Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to study about Fly ash Cement Bricks which are manufactured by composition of Fly ash, cement and sand with requisite quantity of water mixed in proper proportions. These bricks are comparatively lighter in weight and stronger than the ordinary clay bricks. The Fly ash is one of the major byproduct of thermal power plants, 1kg of coal on burning produces about 200 to 500gms of Fly ash. Thus, Fly ash is very easily available which can be used to manufacture Fly ash bricks as a substitute of ordinary clay bricks which could lead to reduce the environmental pollution and help in conserving natural resources.
