Abstract

As we all know that the waste from the industries is very harmful for the environment as well as to our health, if not disposed in proper manner. The residue of manufactured sand (M-sand) after washing are present in enormous quantity. The M-sand residue however used to fill the basement, major quantity of the material is still disposed into the water bodies as waste. The aim of this research is to avoid the wastage of M-sand and to partially replace the content of fly ash with the various % of residue obtained from the m-sand in the fly ash brick and also to determine the optimum % of residue for better results. After the full manufacturing process the bricks are tested in the laboratory and results are analyzed regarding the water absorption and compressive strength. The objective of this research is to make economical and to reduce the fly ash content in bricks to maintain environmental balance and avoid problem of waste disposal. It was also expected that bricks must be lighter in weight, energy efficient and meet compressive strength requirements of IS 1077:199.
