[EN] Pumice is a volcanic rock, which can be found in many parts of the world. Specifically, San Juan is a very arid area of Argentina with abundance of a type of pumice, “pomeca”. This is a poor area with a low quality housing for the poorest sectors, no reaching, in many cases, the minimum standards of habitability and comfort. It has been shown in other studies that pumice, as a volcanic rock with pozzolanic properties, can be used as an additive to cement to make both mortar and concrete, thus reducing the consumption of energy and resources, promoting regeneration of seismic disaster areas and boosting the local economy and social integration. In this paper it has been studied the physical and chemical properties of a sample of “pome...
