The development of the construction industry in Banyuwangi has very rapid. This can be seen from the high-rise building construction projects such as hotels and others. Banyuwangi has located in a coastal area, this gives a signal that consideration of lateral loads that may occur is necessary. One of them is earthquake load which has a higher concept and building weight, so the greater the earthquake load received. So, we need the use of lightweight structural elements such as the use of lightweight aggregates. This requires innovation, which in this case was used fly ash in making lightweight mortars that were applied to non-structural elements such as lightweight bricks. Proportion that has been done in previous studies. In this follow-up research focused on the design of tools used to treat mortars in order to have good quality. Results of this study found the design of the steam curing device and the results of the mortar test. The mortar test results with tools could be have compression test a maximum of 7.47 MPa, with treatment on 70 degree C for six hours. These results have a better value when compared to the value of mortar on lightweight bricks on the market.
