Análisis comparativo de las escayolas reforzadas con ffbras para la elaboración de prefabricados

Abstract

Gypsum is a material that has been widely used since ancient times in building and industrial construction. Due to the great development of prefabricated construction in the last years, diverse authors have tried to improve the properties of plaster panels and boards through its composition variations. The aim of this study is to determine what type of ffbre, among the most used in plaster mixing ones, presents better properties to be used in prefabricated elements. For this, ffve types of ffbres were used: two natural (wood and straw) and thee synthetic (glass, basalt and polypropylene), performing all the tests according to the standard UNE-EN 132792:2006. The conclusions show after statistical analysis that ffberglass presents better results for its application in the production of gypsum prefabricated panels and boards.
