Description

A GRAVESTONE Technical Area The invention relates to a tomb lid. State of the Art When the known state of the technique is examined, it is seen that traditionally in the production of tomb lids... Standard cement-based concrete or natural stone, especially marble, is commonly used. Although these traditional production methods have been widely practiced for many years, This also brings with it a number of technical and practical limitations. In the production of classic concrete-based tomb lids, mold filling, setting time, and Due to the curing stages, the daily production capacity is approximately 45 to 50 units, which is quite limited. This is limited to a certain extent; this situation negatively affects productivity at the mass production scale. This has an impact. The average unit weight of these products is between 70 and 80 kilograms. These values ​​fluctuate within this range, increasing transportation costs and impacting the field. This complicates assembly and transportation processes. In traditional reinforced concrete applications, steel or iron reinforcement elements are placed in formwork. Installing it requires additional labor, time loss, and process control. This situation This both increases production costs and ensures quality consistency under mass production conditions. This makes things more difficult. Also, traditional concrete or natural stone-based grave lids, High unit weights cause practical problems during transportation, handling and assembly. is giving birth. The use of natural stone, especially marble, is hampered by high material costs, processing difficulties, and This leads to similar logistical constraints due to the significantly high unit weight. In conclusion, due to the negative aspects described above and the current solutions being the subject of discussion... Due to its shortcomings, an improvement is needed in the relevant technical field. It has been made. 2 Purpose of the Invention The invention was created by drawing inspiration from existing situations and overcoming the aforementioned drawbacks. It aims to solve the problem. The main purpose of the invention is to replace traditional cement-based concrete or natural stone products. The high product weight observed in tomb lids, the difficulty of transportation and assembly, Labor costs and manufacturing process complexity resulting from the use of steel / reinforcement The goal is to resolve problems such as these. For this purpose, the invention involves a macroscopic structure that has been lightened by one or more lightweight aggregates. tomb lid made of a special concrete mixture reinforced with synthetic fibers It is related to this. Macro synthetic fibers are three-dimensional and homogeneous within the concrete matrix. By dispersing, it serves as an alternative reinforcement function to traditional steel / iron reinforcement. This allows the tomb lid to be placed with flexibility, without the need for reinforcement. It gains a structure that is improved in terms of impact resistance and durability. The concrete composition envisioned by the invention can replace traditional heavy natural aggregates or These contain at least one lightweight aggregate that can be used in conjunction with them. This lightweight aggregate... aggregate; pumice, expanded clay, expanded perlite, expanded shale, expanded slate, foamed glass granules, slag-based lightweight aggregate or similar low-density material It can be selected from mineral-based aggregates. Lightweight aggregate pumice is preferred in a construction. It is an aggregate. This preference is for a unit weight of 35-40 kilograms instead of 70-80 kilograms. This makes it possible to reduce it to a certain range. This value is approximately the same as with the current technique. This corresponds to a 50% weight reduction; thus lowering the product's transportation costs. and allows field personnel to easily lower it and move and position it. He knows. The elimination of traditional steel reinforcement applications is another benefit provided by the invention. This constitutes a significant technical advantage. It is essential in classical reinforced concrete production. The process of placing rebar inside the mold both prolongs the production process and reduces the need for manpower. This makes them dependent. However, the invention involves a mixture of macro-synthetic fibers. a monolithic and homogeneous reinforced structure obtained by incorporating it into the concrete during the process, This completely disables this process step. This affects the production process. This directly contributes to simplification and reduction of in-process variability. 3 The reflection of these technical specifications as a whole in the product structure, production It also creates an improvement in capacity. Setting time and curing conditions. The daily production capacity of this tomb cover, based on this optimized concrete composition, is... Going far beyond the 45-50 unit limit achievable with traditional methods, between 2000 and It can reach a level of 3000 units. This capacity increase is suitable for mass production. This represents a qualitative leap in production per unit compared to the current technology. This also paves the way for a significant reduction in costs. The structural and characteristic features and all the advantages of the invention are given in the figures below. This becomes clearer thanks to the detailed explanation written with references to these figures. This will be understood, and therefore the evaluation should also take these forms and detailed explanations into consideration. It needs to be done by taking precautions. Detailed Description of the Invention This detailed explanation describes the preferred constructions of the tomb lid that is the subject of the invention. This explanation is provided solely to facilitate a better understanding of the subject. The lightweight and crack-resistant tomb developed as part of the invention. tomb cover; tomb cover with increased flexibility and durability; cement-based concrete a monolithic cover body consisting of a matrix, units within the aforementioned cover body at least one lightweight aggregate distributed in a way that will reduce its bulk weight, and the aforementioned cover. will serve as an alternative reinforcement to traditional steel / iron reinforcement within the body. macrosynthetic fibers are three-dimensionally and homogeneously distributed within the concrete matrix. It contains fiber. Cement, which forms the carrier binder phase of the tomb lid, is in the composite mixture. It acts as a continuous matrix that holds the aggregate and fiber components together. Water, added to the mixture along with the cement, allows the hydration reaction to occur. By providing this, it prepares the ground for the concrete matrix to gain strength. Water-cement This ratio is a direct determinant of the product's processability and ultimate strength properties. It has an effect. The first distinguishing feature of the tomb lid is the traditional heavy material within the concrete matrix. This involves using at least one lightweight aggregate in place of or in conjunction with the aggregates. Aggregate reduces the unit weight of the concrete matrix thanks to its low specific gravity. and reduces the total weight of the tomb lid. Pumice is preferred as a lightweight aggregate. 4 as can be done, expanded clay, expanded perlite, expanded shale, expanded slate, foamed glass granules, lightweight slag aggregate, or similar low-density material. Aggregates can also be used. One preferred construction method uses lightweight aggregate pumice. The weight reduction achieved with this invention means that the unit weight of the tomb lid is lower than that of traditional concrete. The observed range for essential products has shifted from 70-80 kilograms to 35-40 kilograms. This is evident in its decline. The porous structure of pumice aggregate is also thermal. It reduces conductivity and allows the product to be classified as a lightweight building material. This provides unique physical characteristics. This weight advantage makes the tomb lid suitable for transport. and significantly reduces labor and equipment requirements in field applications; It increases the efficiency of logistics processes. Key elements that improve the mechanical behavior and service life of a tomb lid. One is a macro synthetic fiber component. It is a polymer-based synthetic reinforcement material. Macro synthetic fibers are distributed three-dimensionally and homogeneously within the concrete matrix. This macro-synthetic material provides flexibility and durability to the cap body. Fibers provide reinforcement that can replace traditional steel or iron reinforcement elements. This is seen. Thus, there is no need to place additional reinforcing steel inside the formwork, against mechanical stresses that occur during transport, stacking, assembly and use A more durable and flexible cover structure is obtained. Homogeneous distribution of macro synthetic fiber in the mixture, unlike conventional steel reinforcement. This allows the applications to be extracted from the structure of the tomb lid. In traditional concrete products, formwork is used to ensure mechanical strength and integrity. the reinforcing steel elements placed inside, additional processing steps and workmanship in the production process This requires. In this invention, this reinforcement function is provided by a macro-synthetic fiber. It is undertaken at the mixture level and in a distributed manner; thus, it constitutes a structural reinforcement element. This eliminates the need for steel reinforcement. Macro synthetic fiber, available in all sizes. and in all diameters, macro-sized polypropylene or polypropylene derivative raw materials are produced from polypropylene or polypropylene derivative raw materials. It can be reinforced with synthetic fibers. The tomb lid is shaped using a molding system. The molding system is made of composite material. It enables the concrete mixture to solidify to the desired size and geometry in mass production. It has a structure adapted to the conditions. Sufficient under accelerated curing conditions. Once the tomb lid has reached the required strength, it is separated from the molding system and stored away. It is being prepared for shipment. The low unit weight provided by pumice aggregate and The reinforcement function provided by macro synthetic fiber at the blend level is combined. When evaluated, the daily production capacity of tomb lids is traditional Exceeding the limit of 45-50 units achievable with these methods, reaching 2000 to 3000 units. It appears that it has been able to reach this level. This capacity is due to the known limitations of the current technique. Compared to traditional mass production, this represents a qualitative transformation on a scale.
