New Building Elements Made out of Recycled Materials for Economical Housing
This work comes into being as a result of the search for “new materials” to manufacture building elements for low income housing. These materials (peanut husk and polyethylene) are recycled out of agricultural and industrial residue and replace the madder and tick sand of common concrete agglomerated with Portland Cement.
This recycling process meets three intentions: to lower costs, to make the environment-contaminating waste useful and to generate jobs for an unemployed and non-qualified labor force. This is, in consequence, an economical, ecological, socially-oriented proposal.
