Fly ash bricks can be extremely used in all buildings constructional activities similar to that of common burnt clay bricks. The fly ash bricks are comparatively lighter weight and stronger than common clay bricks. Since fly ash is being accumulated as waste material in large quantity near thermal power plants and creating serious environmental problems, its utilization as main raw materials in the manufacturer of bricks will not opportunities for its proper and useful disposal but also helps in environment pollution control to greater extent in the surrounding areas of power plants. The main intention is burnt clay bricks we are using instead of that we have use alternate fly ash brick.  The burnt clay bricks have to be used means digging of the gravel good soli has to be removed. The above problems can be reduced some extent by using fly ash bricks. Some of the properties of bricks are compressive strength and water absorption.

Abstract


Fly ash bricks can be extremely used in all buildings constructional activities similar to that of common burnt clay bricks. The fly ash bricks are comparatively lighter weight and stronger than common clay bricks. Since fly ash is being accumulated as waste material in large quantity near thermal power plants and creating serious environmental problems, its utilization as main raw materials in the manufacturer of bricks will not opportunities for its proper and useful disposal but also helps in environment pollution control to greater extent in the surrounding areas of power plants. The main intention is burnt clay bricks we are using instead of that we have use alternate fly ash brick.  The burnt clay bricks have to be used means digging of the gravel good soli has to be removed. The above problems can be reduced some extent by using fly ash bricks. Some of the properties of bricks are compressive strength and water absorption.
