Comparative Investigation On Clay Bricks And Fly Ash Bricks

This paper presents clay and Fly Ash brick properties, manufacturing process material required for preparing the clay bricks and fly ash bricks as per Indian standard code provisions, inspection and quality control. Use of this additive could have practical implications as a means of recycling and for achieving cost savings in brick production. The bricks with Fly Ash were very similar to that of clay bricks. The absorption coefficient, shape and size, density, weight and compressive strength of Fly Ash bricks compare with normal clay bricks that delivered good results. It is found that compressive strength of the fly ash brick increased when compared to normal brick by more than two times. From our study, it can be concluded that Fly Ash bricks used as an alternative to clay bricks
