Thermal Characterization of Concrete and Cement Mortar from Construction Sites and Industrial Production Units in the City of Ouagadougou with a View to Standardization in Energy Certification

The present study allowed to carry out a thermal characterization of concrete and cement mortar. Thermal tests were carried with the KD2 Pro device, on mortar samples taken from twenty-six (26) construction sites office buildings two (2) industrial production units in city Ouagadougou. rectangular specimens after four weeks (4) conservation site or materials. This seeks determine properties materials, particular conductivity, diffusivity capacity samples, real conditions execution environment. conductivity varies 1.413 1.965 W/m·K, 0.940 - 1.658 W/m·K 0.703 1.149 respectively for concrete, cinder block plaster Regarding other properties, especially diffusivity, values vary respectively, 1070.59 1974.67 kJ/kg·K (3.74 6.70) × 10-7 m2/s 1123.69 1586.81 (3.38 5.65) 1202.51 1736.01 (3.82 7.36) building blocks. 1.019 1.229 792.18 1862.58 J/kg·K (2.75 6.80) m2/s, respectively. Only correlations made between density mortar, give good relations namely R2 = 0.9308 0.7823 0.9272 diffusivity. contributes establishment regulation Burkina Faso adoption West African Economic Monetary Union (WAEMU) Directive 05 energy efficiency buildings.
