Mechanical analysis of concrete produced with cdw aggregates associated with the use of bamboo

In the current scenario, it is necessary to develop sustainable constructive practices. The use of Construction and Demolition Waste (CDW) is an alternative to minimize the environmental impacts caused by civil construction, because, in addition to exploiting many resources, this industry generates a lot of waste. In contrast, it is observed that there is a decrease in the compressive strength of concretes produced with CDW. In this sense, bamboo appears as a possibility to mitigate these losses, in view of its high mechanical resistance.
