Resum: | Due to the low density of the aggregates and the longer mixing times, lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC) is susceptible to segregation of the aggregates. Several studies have proposed different methods to estimate the segregation of concrete because segregation affects strength and durability in structures. Image analysis techniques have become very popular for quickly analysing different materials and, together with the widespread use of mobile applications, can make it much easier for engineers to obtain parameters that identify concrete segregation. The aim of this work was the development of a mobile application to photograph the section of a concrete specimen and indicate the segregation values. A simple, fast, and effective application was implemented, and the results were validated with other previously published results, which can facilitate the task of engineers and researchers to determine the segregation of concrete. |
