Pavimentos de hormigón prefabricado

Tesis (Ingeniero Constructor)Esta investigación nace de observar el masivo uso que tienen los pavimentos de hormigón prefabricado y el nivel de conocimiento que se tiene acerca de ellos. Muchas empresas elaboran adocretos y pastelones, son menos las que fabrican baldosas. Para los dos primeros no existe una Norma Chilena Oficial, pero para las baldosas sí la hay. La investigación presenta como debería realizarse la prefabricación de elementos con procesos y componentes. Posteriormente se analizan en forma particular adocretos, baldosas y pastelones. Finalmente se realizan diversos ensayes de laboratorio al elemento pastelón liso gris 40x40x4 [cm], obtenido como muestra en la visita a varias empresas prefabricadoras, verificando de forma práctica la gran diferencia que existe entre los productos finales de las empresas investigadas.This investigation has born from the observation of the massive use that prefabricated pavements of concrete has and of the level of knowledge that people has about them. Many companies makes paving block and large cement tile, less are those who make floor tiles. The first two doesn't have any Official Chilean Norma, but for the floor tiles it does exists. First of all the investigation presents how should be the know how of prefabrication of elements with all its components and processes. Later on the paving block, floor tiles and large cement tile are analyzed separately. Finally there were made diverse laboratory tests at the flat gray large cement tile 40x40x4 [cm), obtained as sample in the visit to several prefabricated companies, verifying in a practical way the great difference that exists among the final products of the investigated companies
