Resumo(s)
Polymers are manufactured in large scale; however, their recycling does not reach large proportions
in countries like Brazil. This material can be incorporated into products used in civil construction, as
this sector has been standing out in the use of waste, reducing the consumption of natural resources.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate substitution of natural aggregate by plastic waste in pavers to
decrease the amount of waste in landfills. Dimensional evaluation, water absorption tests, compressive
strength and abrasion strength were carried out. According to analyses carried out, the pavers with
plastic did not reach values for the compression required in Brazilian norms, however, it is suggested that
the strength found is suitable for walkways. In addition, the environmental advantages of using plastic as
a fine aggregate in the pavers was evaluated.
