Abstract The glass cutting industry is responsible for generating large quantities
of waste, during the stages of cutting and polishing. The disposal of this material
generates a cost to the company, thus looking for ways to repackage it, so there is
the possibility of incorporating it into the adhesive mortar. The objective of this
work is the characterization of waste and assessment of the properties of these
mortars, fresh, and check the possibility of their use. As for the characterization,
were carried out particle size testing, density and pozzolanic activity, for the fresh
state were performed tests of air content, water retention consistency and entrained
particular index. Were incorporated 0, 10, 15 and 20% of the amount of sand. The
results showed that the material on display has potential for use in adhesive mortar,
with values within the limits stipulated by Brazilian standards.
