Este papel desarrolla las premisas para considerar la utilización del polietileno de ultra-alto peso molecular UHMWPE puro y proveniente de reciclado según normativa europea, como una alternativa viable al empleo de acero estructural en armaduras de hormigón. Desde las normativas europeas encaminadas a la promoción del empleo de plásticos en una economía circular, se potencian las actuaciones de reciclado de este material en todos los ámbitos y sectores susceptibles de aprovechamiento de su reutilización. Para ello, es fundamental analizar las posibilidades de este material en construcción desde un punto de vista estructural, que derivarán en la utilización del mismo como alternativa a materiales tradicionales.
Abstract
This paper develops the premises for considering the use of pure ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene UHMWPE from recycling according to European regulations, as a viable alternative to the use of structural steel in concrete reinforcement. European regulations aimed at promoting the use of plastics in a circular economy encourage the recycling of this material in all areas and sectors that are susceptible to reuse. To this end, it is essential to analyse the possibilities of this material in construction from a structural point of view, which will lead to its use as an alternative to traditional materials.
