia de Tungurahua
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Civil, 2019) Cabay Cepeda, Sandra Rocío; Núñez Aldás, Galo Wilfrido
    The present investigation intends to evaluate the use of plastic bags in the manufacture of blocks of adobe, with the objective of determining the thermal variation and the acoustic conditioning; for this analysis, dosages were established with the addition of 5%, 10% and 15% of crushed plastic bags, independently of the adobe elaborated in the traditional way, which were evaluated in the form of a panel using a hermetic chamber, which by means of the use of equipment The insulating properties of each block were determined. To validate the proposed tests, a comparison was made between traditional adobe; and the adobe blocks with the addition of plastic bags, which exceeded the insulating properties of the traditional block, both in the faces of the wall, and in the environments. In addition, the acoustic properties were evaluated, which presented favorable results, with a direct relationship with the addition of plastic bags, and achieving a comfortable indoor environment, in the face of external noise. Similarly, the compressive strength of adobes presented higher values than the one stated in the E0.80 standard, but when the percentage of plastic bags increased to 15%, this factor decreased, whereas the adobe block added 10%. of plastic bags presented greater thermal and acoustic insulation capacity; together with a resistance of 12.19 kg /cm2, keeping the three parameters in balance, and complying with the provisions of the regulations, so that it can be applied in future studies.
