Fig. 6.2 Example of water absorption curves of mortars with volumetric ratios of 1:4, 1:5, and 1:6 [1].

The incorporation of wastes in mortars modifies their porosity and consequently their water absorption. In the following figures (Figs. 6.4–6.7), the development of the water absorption over time of mortars with incorporation of wastes, based on the different literature studies, is represented. In the studies presented next, the absorption by capillarity was evaluated in mortars' semiprisms that were cut in half for the test (80 × 40 × 40 mm). The specimens were sealed on the side faces to guarantee the capillary absorption and the sawn face was put in contact with water, as illustrated in Fig. 6.3. The development of these curves depends on the type of waste incorporated.
