Diseño de prototipo de revestimiento de cartón reciclado para tabiques interiores

Abstract

This research aimed to develop a cladding panel suitable for use in housing, and tests were conducted on various materials such as cardboard, resin, and fiber. Evaluations of flexion, compression, water absorption, and density were performed on these materials. The results indicated that the golden resin and wood shavings demonstrated superior performance in terms of flexion and compression, respectively. Additionally, it was observed that the gold resin had the lowest water absorption rate, while the liquefied cardboard proved to be the lightest material in terms of density. These two alternatives were chosen for manufacturing the cladding panel, with the golden resin considered ideal for social areas and the colored cardboard as a suitable option for private spaces. Realistic representations were generated to illustrate how this material would look in the intended areas. Furthermore, a comparative cost analysis was conducted to assess the panel's competitiveness in the construction market.
