Resumo

The concept of functionally graded materials (FGM) has been successfully applied in the development of many advanced cement-based composites. In the fiber-cement sector, however, little attention has been given to this approach. In this paper, the mechanical behavior of corrugated asbestos-free (AF) fiber cement and asbestos-cement (AC) sheets are compared, and the FGM concept is used to improve the production cost and mechanical performance of corrugated asbestos-free (AF) fiber-cement products compared to asbestos-cement sheets. A loaded AF sheet was modeled using the finite element method to assess and develop strategies for improving its mechanical performance, leading to the linking of FGM and Hatschek technologies to locally address performance issues. Tensile tests indicated that the AF fiber-cement sheets initially crack at stresses about 50% lower than AC sheets. The FEM models, in turn, indicated that the flat regions between the crowns and valleys of the corrugated sheet are only subject to low intensity stresses under bending and wind loadings. In this work, instead, we propose the application of fibrous mixtures between layers of corrugated fiber-cement sheets as an alternative strategy for controlling the distribution of fibers along Hatschek-made corrugated sheets. In preliminary tests conducted on a pre-industrial scale, the application of extrudable fibrous cementitious mixtures between the layers of Hatschek-made AF fiber-cement sheets resulted in an approximately 10% increase in the limit of proportionality and modulus of rupture. The results indicate that the proposed technique presents an excellent potential to produce functionally graded corrugated sheets whose fiber contents and mechanical strengths are controlled locally.
