• Deformation Recovery of Reinforced Concrete Beams Made With Recycled Coarse Aggregates 

      Seara Paz, Sindy; González-Fonteboa, Belén; Martínez-Abella, Fernando; Eiras López, Javier (Elsevier, 2022)
      [Abstract] The purpose of this research is to analyse the long-term deformations of reinforced concrete beams made of recycled coarse aggregates (RCA), using four different replacement ratios, 0%, 20%, 50% and 100%. For ...
    • Estimating Adaptive Setpoint Temperatures Using Weather Stations 

      Bienvenido Huertas, José David; Rubio-Bellido, Carlos; Pérez Ordóñez, Juan Luis; Martínez-Abella, Fernando (MDPI, 2019)
      [Abstract] Reducing both the energy consumption and CO2 emissions of buildings is nowadays one of the main objectives of society. The use of heating and cooling equipment is among the main causes of energy consumption. ...
    • Influence of the Mixing Procedure on the Fresh State Behaviour of Recycled Mortars 

      González-Fonteboa, Belén; González-Taboada, Iris; Carro-López, Diego; Martínez-Abella, Fernando (Elsevier, 2021)
      [Abstract] The effect of two different mixing protocols on the fresh-state behaviour of self-compacting mortars with and without recycled sand was compared. For this purpose, the mortar mixes were designed considering three ...
    • Mussel shell mortars durability: Study of aggregate replacement limit 

      Martínez-García, Carolina; González-Fonteboa, Belén; Carro-López, Diego; Martínez-Abella, Fernando (Elsevier, 2023-12-12)
      [Abstract]: The knowledge acquired through previous experimental phases with coating mortars with mussel shell aggregates led to conclude that irregular, flaky and hydrophobic particles of the mussel shell and the organic ...
